"Zi Ling? A purple bell?"
"It’s actually a fitting name, reflecting her abilities. It seems the one who named her knew she was a Heavenly Bestowed Body."
"This Supreme Stronghold is not simple at all. They’ve been secretly nurturing a Heavenly Bestowed Body. In front of this girl, I’m afraid even Jiang Wushang would fall short?" Having witnessed Zi Ling's strength firsthand, Chu Feng knew full well how powerful she was.
Don't be fooled by Zi Ling's apparent cultivation level of Xuan Martial Ninth Stage; her true combat power was far beyond what even Chu Feng could match. He felt that even Jie Qingming, with his unique weapon and Heaven Martial First Stage cultivation, might not be her opponent.
Right now, gathered on this spectator stand were the absolute top young geniuses of the Nine Provinces Continent. Yet, people didn't realize that the most powerful genius was actually the breathtakingly beautiful girl in purple robes, Zi Ling.
Zi Ling's beauty undoubtedly stunned the entire arena. Tang Yixiu and his companions, who had previously been scanning the nine beautiful women, now couldn't tear their eyes away from her. They kept muttering:
"Could such a ravishing beauty truly exist in this world? So young and already so captivating. What will she be like when she grows up? The man who marries her will want for nothing in this life!"
Even Jie Qingming and Xu Zhongyu were attracted by Zi Ling's beauty. The extremely arrogant Jie Qingming even thought to himself, "If asked which woman is worthy to stand by my side, my answer would undoubtedly be her."
"Chu Feng, this is a rare opportunity. You must win this girl's heart at the Marriage Conference and win her over. Otherwise, you'll be missing out on an incredible chance," Egg Egg reminded him with a grin.
"What? Stop joking! Don't you know how dangerous this girl is? Besides, she must hate my guts. You want me to hit on her? That’s like throwing a sheep into a tiger's den, seeking my own death!" Chu Feng refused without a second thought.
"You don't understand a thing, do you? A Heavenly Bestowed Body is someone blessed by heaven. They are born with abilities ordinary people don't possess, granted with Divine Heavenly Power."
"If this kind of power manifests in a man, it's fine, but if it manifests in a woman, then her future husband will also receive tremendous benefits," Egg Egg explained.
"Tremendous benefits? What benefits?" The mention of benefits instantly piqued Chu Feng's interest, and he couldn't help but ask.
"As long as you consummate a physical relationship with her and take her first time, a portion of her unique Divine Heavenly Power will also be absorbed by you and transformed into your own power."
"For ordinary people, this divine power would be immensely helpful in cultivation. But for you, it might allow you to comprehend the power of the Divine Thunder within your body."
"Even though you can now rely on the power of the Golden and Blue Thunder to break through two levels of cultivation, you know very well that isn't their true power."
"You can't comprehend their true power at all, and naturally, you can't use it. However, if you could consummate a physical relationship with Zi Ling and take a portion of her Divine Heavenly Power, you might have the chance to comprehend the secrets of the Divine Thunder. Even if you can't, it will still advance your cultivation further," Egg Egg explained in detail.
"Is such a thing actually possible?" At this moment, Chu Feng was also ecstatic, his heart filled with anticipation.
Just as Egg Egg said, from the very beginning, he could feel the immense power contained within the Divine Thunder in his body. It was an indescribably terrifying power, so terrifying it seemed like it shouldn't even exist in this world. Yet, he could only sense it, unable to control the Divine Thunder at all, let alone harness its power. So, after hearing Egg Egg's words, his mind immediately changed.
Even if there were mountains of blades and seas of fire ahead, he would walk through them. He made up his mind that, no matter what, he had to win over this Zi Ling, because he didn't want to miss the chance to obtain the power of the Divine Thunder.
Indeed, Zi Ling attracted the attention of every man present, regardless of age. Not only the younger generation, but even the older generation of experts were smiling as they admired this peerlessly beautiful girl.
Especially after the Supreme Stronghold's master, Qin Lei, announced that Zi Ling was also his adopted daughter, people valued this young woman even more.
Right now, on this luxurious spectator stand, atop this mountain peak, this girl named Zi Ling was undoubtedly the most dazzling figure.
"Ladies and gentlemen, the Marriage Conference has reached this stage, and it is time to announce the method of matchmaking."
"Our Supreme Stronghold's purpose in hosting this Marriage Conference is simple: first, to find good partners for these outstanding young ladies of our Stronghold, and second, to make friends far and wide and expand our Supreme Stronghold's connections across the Nine Provinces Continent."
"Some may ask, there are nearly a thousand men participating in this Marriage Conference, but only a hundred ladies. How will this be handled? Will there be a martial arts competition?"
"Of course not. While I, Qin Lei, want to find powerful husbands for our ladies, I don't limit it to their current strength. What I value more is their future potential."
"This is why, during the preliminary assessment, we opened two Infinite Ground Palaces. This is also why we have both Xuan Martial and Yuan Martial talents present here today."
"Despite the huge gap in your current strength, you all share a common trait: you all possess excellent talent in cultivation and will have great development in the future."
"Speaking of this, some may ask, since there won't be a martial competition to decide who gets the beauty, how will this Marriage Conference proceed?"
"Actually, it’s still very simple. I am leaving this choice in the hands of my hundred young ladies."
"Our Supreme Stronghold will organize a special training exercise. During this training, the hundred young ladies of our Supreme Stronghold will also participate. This provides you all with an opportunity to interact closely."
"During this time spent together, it is believed that the hundred young ladies will find a satisfactory suitor in their hearts. And after this training concludes, the hundred ladies can announce who they are satisfied with. At that point, the Marriage Conference will reach its successful conclusion," announced the Supreme Master, Qin Lei, in a loud voice.
"So that’s how it is? We have to rely on our own abilities to attract the attention of the hundred beauties? Not simply using martial strength to determine the order? This method is actually quite interesting."
At this moment, the crowd began to stir, and many expressed their approval. Qin Lei's method had, after all, given everyone a chance.
