Chapter 126
After a moment of commotion, the Fengyun council resumed. No, just as it was about to get underway, Huang Tianhou spoke up.
“The fourth round, the quarterfinals, will begin in exactly three days.”
Seven days and nights of nonstop competition.
The short but not insignificant events had occurred, and everyone was feeling tired.
“It’s enough to know each other’s discretion and prowess, to compete and push each other forward, and to work together like that, but it’s also necessary to rest, as it emphasizes the two words unity and unity. I’ve brought some of the imperial family’s servants with me, and with the help of the Southern Palace, we’ve prepared a feast for you, so please make yourselves at home.”
At the mention of the imperial family’s retinue, the heads of the various sects and clans followed the gaze of the Monkfish Sect Leader, Huang Tianhou, and their gazes drew together.
“My, why are you all staring at me?”
Princess Zhu Yingyoung looked away and pretended not to notice, causing Huang Tianhou to smile.
“I guess they don’t know that the princess told them about the banquet.”
At that, Zhu Yingyoung smiled sheepishly and shook her head, then looked at the gazes around her and spoke up.
“My position is more important than my name, and my background is more important than my influence, I suppose.”
There were nods and disagreements, but just as many unspoken affirmations.
Still the power and authority of the imperial family.
and the power and authority of the martial artists of the Zhongyuan.
