In the colosseum.

“Kill! Beasts, tear off her skin, bite off her limbs, and pull out her bones!”

“Hahaha, this is so exciting! Charge!”

A group of handsome boys and beautiful girls in gorgeous attire stared at the arena below with excitement. From time to time, there would be cheers, roars, and applause.

At the center of the colosseum, which was packed with spectators, was a round arena platform. A few bloodthirsty fire dogs had surrounded a girl who was covered in blood.

The girl ran for her life, but there were too many fire dogs, and they were strong. When they saw prey, they would fight each other to tear it apart. There was no way they were going to let her go.

Moments later, a large piece of bloody flesh was torn off the girl’s shoulder by a fire dog’s sharp claws, and the wound was so deep that the bone was visible.

However, the girl gritted her teeth and endured the pain without a word. She raised her head and forced her blood-drenched body to move. She had to memorize every single face present.

She would never forget anyone who had tortured her. As long as she survived, she would definitely escape this hellish place and mount a comeback. She would definitely have her revenge.

“Hahaha! My dear children, eat your fill! In any case, no matter how serious her injuries are, she’ll grow new flesh in the blink of an eye, so you’ll always have fresh food!”

The fire dogs’ owner was a cute, baby-faced girl. She was only 18 years old this year and her name was Cao Xinrui.

Cao Xinrui was also surrounded by a group of young men and women around her age, and they were all muttering with disdain.

“Xinrui, how did your royal family give birth to such a monster?”

“Yeah, how can there be monsters in the royal family? Back then, my life essence beast swallowed one of her hands, and her hand grew back out in a few days! Is she even human? She’s probably a demon, right?”

“How can a monster like her be worthy of living among humans like us? She should be thrown into the demons’ territory and live with those disgusting demonic beasts. She’s as strange as those wicked things…”

Cao Xinrui looked unhappy.

“Who said she’s from the royal family? A temptress seduced the emperor and gave birth to a little monster! That temptress b*tch shamed my empress aunt, so I’ll keep torturing this little monster until she dies! I don’t believe that she can heal herself forever. Her power will be exhausted sooner or later. In any case, the emperor doesn’t care about this little monster. She’s an illegitimate child who wasn’t even granted a name!”

Cao Xinrui cursed in anger, but when she saw that the girl’s leg was bitten off, she suddenly laughed in a carefree manner. The contrast between her baby face and her laughter at such a bloody scene looked really strange. She suddenly thought of something and said, “Let’s release all of the spirit beasts. Today is the day that my cousin awakens her spirit body and summons her life spirit beast, so let’s have a good time!”

As soon as she finished speaking, she raised her hand and prepared to release the beasts.

The next moment, a sharp voice was heard, “The princess has arrived!”

A young girl in bright and luxurious clothes walked up to the high platform arrogantly.

Cao Xinrui and the others panicked.

“Why are you here?”

“Yes, it’s too bloody here, it’ll scare you! Seeing cheap goods like her will dirty your eyes,” a few gentle-looking boys said carefully.

The imperial princess, Shi Xunmei, looked down at her half-sister, whoshould have been as noble as her. At this time, her half-sister was lying in a pool of blood, dying.

An expression of disdain and disgust flashed across Shi Xunmei’s eyes, but she pretended to be sympathetic.

“She’s already pitiful enough. She hasn’t even been acknowledged by my royal father since she was born. Please stop torturing her.”

“Princess, you’re too kind!”

“Cousin, her mother, a lowly servant, actually seduced the emperor and shamed the empress, the entire royal family, and the Cao family. How could you let her go? Aunt is from the Cao family, one of the top ten families in the Divine Realm, and is the most talented woman in the family. It’s already a grievance that she had to marry into the Canglan Kingdom and become the empress there. There can only be one empress in the Canglan Kingdom!” Cao Xinrui said angrily.

Shi Xunmei looked at Cao Xinrui and smiled. “Even so, she’s innocent.”

The girl lying in the pool of blood laughed when she heard this, revealing her white teeth that were stained with blood.

Shi Xunmei had the mouth of Buddha but the heart of a snake. If she really felt that she was innocent, why did she not take her away? Instead, she allowed her to remain locked up and tortured here for eighteen years.

The young girl clenched her fists tightly. Soon, she would be able to escape! Today was her chance. She had been counting the days. Although the Canglan Kingdom was only a small country in the Divine Realm, the people here would awaken their spirit body on their eighteenth birthday and summon their first life spirit beast!
