When they returned to Darkstrip City, the entire city was focused on the Star-Eye Clan's spacecraft. They knew it carried this session's Novice number one.
Before this aircraft even arrived, the reward items Ye Zhongming had selected began to be delivered successively to the Star-Eye Clan's underground palace. One after another, aircraft landed at the entrance. Many Bronze Warriors of the Star-Eye Clan were dispatched to move things into the underground palace. The scene attracted onlookers from other races in Darkstrip City.
As for spatial equipnt, that stuff costs money, too. Even if not rare, it's not sothing found everywhere on the streets. Especially high-capacity ones; their numbers are few, controlled by major races. How could they be used to transport things for the Star-Eye Clan? So... they had to move it themselves.
Fortunately, items worth several hundred thousand points were indeed not few, but also not too many. Moreover, they didn't all arrive at once, so this scene only lasted a short while.
The people of Darkstrip City were all discussing that, apart from the Common Language of the cosmic races being nad Darkstrip Language, probably only this ti—the Star-Eye Clan obtaining the double first place in the Novice battlefield with an unprecedented high score—would be recorded in history.
There was no other way. On this survivor fortress, Darkstrip City wasn't considered a major city, and there were no super major races inside. There were too few honors they could boast about.
Of course, many lives were also scornful of this, believing it was just the Star-Eye Clan's final flicker of life. They would persist a bit longer, but would still be eliminated eventually.
But that jealousy remained in their hearts.
They just didn't know that from this mont on, this jealousy would never disappear from their lives.
…………………………………………
The Bronze Mask Warrior camp was commonly referred to as the Bronze Camp.
Ever since the 101st generation Bronze Order Leader led the rebellion, the mbers of the Bronze Camp could only undertake less important tasks. As the Star-Eye Clan declined, many of them were even left idle due to the reduction in mission volu. Even though the number of warriors in the Bronze Camp had also significantly decreased.
Now, apart from tasks like guarding, reception, or even maintenance, the warriors of the Bronze Camp mostly just trained.
Performing well, increasing strength, and being selected by the Silver Team had beco their only way out.
But the usually bustling training ground was unusually quiet today. Almost all the Bronze Mask Warriors in the camp had returned to their dormitories, while so managers and squad leaders chose a room to discuss matters.
"Just ca out of the Novice battlefield and imdiately beca the Bronze Order Leader? This is too... to put it bluntly, too disrespectful to us! It cannot be denied that this guy, called Ye Zhongming, is outstanding. He achieved the highest score in history, beca the Novice number one, and also made our Star-Eye Clan the overall score first, giving us a mont of pride. But how strong can his current strength be? Among the nearly ten thousand people in our camp, can he rank in the top five thousand? Fine, even if he made contributions and the clan wants to reward him, and no other position but the Bronze Order Leader can show sincerity, they should still consider the facts, right? Even if they treat him as a seed for focused cultivation, they could let him take over after his strength ets the standard!"
One person voiced his full of complaints to the several dozen key mbers of the Bronze Camp around him. He was a Thousand-Person Commander and could be regarded as one of the more influential people in the camp.
He was wearing a mask at the mont, but if Ye Zhongming were here, he would definitely recognize him as the Bronze Mask Warrior who casually killed soone when receiving them to the Star-Eye Clan.
His na was Leng Jiao.
He knew he probably wouldn't leave a good impression on Ye Zhongming, so his opposition to Ye Zhongming was very firm. At the sa ti, he wasn't without so desire to aim for a deputy position in the Bronze Camp.
Leng Jiao knew he wasn't cut out for the Bronze Order Leader position; whether in terms of strength or connections, it wouldn't be his turn. But for the two deputy positions, he felt he could compete.
A few others with similar thoughts echoed his words. Still, they didn't share the sa ambitions, but also didn't think the clan's decision was very mature, and expressed support.
"Also, although he achieved extraordinary success and will definitely leave a mark in history, I think his judgnt is poor, and his heart isn't with our Star-Eye Clan."
Hearing Leng Jiao say this, many who hadn't expressed an opinion also looked at him.
His heart isn't with the Star-Eye Clan? This was a very serious accusation.
The people here were all mbers of the Star-Eye Clan. They bore the distinct label of the Star-Eye Clan and were to share glory and disgrace, survive and die together with the Star-Eye Clan.
Why many squad leaders and managers didn't have much resistance to Ye Zhongming taking the Bronze Order Leader position was precisely because Ye Zhongming had brought honor to the Star-Eye Clan, making the Star-Eye Clan's na reappear in the sight of the cosmic races in the universe.
Even in their hearts, they sowhat approved. They hoped Ye Zhongming could bring sothing different to the Star-Eye Clan.
But hearing this sentence, they also beca uneasy.
"You can't say that without proof."
Among those inclined towards Ye Zhongming succeeding as Bronze Order Leader, a sowhat overweight person frowned and said.
"Of course, I have a basis." Leng Jiao sneered. "Did you see the rewards he selected this ti? What are those things? What use are they to us? In my opinion, he wasted at least over a hundred thousand points! True, these are indeed his own points, but don't forget, for his sake, Order Leader White Robe personally went down to the Novice battlefield and even brought Jie Su, who is probably our Star-Eye Clan's only friend. If the future successor of Sheke Star hadn't followed them down, what first place would there be? They would have all died up there! If Ye Zhongming had a conscience, shouldn't he share so of these points with the clan? But he didn't. Instead, he chose these things—research stuff, farming stuff—probably under the pretext of giving them to the clan, trying to repay the clan's favor this way. Does our clan need this junk? No! Tell , if his heart were with the clan, would he do this?"
Everyone fell sowhat silent. This reason sounded a bit far-fetched and completely speculative, but it wasn't without rit. Any normal person, knowing the Star-Eye Clan's situation, wouldn't choose those things.
"Also, don't forget, the Changxu Water Race people are with him."
Leng Jiao added another sentence.
Everyone didn't react at first, but slowly began to grasp the implication.
The Changxu Water Race's situation was worse than the Star-Eye Clan's, but that was based on their unwillingness to lose independence. Once they were willing to compromise, they would beco targets of contention for other races. Even so, many major races like the Huo'er Star people kept a covetous eye on them.
Now, the Changxu Water Race clearly intended to follow Ye Zhongming. Didn't that an offending many major races at once? If Ye Zhongming stayed with the Star-Eye Clan, it would be equivalent to the Star-Eye Clan offending them. Everyone could figure this out, and so could Ye Zhongming. So wasn't he afraid? The outside world wasn't the Novice battlefield, where Furelai was limited to around two thousand, letting him kill everyone after transforming.
Then there was only one explanation: his heart wasn't here. Perhaps he would turn around and throw himself into the embrace of Huo'er Star.
At this, even those originally inclined towards Ye Zhongming began to waver. After a long while, everyone's gaze focused on the person sitting at the very front, one of the Deputy Order Leaders of the Bronze Camp, Ka Lan Ka.
……………………
While the Bronze Camp was stirred because of Ye Zhongming, the King of Cloud Peak arrived at the end of a passage. In front of him was a tal door. Inside, the two Clan Leaders of the Star-Eye Clan were waiting for him.
