Li Hao was puzzled, "Then why pete for it?"
"Because it’s beautiful."
Su Wanqing softly explained, "It’s beautiful, rare, and difficult to obtain. That’s why everyone fights for it. Initially, it was just a token for family exchanges, but gradually it evolved into a symbol of prestige and excellence. If it were just Divine Medicine and Lingzhi, such mon items, we wouldn’t be here peting. A single mand from our family would suffice to prepare some."
Hearing this, Li Hao suddenly understood that it was something marketed to embody ’prestige and excellence’, which made people fight for it.
"Moreover, this Immortal Osmanthus only lasts for ten years before wilting. With such rarity, who wouldn’t love it?"
Su Wanqing said.
Li Hao nodded.
At this point, as Immortal King Tan announced the rules, he raised his hand to set up a battle stage in front of the sword pool, and laid down a Sealing Array Barrier.
Afterward, he allowed each family to freely go up the stage to challenge and showcase themselves.
This was not only a petition among the elites but also a spectacle like a leisure gathering, with many immortal attendants weaving through, bringing Immortal Fruit and nectar, adding a touch of leisure.
The Su, Jiang, and Lin families did not act; on the battle stage, the elites of other families went up one after another to lay down challenges and engage in Immortal Techniques.
The three major families, along with other slightly lesser families, chose to observe first, calm and unhurried, not rushing to perform, giving opportunities for other families to showcase themselves.
Being part of a prestigious family naturally es with grandeur.
"Lin Jinrou, why isn’t that brother of yours here?"
Jiang Huanhuan, sitting to the right of the Su Family, inquired of Lin Jinrou seated to the left of the Su Family.
Lin Jinrou took a sip of the nectar and calmly said, "If my brother were here, would there be any need for others to pete at this Sword Pool Festival? I’m afraid all eyes would be on him."
Jiang Huanhuan pouted slightly but had to admit that if the True Dragon of the Lin Family arrived, the scene would surely bee explosive, with everyone gathering around.
Having overheard their conversation, Su Wanqing glanced at Li Hao, seeing that he was oblivious, she felt relieved yet inwardly sighed.
Time passed slowly, with Immortal Fruit continuously presented. Li Hao quietly tasted them while those around him whispered among themselves. He occasionally asked Su Wanqing about certain matters, otherwise, he spent his time sipping and drinking, his gaze often resting on Su Muqing beside him, involuntarily recalling their past encounters in his mind.
In that small remote town in the Mortal World, at that tea stall...
After a while, a burst of enthusiastic applause broke Li Hao’s thoughts.
"Amazing, Bai Mocheng of the Bai Family has progressed so much, with thirteen battles and ten wins at the Third Level of Immortal Monarch Realm, it’s too strong!"
"Another of the fourteen Divine Osmanthus flowers is gone."
"It seems that aside from those Four Little Phoenixes, Bai Mocheng is poised to follow closely behind, stepping into the ranks of top elite talents."
The crowd buzzed with discussion.
On the battle stage, a youth with an elegant stance sheathed his sword and walked down the stage, returning to his family, sitting beside a sweet-smiling girl.
The girl quickly inquired about his injuries, her eyes filled with concern, yet the youth merely smiled indifferently and said, "As long as you like it, when I pick it, I want everyone to know that what others have, my sister will also have!"
The girl’s eyes were filled with emotion.
Li Hao understood that many of the men here were not only peting against their patriots but also for their sisters or admired ones to win the prizes.
"The Bai Family has also begun to gradually show their potential over the years."
Su Wanxue glanced over calmly and said.
Su Wanqing nodded, then turned her gaze towards Li Hao beside her, "Haotian, why don’t you go up and try? With your strength, the chance of achieving ten victories is still significant, and you could pick a Divine Osmanthus!"
Hearing her words, Su Qiyu and the others couldn’t help but glance at Li Hao, surprise in their eyes.
