"I accept," Emma White whispered, lowering her head.

"Wow!"

"Sister Emma said yes!"

"Congratulations! Congratulations! Congratulations to Brother Xiao, congratulations to Emma!"

Everyone echoed in response.

"I must say, Brother Xiao, you're quite crafty, making such a grand announcement. We definitely need to give congratulatory gifts now. The gifts you just gave to us, we have to return them...haha, just kidding!" Lianshan suddenly joked, as if he had thought of something.

With his words, he took out the gift that Xiao Chong had just given him and brought out another gift from a different spatial ring.

"This is the gift you just gave, Brother Xiao. We definitely cannot accept it now, considering the circumstances. Moreover, this is the congratulatory present from Huayang and me. It's not precious, but we hope you won't despise it!" Lianshan presented both gifts and said.

"This is mine, Brother Xiao, please do not despise it..."

"And me too..."

"Brother Xiao and Sister Emma, you must not refuse..."

The others also presented the earlier gifts as well as new ones.

Lin Yun smiled and presented the previous gifts along with the new ones.

"No, no, I've already given these gifts to you. How can I take them back? Moreover, when I divided those gifts into three parts, keeping one for myself, I already counted your congratulatory gifts! A sum of three to four quintillion spirit crystals is already quite a lot!" Xiao Chong waved his hands with a smile.

Emma White accepting his marriage proposal made him incredibly ecstatic.

"The wealth gained this time is unexpected, and I never planned on keeping it. As for the remaining one, I plan to host a wedding after the Heavenly Principle Fruit competition. I will invite the universe's powerful beings, will not accept any gifts, and will only aim to make the wedding lively. So, you don't need to give any gifts.

Initially, I intended to distribute all these gifts, but due to some reason, I kept a large portion. I just hope you wouldn't mind that," continued Xiao Chong, after pausing and smiling.

During the conversation, Xiao Chong turned to look at Emma White, a flicker of deep affection flashing in his eyes.

Emma and he had known each other for hundreds of thousands of years, and he had kept her waiting for far too long.

He definitely had to compensate her well.

"Brother Xiao, what are you saying..."

"These gifts originally belong to you, Brother Xiao. We've already taken advantage of you..."

Everyone echoed together.

Afterward, everyone insisted on presenting Xiao Chong with their gifts.

This matter was just too significant; they simply couldn't justify not giving him any gifts.

However, Xiao Chong's reasoning was sound.

For his upcoming wedding, he planned to refuse everyone's gifts, and only receive their blessings, all to make the celebration lively.

In the end, Xiao Chong reluctantly accepted some of the cheaper gifts offered by everyone, marking the end to the event.

"At this point, the Heavenly Principle Fruit competition should've already started. We should hurry..." Xiao Chong said, looking towards the direction of the event once things had settled.

"Yes!"

"Let's hurry!"

Everyone nodded, they were all originally on schedule, but recent events had caused them to lose much time.

Whoosh - whoosh -

Everyone returned to the battleship and set off once again.

...

The central region of the star domain, right at the center.

The scene of the Heavenly Principle Fruit competition.

A celestial universe, a titanic tower stood reaching out to the sky where one hardly can see its top or bottom, and was surrounded by a crowd as far as the eye can see.

In the center of the competition area, a hundred thousand arenas were distributed everywhere.

All kinds of powerful members of the human race, as well as some other races that were allowed to participate, were battling on the arenas.

Not far from the hundred thousand arenas, a row of juries was seated in a higher position.

Up in front, about a dozen extraordinary seats were occupied by twenty-odd people, each of whom was a Super Warrior.

Each Super Warrior was a household name in the universe.

A gathering of over twenty Super Warriors elevated the status of the tournament to its peak, making it a grand occasion.

"Look at the judge's panel over there. In the first row, those seats accommodate truly formidable Super Warriors renowned across the universe. In previous Heavenly Principle Fruit contests, at most only a dozen or so Super Warriors participated, and sometimes, there were only a few. This time, however, there are over twenty Super Warriors..."

"Do you know why? Because some important figures have appeared in the Heavenly Principle Fruit contest this time. Notice the few seats on the far left in the first row? The left is considered the most honored spot. In the previous contests, those far-left seats in the first row were always left empty, reserved for some ultra-Super Warriors.

