217: A public competition with 100,000 spectators!

The next morning.

Su Yang was having breakfast with Kaidun III; Wen Yunyao and the others, having spent the night in blissful union with Su Yang, had not yet risen.

As Su Yang and Kaidun III were eating, the two princesses arrived once more.

This time, they had changed into more capable, tight-fitting martial arts attire, which outlined their beautiful figures perfectly. Compared to their figures, the Aura on them was extremely formidable, revealing a vibrant, unyielding heroic spirit.

"Father, Young Master Su." Kaina spoke first, her voice crisp. "Please forgive us for our offensive words yesterday."

Upon hearing her words, Kaidun III was immediately delighted.

"Eh, that's right! You must have thought it through after going back."

"Could the husband Father chose for you be wrong!"

"Come, come, sit down and eat together. Let's talk while we eat and see which one of you will marry him!"

Kailin and Kaina did not sit down.

Kailin said: "Marriage is a major life event and should not be treated as child's play. Young Master Su has a profound cultivation base, which we admire. However, if we are to be truly convinced to marry Young Master Su, relying solely on Father's decree and the level of cultivation base is likely insufficient to convince us, nor is it the martial spirit of our Kaiyue Kingdom."

Su Yang put down his utensils and looked at them with interest: "And what do you two princesses propose?"

"Simple!"

Kaina stepped forward, her amber eyes staring directly at Su Yang, "We sisters want to compete with Young Master Su! We won't compare cultivation base or Spell; we will only compare the purest Physical Body strength! We cannot use even the slightest bit of True Essence for assistance; it must be entirely based on the strength of our Physical Body, muscles, and bones!"

Kailin added: "We will compete in five events. Best of three would be child's play. We will compete in all five. If Young Master Su can defeat both of us sisters, it will prove that Young Master Su is a powerhouse who truly surpasses us in every aspect, and we will naturally obey Father's order and let Young Master Su choose one of us as a wife."

Her tone shifted, and a hint of cunning flashed in her eyes: "But if Young Master Su only wins against one of us, or loses to either one of us in any single event, it will be considered that Young Master Su failed to defeat both of us simultaneously. Given Young Master Su's status and strength, if you cannot completely defeat us two Golden Core young women, then this marriage... I'm afraid it would be hard to convince anyone, and Young Master Su should voluntarily give up. How about it?"

These terms were truly tricky.

With the two of them joining forces, if Su Yang lost to even one of them in any event, he would lose.

It was clearly an attempt to use their advantage in strength and their proficiency in different strength-based events to create difficulties for Su Yang.

Upon hearing this, Kaidun III furrowed his thick brows: "Nonsense! Brother Su is a high-level practitioner of the Dao; how can he compete with you in brute force? Besides, you sisters were born with Divine Power and nourished by the Spiritual Vein; this competition is inherently unfair! Brother Su, pay them no mind!"

Kaidun III truly wanted to marry his daughters to Su Yang!

He knew best how monstrous the strength of his two daughters was—it was monster-level strength that allowed them to tear apart wild beasts and shatter giant rocks with their fists since childhood.

Su Yang was strong, but he clearly was not a Body Cultivator. If they were just comparing raw strength, I'm afraid...

Su Yang, however, smiled and waved his hand: "It is fine. Since the two princesses have proposed this competition, I, Su, will accept it. If I dare not even accept this competition, then I truly have no qualification to marry the princesses. Which five events will we compete in? When and where?"

Seeing Su Yang agree so readily, the two princesses were taken aback.

This guy, so confident?

Hmph!

Just the arrogance of a Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator!

In terms of Immortal Spells and Daoist Magic, they were certainly no match for him, but when it came to strength, they had plenty!

Kaina said: "You will naturally know what we are competing in when the time comes! Where we compete shouldn't affect Young Master Su's performance, right? In any case, the competition will be in three days! Does Young Master Su dare?"

"Very well, it is a deal." Su Yang nodded. Since they wouldn't say, he wouldn't ask.

