Dragon's Origin

"Did you see clearly?" In the Imperial Study, the Emperor was present, as were Chief Steward Li and Steward Zhou. It was Steward Zhou who asked the question, directed at Eunuch Shen, who had just returned from the Royal Grand Theatre.

"Though I am old, my eyesight is still sharp." Eunuch Shen kept his head lowered towards the Emperor, not glancing at Chief Steward Li or Steward Zhou. He knew that Steward Zhou wasn't actually doubting him, but rather asking on behalf of the Emperor, judging by the deep furrow in the Emperor's brow.

"He was a nobody when he went in, and he was already at the first level of the first realm when he came out?" The Emperor spoke himself this time, his face full of disbelief, as if needing to confirm it himself.

"This servant swears to the heavens, I absolutely would not be mistaken." Eunuch Shen's tone changed instantly when addressing the Emperor, becoming respectful and not daring to be even slightly negligent.

The Emperor and the three Grand Masters were aware of Wang Sheng's cultivation drop. The last time the three Grand Masters followed Wang Sheng into the Thousand Absolutes Land, they didn't stay long, but after coming out, they spent a good one or two months recuperating. Each of them showed signs of a slight drop in cultivation at that time.

Keep in mind that the three Grand Masters were at the peak of the Legendary Realm. Of course, at that time they thought that was the peak, but later they realized they were far from it.

Even experts in the Legendary Realm experienced a drop in cultivation, so how could Wang Sheng, at most in the sixth or seventh level of the first realm, be unscathed? The previous times were probably because the time was short, so the drop wasn't so severe. Otherwise, how could Wang Sheng have been frantically eating hundreds of Creation Pills for a while? He must have been trying to forcibly use the Creation Pills to improve his cultivation and cover up the fact that his realm was dropping.

This time, he definitely couldn't hide it. The stay was too long, causing his cultivation to drop to the point where his body couldn't handle the medicinal power of the Creation Pills, and he didn't even dare to eat them anymore. As soon as he returned, he closed his doors to guests. Besides being at a low cultivation level and guarding against surprise attacks, what other reason could there be?

His cultivation had dropped to a nobody, truly terrible! It seems that one cannot casually send experts below the Legendary Realm into the core of the Thousand Absolutes Land in the future. The royal family is well aware of how much benefit there is after going in once, so there must be a more reliable way to train experts.

However, Wang Sheng went from a nobody to the first level of the first realm in just one concert. Was this due to Wang Sheng's recuperation over the past few days, or was it due to the concert?

"Among the women secretly observed these past few months, more than twenty showed obvious differences when they came out at night." Eunuch Shen sighed and revealed the other abnormalities he had seen: "I didn't see how they were when they went in, but a few of them were indeed different from the previous days when they came out. Especially that Rose, her cultivation improved by leaps and bounds."

"Listening to music has such benefits?" The Emperor couldn't help but be a little stunned. After a long while, he laughed and said, "If that's the case, then we might as well go and appreciate it carefully when the time comes. Anyway, we can't miss out on such a good thing."

That night, just as the Emperor and the three Grand Masters were studying whether concerts were beneficial to cultivation, the Imperial Guards who were on duty that day went home after their shift and spread the news about the breathtakingly beautiful women they had seen.

The beauties collected by the Duke of Ever Victorious, wearing beautiful clothes they had never seen before, exuding various styles and temperaments they had never imagined, gracefully walking into the Grand Theatre from the carriages, were scenes that haunted countless people's dreams.

Those beautiful clothes seemed a bit revealing, but those beauties gave people an unprecedented sense of nobility. They were sexy, but without a trace of vulgarity. Any one of them was like a noble lady high above, making people wish they could prostrate themselves at their feet.

Wang Sheng alone actually possessed so many top-quality beauties! Everyone gnashed their teeth and hated him when they talked about it, but everyone knew that they weren't hating, but rather envying. They envied Wang Sheng for having such good fortune with women, envied everything Wang Sheng possessed.

The glimpse they caught left such a deep impression that even after returning home and seeing their own women, these guys' first reaction was to compare their own women with those noble ladies, and then directly draw a depressing conclusion.

The news inevitably spread, so many women learned that night about the beauties collected by the Duke of Ever Victorious, wearing incomparably beautiful clothes, with elegant temperament and sexy and charming figures, all of which were sources of envy, jealousy, and hatred for all women.

Countless socialites and noble ladies were thinking about one thing, which was to go to Runzi Workshop tomorrow and ask what those so-called beautiful clothes were all about. Even Rose and the others didn't know that they already had the first batch of potential customers without realizing it.

Wang Sheng left with Master Yu, of course, accompanied by Mei'er and Old Taoist Lingxu. Along the way, Wang Sheng praised Master Yu to the skies, his thumbs never leaving their upright position. He especially praised Master Yu's adaptations, extolling them to the highest degree.

Mei'er had long been shocked by the band's perfect performance and hadn't fully recovered from that shock even at this moment. Listening to Wang Sheng's words of praise for Master Yu, Mei'er nodded不停不停.

Only Old Taoist Lingxu looked indifferent, but in his heart, he also nodded frequently. He had never imagined that just a combination of musicians and qin players could make those few songs he had heard before so wonderful. As for those composed by Wang Sheng, they were even more wonderful beyond compare.

Master Yu was not a vulgar person either, chasing Wang Sheng to ask him to point out the flaws in this performance. Wang Sheng was not polite, and did not hide anything he heard or felt, pointing them out one by one. Fortunately, they were all minor problems that could be improved with slight adjustments, without the need for major changes.

"Then in three days, a formal performance will be held." After discussing, Wang Sheng also set a time for Master Yu: "At that time, I will invite the Emperor, Empress, and some royals to attend, and there will be no shortage of important ministers from all parties. Master, you must not make any mistakes."

The matter concerned the identity of an artist recognized by the Emperor and the court, which was the best opportunity to get rid of the status of craftsman and musician. How could Master Yu not pay attention to it? He directly guaranteed Wang Sheng that there would be no problems. Starting tomorrow, he and the band members would live in the Grand Theatre, practicing every day until it was more perfect.

"After you advanced today, what do you mean by insufficient Yin energy?" After returning to the Duke's mansion, when there were no outsiders, Old Taoist Lingxu asked Wang Sheng.
