"This is the challenge letter sent by my Young Master. Your ranking is not worthy of being higher than my Young Master. Tomorrow morning, on the Divine Punishment Platform, we will fight. If you don't go, you will automatically admit defeat and drop one rank."
Early in the morning, a soldier who looked like an attendant showed up in Li Mu's yard. He knocked on the door and brought in a gold-stamped standard letter of challenge.
Li Mu was puzzled.
What was going on?
Ranking, the Divine Punishment Platform, what the hell was this?
The soldier threw the challenge invitation at Li Mu's feet and snorted arrogantly. Without waiting for Li Mu's response, he turned around and left.
Bi Yan, the little fox girl, came out, and there were still traces of crying in her eyes at night. She picked up the letter and opened it. The general content was that Lei Hong, the Heavenly Talent of the Wind Arena, ranked 988th on the list of the top 100 stars, challenged Li Yidao of the Brilliance Immortal Region, who was ranked 964th.
"Young Master, look."
She handed the letter directly to Li Mu.
"The list of the top 100 stars? What the hell is this? "
Li Mu was surprised after reading it.
When he was on the star governed by the Heavenly Fox Clan, there was a list of the top 60 talents in the Brilliance Immortal Star Region and the top 10 talents. At this time, there was another list of the top 100 stars, and he was ranked 964th.
Who made it?
When Li Mu looked at the challenge letter and pondered, the chubby deputy, Dongfang Meihua, came to the courtyard.
This seemingly rich man was also holding a booklet in his hand. When he looked up at the invitation in Li Mu's hand, his face beamed like a blooming bun. He said, "Yo, it seems that Young Hero Li has received the challenge invitation?"
As he said, he handed the booklet in his hand to Li Mu.
Li Mu took it and saw that it was the so-called "List of the Top 100 Stars".
"This is?"
Li Mu asked in confusion.
Dongfang Meili smiled and said, "This time, the Heavenly Fox Clan is looking for a husband for the little princess. It is a grand event in the entire Zi Wei Galaxy. All the hundred galaxies in the Galaxy have already sent their geniuses here. There are a total of 1,100 geniuses gathered on our Mother Planet. This is the official list of the combat strength of these 1,100 geniuses. It was just announced yesterday afternoon."
Hearing that, Li Mu immediately understood.
A total of 110 sectors had selected their respective top ten geniuses and gathered on the Mother Planet of the Heavenly Fox Clan. There were 1100 geniuses with varying levels of strength.
The officials of the Sky Fox clan ranked the 1,100 sky-prides according to what had happened in the preliminaries.
Dongfang Meili added, "The Divine Hall of my race has already announced that the prodigies on the Ranking of Prodigies can challenge each other to make a name for themselves and raise their ranking. The higher one's ranking is, the more advantageous they will have in the martial competition for a spouse."
Li Mu frowned.
This again?
Once the challenge began, it would probably be another bloodbath.
How many of these so-called 1,100 prodigies would be left in the end?
Moreover, wasn't such a method encouraging the geniuses of the various Galaxies to kill each other?
What on earth was the Heavenly Fox Clan thinking?
As if reading Li Mu's mind, Dongfang Meili added with a smile, "The decree issued by the Divine Fox Temple also said that such challenges must be carried out on the Immortal-slaying Platform. Moreover, only victory and defeat will be decided, not life and death. If one kills the challenger, he will be directly disqualified from the final martial arts competition for a spouse. Therefore, this is just a purely ranking battle, not a life-and-death duel."
Hearing this, Li Mu felt that it was reasonable.
It seemed that he had misunderstood the Heavenly Fox Clan.
"Deputy just said that the higher the ranking, the more advantageous the position in the martial arts competition for a spouse will be?" Li Mu asked, "What kind of advantageous position?"
The deputy, Dongfang Meili, shook her head and said, "I'm not sure about that. The specific rules of this martial arts competition have yet to be announced. However, since the Divine Hall has said so, the person with the highest ranking will definitely have an advantage. It is not impossible for him to meet the little princess of my clan, Daji, in advance."
Li Mu nodded thoughtfully.
He glanced at the challenge invitation in his hand.
Originally, he was not interested in the challenge of Lei Hong from the Thundercloud Galaxy, but now … he might as well go and meet him. Not only would he accept the challenge, but he would also challenge other Heavenly Legends to fight for a higher ranking. In this way, he might be able to meet Daji in advance and ask her about some things.
In fact, when Li Mu first arrived on the home planet of the Heavenly Fox Clan, he had thought of finding a way to meet little Daji first. But the Heavenly Fox Clan was heavily guarded, especially the higher-ups, who were like gods living in the Divine Hall. There was no way to meet them.
Before, Li Mu could not find a way.
But now, a way had appeared.
For Li Mu, the challenge suddenly became very necessary.
"By the way, deputy, I asked you to help me find out about the White Cloud Fairy. I wonder if …" Li Mu asked again.
