As the prince entered the reception room, Ye Xiangti and Ye Xiangxiao felt their eyes were not enough.
At this twilight hour, the sunstone in the center of the living room casts golden sunlight, and a dozen moonstones cast soft silver light, illuminating every detail of the huge living room.
The living room decoration is elegant yet rich, grand yet detailed, magnificent and ingenious.
The host and the guest took their seats, the Prince's tutor sat above the Prince with his hands hanging down, and Ye Xiangyang sat below the Prince with his hands hanging down.
There are eight dishes, including cold dishes and hot stir-fries, four meat dishes and four vegetarian dishes. They are just right in terms of color matching and other aspects.
The prince smiled slightly and raised his wine glass: "Master Ye, Master Yun, if we count from the older generation, Lord Ye and Lord Yun assisted my great grandfather in conquering the world. They shook the nine states with their halberds and made great contributions. They were famous generals and loyal ministers of our Nine States Empire. If we count from our generation, we can be considered as close brothers."
The four men stood up and bowed, saying, "We dare not."
This is as it should be. If Ye Xiangyang hadn't revealed his identity as a disciple of the Danding Divine Sect, you would have been just a commoner under the rule of the crown prince.
The prince pulled Ye Xiangyang towards the three of them and said, "Come, come, sit down. Let me say this today. We are all close brothers. I am older, so please come to my house. Today I will offer a toast to the four brothers. Teacher, please drink slowly. I am a little rude."
The Prince's tutor laughed and said, "Prince, you young people can drink as much as you want. This old man is called drinking slowly and leisurely."
After three rounds of wine, the dishes have five flavors.
The Prince's tutor took out a list and said, "Master Ye, this is our Jiuzhou Empire Talent List, also known as the Jiuzhou Talent List. Your news has not really spread yet, so you are not on this list. These are the top fifty masters."
Ye Xiangyang's eyes lit up. It was worth the trip to be able to compete with these young talents of the Jiuzhou Empire and see the geniuses of these big families and big forces.
The Prince's tutor handed over the list.
"Dan Ding Divine Sect wants to select thirty people from among them, so the people on the list will definitely participate. Each of these people is a martial artist with firm beliefs, and they will not give up such a great opportunity."
Ye Xiangyang looked at the first on the Talent List: Dragon Marshal's son, Duanmu Ao. This man went to the battlefield at the age of nine, and has been fighting on the battlefield for eight years. He is known as the Iron-blooded Young General and the God of War. He has practiced the Golden Dragon Tactics to a very high level, and is now a Mystic General. The exact number of stars is not clear, but it is very likely that he has broken through to one star.
Seeing this message, Ye Xiangyang couldn't help but gasp. Just think about it, an adult fighting on the battlefield, and at the level of a Xuan General, you can imagine how terrifying this person is.
The second one: Hu Shuai’s son, Hu Ba. He also went to the battlefield at the age of nine. He fought hard for nine years on the battlefield of Yunmeng Prefecture in the west. He practiced the White Tiger Thousand Jun Technique to a certain level and was on par with Duanmu Ao.
The third one: Han Yang from the Han family of Tianhe Prefecture. Three years ago, Han Yang single-handedly broke into Xiaoyao Village of Tianhe Prefecture and eliminated harm for the people. It is said that the chief of Xiaoyao Village, Xuanshi Jiuxing, died at the hands of Han Yang...
Fourth place: Hua Zheng of Chengxiang Chamber of Commerce…
Fifth place: Yuan Dingtian of the Yuan family…
The top ten are all at the Xuanjiang level.
Ye Xiangyang understood that he had a low starting point. Others had their families shave their hair and cleanse their marrow from a very young age to lay the foundation, and they began planned training early on.
It is not surprising that they can become Xuanjiang level by relying on the huge resources of their family.
He had too little time for cultivation, only one year, but he was able to advance to the ninth level of Xuanshi and the third level of Xuanshi. With the advancement of one star per month, this speed was unprecedented.
Although he had once killed the mysterious general Fanjiang Gui, Fanjiang Gui would have been defeated miserably compared to these geniuses. If he wanted to win this competition, he really needed to speed up his studies.
The only way to speed up the pace is to fight to the death.
The prince smiled as he watched Ye Xiangyang finish reading the list of talented people, and said, "I wonder what you think, brother?"
"There are hidden dragons and crouching tigers. The Jiuzhou Empire is really full of hidden dragons and crouching tigers."
The prince smiled slightly: "But there is really no one like you who has risen to prominence in a year. You must work harder this time. I look forward to you creating miracles again."
Talking and laughing, he brought Ye Xiangyang to a house, opened the door, and placed a basin-sized purple-gold demon beast inner pill inside. Smelling this scent, the little golden turtle poked its head out from Ye Xiangyang's chest, staring at the purple demon beast inner pill with its round little eyes.
“Wow, this is the inner elixir of the purple-gold black tortoise, which is at the peak of the Mystical Beast level. If I take this inner elixir, I will definitely be able to be promoted to the level of a Mystical Beast.”
Ye Xiangyang didn't hesitate to take the inner elixir of the mysterious beast.
At the request of the prince, Ye Xiangxiao and Ye Xiangti stayed in the prince's palace. Becoming the prince's people was a step up for them. As the saying goes, the followers of the princes are second-rank officials, let alone the followers of the prince, let alone the prince who presides over the country's affairs.
Ye Xiangyang lived in a small courtyard prepared for them by the prince.
