Fairy, dreams shouldn't be taken seriously.

Honestly, what happened last night?

"What else could happen? It's just that kind of thing, don't you understand?"

As he spoke, Fan Zui put his arm around her neck, and the two walked outside.

His actions instantly disrupted Yu Linglong's thoughts.

"You? You dare?"

Orange spoke sarcastically and mercilessly.

"Oh, really? Why don't you try it another day?"

"You little brat, you're probably lustful beyond measure, but you only dare to talk the talk."

"is it?"

Fan Zui reached out and hugged her, as lightly as a boat drifting on clouds.

Yu Linglong seemed to transform into a soft petal, delicate and boneless.

Her body pressed against his chest, like a gentle breeze caressing his face, as if enveloping his heart in warmth.

He held her waist tightly, feeling her warmth and softness.

The two of them went together to the venue of today's Imperial Capital Kung Fu Innovation Competition.

This is a huge square, capable of accommodating 500,000 people.

All kinds of sporting events in the capital city are held here.

Of course, this is also a small world.

It is under the jurisdiction of the royal family.

A huge training ground stands there, large enough to hold 500,000 people.

Surrounded by mountains on all sides and shrouded in a clear blue sky, it is like a fairyland on earth.

The training ground was paved with hard marble, smooth as a mirror, reflecting the fiery red sunset.

The training ground is surrounded by tall and sturdy stands, where spectators sit and await this thrilling martial arts event.

The audience was excited and noisy, eagerly anticipating the free martial arts demonstration that was about to take place.

Many people were dressed in gorgeous costumes and held exquisite jade fans, showcasing the grandeur and prestige of the event.

In the center of the training ground is a wide arena, slightly elevated, like a lion perched atop the domain.

This is the most important arena for combat.

When the two arrived, the place was already packed with people.

At a glance, there are at least two or three hundred thousand people.

They are all practitioners.

The spiritual energy in the world is becoming increasingly scarce, and there are fewer and fewer cultivators, making it increasingly difficult to break through to higher levels.

However, the capital city is a place where talents from all over the world gather, so it is not surprising that there are so many cultivators.

"Let's go, I'll take you to the chief's office."

Yu Linglong couldn't help but feel a little angry when she thought of the brat's audacity earlier.

I never expected him to actually dare to do it.

Sometimes, she understood the boy less and less.

Thinking back to the arrangements made by that World Destroyer, her feelings became increasingly complicated.

Her fate was already sealed.

Although the surroundings were bustling, for some reason she felt out of place.

She longs to ride horses on the grasslands, to have her own grasslands and her own horses, to do whatever she wants.

Unfortunately, that kind of free life was ultimately just a pipe dream for her, something she could only long for but never reach.

I really want to ride a horse...

From childhood to adulthood, and even now, her life and destiny have been predetermined, leaving her no room for choice.

That's why she longs for freedom!

No one can understand that feeling.

Chapter 118 [The Second Prince's Goodwill]

The Kung Fu Innovation Competition is held every three years, and each time it is a grand event in the capital.

Countless practitioners will come to watch or participate.

If you take a fancy to the martial arts technique created by any of them, you can exchange it for treasures.

The top three techniques and the top one hundred techniques will be collected into the royal treasury and studied and improved by a professional team of masters.

Thus, the cultivation methods and techniques of the Qian Yuan Empire are numerous and profound.

This is why the Qian Yuan Empire has far more cultivators than the Northern Barbarians.

The Qian Yuan Empire valued military prowess, established its nation through military force, and conquered the world, achieving victory in every battle.

The Southern Barbarian Empire, however, values ​​literature. The only literary sage in the world resides in the Southern Barbarian Kingdom, making it the aspiration of all scholars.

It is said that this literary sage could speak eloquently and fluently, each word possessing immense power and influence.

The three major families in the capital: the Fan family, the Yan family, and the Lin family.

The royal family is no longer among the three major families.

The Fan family specifically refers to the current regent, and the former number one swordsman in the world, Fan Jian.

Although he is the emperor's younger brother, his power and influence are too great, thus placing him independent of the three major families.

When referring to the three major families, the royal family is generally not included.

Because the royal family rightfully deserves to be ranked first.

"Today's competition will be hosted by the Second Prince. If you see anyone later, remember to be polite."

As Yu Linglong introduced the product, she also gave some instructions.

The second prince, named Fan Er, is a strong contender for the throne and the only rival of the current crown prince.

Over the years, these two have been locked in a fierce and protracted struggle for the throne in the imperial court, with neither side able to gain the upper hand.

"Unlike the Crown Prince, this Second Prince seems to be incapable of cultivation, but he is extremely cunning and scheming."

In the capital, many people were secretly discussing that the Crown Prince's talent was less than half that of the Second Prince, and his cunning and shrewdness were far inferior.

Hearing what Yu Linglong said, Fan Zui couldn't help but say:

"It seems that this second prince is indeed not simple."

Throughout history, it has been extremely rare for a prince to completely overshadow the crown prince.

Yu Linglong led Fan Zui toward the location of the three major families, the Fan family, while continuing to explain the situation in the capital to him.

"This Crown Prince seems to be quite modest, always yielding to the Second Prince and unwilling to fight with him."

Therefore, in most of the clashes, the second prince won.

As a result, in just a few years, the second prince's power rose extremely rapidly, and he amassed a group of court officials who strongly supported him.

Fan Zui paused for a moment, then suddenly asked in a low voice:

"Have there been any rumors or gossip about the Crown Prince changing hands over the years?"

Such blunt and blasphemous words startled Yu Linglong, who then shook her head and said:

"That's not true."

Fan Zui nodded and said, "Go on."

"Your nemesis, Yan Bingyun, is under the Crown Prince's command."

"What fated enemy?"

Fan Zui sighed and rubbed his forehead. This kind of thing, a fated enemy, is the most troublesome thing.

Because that means you could easily kill your opponent.

However, you must always be on guard against the other party's schemes and sneak attacks.

Moreover, these kinds of enemies are often very difficult to deal with.

They aren't like those mindless villains who just pick out enemies to get themselves killed.

For these major villains, using others to do their dirty work is just a basic game of make-believe.

They'll play games you'd never even imagine.

Seeing that he seemed quite troubled, Liu Ruyu finally smiled.

"What, are you scared?"
