When Desbarres heard this, he stared for a moment, then he nodded and said, "Right, the Zhang Family does indeed have this intention. There is a mole in the family, the Zhang Family must know about your matter. They don't want you to participate in the competition because they are afraid that you would gain too much benefits for the family. If you gain a lot of benefits for the family, then countless people would want to form an alliance with the family. When the time comes, they simply wouldn't have any way to deal with us. It's good that you can think of this. Because of this reason, you must win and get a good ranking. The better your ranking, the safer the family will be."
Zhao Hai nodded and said, "Alright, Camp Lord can rest assured. I understand."
Desbarres nodded, then he turned to Margaret and said, "Margaret, do you want to go this time?"
Margaret nodded and said, "Of course I want to go. Let's go. In any case, I don't have anything to pack."
Desbarres smiled bitterly, then he turned to Zhao Hai and said, "Let's go. Let's go to Demon Island first. The Patriarch won't be going this time. Cadjo and I will be leading a total of five intermediate warships."
Zhao Hai nodded and said, "Then let's go. The family's matter is important. We can't afford to be late."
Desbarres nodded, then he led Margaret and Zhao Hai out. However, Desbarres looked at Margaret with a strange gaze.
Desbarres was also an experienced person. Naturally, he could see that Margaret was different compared to yesterday. He immediately understood what the two were doing. Desbarres couldn't help but worry.
Although Thunder had agreed to the matter between Zhao Hai and Margaret, Desbarres couldn't guarantee that the two of them wouldn't anger Thunder.
After the group came out of the building, they boarded a flying carriage and went straight to Demon Island. Desbarres looked at Zhao Hai and said, "Originally, there was no need to be in such a hurry. However, the Patriarch had already warned the Zhang Family after you returned. The Zhang Family already knew about your return. Moreover, the Patriarch had already canceled Margaret's marriage. This is a slap to the Zhang Family's face. The Patriarch was afraid that the Zhang Family would take drastic action, so he ordered us to leave immediately."
When Margaret heard Desbarres, she couldn't help but stare. Then she happily said, "Uncle Desbarres, did the Patriarch really cancel my marriage?"
Desbarres nodded, then he smiled and said, "Of course it's true. I retired yesterday. I wanted to tell you about this matter, but because I drank too much yesterday, I didn't say anything. I didn't expect you to develop to this point." Zhao Hai nodded and smiled.
When Margaret heard Desbarres, she knew that Desbarres already knew about the matter between her and Zhao Hai. Her face couldn't help but turn red as she lowered her head and didn't speak. Zhao Hai smiled faintly and said, "Camp Lord, the Patriarch wouldn't blame me for this matter, right?"
Desbarres sighed and said, "I can only hope that the Patriarch doesn't blame you. After all, the family needs you. Moreover, the Patriarch didn't oppose your marriage with Margaret. I hope so."
Zhao Hai didn't look too worried. He believed that Margaret had stayed in his room last night and didn't go back. Thunder should've already known about it. So he didn't send people to capture her last night, so he wouldn't make a move today.
While they were talking, Desbarres and the others arrived at High Demon Island. High Demon Island was very big and bustling. However, Zhao Hai and the others didn't stop there as they flew towards the family's airfield. There were already several flying carriages there as well as a small ship waiting for them. Cadjo and the other Camp Lords were already there. Only the Bone Symbol Camp was left.
After the flying carriage stopped, Desbarres immediately got off. Then he laughed and said, "I'm sorry, I drank too much yesterday. I woke up late today and made everyone wait for a long time."
Cadjo stared at Desbarres, then he turned his head to Zhao Hai and said, "Alright, I'll let this butcher be proud for a while. Hurry up, the Patriarch said that he wouldn't be sending us off today. When we return in triumph, the Patriarch will personally come and pick us up. Let's get on the ship." Zhao Hai nodded and said, "Alright, I'll let this butcher be proud for a while.
Everyone nodded before they followed Cadjo to the ship. Desbarres went to Dillard and the others and gave them a slight bow before he said, "Everyone, please take care of the Outer Sect. I'll take care of these little fellows."
Dillard and the others nodded and didn't say anything. They owed Desbarres and Zhao Hai a big favor this time. Naturally, they wouldn't act like before.
Desbarres didn't say anything as well. He nodded to the others before he turned around and boarded the ship. Because the ship was heading directly to the airfield, it wouldn't take a long time. Because of this, Cadjo didn't assign a room to the group. Instead, the group went to the command center.
