Chapter 350: Second Prince
Jayden walks out of his room and climbs down the stairs, Wang Jia had gone out already since she wanted to see things over since such a big competition was going to take place inside the sect, and Jayden had taken her permission to do it inside the sect collosium.
When he got out of the house, he found the street outside bustling with a large crowd it seemed a lot of people were interested in the upcoming events.
' People have always been interested in such things, even on Earth everyone was too interested in the lives of the celebrities. '
Jayden thought as he heard all kinds of comments from people walking beside him.
" I heard even our king is going to participate, if it wasn't for the respect I have for him in my heart I would have gladly taken the first place. " One of the disciples said, his expression confident.
" Yes me too, I'm sure senior Xiao would have easily fallen for my charms but I don't want to disrespect our king by defeating him too badly. "
The second disciple from the group of three said before all three of them burst out laughing.
" Enough with your bullshit, tell me who do you think is going to win this competition? " The third disciple asked.
" Hmmm, ninety per cent chance is that the king will win. " The second disciple said.
" Then what about the remaining ten per cent? And aren't people above the Core Formation realm gonna participate? " Third disciple questioned.
" The king personally added that no one in those realms will be allowed to fight it seems he really wants to get his hands on the Goddess of our sect.
And the remaining ten per cent is divided among the top geniuses of the remaining two sects, any boy who has ever seen senior Xiao even a single time falls for her immediately, so it can't be helped. " The second disciple answered.
" But I'm sure that the king isn't going to let anyone else win, I had heard that he is pretty determined to make her his bride. I heard even senior Qiang is going to participate. "
When Jayden heard the last words from the first disciple he simply shook his head, it was hard to believe that Qiang hadn't given up on her yet despite all the things that had happened, even the third elder was dead, so Jayden decided to put an end to him too in the competition.
He was walking casually there since the competition still had some time before it would start, he saw many carriages walking by, and it seemed many families wanted to add Xiao to their family though no one dared to openly challenge the king.
The crowd became thicker as he got closer to the venue, this time the competition was going to take place in a big collosium, a lot of seats surrounded it and most of the people who had even heard of Xiao Rong's name were coming to see the spectacle, or maybe the king encouraged everyone to come and see his victory moment.
Jayden saw the remaining elders of the sect working there, since he had killed many elders before the workload on them had increased the sect had recruited one new elder since it was not easy to find someone with the perfect condition that fit the job, but then even the third elder was killed so the workload became even more heavy.
There was a big line of people who wanted to enter the collosium, some to just observe and some to participate, the gate for the entry for both types of people was different.
Four senior disciples were standing at the gate where the visitor's gate was, but one guard in Golden Armor was also present there it was clear that he was one of the guards from the castle.
' In the Spirit Creation realm, not bad, I wonder how many cultivators the pig has brought here. '
Jayden thought, after looking at the long line he turned towards the people who were there to participate in the competition.
The line there was much smaller, four senior disciples were overlooking the process there too but the number of guards there were four, all in the Spirit Creation realm.
As he observed Jayden noticed that they were only letting people go inside after checking their family name, affiliation, cultivation base and at last their faces and for some reason, Jayden felt it was somehow related to him.
' The king hadn't instructed them to stop me right? ' Jayden thought and stood behind the line, there were four people in front of him.
Only one of them was allowed to enter, based on one thing or another, the guards from the castle sent every one away to the visitor line even the senior disciples who were working there weren't saying anything but they didn't have the power to stop those guards.
" Show us your hand. " When Jayden's turn came, one of the guards in Golden Armor spoke to him.
Jayden stretched his right hand allowing the guards to check his bracelet for his identity, while one guard looked at his face as if he remembered something then he whispered some words in the ear of the guards who was probably their leader.
" Hmmm ok... " After listening to his words the leader nodded and then turned towards Jayden before saying:
" You can't enter, we have been informed by the Rong family that under no circumstances could we let Wang Jin enter the venue, so go back now you will not be allowed even in the visitors' line. "
The tone with which he spoke was extremely loud and rude, it even attracted the attention of everyone around as they began to gossip about why the Rong family have cancelled Wang Jin's entry into the competition.
" Maybe senior sister Xiao just doesn't want to marry him, but I don't understand why, he is talented as we have seen in the sect competition earlier and as for his looks, I... I haven't seen anyone better around, Maybe it's because of the king. "
One of the female disciples spoke, her eyes locked on Jayden and most people found it reasonable.
Jayden stayed silent, since there was still some time before the competition starts he decided to waste some of it here, some of the disciples around were criticising him while most female disciples were thinking that it was actually the king who was trying to stop his son from entering.
" What's going on here? " A loud and full of arrogance voice came from behind, everyone immediately turned their gaze towards the source of the voice and they were all surprised by the scene there.
A young man in a silver robe stood there with his head rising to the top, behind him several royal guards were standing and many carriages were lining in the street.
On one of the carriages the word: ' Second Prince ' was clearly written, after finding the identity of the young man everyone seemed to be afraid as they all took several steps back and bowed in respect or maybe fear.
