The young lady looked down and everyone. Her lips moved slightly and she wasn’t speaking loud, but her words reached the ears of everyone, “I am the Purple Moon Kingdom’s Ninth Princess, Murong Yue.”
Ninth Princess Murong Yue?
Many had already forgotten this person.
But some still remembered her. There were rumors saying that Murong Yue left the Purple Moon Kingdom when she was just a few years old. It seemed like she was taken as a disciple by some powerful expert. No one expected to be back!
Moreover, she was challenging the National Test’s 1st ranker, Xiao Qianhan as soon as she returned.
Murong Ce had yet to be sent back to the palace, he immediately looked over when he heard that the young lady said she was Murong Yue.
“Ninth sister?”
Murong Yue heard Murong Ce as she looked at Murong Ce and nodded lightly, “Seventh brother, go back to the palace and recuperate. I will be back shortly, leave this to me.”
Murong Ce was extremely excited. He didn’t think that his ninth sister who had been gone was actually back! Furthermore, he couldn’t see through her strength. It wasn’t hard to guess that her strength was already superior to him if she dared to challenge the National Test’s 1st ranker. It seemed like she was far superior!
If the Purple Moon Kingdom knew that they finally had a Honor Mystic Realm martial artist, the entire kingdom would be in an uproar. After all, it had been 1000 years since anyone broke through to the Honor Mystic Realm! What’s more, Murong Yue was only 16 years old!
“Ninth sister, be careful.” Murong Ce was at ease and could just wait for the news of Xiao Qianhan’s defeat. If he was to meet Xiao Qianhan in the future, she would also be a loser! So what if she defeated him?
Murong Yue nodded lightly again.
The crowd was in an uproar again. How many years had it been such a person who challenged the 1st ranker? The challenger was even a royalty!
“Crown Prince, this young lady isn’t simple, she is the disciple of the Mystic Esteem Sect and is at the low-stage of Honor Mystic Realm. Young Lady Xiao isn’t a match for her.” Long Yu had a solemn expression as he whispered.
Yun Mojin was sipping his tea without a change in expression. He let out a lazy smile and said, “Interesting.”
He Xiaowen didn’t expect things to develop like this. She had heard of Murong Yue in the Northern Dusk Kingdom and never thought Murong Yue was royalty. Murong Yue was already at the Honor Mystic Realm and Xiao Qianhan was definitely not a match for her.
She looked at Yun Mojin silently thinking if Yun Mojin would make a move. Murong Yue was a disciple of the Mystic Esteem Sect. If he was to make a move, it would definitely be detected. Would he risk becoming enemies with the Mystic Esteem Sect for a woman?
“Xiao Qianhan, you didn’t win with your own strength.” Murong Yue had a cold expression while speaking so softly that only she and Xiao Qianhan could hear it.
Xiao Qianhan raised her eyebrows as it was true that she didn’t win with her own strength. There was someone who helped her without her permission. However, when fighting against Murong Ce, even if no one helped her, she would have won. But Murong Ce’s final injury wouldn’t have been so severe.
“I am evenly matched with the Seventh Prince.” Xiao Qianhan said in a deep voice.
Murong Yue chuckled and didn’t say anything else. It was true that Xiao Qianhan was superior to Murong Ce, but she was the one who defeated Murong Ce. The person who interfered at the end merely made the injury worse.
But so what? The Purple Moon Kingdom’s royal clan couldn’t lose their reputation because of this.
She felt slightly troubled as she silently swept a glance at Yun Mojin and Long Yu who were at the judge area. Even though she was at the low-stage of Honor Mystic Realm, she still couldn’t see through the duo’s strength.
Why would they help Xiao Qianhan?
“Is the Ninth Princess certain to challenge Xiao Qianhan?” The judge confirmed again.
Murong Yue nodded, “Mhm.”
The judge looked at Xiao Qianhan, “Do you want to accept the challenge? You can choose not to.”
“Mistress, let’s not accept the challenge. I have a strange feeling about her.” Qianzi’s voice echoed again.
Xiao Qianhan was in deep thought as she was afraid that she wouldn’t be able to avoid this. It was no longer a matter of accepting or not.
As expected, Murong Yue spoke, “The 1st ranker of the National Test doesn’t dare to accept the challenge? If you are afraid of losing your useless title, this princess can personally issue a challenge request. It doesn’t matter if you win or lose, you will still be 1st ranker. How about that?”
This was a person who was smart and also good at provocation!
“The Ninth Princess is at the low-stage of Honor Mystic Realm and I am only at the mid-stage of Palm Mystic Realm. Does the Ninth Princess always choose an easy opponent?”
Xiao Qianhan let out a light laugh as she looked at Murong Yue fearlessly. Her calm voice had made Murong Yue extremely surprised.
But Murong Yue was even more surprised that Xiao Qianhan actually knew her strength!
Everyone was in discussions! They were looking at Murong Yue with more respect as she was an Honor Mystic Realm martial artist! It had been unprecedented for 1000 years in the Purple Moon Kingdom!
However…
For an Honor Mystic Realm martial artist to challenge a Palm Mystic Realm martial artist, it was indeed… too easy?
It seemed like it was a bully.
Xiao Qianhan patiently waited for Murong Yue’s reply.
Murong Yue smiled sweetly and replied, “That’s right, I am indeed at the Honor Mystic Realm. But my strength isn’t related to my challenge right?”
On the National Test, strength had never been part of the rules and Murong Yue was very certain about this rule.
“Strength is indeed unrelated to the challenge, but wouldn’t I be seeking death if I accept your challenge? Apologies, I will not accept your challenge.” Xiao Qianhan replied ;leisurely.
There was a flash of cold light in Murong Yue’s eyes as she shouted, “You don’t have the right to choose!”
Murong Yue didn’t use any weapon and rushed over with her bare hands which had condensed white light. This was the pride of an expert and she was disdainful to use a weapon against a completely inferior opponent!
Xiao Qianhan realized clearly that Murong Yue was trying to take her life!
“Mistress, I will help you!” Qianzi was seated cross-legged in the Thousands Cauldron Mark and she was wrapped by an intense purple light.
Streaks of purple energy were released from the Thousands Cauldron Mark and slowly transferred to the rusty sword through Xiao Qianhan’s palm.
Qianzi was a Heaven Mystic Realm expert and it was definitely easy for her to deal with Murong Yue herself. But if she suddenly appeared, it would only bring trouble to her mistress. But she could help her mistress within the Thousands Cauldron Mark, helping her to have an instant boost of strength!
Qianzi still couldn’t figure out the strange feeling from Murong Yue, therefore, she had to use her full strength to help her mistress!
Xiao Qianhan suddenly felt the powerful spirit power concentrated in her palm. She immediately focused and fused Qianzi’s spirit power with her spirit power. Her life wasn’t going to be taken by anyone so easily!
All of a sudden, a voice traveled through a secret channel that no one could hear. It swiftly and tyrannically entered Murong Yue’s ears, “Touch her and this prince will destroy the entire Purple Moon Kingdom.”
