The overall shape of the competition field was circular. Besides the competition stage, the circle was divided into four parts, representing the four empires.
The Tianhuang Kingdom was positioned on the side of the Tianqi Empire, situated on the fifth level.
Huang Quan observed the names and deciphered the tiered arrangement.
The first level, the forefront, was reserved for the extremely noble. Given that the competition was in the Tianqi Empire, not all nobles from other empires attended. The first level was not exclusive to people from the Tianqi Empire but designated for those of noble status and strength.
The second level differed, reserved specifically for the teachers of the Imperial Academy.
The third level was the seating area for participating students from Imperial College.
The fourth level accommodated teachers from small country colleges within the Tianqi Empire.
From the fifth to the tenth level, seats were assigned to participating students from small countries affiliated with the Tianqi Empire.
Beyond the tenth level, the seats belonged to the imperial student audience stage, allowing casual seating.
This arrangement applied not only to the representatives of the Tianqi Empire but also to the opposing party.
Huang Quan and Nangong Mian were situated just behind the dean and Ming Chao, ahead of the other students and teachers.
As the game approached, more students took their seats.
The students from the small countries lacked grandeur, and the seats filled rapidly.
The back seats were occupied, leaving the vacant front seats conspicuous. It was only fifteen minutes before the start of the game that students from Imperial College arrived.
The first group, clad in white robes with blue stripes, exuded a chilly aura, as if they brought their own cold with them. Upon their entrance, the surrounding temperature dropped several degrees.
At the forefront of the group was a child…
Despite appearances, the child seemed delicate and adorable, with pure white hair, an indifferent expression, and a white robe adorned with blue stripes. An elf emerging from ice and snow, exuding an aura of extreme cuteness.
Certainly, Huang Quan was the sole individual with such thoughts.
The demeanor of others grew intensely serious the moment they laid eyes on the child.
Evidently, they all recognized the child’s identity.
The dean informed, “Girl, that child is the young master of Jingxue Palace.”
“I can see that,” Huang Quan observed the child. Her dark pupils reflected the white mist enveloping the child, and she curled her lips into a smile.
No wonder he is only 5 or 6 years old at sixteen. It turns out he truly possesses a special bloodline…
After the students from the Xuanling Empire settled, another student made an entrance.
Clad in white with red stripes, this newcomer exuded an air of arrogance and recklessness. The temperature, which had just dropped, instantly rose upon their arrival, even surpassing the previous level.
“Students from the Nanyuan Empire,” the dean disclosed. “Several of them cultivate fire spiritual roots and intentionally release their spiritual power, causing the temperature to rise.” Nangong Mian, upon hearing this, remarked, “Then, when the students from the Xuanling Empire entered, the temperature dropped just now. Did they do it on purpose?”
The dean twitched the corner of his mouth and clarified, “Not quite. The reason for the temperature drop when they entered was due to that young master.”
Hearing this, Nangong Mian glanced at the young master again, eyes filled with envy.
That’s a genuine genius!
Perhaps due to the intense envy in Nangong Mian’s gaze, the young master sitting across from them suddenly raised his eyes and looked over.
Nangong Mian didn’t anticipate his sharp perception. Unable to avert his gaze in time, he could only maintain eye contact.
Jing Chen cast him an indifferent glance, and in the next moment, his eyes shifted to Huang Quan’s face.
