Regardless of whether it was Zu Ying.
Or the Virtual World Corporation.
It was never mentioned that the trial would only start after reaching the Ancestral Dragon Tribe.
Everyone … subconsciously thought that the trial would only begin when they reached the Ancestral Dragon Clan. However, that was not the case.
When they received the email from the Virtual World Corporation.
This meant that they had already been chosen.
No one is allowed to quit. Why?
Although the Ancestral Dragon Race was good, everyone had the right to choose.
Not allowing anyone to withdraw in such a domineering manner could be understood as the Virtual World Corporation having gone through a lot of trouble to obtain or purchase a slot for them. They could not let this slot go to waste.
However, there was a problem with this understanding … If the quota was fixed, then when someone from the Virtual World Corporation dropped out, it was entirely possible for someone else to take their place.
Either … the quota was fixed.
The purchased quota could only be used by this person, so the Virtual World Corporation did not allow others to withdraw.
If that was the case, it might be understandable.
But! When Ye Zichen contacted Steelbard, he also spoke to Steelbard.
He was also the leader of the Virtual World Group.
He didn't see Steelbad at the Virtual World Corporation.
At that time, he had been curious as to why Bard hadn't come if all the Highnesses were going to come.
It wasn't just him … Saya didn't come as well.
Ye Zichen was familiar with both of them. They held the titles of "Her Majesty" and "Her Highness" of the Virtual World Corporation.
Thus, Ye Zichen asked Bard about it.
Bard's answer was that he did not receive the email, and the Virtual World Group did not inform him.
The distribution of the email was selective! However, to the outside world, it would be strange to say that all of the Majesties and Highnesses had participated in it.
Bard's status in the Virtual World Group was not low.
His talent was one of the best out of all the Majesties, so why didn't the Virtual World Corporation allow him, a genius Majesty, to participate? Moreover, his strength was that of a Marquis and didn't exceed this limit.
It could be seen from this.
The release of the email was indeed selective.
However, the Virtual World Corporation chose to hide this matter, announcing to the participants that everyone would be participating.
Afterwards, Ye Zichen asked Shaya.
Sha Ya's answer was very direct. Wen Li didn't allow her to say anything about this. Sorry, but she couldn't give Ye Zichen any hints.
Notification! That's right, Ye Zichen remembered it clearly.
She used the word 'hint'.
Ye Zichen had simply asked her if she had received the email. She could answer yes or no, but her answer was that Wen Li didn't allow her to say it. What's more … if she said it, it would be a hint.
This proved that she was an insider.
In that case, the word "hint" was worth pondering.
When would it be a hint? It would only be used to answer a question when they were trying to solve a problem.
This also proved that …
Sha Ya was a bystander, and her words might affect one of Ye Zichen's strategies.
But at that time, he had just returned to the Milky Way.
The Ancestral Dragon Clan's mail wasn't sent either. What was he raiding at that time?
The only exception was the invitation from the Virtual World Corporation.
There was another very important point.
At that time, Zu Ying had a small conflict with a few princes because of her connections. In the end, she was even stripped of her title as prince.
The impact of this incident was still very big.
Actually, Ye Zichen was rather curious as well. He wanted to see if the Virtual World Corporation had really listened to Zu Ying's words and removed the titles of those highnesses.
Because any Highness was the wealth of the group! The Virtual World Corporation was the leader of the Eight Magnates. Would Wen Li really obey its orders?
When he went to check it out … he was stunned! He did not see the existence of those princes.
Every single one of the Eight Magnates would be recorded on the Virtual World Corporation's official website, and their titles removed would also be recorded.
This was also in order to notify the employees of the Virtual World Corporation in time.
Ye Zichen remembered their appearances very clearly.
However, when he went to look for them, there was no record of them on the official website! Then what did this mean?
The Virtual World Corporation never had these princes.
But why did they appear where the princes and highnesses were gathered? What's more, they were caught by Zu Ying and scolded harshly. Zu Ying used them as an example, and used them to bring up the issue of connections.
There was only one possibility. These people were from the Ancestral Dragon Clan! From the moment Ye Zichen and the other chosen ones received this mail and took their first step into the palace, the trial had already begun.
However, Ye Zichen did not notice it at the time.
He felt that Zu Ying had done it on purpose to destroy the unity between Ye Zichen and Ye Sheng, who had connections with the other highnesses and highnesses.
She wanted to isolate them! The Ancestral Dragon Clan's trial was only for the Eight Magnates.
If the people within the group were not united and were ostracized, then they would still be alone in the Ancestral Dragon Clan.
That was the first test.
The only people who were truly affected were Ye Zichen and Ye Sheng.
If they had rejected Zu Ying's "kindness" and chosen to do the same as the other colleagues, then clearly stated that they did not need to do anything behind the scenes in the Ancestral Dragon Clan, then they might have been able to gain the goodwill of the others.
Ye Zichen and Ye Sheng did not do that.
Thus, being ostracized was inevitable! Even if Zu Ying's kindness was fake, and she purposely did something behind the scenes to make the other highnesses and highnesses even more hostile towards them.
In other words … Zu Ying did not like connections, and she hated the existence of connections! Ye Zichen was wary of Zu Ying.
Ye Zichen did not choose to bring ten people. Instead, he chose eight, with Baal and Bei Yu as substitutes.
If his trip went smoothly without any accidents, then he would go with a full team of ten. If not, then he would give up on being a substitute.
However … On the third day after he left the Milky Way Galaxy …
He was attacked by a suspected war criminal.
Ye Zichen had traveled through the universe over a hundred times, but he had never encountered a war criminal.
Yet, he did on his trip to the Ancestral Dragon Clan.
It was too much of a coincidence.
What made Ye Zichen certain was the number of warships.
War criminals with sixteen interstellar warships! This was already a force that could threaten the safety of an entire galaxy. The Universe Nation could tolerate a few small-scale war criminals, but how could they possibly allow a war criminal of this caliber to enter their own Universe Nation?
And it just so happened.
Ye Zichen had brought two dukes, and four of the war criminals.
Ye Zichen was a general, and the dukes' subordinates were all warlords.
One coincidence was enough.
Multiple coincidences were definitely intentional! Then there was only one possibility … These war criminals had entered the Universe Nation with approval. Their identities were not war criminals, but rather … the first trial for Ye Zichen and the others who had been chosen to go to the Ancestral Dragon Clan!
