Chapter 101 The Incompetent Crown Prince
"No!" The Southern Dynasty contestant let out a desperate roar.
He stared in horror as the profound energy rushed toward him, powerless to resist.
The moment he was struck by the Xuan Qi, he flew backward like a kite with a broken string, crashing heavily to the ground. He spat out a mouthful of blood, and his face instantly turned as pale as paper.
The scene fell silent. Everyone was stunned by the amazing sight, their eyes wide with disbelief.
The Southern Dynasty crown prince stared wide-eyed, unable to believe what was happening before his eyes.
His meticulously planned scheme, which he believed would allow the Southern Dynasty contestant to win through banned substances, was unexpectedly defeated so easily by Seonhee.
He didn't even manage to touch the hem of Sun-hee's clothes.
How can this woman be so strong?
Crown Prince Junchao was completely dumbfounded, his whole body like a petrified sculpture, speechless with astonishment.
Is this still the Shanxi he knows?
How could she be so strong?
"We won! Our Jun Dynasty has won!"
"Oh yeah! Long live! Long live! Long live the good family! Long live the dynasty!"
The crowd spontaneously cheered excitedly, their cheers echoing like a tidal wave across the scene.
Looking at the lively and jubilant scene before him, the Crown Prince of the Southern Dynasty slumped back into his chair in disbelief, muttering to himself, "I lost? I actually lost? No! Impossible!"
His opponent was a veteran general of the Southern Dynasty with outstanding strength. How could he be defeated so easily?
The Southern Dynasty Crown Prince's eyes widened in fury. He suddenly stood up, intending to report Lady Shanxi, suspecting that she had used improper means.
However, Xuanmingzi simply flicked his sleeve, and a powerful force pressed him back into his seat.
Even he was no match for Shanxi, so this Crown Prince of the Southern Dynasty must be crazy to actually want to provoke her!
Meeting the Southern Dynasty Crown Prince's eyes, which were filled with resentment, Shanxi calmly smiled and said in a cold tone, "Let's just treat him the same way he treats us."
Want to win by dishonest means?
Ha, does she really have no one in her dynasty?
As soon as Shanxi returned to her seat, Grandpa Shan immediately greeted her with a beaming smile, offering her tea and water, massaging her shoulders and back, and praising her repeatedly: "Grandma, you've worked so hard! Grandma, you're so cool! Grandma, you're so awesome!"
As expected, you could tell how good Grandma was as soon as she made a move!
Look at those useless people from the Southern Dynasty, they can't even touch a single finger of the Grandmother.
Shan Mingyuan, sitting several tables away, had an inscrutable expression. He never expected that Shanxi would actually go up and win!
For a moment, he didn't know whether he should be happy or disappointed.
His daughter, Shan Yurou, whom he had always admired, failed in the competition and was ridiculed by others.
On the other hand, since that night, Sunhee seemed like a completely different person, a reincarnation, and she even won the game, which was simply... beyond his imagination!
But no matter what, it's good that he won. If he wins, his Yu Rou's responsibility won't be so great.
This victory brought smiles to the faces of everyone in the Jun Dynasty.
While pleased, the emperor of the Southern Dynasty did not forget to reassure the crown prince of the Southern Dynasty: "With three wins and two losses, the two sides are evenly matched. This shows that the strength of the Southern Dynasty should not be underestimated."
The emperor's words were a great gesture of respect to the Southern Dynasty.
The Southern Dynasty's crown prince knew he had lost and had no way to argue, so he could only smile bitterly and say, "Your Dynasty is still superior. My Southern Dynasty still has a lot to learn from you."
After exchanging pleasantries, the two men withdrew to change their clothes for the evening banquet.
Although the Southern Dynasty Crown Prince was filled with resentment, fortunately, two of his disciples were able to go to Xuanzong and become his disciples, which was a stroke of luck amidst misfortune.
However, he just couldn't understand how Shanxi, with her strength, could defeat his biggest trump card.
It should be noted that not only was that person extremely powerful, but he had also taken forbidden drugs, causing his strength and cultivation to advance by leaps and bounds. Not to mention Shanxi, even the great general of the Jun Dynasty might not be able to defeat him.
But he was completely powerless against Sun Hee!
Can an eighteen-year-old girl really possess such terrifying strength?
At the banquet, toasts were exchanged and songs and dances were performed.
Because the court had won a great victory in this competition, the ministers of the court were all overjoyed, and the singers and dancers were also jumping for joy.
Their faces beamed with radiant smiles, and their laughter echoed like silver bells throughout the hall, intensifying the festive atmosphere.
On the other hand, the Crown Prince of the Southern Dynasty, though outwardly chatting happily with everyone and displaying great poise in his words, could be seen by all to be very resentful inside.
The emperor of the Southern Dynasty, emboldened by the wine, brought up the competition again, his words filled with pride and "consolation" for the Southern Dynasty: "In this competition, both sides have demonstrated extraordinary strength. It is truly our fortune that the Southern Dynasty has such a master. In the future, exchanges between the two dynasties will surely lead to mutual progress."
The Southern Dynasty Crown Prince forced a smile and echoed, "Your Dynasty is full of talented people, and Miss Shanxi is especially outstanding. Our Southern Dynasty still needs to work harder."
When the name of Sunhee was mentioned, the emperor of the Jun Dynasty looked at her meaningfully, his eyes full of scrutiny and inquiry.
If his father hadn't mentioned it, he would never have let Shanxi ascend the throne, even if it meant his death!
Unexpectedly, Sunhee actually helped him win!
To his surprise, Shanxi refused the opportunity to go to Xuanzong to cultivate without even thinking!
Does she even know who she's rejecting?
That's the Xuanzong Sect!
The Southern Dynasty Crown Prince keenly noticed the meaningful look in the eyes of the Emperor of the Jun Dynasty when he looked at Shanxi, and a sense of curiosity welled up in his heart.
He narrowed his eyes, a slight smile playing on his lips, and asked with a hint of teasing, "What is the relationship between Miss Shanxi and Emperor Xuanzong? They seem like old acquaintances."
Upon hearing this, Emperor Junchao shook his head with a puzzled expression and said, "I don't know either. I only have a vague understanding of Shanxi's background."
"To tell you the truth, this Shanxi is the real daughter of the Shan family, whom they only found two months ago..." The Emperor of the Jun Dynasty seemed to have suddenly opened a floodgate of words, and like a gossipy woman, he enthusiastically chatted with the Crown Prince of the Southern Dynasty about Shanxi's background.
Once the two started gossiping, they instantly became very friendly, like brothers who had been close for over a decade. They unconsciously leaned closer together, their heads getting closer and closer, completely oblivious to the stares of those around them.
Upon learning that Shanxi had been deliberately abandoned in the countryside and only found this year, a look of surprise flashed in the eyes of the Southern Dynasty's Crown Prince.
When the Crown Prince of the Southern Dynasty learned that he had blinded himself and rejected Shan Xi in order to marry Shan Yu Rou, the resentment in the Crown Prince's heart suddenly dissipated by more than half.
It turns out that the Crown Prince of the Jun Dynasty was a blind and incompetent fool.
Oh……
From this perspective, it's not such a bad thing that the Southern Dynasty lost today. Once this incompetent crown prince ascends the throne, the Southern Dynasty will have plenty of opportunities to turn things around!
