The water mist in the clouds settles in the Floating Mountain, then turns into cascades, flowing downward under the sun’s rays, splashing into moist mist, hanging rainbows in the sky and earth.
Each Floating Mountain is a ’seat’, thousands of ters above the ground.
The higher the Floating Mountain, the closer it is to the Dark Cloud Peak at the top of the Ladder Tree, where the Glazed-Glass Dragon dwells, and the easier it is to convey voices to its ears.
If you can’t even ascend to the Floating Mountain, it’s best not to attend the eting lest you make a fool of yourself and lack the strength to fight for your tribe’s interests.
Shasha arrived early, alone occupying a Floating Mountain with plenty of cacti, quite near the top. After a dozen minutes, other Fourth Energy Level Magical Beasts and other tribe leaders of Magical Beasts arrived one after another.
A purple giant bird swept across the sky like lightning and landed on the peak, while a pitch-black shadow leopard strode forward from the interspersed shadows of the Floating Mountain to reach its seat.
A silver-white swarm of fireflies arrived, hazy like mist, transforming their mountain peak into a magnificent but poisonous rcury mountain; The leader of the ant swarm, though not strong, used nurous worker ants to form a pillar reaching to the sky, sending the queen to the peak.
Various tribes of Magical Beasts displayed their supernatural abilities, arriving at the Floating Mountains in order. They determined their seats without dispute, even encountering old enemies, they rely let out a low growl before cautiously raising their heads to look toward the peak scattered with stardust, and then quieting their voices.
Shasha watched this scene with interest, although its strength seed not strong on the surface, no other Magical Beasts dared to seize its position—Magical Beasts are not foolish, ten days were enough for them to figure out Shasha is the companion of the Glazed-Glass Dragon.
To be honest, it hadn’t really expected there would be so many Magical Beasts in the New Continent... But thinking carefully, even if only the coastal circle of the New Continent has an ecosystem, that’s equivalent to a whole nation in Terra Continent, and still a vast region. Though the territories occupied by the Three Great Beast Nations and Dawn Harbor are large, there are still plenty of ownerless areas not under any Beast’s control.
Not to ntion, this ti many Fourth Energy Level Beastmasters specially gave up dormancy to co; though they didn’t lead their tribes to grow, each tribe can live peacefully without anyone harming them.
[Besides those Fourth Energy Levels, it feels like these Third Energy Levels, I can handle them!]
Surveying the area, Shasha confird its strength was already quite strong—the Heart-Light Shield of the Third Energy Level can be worn down or even shattered by Fighting Spirit, while typical Third Energy Level attacks can’t inflict heavy damage on it.
Thus, victory would not be one-sided, Shasha believed it had a thirty to forty percent chance against most Third Energy Level Magical Beasts.
However, this only applies to Magical Beasts not cultivating the Arcane Pathway.
If all Magical Beasts cultivated the Arcane Pathway, it wouldn’t be able to suppress them in terms of cultivation thod.
Thinking of this, Shasha didn’t think Ian spreading the Arcane Pathway was bad, knowing well that only when everyone cultivates the Arcane Pathway, presents their insights and optimizes it, can Ian, who developed the Arcane Pathway, receive the greatest return, and it also may obtain better cultivation thods. Fighting Spirit cultivation thods and ditation techniques can beco stronger, surpassing all Sharks.
You gain by giving up, such is life!
Soon, as the sun reached its zenith, the eting was about to start.
And at the center of the Floating Mountains, within the Dark Cloud Peak shrouded by blue stardust, six azure light points began to glow, then the stars dispersed, entwining the Stardust Dragon overlooking the beasts.
[The eting begins]
The Glazed-Glass Dragon, or rather the Dragon, now respectfully called the Glass Emperor Dragon by all Magical Beasts, announced: [All Magical Beasts who have not arrived, are deed to have forfeited all rights to discussion, and must abide by every rule and policy proclaid by the Royal Court]
[As for now, we don’t need to adopt the customs of Humans, we can directly get to the main topic]
With these words, the Glazed-Glass Dragon indeed wasted no ti, directly announcing the initial ’Eight Royal Courts’ of the New Continent.
