Chapter 185: Talent
As Bi Yue and Xiu Hua felt the power surge towards them from Heavenly Dragon Emperor, their eyes filled with determination. The two sisters did not want to disgrace Kaiyuan Imperial Court, even though they were the adopted daughters of Primal Origin Emperor.
Just as everyone thought Bi Yue and Xiu Hua were about to be sent flying by Heavenly Dragon Emperor once again, a cold snort directly exploded in their ears. That cold snort went straight towards the power emanating from Heavenly Dragon Emperor.
With a ’boom,’ a roar echoed in the air.
"I truly didn’t expect it. You, a dignified Emperor, attacking a junior. You really have a lot of nerve." The newcomer was precisely Primal Origin Emperor.
Feeling the arrival of Primal Origin Emperor, Heavenly Dragon Emperor also looked at him coldly and then said,
"Your Kaiyuan Imperial Court disciples disregard rules and lack etiquette. I am merely disciplining them on your behalf, Emperor." Heavenly Dragon Emperor said.
"Hmph, I don’t know where my two daughters lacked etiquette. This Emperor admits that my daughters can be a bit rough sometimes, but they would never intentionally provoke someone. Heavenly Dragon Emperor, you must not go against the facts with your words. There are so many people watching here." Primal Origin Emperor said.
But at this moment, Heavenly Dragon Emperor had fallen silent.
Bi Yue and Xiu Hua stood up and told Primal Origin Emperor everything that had just happened.
After listening to Bi Yue and Xiu Hua, Primal Origin Emperor smiled.
"Hahahaha, you did nothing wrong. Some people are just too disappointing, that’s all. All the disciples saw it, so I don’t need to say more. Alright, you two, be a bit more sensible. Sometimes, you need to endure and not be impulsive. Impulsiveness is the devil, and what’s terrifying is when you encounter an unreasonable devil. Of course, I’m not just talking about Bi Yue and Xiu Hua; all my Kaiyuan Imperial Court disciples are the same. Heavenly Dragon Emperor, do you think I’m right?" Primal Origin Emperor finished speaking to Bi Yue and Xiu Hua, then raised his head and looked at Heavenly Dragon Emperor.
Heavenly Dragon Emperor knew that Primal Origin Emperor was intentionally mocking him. He said nothing and walked towards the seats reserved for the Five Great Imperial Courts in the center.
Seeing this, Primal Origin Emperor didn’t care. Whether Heavenly Dragon Emperor spoke or not, it was the same. He also walked towards those seats.
After about half an hour, everyone had arrived at their seats in the central plaza.
The Five Great Imperial Courts were in the central positions, while the other elders and deacons sat at the very front of their respective areas, with the participating disciples sitting behind them.
However, in the area where the elders were located, an old man from Jidao Imperial Court was quite eye-catching.
"Extreme Dao Emperor Lord, I haven’t seen that elder before. Could it be someone new you’ve invited to your Jidao Imperial Court?" Heavenly Dragon Emperor said in a sarcastic tone.
Hearing Heavenly Dragon Emperor’s words, Changtian merely scratched his ear and did not reply. He was already annoyed to death by Heavenly Dragon Emperor.
Seeing Changtian not answering him, Heavenly Dragon Emperor’s expression turned somewhat ugly.
"Alright, alright, Heavenly Dragon Emperor, no more talking. The grand competition is about to begin." Ye Lingtian said.
A red-skirted woman, with a graceful figure, swayed her way onto the competition stage.
"First, on behalf of our Tiandao Imperial Court, I welcome everyone’s arrival. I hope all participating disciples perform well. Next, I will announce the first event of today’s grand competition. First, we will conduct the talent test. This is a new assessment item that several Emperors discussed and added this year."
After speaking, the red-skirted woman took out a crystal-clear jade stone, which flowed like water on its surface.
The disciples of the Five Great Imperial Courts began to whisper when they saw this.
"Who is this red-skirted woman? She’s really captivating! Damn, if only I could get a taste."
"What are you thinking, kid? You want to take her down? I heard this red-skirted woman is a new elder from Tiandao Imperial Court. Don’t let her youth fool you. She’s probably old enough to be your grandmother."
"Ah, Senior Brother, no way. She doesn’t look that old. Her sexy figure doesn’t look like an old woman at all."
"Don’t be fooled by her appearance. I heard that someone once tried to take advantage of her because she looked young, and she directly took his ’root.’ If you don’t want to lose your ’thing,’ you can try it. Besides, her strength is Earth Immortal Realm. You haven’t even reached Earth Immortal Realm. If she wants you to come, I doubt your small body could handle it."
After hearing his senior brother’s words, the disciple obediently shut his mouth.
At this moment on the competition stage, the red-skirted woman directly placed the jade stone in her hand onto a stone platform.
After she finished speaking, the competition officially began.
In the area where Jidao Imperial Court was located, Wang Yufan yawned. It was really too boring at the moment. Wang Yufan decided to sleep for a while first.
As the talent tests of the various contestants proceeded, the red-skirted woman loudly announced:
"Kaiyuan Imperial Court’s Mu Fan: Azure Three Rings."
"Jidao Imperial Court’s Li Ziyuan: Azure Five Rings."
"Tianlong Imperial Court’s Liu Han: Green Eight Rings."
"Tiandao Imperial Court’s Li Mo: Blue Five Rings."
When the red-skirted woman said this, everyone deeply inhaled a cold breath.
"Jidao Imperial Court’s Li Qiye: Purple Five Rings."
When the red-skirted woman read Li Qiye’s name, the discussions among the crowd grew even louder.
At the Emperor’s seats, besides Changtian, the other Emperors narrowed their eyes as they looked at Li Qiye.
Ye Lingtian’s mind had already begun to ponder.
"Could this person be the one with Emperor level talent? If so, then my adopted son Ye Xiu’s Purple Eight Rings must be even more formidable than Emperor level talent. Hahahaha." Ye Lingtian felt very pleased.
Just as he was thinking, the red-skirted woman shouted again.
"Unbelievable. Tiandao Imperial Court’s Li Xiu: Purple Eight Rings."
When she shouted this sentence, everyone had already stood up.
Even Heavenly Dragon Emperor, Martial Ascendancy Sovereign, and Primal Origin Emperor stood up.
"This... this is too unbelievable. Purple Eight Rings, even more formidable than Emperor level talent?" Primal Origin Emperor said.
However, Heavenly Dragon Emperor and Martial Ascendancy Sovereign exchanged glances. They knew that the person with Emperor level talent in Jidao Imperial Court should be that girl, not the male disciple who just tested. Although he also surprised them greatly, they only saw a Earth Immortal Realm mid-stage cultivation on Li Qiye.
