Chapter 72 Let them experience the awe-inspiring power of the Qin Dynasty.
The relationship between the Murong family and the Huangfu dynasty is definitely not simple.
Ying Chen stood up, walked up to the two of them, and said with a smile, "Miss Murong, I didn't expect to meet you here. What a coincidence!"
"Hehe! I didn't expect you to be the Qin Emperor. I thought your name was Chen Ying!"
Murong Yishuang said in a sarcastic tone.
Upon hearing Murong Yishuang's words, Ying Chen's face showed a hint of embarrassment.
It's really embarrassing to be caught lying!
"Please forgive me, Miss Murong. It's always good to be careful when you're out and about!"
Ying Chen said apologetically.
Murong Yishuang remained silent, but Xuemei spoke up, "Your Majesty, besides attending your enthronement ceremony, I have another matter to discuss with you in Great Qin..."
"Oh? There are other suitable ones?"
Ying Chen asked, puzzled.
"The Murong family's Genius Tournament is about to begin, and the younger generation from the entire Xuanxing Domain will be attending..."
"His Majesty sent me to convey this message to you: Great Qin can decide for itself whether to go or not!"
Xuemei recounted the events of the Genius Tournament.
Hearing her words, Ying Chen pondered for a moment.
The Qin imperial family's collection of books does indeed contain information about the Genius Tournament, but it's very limited. All that's known is that the tournament is held alternately by several reclusive families and the Huangfu Dynasty...
It is held once every thousand years, and other than that, there is no other useful information.
After all, the Great Qin rarely participated in previous genius tournaments, and even when they did, they would just send someone to make a show of it.
Are there any restrictions on this genius tournament?
Ying Chen asked.
"You'd have to ask Miss Murong. This talent competition is being hosted by the Murong family, so she's most familiar with these things..."
Xuemei stepped aside to make way for Murong Yishuang, revealing her completely, and said.
Murong Yishuang glanced at Xue Mei before stepping forward and saying, "The Genius Tournament doesn't have many restrictions; the only restrictions are age and cultivation level!"
"Applicants must be under 100 years old and have reached the Golden Core stage in cultivation. There are no other restrictions..."
Ying Chen nodded to indicate that he understood. At the same time, he also had a plan in mind, but he did not agree to them directly.
"You two should go and rest first! I need to discuss this matter with my ministers before making a decision. I will send someone to inform you when there is a result..."
Ying Chen spoke up.
"Alright, we'll stay at the Court of State Ceremonial during this time. Once we have the results, His Majesty the Emperor can send someone to inform us!"
Xuemei nodded and said.
"Could you please tell us again, when will the Genius Tournament begin? We'd like to be prepared!"
Just as the two were leaving, Ying Chen spoke again.
Murong Yishuang thought for a moment and said, "If you calculate the time, there are only six months left until the start of the Genius Tournament. If you want to participate, you should prepare early!"
Ying Chen nodded and said, "Okay!"
"If you need anything from the Court of State Ceremonial, just give the order to the officials there, and they will meet your needs..."
Murong Yishuang and Xuemei nodded and then left the Imperial Study.
After they left, Ying Chen summoned Xun Yu, Guo Jia, Zhao Yun, and Dian Wei.
Then, he told them about the Genius Tournament.
"Do you think we should participate in this genius tournament?"
After Ying Chen finished explaining, he asked a question.
The four of them fell into thought after hearing Ying Chen's words.
After a moment, Guo Jia stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, I think we can participate. We can select a few Nascent Soul Realm generals from the various legions to participate!"
In fact, none of the top combatants in the Great Qin Dynasty are over a hundred years old and are qualified to participate in the competition. However, they all have the cultivation level of the Void Refining Realm. It would be too unfair for them to compete with those cultivators who are at most at the Golden Core or Nascent Soul stage!
Therefore, selecting from the military is the most suitable option.
Ying Chen nodded, then looked at the remaining three and asked, "What do you think?"
"Your Majesty Guo is absolutely right. We can take this opportunity to learn more about the power of the Xuanxing Domain and make plans for the future!"
Xun Yu spoke.
Zhao Yun nodded expressionlessly.
"Me too!"
Dian Wei suddenly blurted out a sentence.
Everyone's eyes immediately turned to him.
Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Dian Wei awkwardly scratched his head and said, "What I mean is, I also agree to participate!"
Only then did the others turn their gaze elsewhere.
Yes, that's right! Why are you making such a fuss and scaring us?
"Very well, since everyone agrees, then select ten Nascent Soul experts from the various legions to accompany me to the Murong family to participate in the Genius Conference six months later, so that the forces of the Xuanxing Domain can feel the awe of the Great Qin!"
Ying Chen smiled and spoke.
"Here!"
The four of them spoke respectfully.
A smile also appeared on his face.
Afterwards, Ying Chen sent someone to the Honglu Temple to inform them that the Great Qin Dynasty was going to participate in the Genius Tournament.
After everything was settled, Ying Chen finally had some peace and quiet.
He began what he had been most looking forward to.
Let's start with an appetizer.
"System, retrieve the reward for defeating the extraterrestrial demon!"
Ying Chen said in his mind.
"Ding! Extraction successful. Congratulations, host, you have obtained three top-grade spiritual veins, three heaven-rank magic treasures, and three sets of heaven-rank formations!"
"???"
Three question marks appeared above Ying Chen's head.
What's going on? Is that all?
Actually, this reward is quite good; any one of them would cause a huge uproar if placed in the outside world.
However, it was slightly inferior to the previous times.
Not a single summon card!
"It's alright, I guess! Better than nothing!"
Ying Chen pursed his lips and said.
Ying Chen felt he was getting a little too cocky; he wasn't satisfied yet!
Any one of these things, if left out, would be enough to cause a bloodbath!
"System, place three top-grade spiritual veins beneath the capital!"
Ying Chen spoke to the system in his mind.
"Ding, placement successful!"
The system's voice then sounded.
At the same time, Ying Chen felt the spiritual energy in the capital city increase exponentially.
It reached an extremely high concentration in a short period of time.
In some places, the phenomenon of spiritual energy turning into liquid has even occurred.
