One month later!
"Since this is the Prodigy Gathering, the higher-ups have stipulated that each prodigy may bring only one person inside!"
In the palace serving as the Vermilion Bird Emperor Domain's temporary Daoist grounds, Nan Qiqi looked at the nine prodigies before her and said unhurriedly, "Everyone, please have any extra companions rest here for now!"
"With the team leader watching over this place personally, there won't be any safety issues!"
He Pingsheng looked at the people beside him.
Ting Tong, He Tianya, Su Zhenzhen, Zhou Qingmei, and Zi Qing.
He could only bring one inside?
Who should he bring?
"Mother, I think you should go in with Father!" He Tianya made the decision for his old father outright.
He Pingsheng could hardly say anything more and was about to hold his nose and accept it, but Su Zhenzhen shook her head. "I won't go. Tianya, you know I don't like appearing in public. Besides, at such an important occasion, what if something else happens?"
"So I think one of our two sisters in the Body Integration Realm should go inside instead. That way, if anything unexpected happens, she'll be able to handle it!"
Su Zhenzhen looked sincerely at Zhou Qingmei and Zi Qing.
Zi Qing said, "I don't want to go either. He Pingsheng, let your maidservant go in with you!"
He Pingsheng nodded. "That works."
In the end, Zhou Qingmei followed He Pingsheng out of the temporary Daoist grounds.
Nan Qiqi personally led the party of ten toward the very center of Stone Terrace City.
They had been here for nearly a month, and only two days remained before the Stone Terrace Gathering officially began, so the organizers had arranged a Prodigy Meet-and-Greet before the competition.
It would bring the prodigies from the various Emperor Domains together
