The radiance in Shangguan Xian’s hand was even more dazzling than the previous person’s.

It was like a small sun.

The brilliant glow illuminated the entire surroundings of the Penglai Pavilion.

"My eyes,” someone quickly closed their eyes.

"This young lady is quite impressive, being able to enter our Penglai Pavilion at will,” the attendant said with a smile.

His attitude towards Shangguan Xian was clearly much gentler.

"What’s going on here?” someone asked.

"Do you think just lighting up this White Jade Stone is enough?

Lighting it is only the first step,” the attendant explained.

"The greater the radiance of this White Jade Stone, the better the person’s aptitude.”

"So that’s how it is,” someone nodded in realization.

Some unfortunate ones realized that not to mention testing their aptitude, even lighting up the White Jade Stone was as difficult as reaching the sky.

Next, more and more people tried to light up the White Jade Stone.

Meanwhile, Shangguan Xian walked up to Xu Zimei.

"How was it?” Xu Zimei asked.

"There is a power inside, it seems to be able to test my body.

But it has no malice,” Shangguan Xian said.

"It seems this White Jade Stone is just a tool to test aptitude,” Xu Zimei nodded.

"How should I address this young lady?” someone beside them tried to get acquainted with Shangguan Xian.

Shangguan Xian smiled faintly, ignoring the others.

"May I get to know you, miss? I am the young master of the Zhu Family.

My family has some influence in Shenghai City,” that person persistently continued.

"Alright, stop forcing the conversation,” Xu Zimei waved his hand.

Impatiently said, “It only makes people more annoyed.”

"Who are you?” the person snorted coldly.

"I’m talking to this lady, what’s it to you?”

Just as he finished speaking, he felt as if he had suffered a severe blow.

His entire figure was sent flying backwards.

He probably didn’t even expect that Xu Zimei would kill someone over a disagreement.

After being sent flying, he was gravely injured on the ground, unable to move.

This scene stunned everyone present.

When Xu Zimei stepped forward to touch the White Jade Stone, no one dared to compete with him, and some even made way for him.

When he placed his hand on the White Jade Stone, everyone was on tiptoe with anticipation.

Some relished in anticipation of a spectacle.

Others were merely curious.

As his hand fell, the White Jade Stone first showed a brief silence.

"I thought he was strong, turns out he is just like me, a talentless wretch,” someone’s vanity was instantly satisfied.

But in the next moment, it was as if the White Jade Stone hadn’t realized what had happened.

It needed a moment to react.

Then the White Jade Stone erupted with a light so intense it was blinding.

The brilliance was more dazzling than the sun in the sky.

Xu Zimei chuckled softly.

The surface of the White Jade Stone began to show cracks.

The cracks continued to expand, eventually forming irreparable wounds.

With a crackling sound.

The White Jade Stone shattered into pieces.

This scene left everyone present utterly shocked.

"How could this happen?” someone asked, utterly perplexed.

Others looked on in terror, as if they had discovered something unbelievable.

Even the attendant at the door changed his demeanor, looking at Xu Zimei.

Swallowing a gulp, he laughed, “Honored guest, you can freely enter and exit the sixteenth floor of our Penglai Pavilion.

You can make any request you desire.”

"Your White Jade Stone doesn’t seem too reliable,” Xu Zimei shook his head and said.

"In the eyes of an esteemed guest, it’s naturally nothing,” the attendant quickly laughed.

"Let’s go inside and have a look,” Xu Zimei waved his hand, and he and Shangguan Xian walked inside.

Upon entering the Penglai Pavilion, one could feel what is meant by the Immortal Realm.

The space was vast and imposing.

Sixteen layers, each different from the other.

In the first layer, there was a lake, surrounded by pavilions built around it.

Standing in the pavilion, it was like eternal spring, with pleasant weather, truly enjoyable.

As they ascended, some areas were spaces built specifically for the Fire Tribe.

Because the Fire Tribe favored the heat.

Xu Zimei made his way to the peak of the sixteenth floor.

This was also the apex of Penglai Pavilion, a mountaintop.

Standing atop, one could overlook the entirety of Shenghai City.

Both high and low.

Even the full view of the Combat Stage was clear, seemingly in front of the eyes.

This was using the technology of space folding.

It could bring scenes miles away right before the eyes, rather than being a transmitted projection.

……

"This Penglai Pavilion is quite interesting,” Xu Zimei said with a smile.

He found a seat.

There were many seats, surely prepared for spectators.

In a small place like Shenghai City, having such a spectacle was indeed not bad.

"I heard that this Penglai Pavilion is not only here in Shenghai City,” Shangguan Xian said with a smile.

"There are branches of this Penglai Pavilion throughout the Seven Domains of the Blazing Flame Realm.

Where we are now should also be a branch.”

"You are quite well-informed,” Xu Zimei chuckled.

"When we entered, there was a wall detailing the entire history of Penglai Pavilion,” Shangguan Xian said with a smile.

"Even if I didn’t want to know, I saw it all.”

"Looks like the Dragon City Lord hasn’t arrived yet, let’s rest for a while,” Xu Zimei said.

The two sat on the seats.

Below, the martial contest for marriage was in full swing.

Someone had already started competing on the stage.

Xu Zimei had a god’s eye view, enjoying a unique perspective.

The Myriad of Living Beings indeed.

Everyone’s sizes and their contentment points differ.

Some envy him as a Great Saint.

But at his level, standing high, seeing far. subtex./subtex

Realizing the pleasure in being as small as dust grains is not bad either.

However, for many things, he could no longer afford to step back.

Xu Zimei shook his head with a smile.

Just then, Shangguan Xian pulled on his sleeve.

Signaling that someone had arrived.

Xu Zimei looked up and saw a group of formidable people led by the attendant of Penglai Pavilion approaching slowly.

Their aura was evidently different.

Especially the person in the center, who walked with dignity and authority.

People around showed him a great deal of respect, subtly centering on him.

"Is that the Dragon City Lord?” Xu Zimei asked.

"It looks like it,” Shangguan Xian nodded.

"Do you want to go over and say hello?”

"No need, I want to wait for him to greet me,” Xu Zimei said with a smile.

"They don’t even know you, why would they greet you first?” Shangguan Xian laughed.

"Let’s wait,” Xu Zimei looked at the group.

Then asked, “Where is the Sage Zixia you mentioned?

Why haven’t I seen them.”

"Probably at the back, this martial contest for marriage likely doesn’t interest someone of that level,” Shangguan Xian explained.

The Dragon City Lord took his seat with the group not far away.

They were discussing something, and Xu Zimei didn’t disturb.
