While there were often many people waiting to enter the palace grounds, they usually waited in a proper line.

But what Lin Mu was seeing in front of him was a disorganized crowd.

"What's happening?" Lin Mu asked one of the persons standing there.

"You don't know?" The man replied looking at Lin Mu.

"No, I just arrived." Lin Mu denied it.

"The Crown Prince is recruiting people!" The man said with excitement clear in his tone.

"Recruiting people? For what?" Lin Mu raised his brows.

"We don't know yet. But a missive was sent out to the city. It said that the Crown Prince is offering a chance to the cultivators who are willing to stand with him and brave through dangers." The man explained.

Hearing this, Lin Mu was a bit confused as it didn't seem like a thing the Crown Prince would need to do.

'He has the support of the entire empire and its army. Why would he need to recruit others?' Lin Mu wondered.

"Everyone is waiting for their turn. The guards are bringing a few in at a single time." The man replied.

"So the entry isn't allowed right now?" Lin Mu asked.

"Unless you are a noble, you can't enter." The man shook his head.

~Sigh~

"Looks like I'll have to use another way…" Lin Mu muttered.

The man heard his words and chuckled.

"Best not do it, or the guards will throw you in the prison. A few tried and got a couple of years sentence already.' The man said. "Just wait in line for your turn."

"Ah, nothing like that." Lin Mu shook his head before taking out his communication jade slip.

He held it for a few seconds before putting it away.

The man saw Lin Mu doing that and couldn't understand it. But then, just fifteen seconds later something happened.
