The first to stop Tang Shidao's matches were the big bookmakers, because they couldn't hold on any longer.
They couldn't restrict the audience from betting, because that would ruin their business. However, they could 'restrict' other contestants from challenging Tang Shidao. If no one challenged him, there would naturally be no matches. Could the contestants not listen to the big bookmakers? Yes. Really. If you don't believe me, you can try. Let's see if your neck is harder or if the other party's blade is sharper.
The audience objected loudly, but it was useless.
Unless Tang Shidao took the initiative to challenge some contestants, it was' reasonable 'for no one to challenge Tang Shidao … You couldn't force the contestants to die, could you? There were so many matches, and all of them were lost. No matter how courageous one was, they couldn't be stupid.
"Mr. Tang, these are gifts from the big bookmakers. They hope you won't challenge anyone in the short term." Wei Luo was very busy recently.
The big bookmakers were desperately trying to find out information, and the small clans were desperately trying to submit plans.
One person becoming famous would bring glory to the entire clan.
Tang Shidao only had Wei Luo as his trainer. He had no clan, no allies, no team. Wei Luo could be said to be his spokesperson. The contestants in the fighting pool weren't athletes. They didn't need a huge force to support them. The contestants in the fighting pool in the Above Mortal World were 'giants' themselves. The higher the level of magic power, the higher the status and battle strength. They didn't need support; they were the power themselves.
"A one-time ancient artifact. What a valuable gift." Tang Shidao smiled.
"Three."
"Okay, I won't touch it for now. However, is it useful for them to persuade me not to challenge? "Tang Shidao glanced at it and handed it to Wei Luo, indicating that he could take it if he didn't want it.
"It's useful." Wei Luo was used to this kind of reaction. He knew that the person in front of him wasn't someone he could bribe with. "It's good that you don't have any objections. The big bookmakers need some time to adjust, but they can quickly come up with a new plan. Even if you're certain to win, you can still bet on other events. For example, how many minutes can your opponent last? Do you need to fight? "
"So that's how it is." Tang Shidao understood. They could also bet on time to win.
"What did the small clans say?"
"Your opinion?"
"In a place like this in my previous life, one would either have to rely on a large clan or ally with a small clan. Not only could they provide a large amount of cultivation resources, but they could also provide a large amount of information. At the same time, when you are in trouble or in danger, they can also lend a helping hand. That's because the various clans don't just invest in one contestant, but many. They can also support each other in battle, "Wei Luo explained.
"Players who are too introverted won't be liked by everyone, right?" Tang Shidao understood.
"That's right. Unless you can win for sure, the audience can't leave you." Wei Luo nodded, expressing that joining forces was a form of sharing. Eating alone would only make others hate you.
"Alright, I don't mind, but I have some conditions."
"Of course, go ahead." Wei Luo had expected this. It was impossible for a small clan to not pay a price for their reputation.
"Firstly, I'm very interested in ancient artifacts. There was no need for physical objects. Drawings and written records would do too. As long as it was related to an ancient artifact from the previous world, it would be fine. I don't care how much I can collect, but if they want me to do something, like join an adventurer team, they have to pay me well. "
"These things and information will be used as payment?" Wei Luo was very surprised.
"That's right."
"What about Source Iron Ore or Source Iron Crystals and other magical materials?"
"You can take them if you like, but I don't need them."
"Alright, I understand. That's not a problem. There are very few ancient artifacts from the previous world, but there are many ancient drawings, documents, and fragments. Mr. Tang, I have to remind you. If you want to quickly recover your magic power, it would be better to ask for some cultivation resources. Also, the definition of ancient artifacts from the previous world is often very simple. When a certain era or civilization is cut off, they will be listed as an ancient artifact. "
"Mm, I like these 'cut off' things." Tang Shidao nodded.
"And?" Wei Luo also nodded, believing that this condition would be easy to satisfy.
