After that person's words, everyone found them to be quite reasonable.
In an instant, the various factions gathered on that plaza grew excited.
This was especially true for the clansmen of the Puyang Heavenly Clan and the Li Heavenly Clan.
After all, the Puyang Heavenly Clan's prodigies included Puyang Han and Puyang Qi, while the Li Heavenly Clan's prodigy was Li Anzhi.
In their eyes, if someone within that Prodigy Formation had truly summoned the Sacred Spirit Light Formation, they felt it was most likely one of their own clansmen.
Hummm—
As the crowd speculated, the phenomenon hovering in the void began to change.
The colossal beast phantom that had loomed across the horizon started to shift, then gradually dissipate.
And once that beast phantom had completely vanished, an enormous wave surged into existence within the void. The wave did not crash downward but instead continued to gather and swell, and in the blink of an eye, it had coalesced into a vast ocean suspended in the sky.
Yet that ocean, once formed, was as still as a mirror — as if it were a super-giant looking glass.
The mirror was not only breathtakingly beautiful, but within it, an image was reflected.
It was a group of people — the very prodigies who had entered the Prodigy Formation.
At that moment, regardless of gender or which faction they hailed from, they were all gathered around a single person, cheering and jubilating, shouting his name at the top of their lungs. Some among them were even freely heaping praise upon him without the slightest restraint.
Although the mirror could only reflect the image and none of their words could be heard—
Everyone present was a martial cultivator. They had no need to hear sounds; from the lip movements of those people in the image alone, they could discern exactly what was being said.
The name they were chanting belonged to Chu Feng.
"Chu Feng?"
"Isn't that the one who was the first to enter the Prodigy Formation when it opened this time?"
"Chu Feng of the Chu Heavenly Clan?"
Suddenly, someone spoke up, their voice filled with shock.
"The Chu Heavenly Clan? The Chu Heavenly Clan from the Eastern Region?" At that moment, someone from the Linghu Heavenly Clan also spoke up.
"Yes. The first to enter the Prodigy Formation when it opened this time was a clansman of the Chu Heavenly Clan — Chu Feng," another person replied.
"The Chu Heavenly Clan... isn't that family long past its prime? They shouldn't even be qualified to enter the Prodigy Formation anymore. How did they get in this time?"
"And they were actually the first to enter?"
The Linghu Heavenly Clan, the Nightmare Spirit Clan, the Tongtian Beast Clan, and the clans from the other three regions were all gripped by these same questions.
Though the Chu Heavenly Clan had long since fallen into decline — and had never once risen to the position of the strongest power in the Ancestral Martial Starfield from beginning to end — the Chu Heavenly Clan was nevertheless a name known to virtually everyone throughout the entire Ancestral Martial Starfield.
Not for any other reason, but because those two peerless geniuses had both emerged from that very same, seemingly weak Chu Heavenly Clan.
"What exactly is going on? Can anyone from the Eastern Region explain this?"
At that moment, the Linghu Heavenly Clan turned their gazes toward the Dongguo Heavenly Clan and the other factions that had come from the Eastern Region.
"Allow me to explain this matter." At that moment, Dongguo Bingyu rose to her feet.
"Dongguo Bingyu, you need only tell us where this Chu Feng comes from," said Linghu Tiemian.
"This Chu Feng is the son of Chu Xuanyuan and the grandson of Chu Hanxian," Dongguo Bingyu replied.
