The so-called Yu Moon Pavilion was not just an ordinary building. Rather, it was a tower of graceful gardens. There were rock gardens, flowing streams, trees, flowers, and pavilions everywhere. Walking in here, it was as if there would be brand new scenery unfolding before one's eyes every 10 steps. It was an extremely beautiful place.

Anyone would feel rejuvenated the moment they stepped in here, their mood naturally calming down.

The first floor consisted of a garden with over 10 buildings littered here and there. Each of the buildings was a perfect place to spend one's time indulging in drink and pleasure. All sorts of pleasures were available on this floor, such as food, drinks, prost.i.tution, and gambling.

The place was currently bustling with noise and excitement. The first floor had the Yu Moon Pavilion's cheapest services, but it was still not a place ordinary people could enter.

As for the second floor, the sceneries were even more exquisite. The women were even prettier than the ones on the first floor, and none of them were ordinary. They were all cultivators, and with them serving as this floor's hostesses, any customers qualified to enter would be satisfied with their service. Generally, only the extremely rich and powerful would dare enter the second floor.

The third floor was considered a private area, and n.o.body could enter without an invitation from the Yu Clan. In other words, this was some sort of VIP floor for their honored guests. Like the other young geniuses, Xiang Shaoyun's goal was to enter the third floor. But it wouldn't be easy for them. They needed to get through a test before they would be allowed entry.

A middle-aged man was standing on the path leading to the third floor. Looking at the group of youths standing before him, he said, ”To enter the third floor, you need to first report your names to me. Then, you need to undergo our test. Only the best 50 will be allowed entry. Everyone else shall not enter.”

Only 30 people would be ultimately chosen to enter the Devil Domain with the Holy Maiden candidate. This was the first round of selection where 50 would be selected. The final selection would be held on the third floor where the final 30 would be selected.

Xiang Shaoyun had not expected that there would be so many steps. He found it rather troublesome and didn't really want to do it, but when he thought of how his life was now in Ugly Gambler's hands, he had no choice but to partic.i.p.ate. After reporting his name and age, he was given a jade plate with his name written on it.

After the over 100 youths all completed their registrations, the middle-aged man declared, ”Get ready. The 50 people that can remain standing under my suppression the longest will be allowed to remain.”

Right after that announcement, a boundless presence surged out of the middle-aged man and pressed down on all the youths. This middle-aged man was actually a Dragon Ascension Realm expert. In fact, he was not an ordinary Dragon Ascension Realm expert, as he had reached the late stage.

His presence pressed down on everyone at exactly the same time, and it was not a feat an ordinary Dragon Ascension Realm cultivator could pull off. The youths here immediately felt like a ma.s.sive boulder was suddenly weighing down on them, causing them to bend down involuntarily. The weaker ones even spat blood and fainted straight away.

Xiang Shaoyun also felt the same, and he nearly collapsed to the ground from the weight. Fortunately, he was not an ordinary King. Under the pressure, his nine stars stirred and erupted with power, helping him withstand the Emperor's presence.

This Emperor had only utilized about 10 percent of his strength, but just this 10 percent strength was already very difficult for peak Kings to withstand. It was a test of a King's cultivation base and willpower.

A King that couldn't even withstand a presence like this would not be qualified to become their son-in-law. The son-in-law candidates would be required to enter the Devil Domain and do battle there. Thus, they were only looking for those who were at least a peak King.
