"Beauty Xiao wins first place in the red - makeup competition."
A round of applause erupted. This title was well - deserved, for Beauty Xiao was extremely enchanting. Her facial features were so charming that it was almost irresistible.
Her red - makeup skills were so exquisite that one couldn't find a second person as proficient as her in the whole Zhou Jiangchang area.
"Second place goes to Lady Begonia."
Another round of applause followed.
Lady Begonia was the first lady and also an alchemist. Over the years, while managing household affairs, she never neglected her self - care. With her good natural endowment, after applying red makeup, she looked even more imposing and dignified as the mistress of a family.
This ranking was also within everyone's expectations.
"Third place, Lady Xiang."
"What!"
"With her red - makeup skills?"
"How is this possible?"
But when Lin Feng cast a fierce look at the crowd, they all shut their mouths and dared not say another word.
They almost forgot that the main judge of this competition was Lin Feng.
As for the subsequent rankings, the crowd lost interest, as they were just the same as before.
Zhao Shuning was quite satisfied with this result.
Now, Lady Begonia, Beauty Xiao, and Lady Xiang had each won their first - place items. The only decisive competition left was the spiritual - power contest.
Looking at Lady Begonia's confident look and Beauty Xiao's equally assured expression, for some reason, a strong sense of unease suddenly welled up in Zhao Shuning's heart.
Did Beauty Xiao also have a trump card?
Zhao Shuning's face suddenly changed. Mo Bai was a bit worried and wanted to go up and talk to her. But at this moment, a man in a black cloak reached out and grabbed Mo Bai.
The next moment, Mo Bai disappeared from everyone's sight.
This man had excellent spiritual power. Even Zhao Shuning didn't notice anything amiss.
After this competition, it would be the turn of the assistants to compete. With the Industry Fire Red Lotus given by her master, Zhao Shuning was naturally not afraid.
She just wondered if Mo Bai would be hunted down by Lady Begonia because of her after this competition. She had to think of a good way to help Mo Bai get out of this whole mess.
At this moment, Mo Bai appeared beside a stream outside the venue with the mysterious man.
Mo Bai was glaring angrily, and his surging spiritual power was about to burst out.
But at this moment, the mysterious man in the black hood clasped his fists and knelt on one knee.
"Your subordinate, Qing Feng, pays respects to the young master."
Qing Feng?
Seeing that the other party meant no harm, most of the spiritual power around Mo Bai dissipated, and a look of confusion appeared on his face.
"Congratulations, young master, for successfully obtaining the inheritance power of the Blazing Fire Dragon. From now on, our Divine Sect will have a worthy successor. If the Divine Throne knew about this, he would surely be very pleased."
Divine Sect? Divine Throne? Young master?
All these strange yet familiar words kept echoing in Mo Bai's mind.
Suddenly, his head ached violently. He clutched his forehead and squatted down.
The mysterious man remained in front of Mo Bai.
"Young master, what's wrong with you?"
"Young master, let me help you. Let me help you remember everything."
Qing Feng's hand seals changed, and he began to pour the memories of the Divine Sect into the young man's mind continuously.
Qing Feng was one of the four guardians of the Divine Sect, and the Divine Sect was the only organization that could hold its ground in the Ghost Domain City.
Mo Bai was the sole heir of the Divine Sect.
However, when he was young, because of his extraordinary talent and eagerness for success, he went alone to subdue the Blazing Fire Dragon. He didn't expect that the Blazing Fire Dragon was an ancient fierce beast, ranking among the top ten of all fierce beasts. How could a young boy completely conquer such a tyrannical beast?
After that incident, Mo Bai disappeared.
The Blazing Fire Dragon also disappeared.
The Divine Throne searched every corner of the Ghost Domain and dispatched all the vultures, but still couldn't find a trace of Mo Bai.
Mo Bai, because he completely enraged the Blazing Fire Dragon, was dragged up by it and flew directly across the Great Dark River to the territory of the Eastern Wilderness.
When passing by the Misty Mountain, Mo Bai exhausted all his cultivation and transformed his spiritual power into a huge sword, then pierced through the back of the Blazing Fire Dragon, causing it to fall rapidly into a cave beside a dark pit.
The dying Blazing Fire Dragon struggled continuously in the darkness. It pierced through Mo Bai's shoulder blades with its dragon bones and completely locked Mo Bai in the cave.
Suffering such excruciating pain, Mo Bai fainted.
Day after day, the convergence of spiritual power in his body made Mo Bai forget his identity and name.
All he saw every day was endless darkness.
As time passed, his memories began to be gradually buried.
His only goal in the cave was to survive.
Only by surviving could he get out.
"Young master, young master, how are you?"
Mo Bai's head was splitting with pain. Most of his memories were pouring into his mind like a river. He remembered many things.
In a solemn place, there was a palace.
In that palace, there were many strange - looking people. Different animals were associated with them, and they crawled on the ground like animals.
On the highest seat, there sat a man. He called that man father.
Then, the scene changed. Many people surrounded him. They laughed at him, scolded him, saying that he had spiritual power but still hadn't managed to subdue his own fierce beast.
They said he was useless.
He covered his head, not wanting to hear them, but those dirty words still reached his ears word for word.
So, he picked up his bow and arrow and broke into the most mysterious place in the Ghost Domain. He wanted to tame the most ferocious Blazing Fire Dragon there.
What happened next was the darkest time in his childhood.
He failed.
But in the end, he managed to kill that ancient fierce beast. As a result, he was trapped in the Misty Mountain, in that cave.
Mo Bai remembered everything.
The token on his chest was also inspired and flashed different colors.
It was precisely because Qing Feng felt this aura from Mo Bai and recognized the token that he was able to identify him.
Mo Bai opened his eyes in an instant.
In his eyes, all the previous purity was gone. All that remained was darkness and intimidation.
The young master of the Ghost Domain, who could subdue an ancient fierce beast at a young age and had obtained the inheritance power of the Blazing Fire Dragon. It seemed that the day when the Divine Sect would completely control the Ghost Domain was not far away.
Qing Feng also noticed Mo Bai's change. He stopped forming hand seals and stepped forward, intending to help Mo Bai up.
But before Qing Feng's hand could touch Mo Bai, it was blocked by a whip formed of spiritual power.
"Don't touch Mo Bai!"
The voice of a young girl came from afar. The next moment, she blocked in front of Mo Bai.
