The Chaos Dragon Prince

Chapter 239 - Shocking News

The luxurious hidden chamber fell into momentary silence. 

Cain, Kali, and Amber all had various thoughts swirling their minds, trying to calmly process these rapid changes of events. 

However, it didn't take long for Kali to break out of her stupor. She loudly clapped her hands, gaining Cain and Amber's attention, causing them to look in at her eagerly smiling face.

"Truly, could we ask for a better welcoming. Just a day back, and we will get thrust right into the action! If I had to guess, grandmother is most likely setting us up to take the Dragon Altar Test."

"Oh? Is this a test of talent?" Cain curiously asked, unable to suppress the increasing excited boiling in his blood. With each second he spends here, the more of his fervent desires to suppress his fellow siblings' amplifies. 

Kali nodded, pumping her fist while saying, "Indeed it is. Basically, when we Dragons reach at least the Profound Soul Realm, the Emperor and Ancestors will set up this Martial Test. Apparently, the Profound Soul Realm is an excellent foundation to test the true aptitude of a Martial Cultivator. This is where the latent power of our Soul becomes unleashed, so thinking about it, this would be a prime opportunity. "

Suddenly, Kali directed her gaze towards Amber. She curled her brows at her and said, "As for you…well, you would need to take this test as well…I think. Basically, the Dragon Mark inside you count you as a special kind of Dragon. Just without our direct blood or genes. Still, your Soul is more similar to a Dragon than any other ordinary species."

"Oh…haah…Is that right?" Amber leaked a slightly tired sigh, her smile turning a bit wry. "In the end, I did resolve myself step out of my comfort zone. I will need to do this in any case if I want to explore the Spiritual Path. But fair warning, I won't go any near as crazy as you two. Just enough to avoid trouble."

"Hmph. Wonderful fighting spirit as always." Kali sarcastically remarked, rolling her eyes at Amber's still causal natural. 

Cain simply gave Amber's shoulder a reassuring squeeze and spoke in a gentle tone. "Even if you were to be lazy, your results certainly won't be bad. Grandmother's reaction was too much for us to downplay. Alright, until grandmother comes back, let's relax and explore this chamber. Better to ease in a peaceful state of mind than to become agitated, right?"

As he spoke, Cain leveled his sights purely on Kali, knowing that she has the desire to already seek trouble with their siblings. 

Until they can sufficiently prove themselves, meeting with them would be more troublesome than anything.

"Yea, yea. I understand it. And I can say it would be far more satisfying to crush their mental image of us through action before we talk to anything." 

Kali easily relented. Her heart indeed burns with desires, but her mind is naturally accustomed to biding her time until it was the perfect time to strike. 

Then, with the remaining amount of time, the trio slowly explored Shi Wei's hidden chamber.

Looking over it now, just this chamber alone was massively spacious, at least 6,000 square feet in length. Situated all around the room were endless text, exotic items, and scrolls for their choosing. 

A glint shone in each of their eyes. They all clearly know the might of intelligence is one of the most crucial aspects in this world. 

… 

"Man…I still can't believe this? Are we really going over this? It seems like some kind of boring prank. But then again…who would waste their time pranking the sixth princess and seventh prince?" 

"To be fair, fifth princess Dulong was always the most mischievous out of the Royal Children. Maybe this is a ploy by here? But…even I can't believe that. Not when this was ordered by the supreme Ancestors and His Majesty."

"Whatever this is, I hope it won't be a massive waste of time and embarrassment." 

Throughout the grand halls of the Imperial Palace, swarms of younger generations Dragons walk together, casually conversing with each other.

At this moment, many Dragons' emotions were in a state of chaotic upheaval. 

A day has quickly passed since Cain's group's return, and a chaotic storm of news shook the Huang Dragon Imperial Palace.

Many when hearing this news wore expressions of incredulous disbelief, burning intrigue, and even gazes of disdain. 

The news was that their sixth princess and seventh prince can now cultivate and are taking the Dragon Altar test today!

If this news came from even the Crown Prince's mouth, nobody would dare to believe it. 

Practically, everyone on the Thunderous Collision Planet is keenly aware of Cain and Kali's mysterious zero aptitude case. And everyone treated these siblings as if they didn't exist for numerous years. 

After all, if they couldn't cultivate any paths, just were they good for? 

In their merciless society, only absolute strength matters in the long wall.

Being a Mortal is the equivalent of being an ant in most God Galaxies cultivators' eyes. This is why this news caused nearly all Dragons to hiddenly doubt it. 

How could, after 18 years, Cain and Kali could ever achieve cultivation?

Everyone is also keenly aware that the best medical World Spirit Masters continually inspected Cain and Kali only to come up with zero explanation. 

These medical World Spirit Masters are the best of the best on their Planet. And if even they couldn't accurately diagnose Cain and Kali, then who can? 

Of course, because this news was released by the Ancient Dragon Emperors, everyone, from younger, senior, and even Elders, had to obey.

They all must witness the proper testing of the other direct descendent children! 

Many couldn't help but see this as a joke. Their predisposition basis couldn't disappear in just a day, and nobody had seen the siblings in two months.

With the odds so heavily low, many were expecting to become utterly disappointed after this test. 

Of course, not everyone felt overwhelming disdain or expectations for failure. 

Some wanted to see another rise of Royal geniuses! 

"It really would be good if they both are geniuses. It never hurts to have an overflow of talent than an oasis of zero talent. We can probably learn from them."

