Chapter 849: Chapter 22: Yin Turning Small Rain! The Battle at the Peak of the Great Heavenly Proud (Seeking Monthly Tickets)_2 Chapter 849: Chapter 22: Yin Turning Small Rain! The Battle at the Peak of the Great Heavenly Proud (Seeking Monthly Tickets)_2 In another private room, a man who looked like a middle-aged man, also exuding a royal deanor, persuaded, “Old Ancestor Dexin, please don’t be angry. We are here today to cheer on young Zhixing.”
This dignified middle-aged man was also one of the Imperial Household’s princes, nad Prince Yong’an. He and Prince Dexin descended from the sa line, a line that had been passed down from the eldest legitimate sons of the emperors.
The line of Prince Dexin was the most powerful among the many bloodline descendants of the royal family, boasting two princes and eighteen commandery princes within their sa lineage! Moreover, among the younger generation, there were outstanding individuals like Kang Commandery Prince and the Little Princess Xue Ning.
Wu Zhixing was not originally born into this line but was adopted by the prince of Fu Commandery in this line. As a result, there were now three Great Heavenly Prouds within this younger generation.
As a father, the Fu Commandery Prince naturally also ca to cheer on his “foster son.”
However, with two princes of his own line present, he, a re youngster of just over three hundred years old, naturally had no say in the matter. In fact, he didn’t even have a seat and could only stand respectfully with his hands down, adopting a deanor of concentration.
He couldn’t intervene in the elders’ quarrel and had to listen obediently.
“Zhixing’s sword, nad ‘Thousand Autumn,’ might be renowned as a chatterbox and sharp-tongued among the various Divine Spiritual Treasures, but it does have strength,” Prince Dexin said, giving up on arguing with the Enlightened One Tianhe and spoke to Prince Yong’an, “Furthermore, the boy is young but remarkably composed and steady. Yong’an, do take care of him more and cultivate him properly.”
“Yes, Old Ancestor,” Prince Yong’an replied with a smile, “The child has the patience for cultivation and has already reached the Heavenly Human Realm Level Five Cultivation base. With a bit more effort, he might break through to the advanced stage of the Heavenly Human Realm before he turns a hundred.” His eyes showed a trace of satisfaction, obviously pleased with Wu Zhixing.
“Very good, very good, you were much more diligent than you were at his age,” Prince Dexin said with great gratification, “Once he grows up, he will be the best support for Cheng Si, and he can also help Cheng Si stabilize his position as emperor.”
Wu Chengsi was one of the current Quasi Emperor’s Sons.
In the eyes of the royal mbers of Dexin’s lineage, Kang Commandery Prince Wu Chengsi was almost certain to be the next Emperor’s Son. Once he ascended to the throne in the future, Dexin’s line was bound to gain even greater influence.
They believed that the emperor’s decision to have Wu Zhixing adopted into the na of the Fu Commandery Prince of the Dexin lineage was to prepare a strong assistant for the future emperor.
However, as soon as Dexin ntioned this, Tianhe was again not pleased. He mocked, “Dexin, the struggle for the title of Emperor’s Son isn’t over yet, and you’re so certain that Kang Commandery Prince will win?”
“Tianhe, don’t tell you think that little Wu Mingyuan can contend with Cheng Si for the title of Emperor’s Son?” Prince Dexin couldn’t help but retaliate, “Hmph, he only enjoys the status of a Quasi Emperor’s Son because His Majesty doesn’t want to violate the forr emperor’s dying wishes. Whether in terms of virtue or capability, Wu Mingyuan can’t hold a candle to Cheng Si, he’s dood to rely play second fiddle.”
Since the Kang Commandery Prince was a descendant of Prince Dexin’s lineage, both he and Prince Yong’an were the Kang Commandery Prince’s most staunch supporters.
“Oh~ Since when do you, Dexin, have the power to perceive the secrets of heaven? Why don’t you help this Academy Head predict who will win in this battle, my Li Yao or your Zhixing?” the Enlightened One Tianhe continued with his biting remarks,
It was quite clear that he had a big unresolved feud with Prince Dexin from their younger days that hadn’t been forgotten, even after so many years.
However, as two of the older generation in the Divine Power Territory, aside from a few of their peers, along with Emperor Longchang and the master of the Sacred Land, probably no one knew what the grudge was about.
In the next private room, the Heng Commandery Prince put his ears up, eavesdropping.
To him, any one of those four Magic Realm big shots was an existence he could not afford to offend. If he wished to know these peculiar gossips, eavesdropping was his only option.
“Tianhe, you don’t actually believe your Li Yao can win, do you?” Prince Dexin was caught off guard and appeared dubious, “If Zhixing lacked Thousand Autumn, he would be at a disadvantage in this fight. But now that both have Divine Spiritual Treasures, and my Zhixing even has a slight advantage in age, where does your disciple stand a chance?”
“Fine, let’s make a bet,” the Enlightened One Tianhe suddenly grew excited, “Let’s each bet on our own children winning. Hmm… let’s not bet too much, just twenty Top Grade Spirit Stones.”
Twenty Top Grade Spirit Stones? Not bet too much?
Upon hearing this, the Heng Commandery Prince in the next room turned green with envy.
These Magic Realm big shots indeed had money to burn. You see, ordinary Spirit Stones were worth about a hundred Qian Gold, but Middle Grade Spirit Stones were extrely rare and typically increased by a hundredfold in value, reaching tens of thousands of Qian Gold.
So powerful formations could no longer be driven by ordinary Spirit Stones. Thus, despite their high cost, Middle Grade Spirit Stones still had a significant market. For example, the Defensive Array set up by the Array Master on the stage was powered by ten Middle Grade Spirit Stones.
As for Top Grade Spirit Stones, they were extrely rare throughout the Great Qian Land, a necessity for top-tier Mountain Protection Arrays established by major Prominent Families, Academic Palaces, Governnt Offices, and imperial mansions.
If converted to Qian Gold, they could be worth millions of Qian Gold each. In the Great Qian Land, these items were almost considered strategic materials, seldom circulating outside.
