Fantasy: Empress Wife, Cute Kids Cause Havoc in Jiuzhou

In the blink of an eye, half a month had passed, and Chu Chen had advanced to the top ten in the Lanzhou City competition area with absolute superiority.

Having witnessed the endless abilities of Chu Chen, those who faced him would simply declare surrender, as no one wanted to be brutally beaten by a three-year-old toddler.

After the top ten were determined, a two-day challenge match was held.

Two of the top ten contenders were defeated and squeezed out, losing their qualifications to enter the Secret Realm.

The remaining nine, including Chu Xin, were challenged, but from beginning to end, not a single person dared to challenge Chu Chen.

That day, the top ten from each of the ten districts converged in Lanzhou City; these were the hundred Heavenly Prides who would enter the Secret Realm from Lanzhou.

They were almost the strongest Heavenly Prides of Lanzhou, the hope of the young generation in Lanzhou.

Next, they would compete over half a month to determine the top ten of the entire Lanzhou.

The final rankings would determine the distribution of maps: the closer to the top, the more complete the map, and naturally, the greater the advantage in the Secret Realm.

The venue for the Lanzhou top ten competition was not held in the previous competition arenas, as those spectator areas were somewhat small in comparison.

This was the most exciting event for the young generation of the entire Lanzhou, attracting the attention of all forces within Lanzhou.

Those who came to watch were not only cultivators but also more numerous and overall stronger than before.

The venue was switched to Lanzhou's Mimicry Arena.

The so-called Mimicry Arena was not a simple space; it was a false Secret Realm that simulated the environment of the actual Secret Realm.

The environment inside would randomly change, including extreme ice, flames, thunder, and so on.

The environment of the Secret Realm was more complex and changeable than that of the Mimic Space, meant to familiarize the young talents and teach them to adapt on the spot.

Additionally, in this Mimic Space, killing was not prohibited.

Because if you died in the space, you would revive on the outside and not actually die.

This was also to let the competitors better experience life-and-death battles.

Moreover, the spectator area of the Mimicry Arena was larger, able to accommodate a hundred thousand people.

"Wow! So many people!"

Upon arriving at the site, Chu Xin looked at the densely packed rows of spectators and let out a gasp of amazement.

She originally thought Big Stone Village was the whole world, not realizing how vast the outside world was until she left Big Stone Village, and not realizing how many people there were until the Lanzhou Championship. But today, she discovered that there were far more people outside than she had ever imagined.

Chu Chen also blinked his big eyes, staring blankly at the hundred thousand spectators, his small mouth agape, murmuring to himself, "So many people, if I were to barbecue, how much meat would I have to share with them?"

The female guard responsible for escorting the siblings to the preparation area was somewhat speechless at the little toddler's unique train of thought.

"Young master, young miss, please wait here for a while. The competition is about to start, don't run around," she said.

After leading them to the preparation area and giving them some instructions, the female guard turned and left.

Long Yufei suddenly appeared on the arena stage, her gaze falling on the hundred young talents in the preparation area, and she said indifferently, "The flow of time in the Mimic Space is different from the outside world, roughly one hour outside is equivalent to one month inside the Mimic Space. The purpose of establishing this Mimicry Arena is to let you get used to the Secret Realm in advance, so killing is not forbidden; you may use all means, except for prohibited items, to kill your opponents. After dying inside, you will be revived in the preparation area, which is equipped with an Array of Recovery, allowing you to return to your peak state in the shortest time. You are the strongest of the young generation in Lanzhou; display your strength to the fullest in the Mimicry Arena, and let this official see whether you truly deserve the title 'Heavenly Prides of Lanzhou'."

Aside from siblings Chu Xin and Chu Chen, the remaining ninety-eight contestants were boiling with enthusiasm upon hearing these words.

The State Governor was royalty from the Central State who had just arrived; they wanted to show the State Governor that the Heavenly Prides of Lanzhou were no less than those from any other state.

