Ning Shi’s first impression of New Star City was quite good.

The academy’s earth-level warship had already reported that the reason for coming to New Star City was that the new principal had taken office, and the school committee member had come to New Star City on behalf of the new principal to pay a visit.

After the warship stopped, the school committee members were warmly received by the New Star City diplomat. Ning Shi and Tong Baiming mixed in the crowd and took advantage of the gap in the reception to leave the academy’s main force.

Their destination was the Wuji Palace in the northern district, which was the property of the Celestial Sect in New Star City. It was the Celestial Sect’s base in New Star City.

Sitting in the Shangcheng District’s public flying car, Ning Shi leaned against the window to observe the surrounding situation.

Whether it was the nine-square grid plan of the urban area, the green belt of average height, or the uniform decoration style on the streets, it all showed the unusual rigor of New Star City.

Ning Shi glanced at Tong Baiming and teased, “Mr. Tong, you should learn from New Star City when you build a city in the future, right? Everything here should make you very comfortable.”

Ning Shi still remembered the first time he met Tong Baiming. Everything in his residence was neat and tidy. Even the butler’s movements were accurately measured. He knew that Tong Baiming was a patient with severe obsessive-compulsive disorder.

That was why he said that.

Tong Baiming didn’t deny it. He sighed and said, “In terms of my personal style, of course I like New Star City. Everything here is in line with my aesthetic.

“Unfortunately, immune people are different from radioactive people. Because radioactive people cultivate the power of radiation elements, they cannot make any mistakes. Therefore, most radioactive people have a very strict personality.

“However, the immune people are used to living in the wild and like freedom and liveliness. If the city is built like New Star City, the immune people will go crazy.”

Tong Baiming was an anomaly among the immune people. What he said made sense, which also showed that he was a good leader who could distinguish his personal preferences from the group preferences of the immune people.

The two of them chatted for a while. About half an hour later, the public flying car stopped at Platform 9 in the northern district.

Ning Shi and Tong Baiming got out of the car and walked for another five minutes before they finally arrived at Wuji Palace.

Tong Baiming had been to Wuji Palace a few times and was very familiar with this place. He walked in front and said, “Let’s hurry in. It’s already 9:30 p.m. The selection of the host will officially begin at 10 p.m.

“The rest of the candidates came here ten days to half a month in advance to prepare. You should be the last candidate to arrive.”

Ning Shi nodded and followed Tong Baiming into Wuji Palace.

Wuji Palace occupied a large area. The architectural style was more retro for the Titanium Pole World. It was a courtyard building with multiple fronts and back entrances, showing the traditional atmosphere everywhere.

The guard at the door recognized Tong Baiming and did not stop the two of them.

Ning Shi followed Tong Baiming through four courtyards before arriving at the Wuji Hall.

The hall was very spacious and imposing. It was about 10 meters high, and there were four thick pillars supporting the roof on both sides. The pillars were engraved with patterns of dragons, tigers, and beasts.

On both sides of the hall, there were two rows of long mahogany tables. At this moment, there were already many people sitting at the tables.

Looking forward, there were nine steps in the innermost part of the hall. Above the steps was a platform. On the platform was an extremely wide dragon head chair. On the left and right of the dragon head chair were two smaller tiger head chairs.

Ning Shi had learned about the situation from Tong Baiming before. He knew that the dragon head chair was for the person in charge, and the two tiger head chairs were for the sect leader representative of the sect alliance and the pavilion master of the Hermit Pavilion.

Tong Baiming was quite popular in the Celestial Sect. After he entered the main hall, people kept greeting him.

From time to time, he would stop and exchange a few words with the people around him.

After a round of politeness, he brought Ning Shi to the fifth seat on the left near the stairs.

The first five seats on the left near the steps were reserved for candidates. There were a total of five people participating in the selection of the speaker today. Ning Shi was the last to arrive, so he could only sit in the fifth seat.

Ning Shi and Tong Baiming sat side by side. He casually glanced left and right and found that very few people his age sat down. Most of the teenagers stood in the back row.

Even the four candidates on Ning Shi’s left were close to 30 years old. They were not young anymore. They did not sit in their seats but stood respectfully behind the elders of the sect.

The rules of traditional fighters were like this. They paid attention to respecting teachers and the order of seniority.

In front of their elders or seniors, young people had to show absolute respect. They had to stand up.

Under such circumstances, Ning Shi was so young, yet he was sitting next to Tong Baiming. He was very eye-catching.

Many people frowned, seemingly unhappy.

A straightforward man with a red face asked Tong Baiming, “Elder Tong, who is this young man beside you? He doesn’t seem to know the rules of the martial world.’

Tong Baiming laughed and explained, “This young friend is called Ning Shi. He belongs to the One Blade Butcher lineage and is the successor of Master Li Yidao.

“Because I am a generation lower than Master Li, it is normal for me to sit together with little friend Ning Shi.”

Hearing Tong Baiming’s explanation, the crowd didn’t say anything else.

As for Ning Shi’s four competitors, after hearing that Ning Shi’s origin was the One Blade Sect, a small sect that was about to go extinct, they also withdrew their scrutinizing gazes.

In the eyes of these candidates, only the candidates from the big sects were their competitors.

Every time the Celestial Sect held the selection of the person in charge, there would always be some small sects who did not know the immensity of heaven and earth. They would not give up and elect some geniuses to embarrass themselves..
