In next to no time, the food was served.
After Duan Lingtian casually ate a little, he concentrated on looking at the little gold mouse wolfing down the food …
The little fellow's body looked to be small, yet it was a huge eater.
This caused many people in the restaurant to click their tongues in wonder.
Suddenly, a wave of discussion sounded out by Duan Lingtian's ears.
"Quickly finish eating and we'll be able to rush over to watch the Groom Search Competition before the City Governor's daughter ends!"
"The strength of the City Governor's daughter is too strong. Not to mention young geniuses below the age of 25 … Even if it's the young geniuses below the age of 30 in our Darkstone Empire, I'm afraid only a few are her match."
"Today is the last day of the Groom Search Competition. Practically all the young geniuses in the surroundings of our Phoenix Nest City have rushed over … But, in my opinion, even if it's the last day, I'm afraid no one is able to defeat the City Governor's daughter and become the son-in-law of the City Governor."
"The City Governor's requirements are too high. A person below the age of 25 that can defeat his daughter … Even in the entire Darkstone Empire, or even the Darkhan Dynasty, such a person is probably an existence that's rare like phoenix feathers and qilin horns. "
…
The two people that were in discussion hurriedly finished their food and left.
Groom Search Competition?
Duan Lingtian shook his head and smiled. He never imagined that he would encounter a plot that only appeared in martial arts novels of his previous life.
In next to no time, another few people walked into the restaurant, and they sighed with emotion as they walked.
"I wonder exactly what cultivation the City Governor's daughter possesses. Today, that young man around the age of 24 or 25 with a cultivation at the fourth level of the Nascent Soul Stage was actually defeated by her … "
"That young man is the person with the strongest strength amongst all the people that participated in the Groom Search Competition … I never imagined that he would still be defeated by the City Governor's daughter in one go! The City Governor's daughter is strong when facing a strong opponent, and she seems to have not used her full strength until now. "
"Looks like no one is able to win the heart of the beauty."
"Beauty? According to my knowledge, the City Governor's daughter wears a veil all day … Could it be that you've seen her true appearance? I wonder if she's a beauty or an ugly girl. "
"So what if she's an ugly girl? Being able to become the son-in-law of the City Governor and obtain the Soul Transformation Fruit is undoubtedly a fortune. "
…
Soul Transformation Fruit?
Duan Lingtian wasn't sad at first, but when he heard one of them mention the Soul Transformation Fruit, his expression changed, and he stood up abruptly.
"Big Brother."
Duan Lingtian looked at the middle-aged man and asked politely, "Did you just say 'Soul Transformation Fruit'?"
When the middle-aged man saw that Duan Lingtian was so polite, he nodded and said with a calm expression, "That's right, it's the Soul Transformation Fruit! Why, little brother, are you interested in the Soul Transformation Fruit? "
"Yes."
Duan Lingtian nodded, and then asked: "I heard Big Brother say that you have a way to obtain the Soul Transformation Fruit?"
The middle-aged man nodded, "That's right. In these past ten days, the Lord City Governor has held a martial competition to find a spouse for his unmarried daughter, and today is the last day … So long as you defeat the City Governor's daughter in the martial competition, then not only will you become the Lord City Governor's son-in-law, you'll even be able to obtain the Soul Transformation Fruit. "
"Supposedly, this Soul Transformation Fruit is a good thing … If it's consumed by an Inscription Master, then it's even able to allow one's Spiritual Force to advance by a level."
As he finished speaking, the middle aged man sized Duan Ling Tian up from top to bottom. "Little Brother, based on your age, you're only slightly older than the City Governor's daughter … However, I advise you to put away this thought. Even though you satisfy the conditions to enter the martial competition for the City Governor's daughter, the City Governor's daughter has revealed a cultivation at the fifth level of the Nascent Soul Stage. Moreover, she seems to be holding back. "
"Thank you, Big Brother."
Duan Lingtian thanked the middle-aged man, then threw down the silver before leaving the restaurant in a hurry with the little gold mouse.
"Big Brother Ling Tian, I haven't finished eating yet …"
The little gold mouse's voice transmission contained slight dissatisfaction mixed within.
"I'll let you eat your fill later. I have some urgent things to do now."
Duan Lingtian spoke hurriedly.
After leaving the restaurant, Duan Lingtian found a passerby and asked about the location of the martial competition for the City Governor's daughter before hastily rushing over.
He wasn't interested in the City Governor's son-in-law in the slightest.
What he was interested in was the Soul Transformation Fruit!
If it was said that ordinary spirit fruits could only be chanced upon by luck to a martial artist.
Then the Soul Transformation Fruit was even rarer!
The Soul Transformation Fruit was a spirit fruit that was capable of improving the level of the soul, and its proportion amongst the numerous spirit fruits in Cloud Continent didn't exceed 1%.
"Even though my cultivation has improved greatly … But my Spiritual Force seems to have completely fallen into a bottleneck, and I've been unable to break through to the Void Prying Stage for a long time."
The martial competition for a spouse was carried out before the City Governor's Estate.
When Duan Lingtian arrived before the martial competition arena, his state of mind fluttered.
His Spiritual Force had long since arrived at the critical point between the Nascent Soul Stage and the Void Prying Stage, yet it was unable to break through.
Because of this, he was at a loss and helpless.
Now, he saw the light of hope.
"If there's really a Soul Transformation Fruit, then once I consume it, my soul will transform and advance to the next level, the Void Prying Stage! At that time, my Spiritual Force will become strong once again, and I'll be able to inscribe even higher level inscriptions. "
When he thought up to here, Duan Lingtian's mood surged.
