C301 The Bright Moon Competition
Time passed in the blink of an eye. Although the incident in the Heavenly Palace had caused a huge commotion in the Jun family, it hadn't spread to the outside world. So far, no one knew about it.
The death of the supervisor of the first floor of the Heaven Cliff Sea Pavilion was just a passing cloud to the world. It wasn't worth mentioning, but what everyone was concerned about was who had killed the supervisor of the first floor of the Heaven Cliff Sea Pavilion. Also, why was she able to mobilize the Pavilion Cliff Guard to protect her?
However, after Chen Fann left, all of these became their guesses, and they didn't know anything about it.
Jun Wenn was under the orders of his family to look for Chen Fann. According to his family's wishes, he was trying his best to become Chen Fann's woman, but whether it was the Heaven Palace or the Heaven Cliff Sea Pavilion, the two places where the Bright Moon Empire's information was the most effective... There was still no news of Chen Fann. It was as if he had disappeared into thin air.
Currently, the Bright Moon Empire's only city, Vast Sky City, was packed with people. The Bright Moon Academy was even livelier. The inner and outer regions of the city were completely blocked. The outer region of the city was almost surrounded by death. There were countless figures on both the ground and the void.
Not for anything else, but just for the sake of the Bright Moon Competition that was about to be held tomorrow. The Bright Moon Competition was an unprecedented golden age of Bright Moon Empire. One should know that... Anyone who could pass the Bright Moon Competition would have the right to enter the Human Extreme Sword Sect and step into the true peak of martial arts. This was something that everyone dreamt of.
Many families didn't have the wish to fulfill. They hoped that their young disciples could continue to advance and complete this magnificent task.
The audition held by the Bright Moon Empire had ended. Now, only a hundred people had passed the audition and entered the Bright Moon Competition. Among them were the people from the three kingdoms who had been granted the qualification by the Bright Moon Empire's royal family.
Almost every year, there would be people from the three kingdoms who would enter the final competition. However, they had never been selected directly. This was not fair to the rest of the people.
One had to know that the Bright Moon Empire was a Sect Master country, and there were countless geniuses. Compared to the three vassal kingdoms, the geniuses of the Bright Moon Empire seemed to have the absolute advantage, so they should have the most number of disciples.
Unfortunately, the Hao Yue royal family didn't do this. They still chose the same method as before. Because they knew that even if they made such a choice, the top 30 people would still be the people of the Bright Moon Empire. And the people of the three kingdoms would only become cannon fodder for the Bright Moon Competition, speeding up the end of the battle.
In a courtyard of the Bright Moon Empire, there were a few figures. If Chen Fann was here, he would definitely recognize them. One of them looked at the sky with affection, as if he was missing someone.
"Tomorrow is the Bright Moon Competition. Where are you? Why aren't you looking for me?" Ouyang Yuqing looked at the blue sky and muttered to herself.
When Chen Fann chose to leave alone, he naturally had his own choice. There was no need for her to get to the bottom of everything, but why didn't he reply to her? Did something happen?
"Junior sister, don't worry. Junior brother Fann is blessed by the heavens. I believe that nothing will happen to him. He must have encountered some trouble and was delayed. Otherwise, he would have appeared a long time ago."
Mooh Chen looked at Ouyang Yuqing, who was in a daze, and comforted her.
"Then if she doesn't appear, she won't have the qualifications to enter the Human Extreme Sword Sect!" Ouyang Yuqing asked worriedly.
Mooh Chen didn't say anything, but looked into the distance. Just as Ouyang Yuqing had said, if Chen Fann didn't enter before the start of the Bright Moon Competition... This way, he wouldn't be qualified to enter the Human Extreme Sword Sect. To a genius like him, it was undoubtedly a huge loss.
Although he didn't have much contact with Chen Fann, Chen Fann's actions had already spread throughout the Dragon Cloud Kingdom. He knew that his junior brother Fann was a man who wouldn't give up and believed that he would definitely appear.
Ouyang Yuqing, the people from Dragon Cloud Kingdom, Black Cloud Kingdom, Wind Cloud Kingdom and Original Cloud Kingdom arrived at Bright Moon Empire a few days ago and were arranged to stay in a courtyard. After a few days, they were safe and sound, even though the kings of the three kingdoms had all died in Dragon Cloud Kingdom. They had accumulated endless anger in their hearts, but they could only endure it patiently. If something were to happen in Bright Moon Empire, they would not want to live anymore.
And the real battlefield of the Bright Moon Competition was the best place for them to seek revenge. Naturally, no one would know that someone had killed the people of the Dragon Cloud Kingdom there. Even if they knew, it would be fine. After all, it was a battle. Injuries and casualties were inevitable.
Everyone in the Dragon Cloud Kingdom did not know about this. In their eyes, the kings of the three kingdoms had all died in the Dragon Cloud Kingdom. Could it be that they still dared to work together to deal with the disciples of the Dragon Cloud Kingdom? Were they not afraid of continuing to seek death?
Not only were the people of the three kingdoms preparing for the battle, but the Bright Moon Empire royal family and the Bright Moon Academy were also preparing for the battle after obtaining some Prodigy. However, the most important battle on their path of cultivation was to make a name for themselves. Otherwise, they wouldn't even be able to pass the Bright Moon Competition. How could they talk about martial arts?
"What do you think about the strength of that Chen Fann from Dragon Cloud Kingdom?" A middle-aged man wearing a purple-golden dragon robe stood at the highest point of Haotian City, at the peak of Bright Moon Imperial Palace, and asked in a flat tone.
A man below looked up at the majestic figure above the palace, and slowly replied, "His realm is still at the Early Third Layer of Imperial Sea Stage!"
"So he didn't pass the Haoyue Competition?"
"I'm not sure. His combat strength is very strong. In that battle, he defeated Muh Yishan, who was at the Mid Fifth Layer of Imperial Sea Stage. It seems like he hasn't used his full strength yet!" The person below slowly recalled.
"Does that mean he has at least the combat strength of a Sixth Layer of Imperial Sea Stage?" The middle-aged man in the purple-golden dragon robe was shocked as well. One should know that he was an early Third Layer of Imperial Sea Stage. It was extremely difficult to defeat a mid Fifth Layer of Imperial Sea Stage warrior. It wasn't something that could make up for this gap with just one talent. There was also acquired cultivation and comprehension of martial arts. None of these could be missed.
"That's right. But this subordinate feels that his strength is not the only one. He seems to have extraordinary perseverance and memory. His strength should not be low!" Haoyue Shenhui, who was standing at the bottom, explained slowly.
Bright Moon Divine Sun nodded slightly, agreeing with Haoyue Shenhui's words. However, all of this did not change his opinion of the other three kingdoms. Even if Chen Fann's talent was extraordinary, he still could not escape being toyed with by fate.
The person standing on top of the palace was none other than the Bright Moon Empire's Emperor, Bright Moon Divine Sun. He was the true ruler of the Bright Moon Empire and had absolute authority.
The incident in Dragon Cloud Kingdom had shocked him. He was originally a vassal kingdom of his. It was a matter of life and death. It was just a matter of a few words, but he couldn't think of it. In the end, his order became a joke. As Emperor, how could he swallow this insult?
