"It’s not like that, it’s just that as it grows stronger, we can feel the steel strength that originally belonged to us weakening continuously. If it becos too powerful, our lives might just disappear," the Iron Man said.
"Alright, but regardless, you are doing the right thing," Long Yi said.
Long Yi was no fool, and ultimately he chose not to directly confront the tetrahedron with two hundred tis the Divine Status. Instead, he marked this place and left, there should be no changes here for a short ti. Long Yi decided to first scout the surrounding area and deal with this place after acquiring sufficient Divine Status.
The departure of Long Yi made the Iron n very happy, as it was one of the rare occasions they managed to stop an outsider’s actions.
As days passed, Long Yi’s actions were quite successful. After all, they chose those tetrahedrons that were unable to move, and only a few among them were troublemakers. Long Yi’s own Divine Status quickly surpassed one hundred sixty tis. Occasionally, Long Yi would also bring out the Great Explorer to initiate a Divine Status resonance and confirm the current changes in Divine Status. The Divine Status representing Ai Lin and Little Zi were also roughly around this number, while the other Divine Status also changed, but not by much.
Soon, the tetrahedrons confird to be sealed away were becoming fewer and fewer, and Long Yi obtained them one by one, either through purchase or conquest.
Finally, they established a relationship with a mysterious organization.
God’s Association.
The na was extrely simple, yet it basically indicated all of its functions.
Everyone here possessed Divine Status, and they would exchange information about the location of new Divine Status discoveries or the location of enemy Divine Status.
Yes, enemy Divine Status.
Besides the God’s Association, there was another organization called the Hand of God. This organization was also made up of people with Divine Status, standing completely opposite to the God’s Association. Although they both searched the universe for Divine Status, they were certain to battle and snatch each other’s Divine Status upon encountering mbers of the other organization.
Upon hearing this, Long Yi was sweating profusely. So, the act of snatching Divine Status has beco industrialized and comrcialized? There are already two associations for this crap! Thank goodness I have cheats; otherwise, by the ti I learned about this, gods would have already been reborn!
At that ti, Long Yi still maintained the appearance of having a single Divine Status. He soon noticed two people with multiple Divine Status following him, just as he wondered if they ant to snatch his Divine Status, he realized they were just recruiting mbers for their association.
God’s Association, specialized in protecting newcors. Simply by contributing a certain amount of Divine Power daily, one could beco a mber and enjoy the care and protection from all mbers of the association!
It was simply divine! With such a business mind, why bother snatching Divine Status? Just be a boss honestly!
However, when Long Yi arrived at the headquarters of the association, he discovered that the president was indeed a boss, and even a big boss with businesses spanning across dozens of planets.
In the center of the association, there was a device made with Divine Power capable of storing Divine Power. Each person, by paying a certain amount of Divine Power monthly, could enjoy mbership services.
Naturally, the most popular of these services was the remote rescue service. Many people, despite possessing Divine Status, found that Divine Status suppression only worked against those with Divine Status, and once their Divine Power was exhausted, they could only rely on their strength. Under normal circumstances, Divine Power wasn’t all that useful.
As a fresh newcor, Long Yi decisively paid a month’s worth of Divine Power and joined as a mber. mbers received a small device also made with Divine Power. Using this device, one could directly call for rescue, of course, the rescue wasn’t free.
When you think about it, this guy really had a business brain!
In this city, Long Yi would occasionally encounter soone with Divine Status. These people looked no different from ordinary persons, and even those with crafty appearances earnestly adhered to the rules. It had to be said that those so-called association people really had ans.
Of course, wherever there were people, there were conflicts, and Long Yi personally witnessed conflicts erupting between two people with Divine Status. However, they did not use any Divine Power but relied solely on their own strength to fight. The winning side did not take away the Divine Status of the losing side.
The feeling was, sohow, strangely peaceful.
Initially, on the radar, this area was a rather bright signal, which Long Yi did not pay much attention to. But now it seed that it was caused by many overlapping signals. Long Yi heard that the number of mbers who joined the God’s Association had already exceeded five hundred, and the mbers of the Hand of God were also around this number, aning the quantity of Divine Status detected by the radar had increased even more.
The city was divided into two parts by the two associations, separated by a street as the boundary. mbers would never set foot in the other’s area because once they did, they would be imdiately surrounded and beaten, killed, and stripped of their Divine Status. After tough negotiations, the leaders of both sides agreed to use a major road running through the city from north to south as a boundary and set an agreent not to cross into each other’s territory.
