At the same time, a silver-plated carriage rattled over the cobblestone road toward the palace gates. The torchlight lining the tall walls glimmered against the carved crest of a crowned dragon etched on the massive gates. The rhythmic drumming of hooves blended with the creak of wooden wheels, filling the cold night air.

When the carriage rolled to a stop inside the palace courtyard, a servant hurried forward and pulled the door open. Yue Lian stepped down in a swift yet graceful motion, her face still clouded with anger that hadn’t cooled since earlier. Her soft lilac-colored silk gown fluttered lightly as she strode with long, purposeful steps toward the main hall.

Guards and servants bowed as the princess passed, but none dared greet her—her stormy expression warned them to stay silent.

She didn’t slow until she reached the great teak-paneled doors carved with coiling dragons. She paused to take a deep breath, then knocked, the sound quick and sharp.

“Enter,” came a deep yet calm

    Thousands of footsteps echoed as the participants entered the tournament arena. Kael walked casually among the crowd, his hands hidden within the sleeves of his white robes, his expression flat as usual.Around him, cultivators whispered excitedly—discussing strategies, guessing who their opponents would be, or simply trying to calm their tense nerves.Of course, Kael ignored them all.After entering the arena, the participants were led by about a hundred guards wearing black robes with golden dragon emblems on their chests. These guards were mid-level Soul Realm cultivators. And the aura emanating from them was enough to make most participants feel pressured."Follow us!" commanded one of the guards in a loud voice.The crowd of participants began moving, following the guards through stone corridors decorated with dragon carvings and glittering spiritual formations.After walking for several minutes, they arrived at a large hall with a high ceiling adorned with light crystals—making

    That morning, the entire city was filled with extraordinary excitement.The usually bustling streets were now completely packed—there wasn't even room to breathe. Thousands of cultivators from all corners of the continent had gathered, all heading to the same place.The Heavenly Dragon Palace.The headquarters of the Righteous Dragon Sect—the strongest among the Four Great Sects—located at the peak of the highest mountain in the region.However, for this tournament, the battle arena wasn't inside the palace itself, but on a vast plain located right at the foot of the mountain—ten miles from the palace. This plain had been transformed into the largest tournament arena in the last hundred years.And at the edge of that plain... stood a massive gate.Nearly a hundred meters tall, made of black jade reinforced with the highest-level spiritual formations, with two gigantic golden dragon statues standing on either side that looked so lifelike, as if they could take flight at any moment.The

    For the next two weeks, Kael's life proceeded peacefully, far from the commotion and drama happening in various corners of the city.Every morning, when the sun had just appeared on the eastern horizon and its light was still gently touching the rooftops, Kael would leave the Tranquil Wind Inn with relaxed steps. He would walk toward the forest on the city's outskirts, where Tu Feng was.Kael would whistle, and Tu Feng would immediately appear from a random direction—greeting him with a sharp yet loyal gaze, then bowing slightly, allowing Kael to climb onto his back.And without many words...They would fly.Soaring high above the dense forest that stretched widely outside the city—passing over canopies of giant trees that looked like a green ocean from above—feeling the wind that blew strongly yet refreshingly.Kael loved these moments.Peace. Freedom. Far from the hustle and bustle of humanity.They would fly without any particular destination—sometimes north, sometimes east, just e

    Meanwhile, Kael walked leisurely through the city streets with his usual flat expression.He didn't care about all the commotion he'd left behind at the arena. He didn't care about the fearful stares people gave him as he passed by them.He just... wanted to find a place to rest.His steps were relaxed yet purposeful, his eyes sweeping over every building he passed, looking for a suitable inn.But most of the inns he saw were too crowded, full of cultivators who came for the tournament, full of noise, full of people talking loudly about fights and bets.Kael didn't like that.He kept walking, passing through the busy main district of the city, until he finally arrived at a quieter part, where the streets became narrower and the buildings looked older but more peaceful.And there...He found it.A small inn standing on a street corner—its structure made of dark wood that had weathered but was still sturdy, with a dark green tile roof covered in thin moss. In front hung a simple wooden

    After Kael's departure, the public training arena was still shrouded in a suffocating silence. The spectators slowly began to leave—some still shaken, some whispering with trembling voices, and others just wanting to leave this place as quickly as possible.But among the dispersing crowd...A group of cultivators dressed in clean white with blue cloud decorations on their right sleeves—disciples from the White Cloud Palace—moved quickly and in an organized manner.Unlike the other spectators who were still frozen in shock, they were already moving with a clear purpose.A senior disciple—a man around twenty-seven years old with sharp features and eyes full of vigilance—gave a signal to the four junior disciples behind him."We need to return immediately," he said in a serious tone. "Yan Qingfeng must know about this. Now."The four junior disciples nodded without asking. They all knew how important this information was.And without wasting any more time...They left the arena with quic

    Xiao Tianyu lay sprawled on the floor, his chest heaving rapidly—his breaths ragged, blood still trickling from his nose, and his once-handsome face now swollen and bruised beyond recognition.But the most striking thing wasn’t his injuries.It was his expression.A complex one. Very complex.His eyes locked onto Kael, filled with a storm of emotions—fear, anger, confusion, and… despair.He was terrified of Kael. Terrified to the core.This monster could destroy him effortlessly. With just two blows, he was already reduced to this pathetic state. If the fight continued, Xiao Tianyu was certain—he would die. Or at the very least, end up crippled for life.And yet…He was the successor of the Blue Sky Sword Sect.The top genius of his generation.The future leader of one of the Ten Great Sects.If he surrendered like this—beaten senseless in front of thousands, humiliated like a child—how could he possibly face the Sect Leader?How could he face the elders who had placed their hopes in
