Of course, those who know about this are not limited to netizens who are fiercely discussing it online.

Like Ye Xingxue and his group, Caranci and his companions, who came to the Dibuken Empire to attend the celebration, also received the news around the same time.

In fact, Academician Katiefen of the Niflüs Empire Training Methods Institute and Academician Warwick of the Dubken Empire Training Methods Institute were probably among the first to learn about the progress of this matter.

After all, before the experts from the training method research institutes of the various empires officially responded to the netizens, the information revealed by some netizens alone was not enough to make the intelligence personnel behind Ye Xingxue and Kalansi report the information to them.

Academicians Katiefen and Warwick were the most influential figures in their Imperial Training Methods Research Institute.

After researchers at their Imperial Research Institute saw the situation online, relayed the information to them, and held a meeting to discuss it, the staff behind the scenes at their institute finally dared to give a reply to the people of their empire online.

After the interview, King Debuken will host a banquet at the palace to entertain Ling Luo and other guests, as well as nobles and important officials of their empire.

When Ling Luo and Ye Xingxue returned to the Dubken Palace after their interview, the people in the banquet hall who were already there all turned their gazes toward them, some openly, some subtly.

Many of them, like netizens online, felt that Ling Luo had returned to "ordinary" life.

Although this "ordinary" is much better than when she first appeared in the public eye.

When they first arrived in the Dibuken Empire yesterday, everyone was eager to meet Ling Luo and talk to her, so she and Ye Xingxue were always busy at that time.

Now they reappeared in the banquet hall of the Dibuken Empire Palace. Compared to yesterday, they could not be said to have been "coldly received," but most of the people who came to talk to them were now there for Ye Xingxue.

People's attitude towards Ling Luo is no longer as enthusiastic as before.

Of course, the king of the Dibuken Empire and his crown prince Rig are still as enthusiastic as ever towards Ling Luo, leaving no room for criticism.

It's unclear whether their enthusiasm stems from a lack of desire to fulfill their duties as hosts to their guests, or whether they are genuinely unaffected by what's happening online.

Caranci and the others treated Ling Luo the same as always.

Meanwhile, Katiefenstahl and Academician Warwick's attitude towards Ling Luo remained unchanged.

They were heading straight for Ling Luo.

Although the training method research institutes of various empires have made good progress in the research of ancient martial arts, Ling Luo has studied ancient martial arts for many more years than Katiefen and the others. She probably still has a lot of ancient martial arts knowledge that Katiefen and Academician Warwick want to know.

Therefore, the others were not surprised to see their attitude towards Ling Luo.

But when she saw them coming, Ye Xingxue's eyes turned cold without her noticing.

Regarding the training methods that various imperial research institutes have developed for them based on ancient martial arts, netizens only know the surface and do not understand the essence.

Only those within the research institute, such as Katiefen, knew that most of the useful inspirations for the training methods they developed, apart from understanding the core of ancient martial arts from knowledge related to the Five Elements, came from Ling Luo's more than twenty training methods.

Lingluo has more than twenty training methods, from which they can already learn a lot.

In other words, the ancient martial arts techniques they purchased from some ancient martial arts families at great expense have not been of much help to them so far.

At the same time, this also highlights one thing: Ling Luo's understanding of ancient martial arts is quite profound.

The reason this incident suddenly surfaced online today was because it was deliberately orchestrated by several training method research institutes of their respective empires.

It was by no means a coincidence.

Their aim was to make Ling Luo unable to withstand the public opinion offensive and lose her composure.

They guessed that Ling Luo still harbored resentment about not attending the seminars held by the various empires.

She probably knew that many people thought she did this because she was worried that others would learn from her and surpass her.

If she is truly worried that others will surpass her, then her absence will only increase her psychological burden.

Even if she didn't think that way, and her absence was the decision of the Lingliu Empire government, she was still too young to withstand such psychological pressure. Hearing so many people making such speculations about her must have made her feel uncomfortable.

If she were to actually believe what netizens were saying—that "experts from other imperial training method research institutes will soon develop better training methods than hers"—she would be under even greater psychological pressure.

She was worried that if this came true, netizens would mock her, saying, "Even without her help, didn't the people at the various imperial research institutes develop such powerful training methods so quickly?"

Ling Luo is so young and has been elevated to a pedestal. How can she bear such ridicule?

In this situation, they only need to deliberately guide him to make Ling Luo, in order to save his reputation, disregard the advice of Ye Xingxue and others and reveal all the ancient martial arts knowledge he has learned.

Of course, there is still a long way to go in the future. Katiefen and the others believe that even if they don't succeed with Ling Luo, they can still develop a better training method than Ling Luo's.

But it will probably take a lot more effort and time.

Starting with Ling Luo is the quickest way for them right now.

Even if Ling Luo didn't reveal more knowledge about ancient martial arts to them as they expected, planning this wouldn't have resulted in any loss for them.

Everyone here is a smart person. When Katie and Warwick walked over and saw Ye Xingxue's smile, they suddenly realized that Ye Xingxue had figured out that they were the ones who had planned this.

As online public opinion intensified, they were all participating in the celebration ceremony of the Dubken Empire.

Even if someone knew about this and notified Ye Xingxue, Ye Xingxue wouldn't have much time to react.

His ability to see through this in such a short time is truly remarkable; the current Crown Prince of the Lingliu Empire is indeed extraordinary.

However, Ye Xingxue saw through it all, and Katiefen and the others didn't care.

Even if he sees through it, so what? Ling Luo is young and impatient; she's easily swayed.

They still have a chance to achieve their goal.
