This proves that the Heaven's Secret Pavilion is nothing more than a fraud syndicate swindling money everywhere under the guise of fortune-telling and rankings! For a long time, they have fabricated the so-called Prodigy Roll and Beauty Roll to secretly amass wealth, severely disrupting social harmony and stability! They even secretly spread rumors, stir up trouble, oppose the imperial court, and intend to subvert the Great Zhou Empire.
By His Majesty's decree, from this moment on, the Heaven's Secret Pavilion is classified as a Grade-A anti-Zhou fraudulent terrorist organization! A Heavenly Arrest Warrant is issued across the entire Great Zhou territory! Anyone who reports a Heaven's Secret Pavilion stronghold will be rewarded with one hundred thousand taels of silver! Anyone who slays an elder of the Heaven's Secret Pavilion will be rewarded with one million taels of silver and granted a marquis title! Whoosh—!
As soon as these words were spoken, the entire audience was in an uproar!
The higher-ups of those hidden sects all had strange expressions, the corners of their mouths twitching madly.
What kind of bullshit fraudulent organization! Who in the world didn't know that the Heaven's Secret Pavilion's deduction arts were unparalleled? Why didn't that Li Wanru make it into the top one hundred? Wasn't it because she used to be the little tyrant's white moonlight, and not only was she an ultimate two-faced green tea bitch, but she also gave Wang Hao attitude when he was still the Crown Prince, running off with another prodigy!
Who among those present wasn't a shrewd fox? Who didn't know that the Emperor of Great Zhou was notoriously petty and vengeful? This was clearly using public office to avenge private wrongs, utilizing the state apparatus to manipulate things behind the scenes, forcibly arranging for a highly cultivated shrew to eliminate the woman who had offended him back then, and conveniently exposing the Heaven's Secret Pavilion, which supported the rebels! You little emperor, this is pure retaliation.
Although everyone's minds were as clear as a mirror, after sensing the nine terrifying Sky Realm auras above their heads, not a single person out of the hundred thousand in the audience dared to stand up and utter a word of protest. There were even a few clever patriarchs of noble families who wanted to cling to the royal family's thigh, immediately taking the lead to stand up, clap, and shout: His Majesty is wise! Crack down on fraud! Down with the Heaven's Secret Pavilion! Long live the laws of Great Zhou!
On the rostrum, Wang Hao looked at the impassioned anti-fraud grand occasion below, satisfiedly picking up a cup of top-grade Blood Spirit Tea and taking a sip. The long-standing resentment in his heart was finally vented.
Provoke Us? We not only want your life, but also want to ruin your reputation and cause your social death!
...
The farce is over, time for the main event. A golden light flashed in the depths of Wang Hao's eyes, and a supreme ocular skill that seized the fortune of heaven and earth—the Son of Heaven's Qi Observation Art—was instantly activated.
His gaze pierced through the illusions of the gladiatorial arena, directly locking onto the preparation area below, where the ten top beauty seeded contestants who had ultimately advanced to the top ten through his behind-the-scenes manipulation were located.
Good heavens, he wouldn't have known if he hadn't looked, but one look gave him a jump. Wang Hao's eyebrows suddenly shot up.
In the vision of Wang Hao's Son of Heaven's Qi Observation Art, above the heads of these ten women, there were no smoke columns of vitality like ordinary martial artists. Instead, they had all transformed into various auspicious beasts and divine objects. The intensity of their providence was simply blinding!
Ranked fifth on the fake roll was the Holy Maiden of the Gu God Tribe, Anu. She appeared to be a charming and cute young girl from Miaojiang, but hovering above her head was the phantom of an ancient Seven-Colored Heaven-Swallowing Gu. Its toxic aura soared to the heavens, and her providence was like a rainbow. Anyone who got even slightly close would have their own providence invisibly encroached upon by her.
Ranked third on the fake roll was Ye Hongling, the Holy Maiden of the Netherworld Demonic Cult, the number one demonic sect in the world. Dressed in red clothes like blood, she was surrounded by a scarlet blood moon. That pure aura of slaughter even caused the surrounding air to form blood-colored frost. She was a textbook template of a demonic empress who would kill her father to prove her Dao!
