In China, jousting for a spouse was a rather feudal method of finding a partner for marriage. Usually, it only occurred in the martial art circle and was rather rare.
Mo Wen had never imagined that they would encounter such a thing during their first day in Dragon City. Also, the person jousting for a spouse was actually a foreigner.
“Who knows where the foreign lady heard about this Hua Xian tradition? With much fanfare, she started jousting for a spouse in Dragon City fairly quickly.”
Tang Zhizhi was clearly powerless to act when faced with such an incident.
“Let’s go over and take a look,” Mo Wen said, somewhat interested. A foreigner was jousting for a spouse in Hua Xia. This was a rather refreshing scene.
The square was surrounded by people and was very lively. It was a big space, but right now it was almost full of people.
Mo Wen and Gong Biluo relied on their high cultivation to easily squeeze through to the front of the crowd. A banner had been hung in the center of the square. On it was written that this was a joust for a spouse, and the winner could bring home a beauty. But, if they lost, they had to become a servant for five years. All those under the age of fifty years could participate.
Fences surrounded a large empty space in the middle of the square. In the empty space, a woman was sitting on a gorgeous chaise longue. She lay on her side, her entire body emanating an enchanting aura. A few foreigners stood on both sides of the woman attending to her and managing affairs in the challenge area.
Mo Wen glanced over. As expected, the woman was very beautiful. She certainly had the means to attract people to participate in the challenge. She wore an elegant black gown and a pair of delicate stilettos. She was dressed in a very modern style. Her, long, thin, tender and fair legs were on display. They were slender and elegant, and she emanated a seductive aura.
Her hair and eyes were black, and a pure black at that. They were like black gemstones, unlike those foreigners from western countries with golden hair and blue eyes or blond hair and brown eyes. However, from her very three-dimensional facial features, one could tell that this woman was indeed a foreigner.
Such a beautiful woman was most likely rarely seen even overseas. What was most deadly was not this woman’s appearance, but her enchanting temperament that seemed to be constantly seducing others. She lay on her side on the chair like a noble but wild Persian cat.
What surprised Mo Wen was that those who participated in this joust for a spouse would actually have to defeat this woman.
In the Hua Xia martial art circle, some sects and clans that had beautiful maidens mostly sought ancient martial art practitioners with the potential to be their sons-in-law. Hence, they thought came up with the method of jousting for a spouse. They would set an age limit or a cultivation requirement for a participant. After defeating the predetermined opponent, the person would win the maiden’s hand in marriage. If they failed, they would leave.
It was rare for the woman to personally take part.
The square was very lively, but the empty space in the middle was very quiet. The woman that resembled a Persian cat lay on her side. She seemed to be napping. After a short while, she slowly opened her eyes and swept a glance at the crowd in the square. The corners of her mouth curled into a mischievous smile. She said, “What’s the matter? Does no one dare to come out again today? This is really disappointing. I’ve always heard that Hua Xia was bounteous and that it was a land where geniuses gathered and young heroes were countless. Right now, from the looks of it, it doesn’t seem to live up to its name.”
The mischievous woman’s words caused a commotion. A female foreigner was jousting for a spouse in Hua Xia, but no one dared to go up and take her on. It was indeed an embarrassing scene. Moreover, this woman would occasionally provoke them with a few words, making them even more frustrated.
But no matter how frustrated one was inside, they could not do anything about it. There were people who desperately wanted to fight for such a beautiful woman. Unfortunately, those who had tried had all failed and had become the woman’s servants.
This woman’s cultivation was rather frightening. In the last three days, no one who had exchanged blows with her had managed to last more than three hits.
Although her beauty was tempting, those who failed would become her servant for the next five years. They would have to obey every command and be beaten and punished as she pleased. This was definitely a frightening price to pay.
Therefore, in the square, there were many people who wanted to give it a try, but no one actually dared to make a move.
“This female foreigner is too arrogant. She dares to look down on Hua Xia’s ancient martial art practitioners in Dragon City. Isn’t that climbing on top of our heads and slapping us on the face? Could it be that there is no youthful strong practitioner in Hua Xia that can come out and take this woman down?”
“That imp! What has she done to earn the right to show off? If I defeat you, I guarantee that I will torment you eight to ten times a day! I’ll make sure you never act so arrogantly again!”
“This is a disgrace to our country. Could it be that no one dares to try?”
“You make it sound easy. Do you know who those slaves that are standing there obediently are? The youth on the far left is a strong practitioner ranked in the top ten in the Zhen Wu Mystery Dimension. Rumor has it that his cultivation has reached the pinnacle of the Golden Elixir Realm. However, he did not even last three hits against this woman before losing.”
“Also, do you know who the youth that is third from the left is? He is a strong practitioner that can rank among the top ten across all the mystery dimensions combined. He is one of the Floating Mystery Dimension’s top three geniuses, Zhou Xiaofeng. Rumor has it that three years ago, he became a Martial Arts Grandmaster. Such a frightening absolute strong practitioner actually did not last more than a few exchanges against this woman before losing. This woman’s cultivation is unfathomable. If it wasn’t, she would not have dared to set up a challenge ring in Dragon City.”
