"I'm not participating!"

Yin Yutong shook her head: "I'm only at the fifth level of the Golden Core stage. There are quite a few at the sixth level of the Golden Core stage here. I don't have a chance. On the contrary, there aren't many people at the first to third level of the Golden Core stage. You have a better chance!"

"Okay, I'll participate!"

This Saintess Xiahou is quite wealthy; we need to make a deep impression on her so we can do business with her in the future!

A series of statistics.

Only a little over a hundred people signed up.

The rewards may be tempting, but if you know you have no chance, there's no need to participate.

As expected, there were indeed not many people at the first to third level of the Golden Core stage, only 13 in total, among whom Gao Yan had the lowest cultivation level.

The other twelve people, except for two who were at the second level of the Golden Core stage, were all at the third level of the Golden Core stage!

After determining the number of participants.

Everyone moved outside the palace.

Furthermore, Xiahou Meng had already ordered people to set up the formation in advance; otherwise, the aftershocks of a battle between Golden Core cultivators would have been enough to turn the Holy Maiden Palace into ruins.

"Fuyou, who is that person? He's only at the first level of the Golden Core stage, yet he dares to participate in a battle?"

Xiahou Meng glanced at Gao Yan, then looked at his trusted maid.

"His name is Gao Yan. He's Elder Xiao Lingyue's new disciple. I heard he has excellent talent and aptitude. When he was undergoing the Golden Core Tribulation, he attracted a hundred acres of heavenly tribulation!"

"oh!"

Xiahou Meng didn't take this to heart.

Just then.

Fuyou continued, "I heard that Saintess Nangong even specially sent her trusted maid Qingluo to deliver a congratulatory gift to him!"

Upon hearing this, Xiahou Meng immediately became interested.

Do you know why?

"I guess it's because of Elder Xiao Lingyue!" Fuyou guessed.

"When Elder Xiao accepted other disciples, did she send them congratulatory gifts?" Xiahou Meng asked thoughtfully.

"It seems not!"

"It seems that Nangong Yao has a different opinion of Gao Yan!"

Xiahou Meng chuckled, a hint of interest piqued in her eyes: "Send someone to investigate Gao Yan thoroughly, and see if he has any extraordinary abilities!"
