In the underground city, the headquarters of the Silly Rich Chamber of Commerce was like a small city. Those who could come here had to have lived and worked in the Silly Rich Chamber of Commerce for at least three generations, and had to be absolutely loyal to the Chamber of Commerce. This place didn't look much different from an ordinary city. There were also shops, restaurants, hotels, and other facilities. However, these were only places for the core elites of the Silly Rich Chamber of Commerce to communicate with each other.
In the middle of the underground city, there was a building that connected heaven and earth. It was like a heavenly pillar that held up the city. Zhou Xiaoxiao told everyone that this was the council tower where the council was located. It was also the place where the silly rich merchant group controlled internal affairs.
The council controlled all internal affairs, while the president had the right to decide external affairs. Unless it was a matter of great importance, such as the survival of the Chamber of Commerce, the council had the right to question the president's decision. Therefore, in the Foolish Rich Chamber of Commerce, the two most authoritative people were naturally the president and the chairman of the council.
Zhou Xiaoxiao brought everyone to the meeting tower. To Ji Dong's surprise, there was an elevator similar to the one in his previous life in this hundred-meter-tall meeting tower. However, this elevator was made up of simple machinery with the help of manual weights. Even though it wasn't a real elevator, perhaps only a foolish merchant group could do something like this in the entire continent.
Most of the businesses of the Silly Rich Chamber of Commerce were luxurious. However, the strange thing was that their headquarters was very simple without any fancy decorations. After asking Zhou Xiaoxiao and the others, they learned that this was because the president of the previous generation asked the elites of the Chamber of Commerce to never forget the hardships and simple lives they had. Therefore, no matter how luxurious the outside world was, they could feel the word "simple" again when they returned to this place.
The Conference Hall on the top floor of the Conference Tower was the place where the most important matters of the Silly Rich Chamber of Commerce were decided. Today, the contents of the last two tests for Ji Dong would be announced here.
When they arrived at the Conference Hall, it was already full of people. Chairman Wang Daojun was already waiting in the main seat. After seeing Zhou Xiaoxiao, he slowly stood up and nodded to the others as a greeting. The other members of the council were naturally much more polite. They all stood up and greeted Zhou Xiaoxiao. Zhou Xiaoxiao smiled and replied to them one by one. After arranging the seats for Fury and the others, she led Ji Dong to the main seat.
"Mr. Chairman, everyone is here. Let's start now so that Ji Dong can complete the next test as soon as possible," Zhou Xiaoxiao said to Wang Daojun. Zhou Xiaoxiao said to Wang Daojun. As he spoke, there was a hint of mockery in his eyes. He thought to himself, 'Wang Daojun, oh Wang Daojun, I'd like to see what else you can come up with to make things difficult for Ji Dong. Even the Golden Fiend Army has been defeated.
In the Silly Rich Chamber of Commerce, there were only two Supreme-Beings, Wang Daojun and Lone Bamboo Rainsword. Lone Bamboo Rainsword was on his side. Although Wang Daojun had hidden a lot of his strength, it was not easy to invite a Supreme-Being. Moreover, his test would not be about defeating a Supreme-Being. If he defeated a Supreme-Being, it would mean that he had the strength of a Supreme-Being. Would Ji Dong still need to pass the test?
Wang Daojun didn't seem to notice the teasing look in Zhou Xiaoxiao's eyes. He nodded and said, "Alright, then let's begin. Yesterday, we witnessed Mr. Ji Dong's magic with our own eyes. I couldn't help but be deeply shocked by Mr. Ji Dong's strength. Our Silly Rich Chamber of Commerce has a history of more than five hundred years. The previous presidents, including our current President Zhou, are all amazing geniuses. They have also contributed a great deal of effort to the development of the Chamber of Commerce. Therefore, every time we choose a new president, the council must be extra careful. In addition to the recommendation of the current president, we also need to comprehensively assess the candidate's overall strength, perseverance, age, experience, identity, and other aspects. Therefore, our assessment will be more difficult. After all, once the assessment is successful, it means that the candidate will become the next president. He will lead the millions of subordinates of the Silly Rich Chamber of Commerce to advance together.
