Because of Torre's harsh words, everyone in the hall couldn't help but shiver. The Mana in the hall seemed to have sensed Torre's anger and turned icy cold. For a moment, everyone felt as if they were carrying a mountain on their backs. Their bodies felt indescribably heavy. Some of the Refinement Realm rookies couldn't even move.
The Tier 3 Assassin who had come to report to Torre also felt an intense pressure weighing down on him. If he hadn't been certain that Torre wasn't targeting him, he would've most likely turned tail and fled.
"Instructor Torre thinks so highly of Solitary Frost and the others?" Crimson Star was surprised when she saw Torre's icy expression.
Torre had stopped teaching ten years ago. The last batch of newcomers he had taught had been the commander of the same batch. She had also been Torre's proudest disciple. Back then, Torre had even paid a hefty price to hire the Flame Relayer, hoping that the Flame Relayer would guide her.
Now that Torre had suddenly agreed to teach Solitary Frost and Yan Xiaoqian, the Guild's upper echelons were surprised.
She had assumed that Torre was doing this out of respect for the Zeus Corporation, but now, it seemed that he was serious about teaching Solitary Frost and Yan Xiaoqian. Otherwise, Torre wouldn't have vented his anger on others.
"Instructor Torre, I'm afraid that it won't do us any good to chase them away. Although Ling Yi doesn't have much power on the western continent, he can contend with quite a few superpowers on the eastern continent. He even controls the Dark World's Teleportation Gate. If we don't meet their Guild Leader, it'll be unreasonable," Wildfighter hurriedly said when he saw Torre's rage.
Although Ling Yi wasn't developing on the western continent, as a veteran Super Guild, they had a general understanding of the Ling YI Society. Even if they didn't want to, they had to know about Ling Yi. After all, Ling Yi had been in the limelight on the eastern continent recently, and many superpowers had been talking about him.
"Did Zero Wing's Guild Leader come alone?" Crimson Star asked when she saw the Tier 3 Assassin's report.
"No. Over a dozen people came with him, including Long Wushang and a few others from the Azure Chamber of Commerce's Long Family," the Tier 3 Assassin said.
"The Long Family? They sure are fast. "Wildfighter frowned.
When he had learned that the Long Family's Silent Wonder had won first place, he knew that it would be difficult to convince the Long Family to obey him. The Long Family was one of the strongest members of the younger generation, after all. Meanwhile, the Zeus Corporation was only one of Azure's shareholders. It wasn't the Long Family's absolute majority. If the other shareholders saw the Long Family's potential, they'd most likely side with the Long Family. That way, the Long Family's dominance in the Azure Chamber of Commerce would be difficult to shake.
Therefore, the Pang Family had the capital to negotiate with Violet Sword. It was only a matter of time before they came to negotiate with Violet Sword.
"It seems the Pang Family is very confident this time. Otherwise, they wouldn't have come so quickly," Crimson Star said.
"It's very likely because of Ling Yi. After all, Ling Yi has partnered with the Nether Empire. In addition, Ling Yi helped Silent Wonder win first place in the family competition. The Long Family must be quite capable when it comes to nurturing talents. Hence, the Long Family doesn't care about the Zeus Corporation's and Violet Sword's support," Wildfighter said after giving the matter some thought.
The most important thing for a Guild's development was talent and resources. The Azure Chamber of Commerce had no problems in terms of talent, but it was far from comparable to veteran Super Guilds like Violet Sword. If the Chamber of Commerce wanted to develop further, it would have to cooperate with Violet Sword. This was also what Azure's various families and Guild Elders had hoped for.
If the Long Family and the Azure Chamber of Commerce had a guarantee of nurturing talents, neither the Long Family nor the Azure Chamber of Commerce would care about cooperating with Violet Sword. After all, cooperating with Violet Sword came at a steep price. They might even become the Guild's vassal. In addition, the Zeus Corporation was also pressuring them to do so.
"This is interesting. Have them wait in the reception room," Torre suddenly said. "I want to see just how capable Ling Yi, who helped Silent Wonder defeat Solitary Frost, is. He actually gave the Long Family such confidence!"
"Understood!"
The Tier 3 Assassin breathed out a sigh of relief when he saw that Torre had calmed down. He then hurried to the Residence's entrance.
Meanwhile, a group of players had gathered at the entrance of Violet Sword's Residence, discussing Ling Yi's group.
After all, Ling Yi's group stood out like a sore thumb in front of Violet Sword's entrance.
One was a gigantic eagle with a wingspan of over 20 meters. Arcs of electricity crackled around its body. The other was a gigantic bone dragon that radiated a chilling aura. Both of these creatures had the aura of a Grand Lord of the same level. When the two appeared together, it was a challenge to the spectators.
"Crap! Who are they? Both of their Flying Mounts can rival Violet Sword's Netherflame Eagle! They actually have two of them! "
"Look at their Guild Emblems. They should be from the same Guild."
"What an amazing Guild! If I remember correctly, Violet Sword has only gotten two Transcendent mounts so far, and they have two of them. "
…
To current God's Domain players, Flying Mounts were still out of reach. Even large Guilds only had a few Flying Mounts. Moreover, these Flying Mounts were the most common type. Even so, the various large Guilds could boast about their Flying Mounts to the public. After all, Flying Mounts represented a Guild's mobility, allowing the Guild's main force members to save a lot of time traveling.
