It was only after feeling a twinge of pain that Rong Li loosened his grip.

The common people all exalted the inheritance, but they were unaware of the inhuman pain that Duan Yue was “enjoying” while receiving the inheritance.

When it got to the point where he could no longer stand the pain, Duan Yue’s hands shook as he tried to take out a medicinal solution from his inner world to replenish his energy.

Yet he soon discovered that he couldn’t accomplish this.

The present him probably couldn’t even lift a single finger…

On the other hand, outside, the emperor was declaring joyously, “It has only been several days since Old Fourth moved into the palace, so he won’t have too many things in the Nanqiao Palace he has originally been staying in. You all go and move his belongings to Taiji Palace for him first. Remember, prepare all items according to the highest standard.”

“Yes!”

While standing beside his father, the crown prince Rong Li said with a smile, “If Fourth Brother knows how well Father is treating him, he will certainly be extremely happy.”

How could he not be happy?

That Taiji Palace was second only to the Eastern Palace!

Father was now regarding Fourth Brother highly…

He didn’t see Father favoring that illegitimate son all that much all those days prior.

Father was most likely full of expectations for this illegitimate son after this trip to the imperial ancestral temple today tapped into his potential.

The crown prince of the Ultramarine Province turned his face aside and did his utmost to compose himself. He said with a bright expression, “According to the elder, Fourth Brother will probably need to be in closed-door cultivation for many days. How about this son first accompanies Father back to the palace?”

“Might as well.” The Ultramarine Province Emperor nodded.

They would just be waiting around here anyways, so they might as well return to the palace first. Moreover, they didn’t know how long his fourth son would stay in closed-door cultivation inside the imperial ancestral temple. There was not much use in waiting around.

Upon thinking of this point, the Ultramarine Province Emperor turned to say to the elder, “Have someone keep watch at the entrance of the imperial ancestral temple. You must not let anyone slip in and disturb my fourth son’s cultivation.”

“Yes, Your Majesty!”

—-Sleepy’s section break—-

Night had already fallen.

The matches to decide the top 30 of the academy ranking compet.i.tion had reached a fever pitch.

While leaning against Mo Lian’s arm, Qiao Mu got sleepy from boredom.

Ever since they finished competing against number 18, their team had been on the bench the whole time, sitting for nearly the entire day!

“Might as well go back to sleep,” Qiao Mu grumbled in displeasure.

“Ay, I wonder how much longer it’ll last for?”

The mentors of the Six Prefectures’ top-ranking academies were rather capricious.

With a single sentence, everybody had to accompany them to fight by torchlight!

Mo Lian caressed her head. “Qiaoqiao can nap for a bit first if you’re sleepy.”

From the looks of it, it seemed like they wouldn’t be needed in the matches.

There probably wasn’t any sensible team who would challenge their Apex Academy to fight a decisive battle on stage.

Qiao Mu nodded and closed her eyes while leaning against Mo Lian’s arm.

She really did fall asleep.

It wasn’t until it was late at night that a loud shout woke her up with a start. Qiao Mu then opened her glazed eyes and looked at the brightly lit Shenghua Battle Arena. She rolled her eyes exasperatedly. “They still haven’t finished competing?”

“They could totally decide the top 30 tomorrow.”

“Why the need for the rush to go to Blinsheet Island?” Qiao Mu yawned while covering her mouth with her hand. She s.h.i.+fted to a new position while still leaning against Mo Lian’s arm.

“Shuntian Prefecture’s Celestial Light Academy challenges Apex Academy!”

Suddenly, a loud announcement entered everyone’s ears.
