When Xia Feng arrived at the plaza outside the Black Moon Church, he experienced what it was like to be treated like a star. Lately, the fame of Mu Shen had become increasingly exaggerated, causing the renown of her genius fiancé to rise along with it. His handsome photos, with no shortage of attractiveness, were all over the internet. For that reason, Xia Feng actually wanted to keep a low profile, but alas, his good looks wouldn't allow it. "Look quick! There's a handsome guy!" "Where, where?" "Eh, isn't that Xia Feng?" As soon as he got out of the car, talented young ladies and noble misses from all over had their curious gazes cast over, and Xia Feng felt as if those pairs of burning beautiful eyes were about to strip him naked. It must be said, in this world where the strong are revered, boys also need to learn to protect themselves when outside. Xia Feng ignored these eerie stares and looked up, guided by the candlelight of Miss Jianzhu, there were not only Shining Stones ahead but also Holy Liquid. Now, as he approached, the scent was becoming more and more apparent. Observing for a moment, he looked around and noticed that the plaza was not only filled with participants, but also many unrelated individuals exchanging business cards, probably here to make early connections with prospective Holy Daughters. After all, once one becomes a Holy Daughter, if not a Venerable, becoming a Fifth Rank Spirit Master in the future was pretty much guaranteed, so it was always good to befriend the talented ones who could be prospective Holy Daughters. "Li Hongdou? How come she's here again?" Some people noticed Mushroom following closely behind Xia Feng as he got out of the car. "Ahh? Xia Feng is actually with someone like that? What a letdown." "Friends of a genius are often geniuses too, don't you think there's a possibility that Xia Feng thinks Li Hongdou has a great chance of becoming a Holy Daughter, so he's befriending her in advance?" "Haha, you must understand a thing or two about jokes." "Mi Qi, is she the useless princess you talked about?" Not far away, a tall figure in a long dress stood in the middle of a group of guards, looking to be in her late twenties, with features that appeared female but slightly bold brows and broad cheekbones gave her a masculine look. "Yes, Lord Ito Mei," Mi Qi replied respectfully from the side. Ito Mei was currently the most likely candidate to become a prospective Holy Daughter, so she had to be reverent in her attitude. Only, she hadn't expected that after Li Hongdou was humiliated by her yesterday, she dared to come again, and moreover, she came with Xia Feng. That Xia must be blind, choosing to befriend such a wastrel. Mi Qi's Earl father was once nearly stripped of his title because of Prince Liszt, so seeing the now destitute Li Hongdou, she naturally felt delighted. Yet, she didn't expect such a down-and-out princess to have a good friend like Xia Feng by her side. "Dong——" As the noon bell from the bell tower resounded across the plaza, the doors of the Church Court slowly opened and the crowd entered in an orderly fashion. Since those who were not candidates could not enter the main hall, Xia Feng and Mushroom had visited the restroom before the doors opened. Mushroom placed her hand on Xia Feng's head, and with a thought, Xia Feng's field of vision changed, and everything around him became very large. He had turned into a white mushroom the size of a thumb, falling into Mushroom's palm. The shape of the white mushroom didn't look like a mushroom from reality, but rather had an anime style, with two big cartoon eyes spinning atop the mushroom cap, curiously whirl around and slightly lifted. Xia Feng then saw two towering mountains rise from the sides, and he could vaguely make out an even larger human face above through the dim light. "..." This perspective...is so strange. Before Xia Feng could react, he felt the gigantic hand carrying his body begin to slowly lift. "Little Feng, do we really, really have to do this?" The giant girl's red lips parted slightly, her expression somewhat nervous as she stared at the small white mushroom in her hand. The Spiritual Artifact of the mushroom could transform a person into a mushroom and swallow them into its body, allowing them to merge with it and go unnoticed by others. To sneak into the central hall and the Miracle Star River, this was the best method available, so Xia Feng had prepared himself mentally. He took a deep breath and the small mushroom cap looked up, "Come on! Swallow me, but please don't eat me." After all, as long as he was inside the mushroom, there was no need to be ingested, so aside from being eaten, there were only two places on the mushroom's body that could accommodate him... The mouth was obviously the best choice. Seeing that Xia Feng did not mind the filth, the mushroom did not hesitate any longer. Taking a deep breath, it began stuffing Xia Feng into its own mouth. Xia Feng's pupils dilated rapidly, the surrounding light quickly dimmed, and the moist, tender mouth felt like a pitch-black abyss. A terrifying, cobra-like red snake was slithering along the walls of this abyss, glaring at him with predatory eyes—suddenly— The world turned black. However, very quickly, Xia Feng found that his vision returned, only it was the mushroom's perspective now, exiting the bathroom and heading towards the door. This feeling was like being possessed by someone, unable to control their body, but able to see what the host sees, it was... Slightly uncomfortable due to the warm, damp surroundings. Upon entering the central hall again, the mushroom could feel the subtle, hidden glances from the crowd around, and the low laughter that kept breaking out among the people. People did not expect this useless princess to dare show up. However, the test three days prior was just that—a test. Even if the attribute value detected was low, as long as it barely met the threshold, she still had the right to participate in today's selection. Sёarch* The NôvelFire(.)net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. But everyone knew that miracles were not likely to happen, and would not choose to humiliate themselves. Yet the princess' skin was apparently very thick, as the crowd whispered among themselves. To the east, embedded in the ten-meter-high wall, two adjacent platforms saw the gradual emergence of a black and gold figure and a crimson figure, respectively. They were the Black Moon Church's Judgment Chief Zorav and the Elemental Church's Archbishop Lola. Archbishop Lola was an elderly woman with a weathered face like old tree bark, hunchbacked and leaning on a rainbow-colored Element staff, her dull green eyes calmly overlooking the people below. Judgment Chief Zorav, however, looked like a suave and charming middle-aged uncle, but when donned in the black and gold divine robe, he gained an air of solemn dignity. The opening of the Miracle Star River was originally the responsibility of the archbishops of both parties, but with Archbishop Aus's death, Zorav had to temporarily take charge. "This time, we will select two prospective Holy Daughters separately—one for Black Moon and one for Element... The selection criteria for Black Moon are: the person who makes the Black Moon Goddess open her eyes. The selection criteria for Element are: the person with the highest value in seven elemental attributes." Zorav spoke with a grave voice: "Once the Shining Stone Array is activated, 150 Yao Stones will automatically select the 150 individuals with the highest Element Attribute Values. Those who hold a Yao Stone will be able to enter the Miracle Star River. Moreover, the Yao Stone is your link to the Star River, and if it is taken away or lost, you will be forcibly returned to the Present Realm." The Miracle Star River referred to the countless stellar rivers between the Present Realm and the Star Realm, not only serving as a gateway to the Star Realm but also harboring an abundance of spiritual materials. It was a vast treasure trove. The Star Realms where the Black Moon Goddess and the Elemental Star God resided were located at the end of Miracle Star River number 7. Therefore, every time Miracle Star River was opened, both the Black Moon Church and the Elemental Church had to join forces to open Star River number 7. Also, for fairness, both sides would contribute an equal number of Yao Stones. These stones were very important assets of the churches, the loss of which was unimaginable. "Therefore, everyone, it is forbidden to snatch Yao Stones from others in the Miracle Star River. Otherwise, you will bear the consequences!" Zorav declared sternly and coldly.
