C332 Sikong Xuan
"That's right. I have also heard about it. It is said that Sikong Xuan has now moved into the Imperial Palace and is enjoying the treatment of a first-class VIP."
"Sikong Xuan is Vice Sect Leader of the Qing-Yun Sect's personal disciple. It's said that... His cultivation base was the same as Wei Zhentian, reaching the True Martial Peak Stage. His strength is the strongest in the entire Qing-Yun Sect, not to mention compared to us, the people from the subordinate countries of the Qing-Yun Sect. Even the leader of the The four prodigies of the Qing-Yun Realm, Wei Zhentian, might not be a match for Sikong Xuan. Looks like there are still variables in this Joust For A Spouse Festival!"
The news of Sikong Xuan's arrival in the Zhao State swept across the entire Imperial City like a Hurricane, spreading through the mouths of many people.
At the same time, it made the Joust For A Spouse Festival even more exciting.
Within the Tianxuan Mansion, Ye Feng was still cultivating with his legs crossed. After two days of refinement and integration, Ye Feng had basically absorbed all the energy that he had absorbed from Wu Ze's body.
At this moment, the surface of Ye Feng's body was covered by a faint layer of light. It was dazzling, and waves of strange energy were surging on the surface of his body.
It turned into strange lines that continuously interweaved together.
Within his body, Ye Feng's elemental energy had become even purer and more powerful. It had vaguely reached the peak of True Martial level 2.
With just a little bit of effort, Ye Feng would be able to take that final step. Without any hesitation, Ye Feng immediately took out a pill from his Storage Ring that could help him improve his cultivation base and swallowed it.
With the help of the effect of the pill, Ye Feng began to try to break through. The medicinal strength of the pill flowed through all the meridians in Ye Feng's body and merged with the elemental energy. It kept nourishing Ye Feng's muscles, bones, and blood vessels, strengthening his neixi.
After an unknown period of time, with a burst of light shining around the peak body, all the meridians in his body were connected at this moment. Compared to before, it had expanded several times, and could contain even more elemental energy flowing inside. All aspects of his body had been improved.
Ye Feng slowly stopped his cultivation. He stood up, and the aura on his body became even more restrained, giving off a profound feeling. His pair of deep pupils became even more vast, like an endless starry sky.
"I have finally broken through. My current strength has improved by quite a bit. With my current strength, I should be able to defeat an ordinary Peak Genuine Force Warriors with ease."
A smile emerged on Ye Feng's face as he spoke with satisfaction.
Currently, he was able to defeat Peak Genuine Force Warriors with just a cultivation base of the Third True Martial, and he was able to fight Peak Genuine Force Warriors with a cultivation base that was six levels higher than him. He was afraid that there wouldn't be a second genius amongst the young generation of the Greencloud Region.
"I spent three days cultivating this time. Today should be the day of the Royal Family's Joust For A Spouse Festival."
Looking at the ray of morning light that came from outside the window, Ye Feng said faintly. He would never forget this important day. When he thought about the last time he met Zhao Xinyi and the look of expectation from his second daughter, Ye Feng knew he had to work hard. In the Joust For A Spouse Festival, he had to give it his all.
Ye Feng walked out of his room. He walked out of the Tianxuan Mansion alone and headed towards the direction of the Imperial Palace. What awaited him was a serious test.
The Imperial Family of the State of Zhao Imperial Palace.
After the Emperor Board Dao Discussion ended, the Joust For A Spouse Festival that was about to begin could be said to be the second golden age. In terms of scale, the Joust For A Spouse Festival was even better.
The top geniuses of the various powers of the Greencloud Region were gathered on the fighting stage to fight for the chance to marry the number one beauty of the Greencloud Region, Princess Xinyi.
In a grand hall in the Imperial Palace, King of the State of Zhao was sitting on top of a Dragon Throne. His golden dragon robe was emitting waves of majestic aura, and his body was surrounded by a powerful imperial aura. It made people feel like they were submitting to him just by looking at him.
On the opposite side of the Sovereign King Seat stood a middle-aged man in a gorgeous robe.
This middle-aged man was the one who had received the Sovereign King's request back then, but the Tianxuan Mansion had given Ye Feng the required ingredients to concoct the medicament.
This ambassador was a prime minister in the court, and he held a high position in power. His name was "Zhong Ren." He was the king's confidant for decades, and he was extremely loyal to the king.
Because of this, the king trusted Zhong Ren and let him handle some important matters.
For example, Zhong Ren was the only one who knew about the healing of the medicament that Ye Feng had concocted. Even First Prince, Zhao Yang, and Prince didn't know about it.
It could be seen how important Zhong Ren's position in Zhao Ye's heart was.
"This old official saw that the Sovereign King's strength has basically recovered. This is something worth celebrating!"
Zhong Ren had a smile on his face as he bowed respectfully to the Sovereign King and said.
In these twenty plus days, Zhong Ren felt like he had witnessed a miracle.
The Sovereign King had been injured by the Black Evil Palm for many years, but he was unable to receive any treatment. His injuries had worsened, and during this year, his life had been in danger. All the famous doctors were at a loss for what to do.
