Princess Miaoyu wore a pale golden palace dress with a red sash around her waist, outlining her slender and graceful figure. Her jet-black and beautiful long hair was piled high, with a gold hairpin inserted at the tip.

Although she wore a veil on her face, making it impossible to see her true appearance clearly, her pair of cold, glamorous, and bright eyes were exceptionally soul-stirring. Coupled with the noble aura emanating from her gestures...

Undoubtedly, every male cultivator present felt a strong possessive desire.

Even a seasoned veteran like Chu Feng could not help but take a second look, evaluating, "This woman is indeed extraordinary."

Commandery Princess Bai Yu said, "Aunt Miaoyu is the number one beauty of my Peacock Clan in a million years, and she is also favored by the heavens. If not for the fact that she was not born in the Xuanzhou Continent, the title of the number one beauty of Xuanzhou would belong to none other than her."

Chu Feng smiled faintly. "Number one beauty? That is somewhat interesting."

While the two were speaking, Princess Miaoyu walked onto the high platform and said to everyone present, "Fellow Daoists have come from afar to participate in Miaoyu's martial arts contest for marriage; Miaoyu feels deeply honored."

She paused for a moment and continued, "The rules for this martial arts contest for marriage are very simple. Every force can send three people to fight, but they must include the person participating in the contest for marriage. Whichever force suppresses the heroes, Miaoyu will marry him."

Princess Miaoyu's voice echoed in everyone's ears.

She was clearly speaking in a condescending tone, but for some reason, everyone felt exceptionally comfortable listening to it.

After speaking, Princess Miaoyu flew up to the grandstand and waited quietly for the first person to ascend the stage.

Whoosh!

A tall cultivator flew onto the arena and said, "Everyone, this seat is Marquis Mingdao. Today, I represent my Young Master of Guihai Island to ascend the stage and compete with the heroes of the world."

"Guihai Island, what kind of force is this?"

Great Sage Jinchi asked with a face full of confusion.

Commandery Princess Bai Yu said, "This Guihai Island is a large island in the South Sea. It is said that its Old Ancestor once traveled the Four Seas. After becoming a top-tier Half-Saint, he founded the Guihai Mountain Villa on Guihai Island. That Great Sage advocated education without discrimination."

"To this day, Guihai Island has become a major force. Apart from the main island, there are also many other islands, so they received an invitation from my Yunluo Island."

Just as she finished speaking, Qin Qin, who was sitting beside Chu Feng, spoke up, "Master, I want to take action and exchange a few moves with him."

"Go ahead," Chu Feng said with a smile.

"En."

After Qin Qin responded, she slowly stood up and flew toward the arena under Commandery Princess Bai Yu's astonished gaze.

Just as she landed, a burst of exclamations came from the entire Guanhai Peak.

"What is the situation? There are women taking the stage in this martial arts contest for marriage?"

"Exactly. Little girl, leave quickly. Don't affect us watching the show here."

"..."

Seeing this scene, a confused expression also appeared on Princess Miaoyu's face. Just as she was preparing to ask a Prince of the White Feather Clan to inquire about what was going on, Qin Qin spoke up on the arena.

"I am Qin Qin, from Miaomiao Mountain, fighting on behalf of my Master, the Lord of Miaomiao Mountain."

After the words fell, there was another uproar on Guanhai Peak.

"What force is Miaomiao Mountain? And what kind of guy is the Lord of Miaomiao Mountain to actually let his female disciple fight?"

"Most likely, they are using the martial arts contest for marriage to make a name for themselves. No need to pay attention."

"..."

Marquis Mingdao frowned slightly. Being the first to take the stage, he did not think of performing deeds of valor for his Young Master, but only to scout the path for the Young Master.

It was just that he had not expected that the person taking the stage would actually be a woman. He narrowed his eyes and said, "Junior, I observe that your cultivation has not yet reached Nirvana. Isn't going on stage like this looking for death?"

Qin Qin ignored him. She simply sat cross-legged on her own, placed her guqin in front of her, and said faintly, "If Senior can cut me down with one saber strike, my Master will absolutely not trouble you."

Hiss...

Hearing these words, everyone present subconsciously sucked in a breath of cold air.

Why was this little girl's tone of voice so deserving of a beating?

On the grandstand, Prince Bai Yu saw this scene, and his expression became exceptionally ugly. He said in a deep voice, "That girl is really becoming more and more mischievous. She even lets people cause trouble like this at her aunt's martial arts contest for marriage. Once the contest ends, I must lock her up."

Marquis Mingdao showed no emotional change on his face, but in his heart, he already regarded this little girl as a dead person.

"Junior, since you seek death, then do not blame me."

"Senior, please."

After Qin Qin finished speaking, her hands were already placed on the zither strings, in a posture ready to strike at any moment.

Clang!!!

Marquis Mingdao drew his precious saber. At the same time a cold light flashed across the mountain peak, the aura on his body also burst forth.

Qin Qin felt the pressure of the opponent's Nirvana Realm, but she did not stay idle, plucking the strings unhurriedly.

Dong... Dong...

Accompanying the sound of melodious zither music, a light shield also emerged around Qin Qin.

"Insignificant skill!"

Marquis Mingdao shouted angrily and slashed toward Qin Qin with a move of "Sweeping a Thousand Armies".

Clang!!!

Accompanying a deafening saber hum, a terrifying saber qi swept across the entire arena.

Dang... Dang...

Qin Qin seemed not to see that slash at all and continued to pluck the strings. What surprised people was that her zither sound actually drowned out the saber hum.

Marquis Mingdao's saber qi also gradually stagnated along with the zither sound, finally dissipating at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"How is this possible!!!"

The cultivators on and off the arena exclaimed in unison.

Even a touch of amazement flashed within Princess Miaoyu's eyes.

Commandery Princess Bai Yu whispered, "Qin'er is indeed Big Brother's beloved disciple. This ability to challenge across ranks truly opens our eyes."

Chu Feng smiled and said, "I believe in Qin'er's ability. The Marquises coming to participate in the martial arts contest for marriage this time are in big trouble."

Before his voice faded, Marquis Mingdao blasted out another slash. However, this slash was just like the previous one; before it fell on Qin Qin, it was dispersed by the true intent in the zither music.

This woman was a bit odd!

Just as Marquis Mingdao was about to use his full strength to swing the third slash, he suddenly discovered that the young girl in front of him had disappeared, replaced by a boundless ocean.

He subconsciously wanted to draw his saber to break the illusion before him, but he was surprised to discover that his saber was gone.

This... what exactly was going on?

Marquis Mingdao's subconscious reaction was to use his hand as a saber to chop toward his surroundings.

Rumble!!!

Accompanying a huge booming sound, countless waves splashed in the sea.

In reality, however, the crowd only saw Marquis Mingdao throw away the saber in his hand, then dance and gesticulate on the arena.

This scene was very hard on the eyes, and at the same time, very bizarre.

No one dared to look down on this white-clothed woman anymore, and they were also curious about what force Miaomiao Mountain was.

Only the Young Patriarch of the Green Hill Fox Clan revealed an astonished expression on his face, looking toward the seat the white-clothed woman had left previously...
