40. Dragon Tiger Sect, Dominating the Southern Territory

"You're saying the Golden Elephant Kingdom is a vassal state of the Dragon Tiger Sect?"

Xiao Minghuang's delicate eyebrows furrowed as she asked.

"That's right!"

Lin Zhengquan nodded:

"The Dragon Tiger Sect primarily cultivates the Body Cultivator path and is one of the Three Great Sects. It has countless disciples, and its sect master is an expert in the Primal Embryo Realm. In the entire Southern Territory, it is practically omnipotent."

"The Golden Elephant Kingdom is merely one of the Dragon Tiger Sect's eight affiliated powers."

"But even so, the Golden Elephant Kingdom, relying on the Dragon Tiger Sect's prestige, has already annexed who knows how many smaller factions. Now they frequently cause friction at our Great Xia's border, possibly intending to use the Dragon Tiger Sect's influence to swallow Great Xia."

Hearing this, Xiao Minghuang also fell silent.

The Golden Elephant Kingdom was just an ordinary small country. Its ruler was only at the Divine Sea Realm cultivation, far inferior to Great Xia's Old Ancestor, who was an expert in the Spirit Seed Realm.

However, the Dragon Tiger Sect was one of the Southern Territory's Three Great Sects, immensely powerful, far beyond what Great Xia could contend with.

Not to mention, the Royal Family's Old Ancestor's Life Span Nearing End, making them unwilling to easily initiate conflict.

If the Dragon Tiger Sect were to intervene, it might bring about the disaster of national destruction.

Seeing Xiao Minghuang lost in thought, Lin Zhengquan smiled and said:

"Great Xia has an unparalleled expert in the Spirit Seed Realm. Once the national protection formation is activated, it is enough to safeguard Great Xia. Your Highness need not worry too much!"

The matter of the Old Ancestor's Life Span Nearing End was known only to a select few.

"Forget it, thinking too much is useless. It's better to improve my strength as soon as possible; that's the true path."

With this thought, Xiao Minghuang chuckled softly.

From Lin Zhengquan's explanation, Xiao Minghuang learned that in this martial arts competition, Great Xia and the Golden Elephant Kingdom would each send five young prodigies to spar. The first to win three matches would become the owner of the spiritual脉.

Lin Zhengquan's original plan was for the four great families and the City Lord's Mansion to each send one person to represent Beiyang City. However, plans could not keep up with changes.

The Chen Family was exposed for practicing Evil Cultivation and was annihilated, leaving no one to send.

Lin Wanqiu's meridians were unblocked, and at only fourteen years old, she reached the Body Tempering Peak Realm, making her a top-tier genius in all of Great Xia, second only to Ninth Princess Xiao Minghuang.

Therefore, the slots were decided as one person from each of the three great families, along with Lin Wanqiu and Xiao Minghuang, who would be the final participant.

After hearing Lin Zhengquan's plan, Xiao Minghuang's delicate eyebrows furrowed, and she said:

"Why bother with all that trouble? I can defeat them all by myself!"

Lin Zhengquan chuckled awkwardly:

"We promised the Golden Elephant Kingdom to each send five people. Going back on our word now might cause complications..."

"Very well, City Lord Lin, is there an arena in the city? I'd like to take this opportunity to witness the strength of Beiyang City's young prodigies."

Upon hearing this, City Lord Lin's expression froze for a moment, then turned to joy.

The Ninth Princess said she wanted to witness the strength of the young prodigies, but with her talent and cultivation, the so-called young prodigies were nothing but mediocre individuals.

The performance of the Chen Family's successor at the banquet was truly pathetic, and the other three great families were no better. If they represented Beiyang City in the competition, they would likely have no chance of winning.

In fact, this was very likely the Ninth Princess's way of ensuring victory in this competition by helping to guide Beiyang City's young martial artists.

To put it bluntly, this was an opportunity bestowed upon the young martial artists of Beiyang City!

Lin Zhengquan immediately responded:

"Your Highness, please proceed to the arena first. This humble servant will go and summon them immediately!"

With these words, Lin Zhengquan bowed and retreated.

Arena.

This was a vast ground paved with bluestone slabs, spanning hundreds of zhang.

In the center of the arena stood a large spirit-measuring disk, specifically used for martial artists to test their Spiritual Roots.

The training grounds within the City Lord's mansion were open for all the young martial artists in Beiyang City to use, which meant they were almost always bustling with noise and activity.

However, at this moment, all eyes were fixed on the Spirit Testing Disc, watching the three graceful figures standing in the center, unable to look away.

Three beautiful girls, each with a different appearance but equally captivating, stood before the Spirit Testing Disc.

They merely stood there, silent and unsmiling, yet they had already drawn looks of astonishment from everyone present, regardless of gender or age.

A young martial artist exclaimed in awe:

"Where did these three ladies come from? I'm so fortunate to have the chance to see such beautiful girls; it's truly a blessing from my past lives!"

