Many people are looking up here, really a bit worried the two will start fighting imdiately.
Li Jiachen hesitated for a mont, picked up his al box, stood up, and left, leaving a sentence behind:
"I’ll let you live for a couple more days, just wait and see!"
Yang Xiao couldn’t be bothered, leisurely enjoying his al. The food here is from outer space; the cooking thods are average, but the ingredients have a special taste and powerful energy.
Du Tianxing glanced at Yang Xiao, hesitated for a mont, then lowered his head.
His strength has grown significantly, from the forr King of Magic City, to now occupying two provinces and the grasslands. Compared to Yang Xiao’s territory, they are not on the sa level, especially since he has nurous experts under his command, including hundreds with Enhanced Gene Advanced.
He originally thought that Yang Xiao would quickly break through to King Level, but the contestant list in the hotel lobby showed that Yang Xiao’s level is only at Enhanced Gene Interdiate. This was a huge disappointnt. He guessed that Yang Xiao’s bottleneck in Genetic Evolution is at the Interdiate Enhanced Gene stage, sothing he has seen often. If that’s the case, Yang Xiao is of no value to him, given the significant gap between their levels.
He and Yang Xiao are no longer on the sa scale; he has ntally lowered Yang Xiao several tiers and is no longer willing to associate with him like before.
Du Tianxing has a small goal: to unify most of the southern provinces of Xuanming Country. A future conflict with Yang Xiao is inevitable, so rather than an awkward future, it’s better to cool down their relationship now and let their fists do the talking.
A young man hesitated for a mont, then walked up to Yang Xiao’s table.
"Brother, I’m from Luoying City, my na is Jiang Tao. Can I sit down and chat with you?"
Yang Xiao smiled and said:
"We t during the training session in Magic City last ti, and even had drinks together, right?"
"Yes, Brother Yang has a good mory. I thought you wouldn’t rember ."
Jiang Tao sat down, chatted casually, then lowered his voice:
"Brother Yang, that King from Qingyun City is tough. It’s best if you avoid his sharp edge."
"How can I avoid it? You all saw it, that mad dog is chasing after now."
Jiang Tao sighed and said:
"Yang Xiao, I am staying in room 28. If it’s convenient for you, co to my room to chat tonight, or I can co to your room."
Yang Xiao smiled and said:
"You are worried that Du Tianxing will next devour your Luoying City and want to invite to join forces against him, right?"
Jiang Tao’s face turned awkward; in this restaurant, everyone could pretty much hear them as all have high Agility attributes, which allows them to hear extrely subtle sounds.
Du Tianxing, sitting a few tables away, naturally heard this and imdiately frowned slightly.
"This?"
Jiang Tao quickly gestured with his eyes to stop Yang Xiao from continuing.
However, Yang Xiao laughed and said:
"I’m no match for the King of Magic City. You better go talk to him directly. It might be a viable compromise to depend on him, accept his protection, and join his group."
This King of Luoying City hasn’t evolved to King Level, only at the Advanced Enhanced Gene Peak. Hearing Yang Xiao’s words, he looked visibly frustrated.
Who wouldn’t want to be a king themselves? Depending on others ultimately ans losing the pride of a king.
Yang Xiao intentionally added:
"I won’t be King of Kongming City much longer either. I estimate after the eting at Wentian City disperses, that mad dog from Qingyun City will lead his army to attack Kongming City. I’m now a clay Buddha crossing the river—barely able to save myself. Brother Jiang, better think of another plan."
Now, Yang Xiao has no plans to ally with anyone. Everyone is unreliable, and who knows when they might stab you in the back.
Embarrassed, Jiang Tao stood up, picked up his al box, and walked away.
Yang Xiao deliberately looked up at Du Tianxing; Du Tianxing saw him, expressionless, and kept his head down eating.
After dinner, everyone continued back to the sixth floor to rest.
This night, without any beautiful won to accompany, left many feeling disappointed.
Soone even ran out to ask the Iron Tower Warriors on duty:
"Any services tonight?"
The Iron Tower Warrior coldly replied:
"Sleep!"
Then soone sighed:
"The service level at Wentian City is really too low; next ti, we’ll strongly demand to hold the eting in Magic City."
Everyone laughed, and that was the only mont of humor that day.
There were no incidents the previous night, and early the next morning, after having breakfast, everyone was brought to a large hall thousands of square ters in size on the third floor.
Two Iron Tower Warriors stood at the entrance of the hall. As Yang Xiao and the others entered, they were all surprised.
Inside the hall, there were a dozen people in black sitting on the floor, among whom was Master Long.
Additionally, surrounding the hall stood several Iron Tower Warriors, two of whom wore silver Armor, visibly different from the rest, making them particularly conspicuous.
Once everyone had entered, the doors of the hall were closed, guarded by two Iron Tower Warriors.
Yang Xiao and the others stood in the center of the hall, no one daring to speak, feeling a significant pressure emanating from those in black.
Master Long stood up and said:
"Welco everyone. This is our second eting. Compared to last ti, your Genetic Evolution Levels have improved significantly. This ti, we have gathered here for a simple test event to see what progress you have made in terms of Genetic Evolution,
Simply put, it involves conducting a simple fighting contest among the forty-two of you."
"Fighting contest?"
Everyone was taken aback. This was the first they heard of the eting’s agenda, having assud it was like the training in Magic City, not expecting it to be a combat competition.
Yang Xiao was quite calm, having heard a little rumor from Gu Bo.
"Yes, a fighting contest. In this event, we will select the top three contestants. These three will receive a precious Genetic Transformation Pill, which can enhance your Genetic Evolution Space by at least one level."
"Genetic Transformation Pill? At least one level?"
It was well known that after many had broken through to King Level, further breakthroughs were exceptionally challenging, regardless of how much Genetic Potion they consud, due to reaching an Evolution Bottleneck.
Now, Master Long ntioned a reward of a Genetic Transformation Pill, which could enhance Evolution Space by at least one level. For people like Gu Beifeng, this was an incredible temptation, allowing them to fully master the Primary Stage of King Level and advance towards the Interdiate Stage of King Level.
"That sounds like a worthwhile event. I like it,"
Li Jiachen said with a smile.
Du Tianxing also said:
"I’m looking forward to it."
Gu Beifeng jokingly said:
"I’ve set my eyes on one of those three Elixir dicines."
...
Everyone showed a strong desire for the Genetic Transformation Pill.
Master Long gave a slight smile and continued:
"This combat tournant will be hosted by myself and Master Long Wei,"
Master Long gestured to Long Wei sitting beside him.
Long Wei, looking serious, nodded slightly.
"There are forty-two of you, the first round will be decided by drawing lots, the loser gets eliminated directly, and the winner moves on to the next round. Okay, now to draw lots."
With a wave of his hand, a black box floated up in front of everyone, hovering in mid-air.
"There are forty-two numbers in the box, number 1 versus number 2, number 3 versus number 4, and so on."
Gu Beifeng stood at the front and drew a small plaque from the black box, which read number 1.
Du Tianxing was the second to draw, getting number 15.
The rest drew in turn, arranging themselves in order according to their numbers, from 1 to 42.
Yang Xiao was the last to draw and ended up with number 42.
He thought to himself, what good luck.
Then he heard soone calling:
"I’m number 41, who’s 42?"
It was Jiang Tao, the King of Luoying City.
