Lack of talent? I'll buy a year's worth of cultivation for one dollar!

"How is this possible?!"

Lu Xinghe gasped in shock.

The surrounding old monsters also gasped in shock.

The Domain Lord Law is a martial artist's ultimate understanding of the Great Dao of the Universe!

Once you understand it, it's already imprinted deep in your soul.

Even if one is severely injured, even if one's cultivation level drops, the laws will absolutely not dissipate!

Unless, the person is dead!

The Ninth Prince was still breathing, but he was seriously injured and unconscious!

How could the laws of the domain lord simply vanish into thin air?!

After a brief moment of surprise.

The elders instantly understood!

Their expressions turned strange, and their gazes unconsciously drifted toward the meteorite throne at the highest point.

external force!

The Ninth Prince had not comprehended any Domain Lord Laws at all!

Those one million drops of source blood were not something he cultivated himself!

He relied on external forces!

He is fighting Su Yu with the help of the Domain Lord-level external force bestowed upon him by the Emperor of Great Chu!

If we're talking about the Ninth Prince's own combat strength...

150,000 drops of source blood, plus a thousandfold amplification from a Hengxing-level cultivation technique.

His physical defense is at most equivalent to 150 million drops of source blood.

And what about Su Yu?

Forty-five thousand drops of flawless source blood! Plus the nearly ten-thousand-fold full boost from the "Chaos Limitless Source Blood Technique"!

Su Yu's physical defense is as strong as 450 million drops of source blood!

The difference in their physical bodies is a full three times!

Therefore, under that terrifying backlash of a 50/50 split.

Su Yu was only slightly injured.

The Ninth Prince's physical body simply couldn't withstand that recoil force, and he was directly shaken into a coma with serious injuries!

I've figured that out.

The way the old monsters looked at Su Yu was beyond shock.

That was utterly terrifying!

"This kid..."

"Where did that monster named Su Yu come from?!"

"Even if the Ninth Prince used external force at the Domain Lord level!"

"Even with the blessing of a million source blood!"

"Incredibly, he still managed to defeat them head-on!!!"

The royal family's exclusive VIP seats.

The atmosphere was extremely oppressive.

Emperor Chu Tianjiao of the Great Chu sat regally on the meteorite iron throne.

Looking down at his unconscious son in the sinkhole, and then at Su Yu standing proudly upright.

This supreme being with nine billion units of source blood remained silent for a long time.

Then.

He slowly stood up.

There was no outburst of anger or resentment.

As an emperor who rules over a star field, he possesses absolute magnanimity and composure.

hum-

Chu Tianjiao took a step forward and instantly appeared above the arena.

The oppressive aura of a peak Domain Lord swept across the entire area like a gentle spring breeze, instantly calming all the spatial turbulence and noise.

Billions of viewers fell silent, looking at this celestial overlord with awe.

"Su Yu won this match."

Chu Tianjiao's voice, calm and dignified, resounded throughout the entire Taixu Arena.

He made no attempt to conceal his true intentions, his gaze sweeping calmly across the entire room.

"I do have my own selfish motives."

"In order to let Wudao win first place in this Rising Star Competition, I bestowed upon him a Primal Decree, lending him the power of a Domain Lord."

These words caused an uproar in the room.

Although no one dared to make a loud noise due to the emperor's majesty, countless suppressed gasps and whispers still rang out from the stands.

"My god... the Ninth Prince just used true Domain Lord-level power?!"

"Wait a minute! Doesn't that mean... Su Yu just used his pure physical strength to shatter the Domain Lord's laws?!"

"Hiss—! What kind of interstellar joke is this! A black hole-level being withstood the power of a domain lord and still won?! Just what kind of monstrous monster is this Su Yu?!"

The gazes of countless young prodigies toward Su Yu had completely shifted from awe to looking at some indescribable, terrifying creature.

Listen to the suppressed, horrified sounds from below.

Chu Tianjiao nodded slightly, his tone carrying a hint of imperial composure.

"As a judge and as the ruler of the Great Chu, my actions have been unfair."

"Here, I apologize to everyone, and also to Su Yu."

An emperor at the peak of the Domain Lord level apologized in public!

