The Chaos Dragon Prince

When the Dragon Altar test was finished, Shi Wei didn't delay anytime, quickly gripping Cain's group and vanishing out of sight. 

With her leave, the other Huang Dragons took the transmission array to leave the celestial mountain.

As they all quickly left, only two figures remained high in the skies. 

These two were Huang Laolong and Song Lin, and both parents had critical expressions crossing their faces. 

No mistaking it, Cain, Kali, and Amber's results tremendously shook them to their cores. It even gave them a vague sense of pressure. 

But at the same time, they needed to quickly know just how they should proceed from here. Talent does indeed have an awe-inspiring effect, but without the proper cultivation, so what if you have talent?

A dead genius that failed to reach their true potential is just as useless as an ordinary peak Mortal tier talent. 

"With this, the balance will soon shift from Zilong to each of them. The problem is their cultivation is far too low. This generation has already started, yet each of them is so far behind." Song Lin softly sighed, feeling some regret. 

If she knew about this talent earlier, how would things ever get so rough for Cain or Kali? 

Alas, there was no medicine for regret.

Huang Laolong slightly shook his head, saying, "No point in dwelling in the past. From here on, we will need to correctly foster their cultivation and combat prowess. I can at least vaguely perceive that each of them has the ability to skip minor boundaries. But, for them to exercise their true potentials, they will need to be able to fight above one major boundary. Zilong, Leilong, Jaolong and Rulong can all achieve this. And not only them, but the Phoenixes young geniuses and all those top tier Heavenly Great World geniuses can also achieve this."

"So what do you propose? In my eyes, I believe we should have them continually use the Illusion Killing Array to sharpen themselves. And isn't there a quasi-mystic realm soon opening?" Song Lin suddenly recalled.

Huang Laolong nodded, "Indeed there is. The Nightmare realm. But before that, they will need to greatly expand their current cultivation. I've heard that place isn't overly dangerous with plenty of opportunities to escape, but you can never be completely sure."

"Mn…we can't let anything of that happens again." As Song Lin spoke, her eyes suddenly flashed a bright glint. "Speaking off, didn't Mother say each of them has attainments in Spirit Laws? Should we split time off for them to advance in the Spiritual Way?"

Huang Laolong stayed silent for a moment, recalling all that he knew about the Spiritual Way. 

Unfortunately, despite his level of perception abilities, he could only scratch the surface of the Spiritual Way.

Shaking his head, he explained, "We will let the Ancestors handle this. Each of them has far higher mastery with the Spiritual Way than any of us." 

After they finished speaking, Huang Laolong and Song Lin instantly vanished from the scene. 

And at the same time, Shi Wei kept her gaze on them, a mysterious glint hazing her eyes.

....

Several hours quickly passed since Cain's group talent test. 

The current state of the Huang Dragon Imperial Palace was one of extravagant bustling. 

Naturally, with so many watching the event, words of Cain's group's immense talent quickly spread all over the Huang Dragon's hidden world.

On one celestial mountain was the central branch of the Imperial Palace. This was Yellow Dragon City, a gargantuan metropolis the size of a small Lower Realm nation.

Here is where most of the millions of other Huang Dragons reside. This is also where the network's central hub gets passed around to their rivaling Sects and nations.

And on this day, a massive piece of news quite literally shook the whole City! 

"What?! The sixth princess has Holy King level talent?! And the seventh prince reached the mysterious 11th step?! Is this the rise of our bloodline?!"

"Not just them, apparently they also have a companion with them who has the Soul Dragon Mark. And she has talent on the same level as Crown Prince Zilong!" 

"Heavens! How could our streak of luck be so good?

At this point, many nearly forgot that the now-famous sixth princess and the seventh prince were once zero cultivation aptitude wastes. 

Now, all on their minds is just the kind of incomprehensible boundary Cain's group can reach.

…

At this time, within the Huang Dragon Imperial Palace, the meeting between the Ancestors was taking place. 

Inside a hidden chamber, Shi Wei, Wulong, Xilong, Nailong had all gathered around a table. 

For Shi Wei, her expression was of usual, only supporting a knowing faint smile. 

While Huang Wulong, Xilong, and Nailong all had profound critical expressions. 

Of course, even for all their age and wisdom, phenomenal talents like Cain's group are beyond their expectations. Moreover, it similarly stirred their Martial Heart in the hope of the boundaries each of them can achieve in the future. 

Along with these Dragon Ancestors, there was one other old figure sitting at the head of the table.

This person was quite mysterious. Compared to the overwhelming momentum of Shi Wei, Wulong, Xilong, and Nailong, this old man didn't have the slightest trace of a grand majestic presence.

He more so exuded an aura of wisdom beyond all natural comprehension and calmness that can stand against chaotic waves. His face was full of wrinkles from over centuries of living; his pitch-black eyes were akin to staring into the hidden depths of the abyss, endless and profound.

His attire as well consisted of a simple black dragon robe, holding zero qualities of the other Supreme Ancestors' dragon robes. 

This unfathomable old man was the leading Great Ancestor of the Imperial Palace; Huang Maolong!

Usually, the leading Great Ancestor would barely, if ever, bothered with distracting worldly affairs. 

Only when the Imperial Palace is in irreversible danger, or heaven-shaking news comes does Huang Maolong leaves his close door cultivation.