The ’Glaze King’s Court’ centered around the Ladder Tree is the main one, followed by the Abyssal Thousand-Limbs Dragon’s ’Abyssal Royal Court’, the Void Origin Winged Beetle’s ’Phantom Sun King’s Court’, and the Azure Sea King’s Court represented by Yan Sea, which are also the forr Three Great Beast Nations, remaining as part of the Royal Court.
The Void Origin Winged Beetle, though the mother insect is dead, is now managed by the Glaze King’s Court until a Fourth Energy Level reappears among their tribe, which is one royal court quota, each having sowhat decreased influence but not by much.
And the additional four royal courts, one is represented by two mighty generals under the Glazed-Glass Dragon, the White Demon and the Black Demon General representing the ’Mortal Bone King’s Court’, this royal court covers many small Magical Beasts of low strength, mainly mbers that were initially part of the Dragon Worship Cult established by the Glazed-Glass Dragon, who practiced Fighting Spirit and hold extre reverence for the Glazed-Glass Dragon.
They are located around the Gaia Plain surrounding the Ladder Tree, and are the core royal court of the Dragon Worship Cult.
Then, there is the Human Royal Court represented by Dawn Harbor. The Glazed-Glass Dragon collaborates with Far Shore Island for the New Continent and exchanges equally with Far Shore Island, whereas Dawn Harbor has been rged within the Glaze King’s Court as a subordinate organization. Although theoretically independent, if mbers of Dawn Harbor intrude upon other royal court territories or randomly slaughter Magical Beasts without permission, they will be punished by the Glazed-Glass Dragon.
And remaining are the two Magical Beasts who were first to swear allegiance to the Glazed-Glass Dragon, awakening from dormancy as Fourth Energy Level Magical Beasts.
They are represented by the living tree family, forming the ’Giantwood King’s Court’, and the Thunderwing Bird representing the ’Thundercliff King’s Court’.
These two royal courts mainly act as an example of rewarding those who first pledged loyalty, Ian couldn’t be stingy with them.
In fact, the Silver Fairy Silver Salt initially wanted to represent the Fae to join in, establishing a ’Fairy King Court’ for the New Continent. Ian originally intended to agree, but who knew Silver Salt would apply to Falling Star City and not return, either caught up by so eting or perhaps found the opportunity to establish a royal court too enticing, dragged by a group of Fae demanding to join them (Ian guessed this was most likely the case), causing an internal conflict they’ve not managed to resolve within ten days.
Ian was regretful, but at worst the next opportunity for establishing a royal court would go to the Fae, they simply won’t receive the first batch of limited edition titles.
In his design, there should be around ten royal courts under the Glaze King’s Court, covering winged Magical Beasts, Bug Demon Beasts, oceanic Magical Beasts, Mortal Bone Magical Beasts, Magical Plants, Spirit Energy Magical Beasts, and Humans. Additionally, they can govern over Fae, True Dragons, and various Ancient Demonic Beasts.
Thus, the rough frawork of the royal court was established, and next, the Glazed-Glass Dragon announced, strictly forbidding mutual predation among Wise Magical Beasts.
This command indeed shocked all the Magical Beasts present—everyone naturally didn’t want to be eaten, but if this were prohibited, what would they eat usually?
The multitude of Wise Magical Beasts in the New Continent has already beco part of the ecosystem, with many powerful Magical Beasts growing by hunting others, preventing them from eating each other, synonymous with death!
However, few Magical Beasts dared to angrily protest openly—because the icy gaze of the Glazed-Glass Dragon was sweeping across the entire Floating Mountains.
His attitude was explicit: If you think eating Wise Magical Beasts is reasonable, I’ll eat you imdiately.
Given this, only a few carnivorous Magical Beast leaders dared to speak, diplomatically asking the Glass Emperor Dragon what they should eat and survive after mutual predation was banned.
[It’s simple]
Then, the Glazed-Glass Dragon’s statent stunned all the Magical Beasts present: [As long as you give the spark or inheritance item of your respective tribe, I will naturally extract the ’crops’ and corresponding ’livestock’ from your tribes.]
[Don’t worry, I won’t seize your inheritance items, after extracting relevant information, I will return them to you, just as a backup lest you face extinction and I can’t restore them.]