The prince ordered his men to arrange accommodation for Ye Xiangxiao and his brother, and sent them away. He smiled and brought a cup of tea to the prince's tutor: "Teacher, what do you think?"
The Prince's tutor had a serious look on his face. "Your Highness, this man is not a normal person. He can transform into a dragon when the wind and clouds are strong. The dragon I'm talking about is not referring to the country. The country may not be able to hold this kid's heart. Think about it, Dan Ding Shen Zong gave his Ye family thousands of acres of Xuan Ling rice to grow. What does this mean? It means that Dan Ding Shen Zong has taken a fancy to him."
"Ye Xiangyang will enter the Danding Divine Sect sooner or later."
The prince nodded and said, "Teacher, do you think he has any connection with the King of Zhengxi?"
The Prince's tutor did not answer his question, but asked: "I don't know what the prince thought. He didn't say a word at that time. The ancients said: The people are the most important."
The prince nodded. He said this sentence two or three times.
The Prince's tutor nodded and said, "Prince, think about it. Ye Xiangyang traveled thousands of miles to save his father, which shows that he values family affection. The ancients said: Those who are filial and brotherly, but like to offend their superiors, are rare; those who do not like to offend their superiors, but like to make trouble, have never existed. The Ye family is not very good to Ye Xiangyang. We found out that before the age of fourteen, the family hardly helped him. However, Ye Xiangyang did his best for the family. Since he said that the people are the most important, it means that as long as it is beneficial to the family, the country and the people, he will do it. Your Highness and the Emperor have worked hard to govern the country in recent years..."
The prince nodded and said, "Master, even so, the people are still living in poverty. Half of the country's money has been given to others."
In the Long Marshal's residence, Long Marshal asked the best pharmacist to check the pills. The pharmacist looked at the pills and nodded, saying, "Marshal, if this method is used, and General Dong stays in seclusion for a while, it will really have the effect that the pharmacist said."
Long Shuai looked at Dong Bao and said, "Are you sure that he made all these medicines himself?"
Dong Bao said, "General, I'm not sure about this one, but he said: Barrier Breaking Pill, I can't make it with my current level, you should find someone else to make it. I guess this person is the alchemist."
"What's more, so many pills are worth a lot of money. This is a great favor to me."
Long Shuai nodded: "No wonder the prince respects this man so much. Just think about it, a kid who has just entered martial arts training for a year can make such earth-shaking achievements. He can become a two-star treasure hunter and an alchemist. This kid has a bright future."
Marshal Long was amazed, and Marshal Hu was also amazed.
General Hu read the information given to him by Zuoqiu Weitong, and heard everything that happened in the Kunding City barracks today. He slammed the table and said, "If I had known this, I would have gone there in person to invite him over."
The Chengxiang Chamber of Commerce did not dare to spread the news. They knew clearly what they could and could not say after being in the important capital for such a long time. Qiu Yuan was even more afraid to say it. Ye Xiangyang had become a curse in his heart.
The people of the eight major families gnashed their teeth, how could they tolerate their family members being injured like this? If they didn't take revenge, it would be difficult to eliminate the hatred in their hearts.
Yun Jianhan has now reached the peak of the four-star Xuan Master level. The dragon bone relic in his dantian continuously provides endless energy, which has increased his cultivation progress several times.
As the benefits of following Ye Xiangyang became more and more apparent, he became more and more satisfied.
Ye Xiangyang had already entered the depths of the Nine-Angled Black Tortoise Cauldron and sat cross-legged in the blood pool.
While absorbing the abundant energy in the blood pool, he took out the Purple Crystal Black Turtle Essence Pill, which was made by extracting the essence of the black tortoise, using the Black Turtle Demon Pill and dozens of other medicines.
By taking this medicine, one's Wushen Tiangong's progress can be accelerated, and perhaps one can even reach the fourth star of Xuanshi.
Although Ye Xiangyang had earth element spiritual roots and water element spiritual roots, and later used dragon bone relics to grow wood element spiritual roots, he had three relics in his dantian.
It's time for a promotion, but I don't know why I haven't been promoted yet.
Ye Xiangyang put the pill, which was emitting purple light and fragrance and had an illusory little turtle swimming around inside, into his mouth. Magnificent energy immediately emanated from the pill.
The energy surged, rushing to every part of his body, and a strong blood force rushed into every cell in his body.
The Martial God Heavenly Art and the Mysterious God Heavenly Art were running quickly, and some black dirt was discharged from Ye Xiangyang's body again. With a crackling sound, something like a mysterious tortoise shell entity almost formed behind Ye Xiangyang.
Ye Xiangyang felt a burning sensation, as if his whole body was burning in a raging fire. He knew that it was the energy of the Purple Gold Black Turtle Essence Pill that was transforming his body.
Crack, crack, the barrier was like ice, and the sound of breaking could be heard.
Huh, endless energy rushed into Ye Xiangyang's body and he broke through to the fourth-star martial artist.
Then endless energy gathered in the Dantian, and the mysterious power formed a cold black snake, which crashed into the barrier. With persistent impact, it finally broke through.
Xuanshi four stars.
Each of the three spiritual roots, through the training of Xuanshen Tiangong and Wushen Tiangong, can double the strength of people of the same level. Now Ye Xiangyang has a strength of twenty-four thousand.
Xuanshi finally advanced to four stars.
Let’s go to the big competition venue tomorrow and see what the situation is there.
