who is obviously inferior in ability."Please note that I only translated the content within the > tags and kept the HTML tags as they were."That makes a lot of sense.""Isn't that right!" Li Laosi said...I can't bear it for long.

An announcement echoed from outside the door: “The master of Yu Xīn Palace has arrived!”

The master of the Yuxin Palace is the Ninth Prince, Jiang Wuxie.

In the Invincible Martial Arts Hall, everyone who had been sitting down stood up!

It wasn't until this point that Jiang Wang realized he might have underestimated the prince with a refined and feminine air. Perhaps it was Li Fengyao's straightforwardness, or Jiang Wuxie's shameless behavior in front of him, that led Jiang Wang to have a superficial understanding of his position in Qi.

Even Yan Fu got up, though it was just a formality. But not every prince deserved to be treated with such courtesy!

This is someone who could truly ascend to the Dragon Court.

In the midst of the diverse crowd, Jiang Wuyong's face had taken on a slightly darker hue. He was the first to arrive today, hoping to secure a good spot. He knew that this battle would attract a large audience, and a prime location was undoubtedly a symbol of status. It also provided an opportunity to network before others arrived. As for the minor conflict he'd had with Jiang Wang earlier… A person of great ambition wouldn't be held back by personal grudges! He could forgive Jiang Wang!

I didn't expect that after I came, I found out that the location was almost the same, all bare wooden benches... This is the first-class area worth a hundred Tao Yuan stones!

And his "socializing" was ineffective as well. Those who stuck to him he looked down upon, and those he intended to befriend, such as the Bao brothers and Yan Fu, all treated him with polite distance.

Being in the State of Qi as an unassuming prince, he was no stranger to feeling frustrated. In fact, throughout his childhood and adolescence, such setbacks were a common occurrence. Yet, he still hadn't gotten used to it.

What really made him furious was that, as princes, he hadn't been treated with such pomp and circumstance when he arrived. Even Chongxuan Sheng didn't come out to greet him personally!

Of course, he didn't have the right to make a fuss at this time. Even if he was unhappy in his heart, he had already stood up honestly and greeted Jiang Wuji who was walking towards him slowly: "Brother Nine!"

Jiang Wu Xie didn't seem to like this fourteenth brother very much, just humming softly in acknowledgement.

He was followed by four slender and beautiful court ladies, as usual, with a charming air.

When he reached the spot corresponding to the license plate, he was surprised, just like most people would be.

Turning his head, he looked at Chong Xuan with a mixture of amusement and disbelief: "You're so stingy!"

“I'm ashamed.” Chong Xuan didn't show a hint of shame: “Time was too rushed, I couldn't make preparations!”

You had time to collect money, but not time to set things up And you dare to charge different levels of fees for the license plates!

Of course, Jiang Wuxie didn't directly expose him. He probably understood Chong Xuan's face very well. The other party clearly didn't care about shame and wasn't afraid of being exposed...

Even the shameless Ninth Prince, who could be brazen even before a beauty, failed to find someone who understood him. Instead, he sighed wistfully and waved his hand, causing a palace maid behind him to turn and leave.

After a short while, a team of servants carried in soft beds, cushioned seats, small tables... all sorts of things.

In a short while, the head of the Xiangxin Palace was given a new spot—his original placard wasn't big enough, so they bought up the spots around it as well.

And those four beautiful court ladies, at just the right moment, took out wine sets and jade plates from a storage box. There were all sorts of delicacies: fine wines, fruits, pastries... everything you could want for watching a play.

Jiang Wuxie then gracefully sat down on the soft bed and, under the service of beautiful palace maids, leisurely waited for the good show to begin.

The ninth prince's actions reminded many people that those who were willing to spend dozens or even hundreds of Tao Yuan Stones to watch the battle wouldn't be poor. They immediately asked their servants to prepare items, at the very least changing to a soft cushion to sit on!

For a moment, this place seemed to have become a construction site.

In the "First-Class" area opposite, Gao Zhe whispered to Yan Fu with a hint of ridicule, "The richest man in Bei County today seems to have lost his prestige!"

Yan Fu had to shake his head and smile wryly.

The state of Bei was rich and powerful among the states, while the Yan family was rich and powerful among the state of Bei.

As the legitimate heir of the Yan family, he was naturally accustomed to a comfortable life and would often rearrange his living spaces according to his wishes. But this position was given to him by Chongxuan Sheng, so if he were to make other arrangements, wouldn't it be a blatant disregard

With a heart as delicate as his, such misunderstandings would naturally not occur.

But he didn't know... Chongxuan was eager to!

At this time, Chong Xuan Sheng was quietly showing off to Jiang Wangxian: "Look, our martial arts hall's facilities have been renovated like this, and they are all high-end goods!"

>

He smirked, “They, those aristocrats, wouldn’t dare to move the chairs back, would they”

Zhong Xuanpang, you are also from a prominent family.

Jiang Wang's eyebrows jumped, but she ultimately said nothing.

After all, it's a martial arts hall shared by both of them... Some things don't need to be taken too seriously!

Just then, another voice boomed, "Master Huaying Palace has arrived!"

The Third Princess Jiang Wuyu has also arrived!

Just as when Jiang Wu Xie arrived, everyone in the martial arts hall rose again to greet him.

Zhong Xuan had anticipated that Jiang Wuxie and Jiang Wuqi would come. The former had once lost to Wang Yiwu, who was at the same cultivation level. Now that Jiang Wang had defeated Wang Yiwu with the same cultivation level, he couldn't possibly stay away.

And Jiang Wuqi... Lei Zhanyuan was his cousin, he would definitely come to show his support.

But the appearance of Hua Yinggong's master, Jiang Wuyou, was something he hadn't expected.

This Third Princess, has always disliked being in such a lively crowd.

But no matter what he thought in his heart, he still appeared kind and friendly on the surface, taking a few steps forward.

Hearing the announcement, Jiang Wang, who had been feigning battle preparations with his eyes closed to avoid socializing, couldn't help but open his eyes and look.

Since the establishment of the unified nation, I had long heard of Princess Hua Ying's name but this was the first time I had the chance to meet Jiang Wuyou in person. After all, she was the only princess among those qualified to compete for a position in the Dragon Court. He couldn't help but be curious.

Only a tall and imposing woman strode into the martial arts hall. She was alone, with no attendants.

Jiang Wuyou is not the kind of woman with delicate features. She doesn't have willow-leaf eyebrows or cherry-shaped lips, nor does she wear makeup. However, her facial features are very spirited and attractive, making a deep impression and unforgettable at first glance.

Please note that I've removed the unnecessary "r own people. It is truly chilling.” Fu Dongxu shook his head: “Well, let's go in and take a look!”Having said that, he took the lead and descended into the crater.The churning lava lake parted slowly...
