Chapter 680 - 672: Mysterious Grand Prize
In the Main Hall of the Sun and Moon Divine Sect, Sect Leader Jian Zhuxiong stood beneath the statue of the divine in the Temple, clad in a black robe embroidered with a scarlet sun and a golden moon.
On either side of the Hall, the high-ranking members of the Sun and Moon Divine Sect were dressed in white robes, embroidered with contrasts of a scarlet sun, a golden moon, and silver stars according to their internal grades.
People like the Head of the Inner Affairs Hall Zhu Ling, Sunshine Hall Master Shen Cang, Punishment Hall Elder Tus De, Vice Sect Hierarchs Tian Guizhang and Yao Sen, all wore white robes with a scarlet sun on their chests, which lacked the half-moon that adorned Jian Qianxiong’s attire.
They were individuals with status only second to Sect Leader Jian Qianxiong within the Divine Sect and thus enjoyed the most elite treatment.
Then there were those like Yua Hanjing, Qingyue, Second Commander Chen Changxing, Third Commander Hee Yangxin, and other Deputy Hall Masters from various halls, dressed in robes featuring a half-moon of gold.
At the very back stood Martial Artists wearing robes adorned with three silver stars, such as the newly appointed Moonlight Hall Master Wu Min, who had never assumed her post, as well as several Sect Leaders from different halls who happened to be reporting for duty, commanders of the Sun and Moon Iron Guards responsible for guarding the outer regions, including Zhang Deli and another Messenger Envoy of the Divine Sect, all clothed in silver-starred attires.
Standing along both sides of the Temple, Martial Artists in silver-starred attires were the most numerous—casually looking over, there seemed to be seventy or eighty of them.
Counting those in sun and moon embroidered robes, there were over a hundred people gathered within the Temple of the Sun and Moon Divine Sect.
Though there were many, it was as quiet as if there were not a single bird chirping.
Moreover, it was supposed to be an awards ceremony held internally by the Sun and Moon Divine Sect, yet the atmosphere was unusually solemn!
