At this moment, Shi Lingfang was embroiled in the second scene of the dream realm.

On the vast grasslands, Shi Lingfang had become a young woman of the Ge Yao, fleeing the pursuit of her own Ge clan.

This was because the breakthrough awaiting her involved freely choosing a husband who met "her" criteria, rather than being used as a tool for an arranged marriage!

At this instant, Shi Lingfang strenuously drew upon her True Essence, desperately activating the Water Wing Instrument to evade the relentless pursuit of the Ge clan.

The first scene of the dream realm was already this difficult; I didn’t expect the second scene to be equally challenging. With my breakthrough speed, I shouldn’t be lagging behind Li Shenyu and Bo Qing. I absolutely must not lose to Bo Qing!

Shi Lingfang gritted her teeth and, with her second-tier cultivation base, continued to escape the pursuit of the two major clans.

She could tolerate losing to Li Shenyu, the direct disciple of the War Immortal Emperor’s Son, but losing to Bo Qing, who had almost no mentorship, would genuinely leave her sullen for a long time.

Don’t assume she was always gentle; she, too, harbored a unique pride of her own!

The Great Emperor Dreamland in Taolin Mountain was immensely vast, its fleeting lights so intricate that it was difficult to discern the exact situation within.

However, it did not take long before Mou Liang Great Saint detected Li Shenyu’s location.

"Although Li Shenyu is also progressing through the second scene of the dream realm, he has ventured deeper than Shi Lingfang and is close to breaking through to the third scene!"

Mou Liang Great Saint quickly deduced Li Shenyu’s progress using the calculation method taught by East Supreme Saint.

Upon hearing this, the Saints gathered quickly, not skimping on their praises.

"Indeed impressive. A powerful Soul Foundation gives Divine Jade Martial Saint even more confidence."

"It’s not just that. Li Shenyu is, after all, the personal disciple of the War Immortal Emperor’s Son. With such careful nurturing, his strength has far surpassed his peers."

"Heh, it seems Bo Qing will be the slowest among the three. Perhaps if Butterfly Sword Martial Saint had come, there might still have been a slim chance of competition..."

Some expressed regret, while others marveled. Soon, they noticed something unusual. It was because the Dragon Sun Emperor’s Child, East Supreme Saint, had remained in the southeast, gazing deeply into the distance.

Following the Dragon Sun Emperor’s Child’s line of sight, members of the Heavenly Palace utilized their Divine Power to observe carefully. Afterward, they were greatly astonished. In the depths of the blue light, they actually saw a blurry sword shadow! And according to the calculation method given by East Supreme Saint, the sword shadow before their eyes had unexpectedly reached the fourth scene!

"Bo Qing... he’s experiencing a trial in the fourth scene of the dream realm?!" Mou Liang Great Saint exclaimed, his face filled with shock.

He was no novice; he too had entered dream realms before. Ultimately, however, he had been forced to stop at the third scene, firmly stuck and unable to break through no matter what he tried.

It was not just him; the strongest record within the Mysterious Emperor’s Dreamland, set by the Elder of Southern Border Academy, Nan Tian, was also the fourth scene.

If East Supreme Saint had not personally taken action, they would have been incapable of collecting the Dream Tao inheritance that reached the level of Saints.

In that moment, a junior had astonishingly surpassed a descendant of the Dragon Sun Emperor and the granddisciple of the Soul Killing Emperor, taking a decisive lead!

"The fourth scene! My heavens! This far exceeds my expectations. What makes Bo Qing so special?"

"As the saying goes, ’Each generation brings forth new talent.’ Bo Qing might possess the qualities of a Tao Guardian. In other words, Hua Menghuang could very well be the Great Dream Emperor..."

The Saints were profoundly astonished.

East Supreme Saint narrowed his eyes, deeply fixated on the sword shadow as it was submerged and covered by the endless blue light.

He slowly turned and said softly to Mou Liang Great Saint, "When Bo Qing emerges, you may transfer the latest Dream Tao cultivation method to him. Hua Menghuang is to be listed among the top three."

Mou Liang Great Saint’s heart trembled, and he once again looked at that sword shadow with surprise. No one could have anticipated that in the struggle for the Great Dream Seed, it would be Hua Menghuang and Bo Qing who took the lead.

「Ji Family.」

「Colorful Butterfly Garden.」

When Butterfly Sword Martial Saint learned that Hong Yuan had taken the lead in the initial competition, gaining a significant advantage, the smile on her face never ceased.

After all, in the eyes of others, she and Hong Yuan were both mentors to Hua Menghuang, sharing honor and disgrace.

Moreover, the wonderful sensation she had shared with Hong Yuan was still unforgettable to her, even to this day.

The scene where the Water Dragon and Fire Phoenix merged was truly extraordinary!

「On this day.」

Hua Menghuang wandered and frolicked in the back mountains, her cheerful laughter ringing out incessantly.

She caught butterflies with her hands amidst the mountain flowers and waded barefoot in the brook, trying to catch fish.

At this moment, she was on the grass, tending to an injured white rabbit she had stumbled upon and rescued by chance.

"Menghuang."

A cold, solemn voice sounded from behind her.

Inexplicably, Hua Menghuang trembled, her face turning pale. The white rabbit in her hands almost slipped and fell to the grass.

She turned around and saw Butterfly Sword Martial Saint, incomparably beautiful in a floral dress.

"Great Master, I, I..." Hua Menghuang lowered her head, looking at her tiny toes, and spoke in a trembling voice.

Perhaps because Hong Yuan’s method of teaching Hua Menghuang was somewhat gentle, Butterfly Sword Martial Saint had taken on the sterner role. He was the gentle father figure, she the strict mother figure.

And Hua Menghuang, facing Butterfly Sword Martial Saint who was like a strict mother to her, felt even more reverence.

"I didn’t come to urge you to study harder," Butterfly Sword Martial Saint said, bending down and gently stroking the white rabbit in Hua Menghuang’s hands. "During this time, your performance has satisfied me."

The next moment, a gentle power flowed from her hand, and the wounds on the white rabbit’s hind legs instantly healed.

Meeting Hua Menghuang’s perplexed gaze, Butterfly Sword Martial Saint happily shared the news of Hong Yuan’s excellent achievements in the competition among Great Dream Seed mentors.

Watching her Great Master, who seemed to have completely forgotten her previous anger and now wore an expression of pure, simple happiness, Hua Menghuang felt a little strange and thought to herself:

Phew, I escaped a disaster.

Also, didn’t Great Master tell me never to mention Second Master again? Why is she herself talking about him so enthusiastically, so happily? The world of adults is truly strange...
