The next day.
Yu Long walked to the Blue Wind Profound Palace with Cang Yue, Xia Qingyue, and Hong Guan. They are here to pick fighters to represent Blue Wind Empire for the incoming Blue Wind Ranking Tournament.
You might wonder where Lily, Jasmine, Chu Yueli, and Chu Yuechan were.
Well, Jasmine was busy learning things from Lily. As for the Chu Sisters, they are staying in the Blue Wind Imperial Palace because two of them are about to break through.
"Why are we even here? I'm alone enough to represent the Blue Wind Empire." Cang Yue said with an adorable pout.
She glanced at Yu Long and felt this husband of hers was wasting their time visiting the Blue Wind Profound Palace.
The Blue Wind Profound Palace is the Blue Wind Empire's 'greatest' cultivation palace. It's 'actually' located in the northern area of the Blue Wind Imperial City.
The profound palace was 'purposely' established by the Imperial Family 1,800 years ago. It is directly supervised and supplied by the royal family to gather young talents.
The palace also had a policy that every year, it would accept three of the most distinguished disciples from each profound palace within the Blue Wind Empire. Those disciples will represent the Imperial City in the Blue Wind Ranking Tournament.
But how could it compare to the Lost Heaven Sect? It's like comparing mud to gold, discouraging Cang Yue from choosing people there.
'The Imperial Family has never entered the top one hundred for a long time, but it will change soon.' Cang Yue was confident in herself.
Yu Long chuckled, "Hehe, don't be like that."
"We might find some diamonds in the rough, you know?"
"Acting all mysterious again." Cang Yue cast a suspicious look.
Xia Qingyue shook her head because she understood where Cang Yue was coming from. She also acknowledged that Cang Yue alone was enough to carry Blue Wind Imperial City. After all, she knew how strong the gentle-looking princess was.
Still, Xia Qingyue wanted to see what Yu Long had for them.
Hong Guan was silent the entire time, thinking about what method she should use to spend more time alone with her young master.
...
They arrived at the Blue Wind Profound Palace and saw a middle-aged man coming from inside. He's Dongfang Xiu, the palace master of this place.
"Princess." He greeted them with a smile.
Cang Yue stared at the elder and said calmly, "Long time no see, Elder Xiu."
"We are here to check some disciples for the incoming tournament."
Dongfang Xiu's eyes widened as the Imperial Family hadn't sent him the purpose of this visit. All he knew was that the princess and his fiance would come.
He blinked and bowed to Yu Long, "Nice to meet you, Young Lord Yu."
They have heard about the legendary princess of Blue Wind Empire, and the rumor said she was cultivating in the Lost Heaven Sect for years.
No one knew about the princess's strength, but some guessed she was at Sky Profound Realm or above. 18-year-old Sky Profound Realm Expert, what kind of concept was that?
On top of that, she's also engaged to the young leader of the Lost Heaven Sect.
Cang Yue walked onto the stage and looked at everyone with a smile on her beautiful face. Her appearance made every young man in the room gasp in surprise. Their young blood boils.
Even Fen Juechen stared at Cang Yue with a stunned look. His once calm demeanor cracked for a second.
'How strong is she? I can't tell her cultivation at all!' However, Fen Juechan quickly realized something was weird with Cang Yue.
'The princess is not as simple as people thought.'
Cang Yue stared at the disciples and said, "The Blue Wind Ranking Tournament will start in less than two weeks."
"I'm greatly disappointed in the Blue Wind Profound Palace's standard as only a handful of you met my standard. Barely at that."
"So, I will make this short. I will release 5% of my cultivation base's pressure, and your task is to keep standing. If you pass, I will grant you a chance to become Blue Wind Imperial Family's representative."
Everyone was speechless.
Yu Long helplessly patted his forehead, "She's impatient."
"Well, this makes things more interesting." Xia Qingyue giggled on the side.
Cang Yue didn't wait for their response as a frightening shockwave swept the palace, stunning everyone. Dongfang Xiu, Qin Wushang, and one more elder felt Cang Yue's pressure and couldn't help but gasp in amazement.
The princess has exceeded their expectations!
"T-This is..." One disciple couldn't handle the pressure and fainted on the spot with foam coming from his mouth.
The disciples fell one after another, leaving two people only.
Fen Juechen gritted his teeth and released all his cultivation base. Even then, he could barely stand straight. His legs are shivering like no tomorrow.
The other person is also a young man. He wore a blue robe and had this pained expression.
"Well done." Cang Yue retracted back her pressure.
"You two shall be the representatives."
"Tell me your name."
Fen Juechen stared at Cang Yue silently and answered, "Fen Juechen."
The blue-robed young man trembled and said, "Sikong Du."
Cang Yue crossed her arms and continued, "You two are too weak. For the next thirteen days, you two will undergo intense training."
"Do you hear me?"
"Yes, princess!" Fen Juechan and Sikong Du answered as they felt excited when Cang Yue mentioned intense training.