Looking again at the second place on the fake roll, Shen Xue, the Holy Maiden of the hidden sect Ice and Snow Divine Palace. Hers was a hundred-zhang-tall Frost Valkyrie dharma idol, emitting an intimidating chill and untainted by the mortal world. As she sat there, even the air within a ten-meter radius was frozen solid. She was the living, ultimate spokesperson for the Dao of Ruthlessness.
But what made Wang Hao's heart palpitate the most was the first place on the fake roll—the Holy Maiden of the most mysterious sect, the Illusory Sea Immortal Sect, Yun Meng!
Under the Son of Heaven's Qi Observation Art, a vast sea of stars was actually blooming above Yun Meng's head. Within the sea of stars, a faintly discernible Nine-Tailed Heavenly Fox was lazily stretching its body. That massive, suffocating pink providence was actually a full three times richer than the Golden Lotus of Providence above the head of Ye Chen, the destined protagonist whom Wang Hao had previously set up and killed!
Fuck... Wang Hao couldn't hold back and cursed in his heart.
He finally understood. How was this a beauty pageant? This was clearly an offline meetup for all the female protagonists of the Divine State Continent!
These monsters... they won't treat the Great Zhou imperial court as a dungeon and clear it, will they. The corner of Wang Hao's eye twitched slightly as he frantically calculated their combat power in his mind. That Yun Meng and Shen Xue, both of them clearly only have the cultivation of the second level of the Astral Qi Realm, the seventh major realm of martial arts. Yet the equivalent amount of true qi contained within their bodies is actually comparable to an ordinary first level of the Sky Realm, the eighth major realm! Is this what you call a prodigy? These are clearly humanoid nukes wearing human skin! Killing enemies across an entire major realm defies all logic!
However, so what if their providence is strong? Wang Hao took a deep breath, a sickly excitement showing in his eyes. His favorite thing to do was to press these biological daughters of the heavens against the ground and rub their faces in the dirt. Today, you are all beasts in Our cage! The harder you fight and the more trump cards you exhaust, the greater Our profits will be!
Following an order from Wei Zhongxian, the top ten ranking matches of the grand finals officially commenced.
It had to be said that these holy maidens of the hidden sects indeed had the capital to be proud. On the arena, various Heaven-rank cultivation methods and top-grade magical artifacts emerged one after another. Frost and flames flew together; sword qi and Gu poison collided. They fought until the sky turned dark and the earth grew dim, a display of absolute brilliance. The hundred thousand spectators watched, entranced, their cheers shaking the heavens, while the gambling funds outside the arena surged wildly into the Great Zhou treasury like an avalanche.
However, just as the competition reached the third match, where the fourth place on the fake roll, the Joyous Union Sect's Fairy Hua Nongying, faced off against a female sword sect disciple from a second-rate sect, an epic farce worthy of being recorded in the annals of the Divine State Continent occurred.
This Hua Nongying wore an extremely revealing pink gauze dress with pitifully little fabric. Her appearance was so coquettish and alluring that even women would be jealous, and her every movement exuded a charm that made people's bones go soft.
But on the arena, he (she) was not only in no rush to deal a heavy hand and defeat the opponent, but instead used extremely ghostly footwork to frantically cop a feel on that female sword sect disciple. One moment touching her thigh, the next moment embracing her slender waist, all while letting out nauseatingly coquettish giggles.
Oh my, little sister's waist is so soft. You must practice backbends a lot, right? Hua Nongying slapped a palm onto the female sword sect disciple's buttocks, taking the opportunity to give it a squeeze.
You... you shameless temptress! I'll fight you to the death! The female sword sect disciple's face was flushed red from being touched, and her mind finally broke. She directly abandoned her defenses and forcibly detonated the Earth-rank high-grade spirit sword in her hand, attempting mutual destruction.
Boom!
With a loud bang, the massive explosive shockwave overturned the defenseless Hua Nongying, and also directly tore apart his already flimsy pink gauze dress.
