Earth Valley, Outer Mountain.
Although true talents were welcomed everywhere, there was no place in the world that valued talents more than the Mountain Beyond Mountain.
The Outer Mountain was originally ruled by ten deities. However, the two strongest of them had fought for the position of the ruler for ten thousand years, causing immeasurable losses to the subterranean valley and the Outer Mountain. Because of this, the eight deities who were implicated in the ten-thousand-year war decided to join forces. Taking advantage of the weakened state of the two strongest deities who were heavily injured from fighting each other, they turned their divine bodies into ashes and sealed their divine senses deep under the Outer Mountain … When the two strongest deities fell, the eight evenly matched deities who were injured in the joint sealing war decided to take charge of the 'eight worlds' of the Outer Mountain. At the same time, they brought in outstanding talents from the subterranean valley, hoping to restore the Outer Mountain that was devastated by the war of the deities as soon as possible.
For ten thousand years, no matter what kind of talent, as long as they came from Earth Valley to Outer Mountain, they would be hired.
The eight Gods were in charge of the eight worlds. In an era of peace, the God Nation they decided to build needed a large number of talents.
Therefore, anyone who came here would be worth a hundred times more, and everyone would fight to hire them.
Receiving Platform of Outer Mountain.
The messenger on duty, 'Old Spear', sighed all day long.
The rule here was that every year, the messenger representing each side could be on duty for a month. During this time, the talents received would belong to the representative on duty, unless they had signed a divine contract with the other side.
For the remaining four months of the year, the eight messengers would join forces to recruit talents, and the highest bidder would get them.
The problem was, the messenger of the Southeast God Nation, 'Old Spear', had been on duty for twenty-eight days, but had not received a single talent. He was far from the 'three talents' mission given by his superiors. How could Old Spear not be anxious? How could he not drink and sigh all day long? Old Spear no longer hoped to achieve the mission. He only hoped that he would receive a talent, so that he would not have to eat eggs!
"Talents nowadays are getting fewer and fewer. It wasn't like this six thousand years ago. Whether it was Heaven Realm or Tong Tian Tower, they were constantly sending talents to Earth Valley. Even if many of them were not willing to stay for long, it would not be a problem for them to train for a period of time. Now, there aren't even many youngsters who come to the outer mountains to train. Alas, it's really getting worse year by year! " Old Mao shook his head and sighed. He picked up the wine gourd and poured a mouthful of wine into his mouth. He reckoned that he would not be able to keep his career of never breaking eggs. If he had known this would happen, he would have retired three years ago. Now, he could not even keep his integrity in his old age!
"Sir, someone seems to be coming over there!" As an Oracle, Old Spear was considered a middle-level official in the Outer Mountains. Based on his identity and status, he could have several servants. The one who spoke now was a clever little guy with a vision like that of an eagle.
This little smart-ass was called 'Grasshopper'. He wasn't very strong, and he didn't have the ability to become a talented person and enter the Outer Mountains.
However, he was eloquent and had superb eyesight.
He could be considered a talent.
Therefore, when Old Spear was on a business trip to the underground valley, he took a fancy to him and brought this young, clever boy, who was only three hundred years old, back to Beyond Mountains and took him in as his servant.
When Old Spear heard this, his hand that was pouring wine into his mouth suddenly stopped.
Someone's coming?
Could it be that a really talented person had come?
Could it be that God had eyes and couldn't bear to see him lose his integrity in his old age, so at the last moment when he was about to eat eggs in disgrace, he sent him a 'talented person'?
"Look carefully. Maybe it's a divine servant who has returned from a business trip to the underground valley. Don't be mistaken!" Old Spear suppressed the excitement in his heart. In fact, he had already used his eyesight to see clearly. The person who came was really a new talent who had never been registered before, and not a divine servant who had gone to the underground valley on a business trip. But what puzzled Old Spear was that this talent who seemed to have come from the sky was really too young. According to the natural fluctuations of life coming from his body, Old Spear found that this young man was actually only about twenty years old.
Only twenty years old?
Unbelievably young!
It should be known that in a place like the underground valley, three hundred years old was just an adult, and twenty years old was not even a kid. To put it bluntly, this young man who was only twenty years old might not even be weaned on milk yet …
"Welcome, welcome!" Whether the other party had weaned on milk or not, Old Spear felt that he had to take down this young man who was as young as a baby. Otherwise, his career of not eating eggs for thousands of years would not have a glorious and perfect ending. Old Spear usually had a bit of pride in his identity when he received talents, and the first contact he would definitely be with a servant. But now, he didn't care about his identity as a Divine Emissary, and rushed forward to grab the hand of the person who came.
"Where is this?" The person was not only young, but also muddle-headed. He had come to the Mountain Beyond, and didn't even know where he was. It really made him speechless.
