The qualification selection, a continent-wide event jointly launched by the three great empires, was held at three border cities as venues.
All humans were required to participate; it was a compulsory event. Of course, most ordinary people had no idea what it meant, but it was said that those selected would receive generous rewards.
The rewards were issued together by the three empires, granting direct noble status in each empire.
Furthermore, the rewards for living, eating, and lodging in the next life would be fully covered by the three empires. The lavish rewards swept the entire continent within a day. It was said the participation requirement was also very simple.
All one had to do was drip a drop of blood onto a stone. With this generous offer, the entire continent began to mobilize.
Even some unwilling people were summoned due to the compulsory nature of the event.
Under such circumstances... surprisingly, that huge stone actually reacted.
Although the crack was very tiny... it did cause a reaction... But... looking at the names listed on it,
Even Allen beside the emperor was at a loss for words—there were indeed quite a few names.
However... almost all were infants under one year old, babies who had yet to develop any wisdom or understanding of this world.
Precisely because of this, the damage caused to the stone was minuscule.
After all, the abilities contained in an infant's blood are extremely weak, to the utmost degree.
"This won't do... with damage this slight, forget about the monster, there isn't even a proper crack on the stone," the emperor sighed helplessly. The second prince below him was also frowning thoughtfully.
As for the third prince, he yawned lazily, since he found this event very boring.
The second princess, meanwhile, remained silent, and Little White stayed close to her side, still unable to recover from the shadow of the monster.
The elder princess kept thinking, but with her battlefield-hardened mind, she simply couldn't come up with anything.
"Continue with the operation! One day we will find it! We don't have extra time to waste! At the same time, hurry and find out exactly where the monster is now!" The emperor waved his hand. The situation was quite grim.
At this moment, the usually lazy third prince raised his hand, clearly wanting to say something.
Everyone in the hall turned to him, surprised—what did the always idle third prince want to say?
"Hmm? Hai'er, do you have something to say?" The emperor looked at him with curiosity.
"Well, uh~! Why is this event held among the common people? Why not try it among the nobles as well?"
At the third prince's words, everyone was momentarily stunned, even the second prince was taken aback.
"...While your idea is good, perhaps it's a bit embarrassing. Could there really be such people among the nobles?" The emperor pursed his lips, obviously not believing there were truly pure people among the nobles.
"Hmm... is that so?" The third prince scratched his head and laughed at those who were losing control of their emotions.
Finding a pure person among the nobles is extremely rare in any world.
Or rather, out of a million nobles, perhaps only one exists, but the common people are different.
After all, nobles are synonymous with greed; the degree of corruption among nobles is beyond imagination.
Indeed, some in the hall couldn't help but chuckle softly at the seemingly foolish third prince.
The emperor frowned and silently noted those laughing for later dealing.
"Well, I accept the others, but isn't Fei'er purer than usual?" The third prince Yun Hai spoke again, making everyone slightly stunned, as if they were just reminded of something. No one responded immediately.
"..." Even the second prince and Allen, known for their wisdom, were momentarily stunned.
"...Eh? Me?" Yun Fei'er was confused by the sudden comment and only just realized what was said.
"Right! Second sister, aren't you supposed to meet the criteria?!" Yun Ying also reacted.
The hall suddenly grew noisy, everyone talking over one another, completely thrown into confusion.
"Quiet~!" The emperor frowned, glaring at the chaotic hall and shouted, instantly restoring silence.
"Could this be... your brilliance? Noticing something so small that we all missed? Amazing, third brother!" The second prince smiled, praising Yun Hai for the first time.
"Ah~! Actually, it's just because what I saw was too trivial, so I just wanted to ask! I'm not really sure!" Yun Hai scratched the back of his head, obviously embarrassed.
"..." Just as the emperor was about to speak, a sudden loud tremor came from outside.
Everyone paused and looked toward the door on the right, where the elder princess's chamber was.
Even the elder princess was slightly stunned. The emperor frowned.
Allen shouted, "Guards! What's happening outside?!"
A soldier hurried in, then knelt down anxiously and reported.
"Your Majesty! The elder princess's monster suddenly broke past the guards blocking it and burrowed underground!"
The sudden news stunned everyone, but Yun Ying immediately realized.
Fang Chen ran?! No wonder she'd recently felt her pet seemed to vanish for a moment!
"Father!! I'm going after him!!" Yun Ying didn't wait for the emperor's reply and immediately rushed out.
The emperor looked at Yun Ying running off, sighed after some thought.
"Forget it, right now Fei'er's matter is more important. Allen, you'll likely need to make another trip."
Indeed, compared to Fang Chen, whether Yun Fei'er was truly pure and kind was far more important.
The reason everyone considered this possibility was because of the second princess's long-standing innocence.
Even facing Fang Chen, she only shouted "Big Ugly" — the pure, childlike pursuit of beautiful things.
Yun Ying arrived at the scene, biting her teeth as she looked into the deep hole below, then without hesitation jumped in.
"Don't think of escaping!! I! I haven't! Haven't defeated you yet!!!" Yun Ying's shout echoed in the cave as she chased in that direction.
A moment later, Feng Xuanya arrived, a wild smile on her lips. Without hesitation, she followed, completely disregarding her burdens and duties, abandoning everything to give chase.