At his age and cultivation, experts like him would rather spend the rest of their lifespan attempting to reach the last bits of their Martial Potential. Since his Imperial family is in a stable state, he could not show up for hundreds of years, and everything will still be alright.

But as of now, the situation with Cain, Kali, and Amber obviously calls for his attention. It wasn't an exaggeration at all to say those three would directly influence the destiny of the Imperial Family.

"So, to summarize, Cain and Kali apparently cultivated for a mere two months to reach their level. Furthermore, his lover is an unprecedented Lower Talent that surpasses even the Crown Prince? Truthfully, the aspect my mind has questions over is the whole process of Cain and Kali's cultivation. Have you still made zero progress, Elder Wei?"

Huang Maolong slowly spoke, his tone containing an unfathomable aura that made it impossible to ignore.

For a first, Shi Wei had complete respect in her eyes against Huang Maolong's questioning. 

She calmly said, "Still nothing so far, Ancestor. This situation is as mysterious as the Dao. The most I can pierce together is the fact that some of their latent talents have always been within them. Even before they left for the Heaven Sky Planet, I had identified the purest Draconic Aura within their bloodline."

"I see…" Huang Malong briefly closed his eyes, stroking his long gray beard in momentary thought. 

As he briefly pondered, Huang Wulong suddenly asked, "And just what is your evaluation of them, Ancestor? I assume you were connected to the Dao Diagrams during their test."

Huang Maolong slowly opens his eyes back up, a transparent black shine glinting within. "Each of them isn't anything ordinarily special. On the contrary, they're quite unlike anything I have ever seen before. In fact, I can perceive that both Cain and Kali did not use their absolute abilities during the test. In fact, the silver hair one similarly didn't put forth all of her efforts. Despite that…each of them still managed to retain outstanding results. Far more outstanding than Nielong."

The room fell into silence again as the Ancestors stewed on their thoughts. 

A few moments later, Huang Maolong spoke again, "Evidently, we need to rapidly forge their cultivation. The generation has left them far behind, and the surrounding forces only continue to outshine us. If not, I'm afraid the surrounding forces will grow to true threatening levels."

At this Huang Zilong, Xilong, Wulong and even Shi Wei perked up. But not in intrigue but in severity graveness. 

Each of them instantly knew what Maolong was referring to, and it caused a considerable damper over Cain's group Martial talent. 

"To me, this is still highly suspicious. The Moon Ocean Palace seemed to be on a steady rise after so long. But above, the Phoenix's development has been far too rapid. Back in our generation, the Phoenixes were easily suppressed by us. But now, it seems like, with each day, a new batch of geniuses arises." Huang Nailong suddenly spoke up.

Huang Maolong calmly agreed, "Indeed. Moreover, with a quasi-mystic realm soon opening, the geniuses' cultivations will soar once again. By the time the Sea mystic realm opens, our generation can very well be in danger against them. Thus, we need continuous Moral victory to inspire our generation. With Cain, Kali, and Amber, I have a high assurance we can safely achieve this step."

Though on the surface, it seemed as if the Ancestors were in agreement, there still were some lingering questions in both Nailong and Xilong's minds. 

Huang Nailong decided to ask, "But Ancestor, can really say this will for sure work? We need to see them in actual combat, true life-or-death situations. If not, they can easily become unpolished jades that can easily be shattered. Their trip in the Lower Realms was virtually a walk in their courtyard."

Huang Xilong nodded, instantly agreeing with him. "I propose we send them towards a Divine Plane minor mystic realm after a small portion of the training. From there, we can obverse what could potentially life-changing."

"We will not do that." Shi Wei instantly opposed the idea, nearly a twinge of emotion leaking into her voice. "At least, we should wait until they reach competent cultivation levels. Skipping boundaries in the Mortal Path, whether they're small or large, is a common task for top-tier geniuses. Only when they reach the Divine Path should we truly test their abilities."

Huang Xilong slightly frowned, seeing Shi Wei's point but also having a firm belief in his own reasoning. 

He didn't let any emotion leak in his tone as he said, "Indeed, prowess in the Mortal Path isn't anything too shocking. However, very rarely would a genius have diminishing combat prowess. Less they purposely ruin their foundation, combat prowess stays virtually the same until the later success of cultivation. We simply can't invest all our time on potential and hope it will turn out good in the long run."

As he spoke, Shi Wei's piercing gaze never left Huang Xilong's eyes. 

Both Supreme Dragon Ancestors have massive beliefs in themselves and never exactly saw eye to eye. Especially when it comes to the children, arguments were bound to be raised over different ideologies. 

But at this moment, before an argument broke out, Huang Wulong said, "Shall we just use the illusion killing array? It may not be real life, but it's close to it as it can get." 

"...If we are going to do that, I shall be the one to monitor them and set the levels accordingly. Would that be a problem, Ancestor?" Shi Wei promptly asked without missing a beat.

Huang Maolong only needed a moment to think before slowly nodding. "No, you can handle it. But do bring Dai and Xun to the testing as well. I can fathom that those three talents are deeply affecting all of the Royal children. Rivalry is certainly good, but if we stand against each other too much, we will inevitably become weaker."

As his words hang in the air, the Dragon Ancestors didn't raise any objections. They all were more than clear of the benefits of working together than dividing off.

After a moment, Huang Maolong continued to say, "Now then, let's hurry to get everything set up.. The Nightmare Realm is opening very soon, and I wouldn't want them to miss this chance."