Seeing that Su Yang had agreed, Kaidun III could not object further and could only warn him: "Brother Su, do not be careless. These two girls of mine were born at the core of a Spiritual Vein. Their first breath was the most concentrated Spirit Stone essence. Their strength... is extraordinary; when they go all out, it is terrifying!"

Su Yang smiled: "Thank you for the reminder, Your Majesty, I am aware."

Well, this Kaidun III really wanted to marry his daughters to him!

This father-in-law is truly interesting!

Seeing that their goal had been achieved, the two princesses did not stay any longer. They bowed, took their leave, and hurried off to prepare.

They had deliberately not mentioned that they wanted to hold a public competition, knowing that if they said it beforehand, their father would be alerted and would not allow them to hold a public competition.

Now that Su Yang had agreed, they could spread the news privately.

Under their intentional arrangement, the news of the two princesses' martial arts competition for marriage quickly spread throughout the entire Gangyan City!

This news instantly ignited the martial capital of the Kaiyue Empire.

The Princesses want to compete with a high-level Daoist practitioner in pure strength?

And it's the Physical Body strength that the people of Kaiyue admire the most?

Plus, it's the two princesses joining forces against one person? Such explosive news made the whole city boil over! People spread the word to one another, eagerly awaiting the grand event in three days.

...

Three days passed in the blink of an eye.

On this day, in the center of Gangyan City, the giant martial arts arena, which could accommodate one hundred thousand people, was packed with people, and not a single seat was empty.

Even the surrounding streets and rooftops were filled with enthusiastic citizens.

Kaidun III sat on the high viewing platform with his civil and military officials.

At this moment, Kaidun III's face was full of helplessness, having been outmaneuvered by his two daughters.

He had intended to arrange for them to compete with Su Yang inside the palace, but before he could make the arrangements, the news that the two princesses were going to compete with Su Yang in the martial arts arena had already spread throughout the entire capital.

Coupled with the fact that the two of them insisted on a public competition, otherwise they would make Su Yang directly concede, he was forced to accept this competition that should not have been public.

Kaidun III was very rough, but his shrewdness was definitely not inferior to any emperor in a high position.

How could he not know that this was his two daughters' idea?

Now he could only hope that Su Yang would win the competition. Otherwise, with so many subjects watching, if he still married his daughters to Su Yang, it would likely cause quite a bit of controversy.

The women brought by Su Yang were also arranged in the VIP seats.

Since there were many sisters, they didn't mind having one more sister now.

They just wanted to know which one of the two would eventually become their sister.

Would it be the red-haired Kaina?

Or the silver-haired Kailin?

In the arena.

The two princesses had already appeared.

Kaina wore a fiery red martial arts outfit, her ponytail flying, looking heroic and spirited.

Kailin was in profound black, her silver hair neat, as steady as a mountain.

They waved to the surroundings, drawing waves of cheers.

Su Yang, in a green robe, walked calmly into the arena and stood opposite the two princesses.

Su Yang was not the muscular type of man admired by the Kaiyue Empire; although he had muscles, they were normal muscles, whereas the men of the Kaiyue Empire had muscles that looked like bodybuilders.

In the minds of the Kaiyue people, the bigger the muscles, the more strength one had, so when Su Yang took the field, it immediately sparked quite a bit of whispering and skeptical booing in the audience.

"We are only comparing strength today, right?"

"That's right! If it were comparing Spell, this Cultivator might be able to beat the two princesses, but comparing strength, tsk tsk tsk, I'm afraid he will lose miserably."

"The two princesses have had Divine Power since childhood; it will be hard for him to win."

"The two princesses defeating a high-level Cultivator—this will definitely be a wonderful story, the pride of Kaiyue!"

The discussion grew louder and louder, and the anticipation of over one hundred thousand people became increasingly intense...

"Next, the competition is about to begin!!!"

A Captain of the Guard served as the referee and walked onto the field.
