The difference in class.
Sometimes, it was just that cruel.
When you didn't have the qualifications to enter that circle, you would inevitably see a cruel world.
Ye Zichen wasn't mocking Karkat.
He was actually feeling a bit of pity for Karkat.
When faced with an opponent of a lower class, he would inevitably be threatened.
Even if he was an Eminence, he'd been demoted.
If he'd maintained his position, the Mercenary Alliance would've continued to focus on nurturing him.
He would've been able to compete with them.
But Karkat didn't.
The only reason he could remain in his position was because the Mercenary Alliance cared about face and kept him.
Put yourself in his shoes.
If Ye Zichen were in his shoes and experienced his situation, he would definitely be troubled as well.
Even though he had the Milky Way Galaxy and the connections left behind by the Milky Way Master were powerful enough.
They allowed him to come into contact with people of any level without any worries.
That was because he had a powerful background behind him.
Background was also a form of strength.
There was nothing wrong with what Zu Ying said.
Even if he didn't like people with connections, there was no doubt that background was strength.
"If that's the case, that Karkat is rather pitiful," Xia Keke pursed her lips.
Xia Keke pursed her lips and said softly, "Due to the difference in rank, he has to be cautious in everything he does. He can't even compete fairly in the trial."
"The world has never been fair."
Ye Zichen wasn't moved in the slightest, nor did he blame himself for his actions.
What right did he have to blame himself?
! If he was the one with a lower class, he would face all of this too.
What's more, they were competitors, so this was understandable.
It was all for the sake of winning.
"Actually, being overcautious is just one thing. It's very possible that if he loses, his position as Eminence will be revoked," said Bai Yu.
"This is a trial. On the surface, it's the second round, but in reality, it's a contest between the Virtual World Alliance and the Cangyue Galaxy."
"I agree."
Hua Jianrou nodded solemnly.
This time's trial was very clear from the participants.
The Cangyue Galaxy and the Virtual World Alliance. Ye Zichen was the representative of the Virtual World Alliance.
The Ancestral Dragon Clan had intentionally made him a participant and left a black hole in the dark universe to forcibly pull him into the trial.
The purpose of this was already very clear.
Moreover, the Mercenary Alliance was on the red side. Someone must have done this intentionally.
This person … was extremely likely to be the Starlord of Azuremoon Galaxy.
Only supreme beings had the right to speak to the Ancestral Dragon Clan. Moreover, they were able to accept the suggestion. This showed how much authority the person who suggested it had.
Cang Yue was the most suspicious person.
By doing this, he had also brought the conflict between the Virtual World Alliance and the Cangyue Star System Alliance to the surface.
Even if he didn't think so.
The human race in the universe would definitely think this way.
If Ye Zichen lost, everyone in the universe would definitely discuss it. The Milky Way Galaxy would lose face, and the Virtual World Corporation would suffer the same fate.
And vice versa.
"Karkat has been neglected by the Mercenary Alliance for a thousand years."
Bai Yu furrowed his brows and muttered, "Otherwise, with his status as a count, he'd already be a feudal minister. However, he still hasn't taken up any official position.
If it had been other Majesties or Majesties who had lost this trial, the Mercenary Alliance might have blamed them. However, they still had a future to look forward to.
If Karkat loses, the Mercenary Alliance will instantly erupt with all their grievances. Revoking his position as His Highness would be a relatively light punishment. "
"That can't be, right?"
The flame rat froze.
"There's nothing impossible about it. It's inevitable," said Hua Jianrou.
"It's just as Ye said, Karkat will definitely hold back. If he loses, he'll definitely lose his position as His Highness. Right now, he's stuck between a rock and a hard place."
"Doesn't that mean he can only hope for a draw?"
Meng Luo arched her brows.
"That's right."
Ye Zichen, who was sitting in his cabin, also chimed in.
"He can only hope for a draw, but the chances of a draw are too slim. I just don't know how he'll respond."
On the Sacred Region's main planet.
Enormous pressure weighed down on Karkat's heart. That was why he'd gone outside to get some fresh air.
He couldn't stay in his cabin any longer.
That kind of pressure made it hard for him to breathe.
He'd thought of it too.
If he lost, he'd definitely lose his position as His Highness, and it was highly likely that his entire clan would be implicated as well.
If he won, Ye Zichen would annihilate his entire clan.
All he could do was fight to a draw! Everyone knew that, given their current situation, the chances of a draw were extremely slim.
This was because they had a huge supply of resources.
Ye Zichen and co. could obtain a huge amount of points.
On the other hand, Ye Zichen and co. only had two battleship camps, so they could obtain very few points.
He didn't dare to defeat Ye Zichen in the beginning, but if the Milky Way's reinforcements arrived later on and took back the camps, then instantly upgraded them to above the titled level, then it would be a fatal blow to them.
If they really wanted a draw, there was only one way.
That was, those Sovereigns might not listen to his idea.
However, he was also secretly glad that those Sovereigns didn't adopt his original idea. Back then, he'd suggested a quick attack and directly destroy the blue side.
If those Sovereigns had really accepted it, then the Milky Way Lords would've already hated him.
Within the huge palace.
This was where Tianhai used to live. Now, it had been taken over by the invaders and became their territory.
Four Venerable experts stood at the very front. Below them were many Monarchs and King level experts. They were the commanders of the army.
"Later on, we will launch the final attack on the Milky Way's side and the remnants of the Divine Region."
"We can't give them any time to breathe."
"Otherwise, when the Milky Way's reinforcements arrive, we will be at a disadvantage.
Although the Milky Way didn't send a lot of people this time, they are all elites.
I know those two Sovereigns as well. Both of them are highly ranked amongst the Sovereigns of the Ninth Prison. "
"The four of us might not be their match," the Sovereigns said without any hesitation.
The Venerable expert did not hide anything. There was no need to hide such a thing.
There was no need to feel embarrassed about it.
If they couldn't beat them, then they couldn't beat them. It was better to say it now than to be exposed later.
"Sovereigns, you can't beat them?"
"You should know that the two Sovereigns that came are Light Controller Sovereigns, and Time Controller Sovereigns. They are the cream of the crop amongst the Sovereigns.
The four of us are Martial Sovereigns, so it will be rather difficult for us to face Controllers, "the Sovereigns smiled wryly.
"But you don't have to worry. They still need a year or so to get here. That's more than enough time for us to get rid of the remnants."
"Understood!"
Everyone replied solemnly.
"Kakat, you are one of the trial participants this time. Do you have any objections?
Bring it up! "
"I … Sir Sovereigns, I do have an immature idea. I hope you can accept it."
Kakat walked forward. The Sovereigns nodded slowly. "Speak."
"I hope that we can return the camp that belongs to the blue side!"
"Please accept it, Sovereigns!"