“This woman’s cultivation is too frightening. How could she possibly still be so young? I suspect that she is an old crone. Doesn’t the west have sketchy means to let people who are hundreds of years old retain their youthful appearance? This woman is most likely such a person. She set it up so that only those who were fifty years and below could go up and challenge her. Who could possibly be her opponent? If she did not set an age limit, this woman would most likely have already been settled by our Hua Xia experts.”

…
A row of young men stood to the side of the enchanting woman. They were all youths of Hua Xia. There were a total of six of them. They all stood with their heads lowered, looking as though they did not have the nerve to appear in public.
They were all youths of Hua Xia that had challenged the woman prior to this. However, without exception, all of them had lost. There was no shortage of experts among them.
There was a lot of discussion in the square. Mo Wen finally understood what was going on. No wonder so many people were gathered around here but no one dared to go up. Even young Martial Arts Grandmasters had been defeated by her. Such a deterrent was powerful.
“That woman is indeed quite attractive. What’s the matter? Are you interested in her?”
Gong Biluo looked at Mo Wen playfully. Her eyes were shining brightly as she looked at Mo Wen somewhat coldly.
Mo Wen retracted his gaze that was wandering over the enchanting woman’s body. He brightly said, “How could I be interested in her? How is it possible for her mediocre looks to interest me? I have seen a lot; normal people cannot catch my eye. In my eyes, only a beauty such as you, Biluo, is a true beauty. Others aren’t even worth mentioning. My heart belongs to you alone. How could I possibly be concerned with other women? The heavens and earth can be my witnesses.”
Moral integrity? Mo Wen did not understand the meaning of these two words.
“Hehe…”
Gong Biluo coldly chuckled twice and then said, “A flirtatious radish like yourself has actually managed to say such things. I suspect that in the entire world, only a person as shameless as you would manage to do so. I am also quite impressed. For my man to be shameless to such a high degree, should I feel proud of you?”
“You have such a great lord husband. You should feel proud,” Mo Wen said, continuing Gong Biluo’s words. He seemed to have not understood the meaning of her words at all.
Gong Biluo suddenly felt that she should not speak too much to people like Mo Wen.
The enchanting woman who had been lying on the chair and resting with her eyes closed suddenly opened them. Her gaze swept over the area they were standing in like lightning. More precisely, she looked at Mo Wen and Gong Biluo. Just now, in order to appease Gong Biluo, Mo Wen had said a lot of things that belittled this woman. Clearly, she had noticed it.
That gaze caused even Mo Wen to feel a chill over his entire body. It did not feel friendly.
The biggest insult a woman could be given was for others to claim that she was inferior to another woman. Not only had Mo Wen said so, but he had put it so nastily. Clearly, Mo Wen’s method of appeasing his female companion had successfully drawn the hatred of the enchanting woman.
Gong Biluo seemed to have also felt the woman’s gaze. The corners of her mouth curled into an arc. She lifted her chin slightly and locked gazes with the woman, refusing to yield. Sparks seemed to formlessly explode and the entire square was suddenly enveloped in a layer of razor-sharp killing spirit.
However, only a few people could sense this intense aura. Those with insufficient cultivation could not detect anything out of the ordinary at all.
A look of surprise flashed in Mo Wen’s eyes. The fact that Gong Biluo and that woman had secretly engaged could not escape his notice. What he had not imagined was that Gong Biluo seemed to not show any signs of weakness. Instead, she adopted a tough stance.
Mo Wen’s sensory ability was astonishing. He had cultivated Deified Soul Power. If a Primordial Soul Realm immortal cultivator did not intentionally hide their cultivation, he could immediately sense it. The mischievous woman that lay on the chair had unfathomable cultivation. She was at least a third realm Martial Arts Grandmaster. She was no weaker than the young master of the Ghost Lair that Mo Wen had encountered before. She was a rather frightening figure.
“Lord husband, that being said, I am not a jealous woman. Isn’t it normal for a man to be flirtatious? That woman’s looks are still passable. If you want her, I can allow her to be a concubine,” Gong Biluo said as she pampered Mo Wen’s ego. She wrapped her arm around Mo Wen’s, but her gaze was aimed at the mischievous woman. Gong Biluo clearly said this intentionally for her to hear.
“No, my heart only belongs to you. No other woman can catch my eye,” Mo Wen said resolutely. He looked as though she was the only one for him.
He wanted to take the challenge, but even if he was beaten to death, he could not go up. If he lost, he would need to endure the fate of five years as a slave. For a bet with such fanfare in Dragon City, it was likely that no one would dare to go against the agreement. Moreover, this woman was so incredible; the faction supporting her must also be powerful.
The woman’s cultivation was so high and her identity was so mysterious. Who knew what mysterious methods she had hidden? Mo Wen had no confidence in attaining victory at all. He would not offend such a woman if he could. With his current ability, he was still no match for this woman. Moreover, even if he won against her, it would not necessarily be as good a thing as he imagined.
“I guess my lord husband means to say that this woman has not caught your eye?” Gong Biluo said as she pursed her lips. She was obviously trying to anger the woman.
The mischievous woman that had been lying down all this while suddenly stood up. She looked towards Mo Wen and Gong Biluo. Wearing her exquisite high heels, she walked over proudly.
