Chapter 455: The Eight Great Families Welcome Guests

The starry sky of the Hezong Alliance realm is remarkably brilliant.White represents the immortal realm.Blue represents the human realm.The demon realm is purple, the ghost realm is black, the demon realm is green, the Asura realm is red, and the divine realm is gold.Only the Hezong Alliance realm is colorful.Li An stood at the window of the spaceship, looking out.The vibrant starry sky did not strike him as beautiful.For this hue, like the jade he had bought as a child, was artificially synthesized.It was as if a giant hand had forcibly fused the less powerful races of the universe together, forming a single piece of colorful jade.This jade was utterly unnatural, its various colors repelling each other. The brighter the color, the greater the repulsion.So, Li An did not find it beautiful, but rather a deadly illusion.The spaceship slowly landed on Cross City.Cross City was the capital of the Hezong Alliance realm. It was enormous and home to a diverse mix of people. He drew closer to the landing pad. The area below was deserted, save for the greeters from the eight major interest groups.The wind blew strongly across the vast expanse of flat ground, ruffling the greeters' fur.The representative of the Cloud Pavilion was a white ape. Though a demon, he possessed an otherworldly aura.The representative of the Golden Treasure Tower was a six-armed humanoid, tall but lean, wearing glasses and possessing a shrewd gaze.The representative of the Insect Circle was a mantis with a human face. It barely resembled a human face, but it was rather terrifying. I almost thought it was from a horror movie.The representative of the Jisheng Hall was a towering black mech, which excited the boys.It is said that the operator of each mech is a true living being, but they have discarded their physical bodies, leaving only their spirit and soul, connected to their unique mechanical creations.The representative of the Savage Mountain was a giant beast, menacing and ferocious, its entire body covered in immense muscle. The representative of Leiju was a one-eyed humanoid with cartilaginous limbs.Leiju was the territory of the humanoid race, and all races with similar appearances to humans were called humanoids.Curiously, the word "human" did not originate from the modern human race.By some strange coincidence, many years ago, other races called single-headed, four-limbed, standing creatures "humans."The immortals, the gods, and the elves all bore similarities to humans in appearance.Yet they all considered themselves humanoids and were proud of it.They didn't feel offended when the human race emerged and called themselves human.Now that Li An saw the Leiju representative, he realized that while everyone's race shared the word "human," they were actually very different. The one below didn't even have bones.What a strange species.The Wujihai representative was somewhat unexpected.Everyone expected it to be some underwater creature or an amphibious creature, like a seal or crocodile.It turned out to be a seagull. A large white bird yawned leisurely.Finally, Li An's gaze fell on the representative of the Heart of Tree Forest.Not just him; the eyes of almost all the humans were on that person.Because the representative of the Heart of Tree Forest wasn't a tree person, but a panda.The panda was sitting cross-legged on the ground, hugging a bamboo stick, nodding its head, as if dozing off."Boom! Boom! Boom!"The vibration caused by the spaceship's landing woke the panda.Unexpectedly, he patted his butt and took two steps back, not even aligning himself with the other seven representatives.He seemed to be either here to recruit or to sleep.Then.The hatch of the spaceship opened.Ninety geniuses emerged one by one.The head of the Spirit Team, Ren, walked towards the Ascension Hall without hesitation.The black mech nodded excitedly.Ren said coldly, "I need that spiritual power-enhancing item from your family.""No problem!" the black mech responded instantly. But he never imagined.The creatures living in Savage Mountain came directly to snatch the person, offering Ren an astronomical sum.Ren's heart was instantly moved, and he was unsure what to do.Then.Zhen, Zang, and the other contestants left the stage one by one.The seagulls of Wuji Sea suddenly whistled, and a swarm of birds flew in from the sky.These birds, wearing glasses, looked like insurance salesmen, swarming over and began snatching the person.The human-faced mantis from the Insect Garden snorted coldly.He was ugly, but that didn't matter.The Insect Tribe was not without its beautiful members.With a casual command, he sent a swarm of butterfly elves flying behind him, each one embodying the aesthetics of the three tribes.Seduction was the best way to snatch a person.The Savage Mountain didn't have beautiful women, but they did have flesh.All the warriors in the group needed flesh to enhance their physical bodies. The once quiet landing strip suddenly became like a market. The seven great families were now like seven immortals crossing the sea, each showcasing their talents to snatch talent. The geniuses of the first and second ranks were surrounded by their own subordinates."I already have a place in mind.""I know you're anxious, but don't worry. Listen to us explain our bargaining chips, and you'll definitely change your mind.""Go away. What do you have in Wuji Sea? Stop clamoring like a bunch of seagulls. Come to my Leiju. Black skin, white skin, Furui, you name it. Sir, don't you want to know what it's like to live like an emperor?!"A variety of emotions erupted across the vast plain.Li An watched it all, thinking this was too socialized.From top to bottom, the seven great families were all seasoned veterans, mastering the minds of the young geniuses. Resources, fame, power, women, male favorites—as long as you asked, they were all yours."Looks like everyone's going to have some fun."Li An grumbled, then said goodbye to Shuangxue. One headed toward the Cloud Pavilion, the other toward the Heartwood.Unexpectedly.Li An and Shuangxue were also popular, and were immediately surrounded.Shuangxue had a bad temper, and after releasing her aura, she coldly said, "Get lost."The white ape from the Cloud Pavilion nodded respectfully and said, "Welcome the Frost Emperor to join us."Frost Emperor, what kind of title is that?It simply made the others dumbfounded.But was it wrong?Frostxue's natural talent was that of the Ice Emperor, as everyone knew.Now that she had overcome the chasm of Tiancan, becoming a true Ice Emperor was only a matter of time.Not to mention, her previous command, "Get lost," was so domineering, as if she were a king.At this moment, Shuangxue looked at the white ape and said, "I'll take three more humans with me."The white ape smiled and said, "Guaranteed."Seeing that Shuangxue had finished, Li An also disembarked from the spaceship. He was quite polite, clasping his fists at the employees blocking his path and saying, "Make way, make way. Sorry, I already have someone I love."At this moment, the ancient beast, the representative of Savage Mountain, actually squeezed over and slapped the seagulls and butterflies away with a single blow. He stood before Li An and said, "Mr. Li, we, the master of Savage Mountain, hope you will join us. Your price is yours."Li An asked in surprise, "Why me? I'm not the strongest martial artist."Saving this, Savage Mountain quickly shook his head, smiled mysteriously, and whispered, "Everyone knows you single-handedly challenged Yu Jingnian?""You're being modest, Master Li.""Not to mention, few of those currently ranked higher than you are purely physical; they all possess a fusion of dual talents.""You're different.""Pure physical form, supreme boxing skills, the only master of horizontal training in the Cultivation Temple. Although you haven't yet activated your power, I can already sense the volcanic energy within you.""Saving Mountain is your best choice!""Together, we're sure to win the ultimate grand prize within the next six months."Li An raised an eyebrow and said, "The ultimate grand prize?""Hehe," the Savage Mountain representative said, his voice lowering a bit. "Come to Savage Mountain, and we'll discuss this in detail!"
