Li Xiu regretted not having thought of this issue yesterday when negotiating the terms; otherwise, he could have brought it up as a condition.
But on second thought, if he went to Li Qingyi to ask for soone, it would be like telling the Longevity Association that the relationship between Sha Chu and him was special, which had both advantages and disadvantages.
After careful consideration, Li Xiu decided not to ntion Sha Chu and wait for her to co back on her own.
As soon as the promotional photos of Li Qingyi and Snow Princess were released, it wasn’t long before they hit the trending list.
Topics like the most beautiful Trial Taker and the world’s number one Demon Spirit occupied the trending list continuously.
Originally, several cities hosting Demon Spirit tournants and buying trending topics saw their efforts overshadowed, leaving those who had spent a fortune on promotion quite frustrated.
Chu Jun wanted to strike while the iron was hot and hold another Demon Spirit tournant next month, but Li Xiu vetoed it.
"Our City of Light’s Demon Spirit tournant is only held once a year," Li Xiu said.
"Isn’t once a year too little? At this rate, we’ll be quickly replaced by other cities. It should be at least twice a year, or we could start a Demon Spirit league to maintain the hype..." Chu Jun didn’t understand why they weren’t taking advantage of the current popularity to host more Demon Spirit tournants and consolidate the City of Light’s tournant’s status.
"Given our current environnt and strength, a league is unrealistic; there aren’t enough high-level Demon Spirits who will participate in our league. If we were to fill it with subpar participants and compare it to those big powers’ tournants, our hard-won image as the Demon Spirit Capital might collapse quickly. Instead of fighting with them to the death, it’s better to step up and make money over them," Li Xiu said with a smile.
"What do you an?" Chu Jun didn’t quite grasp Li Xiu’s aning.
"Didn’t we have a Demon Spirit ranking before? Just get that up and running again; make it as authoritative as possible. We don’t need to include only our own Demon Spirits; include those from other tournants as well. Try to keep the rankings fair and just, but there’s one thing to rember: the top few must be our own Demon Spirits, especially the top three," Li Xiu said.
"I understand now. As long as we get this up, no matter how powerful the other tournant’s Demon Spirits are, they’ll never be acknowledged as the world’s top unless they defeat ours..." Chu Jun imdiately understood Li Xiu’s intent.
"Rember to put Snow Princess in the first position; if need be, we can give way in rankings for our other Demon Spirits, but Snow Princess must be on top," Li Xiu thought and added.
"Understood, you’re using Snow Princess as a target. Won’t that be unfair to the little girl? Can she handle it?" Chu Jun asked, feeling a bit sorry.
"If she can’t handle it, are you going to? I certainly won’t," Li Xiu said, spreading his hands.
"Then let her handle it; I certainly can’t," Chu Jun said quickly.
"Then go take care of it. Whether we can successfully host next year’s Demon Spirit tournant depends on this ranking, so put so effort into it." After sending Chu Jun away, Li Xiu planned to find ti to go to the Golden Gate to collect more Demon Cores, both to enhance his Primordial Embryo’s quality and to level up Jedi Knight and Demigod Shana.
The next Demon Spirit tournant won’t be at the current level; at least an S-Class Demon Spirit will be needed to hold the fort.
This is one of the reasons why Li Xiu didn’t want to rush into holding the second Demon Spirit tournant; he needed ti for his Demon Spirits to grow.
Li Xiu was about to head out when he suddenly felt a chill, instantly summoning Jedi Knight to stand before him.
The mont Jedi Knight appeared, his entire body ignited with crimson Light Fla, grasping the sword with both hands as he slashed towards the door direction, the Light Fla gathering into the Samurai Sword.
He had activated the Desperate Realm and Unrivaled National Hero skills the instant he appeared.
Crack!
A Golden Arrow whistled through the air, striking Jedi Knight’s Samurai Sword and breaking the blade, yet the Golden Arrow did not stop, piercing through Jedi Knight’s shoulder and armor, still shooting towards Li Xiu like golden lightning.
Li Xiu had already moved back with all his might, yet the Golden Arrow seed to have eyes, stopping in front of his chest at an incredible speed.
Li Xiu broke into a cold sweat; if the other party hadn’t ant to kill him, this arrow might have already pierced his heart.
Li Xiu stood motionless, ignoring the Golden Arrow at his chest, his eyes gazing outside the door.
He watched as a figure walked towards him from the sky, enveloped in golden radiance, like a deity walking on air, appearing to move slowly but arriving at the doorway within a few steps.
"Super Spirit Tester, who are you?" Li Xiu stared at the man, but the golden light on him was so dazzling that it obscured his features, only hinting at a tall and strong build, holding a longbow that also radiated golden divine light.
"You have no right to know who I am; you only need to know that all your reliance is nothing but trash in front of , killing you as simple as crushing an ant is enough." The man said contemptuously, "From now on, whatever Qingyi tells you to do, you do it; if you ever dare to defy again, next ti, the arrow will pierce your chest."
"You can try and see if it can pierce my chest." Li Xiu raised a hand to stop Ye Xiyuan and Qin Shi, who rushed outside in Demon Armor, signaling them not to co in.
This was a Super Spirit Tester; they were not opponents.
The man glanced at Li Xiu, and the Golden Arrow suddenly moved another inch, piercing through Li Xiu’s coat, but it ultimately stopped, not piercing his chest.
Li Xiu rely looked at him coldly, without moving an inch.
The man reached out, catching the Golden Arrow, which flew back into his hand, casually putting it back into the quiver on his back.
"Rember my words; if it happens again, not even God will save your life." Saying this, the man turned and left, vanishing like a streak of golden lightning.
"City Lord, are you alright?" The Ye siblings, Qin Shi, Chu Jun, and A Fei rushed in.
"I’m fine. Go back to your work and don’t spread this matter around." After sending them away, Li Xiu used the Undying Bullet to heal the injured Jedi Knight, discovering that the bullet could even repair the broken Samurai Sword.
After finishing all this, he put Jedi Knight away, then took off his damaged coat, only to find that the Godslayer Shrine had stuck to his chest, unsure of how it got in.
