Changed careers to become a flower thief?

"My rabbit is truly a thrifty and house-proud rabbit!"

Xiao Bai happily counted the spirit stones earned. She took out the original-smelling underwear stolen last night. If she could auction it off, she could buy some heavenly treasures.

"Qin Feng's teenage underwear, starting bid 20 spirit stones!!"

"I bid 25 spirit stones!!"

"..."

The young ladies from Moon God Palace were serious about men. The moment the original-smelling underwear appeared, it immediately caused screams throughout the venue.

Whoosh!

A sharp whistling sound grew louder in the vast forest. Qin Feng, beneath the waterfall, suddenly opened his eyes, a sharp glint flashing within them. Invisible sword qi surged around his body.

Bang!!

The invisible sword qi instantly tore through the waterfall, colliding with the incoming energy. The water from the waterfall exploded and splashed everywhere.

Two beauties, one tall and one small, appeared by the waterfall. It was Moon God and Zi Yuan. Unlike Zi Yuan seven years ago, she had shed her youthful immaturity. With every glance and smile, she exuded infinite charm.

It was rumored that she had been cultivating with Moon God all these years, practicing some powerful technique that only girls could cultivate.

"Not bad, your understanding of Sword Intent and Sword Heart is growing deeper."

Moon God looked at Qin Feng with great satisfaction. It was worth it that she broke the palace rules back then and made him the Divine Son of Moon God Palace. In the future, Moon God Palace would definitely become stronger because of this child.

"If I'm not strong, how can I marry Moon God sister? I'm aware of that."

Qin Feng provocatively raised one eyebrow and showed off his physique in front of Moon God.

Splash!!

Zi Yuan angrily stepped forward and kicked Qin Feng into the waterfall. She huffed, "You've been eyeing my aunt since you were little. Didn't you see a beauty like me standing right here?!"

"It is quite big!"

Qin Feng surfaced and took a look. He didn't know what Zi Yuan had eaten over the years. Her chest had indeed grown larger, the kind that couldn't be held in one hand.

"Pervert!!"

Zi Yuan's face turned red from being teased, and she started playfully fighting with Qin Feng again.

"You two, stop messing around!"

Moon God was accustomed to Qin Feng's teasing. She said calmly, "Qin Feng, in a few days, it will be the Yin Moon Dynasty's ten-year Death Elimination Tournament. Are you interested in participating!?"

"Death Elimination Tournament!?"

Qin Feng frowned. He had heard of this elimination competition.

Since the Yin Moon Dynasty's reforms a hundred years ago, the Death Elimination Tournament had become the key to the Yin Moon Dynasty's rise.

It could be understood as the college entrance examination. Various powers in the Yin Moon Dynasty would send their outstanding talents to take the exam. Those who passed would receive key training from the Yin Moon Dynasty.

Powerful teaching staff, abundant cultivation resources, everything one could ask for.

The only difference from the college entrance examination was that after passing through the narrow bridge with thousands of soldiers and horses, failure in the college entrance examination could be retried. The Death Elimination Tournament, as its name suggested, was not just about crossing the narrow bridge alive; many would remain in the examination hall forever.

Qin Feng didn't care much about life and death. What he cared about was whether he could meet the destined one he loved.

Just then--

Cheers could be heard from the young ladies not far away, as if celebrating buying underwear for 100 spirit stones.

"White Rice Bucket!!"

Qin Feng landed behind Xiao Bai with a light touch, like a dragonfly skimming the water.

Xiao Bai's fur bristled immediately upon hearing the name. She angrily shouted, "My rabbit's name is Qin Xiaobai, Qin Xiaobai, Qin Xiaobai! From now on, whoever dares to call me Rabbit White Rice Bucket, I will bite them to death."

"Okay, White Rice Bucket!"

Qin Feng nodded as if he understood, but he had no intention of changing his habit.

He wondered why his underwear had disappeared before he could wash it. It turned out this rabbit had taken it out and openly auctioned it.

"It's Moon God!!"

A group of young ladies, like elementary school students encountering their homeroom teacher, were so scared that they quickly fled the scene.

"Xiao Bai, you've gone too far!"

Zi Yuan stood aside, puffing out her cheeks, and strongly condemned Xiao Bai's actions.

"My rabbit didn't want to either, but my rabbit is hungry..." ??

Xiao Bai put on a wronged look, describing how miserable her life had been.

Although she didn't have heavenly treasures to eat before, she at least had carrots supplied on time. But recently, for some unknown reason, even the carrot supply had stopped.

If she didn't sell something, she would starve to death.

"Sigh..."

Qin Feng sighed helplessly. It wasn't that he didn't want to feed the rabbits, he just lacked the villain points.

His current life was also very difficult. If he couldn't find another victim, no, a Chosen One, he was considering changing careers to become a flower thief.

Although it paid less, it was barely enough to get by.

Just then—

A young lady came to report, "Reporting to Divine Son, there's a prodigy outside who wishes to challenge you."

"Here we go again!"

Qin Feng felt utterly speechless.

Ever since he was ranked as the number one prodigy in Archaic Era, people had been constantly coming to Moon God Palace to challenge him. However, none of them were the Chosen Ones he was looking for, so he couldn't muster any interest.

The young lady continued, "Divine Son, this person is no ordinary individual. They are a disciple of the Son of Heaven from the Great Xia Dynasty."

"Disciple of the Son of Heaven!!"

Qin Feng's brow furrowed. He was no stranger to this term.

If he remembered correctly, and he was sure he did, the Tang Dynasty had used methods like the imperial examination system and disciples of the Son of Heaven to end the rule of aristocratic families and greatly strengthen centralized authority.

What was Emperor of Great Xia doing now? Was he trying to weaken the power of the aristocratic families?

Soon—

Qin Feng found the relevant records.

Seven years ago, Emperor of Great Xia suddenly announced that he would be taking disciples, and any prodigies selected would become disciples of the Son of Heaven.

As soon as the news broke, the entire Great Xia was in an uproar. Being the Emperor's disciple was an unimaginable honor, and even the major aristocratic families couldn't resist the allure of the title "Disciple of the Son of Heaven."

Thus, a grand selection process for disciples of the Son of Heaven began. As expected, the prodigies from aristocratic families dominated, but a large number of prodigies from humble backgrounds also emerged.

Emperor of Great Xia kept his promise and accepted the aristocratic family prodigies as his disciples. He didn't let the humble prodigies go either, taking them on as prospective disciples of the Son of Heaven.

"This old fellow is indeed targeting the aristocratic families!"

Qin Feng saw through it at a glance. Emperor of Great Xia had a sinister plan.

The title "Disciple of the Son of Heaven" seemed incredibly noble, but in reality, they were Emperor of Great Xia's pawns.

Humble prodigies had no backing and would eventually have to rely on Emperor of Great Xia, becoming his sword against the aristocratic families.

For the aristocratic family prodigies, having a master-disciple relationship meant that disobedience would be considered treason. In terms of righteousness, Emperor of Great Xia had already won.

At the same time, he was also very curious about who was behind Emperor of Great Xia, advising him. Based on his ten years of experience as a bookworm, this person was likely the Chosen One he had been searching for for seven years.

Rumble!!

A booming sound came from the front hall, along with the curses of that disciple of the Son of Heaven.

"Qin Feng, if you have the guts to be a traitor, come out! I know you're in there, don't hide and stay silent..."
