"Fellow Daoist Fuxi, Fellow Daoist Nuwa, I didn't expect you two to come as well." Jumang greeted the two with a smile.

The two stepped forward and returned the greeting.

"Greetings, Fellow Daoist Jumang. My brother and I were traveling through the prehistoric world when we heard that the Wu Clan had opened its gates to recruit talented individuals. Out of curiosity, we concealed our cultivation and came to see for ourselves. We just witnessed the earth-shattering three axe blows of the Great Witch Xingtian, which truly broadened our horizons. The profound heritage of the Wu Clan is truly admirable," Fuxi said with a smile, neither humble nor arrogant.

Looking at Bai Ze, Fuxi, Nuwa, and several other equally extraordinary innate deities before him, Jumang's heart stirred slightly, and he went straight to the point, asking:

"Fellow Daoists, you are all renowned innate deities in the primordial world, possessing great fortune and wisdom. Now that you have gathered here at Mount Buzhou, I wonder if you all intend to join the newly established 'Hall of Elders' of my Wu Clan?"

At this point, Jumang paused, his tone revealing a powerful confidence and charisma: "Fellow Daoists, if you are willing to join, there is no need for any tests or assessments. The doors of my Wu Clan's Elder Hall are always open to you! Entering my Elder Hall will not only allow you to share in the blessings of Pangu's legacy from Buzhou Mountain, but also to sit and discuss the Dao with us, the Ancestral Witches, and comprehend the ultimate principles of heaven and earth. What do you all think?"

After these words were spoken, the air fell silent for a moment.

Fuxi and Nuwa nodded with smiles without hesitation. The two siblings—or rather, Fuxi—had come specifically to join the Wu clan.

Bai Ze, who was standing at the very front, narrowed his eyes slightly.

His eyes, which seemed to see through everything in the world, gleamed with wisdom.

He did not answer Jumang's question about whether he was willing to join the Elder Hall. Instead, he slowly lowered his gaze to the Great Luo rogue cultivators below, whose cultivation levels varied and who were now looking up at them expectantly.

Bai Ze smiled slightly, gently waving his feather fan, and asked, "I appreciate the Ancestral Witch's hospitality. However... I have a question in my mind. The Ancestral Witch is willing to open the door of convenience for us innate saints, but I wonder, how does the Ancestral Witch intend to arrange things for these Great Luo rogue cultivators below?"

Upon hearing Bai Ze's question, Ju Mang was slightly taken aback.

He followed Bai Ze's gaze and saw that the rogue cultivators below were all holding their breath, their eyes filled with trepidation, anticipation, and a hint of barely concealed inferiority.

These rogue cultivators were all Great Luo Golden Immortals.

In Ju Mang's mind, the rules set by his elder brother Tian Xuan when he established the Elder Hall subconsciously came to mind.

Tianxuan once clearly stated that the Elder Hall of the Witch Clan was intended for innate deities, and he had not said how to deal with these Great Luo Golden Immortals.

Or should we just drive them all away?

Thinking of this, Jumang was about to speak, but the words stopped abruptly at the last second.

"Bai Ze is known for his knowledge of all things and his unparalleled wisdom. Since he asked this question in front of everyone at this time, it was definitely not a casual question, nor was it a baseless one."

"Since that's the case..."

He looked at Bai Ze with a hint of a smile in his eyes and asked in return, "Our Wu Clan has just established its Elder Hall, and many of its rules are still being explored. Fellow Daoist Bai Ze is a universally acknowledged sage in the prehistoric world. I wonder if you have any insightful opinions on this matter? Jumang is all ears."

When Bai Ze heard that Ju Mang didn't answer but instead asked him a question, he already guessed what Ju Mang was thinking, but he didn't point it out.

Bai Ze put away his feather fan, and his expression became serious. He looked around, his gaze sweeping over the anxious rogue cultivators, before finally settling on Ju Mang again.

"I dare not presume to offer my profound insights, but I do have a few humble opinions that I would like to discuss with the Ancestral Witch."

