"Nephew Helian!"
Before Ling Qingfeng could explain, Luo Shanhe stood up and walked to the door with a big smile on his face.
A handsome young man in a black robe embroidered with dragon patterns strolled into the hall.
The young man was obviously late, but there was not the slightest hint of apology on his handsome face. There was not even any expression on his face.
Luo Shanhe, on the other hand, was not angry. Instead, he was all smiles. "Nephew! Please come in! Please have a seat! "
"Luo Shanhe." Helian Tulong raised an eyebrow. "In terms of seniority, my father is the same generation as Saint Duke's former emperor's Sifu! You should call me Shishu! "
"I …" Luo Shanhe gulped. "Shishu Helian, please forgive me … I'm Princess Puti's eighth uncle … That's why I spoke too quickly …"
"Today, we're all fighting for the throne. It's still not certain who will win!" Helian Tulong narrowed his eyes. "Wait until the day I officially marry the princess. You can call me nephew then!"
"Yes, yes, yes … I was rude," Luo Shanhe hurriedly apologized, then respectfully said, "Uncle Helian, please take a seat!"
Helian Tulong looked like he was only twenty-four or twenty-five years old but Luo Shanhe had to bow down and call him Shishu!
None of the dozens of people in the hall, including the powerhouses on the Nine Regions Earth Leaderboard, dared to say anything when they saw this scene.
It was not hard to see that Helian Tulong's background was terrifyingly powerful!
"Who is this guy? He's so arrogant! "Chen Xiaobei asked.
Ling Qingfeng, who had always been loud, lowered her voice to a whisper. "The Helian family is the most powerful family in Apocalypse Starfield! Helian Tulong is considered the most outstanding prodigy of the family in the last thousand years! He's twenty-five years old and he's already a core disciple of Heaven Dominating Faction! He's number one on the Nine Zones Earth Leaderboard! "
"He's so young! He's already a core disciple of Heaven Dominating Faction! "Chen Xiaobei exclaimed.
The Green Hill Starfield's Regent Wei Zhonglie was at least three to five hundred years old but he was only a core disciple of Heaven Dominating Faction!
This showed that Helian Tulong was the number one prodigy in the entire Earth-God Realm!
No wonder even Luo Shanhe had to treat Helian Tulong with respect.
Ding! [Cultivation: Later phase of God Ascension cultivation; Lifespan: 1,009 years; Health: 1200000; Combat power: 1200000!]
Chen Xiaobei could see through Helian Tulong's cultivation with just a glance.
Ding! [Cultivation: Pinnacle phase of God-Ascension cultivation; Lifespan: 1897; Health: 1500000; Combat power: 1500000!]
Then, Chen took a look at Luo Shanhe's strength.
It was obvious that Luo Shanhe was far more powerful than Helian Tulong, but Luo Shanhe had no choice but to concede.
The reason was simple!
Helian Tulong came from a powerful family and a powerful sect.
More importantly, Helian Tulong had a bright future ahead of him.
Today, Luo Shanhe had offended Helian Tulong, which meant that he had offended a powerful figure in the future.
Xiuzhe had long lifespans and naturally had to plan for the future.
For the same reason, no one in the hall dared to offend Helian Tulong.
"Aren't we going to announce the rules of the betrothal contest? Let's begin! "
Helian Tulong sat at the head of the table and said coolly, "If it was just a simple martial arts competition, I wouldn't be targeting anyone. Everyone here would be going home right now!"
Clearly, Helian Tulong had the absolute advantage of strength among all the contestants. That was why he was so confident.
"No … Of course, it's not just a martial arts competition!"
Luo Shanhe said. "As everyone knows, the Saint Duke royal family has the blood of Saint Duke. But the only ones who have the blood of Saint Duke are His Majesty the King and Princess Puti!
Marrying off Princess Puti is Saint Duke's top priority. We have to be very careful about this!
That's why this martial arts competition will be divided into three rounds of selection. We will carefully examine each contestant's background, and then select the Fuma who will be the most helpful to Saint Duke! "
Everyone's hearts were as clear as a mirror.
Saint Duke was in a precarious situation. If Tenshou and Royal Dome launched a second wave of attacks, Saint Duke could be wiped out.
That was why Saint Duke had to find a Fuma who was strong enough to change the situation.
Family, background, status, power, wealth, combat power – these were all criteria that had to be assessed.
"Today, I'm going to announce the first round of selection!"
Luo Shanhe said. "Within seven days, Earth-God grade materials of the five elements – Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, and Earth. There are no restrictions on the type or method. As long as you can find 100 catties of them, you will be able to enter the second round!"
As soon as he said that, almost half of the people present cried out in surprise.
"Are you kidding me? Earth-God grade materials are extremely rare in the Earth-God Realm. I can't even take out half a catty, let alone 100 catties … "
"That's right! Even if I sold my entire family, I wouldn't be able to get 100 catties of Earth-God grade materials! "
"Saint Duke really has it all planned out! They can get a lot of Earth-God grade materials that can be used to craft Earth-God instruments. They can also be traded for the most advanced interstellar weapons in other starfields! "
"That's right! They're using this as a pretense to gather scarce resources in preparation for the upcoming war! "
"That's true … but Earth-God grade materials aren't cabbages that you can find anywhere! Where are you going to find 100 catties? "
"That's true … I can't find them anyway …"
"You're not the only one! I don't think anyone can find them! Even if they can, it's a huge loss to trade for a wife! "
…
Those who were screaming were either unable to complete the task or were not determined enough to think that it was not worth it to exchange Earth-God grade materials for Luo Puti.
"If there's anyone who can't complete the task or doesn't want to complete it, you can leave now!"
Not only does our Princess Puti possess Saint Duke's Divine Meridian, but she is also a peerless beauty. Not only that, but she also possesses a rare talent that only comes along once every ten thousand years. Her cultivation is improving very quickly! "
In the future, Princess Puti might even become Saint Duke's empress! If you don't have enough sincerity, then you have no right to discuss marriage with her! "
As soon as he said that, everyone's expression changed.
Luo Puti had Saint Duke's heaven meridian. If anything happened to the current Saint Emperor, Luo Puti would be the undisputed empress of Saint Duke!
Whoever married Luo Puti would be marrying the entire Saint Duke Starfield!
If that was the case, the value of this marriage contract could not be compared to 100 catties of Earth-God grade materials.
"I will be back on time in seven days!"
Helian Tulong rose to his feet confidently and was the first to leave the hall.
"We will try our best as well. We will try our best to complete the task in seven days!"
The rest of the people in the hall also expressed their willingness to give it a try.
"100 pounds of Earth-God grade material … Where am I supposed to find it?" Chen Xiaobei was stunned.
[PS: Chapter 4: The Heavenly Fate Leaderboard is wrong. That is the leaderboard of Apocalypse Starfield, not the Earth-God Realm leaderboard!]
