"Xiao Mo, how's Little Tree?"
Ever since that day, Yun Luofeng did not enter the God Code Space again and was a hands-off owner, leaving Little Tree to Xiao Mo.
Xiao Mo was silent for a moment. "He has already eaten nearly all of the medicinal herbs inside the God Code Space."
Hearing this, Yun Luofeng rubbed her aching forehead. It looked like she needed to acquire medicinal herbs as fast as possible.
"I heard that the prize for the medical competition is a valuable medicinal herb." Yun Luofeng's eyes glittered. "So I must obtain this herb to feed Little Tree."
"Kekeke." Little Tree's tinkling laughter was heard, as though he heard her words. His laughter, transmitted to Yun Luofeng's mind through her spirit, was very joyful.
Yun Luofeng smiled and did not say anything more before entering her room.
...
The first round of the Inter-kingdom Tournament was the medical competition. The venue for the competition was situated inside the Imperial Palace of the Tianhui Empire.
At present, the venue was milling with people and bustling with discussions. Besides the emptied space reserved for the competitors, there were also viewing platforms for the audience.
Yun Luofeng walked to Zhong Ling'er's side and clapped her shoulders, saying, "Don't be too pressured. Even if you lose, it's no big deal. There's still me."
Zhong Ling'er nodded, but her keen eyes were brimming with determination. Since she was competing, she must do her all and absolutely wouldn't disappoint her master!
"Here comes His Majesty, here comes Noble Consort Ling!"
A shrill voice pierced through the venue, and a moment later, a bright yellow figure quickly walked toward them escorted by a procession of eunuchs and imperial maids. Following the dragon-robed man was a faintly smiling woman in imperial clothing. The woman was not only incredibly beautiful but also had a sweet and tender mannerism. No wonder the Emperor of the Tianhui Empire was incredibly mesmerized by her.
"Everyone, Zhen personally came to be a judge of the medical competition today." Long Yuan's face was held high as he looked down on the numerous young prodigies under him. "The first round of the medical competition is an elimination match. In a moment, Zhen will have someone bring out the medicinal herbs. Two prodigies will come up and write down the name and effects of the herbs."
Seeing everyone's stunned expression, Long Yuan's voice paused briefly before saying, "Zhen knows that it won't be difficult to write down the effects of the herbs with your talent, so only the ones who hand in their examination script first have the right to advance! Also, the herbs that every group faces are different, so you won't be able to cheat."
In other words, every group would get a new set of medicinal herbs, so no one would know the herbs that they have to face before they compete, which also prevented cheating.
After saying this, Long Yuan waved his arm and lavishly said, "Also, Zhen changed the prize of the competition at the last minute! All the medicinal herbs brought out today will belong to the winner."
Yun Luofeng slightly narrowed her eyes. What she lacked right now was medicinal herbs, so she would certainly get first place!
"Without further ado, the competition will start now."
Following Long Yuan's words, a eunuch immediately brought the medicinal herbs out. He also pulled out two strips of paper and read out the name on the paper.
"Zhang Ming, Zhao Wu!"
Instantly, the two people who were named walked out and charged toward the medicinal herbs without wasting a single second, their hands flying over the paper at lightning speed.
"Your Majesty." Noble Consort Ling glanced at Yun Luofeng below them with faintly dark features and whispered beside Long Yuan's ear, "That girl is Yun Luofeng."
