"she's not supposed to call him prince charming"... "is there some kind of relationship between them".... "don't tell me that the princess is interested in him"
Everyone began to gossip, the selection hall became a gossip center about the princess.
"All of you should stop now, it seems like Blossom had her own reason so don't pry into her secret" The emperor ordered making everywhere fell into an awkward silence as they all stare at the white haired youth.
"Tyler, you are interesting" the emperor commented with a chuckle.
Tyler stared at everyone blankly not knowing if he should be glad or be sad that the princess called him prince charming, this would only make other people test him more.
"Eunuch, move to the second round" the emperor ordered.
"so now we are going to the second level" the eunuch said loudly.
" the rules of the second level is the same as the first one, you are all superb cultivators so you have to spar with your until the last man standing "the eunuch stated.
" And my rule is also the same as the first one, spar among yourselves until the last man standing then the last man would forfeit by choice or by force "Tyler also stated like before leaving everyone dumbfounded, he returned to his former seat.
" Your prince charming is just like you, so proud "the emperor said and that treacherous smile appears on Aurora's face again.
" of course, he had to be, he's going to be the prince of the most beautiful lady in the world "Aurora said with a grin.
The fight continued as usual and this time, it's more brutal than they last, all of them were severely injured.
Finally, there's a last man standing, he's covered in blood from head to toe even his breathing is very weak almost at the verge of fainting.
Tyler stood up from his seat and picked up his sword as he walked forward.
"I forfeit!!!" A loud voice said, it was the last participant, he wouldn't allow Tyler to kill him completely, he had already forfeited.
"Now that's a meaningful thought" Tyler said and sat down back.
One of the ministers in the imperial court stood up from his seat, he is the left chancellor who is also invited here as a guest, he walked towards the middle of the stage and bow his head.
"Your majesty, I have a comment to make" he said as the emperor nodded his head gesturing him to talk.
"I suggest that you put this white haired youth to test, he is extremely cunning, he came here to participate in the selection but he sat down throughout all the battle and then he'll defeat the weakest of all of them, this person is not befitting for the valet's role" he stated his reason with his head still looking down.
"You this old monkey, how dare you talk to my prince charming like that!!!" Aurora cursed as she stood up angrily from her seat with her one of her hand pointed at the chancellor.
"Blossom, that's Rude, he's at least old enough to be your grandfather" the emperor rebuked as he forcefully pull her daughter to seat down.
"And that's also one of the reasons why he needs to be tested" the chancellor said.
"your reasons?" the emperor asked.
"Your majesty, we had all known that the princess fancy no man, she had always been adamant on not getting married but as soon as this man came, the princess started all sort of action that's improper which is something she'll never do before" the chancellor said and paused a little.
"So this white haired youth must have drugged the princess, moreover he recently rose to fame in the east which made me suspect that he's not a native of Cluster Ruins continent but a spy sent from other continent to gather military intelligence about our borders" he continued and everywhere turn silent.
"You this crazy monkey, you actually said he committed treason?!!" Aurora who is already fumed couldn't hold back her anger anymore.
"I'm a minister of Cluster Ruins continent so thus I had to care for my country, it's just my suspicion, princess do not need to be angry" The chancellor apologized.
The emperor was silent, he looked at the chancellor and then looked at Tyler but one thing still confuse him.
Tyler is unexpectedly calm, there's no fear or surprised expression on his face which wanted to make him believe the chancellor's word that he's indeed a spy.
"you're not scared?" The emperor asked in confusion.
"There's no reason for me to be scared your majesty, my conscience is clear, the chancellor is just too old thus he can't think well" Tyler replied with a mild smile.
"But ain't you supposed to be at least scared or protest that you're not a spy but you are unwaveringly calm, it wanted to make me believe the chancellor" The emperor said and many gasped.
If Tyler is truly a spy, that would be an act of treason, it's punishable by death.
"Your majesty may believe whatever you feel like believing, Tyler Wills is at your disposal "Tyler said and bowed slightly.
" Your majesty, I suggest that you kill this white haired youth to avoid future troubles"the chancellor suggested as many people eyes popped out.
" Hey, old monkey, you're going too far!! "Two voice sounded at the same time, it's Aurora and Tyler.
They looked at each other and smiled seeing that they said the same thing at the same time.
" Your majesty, I suggest that you spare Tyler Wills "A voice sounded among the crowd as many people looked toward that place.
The person who spoke just now is the right chancellor of the imperial court.
" Your reasons? "The emperor asked.
The right chancellor walked towards the stage and stood beside the left chancellor.
" I heard that a few days ago that the most powerful child of the left chancellor challenged the mysterious white haired youth to a battle of life and death which means one of the two must die, he could not be able to defeat the white haired youth and is killed instead, thus I thought that this is the left chancellor personal agenda "he stated.
What he said indeed make sense, this may be the left chancellor personal agenda.
"So what about the great princess unwavering love for him? the left chancellor asked.
The crowd were left confused again, so what about the great princess unwavering love for him indeed? it's another case.
