"Since Prince Xue Qinghe has confirmed it, that means this beggar is truly Your Majesty!"
"What special reason could Your Majesty have for disguising himself as a beggar?"
"Could it be a task assigned by Senior Lin Yi?"
"Tsk, tsk, tsk. Does Lin Yi have that much charm? I don't believe it. That's Emperor Xue Ye after all! He wasn't like this before."
"Wait, what did Prince Qing He just say?"
The Shrek Camp.
Ning Rongrong looked at the big screen with delight: "Prince Qing He! It's Prince Qing He! Prince Qing He is still as handsome as ever!"
Tang San smiled and nodded: "Yes, Prince Xue Qinghe is—sister?!"
Suddenly, Tang San's eyes widened. Even he, who was usually calm, nearly lost his composure at this moment!
My god, what did he see...
On the big screen, as soon as Xue Qinghe finished speaking, he raised his hand to his face. A flurry of golden feathers brushed over her body, enveloping it like a cocoon, and the next second, they dissipated with the wind.
Golden hair fell down, a gold-level battle dress transformed into a long golden gown, and beneath the gown were two fair, well-proportioned legs. Moving upward, her body was hot with clear curves. Qian Renxue opened her eyes, her long eyelashes curling upwards. She shook her golden hair at the back of her head, and an angelic face appeared on the big screen.
Not only was Tang San stunned, his father, Tang Hao, was too, and so was his uncle, Tang Xiao.
A woman? Tang San still couldn't accept how the gentle and refined Brother Qing He had suddenly turned into the beautiful Sister Qing He!
Qian Renxue lifted her fair face: "My name is Qian Renxue, the granddaughter of Great Priest Qian Daoliu of the Martial Soul Hall, the daughter of the previous Pope Qian Xunji. Xue Qinghe was just my disguise; I am an undercover agent who infiltrated the Heaven Dou Royal Family."
The Star Luo Host: "Tsk, such family misfortune—"
Where did they find this host?! One that jokes without considering the situation? Dai Ben was frightened and coughed twice in haste, but alas, he was not visible on the big screen.
In the footage, Emperor Xue Ye looked desolate by her side.
It was unimaginable that he had to watch this heart-attack-inducing plot unfold twice.
On the Tiandou side, apart from the silent live audience, there was only the sound of the Heaven Dou Host swallowing his saliva incessantly.
Acting as the mouthpiece for everyone, he didn't immediately doubt the veracity of Qian Renxue's words but seemed captivated by the divine beauty on the big screen and, as if possessed, he asked, "Then, beautiful Miss Qian, would you like to take this opportunity to say a few words?"
"Ah?"
Qian Renxue hadn't expected to have a chance to speak. She fiddled with her golden hair, looking somewhat flustered. She had only planned to reveal her true identity to the entire continent, to avoid any future misunderstandings.
"Well then... I'll say a few words."
Qian Renxue's sharp gaze turned towards Bi Bidong—she wanted to criticize this malicious woman in front of the entire continent!
"Cough."
Bi Bidong coughed expressionlessly.
Instinctively, Qian Renxue felt an increased pain in her posterior; she timidly changed her speech on the fly: "Uh... Martial Soul Hall will be victorious, we will be the ultimate champions, bye."
Qian Renxue walked away from the screen, cursing under her breath, leaving only a trace of golden hair that continued to tug at everyone's heartstrings.
"She's so beautiful! I really want to switch sides and support the Martial Soul Hall..."
"This brother's thoughts coincide with mine!"
...
The stunning "transformation" by Qian Renxue had suddenly provoked intense discussion among the audience at the Sky Dou Arena.
The host quickly worked to maintain order at the scene.
Just then, Chen Xin ran into the frame and handed the golden Emperor's Order to Emperor Xue Ye: "Your Majesty, you left this at the inn; I just went back to retrieve it."
```
"Sorry for the trouble, Sword Douluo."
Excited, Ning Rongrong shouted, "It's Sword Grandfather! Sword Grandfather, it's me! I'm Ning Rongrong!"
However, Chen Xin on the big screen only glanced at Ning Rongrong, then turned away with a complex expression, as if he had no intention of greeting Ning Rongrong at all.
"Hmph! Not helping Shrek Academy, and now you don't recognize me either?!"
Ning Rongrong stomped her foot in anger.
"The Emperor's Order, it seems that really was His Majesty Emperor Xue Ye!"
"Indeed, even Sword Douluo His Excellency has come forth to confirm it!"
"I don't want to see His Majesty Xue Ye, I want to see Prince Qinghe!"
"I second that motion!"
"Brother, your stance is that weak?"
"In my eyes, good looks are justice!"
...
Emperor Xue Ye gestured with the Emperor's Order in hand, then began his speech.
"Meeting Senior Lin Yi has been fortunate for Heaven Dou, fortunate for me. I've changed so much these past days, all thanks to Senior Lin Yi. Perhaps you can only see the changes in my appearance, but I want to say, that's just the tip of the iceberg. The real change in me will be showcased at the Soul Master competition, and you will be amazed."
"The new Soul Master competition has been long prepared by Senior Lin Yi, and I have been looking forward to it. I will also join the Heaven Dou Royal Academy as a special guest member..."
The audience in the Sky Dou Arena listened quietly, growing more and more astonished.
Only then did they realize how highly Emperor Xue Ye regarded Lin Yi, even willing to call himself a junior in Lin Yi's presence.
This made everyone even more eager to know what kind of person Lin Yi was.
Yu Tianheng smiled. He had heard a few days ago that Emperor Xue Ye and Ning Fengzhi among others were joining the Heaven Dou Royal Academy. These powerful figures, so close to Lin Yi, would surely bring many surprises.
Heaven Dou Royal Academy was sure to place among the top in the competition. He looked up at Davis on the big screen, his expression becoming more serious in an instant.
This time, he must defeat Davis!
What Yu Tianheng didn't know was that the special guest members of the Star Luo Royal Academy were each more terrifying than the last.
Following Emperor Xue Ye's stirring speech, as was customary, it was time for the speech of Sect Master Ning Fengzhi, from one of the upper three families, the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect.
The Tian Dou host led the applause and, with a smile, spoke, "Now, let us invite our esteemed Sect Master Ning Fengzhi of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect to give his speech! Please welcome him with a warm round of applause!"
The applause was thunderous.
Tang Xiao frowned, "Ning Fengzhi is in Soul City too? The Seven Treasures Glaze Sect really hit the jackpot this time."
Tang Hao: "But I am surprised he's not supporting his daughter's team."
Tang Xiao: "Perhaps there's a special reason... Where is he, though? Why hasn't he come on stage?"
The host's smile was almost frozen on his face, with no sign of Ning Fengzhi appearing on the big screen.
Ning Rongrong glared at the big screen, fuming, "Oh, great! Not joining our Shrek Academy, and now too ashamed to face his daughter, is that it?!"
Host: "Let's welcome Sect Master Ning once again with a round of warm applause!"
After another round of applause, Ning Fengzhi still didn't appear on the big screen.
Lin Yi casually moved his fingers, shifting the big screen's perspective to the Heaven Dou faction's direction.
All that was seen were Emperor Xue Ye, dressed as a beggar, Chen Xin, Gu Rong, and a little girl crouched on the ground playing with mud on the screen, but still no sign of Ning Fengzhi.