"The second condition is that I'm curious about the adventures from the previous world. This place is very big, but it's still limited. However, there are more adventures here than in the Void. I'm very curious about where these adventures come from. If possible, I want to participate. If there's a need to keep it a secret, I won't force you. "Tang Shidao hinted.
"No, I won't force you. About this … Mm, I'm sorry, it was my oversight. "
"What do you mean?"
"I should have told you earlier, because I didn't pay attention to your identity. Actually, this is very simple. The adventure places appear randomly. I'll put it simply. In the Void, there's a danger called the 'Void Rift,' right? There were similar things in the previous world. "Wei Luo opened the screen and explained as he played.
"Similar?" Tang Shidao heard the key words.
"Yes, similar, similar but not the same. In the previous world, there was a saying of 'three pools and one gate,' which represented the general impression of the previous world. The three pools were the Resurrection Pool, the Birth Pool, and the Combat Pool. One gate referred to the Outer Realm Gate. It was similar to the Void Rift, but there were signs before it appeared, and there was also a time after it appeared. The adventure team would prepare before it opened, enter, and come out before it closed. "
"What if they didn't come out in time?"
"If they could hold on, then they waited. If they couldn't, then they died. The probability of the Outer Realm Gate opening again wasn't high. It might take a few thousand years, or a few hundred million years. Everything depended on luck. However, there was a guarantee in the previous world: if you couldn't wait, you could kill yourself and then revive in the Resurrection Pool. "
"Does the Outer Realm Gate mean that it opens to the Outer Realm Gate?"
"Yes, Mr. Tang, the Outer Realm Gate is your understanding. In our mouth, it's all called the next world. "Wei Luo didn't mean to mock. The residents of the previous world indeed looked down on everyone. This kind of habit was already engraved in their bones and couldn't be changed.
"How do you judge the strength of the Outer Realm Gate?"
"Before it opens, everyone needs to check the strength of the Outer Realm Gate. The stronger its energy senses, the stronger its internal world. Of course, this isn't absolute. It's just a general judgment. Generally, the judgment is accurate. Very rarely, a particularly powerful individual might appear. That would be troublesome for the adventure team. "Wei Luo continued to show and explain.
In fact.
The strength of the Outer Realm Gate was a general judgment. The general estimation was correct.
However, the races and creatures inside the Outer Realm Gate weren't necessarily 'average' in strength. If there were 100 of them, it was possible that 100 of them were about the same level. It was also possible that 99 of them were weak and one of them was heaven-defying. The former was the norm. The latter was an unexpected danger that rarely appeared. This was also why the adventure team needed to have high combat strength. They also needed support when they encountered danger.
Sometimes.
The creatures of the Outer Realm Gate would also ambush them. When the adventure team was almost back, they would pounce out all at once and not let the adventure team leave safely.
Sometimes, they would obediently avoid them and let the adventure team harvest the resources.
They only hoped that there wouldn't be any conflicts.
Behind the Outer Realm Gate was a whole new world. No one could be sure what would happen. At the lowest level, behind the Outer Realm Gate was just a mortal world. They couldn't even collect anything good. This was similar to the Mage Net, but it was different. The mages knew everything about the world they entered. They even knew the restrictions. The Outer Realm Gate was random and had no restrictions. Unless the natural environment was special.
After Wei Luo finished explaining, Tang Shidao also understood.
The Outer Realm Gate.
It sometimes played the role of a 'raider'.
The stronger the person or clan, the less they needed to do this. Because there were abundant resources and pure energy, the strong had better resources. However, the weak person or clan needed the resources of the Outer Realm Gate. The Outer Realm Gate hadn't been open for long. It definitely couldn't produce and operate. It was also difficult to exchange goods. More importantly, the people of the Outer Realm Gate were arrogant. In order to save time, they would rob first.
Wei Luo also explained that this was a loss of character.
However.