"Welcome, this is the Receiving Platform of the Mountain Beyond. I am the Divine Emissary of the Southeastern Divine Kingdom, Mao Podi. You can call me 'Old Spear'." Old Spear, who would never allow himself to eat eggs, put on a face full of smiles and did not let go of the person's hand. He was extremely enthusiastic.
"The Receiving Platform of the Mountain Beyond?"
The person was stunned when he heard this.
After a long while, he murmured to himself, "I was actually thrown to the Mountain Beyond by that guy?"
The clever Big Brother beside Old Spear immediately realized that something was wrong. This person was too young, and he seemed to have no sense of direction. He must have gotten lost and taken the wrong way, which was why he had inexplicably come to this Receiving Platform. He was not a genius who had been teleported here because he had fulfilled the conditions.
He hurriedly reminded his master, Old Spear, "My Lord, this, this doesn't seem right!"
What kind of person was Old Spear?
He was a super smart person who had never made a mistake in thousands of years!
As a Divine Emissary, if he couldn't tell at a glance that something was wrong, then he would have lived for thousands of years in vain, and had also been blind as a Divine Emissary!
However, for the sake of that shameful record that was about to be born, he decided to pretend to be blind for a while. Anyway, the young man in front of him was still too young. Even if his current strength had not reached the standard of a talent, he was still worth training. Wasn't there a saying that youth was the greatest potential? He waved his hand and interrupted Grasshopper. "There is nothing wrong with this, this is a talent! Little friend … ah no, little brother, may I ask what your name is? "
"My surname is Yue, and my name is Titan." The person who was thought to have no sense of direction was an extremely handsome guy. It would have been fine if he didn't smile, but when he did, it was simply incredible. Old Spear was glad that he didn't like men and wasn't a woman, otherwise he would have been charmed by this brat.
"Titan Yue, is it? I'll just call you Little Titan. Little Titan, what are your specialties? "Old Spear gestured to Grasshopper to register as a talent.
"Specialties? Does being handsome count? " As soon as Titan Yue opened his mouth, Grasshopper, who was in charge of registration, fell to the ground, almost having a brain hemorrhage.
"Cough, cough cough, there's no need to talk about being handsome. Everyone can see that other than being handsome, do you have any other specialties?" Old Spear wasn't angry at all. Firstly, he needed a talent like Titan Yue to protect his perfect Divine Emissary career, so that he wouldn't be shamed. Secondly, he was still a young man, so he was always a little arrogant. He was only a twenty year old kid, so what was the point of arguing with him?
"Other than being handsome, I'm also good at many other things. I'm not a pretty boy who's good for nothing other than my face …" Titan Yue scratched his head, unable to say what else he was good at.
"Then I'll write 'handsome' as your specialties first." Old Spear felt that he didn't need to make things difficult for this little kid. He was only twenty years old, and it was already amazing that he could stop drinking milk. What other specialties could he have? Wouldn't asking him this kind of thing be making things difficult for him on purpose? Old Spear waved his hand, telling Grasshopper to write 'handsome' as his specialties. Grasshopper reluctantly filled it in, pursing his lips. He felt that being handsome was useless. Being handsome couldn't be used to make a living.
"Thank you. In the future, when I think of my specialties, I'll definitely tell you." Titan Yue thanked Old Spear gratefully.
"You're welcome. It's enough that you have this specialties." Old Spear patted Titan Yue's shoulder, indicating that this specialties were also very valuable. Especially that smile that was brighter than the sun, it was extremely lethal. Women couldn't resist it at all. Old Spear felt that he had to be more careful in the future. It would be best if he didn't bring this Titan Yue back to his house for a banquet. Otherwise, all the women in his house would be hooked away by this brat's smile.
"Can you tell us where you're from? If you need to keep it a secret, it's fine if you don't tell us. " Grasshopper was very unhappy. Originally, he was considered the most handsome by Lord Mao Po Di's side. He was also young, so many people around him, including Mao Po Di's family, doted on him. There were even people who said that he was Lord Mao Po Di's illegitimate son. Now that this Titan Yue had come, his position was in danger.
In terms of age, this Titan Yue was even younger. He was only twenty years old, so young that it was unreasonable.
It was even more incomparable in terms of appearance. This little wimp was truly a handsome guy.
He was so handsome that it made people jealous.
Just one smile would suffocate people.
If Lord Mao Po Di had specially introduced this Titan Yue, then his own position would probably be replaced by this brat …
Although he was very unhappy in his heart, he didn't dare to show it on the surface. Instead, he beat around the bush, hoping to understand more about the other party. After all, only by knowing yourself and your enemy can you emerge victorious in every battle.
"For an upright person like me, there's nothing to keep secret. There's nothing that I can't tell others." Titan Yue patted his chest, indicating that he was an upright gentleman who could withstand the organization's test. He was worthy of the world, the earth, and the people. However, this kind of attitude did not reduce the unhappiness in Grasshopper's heart. Instead, it made him feel even more annoyed. He thought to himself: Isn't he just a twenty year old brat? How many days have you lived? How many things have you experienced? Even if you want to keep secrets, you have to live a few more days and experience a few more storms.
