#2046 - Three hundred and one, Wanlong!
#2046 - Three hundred and one, Wanlong!
The guard beside him said, "Lord Qin Emperor, you can summon me at any time if you need anything."
Qin Yi nodded.
Entering the courtyard where he resided, he looked at the surrounding courtyards.
Some shone with a faint light, while others were still in a dim state.
This indicated that there were still others who had not arrived.
The next day, Qin Yi welcomed his first guest.
"Hello, Lord of the Little Primal Chaos Star Region!"
The visitor's cultivation level could not be discerned, but their most distinctive feature was a faint smile on their face.
Qin Yi looked at the person; there were not many who could know his true identity here.
A thought flashed through his mind, and he looked at the visitor, saying, "Did you invite me here?"
"Indeed, you can call me Wanlong. The region I am in is the Three-Zero-One Region."
Hearing the other party introduce themselves, he instantly understood why this meeting could be convened.
The Three-Zero-One Region was already close to the ceiling of existence within the heavens and stars.
"Could you explain in detail the theme of this meeting?"
Wanlong said, "What we want to do this time is actually very simple, and that is to exterminate all the Chaos Gods in the entire Third Star Ring."
After hearing these words, it would be a lie for Qin Yi to say he wasn't surprised.
Exterminating all the Chaos Gods in the Third Star Ring was definitely not a small project.
Qin Yi said, "What use is there in inviting me to such a thing?"
This was not Qin Yi being unduly humble, but rather the current strength of the Little Primal Chaos Star Region was struggling to dominate even the Fifth Star Ring.
Let alone participate in this Third Star Ring plan.
From the moment he entered this place, the guards, whose cultivation was at least at the First-Rank Celestial Venerable level, had been subtly conveying a message that the Third Star Ring's power and foundation were very strong.
Wanlong smiled and said, "This matter will take a long time, and our meeting won't be resolved in just one session. We need to balance the forces of many factions in between."
"You still have a long time to grow, and I believe that this time is enough for you to participate in it."
Qin Yi said, "You seem to know me very well!"
Wanlong said, "I have been paying attention to you since your Little Primal Chaos Star Region occupied the Ninth Star Ring."
"Being able to become the overlord of each star ring is extraordinary."
"Especially when I saw you advance all the way from the Ninth Star Ring to the Fifth Star Ring in a short period, I was even more shocked."
"Don't misunderstand, I don't want to explore the origins of your path..."
In the world of cultivators, talking about someone's past in such detail would definitely cause misunderstandings.
Wanlong added this sentence to avoid any misunderstandings.
After pondering for a moment, Qin Yi said, "If I can participate in it, that would naturally be good."
He did not refuse, nor did he feel any resistance in his heart.
As the Lord of the Heavenly Court in the Era of the Heavens, a broad mind and overall perspective were very important.
Wanlong said, "There are a total of ninety-nine forces participating in this event, and we will make a ranking."
"Don't worry too much. I have considered privacy in this ranking. You can only see your current ranking and cannot see the names of the forces in front of or behind you."
Qin Yi said, "If I'm not mistaken, the Little Primal Chaos Star Region is currently at the bottom, right?"
Wanlong said, "Indeed, the force ranked ahead of you is a First-Rank Celestial Emperor."
Qin Yi: "......"
It would have been better if he hadn't been told this news.
His current limit of combat power was only at the Second-Rank Celestial Venerable level, and there were many great realms between him and a First-Rank Celestial Emperor!
He estimated that he would be at the bottom for a long time in the future.
He wondered how long this meeting would last and whether it would end before his ranking improved.
Perhaps seeing through Qin Yi's thoughts, Wanlong said, "This ranking will continue until the end of our current operation."
"In other words, until we completely destroy the Chaos Gods of the Third Star Ring!"
Qin Yi said, "The purpose of this ranking you created is probably not just to look at each other's strength, right?"
Wanlong said, "Fellow Daoist Qin is indeed intelligent. If the ninety-nine forces were to argue, it would take too long."
"This is related to the issue of the right to speak. The lower the ranking, the smaller the right to speak..."
"So, if you want to gain the right to speak, you must constantly improve your ranking. Only in this way can your force obtain the greatest benefit in this operation."
Qin Yi said, "Wouldn't this be very unfair to the forces with lower rankings?"
This concern was not unfounded.
If things were done this way, those with lower rankings would only be used as pawns.
Wanlong said, "I have considered this point, so there is also a rule that the lower the ranking, the higher the degree of freedom."
"Restraints and rights are complementary. The greater the rights, the greater the restraints, and the smaller the rights, the smaller the restraints."
"Having great rights to speak means that you can obtain benefits for yourself under the consensus of everyone."
"But having little right to speak means that you can agree to this consensus, or you can choose to stay out of it."
Hearing this, Qin Yi couldn't help but take a higher look at Wanlong.
What the other party said was crucial.
To put it more directly, the greater the right to speak, the more benefits there were, and the more restraints there were.
Those who didn't have much right to speak didn't need to abide by any agreements because they didn't get any benefits.
Wanlong said, "The meeting will be convened in half a month, and someone will come to invite you then."
After chatting for a few words, Wanlong left.
He still had many things to do. As the convener of this meeting, there were still many confused leaders of forces waiting for him to meet.
After Wanlong left, Qin Yi welcomed another guest.
"Hello, Qin Emperor, my name is Bogu."
Qin Yi looked at this short dwarf with a very leisurely demeanor and immediately said, "Are you from the Potter race?"
He knew the Potter race very well. There was currently a branch of the Potter race in the Little Thousand World.
They had indeed provided great help to his forces.
For logistic races like this, as long as they were used properly, they could actually play a significant role.
Bogu said in some surprise, "I didn't expect the Qin Emperor to know our Potter race."
There were not many branches of the Potter race in the heavens and stars.
The main reason was that they were not good at fighting, and their inherent value was very high.
Over the years, they had been constantly exploited by the Chaos Gods, and the number of their race had gradually declined...
Qin Yi said, "Of course."
Bogu said, "The equipment made by our Potter race is very good, right?"
Qin Yi said, "Indeed, it is very good."
Bogu said, "Alas~ That's how combat races that are not good at fighting are. Once they show their value, they will be exploited."
Seeing that Bogu had misunderstood, Qin Yi said, "I have not exploited your Potter race."
Bogu said, "From the tone of your voice, you know our Potter race so well, how could you not have exploited our clansmen."