Zhou Xiaoxiao frowned and said, "Chairman, let's get straight to the point."
Wang Daojun smiled faintly and said, "Chairman, you're still as impatient as ever. I'm only saying this to tell Mr. Ji Dong that the difficulty of our assessment is not aimed at him personally. It's because the position of the future Chairman of the Chamber of Commerce is too important that we have to consider the overall situation. Yesterday's first assessment tested Mr. Ji Dong's personal strength. Without a doubt, Mr. Ji Dong passed smoothly and gave us a big surprise by exceeding the requirements of the assessment. Today, I'm going to announce that the next two assessments will not be completed today. The second assessment tests courage and shrewdness. As we all know, as the leader of the Chamber of Commerce, these two qualities are indispensable."
"There's a mysterious place called the Dragon Valley in the Radiant Five Elements Mainland. Unlike the Metal Dragons or Earth Dragons commonly used by the Gold Fiend Army, there are real dragons living there. The Dragon Valley is also known as the First Forbidden Area of the Mainland. They are the real Dragon Tribe. Apart from some special existences, most of the dragons are like our human Devil Masters. They are classified according to the five elements. They are mainly divided into five major dragon tribes: the wood attribute Azure Dragon Tribe, the fire attribute Fire Dragon Tribe, the earth attribute Diamond Dragon Tribe, the metal attribute Gold Dragon Tribe, and the water attribute Water Dragon Tribe. These five major dragon tribes have their own chiefs, also known as the Five Great Dragon Kings. The Azure Dragon King is the First Wood Divine Beast of the Heavenly Stem Divine Beasts, the Azure Dragon King.
My second assessment is to invite Mr. Ji Dong to the Dragon Valley, the holy land of the Dragon Tribe, to obtain a reverse scale from each of the Five Great Dragon Kings. The reverse scale is located under the dragon's neck. The color of the scale will be different from the color of the rest of their bodies. "
After listening to Wang Daojun's words, the Heavenly Stem Holy Disciples couldn't help but curse in their hearts. Even the councilors who already knew the content of the assessment looked a little gloomy. It was true that the assessment of the president of the Foolish Rich Chamber of Commerce was difficult, but it had never been this difficult.
What did it mean to obtain a Dragon King's scale, and a Dragon King's reverse scale at that? A dragon's reverse scale would enrage anyone who touched it, let alone plucking it off. The reverse scale of a dragon was its vital point. Even a magical beast that had signed a contract with a human might not be willing to let its master touch it, let alone an outsider. If one wanted to obtain a dragon's reverse scale, it could only be completed by killing the dragon.
Zhou Xiaoxiao stared blankly at Wang Daojun. He realized that he had underestimated this old fellow. He didn't expect that the second assessment that Wang Daojun asked Ji Dong to complete was to kill the Five Great Dragon Kings. One must know that the Five Great Dragon Kings were not only Rank Ten Mythological Beasts, but their cultivation was also above ordinary Rank Ten Mythological Beasts. This could be seen from the fact that the Azure Dragon King was a First Wood Mythological Beast. Not to mention Ji Dong, even Zhou Xiaoxiao himself would also be courting death. However, at this time, Zhou Xiaoxiao also understood the reason why many members of the council expressed goodwill to him after the end of the first assessment yesterday. Wang Daojun had made such a difficult assessment for his own benefit, which had already caused the strong dissatisfaction of the members of the council, even those who were on Wang Daojun's side.
Perhaps because the second assessment was too difficult, Zhou Xiaoxiao couldn't speak. Justice was in the hearts of people. He just looked at the members of the council, as if asking them, is this your decision? Is this what you think of the Chamber of Commerce?
Wang Daojun's expression changed. This was because he realized that the members of the council were all avoiding Zhou Xiaoxiao's gaze. The members of the council, who had always supported Zhou Xiaoxiao, slowly stood up under the leadership of the Chamber of Commerce's Vice President, Solitary Bamboo Rainsword.
Their eyes were filled with anger. Without a doubt, Wang Daojun's request was destroying the future of the Chamber of Commerce. How could they tolerate it?
