As time passed, more and more people started to gather, and more of them were becoming more and more handsome, so at this time, he could not show it, but those long purple hair and purple eyes were perhaps different from ordinary people. This also caused the people around him to look at him with a strange expression, clearly not understanding why there was such a strange person around.
Zhang Fan didn't seem to care at all. He stood there silently.
Time continued to pass, and soon after noon, an elder came walking out with a few people. Seeing so many people gathered at the entrance of the palace, he couldn't help but reveal an astonished expression.
Following the appearance of the old man, the currently extremely chaotic place turned extremely quiet at this moment.
The elder's eyes swept across the crowd and he said, "Today is the day of Princess Yi Yue's enrollment. I will announce a few requirements here. Those that cannot meet them, you can leave on your own accord."
"Very simple. There are only two points. First, the age must not exceed thirty. Second, one's strength must not be lower than the Martial King's ability to reach these two points. You should leave now."
The old man's voice was extremely indifferent as he swept his gaze over the crowd. At this time, there was no small commotion in the plaza, and those that did not meet the requirements also turned around and left.
With the departure of most of the people, there were still three hundred left in the hall.
"Very good, those who remain will undergo a strict examination. Alright, let's split up into three groups, register now!" The old man's voice sounded again, at this time, the surrounding people started to move, and the people brought by the old man also began to prepare. The assessment crystal ball, registration form, and card were all prepared.
Then, one by one, they began to register.
At this moment, Zhang Fan was at the back of the third line, but luckily, his registration speed was quite fast. After the exam was over, he would log into his own empire or faction and give them his card before leaving.
It was only around three o'clock in the afternoon when it was Zhang Fan's turn for the inspection of his team's hundred plus people. Needless to say, there would definitely be no problems.
"Name!" The person in charge of the level said indifferently.
"Lingfeng!" Zhang Fan's eyes flickered slightly as he said two words. He did not say his real name, but turned it upside down just like Yue Yi. Actually, he was not sure if it was the opposite or not because he could also leave during the competition.
"I belong to the Azure Dragon Empire, age 22." Zhang Fan blurted out the information in one go.
"En, very good." The man nodded his head. He took out a card and gave it to Zhang Fan. "Tomorrow, we will continue to gather here. At that time, we will announce the results as well."
When he arrived outside, he couldn't help but glance at the number on the card and see that it was 203. He then shrugged his shoulders, put it away, and walked out of the room, heading directly towards the direction of the restaurant.
In the evening, in the study room of the palace, a man looked at the two lists and carefully examined them. After examining them, he frowned, then looked at them once more unwillingly. His eyebrows furrowed even more, and on the third time, the man put down the list and slammed his fist on the table.
"Why hasn't he come?" The voice trembled slightly. After a long time, he leaned back on the wooden chair and began to think. What could he do now? Tell his sister. If she knew, what would she do?
He knew very well that his sister might do something stupid, so when he thought of this, his eyes revealed a little guilt.
Sighing, his expression grew even more self-reproachful. But soon after, resolution appeared on his face once more. Since that was the case, he could only use his own resources to send his sister away from the Mystic Moon Empire.
Thinking of this, the man's expression became even more resolute.
As night fell, a woman sat on the edge of a bed. She looked at the bracelet in her hands, and her expression was one of infatuation. The knocking on the door continued. The woman stood up and opened the door.
"Big brother …" The woman's expression flickered before she quickly asked, "Is he on the list?"
When the man heard this, he hesitated for a moment before finally saying, "I didn't see the two names you mentioned …"
The woman's body trembled slightly. Her face was slightly pale. Such a long period of anticipation had all been exchanged for this result …
Seeing the girl's eyes gradually turn red, the man said, "Sister, how about this. I'll arrange for you to leave the palace and continue to leave. I brought you back with me. Now that something like this has happened, I have a certain amount of responsibility."
"Big brother, you don't need to say anymore!" The woman shook her head, and tears also quietly flowed down her pale face. But soon after, she took a deep breath, wiped her little face, and said, "I can't harm your big brother.
"Little sister, you can't do such a stupid thing!" The man was stunned after hearing that. Naturally, he noticed the woman's expression.
"Don't worry, I'll be fine." The woman shook her head and didn't say anything else. She turned around and walked to the bedside.
The man took a deep breath and looked deeply at the girl for the last time. Then, he turned around and left. When he closed the door behind him, he instructed the two maids to take good care of the princess before leaving.0
At this moment, the woman was lying on the bed, her body trembling slightly. She held the bracelet in her hands and hugged her chest. Since there was no way out, what else could she do?
The second day, another sunny day. Zhang Fan continued to eat at the foot of the mountain as per usual, before heading in the direction of the palace.
When he arrived, he realized that there were already quite a few people waiting there. After Zhang Fan went over, he naturally wasn't anxious. He stood in a remote area and waited.
As time passed, more and more people came. When it was about ten o'clock, the old man that Zhang Fan had seen yesterday walked out. After looking, Zhang Fan walked over.
The old man's eyes swept across the crowd, then he said: "Alright, the people who passed the examination yesterday, gather inside. Also, you need everyone's card to enter."
As the old man finished speaking, he swept his eyes over the crowd once more and walked directly in, leaving behind the examinees who were going through the motions one by one.
Zhang Fan was still calm as ever as he conducted the final inspection before walking in.
The old man stood at the front and said: "This time, the princess will marry the champion, and the competition will be very simple. There will be five stages, and the last five stages will be used by the people to compete in the final round. During the tournament, the princess will personally come to watch, so everyone should work hard and I will divide it right now."
The old man started to announce the results of his speech. In the end, Zhang Fan was placed on platform number 4. Each platform had around fifty to sixty people.
After saying that, the old man directly read out the rules. Basically, one could not deliberately inflict heavy injuries or cause human lives to appear, or else they would be disqualified from the competition.
After saying this, the old man brought them towards the inner part of the palace. When they arrived at the arena, Zhang Fan discovered that the arena was rather large, with seven to eight battle platforms distributed around it. Five old men sat on each of the five platforms, and it was obvious that they were the judges.
At this moment, there were already many people sitting on top of the pagoda. The person in the middle, who wore an Emperor Armament robe, had an extremely serious expression on his face. With the light that flickered from time to time, it also proved that the Mystic Moon Empire's Monarch was not simple.
He also saw a few middle-aged women around the emperor. Other than them, there were also a few young men. One of them was someone he was extremely familiar with — it was the man that brought Yue Yi away.
Other than them, there were a few old men and some middle-aged men on the two sides of the pavilion. These people might be some of the larger clans of the Mystic Moon Empire, or they might even be powerful ministers.
However, he did not care about any of this. The most important matter was still that man. If he remembered correctly, that man seemed to be called Chen Yi.
In fact, when he saw this, he already somewhat understood what was going on. Adding on the fact that so many coincidences had occurred to him, perhaps Princess Yeyue was Yue Yi. However, he did not expect that she would actually be a princess.
Thinking of this, a strange look appeared in his eyes.
His eyes flickered slightly, then he turned around and walked to the exit of platform number 4. After he was done distributing the resources, the old man looked up at the emperor and said, "Emperor, everyone has been allocated."
"En, you may begin." A calm and dignified voice rang out.
As the emperor's voice faded away, the old man turned around and said, "Alright, every battle platform is ready for the competition!"
As his voice faded, the old men on the five platforms nodded their heads and began to announce the results. At this time, two men jumped onto each of the five platforms. As his voice fell, the match finally began.
Zhang Fan was watching from below with a strange expression in his eyes. At this moment, the people on the pavilion also started to look …
