Under the expectation of thousands of people, the elite competition finally came as scheduled.

In the early morning, before dawn, there were already traces of pedestrians on the way to the Colosseum, and when the first rays of sunlight shone into the Colosseum, the seats in the stadium were already filled with spectators.

On this day, Ling Xi arrived at the Colosseum early, and according to the rules of the competition, all the contestants had to wait for the official start of the elite competition in the White Stone Ring, and Ling Xi was no exception.

Ling Xi inquired around, there were about more than 10,000 people participating in this elite competition, because of the matter of the dragon tomb, the Dehongling Empire lost a lot of new generations, so more than 10,000 people were less than expected.

In fact, not only this year's elite competition, but also the number of Hantian seals in the last elite competition is even more pitiful, which is also related to the tomb of the imprisoned dragon, the new generation in the last period suffered the most losses, coupled with Qin Haotian's early departure, Jin Wuchai and the three were spurned by the world, making the last elite competition almost nothing exciting, and the last elite competition was also called the most failed elite competition in history.

Fortunately, when the new generation in the next period grows up, the Hongling Empire will no longer be in such a situation.

Then, Ling Xi set his eyes on the huge crystal in the center of the ring, the huge crystal was a standard cube, and a delicate jade plate was used to hold it underneath, the crystal had to be five or six zhang high, and the whole body was purple, Qin Tianlan told Ling Xi that this crystal was the purple source empty crystal.

According to Qin Tianlan, there was a small space more than two hundred miles wide inside the Ziyuan Sky Crystal, and the elite competition was held in this small space.

Regarding the Ziyuan Sky Crystal, Ling Xi also knows a little, it is said to be a special spar bred by heaven and earth, and the internal space is its own, according to the different quality of the spare, the size of the internal space is not the same, that is to say, the better the quality of the Ziyuan Sky Crystal, the larger the internal space, so to speak, the Ziyuan Sky Crystal in front of him should be of excellent quality, otherwise the internal space will not be more than two hundred miles wide.

In addition to the Ziyuan Sky Crystal, there are huge mirrors suspended in front of the four viewing areas in the southeast, northwest and northwest of the Colosseum, which are naturally not used for decoration, but are used to reflect the situation in the Ziyuan Sky Crystal in real time, so that the outside audience can always see the progress of the elite competition.

Not only is this the case at home, but each of the four sub-fields next to it is equipped with four identical mirrors, so that the people in the sub-field can also know the situation in the Ziyuan Sky Crystal in real time.

According to the fact that each branch can accommodate 50,000 people, the four branches are 200,000 people, plus the 100,000 people at home, the entire elite competition can actually accommodate 300,000 spectators, which shows that the Hongling royal family has also put a lot of effort into the elite competition.

Ling Xi deliberately learned that the entire western realm of the Misty Yang Realm was slightly more complete in the configuration of the Hongling Empire's elite competition, and in this regard, the Misty Yang Academy had also commended the Hongling Empire, as for what was awarded, there was no way to know.

Then there was the long wait time, and everyone was waiting for the official start of the Elite Tournament.

Ling Xi looked up, the sun was just above the highest level of the Colosseum at this time, and just as Ling Xi was wondering when the elite competition would start, there was a sudden movement in the viewing area.

Ling Xi looked along, there were a few more figures in the main stand of the eastern district, and judging by the reaction of the audience next to him, it should be that the emperor of the Hongling Empire has arrived.

For the Hongling royal family, although Ling Xi knows a lot of princes and princesses, but if he really wants to talk about it, he still doesn't know the entire Hongling royal family, he only knows that the current emperor's name is Qin Yunhan, and no matter how much, he doesn't know.

I don't know when it started, anyway, it has to have a history of hundreds of years, and members of the royal family will appear in every elite competition in the Hongling Empire, until Qin Yunhan ascends the throne, Qin Yunhan will attend the elite competition in the future, and this year is no exception.

I saw that in the main stand, Qin Yunhan and Queen Lan Xiyin slowly appeared, followed by several favored concubines, followed by a group of princes and princesses, and finally the three envoys of the Misty Yang Academy and many invited VIPs.

Ling Xi was a little puzzled, on such an occasion, he didn't see the old man of Hongshan and the white-clothed marquis of Longcheng, because the old man of Hongshan rarely left Shenzhou, so he didn't talk about the old man of Hongshan, but the white-clothed marquis of Longcheng was there at this time in the past, but now he didn't see the figure of the white-clothed marquis of Longcheng, which was somewhat strange.

Because of the appearance of the royal family, the four viewing areas immediately set off a burst of cheers that resounded throughout the world, and some of the spectators were even a little fanatical, which shows that the image of His Majesty in the eyes of the people today is still quite tall, at least they all respect their emperor and will not easily doubt it.

In this regard, Ling Xi didn't care, he didn't have a strong sense of belonging to the Hongling Empire, and he couldn't talk about reverence for Qin Yunhan, the imperial power naturally didn't have much weight in him, it was precisely because he didn't want to be entangled in these mundane things, so he never had too much intersection with the Hongling royal family.