With a wave of her hand, Long Yufei caused a hundred tokens to appear out of thin air, shrouded in the power of fate such that no one could see the numbers inscribed on them, not even herself.

After the tokens were distributed, Long Yufei returned to her seat, and a female guard stepped onto the stage and announced loudly, "Please, the two participants holding token number one, come up to the arena."

"Number one? That's me, that's me."

Chu Chen glanced at his token, exclaiming happily.

Although his literacy wasn't particularly good, he could still recognize the simple numbers one through four.

With a leap, he landed on the arena stage, eagerly sizing up his opponent, his face full of anticipation as he asked, "Are you from Myriad Beasts Sect?"

His opponent was a teenager around eighteen or nineteen, standing with his hands behind his back, exuding the air of a master.

But upon hearing Chu Chen's words, a trace of astonishment crossed the teenager's face, and he shook his head, saying, "No, I am a disciple of Demon Saber Sect..."

"Not from Myriad Beasts Sect, eh? That's boring."

Upon hearing this, Chu Chen immediately drooped his head, losing interest.

The teenager was stunned.

What did that mean?

You look down on a disciple of Demon Saber Sect?

Only the disciples of Myriad Beasts Sect are worthy opponents?

Infinite rage began to swell in Fu Yunxiao's heart, his eyes coldly fixed on Chu Chen as he gritted his teeth and said, "I am a disciple of the Yin Demon Blade, the top Heavenly Pride of Demon Saber Sect, Fu Yunxiao, with a Peak Martial Venerate cultivation. How dare you belittle me."

"So you're the disciple of the Yin Demon Blade, the top Heavenly Pride of Demon Saber Sect, Fu Yunxiao."

"A Peak Martial Venerate, no less! Just one Small Heavenly Tribulation away from becoming a Martial Saint. He's only eighteen years old—such talent would surely be considered Heavenly Pride in Central State too."n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

"It's easier said than done, though. To trigger the Small Heavenly Tribulation, a Peak Martial Venerate needs to comprehend enough of the natural Dao. Surviving the Small Heavenly Tribulation leads to becoming a Martial Saint. Failure could at best ruin one's cultivation, leaving them crippled, or at worst, cause instant annihilation."

"His talent is decent, but he pales in comparison to the little milk baby. The little milk baby has defeated the Peak Martial Venerate Liu Tian who was under Demon Transformation."

"That doesn't count; that time, the little milk baby used a Bright Talisman to dispel Liu Tian's Demonic Qi, so it's not really a direct defeat of a Peak Martial Venerate."

"True, this battle should be very interesting."

The audience at the site was abuzz with chatter.

"Yin Demon Blade Saint? That name sounds familiar."

Chu Chen cocked his little head, furrowing his small brow, lost in thought.

"Brother, he's the disciple of that bad guy who insulted our daddy. Beat him up."

From the ready area, Chu Xin's childlike voice suddenly piped up.

"Ah!"

Upon hearing this, Chu Chen clapped his small hands and shouted, "I remember now, it's that bad demon who insulted my daddy."

The Yin Demon Blade Saint, a powerful Sword Cultivator in the middle stage of Martial Saint, insulted the little milk baby's daddy?

Why does it feel like there's a lot of information here, does the Yin Demon Blade Saint have a grudge against the little milk baby's family?

"It's Yin Demon Blade Saint, not indecent demon." Fu Yunxiao corrected.

"Hmph!"

Chu Chen scrunched his small nose, snorted, baring his teeth in a fierce but childlike manner, "All of you from Demon Saber Sect are bad. One is a bad guy who insulted my daddy, another is a bad guy who hired someone to kill me, and then there's the bad guy who gave out Devil Tempting Pills to others. Everyone in Demon Saber Sect is bad. Bad guy, today I'm going to spank you so hard that your butt blooms."

By the end, he was even waving his chubby fists to emphasize the threat.