Just as the hundred thousand male spectators in the audience widened their eyes and held their breath, preparing to admire the legendary Joyous Union Sect Fairy's sudden exposure of spring...
Time seemed to stop at this very moment.
"Holy shit?!!!"
It was unknown which sect bigwig in the VIP boxes was the first to shriek, but immediately after, the entire arena of a hundred thousand people erupted into a heaven-shaking roar of curses that nearly blew the roof off!
Hua Nongying, who was lying spreadeagle on the arena floor in tattered clothes, had his pants completely blown to shreds!
"F*ck your mother! Refund our money! This is a man!"
"I spent a hundred and fifty thousand taels on a VIP box, and you show me a crossdresser?! I was just gulping down my saliva looking at him! Refund! Give me a refund!"
"I'm blind! My Dao heart is shattered! Joyous Union Sect, I am at odds with you under the same sky!"
The entire audience, especially those young masters of noble clans who had just been frantically waving flags and cheering for Hua Nongying, and who had even been fantasizing for half a month about spending a fortune to buy a night alone with her (him), now felt their stomachs churning violently. They leaned against their chairs and began to vomit uncontrollably. The entire arena was instantly filled with an atmosphere of despair and disgust.
On the main viewing platform, Wang Hao directly spat out the mouthful of premium Blood Spirit Tea he had just taken, spraying it all over Yuhuatian's face.
Wang Hao's face turned as black as the bottom of a pot. Although he knew the Joyous Union Sect had perverts who liked to crossdress as women, he never expected that this guy would actually dare to participate in the Divine Continent Beauty Ranking he was hosting! This was smashing his reputation and cutting off his path to wealth!
"Wei Zhongxian! How did you old dog verify their identities? Capture this damn crossdresser for me! Immediately disqualify him!" Through the voice transmission array, Wang Hao's furious roar echoed throughout the entire arena like rolling heavenly thunder.
Standing at the edge of the arena, Wei Zhongxian shuddered violently, breaking out in a cold sweat. He immediately directed the eunuch death squads to step forward and arrest the person.
Who knew that although Hua Nongying was exposed, he did not panic in the slightest. Not only did he not run, but he stood up self-righteously, put his hands on his hips, and shamelessly shouted toward Wang Hao's VIP box:
"Emperor of the Great Zhou! On what grounds are you disqualifying me? This is naked prejudice! It's gender discrimination! Can't a man be a beauty? Even though I was born in a male body, in my heart I have always considered myself a delicate and frail woman! My soul is female! I demand to continue competing!"
As soon as these words came out, it was as if a mute button had been pressed on the hundred thousand people in the arena. Everyone, including the mighty experts of hidden sects, had their worldviews utterly shattered by this era-transcending, extremely avant-garde statement.
His soul was female? You could actually play it like that?!
Wang Hao stood before the floor-to-ceiling window, the corners of his mouth twitching madly. If this were the modern era, this guy could easily rack up a bunch of politically correct buff titles in America, but in his Great Zhou Dynasty, this was purely courting death!
"Good, very good." Wang Hao sneered, his black-bellied nature instantly fully exposed. His voice spread throughout the arena via the array. "You think you are a woman, right? I am an extremely open-minded monarch who respects the dreams of others."
Wang Hao turned his head and looked at Hai Dafu, the Director of the Directorate of Ceremonial behind him, with a tone as gloomy as an evil ghost from hell. "Hai Dafu, take your knife and go down there. Since he wants to be a woman, I will show great mercy today and give him a free castration surgery! Slice off that extra root of sin with one knife, and fulfill his ultimate dream of becoming a woman!"
"This old slave obeys the decree! Rest assured, Your Majesty, this old slave has been slicing off roots of sin for decades. My knife skills are the fastest, and I guarantee that with one stroke, the cut will be perfectly smooth!" Hearing this, Hai Dafu's fat face smiled like an old chrysanthemum. He drew a sharp knife gleaming with a faint blue chill from his waist and walked step by step toward the arena.
Hua Nongying looked at the sharp knife specially used for castration, and his arrogant attitude from just a moment ago vanished without a trace. Terrified, he clamped his legs tightly together, his voice cracking: "No, no, no! Your Majesty! I was joking! I'll withdraw from the competition right now! I won't be a woman anymore! I still need to keep it to carry on my family line!"
