After fairy Hao Yue finished speaking, many Jin Dan cultivators began to make their own plans. However, at this moment, there was a gentle cough from one of the people seated above. The voice, which contained spiritual force, immediately silenced everyone.
Everyone looked towards the source of the voice and focused on the Yuanying cultivator of the Righteous Alliance, Jing Xue. He slowly asked, "May I ask how I can catch young miss Xuan Shuang's attention?"
With that, everyone's attention immediately returned to Hao Yue and Xuan Shuang. Hao Yue slowly said, "The requirements to become a son-in-law of my Snow Palace are not low. First, your bone age cannot exceed three hundred years. Second, you must be an outstanding talent, a famous alchemist, or a weapon refiner. Third, you must be willing to leave your sect for my disciple Xuan Shuang."
As soon as he finished speaking, a look of hesitation appeared on the faces of everyone present. The first and second conditions could be considered to be achievable, but the third condition was really a little too much. For example, Feng Renhan and Shi Lingfeng had completely lost confidence. It was no wonder that they were asked to leave their sects and join the Snow Palace. They were definitely unwilling to do so.
Soon after, more than half of the people present lost interest. Most of the people remaining were independent cultivators and cultivators who had failed in their sects.
Yi Tian secretly observed Jing Xue's reaction from his seat. He saw Jing Xue frown slightly before returning to normal. He glanced at the cultivators below and smiled faintly.
Seeing him so confident, Yi Tian inwardly cursed. It seemed like the Righteous Path Alliance had made many preparations. There were likely a few Righteous Path Alliance spies among the JinDan cultivators present. Perhaps, they would reveal themselves in a moment.
Just as she was thinking about that, she suddenly heard Shi Chongmou ask from beside Jing Xue, "Fairy Hao Yue seems to have forgotten something. The invitation also mentioned that Nascent Soul cultivators under four hundred years of age can participate, right?"
Hearing this, Haoyue's face darkened. He then nodded helplessly and replied, "That's true. However, if a Yuanying cultivator were to spar with a junior from the Jin Dan, he would be accused of bullying the weak. The Snow Palace would not dare to tarnish his reputation. Let's just drop the matter."
Shi Chongmou looked up to the sky and laughed, "Palace Master Bright Moon, you're exaggerating. I'm willing to give it a try. As for sparring with a junior, that's even easier. I'll suppress my cultivation to the early Jin Dan stage. As long as there's someone who can win, I won't go back on my word."
At this moment, Haoyue and Lian Yue revealed awkward expressions. However, this matter was written on the invitation, so they couldn't deny it. Moreover, even though Shi Chongmou had suppressed his cultivation base to the early Jin Dan realm, his understanding of techniques had long surpassed the scope of ordinary Jin Dan cultivators. To put it bluntly, even a late Jin Dan cultivator would not be able to gain an advantage against him.
Shortly after, Lian Yue asked, "Fellow Cultivator, do you know that the Snow Palace has a strict requirement for the bone age of Yuanying cultivators to not exceed 400 years old?"
Shi Chongmou didn't back down and said, "You're worrying too much. I've wasted 398 years this year. If you don't believe me, you can test my bone age here."
As a result, the whole scene became extremely awkward. Suddenly, a delicate voice broke the silence, "Bring the bone age stone." After receiving the order, a group of female guards directly ran to the entrance of the main hall and brought back a piece of raw stone with a radius of one foot.
Then, Shi Chongmou placed his hand on the stone in front of everyone. With a flash of light, the color of the bone age stone changed from red to orange, then to yellow, then to green. Even when the light flashed to the limit, it still didn't turn green.
This was the first time Yi Tian had seen a bone age stone like this. To one side, Feng Renhan hurriedly explained through a communication technique, "The bone age stone is divided into seven colors: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet. It changes color every century. If Shi Chongmou doesn't turn green, he's not 400 years old."
"Oh? Then does that mean that the stone is flashing to a deep green mean that he's extremely close to 400 years old?" Yi Tian asked.
Feng Renhan nodded, "Of course. I never thought that Shi Chongmou would be so powerful."
Although fairy Hao Yue's face did not change at all, a sliver of worry flashed through her eyes. After Shi Chongmou was done, he said to Hao Yue in a carefree manner, "May I participate now? I will suppress my cultivation to the early Jin Dan realm in a moment, and I welcome all the cultivators present to challenge me. "
With that, quite a few people immediately began to back out. What a joke. Sparring with a Yuanying cultivator was no joke.
Even if he were to suppress his cultivation to the early Golden Core stage, if he were to provoke him and kill him on the spot in a fit of rage, the sect would not fall out with him over this.
After all, offending an early Yuanying cultivator for a Jin Dan cultivator was not a wise move.
A while later, many of the Jin Dan cultivators who wanted to participate could only give up. Everyone had nothing better to do, so they just sat there and drank, completely ignoring the matter before them.
Even the table that Yi Tian was sitting at immediately quieted down. The three of them continuously poured wine cups and drank.
After a long while, Shi Chongmou laughed in disdain, "Fellow Hao Yue, since all the cultivators here are silent, can I assume that they've all given up?"
Haoyue was rendered speechless by these words, but a trace of killing intent flashed in his eyes. He turned to his disciple Xuan Shuang and said, "Disciple, these cultivators of the famous sects are not willing to stand up for you. What do you think we should do?"
Xuan Shuang slowly walked up, "I've been in love with a fellow cultivator for a long time. I want to ask him to spar with senior Shi. If I lose, I'll accept it."
With that, the atmosphere in the hall immediately livened up. Many people wanted to see who Xuan Shuang Fairy wanted to find to help her through this.
Hao Yue and the others also hesitated for a while, then nodded, "Fine, I believe in your eyes. Go and ask that person to come up." Although she said that, the hesitation in her eyes didn't disappear.
Xuan Shuang bowed to her master and slowly walked down the stage. Then she walked to the right of the first row until she reached the table at the end. She said to the three people in front of her, "Xuan Shuang has admired fellow cultivator for a long time. Please help me. After this, I'm willing to be your wife for a hundred years. I'll sleep with you and serve you with all my heart."
With that, Feng Renhan's expression changed several times. Then he glanced at the two people beside him. Yi Tian sat there and sipped his wine. He wondered if he had given himself away and let Xuan Shuang see through him. He raised his head and looked at Xuan Shuang. A gleam of excitement flashed across her eyes. Under the veil, Xuan Shuang showed an expectant smile.
Before Yi Tian could reply, Shi Lingfeng, who was sitting at the side, stood up and shouted, "Fellow Daoist has such a sincere request. If we still don't act, then we are unworthy of being men. I agree to this matter."