"So, has it always maintained this balance?" Long Yi asked the guide beside him. This guide was a little girl, also with a single Divine Status. Long Yi hired such a guide with a certain amount of Divine Power to explain everything about the city. However, Long Yi could tell from her deanor and expressions that her age was much greater than what her appearance suggested, and that her Divine Status was definitely more than one.
"Yes, no one wants to recall the scene of the Divine Status war back then," the girl seed to shudder at the mory.
"What happened at that ti?" Long Yi asked.
"More than two hundred people used Divine Power in the battle, the entire planet collapsed three tis, and was forcibly restructured three tis," the girl said.
"That’s truly... terrifying," even Long Yi couldn’t help but exclaim.
"Heh, you must have heard of Long Yi, right?" the girl looked at Long Yi askance.
"I have, the King of the Stellar Realm Arena," Long Yi said.
"Hehe, he’s just a mortal after all," the girl said. "No matter how much he struggles within his plane, he is still just a mortal, and we, who are at this realm, are different from them. The wars between those who possess Divine Status can definitely make him cry."
Is this what they call ’getting shot while lying down’?
Long Yi smiled. He couldn’t exactly jump out now and say, "I am Long Yi, and I’m going to take down all of you," could he?
"However, what I find strange is, doesn’t anyone covet others’ Divine Status and break the rules?" Long Yi asked.
"Yes, but there’s no need to break the rules," the girl said.
"Why not?"
"Because we have the Arena for Divine Status."
This so-called Arena for Divine Status is specifically designed for those who are not content with their own weak Divine Status. You can participate no matter how much Divine Power you have. You are free to decide the amount of Divine Power you bet in the arena and the amount of Divine Power you use during combat. The opponent will also wager the sa multiple of Divine Status, and of course, must use the sa amount of Divine Power to fight. Both parties compete without any suppression of Divine Status.
This is, indeed, a perfect solution.
It also brightened Long Yi’s eyes.
It was as if it was made just for him.
Long Yi reckoned that Ai Lin and Little Zi would soon find this place since their intelligence far exceeded his. They should quickly hear about it and co here. Why not simply wait for them on this planet and then discuss the next plan?
"So, where is the Arena for Divine Status?" Long Yi asked, his eyes practically glowing as he looked at the girl.
At that mont, the girl, who acted as his guide, sneered inwardly, having seen too many newcors like him. In their minds, they only think about how to further enhance their Divine Status. Once they actually face those powerful opponents in the Arena for Divine Status, they will realize how naive they truly are.
But, this wasn’t her concern, as the boss of the association made it very clear. The purpose of their existence is to continuously collect Divine Power from those who possess Divine Status. These fools simply can’t comprehend the wonderful uses of Divine Power!
Why did she know this despite being just a guide? Because the boss of God’s Association was none other than her own brother!
The Arena for Divine Status is located right in the middle of the central square garden of the city. On the boundary line between the God’s Association and Hand of God, it’s a relatively small area. The arena is made of a peculiar substance, said to have been created by the leaders of the two associations using their Divine Power, very strong and difficult to destroy.
When the girl brought Long Yi to this place, there were two people fighting in the arena, but both were already void of Divine Power, having exhausted it completely in their previous clashes. Around the arena, the stands were packed with a crowd of onlookers.
Yes, there were no seats here, and spectators could only stand and watch. But this did not diminish their enthusiasm for the match; on the contrary, they were even more excited than those sitting.
Long Yi looked up at the golden sphere floating above. This sphere was astonishingly made of many tetrahedrons pieced together!
At this mont, the sphere contained ten pieces of Divine Status, aning that each of the contenders had staked five Divine Status. The victor would take all ten pieces of Divine Status, while the loser would forever lose their five—unless they could win them back next ti.
There was a ti when Long Yi thought possessing Divine Status was a remarkable thing, but now it seed that others had long been steps ahead of him.
"How do I participate?" Long Yi was sowhat eager to try.
"Just register over there and then wait for soone to challenge you," the girl said, pointing to a staff mber nearby.
"Great! Thank you!" Long Yi said excitedly as he ran over, while the girl chuckled and turned to leave. In her heart, this newcor was no different from the rest.
As Long Yi approached the staff mber, he was about to speak.
The staff mber handed him a tal plate. On one side were the already registered matches, including upcoming matches and those looking for challengers. Long Yi glanced over it briefly; most of the stakes were not high, around three to five tis the Divine Status, but the Divine Power used for the actual matches was always one ti.
Clearly, Divine Status, as a special power, was sothing everyone was highly cautious about.
Turning the tal plate over, there were only two options:
Your bet for participating:
Your Divine Status for participating:
Without any hesitation, Long Yi selected ’one’ for both options. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welco to vote for it at Qidian (qidian), your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users please visit m.qidian to read.)
