Chapter 66
Passing the lord trial safely was the goal.
"I still object."
In the silence, the half-dragon lord spoke up.
The half-dragon lord was a man with black hair reaching his waist, his muscular physique exposed, and mysterious tattoos on his body.
Half-dragons were a mix of human and dragon, possessing powerful melee abilities and the ability to cast some dragon language magic.
In the Holy Territory faction, half-dragons were also very strong members.
The only thing limiting this race was their fertility rate, which was quite touching.
In this regard, they failed to inherit the dragon race.
Because there were few of them, half-dragons had always been very united.
At this moment, when the half-dragon lord Musha spoke, the remaining four half-dragon lords stood by his side without hesitation.
"This session, our Holy Territory's lords can be called the strongest in three hundred years."
"Our goal should be to strive for the top three in this trial, not just to pass safely."
"Natasha, you disappoint me."
As Musha spoke, he stood up, looked around, and took in everyone's expressions.
Compared to before, this time not many people could openly support Musha.
The stimulation brought by Chen Ping's announcement was too strong.
One thousand points on the Golden Ranking, first to break an S-rank pillar of light in less than a day.
Regardless of which item, he firmly suppressed the strong people present.
Except for Musha himself, no one thought he could confront Chen Ping; after all, even Natasha, who was ranked fifth, admitted she was inferior to Chen Ping.
Musha's ranking was only thirteenth, a much larger gap.
"Ailan, what do you think? I want to lead the Holy Territory to a higher position; do you support me?"
Musha looked at the sea-race woman.
The sea race was a special race; humans of this lineage all had colorful hair, and there was always moist water vapor on their bodies.
The number of women in this lineage was far greater than men, so the leaders of the sea-race lineage had historically mostly been women.
And Ailan was the recognized leader of the sea-race humans this time, ranked twenty-third.
Compared to Natasha, Ailan looked much more charming, every move full of seductive charm, and it was unknown how many Holy Territory talents she had infatuated.
Hearing Musha's words, she smiled faintly and stood up as well.
"Admiration for the strong has always been human nature."
"Sister Natasha wants to follow Chen Ping, and I, Sister Ailan, also like the strong, but my strong person is you, Musha!"
Ailan's gaze was fiery as she spoke, making people intoxicated.
Having gained Ailan's support, Musha finally showed a smile on his face.
Of the four leaders, he and Ailan could be considered to have unified the front, so it depended on the attitude of the last one.
The half-elf man who had been silent sighed and looked at Natasha with a complex gaze.
"The first assessment, the major districts have not yet merged; isn't it too early for us to argue about this?"
"Chen Ping is very strong, perhaps the well-deserved number one in the East District."
"But when the four districts merge, that will be when the real test comes. I think it won't be too late for us to make a decision then."
"At the current stage, let's work hard to develop our respective territories; five hundred points, it's not hard to say it's hard, and it's not easy to say it's easy."
He didn't openly support anyone, but instead asked everyone to focus on the present.
However, Musha smiled after hearing this, his eyes full of playfulness as he looked at Natasha.
Even your own elf lineage doesn't clearly support you, Natasha; you betting on Chen Ping so early is simply a miscalculation.
The half-elf man's words received the support of all the other lords.
Merging districts is a matter for the future; if you can't pass this hurdle in front of you, everything is in vain.
As for Chen Ping, everyone tacitly agreed that he was not on the same level as them, so let the leaders worry about it.
Natasha nodded.
"Since that's the case, let's start acting. First, migrate all the territories together, then set off to explore the pillar of light and distribute points."
"As for the future, I am bound to join Chen Ping, so I will not give up any of the benefits that belong to me."
Natasha looked at the three leaders, the warning in her words self-evident.
That meant, I'm definitely joining Chen Ping!
Don't think that because I'll eventually leave the team, you can withhold the benefits that belong to my territory, otherwise, let's just fall out!
Musha's expression changed, and after a moment of silence, he nodded.
From then on, the leader of the Holy Territory was officially assumed by the half-dragon Musha.
Natasha returned to her team, Chen Ping's gentle smile appearing in her mind.
"I will work hard to develop my territory, wait for me to join, Lord Chen Ping."
Natasha said in her heart.
At this moment in the West District, in the desert of endless yellow sand, a huge pillar of light landed on a pyramid.
A large number of human lords were commanding turns to attack the guardian beasts on the pyramid.
This was where the S-rank pillar of light in the West District was located.
Guarding here was a group of mummy demons, constantly killing their way out from inside the pyramid and entangling with the humans.
Among them, a team of human soldiers was very brave.
Uniformly clad in golden armor, they marched in order, their offensive continuous.
They were the only ones who had reached the top of the pyramid and made contact with that huge pillar of light.
Only, under the repeated attacks, the pillar of light remained strong, and for a while, there was no sign of it breaking.
The S-rank pillar of light recovered 1% of its defense value every minute, which didn't feel like much in the short term.
But once there was no ability to crush the pillar of light, after the recovered amount came up, it was easy to make people manic.
The second on the Golden Ranking, the Golden Lord Saldo, pursed his lips and looked at the top of the pyramid.
He had just found the pillar of light an hour ago, and then led the lords who had joined him to launch a general attack on the pyramid.
As a result, until now, the pillar of light had not been broken.
Saldo looked at the firmament and saw Chen Ping's current points from the Golden Ranking: eighteen hundred points.
And his points were six hundred and fifty, not even comparable to a fraction of the other party's...
The usually confident Saldo had such a low pressure around him that people were almost afraid to get close.
Born into the Golden Family, when had he ever been left behind by such a gap?
When he first found the pillar of light, he was confident that he could break it quickly too.
In his view, Chen Ping was just lucky that the S-rank pillar of light happened to appear closest to him, which was why he managed to break it within a day.
But after fighting until now, his confidence had been crushed once.
According to the deduction speed of the pillar of light's defense value, he estimated that he would have to fight for another twelve hours to solve it.
Adding it all up, that was more than a day.
If there were no Chen Ping, this would be a very excellent result, enough to satisfy him.
But with Chen Ping in front, this result was very glaring.
Saldo silently took out a golden pendant from his pocket, played with it in his hand for a while, hesitant.
"Chen Ping, I admit I underestimated you..."
"However, the good show is yet to come; winning first doesn't mean winning, winning last takes it all..."
Saldo finally made up his mind and put the pendant back on his head.
With a wave of his hand, the reserve team behind him also entered the battlefield.
Only he didn't know under what circumstances Chen Ping had broken the pillar of light.
What he faced was not just the pillar of light's guardian beasts; he faced the two-in-one of the mysterious force of orcs and the guardian beasts!
It could be said that among the five major districts, only the S-rank pillar of light Chen Ping faced had the largest number of enemies and the highest intensity!
But even so, Chen Ping took the pillar of light in a record-breaking way!
At this moment, he put the gold card into his pocket and looked back outside.
The furious orc commander killed his way over regardless of everything.
Chen Ya led the Flying Tiger Cavalry to rush over to protect him; he had also been shocked by the powerful blow of Milan and the Shield Guards earlier. ===== CHAPTER 67 =====