"More than just learning, they could potentially be a huge drive into suppressing the Ancient Phoenixes! Seriously, their claws are growing to bigger nowadays."

"This couldn't be more right. I heard from another batch that they were challenged by the Phoenixes during a mission and were promptly defeated. Then, they dare to have the balls to say regular Dragons that are far beneath them! Truly, I'm hoping for some miracles!"

In the Martial Path, sometimes humiliation can become a fate worse than death for some. This can directly affect one's reputation, causing them to fall into and dangerous position by their weak status.

And for a while now, the Ancient Pheonix Holy Lands continually suppressed the Huang Dragons. 

Out of the younger generation, the Ancient Pheonxies win far more often. The number of losses and humiliation was unbearable for some Huang Dragons.

It was as if these Pheonxies were directly tarnishing the Martial Heart of a Dragon! They truly wanted to trample all over their prestigious dignity that is heavily embedded deep within their Souls!

But without sufficient strength to beat the Pheonxies, there was nothing they could do. Thus, many Huang Dragons held high hopes that the sixth princess and seventh prince could bring some sort of miracle. 

Others, when hearing this news, remained mostly indifferent. 

These Dragons didn't care whether or not Cain and Kali were extreme geniuses of this generation. They all held their own pride to crush through any challenge, all on their own strength.

This was the pride of their Martial Hearts. 

And at this time, inside one of the Royal Chamber of the direct Dragon descendants, Huang Dai and Xun met with each other. 

Plastering their faces were complicated expressions. Within their eyes, mixes of emotions continually swirled about, showcasing puzzlement, curiosity, envy, greed, and a bit of hesitation.

The news of Cain and Kali affected them more than most other Huang Dragons. This was a plan they had been brewing for quite some time coming into fruition, and neither had any clear feelings on it.

Huang Dai lightly sighed, being the first to say, "Now that we can interact with them, just how should we go about it? We undoubtedly need those Dragon Charms, but since they can cultivate, it would be far harder to just causally interact with them."

A small period of silence fell between them as Huang Xun was still deep into contemplation. She was even using her Soul's Core to accelerate her thoughts, rapidly trying to see even the tiniest path of victory.

Numerous ideas continually flashed through her mind. And after only a few moments, Huang Xun stopped on one that seemed feasible enough to go through.

She calmly said, "The main part of our plans will now have to rely on just how well they will perform during the test. If they can get anything under the 7th step, we will have an easier time. 8th step is Zilong's tier, and we will have significant troubles. Above that, we will have to directly change our plans entirely."

"Ah, so you do have something in mind." Huang Dai visibly relaxed. "Truthfully, should we worry that hard if they can even achieve the 7th step? I mean, we just barely managed to achieve half of the 7th step, and we were Innate Lords at that time. How long have those two been cultivating? At most, two months, right? Since they can take the test, they must've used our resources on whatever Lower Realm planet, boosting straight towards the Profound Soul Realm. With such shaky foundations, how could their results ever come close to being decent?"

An air of arrogance leaked between both Huang Dai and Xun. Though they certainly do look down on both Cain and Kali, the main reason for their arrogance had to do with the difficulty of the Dragon Altar Test.

Both of them are extreme geniuses who cultivated their foundations to massive degrees. They both hold tremendously dense Qi energy and Law essence and have incredibly solid Inner Worlds.

By the time they were in the Innate Lord Realm, their cultivation truly blossomed, showcasing talents that vastly surpass a majority of their Dragon Siblings. 

It got to a point where they both are considered the sixth and seventh most talented out of the whole younger generation! 

And this wasn't out of some small pool of numbers.

In the God Galaxies, because of Martial Cultivators massively enhanced vitality, the number of descendants that can be born is at an extraordinary amount. Furthermore, these descendants will similarly go on to live incredibly long lives, birthing even more descendants.

From this cycle, the sheer number of lifeforms inhabiting the entire God Galaxy Realm can be said to be utterly boundless! 

Even though the Huang Dragon Imperial Family is separated from the other Huang Dragon Branches, their numbers easily exceed hundreds of thousands!

Out of these hundreds of thousands, there were bound to be geniuses born in and outside the Imperial Family with talent that can easily sweep through weaker God Galaxies realms.

And yet, out of this massively large pool, Huang Dai and Xun can firmly stand above them all, being at the upper echelons of young elites. 

When considering all of this, it was only natural they both found it hard to believe Cain and Kali could even come close to matching an average Huang Dragon talent.

Moreover, the mystery surrounding their sudden cultivation gain only added fuel to this fire. 

If they could possibly be highly talented, why would their cultivation wait until now to show itself?

Plus, why even go into hiding in the first place? 

Unless…their new cultivation aptitude still isn't good at all! 

As she slowly understood this, Huang Xun felt a small amount of tension leave her body.

Still, she didn't get too comfortable as she earnestly said, "Remember, while this situation does look favorably for us, we can't simply rule out all other possibilities. We should have backup plans considered just in case those two do pull out something unexpected."

"Heh. Alright, alright. I seriously doubt it, however." Huang Dai confidently snorted. 

Huang Xun didn't waste any more time, moving from her desk while putting away her black sword and said, 

"Come on. Let's just what our younger siblings can show us. Not just us, even our siblings will feel some curiosity to come over and watch.. At the very least, it will be an intriguing event."