The ship took off smoothly and before long, it passed through the atmosphere and entered space before flying towards the airfield. Cadjo looked at the scenery outside the ship and said, "This time, the family will send five mid-level battleships along with ten thousand mechas. This should be enough to ensure our safety. Our destination is the Machine Field's Machine Formation Planet. That's the central planet of the Machine Field. The qualifiers will be held there."
Zhao Hai and the others nodded. Then Cadjo said, "From Dark Demon Planet to the Machine Formation Planet, it would take about eight days at full speed. There should be plenty of time. However, there might be some accidents along the way. You don't need to worry, the family has already made arrangements. Nothing will happen."
While they were talking, the ship arrived at the airfield. When the group entered the airfield, they didn't stay for long. They immediately boarded the ship that the family had prepared for them and left the airfield.
This time, the mid-sized ship that they were riding was much bigger than the ship that Zhao Hai made last time. Not only can the ship carry several thousand mechas, it also has several small lifeboats. It was much better than the ship that Zhao Hai made last time. Zhao Hai's ship was much bigger than the one that he made last time.
After getting on the ship and assigning their rooms, Cadjo called the group to a conference room. This medium sized ship was actually a bit smaller than a large ship. However, the facilities inside were very complete. There were several conference rooms on the ship.
They were currently in a small conference room. Inside the room were Cadjo, Desbarres, Zhao Hai, Margaret, and the other winners of the family's qualifiers.
After everyone sat down, Cadjo said, "I called you here to tell you about the opponents you might encounter in the qualifiers. These people are all very powerful. If you encounter them, you must be careful. Besides Zhao Hai, you should have already received some information about the other forces. Because of Zhao Hai's mission, Zhao Hai hasn't seen it yet. But it doesn't matter. You can use the next few days to look at the information, as long as you know what to expect, then it's fine."
Zhao Hai nodded, then Cadjo continued, "What I'm going to tell you this time are some people that you need to pay attention to. These people are the strongest among the contestants." Cadjo nodded and said, "I'm going to tell you about some people that you need to pay attention to.
After he said that, Cadjo moved to the side. The wall behind him immediately turned into a monitor. On the monitor, a person's image appeared. This person was a Mage. He wore light blue robes, had light blue hair, a handsome face, and a faint smile on his face. This person made people want to get close to him.
Next to this person's image was a brief introduction. Zhao Hai carefully looked at the introduction: Name, Streep. Nickname, Ice Saint. Origin, Water Temple. Ascension time, 4 years ago. Strength, 4th Rank Mage. Combat strength estimated. Extremely dangerous. Reports say that she can fight against a small battleship and destroy it in the end.
Then there was a detailed introduction. Zhao Hai carefully looked at it. This Streep was really strong. Four years after she ascended, she had already reached the level of a 4th rank Mage. From the time she ascended until now, she had fought hundreds of battles without losing a single one. From this point alone, one could see how strong she was. Zhao Hai nodded.
After the introduction, there were also some images of Streep's battles. Some of these images were very clear, while some were very blurry. The clear images were from the arena, it seems like they were from the preliminaries. The blurry images were from other people's battles. From these images, one could see that Streep could easily use a 10 layered magic formation. Even a 50 layered magic formation didn't need much time to chant and make hand seals. From this, one could see that his spiritual force was very strong.
In addition to Zhao, some of the other contestants had ugly expressions on their faces. If they wanted to cast a ten-layer spell, they would need the help of a magic staff, but the other side didn't need it at all. Such an opponent was too strong.
They also knew that only Zhao Hai could fight against an opponent like Streep. Others wouldn't have a chance to fight against him.
Although their equipment was provided by their families and could be considered the best, the major forces attached great importance to this competition. It was impossible for someone like Streep to not have a few pieces of top quality equipment. It was impossible for them to win with equipment.
At this time, the image changed and another person appeared. Zhao Hai couldn't help but stare when he saw this person. This was because this person was too strong. He didn't look like a human at all, instead, he looked like a Giant. However, his height was much shorter than a Giant's, so he didn't exceed the limit of the number of Giants.
The man was about two and a half meters tall. He was bald and had bronze-colored skin that looked like it was cast from iron. Coupled with his extremely developed muscles, he looked like an ancient giant that had been pieced together from the wilderness.
He was wearing a suit of armor, which made him look even more formidable. But what caught Zhao Hai's attention the most was the two millstone-sized sledgehammers hanging from the person's waist. It looked very awkward.
