New Return of the Pearl: The Group's Pet Swallow Flies

It seems that even the emperor himself could not determine exactly who could become the true leader of the martial arts world at that time. But even so, he still wrote down this supreme honor without hesitation. Presumably, his original intention was to hope that the person holding this token would be respected and admired by the world.

Moreover, the profound meaning of this token goes far beyond that. It can not only be used to dispatch and command various heroes in the world, but even many officials and soldiers in the court must obey the orders of the holder of the token.

The audience was crowded and noisy. People from all the major martial arts sects and the many onlookers were all dumbfounded and shocked. Who would have thought that for this martial arts conference held by the martial arts, the emperor of the palace, who always kept aloof from the affairs of the martial arts, would personally write the theme for the martial arts alliance and carefully create such a dazzling golden token!

All the martial artists who had shown their skills on the stage were now regretting the golden imperial token that symbolized supreme glory. They beat their chests and stamped their feet. They thought to themselves, "If I had been more powerful at that time, how great it would have been to win the championship! That way, I would have won the favor and appreciation of the emperor!"

At the same time, many people looked at the coveted golden token and couldn't help but secretly smack their lips, with extreme envy in their eyes. However, there were also many gamblers who lost everything in this event and even went bankrupt. Seeing the tempting token, they couldn't help but have all kinds of dark and evil thoughts in their hearts. Unfortunately, they knew that they were not strong enough and were no match for the opponent. Even if they were unwilling, they could only curse secretly in their hearts and let the dark emotions in their hearts continue to twist, but in the end they could do nothing.

On the stage, several clan leaders also looked at each other in astonishment. Obviously, they were also caught off guard by the fact that His Majesty bestowed the imperial token on the leader of the martial arts world, and they found it incredible.

Only Mr. Lin, who was standing aside, had a thoughtful look on his face, and then gently stroked his beard, as if he had known the inside story for a long time. It turned out that this seemingly ordinary Mr. Lin actually knew clearly that the one standing on the stage and receiving everyone's attention was one of the most favored princesses of the current emperor - Princess Huanzhu! If the people present knew her true identity, I'm afraid they would be so surprised that they couldn't close their mouths, or even drop their jaws!

He smiled slightly, his face filled with gentleness and kindness, then slowly walked down the platform and stood in front of Xiaoyanzi. With a focused and sincere look in his eyes, he whispered to Xiaoyanzi, "Congratulations."

When Xiaoyanzi heard his congratulations, she tilted her head playfully towards him, showing a smile as bright as a flower, and responded, "Congratulations, I'm happy for you." Her lively eyes and lovely appearance made people love her.

Old Master Lin laughed out loud at her cute appearance. He stroked his beard, looked around at the people gathered around him, and said loudly: "My fellow heroes, I am the leader of the last martial arts conference. I have summoned you to participate in this grand martial arts conference for a reason!

Nowadays, Japanese pirates are rampant along the coast, burning, killing, looting and committing all kinds of evil, and the people are suffering. Many Japanese pirates are even so bold that they sneak into our Qing territory, disguised as ordinary people, and think of ways to harm our compatriots.

Therefore, we are holding a martial arts conference here to select a person with both talent and virtue as well as strong martial arts skills to serve as the new leader of the martial arts world, to lead the disciples of our major martial arts sects to work together to defeat those crazy Japanese pirates, and to restore peace and tranquility to our coastal areas and the entire martial arts world!"

At this point, Mr. Lin paused, then raised his voice and continued, "After several days of intense and brutal competitions, the one who finally stood out was none other than the chivalrous lady Xiaoyanzi in front of us! Her martial arts are so superb that they are amazing. I'm sure everyone present has witnessed these exciting competitions in the past few days."

After a short pause, Mr. Lin said no more, but solemnly announced again: "Now, I officially announce that the new leader of the martial arts world is the chivalrous lady Xiaoyanzi! From now on, please let her lead the outstanding disciples of various sects in our martial arts world to jointly resist foreign aggression and defend our country! At the same time, we also hope that all sects can cooperate with each other and make progress together! Now, please welcome the new leader of the martial arts world to come on stage and speak with warm applause!"

As soon as she finished speaking, thunderous applause broke out from the audience, which lasted for a long time. Everyone looked at Xiaoyanzi eagerly, waiting for her to give her speech.

Xiaoyanzi stood gracefully beside Mr. Lin, attracting attention like a light swallow. At this moment, she was facing the surging gazes of nearly a hundred people from the entire Yunzhou City. In the audience, there were not only her familiar and intimate relatives and friends, but also various complex and intertwined eyes.

Some eyes were full of encouragement and support, as if telling her to move forward bravely; some eyes showed sincere admiration, appreciating her courage; some eyes were full of endless love, which was the warmest care given to her by her relatives and friends; and some eyes revealed pride, proud of her outstanding performance. However, there were also some eyes with deep doubts, as if they doubted whether she could be competent for the task at hand.

Facing so many eyes, Xiaoyanzi felt an indescribable power in her heart. Thinking back to her past life, it was simply a nightmare of being displaced, helpless and homeless.

At that time, she was just an orphan wandering around, and she barely grew up after going through countless hardships. She made a living by the meager income from street performances, and her hope for life was supported by her passion.

It was also by chance that she met the kind and gentle Ziwei, and decided to help her friend without hesitation. Unexpectedly, the gears of fate turned, and a series of unexpected things followed. She entered the palace by mistake, and even because of her greed, she turned into a princess that everyone paid attention to.

Looking back on the days after she entered the palace, she had a lot of problems. She often relied on her not-so-excellent kung fu to jump around like a monkey, causing chaos in the palace. Moreover, relying on the emperor's doting and partiality for her, she acted recklessly and mischievously, making everyone in the palace love and feel helpless towards her.
