Mythical Beasts: The Useless Lady Is a Genius!-Chapter 27

Sharing a Table

Everyone’s heads moved up and down at an extremely fast speed.

Many people even felt that stars had appeared in the clear sky.

The huge shape of the griffin hovered in the air again, bringing great swaths of shadow.

Hua Shang couldn’t help but wave his fan and chuckle. “She really put on a show!”

Wen Qiong gritted her teeth when she saw this. “Li Ling! I’ll teach you a lesson after the competition!”

Kong Rui returned to her seat safely. The other contestants from the various clans who were just joining in the fun obediently ran to the center of the Bestial Battle Arena to choose their tokens.

Back then, they had only included such a segment to give those contestants a chance to showcase their strengths.

This was especially true for the contestants from the five major families. It gave them a chance to showcase themselves before the start of the competition. They even outshone the descendants of the other families.

Originally, the queen didn’t intend to embarrass those descendants of the other clans. These tokens were thrown high up. Even if they weren’t capable enough, they wouldn’t have to wait for the tokens to fall to the ground before picking them up.

Unexpectedly, Kong Rui appeared out of nowhere and attracted everyone’s attention, causing those tokens to fall to the ground.

The clan disciples who didn’t get the chance to show off could only go and retrieve the tokens dejectedly. ƒ𝒓e𝐞we𝚋𝙣ｏ𝚟𝚎𝘭.co𝙢

After all, they didn’t all have griffins to carry them back!

However, everyone blamed this on Kong Rui, who went against the princess. No one thought that if the princess hadn’t made a move at that time, the current situation might not have happened!

No matter what had happened earlier, at least each contestant had gotten their own token.

“Is the grouping over? When will the battle between the five families begin?” Some curious people had already begun to feel impatient.

“I heard that the contestants will be announced during the competition tomorrow. I wonder if we can see the competition between the five families tomorrow!” Voices filled with anticipation sounded.

“I heard that the Lei family wants to compete with the Nie family this time. This is what I want to see the most this year!” Someone had already begun to designate the lineup of the competition.

“I wonder who that little girl from the Li family will face in the first battle. Looking at her insufferably arrogant appearance, if she loses the first battle, she will probably be taught a lesson when she goes back!” Someone was already worried about Kong Rui’s safety.

However, although some were worried, there were more who felt schadenfreude.

The contestants looked at the tokens in their hands and glanced at the people around them to see if any of them was their opponent for tomorrow.

The tokens were engraved with different content. Those with the same content were in a group.

Kong Rui glanced at the token in her hand. The word “Ask the Heavens” was engraved on it with a golden diamond pen.

The corners of Kong Rui’s mouth curled up slightly as she marveled. This phrase matched her fate.

She wanted to ask the heavens why they treated her like this!

There were more than 20 clans participating in the competition. In addition to the five major clans, there were also descendants of the royal family and the surrounding small countries.

As for the contestants of the five great clans, they naturally received a lot of attention. Compared to them, those descendants of the other clans were just ants that could be crushed with one hand.

Everyone couldn’t wait to watch the competition between the five clans. However, with the competition system being like this, everyone could only look forward to the competition tomorrow. There would be people from the five clans who could be assigned to the same group!

After the grouping was completed, Wen Qiong finished showing off her little phoenix. The opening ceremony of the first day of the Beast Fighting Feast was coming to an end.

After the protocol officer announced that the opening ceremony was over, the queen stood up and invited the representatives of the three major sects and the contestants from the five major families to the palace for a banquet.

Kong Rui wanted to refuse. She still felt disgusted to be in the same room as the queen and Wen Qiong.

But thinking of the little phoenix locked in the palace, Kong Rui perked up again.

The palace banquet was indeed much grander and more luxurious than an ordinary family banquet.

Even though Kong Rui had grown up in the palace, she had never seen such a scene.

She couldn’t help but sneer. She didn’t expect there to be a day that she would eat with them!

During the meal, everyone exchanged pleasantries. The elders and patriarchs of the five major clans also expressed how outstanding and cute their children were to the representatives of the three major sects.

After all, if a disciple could be accepted by the three major sects, it would be the glory of the family!

With her wine glass in her hand, Hong Ling glanced in Nie Yin’s direction seductively.

Profound Heaven Sect’s Chu Qing, who was sitting at the side, snorted disdainfully. “Women only know how to flirt with those pretty boys!”
