These two elders dressed in brocade robes hail from an intermediate-level sect in Central State, both capable as Emperor Realm Martial Artists. However, they are far from attaining the title of Titled Emperor Martial, let alone comparing themselves to the Holy Palace Master of the Taiyi Palace.
Their appearance here was spurred by seeing Xiao Ye not receiving due attention in the Taiyi Palace, prompting them to speak out, aiming to forge a closer relationship with the Taiyi Palace.
After all, they acutely understand that for a sect to develop, it needs the infusion of powerful geniuses; Xiao Ye is obviously such a genius. They believe that once the Holy Palace Master learns of his attainment in the Martial Arts Extreme Realm, he will surely feel a sense of gratitude towards them.
Indeed, a talent like Xiao Ye, if neglected, would represent a colossal loss for the Taiyi Palace.
