Chapter 574: 571, clearly it was me who was _1 first
Prince Charles held aloft a yellow crystal ball, intending to present it to the White Dragon Princess. He had even rehearsed his speech.
But when the White Dragon Princess suddenly accelerated, leading the young dragon pack right over his head without any hesitation, his smile froze on his face.
What was going on?
Could there be other prodigies present? Whose talents surpassed his as a Prince?
How was that possible?
Just like Prince Charles, the faces of the surrounding noble sons hardened.
The whole group of over a hundred young dragons flew past them as though they did not exist. Without a glance in their direction, the dragons headed straight for the outer arena.
Could the talents of the children of commoners from the outer field surpass theirs? Was this possible? How could they be so inferior?Nôv(el)B\\jnn
The incident of “no young dragon choosing anyone from the inner field” was a first in the entire history of the Raging Sun Empire!
Besides Prince Charles and the noble sons, the hovering Dragon Envoy was also extremely shocked.
Just as he usually did, he flew up into the air, arms wide open to greet the leading adult Red Dragon. “Welcome, my old friend!” he said.
But the adult Red Dragon, unlike in the past, did not stop to greet him. He sent a perfunctory “Thank you” and continued flying past him to the outer field with the young dragons, showing no sign of stopping.
The Dragon Envoy was taken aback; he didn’t quite get what was going on.
In the distant audience stands, a stir went through the parents, their excitement growing.
They didn’t care whether the young dragons had chosen anyone in the inner field. Since all the young dragons had flown to the outer field, did that mean their children had a chance?
Moreover, there were especially many young dragons that year; wouldn’t the odds of being chosen multiply by tens or hundreds?
However, they soon realized they were wrong.
The young dragons flew over the outer field at high speed, reaching the audience stands in just a few seconds.
Almost all the Skuru people present were shocked.
What was up with these young dragons? Why had they skipped the inner field, not stopped at the outer field, and now flown into the audience stand? Had they collectively ingested some strange substance?
Before long, they saw why.
Upon reaching the audience stands, the young dragons immediately flew to Su Yu’s side.
Flapping their wings and creating an Air Wall, the dragons pushed away the spectators around Su Yu. Then, as if they were children having a snack circle, they gathered around him in a circle, looking at him with curiosity.
Su Yu had taken a legendary quality [Dragon Race Favor Potion] when he was ascending to the Sanctuary.
([Dragon Race Favor Potion (Legend)]: +30 Favor with the Dragon Race, lasts 24 hours.)
Because he consumed it along with [Heart of Blue Dragon Scarti], the “+30 favor with the Dragon Race” turned into a permanent boost.
Although the young dragon pack was initially attracted by Morning Star’s dried cod, when they finally arrived, they discovered that Su Yu was the real “treasure”!
So, a bunch of young dragons began to show affection towards Su Yu.
“Young man, would you like to become partners with me? Once we become partners, we can grow and progress together, facing difficulties side by side!” a stunningly beautiful Green Dragon said to him first.
“Don’t listen to her, become my partner! My physique is much stronger than this weak Green Dragon! With me, you will have a greater room for progress.”
A sturdy Black Dragon jumped up and down in place as he spoke, seemingly showing off his strength.
“Ahem, would you be willing to become my partner?” At this point, the White Dragon Princess couldn’t hold back and slowly moved towards him: “I am the princess of the White Dragon clan. I have the purest bloodline, my strength and talent are also the strongest among all young dragons, would you consider me first?”
“What use is a pure bloodline? Are you as beautiful as I am?” said the the beautiful Green Dragon, flapping her wings.
“Princess, don’t boast. When it comes to strength, how could you possibly be stronger than I am?” said the Black Dragon who had spoken earlier, countering her statement.
A group of young dragons began to squabble for Su Yu.
…
Crack!
At this moment, a faint sound of heartbreak echoed in the inner field.
Watching the White Dragon Princess compete with other young dragons for Su Yu, Prince Charles suddenly felt as though his wife was being stolen.
She was mine first! Whether it was the Dragon Arrival Ceremony or the crystal ball gift, why had things turned out like this?
He nearly lost control and crushed the valuable crystal ball in his hand.
All the Skuru youth in the inner and outer fields, the audience, and even the Dragon Envoy were too shocked to speak.
This situation completely upended their understanding.
The young dragons had ignored the many talented young men in the inner field and instead circled around this middle-aged Skuru ‘uncle’ who appeared to be around forty or fifty years old in the audience stand.
Could this man be an unprecedented prodigy?
The Dragon Envoy was the most powerful. He was the first to recover from the shock.
Full of confusion, he flew to the Red Dragon’s side and asked, “Friend, what on earth is going on? There are so many outstanding young men in the inner field that you did not choose. Why are you surrounding this…who the hell is this? Weren’t we supposed to bring together Princess Coco and Prince Charles…”
“You don’t understand, friend. This youngster holds an unparalleled unique charm for us!”
Without turning around, the adult Red Dragon replied while watching Su Yu, “If I didn’t already have a partner and hadn’t been together with her for hundreds of years, I would also feel an impulse to become partners with this youngster!”
The Dragon Envoy: “…”
…
The young dragons were still vying for Su Yu, showing off their individual advantages.
Su Yu was also quite troubled.
He had never imagined that all the young dragons would be attracted to him. This level of attention was not what he desired.
Seeing that the feud among the young dragons for him was intensifying and there were signs of an impending fight, he hurriedly said, “Everyone, don’t rush! I already have a partner. It’s this little electric mouse.”
Su Yu pointed to the Morning Star on his shoulder and added, “It’s even the same purple-skinned little electric mouse as that of Cao Cao, a Blue Star Human.”
“Pikachu!” chirped Morning Star, joining in the conversation.
Having just recovered from the shock, this statement from Su Yu was another heart attack for the Skuru people.
Brother! This is the Dragon Race we’re talking about!
Being partnered with a dragon, wouldn’t it be ten thousand….a hundred thousand times better than this rotten electric mouse?
You are throwing away an elephant to pick up an ant!
Could this man be mentally deficient?
But before they could recover from the shock, words from the White Dragon Princess Coco gave them another blow, leading them to a second heart attack.
Here’s what Coco said: “That’s alright. I can be your second partner.”
This sentence devastated many Skuru people.
Thud! Thud!
The sounds of bodies fainting and falling to the ground filled the arena.
