Chapter 47
Without hesitation, Hou Zuanshi leaped into the air, followed by his group of nineteen. Their steps were light, yet not ordinary. They had mastered high-level body-lightening techniques, allowing them to run in the air by channeling internal energy into their soles, creating a powerful lift that slowed gravity’s pull. Their auras surged as they moved from one pillar to the next. Their goal was clear—to storm Tian Chen’s earth pillar. Simei, who stood beside Tian Chen, responded immediately. Her hand gripped the hilt of the blue sword strapped to her back. In an instant, a chilling aura spread around her, causing the temperature on their platform to drop drastically. Each breath became visible in the white mist of cold. Her power realm erupted, revealing that she was a sixth-ranked titled warrior. But that display was only met with a mocking sneer from Hou Zuanshi as he drew closer. “Sixth rank? What a joke,” he scoffed. He had already reached the eighth rank of titled warrior, two

Tian Chen didn’t reply. He merely glanced sideways and gave a slight nod. As the team formations began to stabilize, the disparity among them became clear. One group, filled with youths of imperial blood, stood confidently in a large, tight formation. They looked arrogantly at the smaller teams around them. Some even sneered when they saw Tian Chen and Simei standing as only a pair. Yet neither Tian Chen nor Simei looked intimidated. Tian Chen stood tall with his usual cold demeanor, while Simei calmly scanned the surroundings, as if she had already calculated everything. From the top platform, the Tang Emperor observed each group that had formed. When his eyes fell upon Tian Chen and Simei, he paused briefly. His normally flat expression showed a subtle change—barely noticeable to anyone. Only a select few might have understood the meaning behind the faint crease on his brow. If everyone had known that Tian Chen was the true heir of the Tang Imperial bloodline, not a single p

Simei gave a small smile—a simple smile that radiated confidence. Her body leaned forward slightly before she shot ahead. In an instant, she displayed a remarkable body-lightening technique. Her steps were so light it was as if she didn’t touch the ground. In fact, she managed to step on air and glide forward like someone floating. Her movements were graceful and precise, drawing the attention of many in the stands as well as fellow participants. Some spectators were even left in awe. Not only because of the elegance of Simei’s movements, but also because of the calmness she showed while using the technique. As if it wasn’t something to be shown off, but simply part of her natural way of moving. Meanwhile, Tian Chen continued walking calmly. He didn’t hurry, nor did he show any intention of competing in speed. From afar, Simei glanced back and smiled again. Even while her body remained airborne, she managed to speak in a soft voice that still carried clearly to Tian Chen. “Tian Che