Now, however, they are occupied; they're reputed to be the ultra-powerful beings in the entire universe, entities even Super Warriors would present themselves very courteously to..."

"The Immortal Origin Holy Land, have you heard of it? Rumor has it that among these Super Warriors, there are beings from the Immortal Origin Holy Land…"

"What? Are there even beings from the Immortal Origin Holy Land present?"

"Watch out, we must perform well. Even if we don't win the Heavenly Principle Fruit, if a Super Warrior takes a liking to us and takes us as disciples, that would be an immense stroke of luck…"

"If a being from the Immortal Origin Holy Land takes a shine to us and allows us to visit the Immortal Origin Holy Land once, we might take off into the skies…"

Under the fighting stage, within the crowd, numerous participants preparing for the contest are having excited discussions.

"Look, the 199th fighting stage. That's Deliya Mashi from the Deliya Family, a prodigy of the clan. It was said that he could compete against quasi-Super Warriors when he was at the peak of Level Twelve. His opponent is just a regular Level Twelve peak Cultivator. I'm afraid he's doomed…"

"The 98,155th fighting stage. That's the one really worth noting; Alan, a prodigy who only reached mid-Level Twelve, yet he can compete against quasi-Super Warriors. Some time ago, I heard whispers that he even defeated quasi-Super Warriors. He is a seeded player at mid-Level Twelve. Maybe he has a shot at earning one of the Heavenly Principle Fruits…"

"That's not all. There are a few other geniuses at mid-Level Twelve who are capable of defeating quasi-Super Warriors, like that one…"

Some people in the crowd are discussing the players on the fighting stage.

By this point, the Heavenly Principle Fruit contest had already been going on for a dozen or so days, and many prodigies had emerged, a sight that left many an eye agape.

On the judge's panel,

"This time around, the players participating in the Heavenly Principle Fruit contest seem to be quite good…"

"Yes, indeed. A lot of extraordinarily talented beings have sprung up all of a sudden. In previous contests, each one of them would have been a dazzling figure!"

"This should be due to the influence of the Immortal Origin Holy Land several thousand years ago. The sage preached indiscriminately, thereby causing some stunning geniuses to emerge!"

Some strong beings from the judging panel were also discussing amongst themselves.

"Thanks to the teaching of the saints from the Immortal Origin Holy Land, the standards of the powerful beings in our universe have improved greatly!"

"Exactly, this is a boon for every race in our universe. Master Lee, please help us to express our gratitude to the mighty beings in the Holy Land…"

Some Super Warriors, taking advantage of the circumstances, laughed and looked at a young man on a seat, saying,

The Master Lee they spoke to was none other than Chu Lee, who was the emissary from the Immortal Origin Holy Land.

"You are all too modest. I shall definitely pass along your words." Chu Lee nodded and said with a faint smile.

"Speaking of these dazzling young geniuses, they are all lacking when compared to that Lin Yun…"

A judge passed on a message to some people who were close by him.

"Lin Yun?"

"The one with strong connections to the Immortal Origin Holy Land?"

Upon hearing this judge's comment, the other people's pupils shrank slightly.

They were the elite of this universe.

The matter of Lin Yun had been raising waves across the entire universe, so how could they not have heard of it?

At only the peak of Level Twelve, yet he was comparable to the second-tier Super Warriors, was really against the heavens.

Even though he possessed the Bloodthirsty Sword, his own nature was also extremely against the heavens.

"You can't compare them. You just can't compare them."

Some judges made their opinions known by shaking their heads.

"I heard, that Lin Yun will also participate in this Heavenly Principle Fruit competition." One of the judges said.

"Yes, indeed, I heard that Lord Modan invited him." Another judge replied.

"Considering his strength, even if he were to fight a Super Warrior from our judging panel, we might not be a match for him. Compared with these contestants, he is just bullying them…" a judge said, shaking his head.

"It seems that one of the Heavenly Principle Fruits allocated to the peak of Level Twelve will definitely fall into his hands." Another judge lamented.

"Of course, even if his strength wasn't so great, as long as it wasn't too weak, he would still be awarded a Heavenly Principle Fruit just because of his relationship with the Immortal Origin Holy Land." A judge laughed.
