The Crazy Princess Returns and Becomes the First Beast Tamer

"The winner of the second competition is Ji Lingran from Beili Imperial Capital College."

Ji Lingran stood on the field, her body swaying. The overloaded spiritual power made her almost faint.

Baili Xian's old injury was injured during the battle, and he lost to Ji Lingran by a hair's breadth.

"The four-college competition has come to a successful conclusion after this battle. Let us congratulate the final winners. First place, Di Yunli from Imperial Capital College. Second place, Xi Yan from Canghai College. Third place, Ji Lingran from Imperial Capital College."

"Next, let's cheer for the top three winners of this four-college competition!"

The competition among the four colleges came to an end amid cheers.

The name of Emperor Yunli was completely known in the four academies. Not only that, but also several major immortal cultivation forces in Gengshi Continent, such as Yundan Pavilion, Tianfu Auction House, and Fuxian Academy, also had the legend of Emperor Yunli from then on.

As for the prizes for the top three, Di Yunli received a top-grade magical instrument, Qiankun Ding, and two mid-grade magical instruments, Earth-Splitting Axe and Seven-Star Sword, as well as an additional 100,000 Spirit Stones.

Except for the Qiankun Ding that she liked, Di Yunli gave the other two to Nanhe, asking him to reward them to those who are suitable to use the two magic weapons or to the disciples who entered the immortal tomb together this time.

This move, on the one hand, can repay Nanhe for his protection several times and make a small contribution to the Imperial Capital Academy. On the other hand, it can also improve the combat effectiveness of fellow disciples and prepare for the trip to the Immortal Tomb.

After all, who knows what kind of situation they will encounter in the immortal tomb.

As for which two magic weapons Xi Yan, the second place winner, got, Di Yunli didn't care, because she didn't even care about the middle-grade magic weapons.

Ji Lingran also got a mid-level magic weapon, the Phantom Boots, which could greatly increase her speed. When used in conjunction with the Seven Killing Formation, it greatly shortened the time it took her to set up the formation.

"Uncle, Brother Li Xuan."

Outside Sixiang City, Di Yunli and others were seeing them off.

"Don't forget what I entrusted to you. You must strengthen the border defenses. This time, Xi Cang suffered such a big loss from me. A cornered dog will jump over the wall. What's more, behind Canghai Academy, there are means to create spirit beasts and force them to merge with humans."

"Don't worry, Li'er. With your uncle here, the border is safe. It's just about your mother's matter..."

"Uncle, don't worry. Li'er is determined to win this trip to the Immortal Tomb."

"Okay." Nangong Xiong's eyes were filled with reluctance and heartache, "I'm sorry to have let my Li'er suffer. This is what my uncle should have done. The journey to the Immortal Tomb will be dangerous. Li'er must put her own safety first."

"Otherwise, uncle will not be able to forgive himself, nor explain to your mother. Do you understand?" The pain in his eyes turned into tears, but he forced himself to hold them back, making his eyes red.

"Okay, Li'er will go to see her uncle, grandmother, and mother safely."

"Yeah, yeah." Nangong Xiong didn't dare to say anything more. The more he spoke, the more reluctant he was to let Di Yunli, such a small body, take such a big risk.

He turned around and motioned Li Xuan to say goodbye to Di Yunli.

Li Xuan came to Di Yunli and asked, "Can I call you Li'er?"

"You are Yunli's sworn brother, and this is not the court, so of course you can." Di Yunli knew that Li Xuan had been looking for her for fifteen years. Although they had never met, fifteen years of emotions were involved, and fifteen years of waiting, every minute and every second counted.

"Brother." Li Xuan smiled bitterly, "Alright, alright."

Protecting her as her sworn brother and silently supporting her from behind is the closest way he can get to her.

"During the Four-Academy Competition, you made many plans for Beili and were injured several times. Leave the rest to me. I only hope that you can take care of your body and not get the answers you want at the cost of getting injured. Okay?"

In the last match, Di Yunli deliberately let the opponent win in order to test the combat effectiveness of the fake beasts. Li Xuan saw through it at a glance. He just felt sorry for her. Her seemingly weak shoulders carried the responsibility of the entire family and country.

"it is good."

Di Yunli smiled and responded, "You should also pay attention to your safety in the capital to prevent Xi Cang from assassinating you."

"Don't worry, you left most of the Imperial Guards for me. It's fine."

"Ah."

Having said all these, Li Xuan was reluctant but still left with Nangong Xiong.

Beili Capital was his battlefield. Only there did he feel that he was still useful and the strongest support behind her.

"Your Majesty." Xiao Bailin also came over.

"I will leave Baili Xian to you. I have no regrets for being able to see the beauty who has won the first place today."

"I don't know when we will meet again." Xiao Bailian took out a small pot of flowers from his sleeve like a magic trick. "May Her Majesty always be like this flower, blooming freely and always having such a vibrant vitality."

Di Yunli took the pot of flowers. The flowers looked more like white lily of the valley, pure as if they were not of this world.

"Thanks."

"Your Majesty, I spent a long time picking this. You must take good care of it. I hope I can see it again next time we meet."

"Don't worry, I will not let it die." Di Yunli seemed to be answering this sentence, but also seemed to be answering what Xiao Bailan did not say.

The two parted with laughter, but hidden beneath the smile in Xiao Bailian's eyes was a faint sadness of parting.

He left without looking back. He knew from the beginning that they were the rulers of two countries and there was no possibility of marriage. Now he knew even more that Di Yunli's future path was not one he could walk hand in hand with.

He seems cynical and playboy, but in fact he is very rational.

only……

It's just that emotions and feelings are hard to cover up no matter how rational you are. Only by desperately admonishing yourself can you stop the impossible extravagant hopes in your heart.

When Sixiang City was getting farther and farther away behind him and was about to disappear, he couldn't resist the impulse and turned back.

Unfortunately, all that was left in his eyes was loss, frustration, and reluctance.

It turned out that the Four Symbols City had long been out of sight from here. With his level of cultivation, how could he see the beautiful figure far away in the Four Symbols City?

That evening, at the Imperial Capital College.

The whole academy was as bright as day, and the academy was filled with a lively atmosphere, celebrating the great victory of Imperial Capital College and winning two of the top three places.

Di Yunli and Ji Lingran were naturally in the center of the crowd, celebrating with everyone.

At Xuanye's residence, on a secluded mountain peak, some excited shouts could still be heard.

He did not attend the celebration at the Imperial Capital Academy, but was busy with something else. One thing was what he promised Di Yunli.

Xuanye just waved his sleeves, and an oval space appeared out of thin air in front of him.

Opposite him, in a magnificent hall filled with an ethereal aura, a man who looked exactly like him seemed to be handling government affairs.

"Emperor."

The man hurriedly changed his appearance, now an old man with gray hair, long beard and an immortal look.

"No need to salute, just do something for me."

"Emperor, please give your orders."

"Find an immortal who can refine weapons, preferably one who has ascended to the upper realm within a thousand years."

"Ah? Is the Emperor going to refine a weapon? This old minister..."

"Just do as you are told."

"Old minister, I obey."
