The Divine Continent reveals its full glory as its barrier dissipates, impressing visitors with its perfect harmony and grandeur. Representatives from various worlds arrive at a banquet hosted by Xu Zimei in the unique Other Shore Sea Valley, a place steeped in both beauty and a history of brutal conflict. Xu Zimei welcomes them, expressing the Divine Continent's desire to join the Cosmic Realms.

"The reason I invited all of you here is also because I hope you can serve as witnesses."

"From today onward, the Third Star System will have a place for my Divine Continent."

"All resources will be redistributed."

"Of course, we also hope to establish Will of the World Bridges with other worlds."

As Xu Zimei's voice fell, the scene fell into a brief silence.

After all, Xu Zimei was concise and to the point.

He didn't waste a single word.

He came up and laid down two points.

Redistribution of interests.

And the construction of Will of the World Bridges, so the Divine Continent's influence can radiate to even farther places.

This meant that once interests were redistributed, Xu Zimei would not acknowledge the previous mode of profit distribution in the Extreme East.

Just like this time with the Elken Basin Cosmic Mine, everyone had tacitly agreed it belonged to the Demonic Spirit World.

But Xu Zimei insisted on seizing it.

And he would not listen to anyone's opinion, nor look at anyone's face.

Because the Divine Continent had risen abruptly.

The others were all vested interests; how could they possibly stand on his side?

Take the six large worlds as an example.

Previously the cake was divided into six portions; now it had to be split into seven.

Who would be willing to accept that?

The resources the Divine Continent gained would definitely be stripped from them.

Everyone looked at each other.

Off to the side, Madman Mang gave a light cough.

That cough was like a signal; someone immediately stood out.

"My lord, we respect you, and of course we also welcome the arrival of the Divine Continent."

"But you show up and immediately want to change the rules. Isn't this a bit too overbearing?"

"The rules of the Third Star System, especially in the Extreme East, have been gradually evolving over millions of years."

"Some things we can discuss and cede to you, but you cannot seize and occupy them by force."

The speaker wore a red robe, his red hair standing straight up, like blazing flames rising to the sky.

His face was long and narrow, and his eyes were a deep crimson.

On his body—especially his exposed arms—fiery markings flickered.

[Long-Eared Flame Tribe of the Tianzhu World]

The Tianzhu World was a medium-sized world.

However, their world had no absolute overlord.

As mentioned before, current medium and small worlds generally only had two patterns.

One was independent development.

The other was to seek refuge under a large world and become its vassal.

And the Tianzhu World was currently in this stage.

Within the Tianzhu World, two great forces jointly controlled the place.

One was the Long-Eared Flame Tribe.

They had thrown themselves under Madman Star and thus received long-term development.

The other was the Fixed Light Ice Tribe.

They belonged to the independent type of race.

They had not taken refuge with any force.

But in recent years, with funding from Madman Star, the Long-Eared Flame Tribe had grown stronger and stronger, firmly suppressing the Fixed Light Ice Tribe.

Yet the Fixed Light Ice Tribe was tough enough that they could never be wiped out.

So in the current Tianzhu World, the two tribes competed side by side, yet no absolute overlord had formed.

The man speaking at this moment was the Great Young Master of the Long-Eared Flame Tribe.

He was the son of the Long-Eared Flame Tribe's Clan Leader and was publicly acknowledged as the candidate for the next Clan Leader.

His name was Song Chen.

The fact that Song Chen dared to step out and say all this left everyone a bit surprised.

But thinking it through, Song Chen was backed by a force sponsored by Madman Star.

There was definitely Madman Star's shadow behind him.

So this was not surprising.

As Song Chen's voice fell, Xu Zimei's gaze landed on him.

In an instant, Song Chen felt as if he had become the enemy of the entire world, all the oppressive force of heaven and earth converging onto him.

He didn't even have time to react; his legs went soft and he collapsed to the ground.

In that instant, cold sweat poured from Song Chen's forehead like rain, constantly dripping.

His body felt as if it no longer belonged to him, and his heart was filled with incomparable humiliation.

At this point, even Madman Mang could no longer stand it.

He immediately stepped forward and shouted, "My lord, you are being far too overbearing.

Are you planning to kill him in front of all of us?"

"He merely questioned you a little. Do you mean to say you won't even allow the slightest doubt?"

One had to know that Xu Zimei was not just slapping Song Chen's face, but the face of Madman Star as well.

"Everyone, it seems you've misunderstood one thing."

Xu Zimei's gaze swept across everyone's faces.

He took in all their expressions.

"I carved my way up from a small world to where I stand today. What do you think I relied on?"

"Compassion, cowardice, or clinging to life at all costs?"

Xu Zimei's voice rang with a steel-like Clang, carrying an indisputable dominance.

"You are all wrong. I follow only one principle: the winner is king, the loser is prey. Those who follow me will prosper; those who oppose me will die."

"Cut him down!"

As Xu Zimei's words fell.

The nearby Demon Race, who had long been waiting, began to move.

This Demon Race member was one of the four great protectors—the Giant Demon.

Its body was enormous, like a mass of black mist dropping from the sky, its fist smashing straight toward Song Chen.

Song Chen's expression changed drastically.

He couldn't care about anything else; he hastily shifted his body, dodging to the side.

With a booming explosion.

A bottomless pit was blasted open beneath Other Shore Flower Valley.

The power of that punch was evident.

"What are you trying to do? Just because I questioned you, you'll kill me?"

Song Chen's eyelids twitched wildly.

He tried to incite the others.

While dodging and fleeing, he shouted loudly, "Everyone, we came here at his invitation.

No matter what, we shouldn't be treated like this."

"If he dares to kill us now, he'll dare to kill you later."

Hearing this, everyone present exchanged glances.

But in the end, they all turned their eyes toward the few large worlds.

Because no matter what they thought, the final decision still depended on those large worlds.

After all, only they were qualified to confront the Divine Continent head-on.

Madman Mang was the first to state his position.

He said coolly, "If the Divine Continent insists on acting like this, then my Madman Star will be the first to refuse."

"We will not yield our interests, nor will we build any Will of the World Bridges with you. At worst, we'll just have another world war."

In fact, there had already been conflict between Xu Zimei and Madman Star before.

Madman Mang's purpose in coming this time was to muddy the waters.

To incite more worlds to resist the Divine Continent together.

Hearing Madman Mang's words, Hundred Souls Daoist of the True Void World smiled.

He said, "We all have to deal with each other more in the future; there's no need to make things rigid.

As for me, I welcome the Divine Continent."

The reason Hundred Souls Daoist said this was because the True Void World was the farthest from the Divine Continent.

The conflict of interests between the two worlds was minimal.

So he could afford to relax.

If Madman Star and the Divine Continent broke into open conflict, they could sit back and reap the fisherman's profit.

That would, in fact, be the best outcome.
