"Your Highness, please transform the Crown Prince's robe into a formal robe and put on this dragon-patterned sword. Oh, right, we're still missing a few accessories." Prime Minister Turtle arrived early in the morning and immediately began arranging for Zhou Xiaobai to change his clothes.

Zhou Xiaobai reluctantly obeyed the arrangement; today was a big occasion.

"Caiyi, quickly go and fetch all of the Fourth Prince's accessories!" Prime Minister Turtle turned to Caiyi and ordered.

Caiyi ran off and soon returned with a box containing jewelry.

Zhou Xiaobai never paid attention to these trivial matters, so Caiyi always kept the gifts sent by the East Sea Dragon Palace.

The Turtle Prime Minister selected a jade pendant and a string of pearls from the jewelry box and hung them on Zhou Xiaobai's belt.

"Your Highness, there are still guests ahead. This old minister will go and attend to them first. You should also proceed as soon as possible!" Prime Minister Turtle said, bowing with satisfaction after looking at Zhou Xiaobai's attire.

"Did the Three Seas Dragon Palace arrive so early?" Zhou Xiaobai asked, somewhat puzzled, as he watched the Turtle Prime Minister leave.

It's only morning now, and the celebration starts in the afternoon. Even if the Three Seas Dragon Palace arrives earlier, it will still be close to noon.

"The Dragon Kings who have been enfeoffed to various regions arrived first!" Caiyi replied while helping Zhou Xiaobai straighten his clothes.

"Didn't you say you only invited the Four Seas Dragon Palace? Why are the Dragon Kings from various regions also here?" Zhou Xiaobai asked in surprise.

There are far too many dragon kings who have been enfeoffed throughout the land. Although not every named river or lake has an enfeoffed dragon king, most famous water systems are guarded by enfeoffed dragon kings, and the number of them is quite terrifying.

"Besides introducing you to the aquatic creatures, the celebration also aims to enrich your inner treasury!" Caiyi looked around and lowered her voice.

Zhou Xiaobai then realized that the Dragon King of the East Sea probably knew that he, the fourth prince, was too poor, which was why this celebration was held.

This is actually a tradition of the Dragon Palace. The aquatic creatures control the waters, and there are many rare and precious materials in the water. Each of them is quite wealthy, and they are willing to deepen their relationship with the East Sea Dragon Palace by giving gifts.

The Dragon Palace of the East Sea was also happy to use this opportunity to amass wealth; otherwise, how could the Dragon Palace possess such a vast amount of treasures, and its wealth would be extremely well-known throughout this world?

"The Dragon King of Qishui gifted me a thousand-year-old ice crystal!"

The Dragon King of the East Heng River presented me with a pot of Moon Essence Milk!

... "

As Zhou Xiaobai approached the main hall, he heard a series of gift names.

These treasures are mostly described in the "Record of Abundant Treasures of Nature," otherwise, before entering the library, he wouldn't even know what these gifts were.

Meanwhile, on the surface of the East China Sea, countless streaks of light broke the tranquility and flew towards the Dragon Palace.

Prime Minister Turtle led Zhou Xiaobai to meet the various Dragon Kings. Of course, since there were so many of these enfeoffed Dragon Kings, only those of higher status and position were introduced to him by Prime Minister Turtle.

Zhou Xiaobai doesn't need much interaction; a simple nod and a smile are enough, otherwise he'd be exhausted.

The dragon kings who were enfeoffed all possessed some characteristics of the dragon race, and the blood of the dragon race flowed in their veins.

A small number of the enfeoffed dragon kings also possess some true dragon bloodline. According to Prime Minister Turtle, most of them are branches of the true dragon lineage.

Although Zhou Xiaobai was not used to seeing so many guests at once, the constant announcements of gifts made him feel great.

He didn't have much understanding of wealth in the past, and even in his mortal days, he would take out the 'Gilded Pearl' to exchange for gold and silver.

After reading through numerous ancient texts in the library and gaining a basic understanding of cultivation, he realized just how important recognized cultivation resources like the 'Gilded Pearl' truly were.

He needs to trade spiritual items to obtain more of the introductory elixir he uses for cultivation, the "Heavenly Dragon Pill."

In addition, he also needs to prepare antidote pills, healing pills, recovery pills, and so on for himself, which are all essential items for going out.

These essential items also require the exchange of spiritual items. The Dragon King, who distributes spiritual items, can mostly be used for trading.

Zhou Xiaobai needs a lot of money to maintain his rapid cultivation and to have a certain ability to protect himself.

He has no other means of making money, and this celebration is probably his only chance in the near future.

"Fourth Prince, Second Prince has arrived!" The Turtle Prime Minister, who was introducing the enfeoffed Dragon King to Zhou Xiaobai, waved to the enfeoffed Dragon King in front of him and said to Zhou Xiaobai after seeing the people who had just entered the hall.

Zhou Xiaobai looked over and met the gaze of a scholarly-looking young man.

If it weren't for the introduction by the Turtle Prime Minister, he would never have believed that this young man, who looked exactly like a human scholar, was the second prince of the East Sea Dragon Palace.

The Second Prince ignored the greetings from the Dragon Kings who had been granted fiefdoms and went directly to Zhou Xiaobai.

"I am your second brother, you can also call me Keshou!" The second prince was quite friendly to Zhou Xiaobai, and said with a smile.

As he approached Zhou Xiaobai, the Second Prince sensed the same true dragon bloodline within Zhou Xiaobai's body, which was incomparable to the mixed bloodlines of those who were enfeoffed as dragon kings.

"Xiaobai greets Second Brother!" Zhou Xiaobai bowed in return.

As soon as he finished speaking, he realized his mistake. The name given to him by the Dragon King of the East Sea was Ao Ding, but he had never considered Ao Ding as his own name, which was why he made a slip of the tongue.

"You're also unhappy with the name your father gave you?" The second prince excitedly grabbed Zhou Xiaobai's arm and said excitedly.

It's clear that the Second Prince was very dissatisfied with his name, which is why he had the courtesy name "Keshou".

"Tell me, is this how you name someone? Father, you'd be lazy on something as important as naming someone!" The Second Prince ignored Zhou Xiaobai's embarrassment and continued.

Having finally found someone who shared his views, he felt a desire to confide in them.

"Cough cough cough!" Prime Minister Turtle hurriedly coughed, fearing that the Second Prince would say something more inappropriate.

"Come on, what's the point of chatting with these dragon kings? Let's go have some tea!" The second prince also realized that this was not the place to talk, so he dragged Zhou Xiaobai toward the side hall.

The Turtle Prime Minister shook his head helplessly. The Second Prince's temperament was beyond his control. Fortunately, he had already introduced the Fourth Prince to most of the important Dragon Kings who had been enfeoffed.

"Second brother, how can you be so unruly!" Just then, a deep voice came, causing the second prince to pause involuntarily.

"Big brother!" the second prince obediently clasped his hands and said.

Zhou Xiaobai knew that the speaker was the eldest prince of the East Sea Dragon Palace. The eldest prince had not completely transformed into a human, but rather had a dragon head and a human body, just like the East Sea Dragon King.

What caught his attention most was the icy aura emanating from the eldest prince.

The icy aura gave him the illusion of his soul being frozen upon first contact, which truly startled him.

"I forgot you're too young!" The eldest prince noticed Zhou Xiaobai's unusual behavior, quickly cast a spell to conceal his aura, and apologized.
