Chapter 105: The Water Moon Princess

  An Yumeng's three daughters were all stunning beauties, each with their own unique charm. Any one of them walking out alone would cause a huge commotion, let alone the three of them appearing together! As they walked by, everyone couldn't help but stop and stare, with voices of admiration ringing out continuously.

  As for Zhou Heng, he was elegantly ignored.

  They arrived quite late, and the palace was already crowded with people. Since it wasn't time yet, everyone hadn't taken their seats and had formed into small groups chatting.

  This is the Water Moon Palace that was bestowed upon Princess Water Moon by the Emperor after she entered the First Rank. It's called the Water Moon Palace, majestic and grand, with unparalleled splendor.

  Zhou Heng saw Liu Shengjie, Jing Tian, unfortunately, Zhu Zhihe and Liu Yan were eliminated early, otherwise these four guys would definitely be in their element here.

  "Prince Zhou——" A melodious voice rose, and a woman in purple clothes walked towards him with a gentle smile. Her well-tailored palace attire perfectly accentuated her slender figure, with a plump chest, full hips, and a slim waist.

  "Miss Ruan!" Zhou Heng cupped his fists in greeting, and the arrival was none other than Ruan Jiayin, the person in charge of Tianbao Pavilion. This woman really wouldn't leave him alone; he could see her shadow wherever he went.

  Still can't forget one's own secrets!

  Ruan Jiaying smiled slightly and turned to say something to An Yumei and the other three girls, except for Guzi, the three girls quickly burst into cheerful laughter, attracting frequent glances from others, after all, they were all beauties.

  In fact, there are still a few high-end beauties here, but the beauties and beauties will never get along with each other, they all have their own circles, how can they compare to the four girls' simultaneous blooming radiance, naturally they were outshone.

  Immediately, an unfamiliar man came over to chat her up. After several attempts, Gu Zi became impatient and held two crescent moon blades in her hands. Suddenly, no one dared to come near again. Gu Zi's strength was not the strongest here, but who would make a move in this situation, especially when the opponent was a stunning beauty? Wasn't he afraid of being blamed by the Water Moon Goddess?

  "The Water Moon Princess has arrived!"

  After another ten or so minutes, someone suddenly shouted in a loud voice, and the palace was instantly quiet. Everyone's eyes were fixed on the inner gate of the palace. Princess Shuizhuyue lived here, so it was impossible for her to enter from the main gate.

  The sound of jade pendants ringing, soon a beautiful woman emerged from the doorway, slender and tall in stature, dressed in luxurious attire.

  "How beautiful!"

  "Not one bit inferior to Miss Zixing!"

  "Been there, done that!"

  "In my opinion, Princess Water Moon is the most deserving of being called the number one beauty!"

  After a moment of astonishment, everyone began to speak in hushed tones. As the top talents selected from the eight major cities, their mental cultivation was naturally extremely powerful. They could appreciate beauty, but they would never be infatuated with it.

  That beautiful woman indeed has a figure like an immortal, especially since she was born into royalty, with a natural noble air that makes people involuntarily feel reverence and only want to kneel at her feet and acknowledge allegiance.

  She walked with a gentle and elegant gait, each step she took was extremely beautiful, fully revealing the majestic and noble demeanor of royalty.

  If it were possible to conquer a woman who exudes an aura of nobility from every pore, what kind of satisfaction would that be? All men simultaneously have such thoughts, and for a martial arts genius like this one, who is no longer bewildered by feminine charm, conquering an outstanding beauty would be the ultimate satisfaction!

  This can even bring about progress in martial arts!

  For a moment, all the men's eyes on Princess Mizuki were scorching hot, with her outstanding looks and royal nobility, forming an enchanting charm that made people infatuated.

  "This is Nangong Yue Rong, I'm delighted to have all of you talented individuals from the national university here today. I'm truly thrilled! Please, take your seats!" As Nangong Yue Rong walked up to her position, she raised her jade-like hand slightly, and her voice was powerful yet gentle on the ears, a true delight to listen to.

  Everyone took their seats, except for the main seat of Nangong Yue Xiang, each seat had ten people, and it was inevitable to sit together with unfamiliar or even unpleasant people.

  Like Zhou Heng, there were also Jing Tian and Liu Shengjie on this seat, as well as another from the Black Water Temple, named Luo Yi, who came with Liu Shengjie's identity. He was a new person who had been intensively cultivated by the master of the three temples, San Ling San Chong Tian Zhenfeng, at just 24 years old.

  Unfortunately, the competition for the ten places was too fierce, and two dark horses, Zhou Heng and Jing Tian, emerged one after another. Luo Yi was eliminated by Jing Tian early on and could only attend the Grand Primordial Assembly as Liu Shengjie's attendant.

  This naturally made Luo Yi feel displeased, and his gaze at Jing Tian was filled with resentment.

  Among the other three people, there was surprisingly also a Gu Lu. Although she had a sweet smile on her face, everyone could feel the undercurrents between her and Gu Zi.

  The wine party began, and a large space was cleared in the hall. There were palace maids dancing, as well as acrobatic performances by the theater troupe, making it very lively.

  Everyone raised their cups and took turns drinking, the atmosphere was extremely lively.

  "Ladies and gentlemen, I've invited everyone here today not only to entertain you all, but also to make an announcement!" Nangong Yue Xiang clapped her hands, and the entire palace immediately fell silent. Her cultivation at the peak of the Three Realms was definitely among the top three in the room, and with her status as the current princess, no one dared to underestimate her.

