Feng Xiang was a core disciple of the Divine Wind Sect. He was a young man in his early twenties and had a handsome appearance. He was walking around proudly with his elder and showing off the treasure sword. He also had a few glasses of spirit wine and was trying to impress a beautiful core disciple of the Frost Peak Sect. Keeping watch over him was Elder Wu, who was chatting with other guests and occasionally giving advice to disciples.

The core elder of the Star Fall Sect is named Master Qing. Unlike another core elder of the various sects, he was actually Soul Formation Realm. He was sitting at a table with Prince Wei and other high-ranking officials, discussing various political and martial matters concerning the country.

There were a few extra disciples from each sect who were not participating in the tournament but had promising futures and had come to gain more exposure and experience.

There were a few golden core realm elders from each sect who were there to support the core elders and disciples and to observe the promising disciples. They were sitting or standing together in a group, occasionally chatting and exchanging views on cultivation.

After informing about the sect, Duo started telling Han Cai about the two leading cultivation families who were attending the banquet beside Cui and Wang.

Zhou's family had brought two of their most talented members to participate in the tournament: Zhou Yu and Zhou Mei. Zhou Yu was a young man at the peak of the Core Formation realm with exceptional sword skills. In the banquet, he was seen talking with other young cultivators, discussing the upcoming tournament, and exchanging insights on cultivation techniques. Zhou Mei was a young woman in the late Core Formation realm with strong spiritual power and an impressive talent for alchemy. She was seen sitting with a group of female cultivators from various sects, sipping on spirit wine and sharing stories about their cultivation journeys.

The patriarch of the Zhou family, Zhou Jian, was a middle-aged man in the Nascent Soul realm. He was a respected figure in the cultivation world, known for his strategic mind and his skill in battle formations. In the banquet, he was mingling with other Nascent Soul elders, discussing politics and cultivation matters.

The Yang family also had brought two promising young members to participate in the tournament. Yang Feng, a young man in the late Core Formation realm, was known for his exceptional control over elemental powers, particularly lightning. He was considered a prodigy within the Yang family, and he had a confident and charismatic aura that drew attention wherever he went.

Yang Huan, a young woman in the mid-Core Formation realm, was a talented healer and had a natural affinity for life energy. She looked gentle and compassionate person.

The Li family had brought two talented members as well: Li Shuo and Li Xin. Li Shuo was a young man in the mid-Core Formation realm with exceptional physical strength and speed. In the banquet, he was seen testing his strength with other young cultivators, challenging them to arm-wrestling matches. Li Xin was a young woman in the early Core Formation realm with a talent for musical instruments and an enchanting voice. She was seen performing for a group of guests, singing a traditional song that showcased the beauty of the cultivation world.

The patriarch of the Li family, Li Ming, was a middle-aged man in the Soul Formation realm. He was a shrewd businessman and a skilled negotiator known for his ability to strike deals and forge alliances. In the banquet, he was seen talking with other Soul Formation elders and discussing trade and commerce matters.

Han Cai concluded that the highest level cultivators that were visiting this banquet came from the Li family and Starfall sect and were in soul formation, to a soul formation to visit a banquet that was unheard of for him.

More than those powerful families, sects, and aristocrats, Han Cai was interested in the royal family. The family that was responsible for this country No matter what, he was born in this country, so it could be told that it was his motherland, even though he did not feel any attachment to it. Still, he was interested in knowing about the royals that he had read so much about.

Seeing Han Cai's curiosity about royals, Cui Wei and Wang Jie started telling him about the prince and princess who were present at the banquet.

They informed him that the emperor had many sons and daughters with the queen and his concubines.

The eldest son, Prince Jiahao, was a strong and ambitious young man who was determined to succeed his father as emperor. He was fiercely competitive and often clashed with his siblings over winning the favor of their father. He was highly intelligent and skilled in both politics and martial arts, making him a formidable rival to his siblings.

Han Cai noticed the prince, who roamed around the banquet as if he owned the place. He had powerful nobility and aristocrats flocking around him. The prince was making an active effort to interact with as many people as possible.

The second son, Prince Min, was a charming and charismatic young man who was popular among the courtiers and commoners alike. He was known for his ability to win the hearts of others and was often used by his father to win over allies and gain support. He was also a skilled warrior, but his focus was on diplomacy and strategy.

Han Cai noticed that what they told him about Prince Min was true. Most of the courtiers were flocking around him. He was standing near the ministers of Yin.

The third son, Prince Zhen, was known for his military prowess and was the commander of the royal army. He was a skilled warrior and was respected by the soldiers under his command. He was currently leading the kingdom's efforts to expand its territory and strengthen its borders.

This prince interacted mostly with leaders of various sects of the Yin kingdom. From the look on his face, it was obvious that he had no interest in politics or in trying to please the aristocrats of the kingdom.

The fourth son, Prince Tian, was known for his wit and charm. He was often seen at court events and was popular among the kingdom's noble families. He was also a skilled diplomat and was often sent on missions to smooth over relations with other countries.

The prince was mostly interacting with guests who were here from neighboring kingdoms. Many young women could be seen flocking around him because of his charms. Without using his perception or system, Han Cai knew Prince Tian was a player.

The Fifth Son, Prince Wei, was a quiet and reserved young man who kept to himself. He was deeply interested in the study of alchemy and cultivation and spent most of his time cultivating, even when he was in the royal palace. He was highly intelligent and had a deep understanding of the cultivation arts, but he was not as interested in politics as his brothers. He was a core disciple of the Starfall Sect. He was going to participate in the tournament on behalf of the Starfall Sect.

The fifth prince was mostly hanging around with his sect elders and disciples. He kept a low profile compared to other princes.

The eldest daughter, Princess Xian, was a beautiful and elegant young woman who was highly skilled in court etiquette and protocol. She is often used by her father to represent the royal family at official ceremonies and events. It was said that she was also a skilled painter and musician and often entertained her father and family members with her talents.

Han Cai noticed the princess sitting around with many other young females and other princesses of the royal family interacting with her. Seeing her, Han Cai was sure that her artistic talents were nothing but jackshit. This must be all fake news that the Emperor might have spread because she might be the daddy's favorite princess.

The second daughter, Princess Mei, was a kind and compassionate young woman who was deeply interested in charitable works and helping the less fortunate. She often visited the poor and sick in the city and is beloved by the common people for her generosity and kindness.

He saw the third princess sitting quietly. All kinds of people came to greet her. He thought it was another sham of marketing. She was not in charity; most probably, she was more shallow than her elder sister, so she decided to get fame through kindness.

The third daughter, Princess Ying, is the daughter of Concubine Lan, a beautiful and ambitious woman who was determined to secure a powerful position for her daughter. It was said that Princess Ying was young and naive but had a sharp mind and a quick wit.

Princess Ying looked a bit more original compared to her other sisters. But with one look Han Cai was sure there was no way she was naïve. She was better at pretending than her other sisters.

The youngest daughter, Princess Ley, was also known for her sharp mind and is being trained in the ways of politics and diplomacy. She was often seen assisting her father in court and is expected to play a key role in the kingdom's politics in the future.

This princess was the most original of them all, not because she was not as pretentious as her sisters but because she did not speak much like her other sisters.
