He walked out of the secret chamber and saw countless fireworks suddenly exploding in the void ahead.

Those fireworks were incredibly dazzling, almost illuminating the entire void.

"Could it be an enemy attack?"

However, this scene immediately aroused Duan Gujin's suspicions. His eyes flickered, completely puzzled as to why there would be fireworks that could light up the entire sky at Guanghan Heavenly Palace.

One must know that this was a crucial moment in the confrontation with the Sky Crossing Demon King.

Everyone in Guanghan Heavenly Palace should be in battle readiness, prepared to face the Sky Crossing Demon King at any moment.

Logically, there shouldn't be any major cause for celebration inside Guanghan Heavenly Palace.

Even if there were, it shouldn't be flaunted so openly at such a critical moment, right?

Full of doubts, Duan Gujin quickly extended his Divine Sense, closely examining the surrounding situation.

He saw that there were quite a few people coming and going ahead, none of them showing any signs of panic on their faces.

Therefore, he deduced that there must not be any surprise enemy attacks.

If it wasn't an enemy infiltration, then why were there such brilliant fireworks in the sky? Could it be someone celebrating?

Moments later, he saw a large group of unfamiliar young people slowly approaching from a distance.

But those young people were quickly stopped by the disciples guarding the front, preventing them from continuing forward.

"What's going on here?"

Eager to uncover the truth, Duan Gujin hurriedly ran over.

Shortly after, he learned the truth from the conversations among the crowd.

"So, these people are here for the martial contest!"

Duan Gujin smacked his forehead, recalling that he had previously suggested to the Palace Master the idea of a martial arts competition to open the doors of Guanghan Heavenly Palace to the youths of the world.

He didn't actually want Shang Yumin to hold a marriage contest, but rather he wanted to use this opportunity to let the assassins of the Assassin Dynasty infiltrate Guanghan Heavenly Palace, then capture some of their important figures.

After consulting with Palace Master Shang, they both believed this method could indeed attract assassins from the Assassin Dynasty to enter the place.

Calculating the time, he realized that today was precisely the first day of the marriage contest.

Duan Gujin had no interest in participating in Shang Yumin's martial contest, so he quickly went to look for the Palace Master.

Upon finding the Palace Master, he inquired if anything unexpected had happened in Qiankun Continent these days.

The Palace Master told Duan Gujin that they still couldn't locate the Sky Crossing Demon King using the Demon Seeking Compass and that the entire Qiankun Continent was calm.

After talking for a while, they shifted the conversation to the current martial contest affairs.

"Palace Master, how are the preparations for the martial contest going? Have you found any people from the Assassin Dynasty lurking among us?"

Duan Gujin asked hastily.

"We've made proper preparations, and up to now, we haven't detected anyone from the Assassin Dynasty,"

The Palace Master said.

"No matter, we still have ten days. We can take our time to search! I believe that anyone from the Assassin Dynasty who has infiltrated this place will eventually show their true colors,"

Duan Gujin stated confidently.

"That's all we can hope for!"

The Palace Master was not very confident in her heart.

For her, it was still the first time to host such a large-scale marital arts competition for the purpose of marriage, and she had no idea what to do next; she could only follow the suggestions of other Sect Masters.

And the other Sect Masters had also told her that their disciples would fully cooperate to help the Palace Master find the assassins from the Assassin Dynasty who had infiltrated the event.

"How is Shang Yumin doing?"

Duan Gujin asked out of curiosity.

"She's hiding, that child is shy, and is now throwing a bit of a tantrum!"

The Palace Master said with a slight shake of her head and a sigh.

"Children are like that, they'll get used to it!"

Duan Gujin said casually.

In order to find the assassin from the Assassin Dynasty as soon as possible, Duan Gujin decided to infiltrate amongst the young people to see if he could identify any assassins from the Assassin Dynasty who had mixed in.

He first transformed himself to look like another young man and then infiltrated among them.

At this time, there was a large group of young people gathering; these young people were the top talents of the young generation from all across the Qiankun Continent, including disciples from the Green Cloud Sect and various other large and small sects.

To make the play more believable, the Sect Masters of various sects sent their best disciples over to boost the momentum and add authenticity, in order not to let the assassins from the Assassin Dynasty have any suspicion that this was a conspiracy.

The disciples sent in really thought that Guanghan Heavenly Palace was indeed conducting a martial arts competition for marriage; they believed that if they could win this competition, they could rise to the top and lead a happy life envied even by immortals, becoming the ultimate winner in life.

On the Qiankun Continent, young people with even a bit of strength naturally have high hopes for such a good opportunity.

Moreover, to make the play even more believable, the Palace Master had Shang Yumin dress up properly and then appear before everyone.

When she made her appearance, it immediately aroused the concern of those young people, who cheered and became as excited as if they were on chicken blood, getting incredibly enthused.

At this time, the young people of the Qiankun Continent were enthusiastically discussing matters at a Star Viewing Platform in Guanghan Heavenly Palace.

The Star Viewing Platform seemed to be a place for young people to have discussions, but in reality, it was used by the people of Guanghan Heavenly Palace to monitor and check if there were any assassins from the Assassin Dynasty among them.

After all, the cultivation techniques practiced by the assassins of the Assassin Dynasty were somewhat different from ordinary people, and those slight differences required a very close observation to detect.

Therefore, Guanghan Heavenly Palace sent many elders to get close to these young people. On the surface, it was for them to display their talents to their heart's content, but in reality, it was to see if they were assassins from the Assassin Dynasty.

The young people did not suspect that the martial arts competition from beginning to end was a ruse; they saw many young people just like them entering Guanghan Heavenly Palace, and everywhere was filled with an atmosphere of joy, and the people here also acknowledged that they were preparing for the martial arts competition.

Thus, these young people had no doubt about the authenticity of the martial arts competition at Guanghan Heavenly Palace.

They performed their talents to the fullest at the Star Viewing Platform, hoping to stand out and achieve a stunning success.

And Duan Gujin, lurking among these young people, suddenly saw a familiar figure.

"Hey, isn't that Cao Wentian? What is he doing here?"

Soon, Duan Gujin confirmed that he had indeed seen Cao Wentian among that group of young people.

After a while, he determined that Cao Wentian's current cultivation level had actually reached the Sixth Level of Martial Monarch.

Duan Gujin's brows furrowed slightly; he had not expected that Cao Wentian could break through to the Sixth Level of Martial Monarch in such a short period of time.

"Could it be that Cao Wentian has come across some Immortal Destiny? Why could his cultivation level increase to the Sixth Level of Martial Monarch in such a short period? His cultivation progress is terrifying, isn't it?"

Duan Gujin suddenly became interested in Cao Wentian and then followed him closely from the shadows.

At this moment, Cao Wentian's face was flush with health, full of vibrant energy and high spirits, his body almost seemed to be floating.

"Hehe, I passed the preliminaries today as the top contender, I think the Palace Master of Guanghan Heavenly Palace should take notice of me!"
