The three suns hung high in the sky, already shining brightly.
The sunlight reflected off a certain spot, making it extremely eye-catching. Patches of bald heads refracted a dazzling light like large light bulbs.
The Divine Monk Huai Kong's gaze seemed to pierce through the Map of Mountains and Rivers, glimpsing the Heavenly Human City within it.
The Heng Yuan monk Hengyuan looked at his disciple with a serious gaze, and used sign language.
Those who frequently serve as monks at the Hanging Temple will understand. The old monk then asked:
"Did you secretly eat meat?"
"What? Is Master asking me if I have confidence in the Hidden Dragon Assembly?"
Master Cang Ai, Little Monk Murong, has read the random reply.
As he spoke, he subtly tightened his sleeves.
"Of course! I've recently been inspired by Brother Li, and my divine skills have greatly improved!"
"What progress?"
Heng Yuan took a few steps closer without making a sound.
"I know a way to remedy the defects in the body of Wisdom King!"
Heng Yuan paused, glancing at the dashing and spirited Divine Hammer Little Overlord standing not far away.
What good things can I learn from the Peerless Sky Flood Dragon?
But regardless, Li Mo has Ying Bing by his side; that young girl's martial arts skills might...
"What method?" the monk beside him asked curiously.
The Immovable Wisdom King's Golden Body is one of the three great divine skills in the temple, and currently, only Murong Xiao practices it.
Such divine skills, there are actually ways to improve them?
"Yes, I observed the Divine Intent of the sea cucumber. As long as this Divine Intent remains still, the speed of wound healing will greatly increase!"
"?"
The Heng Yuan Hengyuan's face flushed slightly, his emotions a complex mix.
Sea Divine Intent, are you trying to make yourself taste delicious?! Is that the right thing to do? Is it even possible?
But upon closer reflection, he couldn't quite pinpoint the problem...
She could only snort in annoyance, grab Murong Xiao's sleeve, and prepare to take out the meat that this dim-witted disciple had hidden.
Splat--
Two Big-Headed Dolls fell to the ground.
"Master, what are you doing?"
Murong Xiao picked up the two Big-Headed Dolls:
"I just saw those two Big-Headed Dolls; they look like the abbot and the Shang..."
"Cough!"
Before he could finish speaking, the Big-Headed Doll in his hand disappeared.
The monks couldn't help but look towards their abbot, the Venerable Divine Monk Huai Kong.
Why are you all looking at me?
"Things on the ground..."
"What are you talking about? Are you trying to take advantage of my poor memory?"
Divine Monk Huai Kong spoke, he looked at Murong Xiao:
Did you see anything just now?
No.
Murong Xiao shook his head vigorously; he had no intention of practicing Silent Zen.
The Divine Monk Huai Kong nodded in satisfaction.
After a moment, a voice suddenly echoed in the sky:
"Throughout the world, only the divine monk has mastered the Dao of Mustard Seed and Mount Sumeru. Please lend a hand."
Huai Kong nodded slightly and tossed the Alms Bowl from his waist.
The Alms Bowl was suspended upside down on the high platform, with thousands of auspicious rays hanging down, distorting the space around the platform. It appeared to be the same size, but in reality, the interior had expanded considerably and was filled with many wonders.
At the same time.
Clang--
Clang--
Clang--
The Morning Bell rang three times in succession, and a dragon chariot emerged from the Meridian Gate. Pulling the chariot was a pure Golden Dragon, majestic and solemn, dazzling and magnificent. Its body was not particularly huge, but its dragon aura was so overwhelming that one could not look directly at it.
The dragon carriage it pulled resembled a small palace, with carved beams and painted rafters, upturned eaves, and eunuchs and palace maids coming and going.
The carriages surrounding him were filled with important officials of the dynasty, both civil and military.
"His Majesty has arrived!"
The curtain was drawn back, revealing two figures inside the palace.
One of them wore a crown with tassels on his head, his face indistinct. When he appeared, even the sun in the sky seemed to become much more dazzling.