"You want to withdraw now? It's too late!"
There was no need for Hai Dafu to do anything at all. In the preparation area below the arena, the other eight top-tier female geniuses, who had just been incredibly disgusted by him, had all gone berserk.
The Saintess of the Ice and Snow Divine Palace, Shen Xue, whose iceberg-like face remained unchanged for ten thousand years, was now covered in disgust. She directly condensed a hundred-foot-long giant ice crystal sword in her hand. The Saintess of the Nether Demonic Cult, Ye Hongling, drew out a scarlet bone whip covered in barbs and burning with demonic flames. Anu of the Gu God Tribe directly summoned a dense, sky-obscuring swarm of man-eating poisonous Gu bugs.
"Sisters, this damn pervert wanted to take a bath in the same pool as us just now! Beat him to death!" Anu let out a shrill roar.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
There were no arena rules to speak of, nor was there any talk of martial virtue. The nine peerless female geniuses attacked simultaneously! All sorts of world-destroying ultimate moves drowned Hua Nongying like a torrential downpour.
"Ah! My face! Don't hit my face! Help!"
The miserable, inhuman screams echoed in the arena for a full half an incense stick of time. With these nine women joining forces, let alone Hua Nongying, who was only at the seventh layer of the Martial Dao, even an early-stage Sky Soaring Realm expert would be skinned alive.
When the smoke and dust cleared, a ten-meter-deep crater appeared on the arena. That crossdressing bigwig from the Joyous Union Sect had been beaten until all his bones were broken, his meridians shattered, and he was completely deformed. Even the face he was most proud of had been beaten into a pig's head. Finally, he was pitched out by the Imperial Guards with iron pitchforks like a broken rag.
ut it can buy an entire year of absolutely perfect training results! Su Yu stared at his empty wallet and decisively opened up various online loan platforms. “Borrow a thousand bucks! Recharge my vitality!” Boom! His vitality broke a hundred points, shattering the limits of the human body! “Borrow ten thousand bucks! Recharge my combat skills!” Boom! A basic punching technique so common it was everywhere instantly maxed out, revealing the ultimate assassination technique of Five Elements Unity—Inner Force! When a rich kid hired assassins for a midnight ambush, aiming to break both of his legs, they instead ran headfirst into a monster—a human-shaped tyrannosaur, brimming with dragon-like vitality. With just two fingers, Su Yu snapped a steel staff reinforced with alloy. Staring at the killer’s stash of stolen cash—a staggering quarter-million dollars—he showed a corporate-sincere smile: “Thanks for the pre-exam gift pack, Mr. Zhao! I’m gonna go re-invest this!” Three days later, at the National Martial Arts College Entrance Exam, while everyone else struggled just to reach the passing line, Su Yu threw a single punch—and more than a thousand vitality points literally detonated the entire arena!

For three days and three nights, she had his body fished out of the river, and without hesitation, she kissed the bloated corpse of Lin Xuan. She laid down beside him in a cold coffin, their fingers intertwined, a smile lingering on her lips as she closed her eyes. The noble and cold-hearted woman, only bending for one man—Lin Xuan.

. As long as he maintains the villain image and follows the plot to the grand finale, he can obtain generous rewards and return to the real world. So Gu Chen'an entered the role and began to act as a scumbag villain, but who would have expected that the female leads could hear his inner thoughts. Miss Su from the Su family was shocked: "I originally thought Gu Chen'an was a scumbag, but I didn't expect he turned out to be a gentleman! What? You said I have to call off the engagement? I definitely won't, I'll piss you off!" Bai Yuan Tian was dumbfounded: "Young Master Gu is usually unreasonable and a complete brat, but he actually calls me little sweetie in his heart? What, Young Master Gu even said he likes me?" As the female leads' images collapsed more and more, the plot also collapsed with it. Gu Chen'an looked at all this chaos. "Ladies, don't aggro me, if you keep this up the male lead really will stab me, I still need to survive to the grand finale!"