Even though there were numerous exceedingly formidable inscriptions in the memories of Samsara Emperor Wu.
But Duan Lingtian's Spiritual Force was limited, and it was difficult for him to inscribe those formidable inscriptions.
It was like having an empty treasure mountain, yet not having the tools to excavate it.
All along, this feeling had caused Duan Lingtian to be extremely displeased.
"Martial competition for a spouse? Fun, fun … Big Brother Ling Tian, you want to marry the City Governor's daughter? Aren't you afraid of Big Sister Kerr and Big Sister Fei 'er getting angry? "
The little gold mouse's voice transmission was filled with excitement, and as she finished speaking, she wished for the world to be in chaos.
Duan Lingtian glared at the little gold mouse. "I don't have the slightest interest in that City Governor's daughter … I only want to obtain that Soul Transformation Fruit!"
Ordinary spirit fruits were things that could only be chanced upon by luck, and were priceless.
The Soul Transformation Fruit was a spirit fruit that accounted for less than 1% of the spirit fruits that could improve the soul, and it was even more something that could only be chanced upon by luck.
Now, since Duan Lingtian had encountered it, he wouldn't easily miss it.
In next to no time, Duan Lingtian arrived at his destination.
A high platform stood before the City Governor's Estate, and it was extremely spacious.
It was precisely the Groom Search Competition's combat arena.
Streams of people flowed in the vicinity of the combat arena, and it was extremely bustling, and shouts rose and fell continuously without end.
"The Groom Search Competition is split into 10 days, and today is already the last day … Our Phoenix Nest City, and even the tens of cities in the surrounding area actually doesn't have a single young genius below the age of 25 that's a match for the City Governor's daughter."
"I heard the City Governor's daughter is only 20 years old … Possesses a mysterious and unfathomable cultivation at the age of 20, shocking! Until now, there's only someone that forced her to utilize the strength of a fifth level Nascent Soul Stage martial artist. "
"Yeah, even then, she seems to still be holding back."
A group of people discussed animatedly before the City Governor's Estate.
At this moment, on the Groom Search Competition's combat arena.
The mysterious City Governor's daughter stood there slender and elegant, and a pair of soft hands that were white like jade were exposed. She wore a fiery red veil that perfectly accentuated her graceful figure, causing one to be unable to refrain from daydreaming.
The City Governor's daughter wore a fiery red veil on her face, and only a pair of beautiful eyes that were like autumn water was revealed. Her beautiful hair that drooped down was like a drooping willow that lightly brushed with the wind.
Even though she was amidst a sea of people, she still gave one a tranquil and peaceful feeling.
"Although I can't see her appearance clearly, but merely based on this bearing, it's sufficient to move one's heart … A woman with such a bearing, I presume the appearance beneath the veil wouldn't be too bad."
Duan Lingtian's heart shook.
Merely in terms of bearing, amongst the women by Duan Lingtian's side and even amongst the women he knew, there weren't many that could compare to this City Governor's daughter.
Under his curiosity, Duan Lingtian's Spiritual Force stretched out, wanting to pry into the depths of this City Governor's daughter.
According to the information he'd obtained up until now.
The City Governor's daughter was only 20 years old and possessed an extraordinary cultivation.
Up until now, she'd revealed a cultivation at the fifth level of the Nascent Soul Stage, but she seemed to still be holding back.
"The advancement of my cultivation can be considered to be swift … In the Azure Forest Imperial Kingdom, it's second to none. I never imagined that I'd actually encounter a genius in the Martial Dao whose cultivation has advanced faster than mine in a city in a remote area of the Darkstone Empire. "
At the same time that Duan Lingtian's Spiritual Force flashed, he sighed with emotion in his heart.
If the cultivation of this City Governor's daughter wasn't attained by relying on spirit fruits alone.
In terms of natural talent, she would absolutely not be inferior to him.
"Hmm?"
Suddenly, Duan Lingtian's Spiritual Force hadn't even touched the City Governor's daughter when he couldn't help but be greatly shocked in his heart.
Because at this moment, an even stronger Spiritual Force seemed to have noticed his Spiritual Force, and it directly pressed down towards him …
"Inscription Master!"
Duan Lingtian's pupils constricted, as he never imagined that there was such a formidable Inscription Master by the side of the City Governor's daughter.
The Spiritual Force of this Inscription Master was more than a level stronger than him!
Instantly, Duan Lingtian didn't dare hesitate in the slightest, and he hurriedly withdrew his Spiritual Force.
That formidable Spiritual Force seemed to have no intention of fuss about it with Duan Lingtian, and it didn't pursue after Duan Lingtian's Spiritual Force withdrew.
"Fortunately, he showed mercy, otherwise, my soul would surely be injured!"
Duan Lingtian felt a wave of fear in his heart, and at the same time, he realized his own rashness.
According to the memories of the Samsara Emperor Wu.
He knew very well that even if it was an Inscription Master, he didn't dare rashly utilize his Spiritual Force to spy on another.
This was a taboo.
Whereas he hadn't encountered any formidable Inscription Masters all along the way, so he'd tossed the taboo in this portion of the memories of the Samsara Emperor Wu to the back of his mind.
Now, he'd left the Azure Forest Imperial Kingdom and instead encountered a truly formidable Inscription Master in the Darkstone Empire.
Duan Lingtian's gaze started to sweep through the crowd, as he wanted to find the owner of that formidable Spiritual Force that stretched out …
But no matter how he searched, he didn't notice a trace of that person.
That person seemed to have appeared out of thin air.
"Could it be that this Inscription Master has come for the Soul Transformation Fruit as well?"
