Chapter 145

They were still waiting to continue arguing their case when they suddenly saw Chen Ping glance around.

It was such a flat, indifferent look, yet it effectively forced everyone to shut their mouths.

The silver-white Qilin was already tall and imposing, and Chen Ping, sitting atop it, appeared exceptionally heroic.

When he stopped smiling and instead swept his calm gaze over the crowd, a massive pressure descended upon the scene like a mountain.

The lords with slightly weaker constitutions even felt as if they couldn't breathe.

It was as if Chen Ping's gaze possessed tangible power!

Even those few lords who had previously declared their allegiance to Natasha couldn't help but swallow hard at this moment.

Even during the fighting tonight, Chen Ping's face had carried a faint smile.

They had assumed Chen Ping was simply an approachable person.

They hadn't expected that by simply withdrawing his smile, his aura would shift so drastically.

Only now did this version of Chen Ping truly align with the person everyone imagined as the number one on the Golden List.

How could someone who dominates the top of the Golden List be easily manipulated by a few words from the likes of you!?

Natasha was also filled with emotion at this moment.

This was the alliance leader she had chosen for this trial.

Before tonight, no one had understood her actions.

Everyone had been saying that Natasha was bolstering the morale of others while destroying her own prestige.

But now, who would dare say such things?

When Chen Ping truly appeared before everyone, how could people still dare to say anything about Natasha?

A deathly silence fell over the surroundings, and all the lords felt a profound sense of awe toward Chen Ping.

At this moment, within the Holy Spirit Alliance, behind that circle of watchtowers, figures walked out slowly.

Chen Ping heard the movement and turned his gaze toward the direction of the Holy Spirit Alliance.

Ai Lan, who had just walked out, made contact with Chen Ping's gaze and couldn't help but feel her legs go weak, nearly kneeling down.

Fortunately, the person beside her reacted in time, reaching out to support Ai Lan.

"Very well, at least you haven't lost all your dignity."

"The justice I demand, can you provide it?"

Chen Ping flicked the head of the silver-white Qilin, and the tall beast carried him to Natasha's side.

Ai Lan suppressed the palpitation in her heart, looking at Natasha and Chen Ping with a complex gaze.

When she had squeezed Natasha out in the beginning, she had never imagined she would encounter such a situation tonight.

"Respected Lord Chen Ping, the Holy Spirit Alliance will provide sufficient compensation, including for all the lords who suffered losses tonight."

"In any place where Lord Natasha appears, provided it does not involve life-or-death survival, the Holy Spirit Alliance, starting from myself, will retreat three stages."

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, all the lords on the periphery were so shocked they didn't know what to say.

Your Holy Spirit Alliance is, after all, the number one alliance in the Southern District; before tonight, no one dared to block you.

Tonight, you actually said something like 'retreating three stages'?

Then, in the future, is your Holy Spirit Alliance still going to compete for points or not?

If Natasha has nothing to do all day and just wanders around your Holy Spirit Alliance, is your Holy Spirit Alliance just going to do nothing at all?

Natasha was also astonished; she hadn't expected Ai Lan to give such a response.

But in terms of sincerity, this was absolutely sincere to the fullest extent.

Even the other few lords had nothing to say.

However, Natasha really wanted to ask Ai Lan: did you get Mu Sha's approval for this?

Her gaze swept over Ai Lan and the others, but she found she didn't see Mu Sha's figure, and many conjectures immediately surfaced in her heart.

And compared to Natasha, the other Southern District lords were simply shocked beyond measure.

Because when it comes down to it, this matter tonight is actually very simple!

Chen Ping crossed the Mist Zone to reach the Southern District, and then, with his own strength, shattered the pride of the Holy Spirit Alliance!

Number one on the Golden List, terrifying to this extent!

109: Shaking the Four Directions, Strategy for the Southern District

The hazy night sky.

Because of its location in the Chaos Sea, the stars in the sky had become illusory and impossible to identify.

Therefore, the nights in the Trial World were not bright, and it was difficult to distinguish things from a distance.

Under such night conditions, a team walking in the wilderness transporting a large amount of supplies was no different from a fat sheep.

But if this team had a silver-white Qilin with electricity on its four hooves.

And coincidentally, there was a man wearing a Star Set riding on it.

Then, in the entire Southern District, no one would want to make a move on this team.

They wouldn't even dare to get close, and could only watch the team leave from afar.

Because this was the team from Jiuzhou.

This was the team from Tianqu.

This was a team that had just shattered the number one alliance in the Southern District tonight with an absolutely inferior force.

Many lords who were still rushing to their alliances saw Chen Ping's departing team.

Many of them went directly to the side of the team to request an audience with Chen Ping.

And Chen Ping did not refuse anyone; he greeted everyone who came in a friendly manner.

His attitude was so humble that it made people suspect that the previous descriptions of Chen Ping on the public channel were all slander.

The big shot is clearly very humble; you guys said before that the big shot was intimidating you—are you farting?

Hehe, maybe these people did something to offend the big shot?

The person above hit the nail on the head; this group of fools tried to use the big shot, and the big shot not killing them is already giving them face.

Not knowing life from death...

All kinds of discussions emerged one after another, and the lords of the Southern District didn't go easy on each other either.

For them, tonight was simply a spectacular play, a feast.

All kinds of surprises and reversals emerged one after another.

Not to mention the Southern District lords, even within the Holy Spirit Alliance, they still had lingering fears until now.

After Ai Lan gave Chen Ping the justice he wanted with the most decisive attitude, she finally sent Chen Ping away.

Natasha and the others not only got back all the supplies belonging to their territory, but also took away a large amount of reserve supplies.

With this batch of supplies, the several lords whose territories were destroyed tonight would soon be able to complete their reconstruction.

These were all supplies that the Holy Spirit Alliance had stored up on weekdays, and they lost more than half of them tonight.

But at the time, no one felt it was wrong.

Your own main force was beaten to a pulp on your own turf; what else did you expect?

Negotiation is always a continuation of war.

If you lose on the battlefield, who would be naive enough to think they could hold onto benefits at the negotiating table?

This time, from the moment the Holy Spirit Alliance made a move against Natasha, the mistake was destined.

One wrong step, every step wrong; in the end, they could only cut flesh to apologize.

And Ai Lan's attitude was also very decisive; what should be compensated was compensated, and what should be yielded was yielded.

Even the decision to retreat three stages in any place Natasha appeared was made, and Natasha had nothing more to say.

After Chen Ping and the others left, the people of the Holy Spirit Alliance all looked at Ai Lan silently.

Mu Sha did not appear from beginning to end; this leader in the true sense of the Holy Spirit Alliance had truly lost the hearts of the people tonight.

If it weren't for Ai Lan not wanting it, they might have pushed Ai Lan to be the leader tonight.

And although most of the lords who remained outside the alliance had dispersed, many still remained in the vicinity.

They were spying on the Holy Spirit Alliance, seemingly wanting to pry into the bottom line of the Holy Spirit Alliance.

Although there was no support from Chen Ping, everyone's ambition had been stirred up by the agitation just now.

To really let them retreat just like that, they were truly unwilling.

One by one, the lords, with their subordinates, circled the territory of the Holy Spirit Alliance like a pack of wolves.

Ai Lan looked coldly at those lords circling on the side.