A girl accompanying him explained:

"The one on the right seems to be the City Lord's eldest daughter, Lin Wanqiu. I've seen her before... she seems even more beautiful than usual."

Another woman touched her chest and sighed, shaking her head:

"Comparing myself to others makes me want to die. If I were even half as small as the young lady on the right, I wouldn't be tossed around by her."

Then, a charming young girl spoke up:

"I think the one in the middle, wearing the red dress, is the prettiest... If I could kiss her, I'd feel like my life had been worthwhile... Huh? Why are you all looking at me like that?"

Hearing the girl speak, the other young girls with her looked surprised and distanced themselves from her.

Seeing this, the charming girl pouted dismissively.

"With your looks, you can't even compare to one-ten-thousandth of that girl in red. Don't flatter yourselves!"

Unaware of the various reactions from the crowd below, Xiao Minghuang and the other two were focused on their own objectives.

They had come to the training grounds for two reasons: first, to observe the young martial artists of Beiyang City and select those with the strength to participate in the martial arts competition; second, to test their own Spiritual Root aptitude.

While martial artists could sense the general changes in their Spiritual Roots, it wasn't precise. The aptitude measured by the Spirit Testing Disc was the most accurate.

Xiao Minghuang stood before the Spirit Testing Disc and first turned her gaze to Ye Ruoshui.

Ye Ruoshui understood and nodded, taking a step forward to stand before the Spirit Testing Disc. Thanks to Xiao Minghuang's careful nurturing, she knew her Spiritual Root aptitude had significantly improved, reaching approximately the Mystic Grade. However, she couldn't determine its specific rank. This was the perfect opportunity to find out.

The next moment.

Ye Ruoshui extended her slender, fair, and tender hand, gently placing it on the Spirit Testing Disc. She circulated her Cultivation Method, drawing forth a resonance with her Spiritual Root.

A beam of multicolored light shot up from the Spirit Testing Disc, splitting into white, cyan, and crimson hues. Dense spiritual energy fluctuations surged outward with extraordinary power, leaving everyone present in shock.

"Mystic Grade Top-tier Spiritual Root!"

An elder martial artist exclaimed.

"I never thought I'd live to see a Mystic Grade Top-tier Spiritual Root appear in my lifetime. This is enough!"

A white-haired old man sighed. Amidst the gasps of admiration, Ye Ruoshui returned to Xiao Minghuang's side, her gaze then shifting to Lin Wanqiu. A slight smile curved her lips, and a hint of challenge flickered in her eyes. It was as if she were saying: See? My talent is leagues beyond yours! Only I am worthy of accompanying Your Highness!

Lin Wanqiu understood, but she didn't retort. Firstly, she considered herself older and didn't deign to argue with the little maidservant. Secondly, as the latter, she felt obligated to show some respect to the "senior."

Lin Wanqiu steadied herself and stepped forward, placing her hand on the Spirit Testing Disc and inducing a resonance with her Spiritual Root.

The next moment.

Three streams of cyan, mystic, and crimson light shot up into the sky, spiritual energy surging and churning, its power no less imposing than the astonishing phenomenon just moments before.

The Most Scummy Valkyrie of Destiny

As an ordinary Valkyrie, Facing enemies, Even when surrounded by danger, she never stops her trash talk, constantly trying to provoke the opponent.

"Sirin, why do you always cycle between inflating yourself and getting beaten, getting beaten and inflating yourself? Are you a pufferfish?"

"You're the one called the Herrscher? Look at the Herrschers you've gathered; they're either traitors or get wiped out instantly. You're a pretty failed leader, aren't you?"

And towards her teammates, she was equally merciless.

"Class President, why are you going into the women's restroom?"

"Duck, why was your driver's license suspended again?"

"Auntie Himeko, you look so young; no one would guess you're pushing forty."

"Grandma, you actually jumped up and hit my knee?!"

"Kiana, you don't want Mei to leave you, do you?"

"Mei, you don't want Kiana to suffer the pain brought by the Herrscher's power, do you?"

And all of this was actually her way of transforming this imperfect world into the one she had envisioned!

[Ding~ System Notification: Congratulations to the host for obtaining the 'Killing Heart System'. Regardless of the method, as long as you stimulate others to produce emotional fluctuations, you can replicate their abilities...]

"I didn't have a choice before, but now, I want to be a bad woman..."

41. Deceive the Heavens to Cross the Sea, Guiding Cultivation

"Another Mystic Grade Top-tier Spiritual Root!"

Everyone present exclaimed again, some disbelieving their eyes.

To witness the birth of two Mystic Grade Top-tier Spiritual Roots in a single day was a phenomenon that might not occur even once in several centuries.

"With two geniuses possessing Mystic Grade Top-tier Spiritual Roots, Great Xia is destined for great prosperity!"

An elder with white hair sighed.

"The divine light that filled the sky this morning, was it an anomaly caused by these two geniuses?"

A young martial artist asked curiously.