"Tong Tian Tower?" After Old Spear heard Titan Yue's reply, he frowned: "Tong Tian Tower has been around for thousands of years. It seems like there aren't many newcomers. What happened over there?"
"Nothing happened. It's pretty good." Titan Yue indicated that there was something wrong with Tong Tian Tower.
"How did you come to Mountain Beyond Mountain?" Grasshopper couldn't help but ask this question. Originally, he couldn't ask this question in detail, as it involved the privacy of a person's training. However, towards Titan Yue, who had lost his way and ended up in Mountain Beyond Mountain, Grasshopper really couldn't help but ask.
"I don't know either. Originally, I was cultivating in a place, and just when I was about to finish cultivating, an unknown guy, probably an inhumane and emotionless bastard, suddenly threw me, who was absorbing energy to my heart's content, here, and even asked me to take something." Titan Yue spread his hands, and shook his head even more muddle-headed than a muddle-headed person: "God knows what that means. In any case, I somehow ended up here. I'm not too sure either …"
"Ah, that's right." Old Spear was stunned for a long time. If it wasn't for his own career as a guide, he definitely wouldn't accept such a muddle-headed person. However, he didn't have a choice right now, so he could only turn a blind eye. Furthermore, although the other party was young, he had potential. It was true that he had a bad sense of direction, but it was possible that he had a big shot backing him. Otherwise, why would he be sent to Mountain Beyond Mountain?
This kind of person should be treated as a freeloader. It wouldn't be much to accept one more.
Furthermore, the big shot behind him might be a deity, or even the one from the Southeast God Kingdom. Otherwise, why would he be sent to Mountain Beyond Mountain when he was on duty? No matter what, it was a must to accept this Titan Yue. Whether or not he could get on the good side of the big shot behind him, let alone help him temporarily. At the very least, he couldn't offend that kind of super big shot who could easily send people to Mountain Beyond Mountain!
Grasshopper was a quick-witted person. He had also thought of this point.
His jealousy towards Titan Yue was still there, but the thought of secretly making a move to trip him up was immediately scared out of his mind.
"Little Titan, according to your age and strength, you are still a little short of our standards. However, we, the Southeast God Kingdom, do not stick to one pattern when it comes to talent. You have potential, so we have decided to hire you. As long as you agree, you can sign this God Contract. Of course, this is only temporary. When your strength has increased and you have proven your worth, you will receive a higher salary and better treatment. " Old Spear gave Titan Yue a special talent God Contract that Grasshopper had been looking forward to for many years but had never been able to obtain.
"Temporary trainee Divine Servant?" Titan Yue glanced at the God Contract and shook his head in dissatisfaction: "I will not be a slave for others. I am a young master at home!"
"…" Grasshopper fell to the ground again. You are a hedonistic young master, even a blind person can see that. No matter what your status at home is, when you come to Mountain Beyond Mountain, without strength, you are not even worth a fart! Although it was a temporary trainee Divine Servant, the treatment was a hundred times better than Grasshopper who had already contributed tens of years of labor to the Southeast God Kingdom. This brat was still not satisfied, he must have seen a ghost!
"Divine Servant is not a real slave, but a title of a rank." Old Spear smiled bitterly and explained: "Initially, there were no Divine Servants. There were only Divine Attendants, Divine Envoys and Divine Generals. However, because we wanted to attract a large number of talents who could not reach the standard of Divine Attendants, we specially created a Divine Servant, which is a lower rank than Divine Attendants."
"Divine Servant means a servant who represents God in this world. To a certain extent, it represents God's will. How is it bad?" Grasshopper could not help but roar crazily.
"In any case, I will not be a servant, even if it is God's servant!" Titan Yue expressed that there was no room for discussion.
"Even if you want to, you don't have the qualifications!" Grasshopper was completely enraged. Brat, could you at least have a little bit of self-awareness and a little bit of shame in your heart? You don't want to give face?
"Then I will go back." Titan Yue turned around and left.
"Don't! Don't ever go back. Coming here is a kind of fate! " Old Spear hurriedly stopped him. On second thought, if the Supreme Being who sent Titan Yue here was really the one above him, and he sent the seed of potential back home, he reckoned that he would not be able to complete the mission. Getting scolded would be a light punishment, and he might even be punished with a thunderous rage. This was not something he could bear. As he thought of this, he secretly shivered. He hurriedly put on a smile: "I, Old Spear, am only a Divine Envoy, my authority is actually quite limited. However, I will do my best to give you a Divine Contract as a trainee Divine Attendant. What do you think?"
"Master?" Grasshopper almost thought that his master had gone crazy.
"You shut up!" Old Spear felt that at this time, if he did not sacrifice the child, he would not be able to catch the wolf. In order to keep this Titan Yue, he would have to pay a little bit of blood to recognize him. In any case, he was not restricted to one type of talent. No matter what, he had to get the talent first!