"Ze believes that all things in the primordial world possess a destiny. Although the individual destiny of these rogue cultivators is not as great as that of us innate deities, the fact that they have been able to attain the Great Luo realm indicates that their own destiny must be extremely abundant. Just imagine, if the destiny of these Great Luo Golden Immortals were gathered together in one place, what a vast and terrifying destiny it would be!"

If the Wu tribe can harness this fortune for their own use, it will undoubtedly bring immeasurable benefits to their future development.

Jumang's eyes lit up. The Ancestral Witches had already witnessed the benefits of abundant fortune. If they could take the fortune of these Great Luo Golden Immortals into their possession, their speed of comprehending the laws would definitely be much faster.

Seeing that Jumang had taken his words to heart, Bai Ze continued, "However, these Great Luo Immortals are of varying quality. If we were to accept them all as elders alongside the Innate Saints, it would not only be difficult to manage, but it would also make the Elder Hall of the Witch Clan seem to have too low a threshold, thus losing its authority. Therefore, Bai Ze suggests that the Ancestral Witch Lord might as well divide the elders of this Elder Hall into two categories."

"Oh? Divided into two categories? Fellow Daoist Bai Ze, please explain in detail." Ju Mang immediately became interested and leaned forward slightly.

"Exactly." Bai Ze tapped his feather fan lightly. "Firstly, there are first-class elders, also known as 'core elders.' This rank is specially set up for innate deities like Fellow Daoist Fuxi and Fellow Daoist Nuwa, whose cultivation is extraordinary and whose fortune is at its peak. The status of first-class elders is as revered as rumored. They do not have to bear complicated worldly affairs, but they are required to offer advice and provide strong support when the Wu Clan faces major choices or life-or-death situations."

"Secondly, there are the second-class elders, who are specifically set up for these rogue cultivators at the Great Luo Golden Immortal level below. After entering the hall, they can receive the protection of the Wu Clan, listen to the teachings of the Ancestral Witches, and even receive cultivation resources bestowed by the Wu Clan. In return, they must follow the orders of the Wu Clan, guard the four directions and expand the territory for the Wu Clan, and undertake various practical tasks in the operation of the Wu Clan."

At this point, Bai Ze paused, "However, the law should not be passed on lightly, and positions should not be granted lightly. These positions of second-class elders must be left vacant rather than filled with unqualified individuals! They must never be accepted into the inner circle indiscriminately."

"The Great Dao is three thousand, the ultimate number, the number of perfection. Ze believes that the number of second-class elders should be no more than three thousand! Only the three thousand strongest individuals, selected through rigorous screening from among the Great Luo Immortals, will be qualified to enter the Elder Hall of the Witch Clan. In this way, we can gather the fortune of all the Great Luo Immortals in the world and demonstrate the majesty of the Witch Clan. What do you think of this method, Fellow Daoist Jumang?"

Quiet.

At the foot of Mount Buzhou, there was a deathly silence.

The independent cultivators held their breath and didn't dare to even breathe loudly.

Bai Ze's few words directly determined their fate.

With only 3,000 spots available, the elimination rate must be incredibly high!

Even so, they did not back down; instead, a fierce fire ignited in their eyes.

Because Bai Ze secured an opportunity for them, a chance for them to leap over the dragon gate and completely change their destiny!

"Hahaha! Excellent! What a fine 'better to have none than something mediocre'! What a grand 'path of three thousand paths'!"

After a brief silence, Jumang suddenly looked up and laughed loudly, his laughter like rolling thunder in spring, shaking the heavens.

His gaze toward Bai Ze was filled with undisguised admiration.

"As expected of Fellow Daoist Bai Ze, this method is truly wonderful."

Jumang suddenly turned around and looked down at the rogue cultivators below.

"Hear this clearly, all of you!" Jumang's voice, like a resounding bell, echoed throughout the heavens and earth. "From this day forward, in addition to the innate saints who hold the first-class elder positions, our Wu Clan's Elder Hall will establish second-class elder positions, with a limit of three thousand!"