Zhou Xiaoxiao looked at Wang Daojun with disdain. Wang Daojun's expression darkened. He didn't expect the council, which had always been led by him, to be in such a situation. Clearly, because of their own interests and the Chamber of Commerce's interests, the members of the council were hesitant. Moreover, Zhou Xiaoxiao's side was very strong.
In fact, the main reason for this situation was because Ji Dong's performance yesterday was too shocking. His valiant performance had conquered the hearts of all the councilors. Who didn't wish for the next president to possess great strength? It was obvious that Ji Dong was such an existence. He was already so powerful without the support of the foolish Chamber of Commerce. In the future, when he had the support of the Chamber of Commerce, no one could say for sure how powerful he would become. It must be known that on the Five Elements Continent, there had not been a Saint-leveled expert for many years. No one could say for sure if Ji Dong, who was only twenty years old this year, would become the next Saint-leveled expert. However, one must not forget his identity as the Heavenly Stems Holy King. In the history of the Heavenly Stems Saints, only the first generation of Saints were all Saint-leveled experts. In every subsequent generation, most of the Saints were Supreme Warriors. However, every Holy King was a Saint-leveled expert without exception. There had not been a Heavenly Stems Saint for hundreds of years, and Ji Dong was the Holy King of this generation of Radiant Heavenly Stems Saints. If he could really become a Saint-leveled expert, then under his shadow, at least for the next few hundred years, the foolish Chamber of Commerce would not have to worry about survival.
Zhou Xiaoxiao's choice of Ji Dong had always been impeccable. In front of the big picture, the councilors on Wang Daojun's side had begun to waver.
However, at this time, Ji Dong, who had been sitting next to Zhou Xiaoxiao, spoke.
"Chairman Wang, I would like to know what my third test will be." Ji Dong asked.
Lone Bamboo Rainsword, who was leading the councilors to stand up, froze when he heard Ji Dong speak. It was obvious that Ji Dong had chosen the wrong time to speak. He was ready to lead the councilors in questioning Wang Daojun. Ji Dong's words helped Wang Daojun. He couldn't help but look at Zhou Xiaoxiao.
Zhou Xiaoxiao was shocked, too. She shook her head at Lone Bamboo Rainsword, signaling for him to wait.
Wang Daojun secretly sighed and forced a smile on his face. He had no choice but to persevere in this nearly impossible test. He could not afford to lose the god artifact at all, but Ji Dong's strength was so monstrous that he had no choice but to do this. Although he was stuck in a dilemma, he had no other choice.
"I'm afraid that the third assessment will be more difficult than the second. Oh, I forgot to emphasize that you don't have to complete the second assessment alone. You can also bring your companions along. As for the third assessment, you can invite as many friends as possible to help you. As long as you complete the third assessment, you'll pass."
Zhou Xiaoxiao and Ji Dong were surprised. Zhou Xiaoxiao snorted and said, "Since when was the chairman so easy to talk to?"
Wang Daojun's face had recovered a bit, and he said, "This isn't about being easy to talk to. As the chairman, I want to be fair. If it was just Mister Ji Dong, it would be too difficult to get the five reverse scales. But the chairman said that Mister Ji Dong is a Heavenly Stem Saint, and he has friends from the Heavenly Stem Saints. Therefore, it is not impossible for him to go to the Dragon Valley. As for the third test, it is indeed difficult. So it is only natural that Mister Ji Dong would invite friends to help him. The third test is to ask Mister Ji Dong to go to the core of the earth and bring back a crystal rock that is at least one cubic meter in size. With this crystal rock, and the craftsmen of the Chamber of Commerce, Mister Ji Dong will be able to improve his armor's defense and amplification abilities. This is a win-win situation."
The councilors on Zhou Xiaoxiao's side were in an uproar after hearing Wang Daojun's words. If the Dragon Valley was a place where they roughly knew the location, then the core of the earth was the true land of demons. Legend had it that even a supreme expert would find it difficult to come out unscathed, let alone go to the core of the earth. No one knew what was in the core of the earth, but it was certain that the power in the core of the earth was not inferior to that on the surface.
However, the expressions of Zhou Xiaoxiao and the other Heavenly Stem Saints became interesting. Without a doubt, Wang Daojun's test was impossible for anyone else, but for Ji Dong …
