Chapter 37

C37 – Invitation

“Hello, I represent Blade Martial House. I’ve watched your videos, and your mastery of the Saber technique is truly impressive; you’ve even reached the level of a Master.”

“The individual our Blade Martial House seeks is a Saber Dao prodigy. Given your exceptional talent, you stand an excellent chance of becoming our pavilion master’s disciple.”

At that moment, a middle-aged man in cultivation attire was the first to rise and address Loong Chen.

“Blade Martial House?”

Loong Chen was momentarily taken aback. In the past, he hadn’t been an Evolver, so he had limited knowledge of these renowned powers.

“Young friend, Blade Martial House holds the thirty-eighth position among the world’s superpowers.”

Sensing Loong Chen’s discomfort, Zhang Qibing rushed over and discreetly clarified.

“They’re here to recruit the top one hundred individuals from the world’s superpowers. Blade Martial House might not be the most distinguished, but it’s undoubtedly the finest choice for those skilled in the Saber Art.”

“Naturally, this is my personal viewpoint. Ultimately, the decision rests with you.”

Zhang Qibing said.

“I represent the Evolver Alliance’s headquarters. The local branch under Zhang Qibing might not fully appreciate a talent like yours, but our headquarters should certainly have the resources and recognition you deserve.”

Another middle-aged gentleman rose from his seat. Even without Zhang Qibing’s introduction, Loong Chen discerned him as the Evolver Alliance’s representative.

“I speak on behalf of the Qianjin Chamber of Commerce. While we may lack many things, resources are not among them. Joining our Chamber of Commerce would ensure you receive the finest provisions and support.”

A charming young woman, donning a qipao, spoke with a pleasant smile.

The Qianjin Chamber of Commerce was renowned for its vast wealth, with a global presence that arguably made it the foremost chamber of commerce.

When it came to wealth, few powers could rival the Qianjin Chamber of Commerce.

Those seated individuals all rose and introduced their respective affiliations.

They even engaged in heated discussions, resembling a group of uncles and aunties haggling over prices at a market. Their faces flushed with excitement.

They vied for Loong Chen’s allegiance with exceedingly generous offers, demonstrating the high regard in which they held him.

This was expected. Loong Chen, at such a young age, had effortlessly defeated a Level 3 Mid Rank Evolver. His remarkable talent was evident.

Nevertheless, the most compelling factor was his mastery of a domain ability. This was the true reason these world-class superpowers coveted him.

While sixteen-year-old Level 3 Evolvers were not unheard of, they did not typically warrant such fervent attention from these global superpowers.

The Dragon God Temple, without a doubt, stood as the paramount force in this world.

Even the Starlight Sect was much weaker than it.

The leader of the Dragon God Temple held the title of the Invincible Dragon God. He had emerged at the onset of the apocalypse and had survived for over five centuries.

Throughout those five centuries, he had never faced defeat, establishing himself as the mightiest human on Earth.

It could be argued that he was no longer a mere human. True to his moniker, he had evolved into a deity-like force.

The representative of the Starlight Sect visibly paled. He had just declared that no one in the assembly dared to challenge him, and now he found himself in an awkward position.

The members of the Dragon God Temple had compounded his discomfort. He couldn’t muster a counterargument and could only manage a bitter laugh.

Given the choice between the preeminent Dragon God Temple and the top ten Starlight Sect, everyone would undoubtedly opt for the former.

“I am Dugu Lengyue, the envoy from the Dragon God Temple. Would you consider joining our ranks?”

Her voice remained devoid of emotion.

Loong Chen even felt it was as detached as an automated system’s voice.

After extending the invitation, representatives from various influential factions displayed expressions of disappointment. Their hopes were dashed.

“What advantages come with membership in the Dragon God Temple?”

Nevertheless, Loong Chen did not immediately accept but instead inquired.

His audacity surprised onlookers. Faced with the Dragon God Temple’s recruitment, many were nervous, and yet this individual dared to negotiate.

“The Dragon God Temple has attracted a multitude of the world’s prodigies. I cannot guarantee you the spotlight, so I cannot make any promises.”

Dugu Lengyue said.

Unlike the other major powers, she didn’t propose any extravagant terms. In fact, she even suggested that Loong Chen might not be the one drawing the most attention.

How could a prodigy like him accept such a slight? Nonetheless, Loong Chen simply smiled.

Dugu Lengyue’s initial statement had piqued his interest.

If the Dragon God Temple attracted numerous formidable individuals, wouldn’t that mean more opportunities to acquire attributes?

Meeting the fabled Invincible Dragon God, wouldn’t that present an opportunity to gain attributes from such a legendary figure?

The attributes bestowed by such an expert would undeniably significantly enhance Loong Chen’s power!
