Phantasia: The Princess Knight

Chapter 276: The New Generation Rankings Tournament Begins!

Mei looked at Kang Bo surprised. "Why would you be willing to do something like that?" 

"Young Miss Mei, you have to understand that your cultivation at your age is basically unheard of. You see these elites in this tent? They are all between seventeen to eighteen years old and most of them can not even come close to being the same cultivation as your little daughter. Let's just say it's a way to give a bit of entertainment to everyone." Kang Bo explained.

Mei understood what Kang Bo meant. They would rank in a good profit if she won. Since betting was handled by the tournament's host. Because she was young, no matter what her cultivation was, people would think she was some big clan's daughter that knew nothing of the world and bet against her. By them setting up these matches she would get a chance to jump on to the dragon board and the Kang Bo would make a large some of spiritual stones out of the deal. So each would get something from the other. Nodding her head Mei cupped her hands and said: "Then I will leave it to you then." 

After everyone from her group registered, Mei and the rest left. Kang Bo walked behind a curtain to where a young man was sitting. "Young Master she has gone. Are you sure you did not want to speak to her? If I hurry I am sure I can still catch her."

"No, it's fine. We will have many chances to speak. I just wanted to get an understanding of her first. But I will say that I am quite surprised as to how powerful she and her group are. If I am not careful I might get left behind by her in just a month's time." Kang Yijun replied. 

"It will be a long time before she can reach your level, Young Master. You have already reached the soul transformation realm and you are only sixteen." Kang Bo said in admiration. He remembered that the day that Kang Yijun was born he was already a stage one qi gathering cultivator. He was basically born to stand above everyone. Now at the age of fifteen he was already a soul transformation realmed cultivator. He alone was strong enough to stand up against some of the bigger clans. 

"I would not be so sure about that. I believe she is a lot stronger than she appears. The way she moved yesterday was very quick. Even I lost track of her for a split second. " Kang Yijun was truly surprised when he saw the girl disappear from his eyes for a that split second. But he was able to quickly follow her. Her ability to use the law of wind was truly impressive. 

A few days passed and Mei and her family spent their entire time cultivating and sparring against each other. Today was the day the tournament was going to start. When they arrived at the battle stages, Mei noticed that her bracket was not with any of her family members. But Frey's and her's stages were right next to each other meaning Frey could be with her while she was not on stage.

Before they left in the morning Mei had casted location magic on each of them. Just in case anyone had any ideas about them or if one of them got lost. She also marked each of them so she could teleport right to them if something were to happen. Since they could not stay together like they usually did she made sure to take all these precautions. 

An old man stood in the air as he looked out over the crowd, a smile forming on his lips. "Fellow Daoist, today is the day that we will decide the rankings for the new generation. We have over ten thousand participants here today. Because of this each group battle stage will be holding a mass free for all until each stage is down to one hundred people. Please move to your assigned battle stage." 

Mei patted Frey on the head and said: "Frey, Mother will be on this stage here if you have any issues just call out to me. I will come right to you okay?" 

"Mhm! Frey will yell for mother if some bad person tries to kidnap her!" Frey said reassuringly as she nodded her head.

"Then go have fun." Mei said with a smile. Frey hugged and kissed Mei's cheek before flying off to her battle stage. Everyone else was separated by a big distance so Mei could not say anything to the others. She just hoped nothing would happen.

In the stands, a fat man wearing lots of gold rings and gold chains looked at Mei with killing intent in his eyes. "Qin did you set it up?"

Qin the servant girl with dead eyes nodded her head and said: "I did as Master asked. Thirty of the higher cultivation participants will be aiming for the girl who attacked Master and her group. Whether the people I hired can stay in the tournament or not, is up to them."

"Good! That's fine. I want both the dragon girl and fairy. They are very on the mortal plane. If things work out I will reward you well!" The fat man Hou Lin said. This was the same master and servant that Mei met when she first arrived at Twin Dragons Pass.

The female servant Qin looked at her master and said: "This servant is happy as long as Master is happy."

Hou Lin reached out with his greasy hands and grabbed Qin by her waist pulling her into his lap. "Haha! This is why I dote on you the most!" 

Mei stood up on the battle stage not knowing that there were plots against her and her family in the works. Right now she had her full concentration on the battles ahead of her.
