Chapter 537
"Those participating in this battle are all renowned Demon Emperors from various races within our True Demon Realm. There are 20 of them in total. Each one is incredibly powerful and should not be underestimated."
Benboba was originally leaning comfortably in the chair, with his legs crossed, one hand tapping lightly on the armrest, with a lazy look on his face, as if it had nothing to do with him.
Hearing Li Ming's words, he was stunned at first, his eyes widened instantly, his eyes were full of surprise and disbelief, and his mouth opened slightly:
"20? What...what does this have to do with me? I don't have the heart to join in on this fun."
As he spoke, he patted his belly and curled his lips.
Li Ming leaned forward slightly, sitting straighter, staring at Benboba with sincere eyes, his tone filled with a bit of urgency:
"Chief Ben, please don't say that. In the eyes of the Demon Emperor, you are like a shining pearl hidden in the darkness, with potential beyond imagination. He sent me here this time because he hopes you can participate in this battle, and you must give your all to win first place! This is a golden opportunity for you to be remembered forever."
“What the hell!”
Benboba suddenly jumped up from his chair as if he had been electrocuted. His eyes were as big as copper bells, his face was full of shock, and the veins on his forehead were slightly bulging.
"What are you saying? You want me to fight for that position? Don't be kidding me. Which of those Demon Emperors isn't a tough guy who has fought countless battles? With my limited skills, won't I be beaten to a pulp if I go in?"
As he spoke, he waved his hands excitedly, his face full of reluctance, and his brows were tightly furrowed like two twists of dough.
Li Ming smiled and shook his head, his eyes revealing his firm trust in Benboba's strength. He patiently explained:
"Chief Ben, please don't be so modest. Your strength is well known to everyone in the True Demon Realm, like the dazzling sun, shining brightly. You once single-handedly entered a perilous place like the Demon Abyss and emerged unscathed. This is not something that many people can achieve. The Demon Emperor chose you after careful consideration. He saw in you your endless potential and fearless courage. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. If you can become the leader, you and the Dream Demon Clan will be shrouded in glory, and your name will become a legend, passed down through generations to come."
As he spoke, a look of longing emerged on Li Ming's face, as if he had already seen the glorious scene.
Benboba scratched his head, frowning even more tightly. A conflicted look appeared on his face, and his eyes kept blinking, as if he was weighing the pros and cons.
"Glory is great, but this... this is damn dangerous. It's like asking me to walk through the gates of hell. I could lose my life if I'm not careful. How do you think this competition will work? It can't just be everyone sitting together drinking tea and chatting, and then voting, right? If that's the case, I'd consider it."
Li Ming picked up the teacup on the table, blew gently on the tea leaves floating on it, took a sip, felt the mellow tea fragrance spread in his mouth, then slowly put down the teacup and said:
"The rules are simple and straightforward. A free-for-all battle will be held within the Demon Emperor City. Whoever defeats all opponents and emerges victorious will have the final say in leadership. You are also familiar with the nature of our demon race. We are born to be brave and aggressive. In our world, only strength speaks, and only the power of fists can convince everyone and make those arrogant Demon Emperors willingly obey your commands."
"What the hell, a fight in the Demon King's Castle?"
Benboba suddenly jumped up from his seat and paced back and forth quickly in the room, rubbing his hands constantly, with a worried look on his face and a hint of fear in his eyes.
