Help! The Villainess Trapped in the Beast World's Drama!

Chapter 682: Chapter 599: The Birth of a New King! (Part 4)

Why can’t he move? The force from the wind wall made it impossible for him to advance, and he was even pushed back—this is definitely not the power a Seventh Rank Beastman should possess!

In the distance, the Sky King and others witnessed this scene and were also shocked.

But even more shocking events were yet to come.

Suddenly, the aura around Tian Xi became powerful and dense, surging upward at an astonishing speed. In just a few breaths, she broke through from the Seventh Rank Peak to the Ninth Rank!

This can’t be possible!

How could someone break through two ranks at once?

There is only one explanation: the Third Princess has been hiding her true strength all along!

This reversal was so unexpected that even the Beastmen battling around them involuntarily stopped and marveled,

”Oh my... is this the true power of the Third Princess?”

”She’s actually Ninth Rank! Just like His Highness Tian Lin back in the day, and even younger!”

”I remember that when the Sky King was her age, he had just broken through to the Ninth Rank! Truly a tiger father with no dog daughters!”

”Amazing... breaking through to the Ninth Rank just upon reaching adulthood, her future potential is limitless. She might even reach the Legendary Realm!”

The Sky King watched this unfold, a shock beyond words resonating in her heart.

She loved her youngest daughter, yet had to admit that in terms of succession, there were many things to consider when sitting on the throne. Tian Xi’s talent and family background were not outstanding, so she had never held high hopes for this daughter in that regard.

But who could have guessed that Tian Xi was hiding her abilities?

Upon reflection, the Sky King quickly understood and sighed inwardly: this little daughter is truly shrewd.

The Sky King herself had a high status and exceptional talent since childhood, with a flamboyant personality that never hid her edge.

However, Tian Xi was different. She had two excellent brothers above her and no powerful family backing. If she wanted to be a carefree vase, it would be easy; the status of a Princess would ensure her happiness and peace for life. But if she wanted to take the path of power struggles, it was destined to be fraught with difficulties.

”A tall tree catches the wind.”

This principle applies at all times.

In struggles for succession, family background sometimes matters more than talent.

Even if Tian Xi showed her talent early and gained the Sky King’s attention and love, without the power to protect herself, any threat to the two princes and their backing could lead to countless ”accidents” causing her early death.

To protect Tian Xi, father and daughter have kept everything hidden until now, waiting for her to truly grow and make a stunning debut!

However, this was not the end—

After breaking through to the early Ninth Rank, Tian Xi’s power continued to rise!

Mid Ninth Rank, late Ninth Rank...

Golden light erupted around her, and she suddenly broke through to the Tenth Rank!

”Screech—”

An ethereal bird cry resonated across the sky, and the girl in battle armor transformed into her true form, soaring with open wings to the heavens above.

Her cyan-brown wings spread wide, her lithe, slender body covered in a layer of azure blue scales, with the fringe and tips of her feathers turning long, hard, and a radiant gold.

The tail feathers, nearly as long as her body, fluttered in the air, adorned with totems resembling peacock eyes, their patterns also turning golden.

For a moment, it was as if countless eyes opened in the sky, sacred, beautiful, yet tinged with eeriness—like divine prophecies engraved on murals, shockingly gorgeous!

What Roc is this? What Peacock?

This is clearly the mythical Qing Luan!

At this moment, the chaotic battlefield seemed to come to a sudden halt, and even the air seemed to freeze.

Everyone looked up, dazed, at that beautiful and dazzling figure.

The Third Princess has successfully awakened!

She successfully awakened her bloodline and broke through to the Tenth Rank!

Xing Ye stared dumbfounded at the radiant figure in the sky, his heart like it had stopped; yet a blaze seemed to burn in his chest.

Tian Chen was even more stunned.

Damn.

Could it be?

Their third sister awakened before them?!

Doesn’t that mean he lost the bet for sure?

Where would he put his face now?

The crowd came back to their senses, utterly speechless from shock.

Those who bet on the Second Prince or other competitors to win only felt their faces burning. The Third Princess, who was least favored before the match, turned out to be the biggest dark horse!

To awaken her bloodline and break through to the Tenth Rank just upon adulthood... such talent surpasses even Tian Lin, far beyond the young Sky King!

At this moment, the contest lost all meaning.

The new King is decided!

Tian Lin stared blankly at the radiant Tian Xi, his face pale as he staggered back.

No, impossible. This is absolutely impossible...

Once he regained his senses, his face turned cold and gloomy, and he stared at that figure with extreme jealousy and murderous intent rolling in his eyes.

Oh, Third Sister... he originally had no intention to kill her, but who knew she was the one who took everything from him!

So today, he must not let her go!

No matter that she broke through; she is still not his opponent!

Tian Lin launched a full-scale attack on Tian Xi, each move deadly, swearing to end her!

Tian Chen and Xing Ye immediately rushed forward, fighting alongside Tian Xi to counter Tian Lin.

The Sky King, having cleared the surrounding Beastmen, intended to help but stopped, watched the three fight, and ultimately did not intervene.

Though Tian Lin’s Peak Tenth Rank strength was formidable, even the three combined struggled to gain an advantage, and the battle remained one-sided.

Yet, under the intense combat and at the edge of life and death, the Second Prince Tian Chen’s strength broke through from the Peak of Eighth Rank to the Ninth Rank, and kept rising!

Xing Ye’s Ninth Rank cultivation also became more stable, gradually climbing higher.

After several life-and-death clashes, golden and silver lights erupted in succession around them, and they both broke through!

For a moment, three Tenth Rank fighters faced off against one Peak Tenth Rank, rapidly turning the tide of the battle!

Though Tian Lin appeared to be Peak Tenth Rank, he had artificially raised his level through illicit means, and his body already couldn’t sustain it. Through prolonged combat, his condition plummeted, and he quickly fell under the trio’s onslaught.

”Boom!”

A heavy blow struck him hard, sending Tian Lin crashing down from the sky, creating a deep pit and unable to rise again.

Tian Xi formed a Wind Blade in her hand, slowly approaching Tian Lin, her voice devoid of warmth,

”Since mother can’t do it, let me send you off on your final journey.”

She looked at her formerly beloved brother and called out one last time,

”Big Brother.”

The sharp blade pierced Tian Lin’s heart. In unwillingness and resentment, Tian Lin lost all signs of life.

Soon after, the Deputy was also slain by Shen Tang and Lu Xiao working together.

The Three Kings and their generals led their armies in completely crushing the rebels.

This political struggle for the throne lasted for three days and swiftly concluded.