This magnanimity, on the contrary, won the respect of many people.

Followed by.

Chu Tianjiao's gaze fell on Su Yu below.

In his eyes, there was no attempt to conceal the deep admiration and desire to recruit him.

"Su Yu".

"Your talent and ability have earned my respect."

"As compensation."

Chu Tianjiao waved his hand.

"In addition to the original reward for first place."

"You may choose any complete black hole-level cultivation technique, or even a domain lord-level technique, from the treasury of the Great Chu Imperial Family!"

"Furthermore, I will reward you with an additional two thousand low-grade star stones!"

boom!

Gasps of astonishment rose and fell from the stands.

Choose any cultivation method!

Two thousand Star Stones!

Adding the three thousand given to the first place winner, that's a full five thousand star stones!

With so many resources, Su Yu wouldn't have to worry about finding resources for tens of thousands of years!

Chu Tianjiao looked at Su Yu with a gentle smile on his lips.

"Su Yu, what do you think?"

Edge of the sinkhole.

Su Yu reached out and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth.

A subtle glint flashed in his deep eyes.

What do you think?

Su Yu silently scoffed to himself.

"That old fox, he makes it sound so easy."

"If I hadn't cheated and enhanced my strength to this abnormal level..."

"There's no way we can win this game by even a little bit!!"

"You think you can just send me away with an apology?"

Su Yu raised his head and looked at Chu Tianjiao in mid-air.

He could sense that the emperor genuinely wanted to recruit him.

Since it's recruitment, that means...

There is room for negotiation!

Su Yu took a deep breath, and the expression on his face instantly became extremely weathered and exhausted.

He clutched his chest, his body swaying slightly, as if he might collapse at any moment.

"His Majesty."

Su Yu's voice sounded weak, but his words were exceptionally clear.

"That battle just now was really tough."

"In order to withstand the Ninth Prince's Domain Lord-level attack, my original blood was almost completely burned up, and my foundation was greatly shaken."

"That's the power of a domain lord..."

Su Yu sighed and looked directly at Chu Tianjiao.

"Two thousand star stones..."

"Isn't that a bit too little?"

"Your Majesty, could you please add some more?"

Quiet.

The entire Taixu Arena fell into a deathly silence.

Everyone's eyes widened.

This kid is actually bargaining with the Emperor of Great Chu?!

That's the emperor, after all, with the supreme power to decide life and death with a single word!

midair.

Chu Tianjiao was slightly taken aback.

Looking at Su Yu's "weak" appearance, how could this old fox who had lived for hundreds of thousands of years not see that the kid was just pretending to be pitiful?

Foundation shake-up?

Your body is harder than starlight and meteorite iron, what kind of vibration is that!

but.

Chu Tianjiao was not angry.

Instead, he suddenly tilted his head back and burst into laughter.

"Hahahahaha!"

The laughter was like thunder, shaking the starry sky.

Chu Tianjiao looked at Su Yu, his admiration growing stronger.

I'm not afraid of you being greedy, I'm afraid of you being without desires!

A prodigy with such extraordinary talent, who also knows how to assess situations and dares to ask for resources.

As long as sufficient benefits are provided, it can absolutely become the sharpest knife in the hands of the Great Chu royal family!

Such geniuses must be recruited with great effort!

"good!"

Chu Tianjiao stopped laughing, waved his hand, and exuded unparalleled domineering power.

"Now that you've spoken, how could I possibly be stingy!"

"Add another five thousand star stones!"

"A total of 10,000 Star Stones will be delivered to you immediately after the competition!"

Upon hearing this number, Lu Xinghe nearly fainted in the preparation area.

Ten thousand Star Stones!

That's a system balance of 10,000 meteors!

To what extent can the cultivation technique be developed?

But it's not over yet.

Chu Tianjiao looked at Su Yu and continued to throw out heavy bargaining chips.

"besides!"

"I hereby bestow upon you the title of 'Vanguard General of the Nation' of the Great Chu Royal Family!"

"You don't need to show up every day, you just need to be listed as a staff member."

"Every year, the royal family will provide you with an additional thousand Star Stones!"
