Everyone Is A Lord: My Talent Is A Little Too Strong Chapter 2797 1534: The Turbulent Banquet (Part 2)

Observing that Leo Ray displayed no hints of trepidation despite the presence of two half-step Tier 7 powerhouses, both the Stone Giant Clan Chief Lila and the Half-Titan King Hollis II furrowed their brows in slight annoyance.

Although their arrival was recent, Leo Ray’s every movement had been under their watchful gaze since he first entered the Shadow Market.

From the outset, this seemingly unremarkable Human Emperor exhibited extreme assertiveness. It was only when he clashed with Rax and Payton that his genuine capabilities were revealed, preventing them from gaining any upper hand and forcing them into a disadvantageous stalemate.

Now, standing before the immense influence of the Half-Titan and Stone Giant factions, the Human Emperor still chose to confront them directly—a fact that undeniably defied their expectations.

"One must admit, this Human Emperor is far more unpredictable than anticipated. Could he truly possess hidden trumps capable of matching six top-tier powerhouses?"

A flicker of scrutiny glinted in Lila’s eyes as she scanned Leo Ray with genuine curiosity.

It is common knowledge that if figures like Loris or Sina were in his shoes, facing even a peak Tier 6 expert would reveal their inferiority; such is the absolute divide that exists between second-tier and third-rate forces.

It is no exaggeration to claim that if their mutual rivalry did not hinder them, either the Stone Giant tribe or the Half-Titans could effortlessly crush any third-rate power.

Nevertheless, the territories held by third-rate forces remain barren, devoid of high-grade magic ore or natural treasures, which left these greater powers entirely uninterested.

For the Human Clan to enter the Outer Region and dare to confront two second-tier authorities with such arrogance is nothing short of a massive farce!

"Perhaps this Human Emperor has already exhausted his options and is merely putting on a bold facade."

With this thought, a hint of cruelty surfaced in Lila’s expression as she narrowed her eyes at Leo Ray.

Regardless, the Human Emperor had failed to show the deference expected of an inferior; as superiors, it was only fitting that the Stone Giant and Half-Titan leaders allow him to face the consequences.

Beside her, Hollis II mirrored this attitude. His clouded, aged eyes burned with ferocity as he focused on Leo Ray, clearly poised to launch an assault at any moment.

Witnessing the volatile standoff between Leo Ray and the two second-tier leaders, Administrator I felt cold perspiration drench his back.

He understood full well that if any tragedy befell Leo Ray’s group on these grounds, his own fate would be sealed, especially with four other administrators observing from the shadows!

"Hehe, esteemed guests, I ask that you maintain your composure. This is, after all, a Banquet Hall, and space is quite limited. Should you decide to fully unleash your strength here, I fear it would wreak havoc upon my humble Shadow Market."

After a moment of careful thought, Administrator I decided to intervene with a polite smile: "The lands outside the city walls are different; they are vast and barren, perfect for such displays."

As these words were spoken, both factions registered a slight frown, for the implication was plain: resolve the conflict elsewhere, but not here.

"Rest assured, Your Excellency, we know our boundaries."

Hollis II nodded at the administrator before glancing dismissively at Leo Ray. "Besides, dealing with such insignificant ants would hardly require much effort."

"Precisely. Does Your Excellency truly doubt our command over our own power?"

Lila smiled with graceful composure, appearing completely unshaken.

"Hehe, Clan Leader, that is not the intention."

Seeing that neither party was backing down, more beads of sweat gathered on Administrator I's brow, knowing that Leo Ray’s potential defeat would spell his own ruin.

Running out of options, the administrator had a sudden epiphany and attempted to shift the conversation: "By the way, since the Clan Leader and the Half-Titan Majesty invited the Human Majesty and his group, surely there is a matter of importance to discuss? Why not begin there?"

"Indeed, you didn't go through the ordeal of sending invitations just to engage in posturing, did you?"

Loris took the opportunity to step forward and voice her agreement.

"Speak your piece. Why persist with these condescending airs?"

Sina added, her brow furrowed in impatience.

Following their lead, other powerful figures began to chime in, slowly gathering closer together.

It wasn't just Administrator I trembling in fear; the warriors of the three alliances felt the mounting pressure, given the overwhelming strength of their opponents and their own lingering doubts regarding Leo Ray’s true level of preparation.

Though Leo Ray’s recent conduct had ignited their admiration, many among them harbored secret fears that their leader was merely bluffing.

"Originally, I intended to wait, but since Your Excellency insists, perhaps changing the order of business is acceptable."

Lila exchanged a meaningful look with Hollis II before sweeping her gaze across Leo Ray, Loris, and Sina, her eyebrows arching slightly: "Honored guests, surely you are all well-acquainted with the reason for this meeting, aren't you?"

"Is it possible that our unification to eliminate the Witch Demon has left you feeling rattled?"