One is the Empress, who tops the Hundred Flowers Ranking, possessing an air of elegance and majesty befitting an empress.
"Father..."
Jiang Chulong wore sunglasses, which made her look cool no matter what expression she had.
She had thought many times before how wonderful it would be if one day she could stand openly beside her father and empress.
But now...
She glanced back at what was behind her.
Not far away, Big Brother Li, in his white robe, looked handsome and sunny, while Sister Bing, in her black fairy dress, was as aloof as a lotus flower. The two of them looked up at each other, their eyes showing no reverence.
Princess Little Jiang quietly took two steps back, standing closer to them.
Above, the eunuch held the imperial edict and began to read it aloud, his voice booming like a bell:
"With peace throughout the land and the emergence of so many outstanding individuals over the years, it truly demonstrates that the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths are blessed with exceptional people and auspicious omens. I am deeply gratified..."
I've said a lot, so let me summarize.
The first part is just polite talk. "Under my rule, the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths are thriving, and I am very pleased. This shows that you are a good leader."
It's all thanks to me. Who agrees? Who disagrees?
No one objects, that's good. Aren't you going to shower me with compliments?
Part Two: Rules of the Hidden Dragon Assembly
The rules of the Hidden Dragon Assembly are very simple!
The top three in the Hidden Dragon Ranking will be selected through a lottery competition and will be granted entry to the Heavenly Human City. Furthermore, every genius on the Hidden Dragon Ranking will receive Imperial Family reward, with higher rankings yielding better rewards.
"I hereby declare the assembly open!"
The vast crowd erupted in thunderous cheers.
Within the Map of Mountains and Rivers, the projection of light and shadow displays scenes from the Hidden Dragon Assembly, a thrilling replay.
The court musicians played string and wind instruments, their melodies lingering and their passion surging.
"Imperial Capital, I'm back. I'm not back to show off how strong I am, but because what I've lost, I will take back with my own hands!"
"I never dreamed I could reach the Hidden Dragon Assembly and revive the Gangdou Sect. It is our duty."
"The Cloud-Crossing Sword Intent is invincible under heaven!"
"If it weren't for Brother Li, I would still be struggling in the outer sect, and might even have been expelled..."
"The scenery of the Imperial Capital, the scenery of the Hidden Dragon Assembly, is truly first-class."
"Brother Li may have a lot of ideas, but he is indeed a gentleman."
Everyone couldn't help but feel emotional.
"..."
Ying Bing gazed at this scene, her thoughts suddenly became very long.
It seemed as if a breeze from the Heavenly Human City was blowing through her hair, and in a daze, she saw herself standing on the stage again.
At that time, the Clear Abyss Sect was already in decline, and she came to the Imperial Capital to attend the conference in order to avoid disaster.
After winning the championship, she felt no joy, only a growing sense of loneliness.
By then, no one was waiting for news of her anymore, right?
Now, she has people waiting behind her, cheering for her and worrying about her...
She also had reasons why she had to win.
This ranking by the system was the one she most hoped to achieve at the top.
"These are His Majesty and the Empress?"
Li Mo wanted to take a look using the Heavenly Mandate Divine Eye.
However, the Divine Eye warned: [Warning: The object the host is observing may cause unpredictable accidents. Continue observing?]
"... Let's just forget about it."
Li Mo felt that he was living a good life now and there was no need to make things difficult for himself.
Some beings exist, such as celestial beings from the Nine Heavens; simply knowing about them would be a huge problem.
He shook his head and looked at the others.
Finding investment opportunities is secondary; the main thing is to understand your competitors.
First, you need to be among the top three in the Hidden Dragon Sect to qualify for the Heavenly Human City and help Ice Block reclaim the other Heavenly Phoenix Domain.
And then, it's a win-win situation!
The Heaven-Equalizing Battle Intent is forged into an invincible heart. If one can reach the top in the Hidden Dragon Assembly, the Heaven-Equalizing Battle Intent will advance to the next level.
Maybe then I'll be able to try wearing the Monkey King's armor.
To put it simply, it's both about winning and about getting the prize!
