As Lothur left his vehicle and his guests approached where he had parked, the establishment employees were somewhat nervous.
Lothur had struck one of them only a few minutes ago and made that person faint in the middle of that hall.
They had been shocked at one of them being attacked so brutally by that man, but since that group of cultivators was around, they had all remained silent. They remained in their places, fearful but not crazy enough to show any sign of displeasure to people so much stronger than they were.
When Lothur acted, he ran so fast that none of these people could see him moving. To them, in an instant, the silver-haired young man had gotten angry with one of them, grabbed a weapon, and the next moment was already striking the back of that man's head.
With such monstrous speed, how could any of these mortals stand against Lothur?
As such, after all the cultivators in that hall had left to follow Lothur's demonstration, these people began to put out their feelings.
"How could this have happened?" One of the women said this while having her hands over her mouth.
"Did he kill this person?"
"No, he is still breathing. But I'm afraid his injury is serious..." An old man said as he tried to analyze the situation of that poor fellow.
"By the way, who is that? I didn't know there was someone new..."
"Hmm, it seems Elias had some problems and couldn't come today..."
Some less sensitive ones started talking about the more rational points, while others tried to rescue that man's life.
"What do we do? That person committed a crime by attacking one of us like that."
Another person said. "But if we get that person out of here, we can do something against that Lothur's will..."
"Damn it!"
"What are you guys talking about? There's nothing for us to get involved in. Leave that man and inform the boss what happened. As for the rest, that's not our problem!" The head guard of this place said this to these people flirting with danger.
On second thought, the people there sighed, some wishing the man good health to overcome the situation Lothur had put him in. But they did not like to risk their jobs or lives for the sake of strangers, so even the most sensitive of them abandoned that spy after a while.
However, one of them did not fail to leave from there to notify their superiors about what Lothur had done!
...
Meanwhile, Lothur and his guests were outside that hall, where none of that workers could be without his permission.
Lothur had demanded that all employees working at the hippodrome today wear earplugs not to hear the content of his conversations. So apart from that spy, everyone was wearing those items earlier, so they had no idea why Lothur suddenly attacked the enemy.
They also did not know the content of the conversations of Lothur and his guests, much less the idea of how the kart worked.
Without this information, those people could only leak things about something strange moving, which was not enough to worry Lothur.
Anyway, while he was reassured about these workers and the spy from earlier, Lothur had just seen the last of his guests stop beside him on that dirt track.
"You want to test it?" He asked for everyone there to hear him.
As his words finished coming out of his mouth, Lothur saw each person expressing interest.
Lothur's project looked like a toy in the eyes of some of these people. But it was something extremely functional that could be fun, as they had already seen him enjoying himself. At the same time, the curiosity to know something new and even test a potentially successful business was not small, and everyone there wanted a little taste of it.
Lothur already knew this and precisely why he had not raced anymore, simply to leave enough energy in the 'battery' of the kart for these people to test such a thing.
He knew he had to win the hearts of these people to get their coins. Hence, there was nothing better for him to do than to give at least one person from each organization there a chance to 'play' a little with his vehicle.
Then they would understand the project better, have a more meaningful connection to the product being developed and understand a little more of its power.
That is, cars were not just a means of transportation but a fun item that could be used for entertainment and touring, with many possibilities.
Some people would simply fall in love with the sensation of controlling one of these, which would lead to the adoration and loyalty of many to specific vehicles.
It was like that on Earth, and Lothur knew it could also be like that in the cultivation world. So he played his role of 'dealer,' letting these people try it the first time for free, only to get hooked and come back to him for the product.
"I want it," Annaliese shouted to Lothur, interested in being the first to try it.
But contrary to what one might expect, Lothur refused her request. "Anna, I'll let you, Viktoria, and Elke test this out later. So, for now, let my guests try this first."
The three women were a little disappointed to hear that since they were all curious about what it felt like to drive that thing. But they understood that Lothur's focus there was not to please them but to sell his business to these people.
Those individuals were satisfied and then looked at each other, silently deciding that the strongest would try first.
In this way, everyone there made room for the Morning Star Academy principal, who, on this occasion, was not hiding his soul cultivation.
Lothur saw no problem with this since Transcendents should have their riches. But, even more, this man was behind the academy, so his situation was not simple.
"Principal, do you need any tips? Or do you remember everything?" Lothur asked as he made room for this man to enter the kart.
That man shook his head negatively and said. "There's no need... But I must say, I am shocked by what you have created. I don't know if it will be as good as you promised, but for now, you seem to be succeeding in beating your predecessors."
"Congratulations."
"Hmm, you're welcome." Lothur smiled before he saw that person sitting in the kart without much difficulty, despite the small space of that vehicle.
Everyone there made an effort to pay attention to this man's movements without getting carried away by the odd appearance of an adult sitting on that thing that looked like a toy.
But since everyone was eager to do the same as the principal, they just focused on following the man's movements without error.
Luis did not have the same skill as Lothur. But he got all the procedures right until he slowly let go of the clutch. After this, he began to drive slowly, unable even to reach half the speed of the silver-haired young man.
After only a minute, Luis no longer looked like the academy principal, and the desire to try such a thing on the people there increased substantially.
