"So strong!"
"I didn't think they would be so evenly matched! Since when was the third prince this strong!"
The crowd was suprised at the third prince's prowess!
"His cultivation now seems much higher than it was in the last dragon meeting, did he have an epiphany?"
The third prince didn't bother replying to the second prince's acknowledgement of his strength
"Raindrop Saber Art!"
As he slashed toward the second prince, Saber Qi flew out into the air and vastly multiplied, before falling like rain!
It seemed as if the second prince was entrapped!
'Indeed, he must've found some great fortune, there's no other explanation', the second prince thought to himself
It was the only viable explanation he could think of that could explain the third lrince's sudden increase of strength
Seeing the countless saber qi faller towards him, the second prince wasn't discouraged
Even if the third prince had gotten stronger, no matter what, he was still stronger
He didn't believe that the third prince could bridge the gap between them quickly even with a great opportunity
He responded by releasing his own terrifying sword ray!
As he swung his sword, the faint scenery of a mountain could be sceen from behind his attack
Like a mountain, the sword ray went forward with unparalleled momentum, crushing his opponent's attack!
It didn't stop there, as it went ahead and hit the third prince's body, slightly injuring him!
Two collisions, after two collisions it was clear that the second prince was the stronger of the two!
"I admit defeat!", the third prince yellee out as he sheathed his saber before popping a pill into his mouth
Hearing this, the second prince didn't continue further
Afterall, he couldn't attempt to kill him, right?
Losing was losing, but this was a prince, the second prince knew he'd face heavy punishment were he to actually kill this brother of his
The princes were then teleported off of the stage, back to their original spots
This novel's true home is a different platform. Support the author by finding it there.
Meanwhile, Qin Mei saw the third prince discretely leave once he was teleported
Within a moment, he dissapeared
Qin Mei thought it was strange
Even if he wanted to leave, why leave so secretly?
It looks like Qin Daiyu who was beside her had also noticed this too, as her eyes slightly narrowed
Sudddnly, the announcer said something that suprised the both of them!
"Qin Mei against the Star Seizing Holy son!"
She didn't have time to react before being teleported onto the platform, like the others before her
The audience, however, started wondering
"Who is this Qin Mei?"
"She's surnamed Qin, but their isn't anyone named Mei among the Emperor's descendants!"
"Could it be that 8th princess!"
Once everyone heard this, they all came to an agreement and nodded
However when Qin Mei appeared on the platform, except for the ones who had already seen her, they all had one thought in mind
Young!
Extremely Young!
The crowd was shocked!
"She looks to be about six! Has she even started her cultivation?"
"Is this even fair? It's obvious she's going to lose!"
Everyone looked up at the throne, where the Emperor was sitting, yet his expression was one of calmness
"Does the Emperor not seem to care?"
Everyone felt a trace of pity for this young 8th princess, wondering if she was sent to die
No matter how talented she was, there was no way she could even fight back against someone in the golden core realm!
Even the ninth princess became tense, feeling worried
On the stone platform, the young Qin Mei felt slightly scared standing opposite to the Star Seizing Holy son
However, as her heartbeats increased in intensity, her fear slowly died down
The Star Seizing Holy son stared at Qin Mei for a few moments, before giving her a proposal
"I don't want to hurt a kid, so I'm giving you the opportunity to admit defeat!"
That was just one of his reasons why
His main reason was because he wasn't courageous enough to hurt her
The others thought she was sent to die, but so what? Even though he had a backer, he'd still probably suffer major repercussions
Qin Mei refused to admit defeat, as she wasn't one to give up, "Don't worry, I can fight!"
Hah, she was pretty similiar to her father!
"Alright then!", The Star Seizing Holy Son no longer cared anymore
He had given her an opportunity, yet she had refused to take it
"Seeking Void steps!"
He dissappeared from Qin Mei's vision, before once again appearing right infront of her, a palm aimed at her head
The crowd sucked in a breath of cold air!
Ruthless!
He was so ruthless against a child, as expected of a heir
As the Star seizing Holy son struct his palm towards her, everything within Qin Mei's vision slowed down
Clenching her fist and mustering all of her strength, she struck out, meeting his attack!
She could only hope that all of her year's efforts of strengthening her body was worth it
Sensing danger, The Star Seizing holy son's pupils constricted, and he immediately used the life saving artifacts given to him before the meeting!
Numerous golden barriers appeared before him in an attempt to protect him
To everyone's shock however, when their attacks met, the Star Seizing holy son was sent flying into the air
Not only that, when he landed, the power of the fist had caused his life to be hanging on a thread!
"What!?"
The audience was in an uproar!
"How can this be possible? What type of heaven defying talent is this!?"
Looking at the scene before her, even Qin Daiyu felt this was absurd!
Never in her wildest imaginations would she have imagined this scenario
However they didn't know, Qin Mei had practically cultivated her physical body dince birth, day and night!
Paired with her Celestial Heavenly Demon Constitution and purple spirit realm cultivation that was obtained from birth, it was no wonder she won
One had to know, the purple spirit realm was 3 realms above the golden core realm!
That full powered fist of hers was overkill!
The only reason her oponent survived was because of the countless life saving artificats he had by virtue of being a Sacred ground heir!
Qin Mei's "innate" talent was truly heaven defying..
