Dragon's Origin

Sitting in their private box, Wang Sheng, the old Taoist, Mei'er, and蔷薇 (Qiangwei) quietly waited for the royal family to report the important figures attending the concert.

The royal family certainly paid close attention to this intelligence, and they would have collected it even without Wang Sheng's prompting. Wang Sheng's request simply meant sending an extra copy to him. For the royal family, it was a small favor with great returns, so why not?

"People from the Duke's mansion have all arrived."

"Six Abbots from the Old Lord Temple have come, including the Grand Abbot. The rest are all high-ranking Taoists of the Qing generation."

"Thirteen Red Brand assassins from Worry-Free City have arrived, including the city lord's steward."

"The owner of Imperial Treasure Pavilion and his personal maid have arrived. Master Lu brought eight guards."

"The owner of Baoqing Surplus Hall brought three guards."

"Six elder-level ministers from the Song Kingdom have arrived, bringing a total of more than thirty guards."

"Three elder-level ministers from the Tang Kingdom have arrived, bringing seven guards."

......

A series of messages kept coming, giving Wang Sheng a preliminary assessment of the concert's influence.

Judging from the messages, elder-level ministers from all major principalities were present, with a minimum of two and a maximum of six, like the Song Kingdom. It could be said that the concert's influence had completely spread, and all countries attached great importance to it.

The so-called guard experts brought by each principality were basically all at the peak of the eighth level, ready to break through at any time. Rarely, there were those in the late stage of the eighth level. According to the previous experience, there was a great possibility for such experts to break through.

However, perhaps due to security concerns, the most important figures from each country were the elder-level ministers, the highest-ranking of whom should be the Grand Elder of the Xia Kingdom. As for the rulers, none of them came. This was understandable, considering the importance of a ruler's identity. If they came and were detained or assassinated by the royal family, it would be a major event.

On the other hand, commercial families like Imperial Treasure Pavilion and Baoqing Surplus Hall did not have this concern. Lu Wenhou brought Ling'er, and Master Zhu personally attended with a few guards.

Both the Emperor and Wang Sheng were very satisfied with this. Although the rulers of the various countries did not come, at least elder-level ministers had arrived. This meant that Wang Sheng's concept of a cultural and artistic center, which he had discussed with the Emperor, had slowly gained fame. As long as such opportunities came a few more times, allowing people to see the absolutely safe atmosphere here, it was believed that some rulers would dare to break the norm and come to appreciate it.

There were many experts present today. It could be said that, apart from Wang Sheng's group, 99% of the others were experts at the peak of the eighth level. Even the Emperor and the three Grand Masters of the royal family were all present for every performance. It was believed that the three Grand Masters would definitely gain something more after this.

There were only a few people whose cultivation was insufficient: Lu Wenhou, Ling'er, Master Zhu, and the steward from Worry-Free City. However, these people's identities were not simple. Even if they had not reached the eighth level, they were basically at the peak of their respective realms, just waiting to break through.

The last experience told everyone that this concert might last for two to three days, so the Imperial Guards had long been heavily guarded, protecting the area within two hundred meters around the Royal Grand Theater.

This was not all. This time, because important figures and experts from various parties had arrived, each party had brought a considerable number of powerful guards. The Emperor was very generous, allowing these people from various parties to temporarily form a patrol team to patrol around the Royal Grand Theater during the performance. If there were any disturbances, these patrol teams, themed around the Legendary Realm, would collectively take action.

The Emperor's attitude surprised the various parties, but they were also very satisfied. This meant that their safety was not only maintained by the Emperor's Imperial Guards, but also largely in the hands of the experts they brought.

As for how the various parties coordinated, it was easy. No matter what grudges or unpleasantness they had before, coming to the capital meant that their only goal was to ensure the successful completion of the concert and to protect the family members inside to safely advance and break through. As long as they were within the capital, everyone agreed that no one could take action.

After hearing this, Wang Sheng gave the Emperor a thumbs up. Imperceptibly, the Emperor had conveyed the concept of the capital as a neutral place where all parties could lay down their weapons and not fight. If the same situation occurred a few more times, everyone would basically accept this concept. In the future, whenever the capital was mentioned, it would be a neutral place where no fighting was allowed.

Outside the Royal Grand Theater, there was a special team ready to move at any time. Whether it was the Imperial Guards or the expert guards from various parties, they were all very courteous to this team. There was no other reason than that this was a medical team, ready to use stretchers to carry out and treat those Grand Masters after the performance. Everyone knew that a performance was a huge drain on these Grand Masters, and no one would delay their rescue.

It seemed that a performance by the Grand Masters would cause a great drain, but the Grand Masters in the midst of it all were actually very clear that they were indeed tired, so tired that they could not get up and did not want to move a finger. However, during the continuous days of performance, while the audience was being guided to advance and break through, they were also enjoying the nourishment of the spiritual energy clusters.

After each performance, they could feel that their realm had improved again. This was quite attractive to the Grand Masters, but more importantly, after each performance, they would have a deeper understanding of their performance skills, a deeper understanding of the music, the instruments, and the conductor, which would allow them to further their musical attainments. This was what they valued most. Therefore, when they heard that there was to be a formal performance, every Grand Master was very enthusiastic.

Of course, it was their greatest pleasure to carefully listen to the comments of Wang Sheng, a master whose hearing was extremely professional. Who could have realized before that their breathing, heartbeat, and even the friction of their clothing could bring different effects during their performance?

For this reason, Wang Sheng even designed a set of performance clothes for each Grand Master that would not affect their performance in any way. It was completely different from the wide robes and large sleeves they used to wear when performing, and it was more neat, but it was not rude at all. As expected of a Grand Master in the field of clothing design, he could design beautiful women's clothing that would make everyone unable to take their eyes off of it, and he could also design highly professional clothing such as protective clothing and performance clothing.

In the expectant mood of all parties, Master Yu led the Grand Master musicians out in single file, walked onto the stage, and began to salute the audience.

The performance was about to begin.
