"Madman, a lot of people are sneaking glances at you …" Mountain of Strength whispered to Lu Chen.
Lu Chen smiled. He was already used to this. "It doesn't matter."
Everyone set up a bonfire and the group sat in front of it.
Lu Chen didn't know when a furry little guy appeared in his hand. Lu Chen touched the little furry ball's head.
"Little fellow, come and try Chasing Cloud's barbecue. I wonder if you like it cooked."
The furry little fellow did not stand on ceremony and ate with relish.
Lu Chen smiled. The little fellow had almost recovered since it was injured last time.
He wondered if the furry little fellow and the little originator, as well as the little fellow who had just evolved after spending all his orange beast cores, would have a chance to fight tomorrow …
Everyone once again introduced the rules of the Myriad Tribes Tournament in detail. Lu Chen's sloppy and absent-minded look made people feel uneasy and had to confirm it.
The Myriad Tribes Tournament involved the territories of each race. This was the core interest of each race. Therefore, the rules of the tournament were completely different from ordinary tournaments.
At the start of the tournament, all the contestants went on stage!
On the stage of the Beast God Battlefield, a miniature version of the map of the Third Heaven had been drawn. Every contestant representing their race stood within their own territory.
Once everyone was in position, it was time for the free-for-all match.
Contestants could issue challenges to attack other contestants and seize the other party's territory. At most, they could seize 1% of the other party's territory.
In addition to the invasion of territory, contestants could also make other requests. For example, they could ask for specific resources, equipment, or even a specific person.
If the attacked party agreed to the other party's request, there would be no need to fight. If they refused, the result of the battle would determine the result.
Many races had more than one contestant. They would analyze the strength of both parties. It was possible to cede territory while invading other people's territory. Since there was a limit to the area seized in each tournament, a certain balance could be maintained.
"There are many powerful races in the Third Heaven. In fact, there is a mutual check and balance between them. They don't want to see a race's territory become too big. When a race with superior strength attacks another race, they also have to consider a sneak attack from their competitors. Therefore, the balance in the Third Heaven is a dynamic balance."
Lu Chen had always had a question. "There are still many races that haven't participated in the competition. Wouldn't they be at an advantage? Just like the human race, others can't invade our territory through martial arts competition. "
North Snow shook her head, "Brother Du Kuang, you make it sound too simple. Ever since we gave up on the Myriad Tribes Competition, our territory has been nibbled away. It has been nibbled away to the point that we can't take any more! Now, the remaining territory is the last bargaining chip in our hands. They also know that if they want to swallow the last piece of land, it means that they will have to exterminate the entire human race. They will encounter our desperate resistance. Any race that can survive in the Third Heavenly Layer doesn't have some foundation. They will have to pay a painful price to completely exterminate a race. "
"The war between races is much more complicated than we imagined. It's not just a war over territory. Although we only have this much territory left, we still have hundreds of millions of humans! How could a battle of life and death be child's play? Some large races do have the ability to exterminate the human race, but their vitality will inevitably be damaged. When the time comes, other powerhouses will take advantage of this and take advantage of the situation. "
Qiu Feng also said, "So, instead of taking the risk of exterminating the human race, they might as well collect resources from us. In fact, we have to send large amounts of materials to the various large races every year."
"That's right. If you lose the martial arts competition, there is a limit to the amount of territory you can cede. The tribute of resources is also within an acceptable range. But if you don't participate in the martial arts competition, you will do whatever the other party asks you to do."
"Our remaining territory is often invaded. We only dare to defend and don't dare to fight back."
Lu Chen nodded. Only now did he understand why the Monster Beasts dared to brazenly cross the border and attack the human race's territory during the Mountain Picking Team's time, but the human powerhouses didn't dare to take any action.
One reason was because they were weak, and the other was because they didn't participate in the martial arts competition. The human race had no right to resist!
"This is like boiling a frog in warm water …" Lu Chen shook his head.
"We know, but … there's nothing we can do about it. We can't afford to lose geniuses every time we compete … Now, they have finally found an excuse to join forces and exterminate the human race." Bu Nian sighed.
"Alright, alright. Don't pressure Brother Du Kuang anymore. Brother Du Kuang, I'm afraid you will have to fight continuously in tomorrow's battle. Today, you have traveled a long way. Rest well. We will keep an eye on you."
Lu Chen was indeed a little tired. Tomorrow's battle was going to start, so he didn't hold back and fell asleep immediately.
Looking at the starry sky above his head, Lu Chen repeatedly saw the two figures that had mercilessly abandoned him and his sister. They gradually went further and further away until they disappeared into the starry sky.
Tomorrow was going to be a so-called battle that could affect reality. His sister was just next door. Should he go offline and see her?
Forget it. Generally speaking, one shouldn't see their family members before a battle. It was the same principle as in movies and TV series, one should never take out a picture of their family members before a battle … Once they took it out, their privacy would be gone.
…
Early the next morning, the originally leisurely atmosphere suddenly changed.
Not long after, Lu Chen received a notification that the contestants had entered the "Third Heaven World Simulation Map".
"Madman, are we going to start?"
Lu Chen nodded his head.
"Brother Du Kuang, do your best!" Pulling Mountain stood up and looked around, clearly restless.
"Stinking brat!" Cowherd held Lu Chen's hand, which was already sweating. It was obvious that he had a lot to say, but he couldn't say it.
Perhaps some people cared about the human race's territory, but some people were more worried about Lu Chen's safety.
These people were more nervous than him. Lu Chen smiled and said, "I'm going!"
From each camp, people with serious expressions walked out and walked towards the center of the Demon God Battlefield. The ground there had already been a simulation map set up with some kind of array.
When Lu Chen walked over, who knew how many eyes were staring at him.
Lu Chen coldly snorted. There seemed to be a lot of people who had their eyes on him.
He didn't care and followed the instructions to the human race's simulated territory.
The simulated territories of the various races were of different sizes. The larger ones were empty when a few people stood inside, like a soccer field! The smaller ones were also empty when a few people could move around freely.
Only Lu Chen's place, probably with two feet standing there, there was no rich place.
It was such a small place, but it was bordered by the territories of several races. Lu Chen stood there like a nail on the map.
"Hahahaha, brat, you humans actually came to participate in the tournament. Are you trying to put up a final struggle?" The surrounding Demonic Beast Race contestants laughed loudly.
"They can actually hold one person. I think they enlarged the human race's territory," another Demonic Beast Race contestant said. The Demonic Beast Race's territory was dozens of times bigger than the human race's …
"Such a palm-sized place can actually hold hundreds of millions of you? You humans are indeed like ants. Hurry up and disappear, "a Titan Race contestant said coldly.
"You humans will go extinct sooner or later. But before that, leave behind what you have!" the Sky Fiend Race contestant said in a low voice.
"Don't worry, we will treat you well later so that you won't feel so uncomfortable."
Lu Chen smiled and said, "The human race welcomes you. Don't be polite later."
