In Ling Xiao's opinion, the emperor of the Divine Phoenix Empire was still a very powerful figure, perhaps even more powerful than Feng Yinshan and Fengming Qishan.
If it weren't for the Divine Phoenix Empire, each emperor could only be re-elected once at most, and in a total of eight years, there would probably be nothing to do with Fengyin Mountain and Fengming Qishan.
From a purely facial analysis, this emperor is a scheming person.
On the surface, he seems to be just a gentle and kind uncle, but what exactly is going on in this uncle's heart is unknown to others.
"I believe everyone knows that this is Ling Xiao, the genius who once defeated the Blood Skeleton in a public duel."
The emperor pointed at Ling Xiao, then smiled and briefly introduced him.
Although most of the people present knew Ling Xiao's identity, there were also some who didn't.
Some people just immerse themselves in cultivation on weekdays and really know nothing about what is happening outside.
For example, Ning Ke, whom Ling Xiao once met, had been in seclusion in the Tianyuan Pagoda. He didn't know how powerful he was and insisted on causing trouble for him, but he ended up giving him a lesson.
Originally, these people didn't care much about Ling Xiao, but when they heard this, they all showed a hint of shock.
Although being able to defeat the Blood Skeleton is not something extraordinary, it is something to be proud of. No wonder the emperor would invite this person to this border trial.
"After all, he's just a despicable human being!"
Some people just don't pay much attention to situations.
The person who spoke was none other than Yan Peng.
That day in the Shenhuang Auction House, Ling Xiao made Yan Peng lose face.
Later, Yan Peng sent the Dongtian Realm warrior to kill Ling Xiao, but in the end, the Dongtian Realm warrior died inexplicably.
This caused Yan Peng to be punished by his family, and his butt still hurts to this day.
He completely put this account on Ling Xiao's head and hated Ling Xiao deeply.
Although he is afraid of Ling Xiao, but where is this place? He is not afraid of Ling Xiao getting angry out of humiliation.
"That's right, I just defeated the twenty-ranked Blood Skeleton from Divine Phoenix Academy. There really is nothing worth showing off. To be so arrogant and domineering shows that he is not a good person in ordinary times!"
Jia Yun took the opportunity to mutter again.
Blood skeletons are indeed nothing in his eyes.
"Haha, how about defeating the Blood Skeleton? The Emperor has already judged it. Do you think you are wiser than the Emperor?"
Ling Xiao smiled slightly and said lightly.
One sentence made Yan Peng and Jia Yun's faces turn ugly.
"Your Majesty, please forgive me. I don't mean to deny the Emperor's words!"
Yan Peng hurriedly stood up and knelt on the ground to apologize to the emperor.
Jia Yun, on the other hand, has an extremely aloof character and is also extremely stupid.
He did not apologize to the emperor, but said calmly: "The emperor is a magnanimous person, how can he care about these small things? What's more, what I said is not wrong."
Let’s not talk about whether the emperor is magnanimous or not. If you have an attitude like an idiot like you, sooner or later you will die inexplicably.
Ling Xiao secretly shook his head. This Jia Yun was really spoiled by his elders and turned into an idiot.
"Hahaha, it doesn't matter. Jia Yun has always been a straightforward person."
The emperor laughed and said, but it is not clear what he was thinking in his heart.
"Brother Ling probably doesn't know much about these people here. Let Xiaomin introduce them to you. This Young Master Jia Yunjia is one of the young masters of the Righteous Alliance. I think Brother Ling already knows about this.
The Moon Villa is now the property of the Zhengqi Alliance."
Fengming Wushan was a person who knew how to look at people. In order to resolve the awkward atmosphere, he introduced Ling Xiao to the young talents present.
Of course, the focus is still on Jia Yun.
Yan Peng is from the Dapeng tribe, and Ling Xiao knows this.
Feng Yanran is the princess of the Fire Phoenix Clan, and Ling Xiao also knows it.
Feng Mingbo and Feng Mingyu are from the Bingfeng tribe. Their father Feng Mingjun is now the nine-door admiral of the Imperial City and is responsible for the security of the entire Imperial City.
The rest of the young talents are also from prominent family backgrounds.
But they all seem to have one thing in common, that is, except for Mr. Jia from the Righteous Alliance, the rest are nobles from the Divine Phoenix Empire.
As for Young Master Jia Yun, his status may be higher than those of these nobles.
Calculating it this way, Ling Xiao is really a bit different.
People who are different will always be ostracized.
In the eyes of these superior people, Ling Xiao was incompatible with them, so in their eyes, Ling Xiao was not worthy of appearing in such an occasion.
However, the emperor treated Ling Xiao with courtesy.
Feng Yanran and Ling Xiao are even more intimate.
Feng Qingyan, the emperor's uncle of the Fire Phoenix Clan, was actually willing to be Ling Xiao's bodyguard.
Each of these incidents made them crazy with jealousy, and their dissatisfaction with Ling Xiao continued to increase.
"Now that the introductions are over, let me have a drink with all the talents first. It can be regarded as a strong drink for this border trial!"
The emperor picked up the wine glass.
Everyone also hurriedly picked up their wine glasses.
"Too much talk is useless, everything is in this glass of wine, do it!"
The emperor drank it all in one gulp.
Everyone raised their glasses and drank the strong wine.
There was a bit of heat in the throat, but this heat quickly swept through the whole body, making people feel as heroic as a strong man going into battle.
"Okay! I hope that all the heroes can unite as one and make great contributions to the empire. I will be waiting for you in the imperial city!"
The emperor said excitedly.
"Your Majesty, Yingying Yanyan is really not suitable for this kind of atmosphere. It is better to compete with each other to show your heroic qualities!"
After drinking for three rounds, Feng Ming Wu Shan suddenly cupped his hands and smiled.
Hearing this, Ling Xiao suddenly frowned. It was indeed the Hongmen Banquet. This banquet was really not that easy to eat.
"This is a very good statement. I have heard about the names of all the heroes, but I have never had the chance to see your skills. On this auspicious day, I might as well give it a try."
The emperor nodded and said.
These two people had clearly discussed this, otherwise they would not have cooperated so well.
"Your Majesty, it is a good thing to have a martial arts competition to add to the fun, but there should be some luck, otherwise everyone will not be interested."
Jia Yun said with a smile.
This person was indeed used to being casual and had no intention of restraining himself in front of the emperor.
"Of course there is a chance of winning, and everyone should be interested."
The emperor smiled slightly and then clapped his hands gently.
"Piaoxue, you can come up now!"
The phoenixes were singing and the snow was falling. She was dressed in white and looked like a startled giant, walking gracefully on the water waves.
beautiful!
Except for Ling Xiao, everyone else in the field couldn't help showing expressions of wonder.
Even Feng Yanran, who is a woman, was shocked by this woman's beauty.
Of course Ling Xiao also knew that the phoenixes and snow were beautiful, but after seeing so many beauties, he didn't care so much.
In his heart, there is only one woman he really wants to marry, and that is Yue Nu.
There are quite a few confidantes, and among them there are a few who are more outstanding than Feng Ming Piaoxue.
Ling Yixue and Ji Mingkong might not lose to this woman.