The large clans wouldn't share too many resources. If the small clans wanted to develop, they had to rob. This was an unchangeable fact. Wei Luo also mentioned that they had been retaliated against in the previous life. In the Outer Realm Gate, there were many people like the 'Mad God'. They had all been robbed and then cultivated themselves. The second or third time it opened, they would kill for revenge.
However.
The Mad God could awaken some rules, but these people couldn't.
The first point: Resurrection Pool.
With its existence, the people of the Outer Realm Gate weren't afraid of revenge.
The second point: Void Origin Soil.
Most of the important planets in the Outer Realm Gate were made of Void Origin Soil. Even if someone retaliated, death and destruction would be for the weak. Void Origin Soil could ensure that the middle and upper levels lived well.
Because of these two reasons, the Outer Realm Gate couldn't learn from it.
"Eliminate those clans that like to rob and kill. I don't sympathize with the Outer Realm Gate. I just don't want to cooperate with those short-sighted clans. Realm Lords and above have private planes. I don't think there won't be enough resources for cultivation. At the Ancestral Soul Realm, you can even completely construct a living universe. Saying there aren't enough resources is just an excuse. Greed is a kind of short-sightedness, a fatal short-sightedness. I don't like short-sighted collaborators. "Tang Shidao made his last request.
"Okay." Wei Luo didn't find it strange.
In the Outer Realm Gate, there was a reason for being strong, and there was also a reason for being weak.
Sometimes, being weak wasn't because of a lack of resources, but because of 'laziness, stupidity, greed' and other reasons. Many contestants didn't like to cooperate with short-sighted people. People with personality flaws would be magnified infinitely because of their long lifespan. Similarly, it was the same for clans. Their weaknesses would be magnified infinitely because of their eternal lifespan. The impression of being a national thief couldn't be washed away even after tens of thousands of years of good deeds.
Wei Luo listened.
He went out to convey Tang Shidao's message.
He heard that everyone was relaxed and happy about the antiques and adventures of the previous life, but the third point made half of the small clans leave … … Robbing was their way of survival.
However, this didn't reduce Tang Shidao's points.
On the contrary, the next day, another group of small clans came … … They all liked the third point.
They were willing to develop slowly, but they didn't want to mislead their descendants.
At this time.
Yuan Chang and Wei Zhang listened to the latest news from the monitoring department. They also knew that Tang Shidao was slowly 'adapting' to the Outer Realm.
"What did the higher-ups say?" Yuan Chang was most concerned about this: How did Tang Shidao do it?
"There's no answer, and they can't analyze it. The higher-ups only said that Tang Shidao's strange methods are likely related to the Genesis Divine Body, because the Genesis Divine Body is in the state of clouds. In addition, the higher-ups rejected your request to kill him. They don't think your chances of winning are high. They also said that if you're confident, it's best to kill him on the competition stage. If you kill him off the stage, not only will you fight to the death in the future, you'll also provoke those who follow the rules. "
"Yes." Yuan Chang nodded. In fact, it was just a question. He didn't have much hope.
Killing him off the stage was a matter of life and death.
No, it was a hatred that would never be resolved. Even if the dead were resurrected, the two sides would still fight to the death. The possibility of reconciliation was basically zero. An extreme example was the resurrection of the dead, unable to establish a foothold, and forced to enter the Outer Realm to cultivate in another world. When the time was right, they would return to the Outer Realm and mercilessly slaughter their enemies.
It could be said that.
The Resurrection Pool was a mirror, a mirror of human nature. The more vicious you were to others, the more severe the retribution you would receive.
Why was everything fine after entering the Outer Realm?
Because of the three pools and one gate.
Their existence was a kind of hidden rule. Everyone had to have a limit in everything they did.
"Let's observe first. If you find a weakness, remember to inform me immediately. "Yuan Chang was a resident of the Upper Realm after all. He couldn't help but despise visitors from the Lower Realm. Besides, there was no hatred between the two sides … … At least Yuan Chang didn't think that he had offended the Void. He felt that what he did was reasonable.
"Yes!"