However, at this moment, in just a mere twenty days, the injuries that had troubled the Sovereign King for so many years had actually been completely cured. There was no other reason. The Sovereign King had consumed the medicament concocted by that young man called Ye Feng, and that was why he had obtained such a miraculous effect.
All of these were unbelievable. If Zhong Ren hadn't witnessed it with his own eyes, he would never have believed that all of this was real.
"This is all thanks to Ye Feng's holy medicine!"
The Sovereign King's beard turned green, and his face was flushed red. He said, "Zhong Ren, bring this Sovereign King's Imperial Decree to the venue of the Joust For A Spouse Festival. This Sovereign King wants to confer this title to Ye Feng. If it wasn't for Ye Feng, I'm afraid that this Sovereign King would have died a long time ago!"
The Sovereign King's voice was somewhat agitated. After getting rid of the Black Fury Qi, the Sovereign King felt a sense of relief. Finally, a huge rock that was pressing down on his chest was removed. This was truly a pleasant feeling!
All of this was given to him by Ye Feng. It was equivalent to giving him a new life. Therefore, the Sovereign King wanted to thank Ye Feng properly.
"It's what I should do, it's what I should do!"
When he heard that the king was going to confer a title to Ye Feng, Zhong Ren couldn't help but nod his head repeatedly. After that, the king took the brush, ink, and paper in front of him and wrote a conferring order, handing it over to Zhong Ren.
Zhong Ren took the conferring order and walked out of the hall, heading to the venue where the spouse finding martial competition was held.
Princess Zhao Xinyi's spouse finding martial competition was a gathering of experts from all over the Imperial City, but the place where the spouse finding martial competition was held was in the Imperial Palace.
If one wanted to enter the Imperial Palace to participate in the real Joust For A Spouse Festival, they would have to go through a screening process. It wasn't like what the Sovereign King had said, as long as one was below the age of twenty-five, they would be able to enter as long as their cultivation base reached the True Martial Stage. After all, the spouse was a princess, and her status was extremely prestigious.
If anyone could participate in the spouse finding competition, it would be detrimental to the Royal Family's reputation.
First of all, those who participated in the spouse finding martial competition must be True Martial Stage experts below the age of 25. Secondly, the participants must be healthy people with proper facial features. Thirdly, the participants must have a certain family background. If these three conditions were not met, no matter how strong the participants were, they would not be qualified to participate.
At this moment, at the entrance of the palace, there were officials in charge of the audition. Only those who passed their audition were qualified to enter the palace. Because of this, thousands of young cultivators gathered at the auditions, waiting for the auditions.
When Ye Feng arrived, the guards at the front saw that Ye Feng had come alone. They didn't have any servants or followers, so they looked down on him. They said to Ye Feng, "Let's go there and have the audition. If you pass, you will be qualified to participate in the Joust For A Spouse Festival."
Seeing that many people needed to participate in the audition, Ye Feng did not argue with the two guards and walked straight to the audition area.
A moment later, there was a commotion in the crowd. Not far away, three groups of people were approaching from different directions. The three groups of people were dressed in different clothes, but they were all very stylish. Each group of people was guarded by Peak Genuine Force Warriors.
That kind of aura wasn't any weaker than those big shots who had just arrived. It also added a few Emperor aura.
"It's Prince of Wei, Wei Zhentian, City Lord of Sky City's son, Huang Yanming. Prince can't even measure the Liang. The three great heroes have come together! This Joust For A Spouse Festival is really exciting! "
An expert immediately recognized the identity of the people from the three major powers. A touch of excitement immediately emerged on his face.
After all, with their status, it wasn't easy for them to see the three heroes of the Greencloud Region at the same time.
Ye Feng also looked at A powerhouse from the three major powers.
He saw Wei Zhentian, Huang Yanming, and Liang Bupo in their respective groups.
When the people from the three major powers were about to arrive, Wei Zhentian and the other two soon found Ye Feng among the crowd.
"Father's speculation is right. As expected, Thief has appeared here!"
When Huang Yanming saw Ye Feng again, a terrifying cold light was unleashed from his eyes, and it was filled with a cold killing intent.
However, he also knew that this place wasn't like the Sky City, and it wasn't convenient for him to kill someone in public. Therefore, Huang Yanming temporarily canceled his plan to kill Ye Feng.
"Trash, what are you doing here?"
Wei Zhentian squinted his eyes. He had already heard about what Ye Feng had done in Wei Country. He wished he could shred Ye Feng into a million pieces right now.
"If you can come, why can't I?"
Ye Feng sneered. His eyes met Wei Zhentian's. He wasn't suppressed by the aura released from Wei Zhentian's body. Instead, he seemed incomparably calm.
"After today, Princess Xinyi will marry into my Wei Country. I will settle the score with you after I seize the number one spot in this Joust For A Spouse Festival!"
Wei Zhentian said to Ye Feng coldly. His sharp eyes seemed to be releasing a sharp light. Then, he pulled the reins of his horse and rode towards the main gate of the Imperial Palace.
"Trash, i, Huang Yanming, will make you pay the most painful price for what you did to the Sky City!"
Before he left, Huang Yanming spoke to Ye Feng coldly. His hatred for Ye Feng was not any weaker than Wei Zhentian's.
"I will wait!"
Ye Feng replied coldly.
Liang Bupo walked past Ye Feng with a disdainful smile.
