Jin Baoer came here not to discuss faces!
"I have a few questions for the City Lord!"
The man in the suit snapped back to attention, his eyes full of astonishment! He nodded in surprise.
"Want to know the specific reason for the Saintess selection?"
The general meaning was that the universe was vast and boundless, with endless strong individuals emerging, and the younger generation was full of exceptional talents. Pure-blooded talents were also increasing, yet no one had received the acknowledgment of the Divine Hall…
After all, the ultimate goal of every strong individual's lifelong pursuit of cultivation and becoming stronger was within that Divine Hall, to become an immortal existence, true gods!
But the Divine Hall remained closed, and no one could enter! Until not long ago, the Divine Hall showed signs of activity, and a message appeared in the sky!
"The Saintess is reborn, all things become one! Ascend to the Divine Hall, and wield judgment!"
For this reason, major planetary powers established academies to discover and train exceptionally talented children…
It was only recently that three emissaries emerged from the Divine Hall, advocating for the Saintess selection! They proposed various stringent conditions, casting a wide net across the universe. Upon receiving the news, major planets sent forth their most talented children…
It was said that one of the requirements for a Saintess candidate was talent and cultivation. No one dared to pass off inferior goods.
And the first hurdle of this selection focused on beauty! And it had to be purely natural. Cosmetic surgery and bone reshaping were not allowed, and double eyelid surgery was also unacceptable! The emissaries of the Divine Hall, with a benevolent smile, stated that the Saintess must possess unparalleled beauty and exceptional allure, and therefore could not have any flaws…
But who didn't know… that all the gods within the Divine Hall were obsessed with beauty!
Therefore, everyone knew the importance of Saintess candidates. Even with a one-in-ten-thousand chance, it was worth their respect!
After speaking, the City Lord’s smile became considerably warmer.
"Since you've just arrived, could you possibly… take care of Wuyou City in the future? It's not that I'm afraid, but the universe is becoming increasingly chaotic, and Wuyou City has been facing more and more problems recently. If this continues… Of course, you don't have to worry about us competing with your family for benefits, I…"
Before he could finish, Jin Baoer directly interrupted.
"Oh… I don't have a family!"
The cold-faced man behind her, who had been silent all along, suddenly looked up, staring at her in shock!
Jin Baoer smiled.
"A temporary measure!"
At this point, they understood everything. Jin Baoer was not affiliated with any power; she was truly alone, without backing or status…
But after the City Lord’s shock came immense joy!
"If you don't mind, Wuyou City can become your temporary safe haven! If you are selected, that's great. If not… Wuyou City can protect you once! Consider it repayment for your protection during this period."
The "this period" he referred to was the time Jin Baoer was a Saintess candidate! With the title of candidate, at least no one would dare to act recklessly during this time…
After all, who wouldn't worry? What if an enemy's descendant became the Saintess!
At this moment, the powers behind the women who failed the first round were as anxious as ants on a hot pan! They were filled with anger and helplessness in the face of ridicule and oppression!
The Lord of Wuyou City had also been suffering greatly because of this recently. Wuyou City didn't even have a single presentable candidate. Most of them had beast heads, or even beast bodies. Only those with half-human forms were also… difficult to look at.
This was truly a godsend!
Jin Baoer rejoiced. She happened to need someone to gather information and understand the universe. This planet where the City Lord of Wuyou resided seemed to be a transit point, where one encountered more people and events. Her assistance required no real sacrifice; in essence, she was the one benefiting.
"Good!"
With this firm agreement, both parties were satisfied!
Jin Baoer herself did not expect things to go so smoothly. However, she couldn't rely solely on the other person's words. She occasionally went out to discreetly inquire.
Finally, she indirectly asked about the whereabouts of Long Li Xing, but no one had heard of such a person, let alone any dragon clan…
"Why don't you participate in the Saintess selection first? The further you go, the more people will fawn over you and pay attention to you. The person you're looking for might see your information and approach you."
This advice was not unreasonable. It was like trying to find someone you had lost contact with in a vast crowd without any tools or a clear location. The best approach was to place yourself in the most dazzling position in the world…
At this moment, on a black planet resembling an inferno, a giant dragon opened its ice-filled purple eyes and gazed slightly at the sky…
Cracks seemed to spread across its massive body, and blood flowed down its form, slowly forming a mysterious circular rune.
"Plop…"
A single scale popped open and rolled onto the ground! Emitting a crisp sound that echoed for a long time!
"It has begun…"
A deep, resonant voice spoke, laced with a hint of relieved laughter.
Meanwhile…
Jin Baoer cultivated while searching for treasures that could replenish the power lost by Fen Bei. Last time, her danger had caused Fen Bei to lose too much energy, and she was still in a deep sleep. Jin Ling Dang, accompanying her, had also fallen into slumber. Beside her, only the comatose Bao Bao and Zhan Hun remained.
As for the reason her appearance could cause that "Mo" to be so smitten, she checked the information in Wuyou City's database but found nothing related to it.
Time quickly moved to the second round of screening…
Jin Baoer followed the large group into a teleportation cube! She marveled inwardly…
It looked like a mere transparent glass space, empty inside, with no discernible power fluctuations. This was said to be an artifact capable of traversing the universe without requiring any cultivation! Its holder – the emissary of the Divine Hall!
On this day, all the women who passed the first round in this area stepped forward, curious about such an object.
Until one woman, upon bumping into the cube, looked up at the emissary above the cube in utter confusion!
"I… I can't get in!"
The emissary smiled gently…
"Oh… I forgot to mention, those who are not pure of body will not be accepted by the teleportation cube!"
This meant that some had already lost their qualification before the second selection even began!
At the same time, everyone exclaimed in surprise, whispering amongst themselves. The woman’s expression turned panicked! She immediately protested.
"If this was a condition, why wasn't it stated earlier? Are you playing with us?"
This statement immediately drew the agreement of many others, who began to protest with dissatisfaction. Clearly! There were still those among them who were not pure of body!
The emissary’s expression remained unchanged, but the sarcasm in their eyes was enough to make one feel utterly ashamed!
"Then do you think the one who can ascend to the esteemed position of Saintess would be a woman who has lost her purity? Heh heh, a woman who cannot even control her desires, what difference is there between her and a beast?"
