The sword seller, dressed in red, deserves applause for the prankster.

Tap tap tap!

"Moo—!"

A loud moo from a cow shook the surroundings, almost shattering the area.

Then, before anyone could react, the crowd had any idea what was happening.

A red figure quickly appeared before everyone, and with a burst of sword light, it transformed into a colorful array, protecting everyone in the Heavenly Pride Group in the center of the array.

Dressed in red, Chi Miao appeared before the group of prodigies, her eyebrows dancing with smugness: "Oh, such a lively scene, why didn't you invite me?"

As everyone's gaze gradually shifted downwards, they discovered something beneath Chi Miao—it was… a cow?!

"Moo!"

The little parrot on the bull's head puffed out its chest proudly and translated, "He said, 'Your good days are over for bullying my friend so openly!'"

That's... the Great Horned Bull clan?!

As the current overlord of the beast race, the Great Horned Bull naturally holds a very high position among them. But now... the Great Horned Bull actually let Chi Miao sit on its back?!

Seeing this, Feng Mian and the other creatures were almost all stunned.

The young master of the Soul-Devouring Serpent flicked his tongue and sneered, "As expected, you're just a nouveau riche who caught the wave of opportunity and stumbled upon a stroke of luck. You're actually willing to be a human's mount. You've completely disgraced our beast race!"

It flicked its tongue, its words filled with disdain for the Great Horned Bull.

The snake race had dominated the beast race for a long time. If it weren't for the sudden rise of the bull race, they would have almost united with several other slightly weaker overlords to unify the beast race and transform it into a complete snake dynasty.

But it was the rise of the Minotaur tribe, who shouted the slogan "The beastmen will never be slaves, neither slaves to humans nor slaves to beasts," and stood on the opposite side, striving for the harmonious roar of all beasts, that caused countless liberal beastmen to launch a rebellion.

Finally, the Orcs were able to maintain their current peaceful situation with so many kings ruling over the land.

This is why the snake clan harbors extreme resentment towards the bull clan and has tried to harm them countless times.

Although the bull tribe is slow-witted, it is powerful and of excellent quality, so most beast tribes are willing to support it.

That's why the snake clan has never succeeded.

Now that I see Big Horned Bull hanging out with Chi Miao, and even willingly serving as his mount, if the beasts who support the Bull Clan saw this, they would probably laugh their heads off.

"They keep saying that beastmen will never be slaves, yet now they willingly grovel beneath others as mounts. Truly, they are lowly creatures; the servility within them cannot be erased!"

"Noisy."

The instant Chi Miao's voice fell, no one saw her swing her sword, but a scarlet sword light flashed and slashed at the Soul-Devouring Serpent Young Master with lightning speed!

By the time the young master of the Soul-Devouring Serpent reacted, it was too late to dodge. With a hiss, he spurted out the venom stored in his fangs.

"My tail!!"

The red sword light actually severed the Soul-Devouring Serpent's scale-covered tail!

The Soul-Devouring Serpent's total length of fifteen meters was reduced to only ten meters after this cut, and its originally heroic physique was now shattered into a wretched and ugly state!

His vertical pupils glared venomously at Chi Miao: "You dare hurt me?!"

Chi Miao gripped her sword tightly, glancing at him: "So what if I hurt you? If you dare interrupt again, the next strike... will sever your vital point!"

Her voice was relaxed, showing no regard for the Soul-Eating Serpent.

The Soul-Eating Serpent was truly terrified at that moment.

Chi Miao's sword strike just now was definitely not her limit, or it might have been just a casual swing, but that sword strike... could cut off his tail!

The Soul-Devouring Serpent has an extremely powerful body, and its scales are comparable to a level-one defensive formation. Many people want to kill the Soul-Devouring Serpent, but they cannot even break through its scales.

Because of the powerful defense of its scales, the Soul-Devouring Serpent hardly cultivates any life-saving techniques, focusing instead on cultivating its toxicity and power.

Chi Miao was able to easily cut off his tail, which meant... Chi Miao could easily kill him.

The Soul-Eating Serpent retreated, and Niu Niu immediately made faces with its bull face, rolling its eyes, twisting its mouth, and sticking out its tongue:

"Moo moo moo~~"

The bird above quickly translated: "Oh my~ Isn't this our mighty and powerful snake? How come you're scared after just a light chop? I have an inescapable servile nature. Snake, are you born with a black slave's body, and you just like to get beaten up and then admit defeat?~"

These words were extremely damaging, making the Soul-Devouring Serpent so angry that it wanted to sweep them to death with its tail.

But when he swung it, he only managed to spit out a few drops of blood, because his tail was gone!

Even his kind couldn't help but laugh at the sight.

How embarrassing!

"hiss!"

He flicked his tongue in a menacing gesture, and the other creatures quickly put on serious faces.

The Soul-Devouring Serpent turned to Feng Mian: "We agreed on cooperation. Aren't you going to do anything about human affairs?"

They decided to cooperate the first time they met in Tianbei Cave.

The strongest competitors in the Heavenly Sorrow Cave are mainly the Demon Race, the Beast Race, and the Human Race.

Other races are not weak, but rather not a threat.

The demons can do without everything else, except... they want to devour all the humans who enter the Heavenly Sorrow Cave.

Feng Mian chuckled, then clapped her hands and looked at Chi Miao: "As expected of the top genius of humankind in this era, you are truly impressive. But... now it is you who are surrounded. You are the ones in the eye of the storm."

"I hope you understand that your arrival will not change the outcome; it will only hasten the annihilation of humanity."

"Be sensible. Leave behind your right to the Bloodline Temple, and ten humans as our food, and we... will spare the rest of you. How about that?"

She enjoyed the thrill of slowly and thoroughly eliminating her prey; it was one of her few hobbies.

"Pfft."

Chi Miao couldn't help but chuckle, then glanced at the creatures around him: "Are these the rotten fish and shrimp surrounding us?"

"The human race won't monopolize the Bloodline Temple slots; they'll take fifteen. The remaining four will be reserved for the beastmen. And the beastmen... one for the Great Horned Bull and one for the Little Parrot. You can choose any two to get those slots; I don't care what you do. How does this allocation sound?"

With only two spots left, what's the point of playing?!

The moment Chi Miao finished speaking, he aroused public outrage:

"You're going to have to suffer the consequences if you don't listen to reason!!"

Are they leaving two spots for beggars?!

"Stop wasting time talking to them, just kill them!"

Almost simultaneously, all living beings in the surrounding area were about to invade and kill the humans.

"It seems the negotiations have failed."

Chi Miao shook his head with a troubled expression and sighed, "Why bother?"

She turned to look at the members of the Prodigy Group.

"What's so frightening?"

fear?

They've been itching to get started for a while now, it's like they're ready to fight right away!

They never had enough of fighting amongst themselves before, but now... they finally have the chance to really show their skills!

After receiving everyone's feedback, Chi Miao's lips curled up slightly:

"If that's the case, then..."

"kill."
