Walking into the city, the bustle in the city formed a stark contrast with the desolation at the city gates. As the Braveheart Martial Arts Tournament was going to be held today, Shi Xiaobai saw many different races on the streets.
According to Moya, the Braveheart Martial Arts Tournament welcomed Bravehearts of various races. From the looks of it, the races of this world still had the feeling of a hundred schools of thought contending with each other.
Along the way, Shi Xiaobai mostly saw dark green-skinned dwarves. Clearly, this was the common image of the Transcendents.
However, it seemed like every dwarf had an air of superiority about them, as though they were superior to the other races.
However, the strange thing was that in the conversations they heard along the way, the Bravehearts from other races were clearly being mocked and ridiculed, but they kept on humbling themselves, as if being looked down upon by the green-skinned dwarf was a matter of course.
Be it the three-meter-tall ape-headed man, the ferocious-looking tiger-headed man, or the strange-looking snake-bodied man, all of them were extremely respectful to the green-skinned dwarves in the city.
It was as though even the most ordinary Transcendent commoner would look at the Bravehearts of other races with contempt.
And what left Shi Xiaobai most speechless was that these foreign Bravehearts, who had been belittled, would look at him with contempt!
This blatant racial disparity was infuriating.
Shi Xiaobai nearly drew his sword to slaughter these strange and ugly foreign Bravehearts.
A gigantic towering tree had diverted Shi Xiaobai's attention, indirectly saving the foreign Bravehearts.
This towering tree was located in the middle of the city. It was hundreds of meters tall, so it could be seen from the periphery of the city.
Not only was the gigantic tree terrifyingly tall, its appearance was extremely strange. The tree trunk and branches were brownish-black in color, but they shimmered with a metallic luster. And the leaves were like crystals that reflected the sun's rays. The massive tree crown was enveloped in a colorful glow.
"This is the holy tree of us Transcendents. Its name is the Transcendence Holy Tree. It has the power of gods. When the Infernal King's army invades, the Transcendence Holy Tree will bestow divine power, allowing the Transcendent Bravehearts to be even more valiant!"
Moya was clearly accustomed to outsiders swallowing their saliva in shock the moment they saw the Transcendence Holy Tree. He proudly introduced it.
However, what Moya could never have imagined was that this human in front of him swallowed his saliva not because he was shocked, but because he was greedy!
He was several kilometers away from the holy tree, but Shi Xiaobai could still vaguely smell the fragrance emitted by the leaves. It was different from a refreshing fragrance. To him, it was the fragrance of delicious food.
What would this crystal leaf taste like?
Shi Xiaobai swallowed a mouthful of saliva once again. After a while, he forcefully suppressed the terrifying appetite that had nearly been stirred.
…
Along the way, the closer they got to the center of the city, the more prosperous the scene became. Although the buildings exuded a medieval style, they were frequently decorated with gold, crystals, and other rare ornaments, making these buildings look luxurious.
Nearly every brick in Transcendence's royal palace was embellished with gold. It looked extremely extravagant.
After passing by the royal palace, they finally arrived at the guest house that the Transcendents prepared for foreign Bravehearts.
Although these guest houses were not luxurious, they were still very spacious and clean.
However, Moya did not stop at any of the houses. Instead, he walked towards a corner.
"That place is where you humans rest."
Moya pointed to the corner.
When Shi Xiaobai walked over to take a look, he immediately frowned deeply.
It was a narrow house. Compared to the long rows of houses, it looked dark and dirty on the outside, not to mention the huge difference in space inside.
It looked like a stable in a high-class hotel.
This was a guest house prepared for them humans!?
Shi Xiaobai's eyes were filled with anger.
Moya said with a chuckle, "I'm very sorry. Due to the sudden appearance of you humans with a Braveheart spot, it has exceeded our expectations. As there are too many foreign Bravehearts coming to this tournament, there is a shortage of rooms. We can only temporarily let you stay here. I'm really sorry about that."
The green-skinned dwarf said apologetic words, but his expression and tone did not sound apologetic at all.
Shi Xiaobai took a deep breath and said coldly, "All of you will soon feel regret for what you have done."
Although he knew that the Transcendents were not real existences, but NPCs created by the assessment program, Shi Xiaobai nearly lost his mind from anger when he received such a racial disparity.
However, Shi Xiaobai vaguely realized that if his anger were to boil, it would be an extremely terrifying matter.
Hence, he forcefully repressed his anger.
Moya said in a deadpan manner, "It looks like you are very angry, but that's normal. You should cherish this moment of anger. This is because after you witness the power of the Transcendents, you will only be left with awe and fear. Look at those alien races. They are the same as you humans. In the beginning, they were grumbling and resentful of the unfair treatment, but now, they can accept it with a clear conscience. That's because the world is unfair to begin with. From the moment one is born into a race, they are already destined to be distinguished. Then, we will meet again at the tournament. If you want to prove your status as a human, that will be the best opportunity. "
After Moya said that, he turned around and left.
Shi Xiaobai stood in his spot for a long while with a deadpan expression. He took a few deep breaths before he repressed a baffling impulse in his heart.
He realized that when he was infuriated, he felt like he was about to lose his mind. His heart would have a wanton desire for destruction. The nearly primal bloodlust made Shi Xiaobai have no choice but to force himself to calm down.
Shi Xiaobai had already realized that he could not be easily controlled by his anger.
However, it was impossible for him to swallow this anger.
Face smacking at the tournament?
No, that would be too late. Shi Xiaobai wanted to vent his anger at that moment!
This desire was extremely intense!
Shi Xiaobai took a deep breath as he could not help but look at the towering tree that could be seen at a glance no matter where he was.
This was the holy tree of the Transcendents?
Shi Xiaobai's eyes lit up slightly as he had an idea.
Since the Transcendents, who thought they were superior, belittled them humans, to the point of giving them such unfair treatment, why should he show any mercy?
"It was you who forced This King … to eat your holy tree!"
Shi Xiaobai sneered as he began to consider how to eat the holy tree clean.
Regardless of how much trouble he would incur from eating the holy tree, it was impossible for Shi Xiaobai to take it lying down!
You dare offend This King?
Eat it first!
