Unlike the 5th and 6th princes, the 10th prince got his aims at the beautiful clones. Still, the ladies before him were even more attractive and arousing as he observed them closely.

There was a dragon girl, two nine-tailed fox-kin ladies, a catgirl, and a human. All of them were peerless rare beauties, endowed with seductive bodies. He would use this opportunity to defeat them through a legal duel and claim all the beauties for himself. He would properly discipline them himself for their rudeness and arrogance later.

Although their employer would soon redeem them and the purchased items, he would already lay a hand on those beauties, including the highest-tier female clones and androids they recently purchased. By then, nobody would snatch what was rightfully his, and those he had his eyes on could never belong to someone else.

Unfortunately, his challenge was accepted without any hesitation. They were completely fearless despite having offended three princes at once.

"So, the duel is in an hour at the Stellar Arena. It’s a three-on-three, a battle of mechs, am I right?" Xentia read the newly registered duel challenge.

"Don’t try to run away from this. We won’t let you go even if you beg. It would be best to call your employer or whoever, or you won’t be able to get out of this." Cedric squinted his eyes. He found it was unpleasant to cooperate with the 10th prince, but it couldn’t be helped.

A big cake had to be divided properly or it would be ruined by the time they fought to get a piece of it.

’Master, we have successfully provoked them into a duel. We’ll educate them in their own game, and they will owe us a huge compensation.’ Xentia was excited to blackmail these three princes, just as they had intended to her family’s merchant group.

’Thank you, Xen. But it seems we need to add one more to the list. Euphemia, the 12th imperial princess, also wished to teach us a lesson.’ Elysia took out a handkerchief and handed it over to Euphemia’s hand.

"What do you mean by this?" Euphemia was confused. She found this young lady attractive and met her standards. Truth be told, she wished to recruit this brave and kind young lady to her banner, but this young lady suddenly gave her a handkerchief out of the blue.

"I am the one you seek." Elysia said coolly. Her voice cut through the tension, and attention was soon drawn to her. "Your inability to secure what you wanted is hardly my concern. If you have an issue with me, I suggest we resolve it in the Stellar Arena just like what your brothers issued. I won’t allow anyone to bully and oppress my people."

"What the-" Euphemia was momentarily taken aback. The three princes were also shocked.

Althar was the first to recover. He spoke with a tone dripping with emphasis. "So, you’re the one behind this suspicious merchant. Do you think your wealth makes you untouchable? We could make things... difficult for you."

"You could try. But it wouldn’t be wise. Not even your royal father dared to threaten us. But well, let’s meet again at the Stellar Arena in an hour." Elysia changed her attitude to the aloof lady. She covered her mouth with a folding fan.

A mid-sized mech soon approached, extending its hand to pick her and Fortuna up.

By the time Euphemia and the curious onlookers recovered from their shock, the mysterious lady who backed up the Guardian of Dream had already flown back to the city-sized mothership, escorted by her professional agents.

The big boss behind the recent purchase sensation was actually a young lady who stood among them just a moment ago. Not even the old sage could guess she was someone important because she mingled among the crowd and mob when her people handled the issue for her!

"Hehe... ha ha ha! Fine, you played me through! Are you capable of fighting four imperial descendants at once? I want to see it with my own eyes!" Euphemia snapped, exclaiming with laughter as she covered her face. She truly did not expect the harmless-looking young lady who caught her attention to be the one she was about to teach a lesson.

"My lady, we did a background check and the Guardian of Dream and its leader. It has a suspicious bio. We still can’t find out their track records and source of funds." The loyal assistant lady came to Euphemia’s side, showing a virtual screen filled with data.

"Their leader is El. So, that cheeky girl is El, huh. I wonder how her expression will be when she cries later. Her wealth and arrogance won’t save her ass after taunting me." Euphemia brushed things aside because she knew that El’s family obviously hid those data well.

A Duke household would easily manipulate it so their daughter could experience life anonymously, but that was not how the world worked. After what happened, this girl would suffer because of offending someone who shouldn’t be offended.

Euphemia’s group soon left the terminal to prepare, and so did the three princes and the curious onlookers.

The news spread like wildfire, and the duel between a merchant who had just created a sensation would face four royal bloods at once in the Stellar Arena.

