In the middle of the night, amidst the full moon, the graceful princess stood above everyone else, descending like a fairy from the heavens.
Everyone stared at her, their eyes glued to this beauty.
The moon, the lake, the petals, all just added to this surreal beauty.
The lake was absolutely silent. No one even dared breathe when the Moon Princess' feet touched the green leaf with elegance.
The lake under the leaf did not even ripple, and she just stood on it. It was like she was weightless, for the leaf to not even move.
Then, she looked at the Pavilion Master, who was looking down at all of them.
She did not even move, and just looked away instantly.
In the very front, closest to the princess, but witnessing only her back, Liu Feng was quivering. The ice beneath him started to crack slightly, and the sound suddenly broke this silence.
The Moon Princess turned around to look at this source, and all of a sudden, her entire body shivered. Her mouth parted once, but she did not say anything.
All she could do was stay silent, for some reason.
"The Moon Princess is here. All of you know that this has been a tumultuous period for the kingdom, and the Moon Pavilion only wishes for peace. For this reason, whoever the Moon Princess chooses, we shall support to become the rightful heir to the throne." the Pavilion Master said gently.
Liu Feng paused.
Until now, it was confirmed that whatever happened today, the Moon Princess would be married away. This confused Liu Feng.
Min Wan was supposed to be in the Soul Evolution Stage. He remembered that her entire city was so strong, so she had to be that strong to keep them all in check.
How did someone so strong become a disciple of this power, and was being married off in a sudden hurry? She was strong enough not to be tossed around like this, and who would leave a Soul Evolution Expert?
Worried, he quickly tried to scan the Moon Princess with divine sense.
But before it could reach her, he was cut short.
"Please wait for a while, Young Noble Feng." the Pavilion Master said.
"Just what is happening here? This is too suspicious." Liu Feng clenched his fists and did not speak, just continuing to sit down, staring at the princess.
Min Wan looked at Liu Feng, but she did not say anything. She did not even try to transmit anything, which Liu Feng knew that she was capable of. It was like she was being kept hostage!
"Let us keep going with the festivities, Pavilion Master. But I truly hope that it is the Moon Princess that is the one who will select the final winner of the day, and not the Moon Pavilion." Liu Feng coldly said.
"It will be exactly as Young Noble said." the Pavilion Master nodded, and then she looked at Min Wan.
"The princess has to see her potential suitors in their brilliance. So, I think that the only way is for the young masters, princes, and chief disciples here to showcase their talents one by one. This will not be a battle. A battle is not what we want to see in this peaceful place. We just want you to showcase your brilliance." the Pavilion Master said.
"Then I think that as the prince, and the one who is destined for the princess' hand, I am the one who ought to go first." the Second Prince got up and said.
Liu Feng did not even want to contradict him. He just sat there, blankly looking at what was happening.
"Then it is better if we have a nice platform for you to perform?" the Pavilion Master waved her hands, and the petals on the lake all moved around.
They made a wonderful pattern as they moved to the side, becoming an audience, with the Moon Princess in the middle, standing like a true goddess.
Everyone moved, except for Liu Feng. His petal was forced onto the lake with the ice.
Liu Feng looked at the Pavilion Master and nodded. The ice melted slowly, and the petal moved slowly toward the other petals as well, him being in the very front, the best view of the Princess.
Surely, at their cultivation, they would be able to see the Moon Princess in her full glory even if they were further away, but this was also a question of standing. Whoever was in the front was considered the strongest.
And then, the lake was partially empty, with the princess in the middle, looking like a lonely swan, glancing at the water.
The Pavilion Master waved her hands again, and the Moon above suddenly seemed like it shone with a greater brilliance.
Then, the lake itself reflected this light, and it suddenly changed color, from a normal bluish black, to a dazzling silver.
It felt solid, and even Liu Feng could feel his petal suddenly get some support.
"This is a mysterious sect indeed. Guess it has a great heritage." he thought to himself as he looked at the second prince, who was hovering in front of the Moon Princess.
"It is an honor to meet you. As the next king, it will be only right for the most beautiful woman in the entire kingdom to become my queen." the second prince said as he took out a sword from his spatial ring.
All of a sudden, his sword shone, and he twirled up into the very sky, a manifestation appearing behind him.
This manifestation was that of a dragon. Dragon arts were very popular, apparently, and this manifestation seemed so strong that it could devour the very stars in the sky.
A golden dragon in the sky looked down at the Moon Princess, and it suddenly started dancing around it. The Second Prince's sword flew from his hand, and along with it, the dragon twirled around the princess, putting on quite the show.
Eventually, the sword returned to the second prince's hands.
He was panting. This show that he put also took a lot of Qi.
"That is all from me."
