half a month later.

The Starship finally traversed the endless sea of ​​stars and arrived at the center of the celestial realm—the Central Star Region.

A colossal city, whose magnificence defies description, silently floats in the center of the star field.

It is like an ancient behemoth lurking in the universe, enormous, ancient, and exuding a majestic aura that suppresses all ages.

The city walls were forged from an unknown celestial iron, and were engraved with countless ancient Daoist patterns, shimmering with an immortal divine light.

Within the city, celestial mountains floated in the air, divine light soared into the sky, and auspicious beasts galloped about, presenting a scene of great prosperity and flourishing.

This is Baidi City.

The venue for the Myriad Realms Prodigy Ranking is also the most prosperous and central city in the entire Heavenly Realm.

The airship slowly landed in the designated area outside the city.

As soon as Chu Feng and his group stepped off the flying boat, they felt powerful auras emanating from all directions.

On the street, the cultivators coming and going all had a cultivation level of at least Venerable Lord.

Powerful individuals at the Heavenly Venerable Realm or above are commonplace.

Occasionally, one could even sense the aura of one or two Great Saint Realm experts, which would flash by in an instant.

"Wow, this place is truly a hidden gem," Old Hei muttered to himself, following Chu Feng's footsteps.

"Let's go, let's find a place to stay first."

Chu Feng, hands in his pockets, looked calm and composed as he led the group toward the most bustling area of ​​the city.

Soon, they arrived at a building called "Ascending to Heaven".

This building, ninety-nine stories high, is entirely constructed of some rare white jade. With its carved beams and painted rafters, and shrouded in an ethereal atmosphere, it is clearly not a place that ordinary people can afford.

"This is it."

Chu Feng led the group inside.

The hall was bustling with people, a lively and extraordinary scene.

A middle-aged man dressed in brocade robes, who looked like a manager, saw Chu Feng and his group, especially the several beautiful women behind him, and his eyes lit up. He quickly came forward to greet them.

"Gentlemen, are you here for a meal or to stay the night?"

"I need a room," Chu Feng said calmly. "Give me the best courtyard in your place."

Upon hearing this, the manager's smile widened, but then a hint of embarrassment appeared on his face.

"Sir, it's unfortunate. All the best 'Heaven' suites at our Ascend to Heaven Pavilion are already booked. We only have a few 'Earth' suites left."

Just then, a voice filled with arrogance and frivolity came from not far away.

"Oh, isn't this Steward Wang from Dengtian Tower? Is my courtyard ready?"

Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw a young man dressed in a magnificent purple robe, with a handsome face but a sinister look in his eyes, swaggering over surrounded by a group of guards.

When Manager Wang saw the visitor, his face immediately lit up with a fawning smile, and he bowed and said, "So it's Young Master Li. Your No. 1 courtyard has been prepared for you long ago, and you can move in at any time."

The young man, referred to as Young Master Li, nodded in satisfaction.

When his gaze swept over Chu Qingge, Zhuge Yue, and the others behind Chu Feng, his eyes instantly flashed with undisguised amazement and greed.

"Tsk tsk, this is truly top-notch."

He ignored Chu Feng and walked straight up to Zhuge Yue, tossing his hair in what he thought was a cool gesture.

"My name is Li Tianyang of the Changsheng Li family. May I ask your name? Would you be interested in having a drink with me?"

The Li family of longevity, like the Qi family of longevity, is one of the seven great families of longevity in the Heavenly Realm, and is even superior to the Qi family!

Li Tianyang felt that once he revealed his family background, the woman in front of him would definitely look at him differently.

However, Zhuge Yue merely glanced at him indifferently before looking away, as if he were nothing more than air.

Li Tianyang's face immediately fell.

One of his guards immediately stepped forward and coldly shouted at Zhuge Yue, "How dare you! My young master is speaking to you, and this is how you treat him?!"

Chu Feng's brows furrowed slightly.

Before he could speak, Old Black next to him suddenly yawned.

“Ah…”

With this yawn, a small, inconspicuous wisp of golden flame floated out of its mouth and landed right on the shouting guard.

"ah!!!"

A piercing scream echoed throughout the hall.

The guard's body was instantly ignited by golden flames, and in the short span of a breath, he was burned to ashes, his soul unable to escape.

The entire hall fell into a deathly silence in an instant.

All eyes were drawn in horror to the seemingly harmless mongrel dog.

The smile on Li Tianyang's face froze completely.

The guards behind him were so frightened that they retreated repeatedly, their faces filled with terror.

Although they couldn't tell what kind of flame it was, the fact that it could instantly kill a cultivator at the ninth level of the Venerable Lord Realm meant that this dog was definitely a terrifying existence!

"You...you all..." Li Tianyang pointed at Chu Feng, his lips trembling, unable to utter a single word.

Chu Feng didn't even glance at him, but simply tossed a heavy storage bag in front of Steward Wang.

"Do you have a 'Heavenly' grade courtyard now?"

Manager Wang was so frightened that he almost jumped out of his skin and nodded frantically.

"Yes, yes, yes! The No. 1 courtyard is yours!"

He wouldn't dare say a single word against it now.

This man dared to burn even members of the Changsheng Li family alive in public, so what is a mere steward like him?

"You're smart to know what's good for you."

Chu Feng ignored the terrified Li Tianyang and led the group towards the backyard, personally guided by Steward Wang.

Li Tianyang only came to his senses after Chu Feng and the others had completely disappeared from sight.

His face was filled with resentment and humiliation.

"Investigate! I must find out who that kid is! How dare he mess with me, Li Tianyang! I'll make sure he never leaves Baidi City!"

……

Courtyard No. 1, a world unto itself.

The pavilions, terraces, artificial hills, and flowing water are so rich in spiritual energy that they almost seem to materialize.

Chu Feng gathered everyone together.

"The Prodigy Ranking will open in three days. In the next few days, everyone should familiarize themselves with the environment."

"Eldest sister, Yue'er, Wanyin, Xuanfei, the four of you will also participate this time."

"Huh?" Lin Wanyin and Shi Xuanfei were both stunned.

"This is both a trial and an opportunity." Chu Feng's gaze swept over the four women. "I don't need you to get a good ranking. I just want you to survive the battle."

"Yes!" the four women replied in unison.

"Shi Xuanfei." Chu Feng looked at her.

"Master, what are your orders?" Shi Xuanfei immediately gave him a flirtatious wink.

"Go and get me information on all the noteworthy opponents in this year's Prodigy Ranking."

"Yes, my master." Shi Xuanfei accepted the order, swaying her lithe waist as she left the courtyard.

Just then, there was a knock on the door outside the courtyard.

A servant dressed in the standard robes of Baidi City stood respectfully outside the door.

"Excuse me, is Young Master Chu Feng here?"

Chu Feng raised an eyebrow and walked out.

Upon seeing Chu Feng, the waiter immediately bowed and presented him with a dazzling golden invitation.

"Young Master Chu, my city lord is hosting a welcome banquet at the White Emperor Palace tonight, inviting all the top geniuses who have come to participate in the Heavenly Pride Ranking to the banquet."

"Lord City Lord, you specifically instructed me to personally deliver this invitation to you."

Chu Feng accepted the golden invitation card, and as he looked at the two characters "Chu Feng" written on it in a flamboyant style, a meaningful smile appeared on his lips.

A welcome banquet?

It seems that Baidi City is even more bustling than I imagined.