As for an Extraordinary Mount capable of contending with a Grand Lord of the same level, the various large Guilds would go crazy over it. After all, not everyone could contend with a Grand Lord of the same level. Most Tier 3 experts would flee the moment they encountered a Grand Lord. Only a team of Tier 3 experts could deal with such a creature.
If a player had an Extraordinary Mount, not only would they have a much easier time dealing with Field Grand Lords, but they would also have a much wider range of activity. They could also explore more dangerous, resource-rich locations to level up.
While the players on the street quietly discussed the situation, Long Wushang, who stood before Violet Sword's entrance, grew nervous. He hadn't expected the Shifeng to be telling the truth. After the family competition ended, the Shifeng Guild had immediately visited Violet Sword to discuss the matter. He hadn't even given Violet Sword any time to calm down.
After all, the Zeus Corporation and Violet Sword's plan to replace Azure's leader had been foiled. They would definitely be furious, especially with Ling Yi, who had interfered with their plans.
Right now, even if they had the capital to negotiate with the Zeus Corporation and Violet Sword, they shouldn't have come here while the other party was in a fit of anger. If that happened, not only would it be impossible to change the Zeus Corporation and Violet Sword's plans, but it might even backfire on them.
"Wonder, why don't you try to persuade your Guild Leader? Even if he wants to negotiate with Violet Sword, this isn't the right time," Long Wushang whispered to Wonder. "If that happens, not only will Violet Sword hold a grudge against us, but we'll also lose the advantage we've worked so hard to secure in the Azure Chamber of Commerce."
The Azure Chamber of Commerce's Elders and Grand Elders didn't particularly care if their partnership with Violet Sword failed. However, if Azure became Violet Sword's enemy, the Chamber of Commerce would be doomed. After all, many of Azure's resource nodes were under the control of Violet Sword and some Super Guilds. If Violet Sword announced that it no longer cared about Azure's resource nodes, those Super Guilds wouldn't hesitate to attack those resource nodes.
"I'll give it a try, then," Silent Wonder said, nodding in agreement with Long Wushang's words.
Currently, Ling Yi didn't have any roots on the western continent. Violet Sword could easily deal a significant blow to Azure. Furthermore, if Ling Yi wished to develop on the western continent in the future, he'd have to deal with Violet Sword. She didn't want to see a conflict arise because of her.
However, as Silent Wonder left Xiang Shifeng's residence, a Tier 3 Assassin emerged from Violet Sword's entrance and approached the Shifeng.
"President Hei Yan, sorry for the wait. Please, follow me."
"Alright."
After saying so, Shifeng and the others unsummoned their Flying Mounts and followed the Tier 3 Assassin into Violet Sword's Residence, giving Silent Wonder no chance to speak.
Meanwhile, inside Violet Sword's Residence, Long Wushang, Silent Wonder, and the others were similarly surprised when they entered the Residence.
Not only were Violet Sword's members high-leveled, but many of them were also Tier 3 experts. Along the way, they saw more than 100 Refinement Realm experts. The ancient castle in the center of the Residence, in particular, was so dense that the Mana density was visible to the naked eye, forming a faint white mist around it. Moreover, the castle itself gave off an ancient aura. It was obvious that this castle was extraordinary.
Moreover, Violet Sword's members exuded frightening auras as they entered and exited the castle. Many of them were even stronger than Azure's talented newcomers.
So, this is Violet Sword? Silent Wonder was astonished when she saw the dozen or so Tier 3 young experts entering the castle.
This was only one of Violet Sword's Residences. Violet Sword still had plenty of training grounds and secret lands. If all of these newcomers gathered together, Violet Sword would have an unimaginable number of Refinement Realm and Flowing Water Realm experts. Moreover, this was only one of Violet Sword's Residences. Violet Sword had plenty of training grounds and secret lands. If all of these newcomers gathered together, Violet Sword would have an unimaginable number of powerful newcomers.
"This way, please!"
The Tier 3 Assassin leading the way said as he pointed at the Guild Hall across the street. When he saw Silent Wonder and Long Wushang's shocked expressions, he couldn't help but feel proud.
Violet Sword was indeed slightly weaker than the Five Great Super Guilds, but when it came to nurturing talents, the Guild was no less capable than the Five Great Super Guilds. This was why Violet Sword was so proud of itself. No ordinary Super Guild could compare to it.
A short moment later, the Tier 3 Assassin led Shifeng and the others to a reception room on the Guild's top floor.
At this time, three people were already seated in the reception room. They were none other than Torre, Wildfighter, and Crimson Star. However, all three wore solemn expressions, and they didn't try to suppress their auras. Their auras were so intense that everyone in the room felt stifled. It was obvious that they wanted to intimidate Ling Yi.
"Sure enough."
Long Wushang could not help but shake his head as he looked at the three Assassins. He already knew that this conversation wouldn't end well. In fact, there was no need for any further discussion. The aura in the room was simply too powerful. Even peak experts would find it difficult to breathe, let alone ordinary players.
Aside from Shifeng, Silent Wonder, and Violet Cloud, most likely, no one else in the room would be able to stand up to such an overbearing aura.
The Tier 3 Assassin beside Shi Feng sneered. Although Zero Wing was a large Guild that could rival superpowers, Violet Sword wasn't an ordinary Guild, either. Zero Wing wasn't some ordinary Guild that could meet and converse with Violet Sword whenever they wanted.
"This room really is stuffy. Aqua, why don't you take off your cloaks? You'll feel cooler that way," Shifeng said calmly as he looked at the three people in the room.