On the highest platform stood a middle-aged man in a dark imperial robe that draped down to the stage floor. His eyes swept across the entire tribune, sharp and full of authority. Every gaze of his seemed to pierce through the hidden intentions in the audience's hearts. And finally, the voice echoed. “At last, the event we’ve all been waiting for has arrived. Welcome, everyone, to the Tang Empire.” The Tang Emperor paused briefly. His eyes scanned the entire arena, as if making sure every gaze was fixed on him before continuing his speech. “For this competition, there’s something special for all of you.” His voice was deep and resonant, delivered with the firmness of a leader tempered by time and experience. Every word felt heavy yet meaningful, showing that he was not speaking to make conversation. Thousands of eyes looked at him, filled with curiosity. No one dared to interrupt—not even with a whisper. They simply waited for the next words, holding their breath and sharpen
Chapter 43
When the door to his house opened, Tian Chen was greeted by two figures who had been waiting in front: Daoyan and Simei. The morning breeze blew gently, swaying the ends of their robes, but what surprised Tian Chen wasn’t their presence—it was the faint aura emanating from Simei’s body. He hadn’t expected her cultivation to have advanced so rapidly. Tian Chen’s eyes calmly observed her, without any excessive expression. “Simei, I didn’t expect you to make four breakthroughs in just one week.” His tone was flat, but the look in his eyes showed a silent respect. Simei smiled, though it wasn’t merely because of the compliment. There was something behind her gaze that she didn’t say aloud. “It’s all thanks to the pills given by Senior Healer Siyo. Tian Chen, please convey my gratitude to your mother.” Before Tian Chen could respond, Daoyan cut in with firm steps. “That’s enough chatting. You can talk while walking. Don’t be late.” Simei let out a soft snort, unable to argue. “Grand…
Chapter 42
Tang Siyo smiled gently—a smile that carried deep calm but also held many things she chose not to express. “Chen Chen, I had a few matters to handle, so I didn’t return home,” she said calmly. “Oh right, Chen Chen, I brought you a gift. This was given by a friend of mine. I think it will be useful for you.” From the loose sleeve of her robe, Tang Siyo took out three glowing crystals. Each one had a different color, radiating a unique energy that Tian Chen had never seen before. Along with them, she also brought out two plants that looked fresh and alive. One emitted a subtle warmth, while the other released a gentle, piercing cold. “Chen Chen, these are fire and ice lotuses,” Tang Siyo explained with a soft yet knowledgeable voice. “The fire lotus strengthens your physical body and increases your inner energy circles. The ice lotus is used to trigger a surge in your inner energy. With these, I believe your strength can grow further.” Tian Chen received them with slightly trembling
Chapter 41
After the Third Prince’s body disappeared down the corridor, escorted by the man in the black robe, the atmosphere inside the main hall of the Tang Palace fell silent. No sound remained except for Emperor Tang’s deep, heavy breaths. He stood motionless before the throne, his sharp eyes gradually dimming, as if the fury that had erupted earlier had now been replaced by deep exhaustion. But before he could step back, a transmission voice entered his mind—gentle, yet full of warmth. “Tang Fei, you don’t have to be that harsh with your own son. He’s still young, so it’s only natural for him to act that way.” The voice belonged to a woman he knew very well—Tang Siyo. Emperor Tang’s body froze for a moment. His head bowed, and his left hand clenched slowly beneath the long golden robe that swept across the white marble floor. “Tianyi is older than Tian Chen. But even though Tian Chen is younger, he can remain calm. Calm, while possessing strength beyond most youths. I feel like I’ve fa
Chapter 40
Inside the Imperial Tang Palace, the atmosphere turned dark. The high ceilings carved with dragons and imperial emblems seemed to bow down, witnessing a rage never seen before. Tang Tianyi crashed hard onto the stone floor, his body curling up for a moment under the pressure just released by his father. His hands clutched the ground, trembling, but he didn’t dare utter a single word in response. Emperor Tang stood before him. His gaze was cruel, filled with a pressure that seemed to pierce through the deepest layers of the soul. “You ungrateful son! With this behavior of yours, you haven’t just brought shame to the Tang Empire—you’ve put the entire empire in danger!” Tang Tianyi looked up with confusion in his eyes. He tried to understand what his father meant, though his heart still couldn’t accept this reality. His voice came out in a hesitant tone, searching for answers. “Father, what do you mean by that? Aren’t you the strongest figure on the Tianwu Continent? Who could poss
Chapter 39
The next second, Emperor Tang soared into the courtyard of Tian Chen’s home. He did not walk, nor did he take steps. He came floating through the air, swift and urgent, his divine aura covering the sky above the palace. The ground beneath him trembled lightly when he landed, a sign of his haste. Emperor Tang’s gaze immediately locked onto his third son. “Tianyi, what are you doing here?! What do you mean by coming here and causing a disturbance?! Are you deliberately trying to stir trouble with young friend Tian Chen?!” The Emperor’s tone was not only firm but filled with restrained fury. His words flew out like a volley of arrows, and Tang Tianyi, who was usually arrogant, suddenly fell silent for a few seconds. But not out of fear. On the contrary, rage exploded within him. He could not believe that his father scolded him first without even hearing his side of the story. “Father! Why are you defending him?! Shouldn’t you first ask why I acted this way toward this beggar?!” Tang