One must know that in the Machine Field, spatial equipment wasn't a rare thing. Almost every Cultivator had one. Even ordinary people might use spatial equipment. Because of this, whether it was Warriors or Mages, as long as they didn't want to reveal their identity, they would keep their weapons inside their spatial equipment. Naturally, it was impossible for this person to not have spatial equipment. But the fact that he had these two sledgehammers on him was a bit strange.
Zhao Hai looked at this person's information. This person's name was Xiong Li, also known as Violent Bear. He was an ascended Warrior from the Wu Clan. He ascended three years ago, but he was already a 4th rank Warrior. Moreover, the sword qi he emitted was shot through his sledgehammers. His attack power was very strong. He had copper skin and iron bones, as well as an amazing defense. After his debut, he had fought nearly a thousand battles without losing a single one.
Zhao Hai knew about the Wu Clan, they were a warrior family. They were one of the biggest forces in the Dojo. Moreover, the Wu Clan's people were famous for their strength. Xiong Li being able to ascend to the Wu Clan was really his luck.
Then there was the third expert, Lone Wolf Yan Zhenshan. Yan Zhenshan was a Death Warrior. He was dark and thin, wearing black clothes. His face was ordinary, but his eyes flashed with a cold light. He was also a 4th rank Warrior. The weapon in his hand was a pitch-black sword that didn't reflect any light. Every time he attacked, he would kill his opponent without mercy. In the four years since his ascension, he had attacked thousands of times.
The Tian Family that Yan Zhenshan came from was a very special existence. Their family wasn't like the Ashley Family or the Wu Family, who were only famous for their magic or martial skills. Half of the Tian Family's people practiced magic while the other half practiced martial skills. The Tian Family's people practiced black magic while the other half practiced martial skills. The Tian Family's people practiced black magic while the other half practiced black magic.
The Tian Family was now considered a force of the Dark Shrine. Because the people from the Warrior's Association looked down on them and thought that the people from the Tian Family didn't learn martial arts at all, the Tian Family was also one of the forces in the Church Alliance that opposed the Warrior's Association the most.
The fourth expert was Breeze and Rain Lei Xiaotian. He was a Wind and Rain Mage. He was born in the Wind Shrine's Lei Family. His surname wasn't Lei, but after his ascension, he showed extraordinary talent. Therefore, the Lei Family recruited him and gave him the surname Lei. He was a 4th rank Mage. Because he was a dual attribute Mage, he was very powerful. He had ascended for three and a half years and had fought hundreds of battles without losing a single one.
The fifth expert was Fire Dragon Godly Sword Dongfang Yu. He had ascended for three years and was born in the Yan Family of the Warrior Union. He was a 4th rank Warrior. With the Fire Dragon Sword Technique and the Fire Dragon Godly Sword in his hand, he was invincible in the Dongfang Family. He had participated in more than three hundred family missions and completed them perfectly every time. However, his first mission was very destructive.
The sixth expert was Wild Wind Li Kuangren. He wasn't tall, but he was very muscular. He had two axes in his hands and a Wild Wind Axe Technique. He was invincible. He was a 4th rank Warrior and was born in the Song Family of the Warrior Union.
The seventh expert was Meteor Zhu Chen. He was born in the Earth Shrine and had ascended for three years. His earth magic was superb. He could use ten overlapping magic formations as easily as drinking water. He was a 4th rank Mage and was known to have unparalleled defense.
The eighth expert was Army Destroyer Lu Dingtian. He was born in the Dong Family of the Warrior Union. He had a long spear in his hand and was a 4th rank Warrior.
The ninth expert was Holy Emissary Sun Fei. This person came from the Fire Temple's Zhang Family, the same Zhang Family that Zhao Hai had a grudge with. He ascended four years ago and was a 4th rank Mage. His Fire Magic was very powerful, and he was able to use a ten-layer formation with ease. He was very good at it.
The last expert was Golden Egg Zhang Qinghe. This person ascended less than three years ago, but when he was in the lower realms, there wasn't a single Metal-element Divergent Ability. After ascending, he was fancied by the Lea Family of the Metal Shrine and was brought into the family. This person's study of Magic Formations was also very good. In just three years, he had already become a Fourth-rank Mage. In addition to the fact that he was a Metal-element Magician, whether it was in terms of attack or defense, his strength couldn't be underestimated.
