My sister is Luna

"Distinguished guests, these past few days, Chang'an has been ablaze with lanterns and candles. Her Majesty the Empress has bestowed a special decree to hold a grand banquet with a thousand lanterns, where heroes from all over have gathered. In response to this call, our Chang Le Fang is holding a martial arts competition to celebrate this grand occasion!"

A well-dressed male host walked onto the stage.

"This is a martial arts tournament sponsored by the Heluo Limited Chamber of Commerce. Anyone can participate, and the ultimate prize for the champion is the Famous Blade of Fate and a set of level 5 inscriptions, and even..."

"Our two top performers from Chang Le Fang can even play a solo piece for him!" the host said after a pause.

These words immediately caused an uproar in the audience.

"What?! Level 5 inscriptions?! And a whole set! No wonder it's a great merchant guild. I only have one level 5 inscription, and they just pulled out a whole set, a total of thirty! Is this the difference between people?" Someone was shocked and questioned their life.

Inscriptions are made using magical techniques and are divided into five qualities, from level 1 to level 5. They possess magical power and, when worn, will have a significant effect on strength levels up to level 15. However, they are extremely expensive to make and are something only the wealthy can afford.

This demonstrates the immense financial resources of the Datang Limited Chamber of Commerce.

"No, there's also a solo performance by Yang Yuhuan and Gongsun Li. Am I dreaming?! Hehe..." Someone was lost in a wonderful fantasy, revealing a subtle smile.

"The beautiful women aren't the point. The important thing is the Famous Blade of Fate, okay? That's a divine weapon that can negate a fatal blow from a King Realm expert! It's absolutely essential for saving your life and turning the tide in a desperate situation. I never expected them to use it as a championship prize. What a generous gesture..." A young man in a Taoist robe said to the person next to him with his arms crossed.

"I must win the championship. A set of level 5 runes will greatly improve my strength and level, and I also have the Famous Blade of Destiny..."

The discussions have not stopped, and have only grown more intense.

"Because setting up the arena takes time, the competition will officially begin at 2 PM. Those interested can register and prepare before then." After saying this, the host bowed slightly and stepped off the stage.

Then the stage turned into a foundation, and many workers ran out, carrying various materials, and began to build the arena.

"Are you going?" Shangguan Wan'er asked knowingly, seeing the eager look in Cain's eyes.

"certainly……"

"Is it because of those two beauties?" For some reason, Cain felt that Shangguan Wan'er's gaze was a little cold, which gave him the creeps.

“How could that be? I want the legendary sword, the Blade of Fate, and the inscription,” Cain said firmly.

"I've long heard that inscriptions possess magical power. Look, now I have an opportunity right in front of me. I'm very curious to see how it will enhance my strength."

"And with the legendary sword, the Fate-Slaying Blade, who would complain about having an extra means of survival?"

These are all Cain's honest thoughts. It's like a godsend. He had previously said that his poison skills were difficult to improve, but now the opportunity has come.

As for the beauty performance, consider it an extra. Cain knows that Gongsun Li and Yang Yuhuan are from the Yaotian Organization, so perhaps he can subtly gather some information.

"Are you confident of winning? I've said before that Chang'an is full of hidden talents, and there are definitely many people attracted by this generous prize."

"I'm no pushover either, I've just used up a lot of energy. Maybe I'll even have a lot more sons after this battle," Cain said confidently.

I went directly to the registration office and registered.

"Then I'll look forward to it," Shangguan Wan'er said with a smile.

The arena is under construction now, so there's not much to see. The crowd started to disperse, saying they'd come back once it was finished.

Cain and Shangguan Wan'er watched the departing crowd and decided to go shopping and relax, since the duel wouldn't start until noon.

but……

"Ah! That's Shangguan Zhao!" A girl suddenly screamed when she saw Shangguan Wan'er.

"What?! It's Shangguan Zhao! Ah, Shangguan Zhao, I'm your fan!" This shout triggered a chain reaction, and everyone looked over.

In particular, some girls excitedly surrounded Cain and Shangguan Wan'er.

"Shangguan Zhao, can I get your autograph? Just write it here." One by one, the girls stretched out their slender, fair arms and said excitedly.

When Shangguan Wan'er was dressed as a man, she was called Shangguan Zhao. She was a handsome man who was adored by countless young girls. At the same time, her excellent handwriting and talent further enhanced her fame, leading to the current situation.

"Ah, Shangguan Zhao, I love you!" These were the words of a man, but they were immediately drowned out by the girls.

Surrounded and helpless, Shangguan Wan'er could only fulfill their requests one by one.

"Ahhh! I finally got Shangguan Zhao's autograph! I'm so jealous of them when I get back, hahaha..." The girls said things like that as they gradually left.

"Phew...it's finally over." Shangguan Wan'er breathed a sigh of relief.

"You're really famous! So many people are asking for your autograph. I only watched your performance."

Bored, Cain squatted by the roadside and bought two candied hawthorns. He ate one himself and left the other for Shangguan Wan'er. After watching the fans leave satisfied, he got up and walked over to hand it to her, jokingly remarking that he had been pushed out earlier, which showed how enthusiastic and crazy the fans were.

"Being too famous isn't good either. Just like before, it took so long. I was planning to go shopping, but it seems like we don't have much time left." Shangguan Wan'er took the candied hawthorn, both amused and exasperated.

"Yeah, that's true. Nobody could handle going out like this every day." Cain nodded, still shaken.

After checking the time, they realized that there wasn't much time left. Kain and Shangguan Wan'er, who had originally planned to visit other places, could only have a quick lunch before returning to Chang Le Fang.

Three arenas have been set up here, made of solid rock without railings. Although simple, they are sturdy and solid, since what follows is a real fight, not a performance, and a stage with sufficient capacity is needed.

The crowd began to gather again, standing or sitting about three meters apart around the three arenas, their eyes filled with anticipation and excitement.

"Everyone, I'm sure you've all been waiting for this for a long time. Without further ado, there's only one rule: if your opponent jumps out of the ring, you lose. I hope everyone will stop here. Friendship first, competition second. Now, I declare the martial arts competition open!"

The host said a few words briefly from the audience before getting straight to the topic of the session.

"Bravo!!!" The audience cheered and applauded, excitedly shouting that the moment of excitement was about to arrive.

Looking at the lively and bustling crowd, Cain walked to the participants' waiting area.

Come on, let me see what kind of expert I'll encounter.

Cain stretched his body, which hadn't been in combat for a long time, and his hands were itching to fight.