  Everyone's eyes were on her.

  "This thing, it should be bad news!" Nangong Yuexiang sighed, a worried look appearing on her white jade-like face, saying, "Everyone came for the Great Prosperity Banquet, and this problem also occurred at the Great Prosperity Banquet!"

  "What's wrong with Princess Shuizhuyue?" someone asked loudly.

  Nangong Yuehong paused for a moment, saying: "Everyone knows that in the past, the Daxuan Sect was the number one power in the country of Hansheng. After its sudden collapse, the protective mountain array was activated, and it only has a weak period every 18 years, allowing warriors below the initial separation realm to enter."

  Everyone nodded, and Zhou Heng was not surprised. He had also recently learned about the specific origin of the Daxian Sect from An Yumei's mouth.

  Thousands of years ago, the behind-the-scenes ruler of the Han Cang country was actually the Taiyuan Sect, not the Tianxing Sect. However, due to a mysterious and dramatic change, the entire Taiyuan Sect became extinct, allowing the Tianxing Sect to rise to power.

  The Tiān Xīng Sect was originally the second most powerful sect after the Dà Yuán Sect, so it's normal for them to take over. However, the national power of Hán Cāng Country has declined significantly. Originally, the Dà Yuán Sect had a strong master who sat at the Mountain and River Boundary, but by the time of the Tiān Xīng Sect's generation, the strongest was only at the Kāi Tiān Boundary.

  That year, the Da Yan Sect was destroyed in a mysterious and inexplicable way. No one knew what had happened or how it had occurred, whether they had offended some super powerful being or something else. In short, everything was a mystery.

  However, it can be certain that there are countless treasures inside Daxianzong, and they have always been there!

  This sect has dominated the Cold Sky Country for tens of thousands of years, or even longer. The foundation is not something that the Tianxing Sect can match. Therefore, everyone wants to go in and make a profit! Unfortunately, the Mountain Protection Array was set up by the strong men of the Shanhe Border at the beginning, and under automatic operation, even if someone from the Opening Heaven Realm comes, they will be instantly killed.

  If one could invite an extraordinary expert from the Spiritual Sea Realm, then breaking through the formation would be easy as turning over one's hand. However, since it is the Spiritual Sea Realm, wouldn't they look down on the humble accumulation of a Mountain and River Realm sect? Would they not find it beneath them to come with such fanfare?

  Fortunately, the Hushan Great Array has a weak period every eighteen years, allowing warriors in the initial separation realm and gathering spirit realm to enter. Those in the body refinement realm can also enter, but what's the point of entering with such low strength?

  Just because you can enter doesn't mean it's safe inside!

  Danger is danger, but if you can pick up some treasure from it, the harvest will be incredibly surprising, and even change a person's life!

  That's why the quota for the Da Yun Sheng Hui is so precious.

  Since Nan Gong Yue Rong brought up the matter of Da Yan Sect, it's clear that the problem lies here, involving their own interests. Everyone has become tense, staring intently at this heavenly noblewoman.

  "This year's Guardian Array is slightly weaker, but extremely unstable. According to the calculations of Master Jiu Hu, this time we can only enter at most one hundred and fifty people. Otherwise, it will cause an array shockwave, resulting in irreversible consequences... Everyone will be instantly wiped out!"

  Nangong Yuexiang finally spoke out the bad news.

  "What? Only 150 people can enter?"

  "The eight major cities plus the Tianxing Sect, this time there are more than 300 people! Now only half can enter, how to allocate?"

  "But since it's what Master Jiu Hu said, then it must be true!"

  "That's right, Master Jiu Hu is the most powerful formation master in the country, he absolutely won't make a mistake!"

  "It's inevitable that there will be a fierce battle!"

  Nangong Yuehong waved her hand, signaling everyone to quiet down, and said: "After discussion among the seniors of our sect, we have made the following decision: all primary boundary warriors can enter the ruins, but they are not allowed to bring followers. I calculated that there are a total of 147 people, leaving only three places left for all the gathering spirit realm cultivators to fight over!"

  Her words fell, and the whole venue was silent.

  It's already like this, and complaining is meaningless. This world respects the strong, so naturally they have to prioritize the martial artists who are about to break through the First Layer. In fact, all the martial artists from the Gathering Spirit Realm who came over this time are under 30 years old, so as long as they can break through the First Layer, they will still have a chance to participate in the Grand Primordial Concert again.

  Besides, there are three more places available.

  Then let's fight it out and see who is the king of this generation in the Gathering Spirit Realm!

  "Those who are willing to participate, go to the arena tomorrow. We must decide on three candidates within three days. The day of the opening of the Taiyuan Sect's relic is approaching, and we can't afford to waste any more time!" Nangong Yue added.

  Everyone nodded in agreement, and the strong ones who had just broken through to the Initial Boundary naturally sat on the Fishing Platform, while the Martial Artists of the Gathering Spirit Boundary were rubbing their fists and palms. It wasn't that only the first place in each city had a chance to take these three quotas, just like Zhou Heng, many people entered the top ten and then didn't go all out again.

  This time they have to go all out!

  Fine, let's see who is the king of this generation's Spirit Gathering Realm! To know that this has never happened before, if we can get first place, what kind of glory would it be?

  "Furthermore—" Nangong Yue Xiang's beautiful eyes flowed with anticipation, staring at Zhou Heng's body, instantly forming a terrifying pressure. "Young Master Zhou, I heard you want to use 1,000 spirit stones to buy this palace?"
