Ten people from Great Xia.
Many of them were Divine Seeds their Lineages had buried beneath the dark soil for years.
Only recently had they emerged before the world, like blazing suns bursting through black clouds.
Nalan Longfei and Lan Xiaodie were both celestial maidens of Ancient Clans.
Their natural gifts were all but unrivaled.
Their looks and figures were also outstanding.
As the only two women among the ten.
The moment they appeared.
They drew intense attention from all the other men present.
Even Xuan Yuan Shenyang and Xuan Yuan Taiyin could not help casting frequent glances their way.
After all, women with such outstanding beauty, whose backgrounds and talents also matched theirs, were exceedingly rare throughout Great Xia.
Xiao Chen alone was different.
Since the two women appeared.
He had merely swept a casual glance over them.
Then withdrawn his gaze.
As tranquil as still water.
This made the proud and haughty Lan Xiaodie deeply uncomfortable.
Though they had only recently emerged into the world.
They had heard plenty of legends about Xiao Chen.
They knew he was now universally acknowledged as the foremost member of Great Xia's younger generation.
Before their departure.
Their Lineages had even given them special instructions.
They were to do everything possible to befriend Xiao Chen.
If they could forge a favorable bond with him, nothing could be better.
If not, they absolutely must not make an enemy of him.
But after meeting him.
Lan Xiaodie discovered that Xiao Chen was only at the First Level of the King Realm.
She could not help looking down on him.
Among all those present.
Three had reached the Third-Level King Realm.
The remaining six were all at the King Realm Second Layer.
Xiao Chen alone.
Was only at the First Level of the King Realm.