Thousands of spectators immediately rushed to the Stellar Arena to buy tickets to watch an event they did not want to miss. Unfortunately, the seats were only available for two thousand people, and the others who failed to get tickets could only grumble as they could do nothing about it.

Since it was a sacred duel, only the audience could witness the event. Nothing would be broadcast as it was one of the rules for a sacred duel.

While the commotion was happening in the Imperial Palace, Aegis just watched everything with interest. The immortal lady had so much free time and she would soon bully his descendants. However, he did not mind it since his descendants had to face many hardships and setbacks in life so they could be worthy of the royal blood.

As for now, even though tens of thousands of years have passed since he cultivated his imperial family, not a single one of the nearly two thousand descendants could satisfy him. No one managed to impress him, let alone worthy of his recognition.

He wouldn’t guide them, so they had to find their own fortuitous encounters. And the current opportunity was so grand since it involved a true immortal. If at least one could receive the favor and guidance from such a higher being, then it would be their best luck of all time.

Meanwhile, Elysia had just held a meeting with her family, disciples, and representative elders at ES Nirvana’s central command. Since the duel was a four-on-four, she needed three companions who would go with her to fight the four arrogant imperial descendants.

"Uh, Xentia will obviously be included since our master’s new exclusive mech is a set with her as well. So, who are the three chosen ones for the duel?" Sylvia looked at everyone. It was a tough decision since everyone had the same intention to join in helping their master teach those arrogant brats a lesson.

"Let’s draw lots. They can’t even afford tier-8 mech, so our mech’s power won’t be inferior to theirs." Elysia put her hands together, proposing an idea.

"Let’s do that. This one will be a fair lot. No cheating, no grudge, complaints, and regrets. It’s just a fun game for a little duel, okay?" Lifa reminded everyone to make sure there would be no disputes afterward.

Once everyone voiced their agreement, Lifa prepared a large box with many cards inside. It was a similar method used in the magic academy’s lottery, but Elysia, Elena, Ai, and Zera would be the ones overseeing it.

"No way!" Sylvia was the first to draw her card, but it was blank which indicated that she was not the chosen one.

"No cheating." Elena reminded once again.

"Mm..." Fortuna meekly nodded and took a card from the box. Unfortunately, she also got a blank card. She suspected the box had a glitch. "Oh, hmm?"

Noticing Fortuna’s doubtful gaze, suspecting the box, Ai immediately spoke up. "We just messed with the divinities and divine senses that ignore your original luck point. You need a momentary pure stroke of luck."

"Too bad." Fortuna lowered her shoulders with disappointment. As the Goddess of Luck and Fortune, she got defeated in a game that required a stroke of pure raw luck...

Everyone received a chance to draw one card, but only three cards had the crossing-blades symbol.

Yuuki and Morfina got the card right, and they would accompany their master for the duel, but the last one still had yet to be concluded.

"A-ah~ I’m unlucky." Miko pulled her card and she also received a blank card.

One more person needed to accompany her mama for the duel, and only her saintess friends had yet to draw the card. As for the cards in the box, there were still more than a hundred of them. If the last card still hadn’t appeared after her saintess friends, the draw would be restarted to find the last chosen one for the duel.

"Mi, Miko, I feel so nervous. Should we just forfeit it and give the chance to the others?" Mingyue grabbed Miko’s arm, expressing her nervousness and worry.

"Fufu, this is just a fun game. Try your luck. It’s your luck and opportunity if you can fight alongside my mama, you know." Miko pressed her finger to Mingyue’s lips with a soft giggle, reassuring her restless friend.

"Uhm." Mingyue nodded in understanding. What Miko said was true.

She took the card, and it was a blank card. She wasn’t as lucky as she had expected, but somehow, she felt relieved because she wasn’t ready to fight alongside the Sacred Sakura Goddess yet. She could mess up during the battle and become a burden, and she didn’t want to embarrass herself. Moreover, it was a mech battle that she still hadn’t fully mastered.

Meiying became the last one to draw the card, believing that she couldn’t win the chance just like her saintess friends. Unfortunately, fate had other plans for her.

"E-eh?" Meiying stared at the card in her hand with a pale expression, trembling slightly as she somehow felt a sudden weight being placed on her shoulders.
