"Hehe, they say girls change a lot by the age of eighteen, but Sister Yunxi, you’re already eighteen, why haven’t you changed at all?" Xia Ji rubbed the back of his head, somewhat speechless as he shifted the topic.
This sister has always loved to tease the original owner. Yet, after being "bullied," the original owner would turn around and seek this sister to stand up for him. In Shengjing City, there wasn't a single young master who hadn't been beaten by Xia Yunxi.
Xia Ji also took advantage of this to assert his authority when he was younger.
"How haven’t I changed?" Xia Yunxi raised an eyebrow at this remark, her chest subtly puffing out as she grabbed Xia Ji's hand, seemingly brushing against him casually.
"Cough cough."
Xia Ji cleared his throat twice, reminding her to be mindful of the surroundings; after all, they were at a birthday banquet. Didn’t she notice the strange expressions on the guests' faces?
"Sister Yunxi, how long can you stay in Shengjing City this time?" Xia Ji took a sip of fruit wine, which was sour and sweet—quite unfamiliar to him. He instinctively took the flowing cloud handkerchief prepared by Xiu'er to wipe his mouth and asked Xia Yunxi, who was seated at the head of the table.
Xia Yunxi tugged at the corners of her mouth, brushed aside her loose hair, frowned slightly, and shook her head. "Not for long. I’ve spent three years on the mountain learning quite a bit from the Elders. This time I came down to gain experience and try to make a name for my Supreme Forgetting Emotion Sect."
"So you’re aiming for the Dragon-Tiger List, huh?" Xia Ji pondered thoughtfully.
The Supreme Forgetting Emotion Sect does not participate in the conflicts of the Xuanhuang Great World, but that doesn’t mean its presence isn’t strong. On the contrary, the reputation of the Supreme Forgetting Emotion Sect is well-known throughout the entire Xuanhuang Great World.
There’s no other reason; every session of the Dragon-Tiger List must feature a representative from the Supreme Forgetting Emotion Sect! Sometimes even more!
From this, it can be seen that such transcendent powers also require fame and fortune to attract top talents to join and continue a legacy that has lasted for thousands of years.
"Hehe," Xia Yunxi smiled confidently, "How far do you think my strength can reach?"
"First!" Xia Ji declared decisively as he unfurled the Fire Cloud Fan from his sleeve with a flourish.
Xia Yunxi rolled her eyes at him and said irritably, "The Xuanhuang Great World is full of hidden talents, with many outstanding figures among the younger generation! I definitely cannot be first right now. If I had broken through to the Divine Sea Realm, then there might be a slight chance."
"There’s plenty of time ahead!"
Xia Ji rambled on, "With your qualifications and combat power, it would be no difficulty for you to ascend the Dragon-Tiger List; the key is just how high you can rank."
"That's true, that's true!"
"Exactly, exactly!"
"His Highness the Crown Prince makes a valid point!"
A large group of guests who had been left hanging quickly chimed in to agree. They considered themselves young talents in the secular world, accomplished at a young age, but compared to someone like Xia Yunxi, who stood at the pinnacle of the pyramid, they felt like they were worlds apart.
Although their elders hoped they could get closer to Princess Yunxi and win her favor with sincerity and genuine feelings, deep down, these so-called young talents were somewhat aware of their own limitations. Standing next to her felt like a toad beside a swan!
Even though Xia Yunxi had not yet made it onto the Dragon-Tiger List, it was simply because she had not made a name for herself in the Xuanhuang Great World since coming down from the mountain. Anyone with a normal mindset would understand what being a disciple of the Supreme Forgetting Emotion Sect represented.
Every generation of the Supreme Forgetting Emotion Sect's disciples, once they challenge the Dragon-Tiger List, is bound to create a sensation! Otherwise, the Saint Void Young Master, who ranks forty-third on the Dragon-Tiger List, wouldn't have traveled thousands of miles from the far west to Shengjing City just to compete with Xia Yunxi.
Unfortunately, the expedition was in vain. He couldn't even pass Xia Ji's test and couldn't withstand a single move.
Ah...
The other guests began to realize.
It seems that there is another rising future powerhouse in the arena! Moreover, this individual might inherit a dynasty and become a strong figure that defines an era!
"Congratulations to His Highness the Crown Prince for making it onto the Dragon-Tiger List!"
"His Highness the Crown Prince is awesome!" (with a voice crack)
A few perceptive and quick-witted individuals immediately stood up to offer their congratulations.
Although they didn't know his exact ranking, it certainly wouldn't be lower than that of the Saint Void Young Master. After all, His Highness the Crown Prince defeated the Saint Void Young Master with a single move!