The deputy said with a smile, "The White Cloud Fairy and the young master of the Deity Clan came to my clan's home planet yesterday. Now they are sightseeing. As for their specific whereabouts, it is not something that a deputy like me can find out. Young Hero Li, you can check it on the Immortal Net. Maybe you will find some clues."
Li Mu nodded.
The deputy continued, "Recently, all the things that happened in the Ziwei Star Zone, big or small, will be collected in our clan's current affairs bulletin. If you are interested, I will order someone to send it to you every day."
Li Mu was overjoyed and said, "Thank you so much."
After arriving on the home planet of the Heavenly Fox Clan, Li Mu had been trying to contact the intelligence agency of the Dark Yellow Tribe here. But there had been no response from the Commander's Order, which made Li Mu feel like he was blind. If he could see the current affairs bulletin of the Heavenly Fox Clan, he could at least get a general idea of the situation.
"By the way, about the attack on the Star Posthouse, is there any progress in the investigation?" Li Mu thought of another matter, and a trace of haze floated in his heart.
Deputy Dongfang Meili said, "There are some preliminary clues. The biggest suspect, the Divine Nest, has been cleared of suspicion. Some clues point to the Dark Sect, which has not appeared in the Ziwei Star Zone for a long time."
"Dark Sect?" Li Mu had never heard of this name.
Dongfang Meili said, "Young Hero, you have not heard of the Dark Sect, but you should have heard of the Dark Yellow Army, right?"
Li Mu's heart skipped a beat, and he said, "I have heard of it."
He was wearing a faceless mask, so others could not see his expression.
"The Dark Yellow Army is a tribe formed by the descendants of the former Sinners. They are hated by all the major forces in the Ziwei Star Zone. After tens of thousands of years of continuous war, both sides suffered casualties. The situation of the Dark Yellow Army has been deteriorating day by day. But even though we are on the opposite side, I have to admit that the Dark Yellow Army has always been clear about gratitude and grudges, and they have always acted in an extremely aboveboard manner. Later, I don't know what happened, but there was a split among them, and the Dark Yellow Army came into being. The Dark Yellow Army's means of conduct were extreme and ruthless. They slaughtered all the forces and carried out bloody revenge.
Li Mu was greatly surprised when he heard that.
"The Dark Yellow Army has such a history?"
"Why have I never heard of it?"
Dongfang Meili continued, "Later, due to differences in ideology, the Dark Division and the Dark Yellow Army completely split up. There were also several internal wars. The Dark Division was not tolerated by the forces in the universe, nor could it be tolerated by the Dark Yellow Army. They suffered heavy losses and gradually withered away. At that time, the leader of the Dark Division died in the battle while covering his subordinates' escape. He once swore that one day, the Dark Division would make a comeback and slaughter their former enemies to avenge the tribe that had died in battle."
When Li Mu heard that, his mood became a little complicated.
"So many years have passed. Hasn't the Dark Sect taken any action before?" he asked.
Dongfang Meili, the deputy courier, said worriedly, "All the major forces thought that the Dark Sect had been wiped out, and they haven't made any moves in these years. But they didn't expect that when they made a comeback, they would destroy so many Star Courier Stations with thunderous means. These Star Courier Stations belonged to the six top clans and were extremely rich. But they were looted by the Dark Sect, and the Dark Sect also obtained a lot of resources. They will definitely make a comeback. They have been preparing for this for many years. I'm afraid that there will be a big disaster in the future."
After hearing that, Li Mu gradually understood the context of the matter.
That was a grudge from the past.
The Dark Yellow Army still had such a history.
However, he thought of the strange corpses he saw in the destroyed Star Courier Station that day, which were clearly caused by that kind of Cultivation Method. When did she connect with the Dark Sect?
Or, in fact, the news obtained by the Heavenly Fox Clan and other major forces was actually wrong. The destruction of the Star Courier Station was not done by the Dark Sect, but by her, and she framed the Dark Sect that no longer existed?
After talking for a while, Dongfang Meili turned around and left. Before leaving, she said, "Young hero, if you need any help, you can come to me at any time. If you accept tomorrow's challenge, I will personally send you to the Immortal-slaying Platform."
Li Mu nodded and said, "In that case, thank you very much."
When the deputy courier left, Li Mu felt that something was wrong.
He thought for a long time before he realized that the deputy courier was too enthusiastic to him. He had prepared everything for him and provided all kinds of conveniences and services as if he were his subordinate.
"Why is that?"
"Does he have ulterior motives?"
Li Mu shook his head.
He looked at Bi Yan, the little fox girl beside him, and wondered if he should tell her what happened last night.
Although Linghu Shenyi didn't want to recognize her in order to protect her, Bi Yan might not think so. No matter how great the danger was, how could it be compared with the happiness of reuniting with her family?
It could be seen that Linghu Shenyi's situation was a little dangerous.
If Linghu Shenyi died one day, Bi Yan would not be able to see him and recognize him. That would eventually become the greatest regret in her life, wouldn't it?
Should he tell her now and let her choose for herself?