The stronger a person is, the less things in the world can restrain him, which is actually the same as cultivating the theory of cause and effect, take Ling Xi as an example, the Wanjin Chamber of Commerce was able to restrict him before, but now the Wanjin Chamber of Commerce is only afraid of him, as for the so-called imperial power, Ling Xi is now a creation seal, so naturally he is not afraid of the Hongling royal family, and he will not take the imperial power in his eyes.

After all, the Hongling Empire will have a day when it can't accommodate Ling Xi, just like the original Sunset City can't accommodate Ling Xi, and Ling Xi will eventually leave the Hongling Empire, so he is not afraid of offending the Hongling royal family, the so-called imperial power, ordinary people dare not challenge, he doesn't take it seriously.

In the stands, a group of VIPs have arrived at their positions, and the princes and princesses who participated in this elite competition also went to the ring to wait, although they are princes and princesses, but in front of so many people, it is not easy to exercise special powers, so they can only wait in the ring with other contestants.

Ling Xi knew the steps to start the competition, and now when Qin Yunhan finished speaking and went through the specific process, the elite competition could officially begin.

In the main stand, Qin Yunhan and Lan Xiyin sat in the center, and after a while, Qin Yunhan called Qin Xuejie next to him and said in a low voice:

"Which one is Ling Xi?"

Although she didn't know why her father suddenly asked about Ling Xi, Qin Xuejie still looked in the crowd for a while, and finally found Ling Xi and pointed it out to Qin Yunhan.

Qin Yunhan looked at it, it was the first time he saw Ling Xi, and after his gaze stayed on Ling Xi for a moment, he nodded and said slowly:

"He's a good person, I heard that Xue Fei Xuexin meant that to him, how is it now?"

Qin Xuejie glanced at Qin Xuefei next to her, and then said:

"That was two years ago, and now they don't mean that. ”

"What about you?"

Qin Yunhan looked at Qin Xuejie with a smile, and unknowingly pulled the matter to the latter.

"Me?"

Qin Yunhan's words changed sharply, Qin Xuejie was a little overwhelmed for a while, she subconsciously glanced at Ling Xi, a trace of panic flashed in her beautiful eyes, but she concealed it well, and immediately shook her head and said:

"What does my father say about me, I'm not in a hurry. ”

Although Qin Xuejie covered it up very well, Qin Yunhan saw it in his eyes, his daughter, he still understood, and he didn't say anything, turned to look at Lan Xiyin on his side, and chuckled:

"Xiyin, you see that Xue Jie's age is not too young, do you have to find a family for her?"

Lan Xiyin looked at Qin Yunhan, then at Qin Xuejie, and said slowly:

"I'm not worried about her, you better take care of your son, when will it be true to add a grandson. ”

"Pounce..."

Hearing this, Qin Xuejie couldn't help laughing, in fact, their many brothers and sisters are good, at least none of them ended up in a political marriage, thanks to the increasingly powerful national strength of the Hongling Empire.

Although there is no political marriage, Qin Yunhan does not care about the marriages of the princes and princesses, it seems that everything is determined by the wishes of the princes and princesses themselves, so now, among the many princes and princesses, only the second princess and the third princess have married, this is still requested by the two princesses themselves, as for the princes, not to mention, there is not a single prince who is married.

It is precisely because of this that Lan Xiyin is a little annoyed Qin Yunhan, the queens of the past dynasties have already hugged the emperor and grandson at her age, but she doesn't talk about the emperor and grandson, even her daughter-in-law has not seen one, although she has found a lot of suitable daughters of famous families for the princes, but the princes have no intention of this at all, and in the end she is hopeless, so she simply gives up.

Qin Yunhan also knew that Lan Xiyin was eager to embrace the emperor's grandson, so whenever Lan Xiyin talked about this topic, he pretended not to hear it.

Qin Yunhan's reaction, Lan Xiyin was already used to it, and she didn't bother to say anything about Qin Yunhan, she asked Qin Xuejie to go back and sit down, and then chatted with the concubines one sentence at a time.

After waiting for more than an hour, after everything was ready, Qin Yunhan looked at the three envoys and said with a smile:

"Three messengers, it's almost over, the elite competition can begin, right?"

"It's up to Your Majesty to decide. ”

The three envoys said in unison, their duty was only to supervise the Elite Competition, as for when the Elite Competition would start, of course, it was still up to Qin Yunhan to decide.

I saw Qin Yunhan slowly stand up from the dragon chair, and with this action, the entire Colosseum fell silent, and all the spectators looked at the main stand, waiting for Qin Yunhan's speech.

Qin Yunhan glanced at the Colosseum, nodded with satisfaction, and then said:

"I hereby announce that the Elite Contest has officially begun!"

"Wow—"

After Qin Yunhan's voice spread in the Colosseum, the viewing area immediately set off a burst of cheers, and many people were even chanting long live, long live, long live.

In this burst of cheers that resounded through the heavens and the earth, all the contestants turned into countless streamers, rushing into the Purple Source Sky Crystal, and when the last contestant disappeared in the ring, the elite competition could be regarded as officially begins.
