Global Lords: My Species Can Mutate

Chapter 210: Chapter 209: The Situation About to Change

The dramatic changes in the Primordial Evil Realm did not significantly affect the Primordial Realm.

All the lords excitedly discussed their experiences and gains from this battle on the Battlefield of Ten Thousand Realms.

Messages constantly flew by at a speed almost beyond the scope of human vision in the chat channels.

At this moment.

In the capital of the Great Wilderness Kingdom.

Ji Xinghe, who had hurried back from the Battlefield of Ten Thousand Realms, quickly finished dealing with his matters and summoned his Tier Nine subordinates and Ji Yunshuang for a discussion in the palace.

“Your Majesty, this time on the Battlefield of Ten Thousand Realms, we of the Primordial Realm truly won a great victory; almost all the battlefields returned with triumphant news.”

A Tier Nine Lord said excitedly.

“Indeed, in our Tier Nine battlefield, we also killed many lords from other realms,” another lord quickly added.

“This time, we finally vented our long-held frustrations!”

“Couldn’t agree more!”

Other lords chimed in one after another.

The whole palace became much more lively than usual.

Ji Xinghe sat upon the throne, feeling as refreshed as in spring, with a faint smile on his face.

“Yes, this time we were prepared. We gathered people from the same realm at the first opportunity and didn’t allow people from other realms to take advantage.”

“So did your battlefield encounter go smoothly, Father?”

Ji Yunshuang couldn’t help but ask from the side.

As soon as he said this, the ministers below immediately stopped their discussion and looked over at Ji Xinghe.

Ji Xinghe, in high spirits, did not hold back: “Indeed, this time we successfully killed two Tier Ten opponents, and I just received messages from other Kings; they’ve also more or less killed a couple of Tier Ten. But most importantly, what happened with the Saint Radiance King…”

He paused halfway through his words.

The ministers below heard this, swallowing hard, their faces full of curiosity and anticipation.

Seeing their expressions, Ji Xinghe chuckled: “It is said that this time the Saint Radiance King killed an eleventh-grade lord from the Primordial Evil Realm.”

Boom!

The hearts of the ministers shook, and their eyes widened instantly.

Saint Radiance King.

He killed an eleventh-grade lord?

And from the Primordial Evil Realm!?

This is incredible!

No wonder the King has been overjoyed since his return, with a constant smile on his face.

This truly astonished them.

After all, after reaching Tier Ten, killing a lord of the same level is no easy task, let alone Tier Eleven.

That’s absolutely a major cornerstone-like existence.

No wonder their luck has recovered so quickly this time; it turns out it’s because of this!

In their shock, Ji Yunshuang finally couldn’t help but ask from the side of the throne, “Dad, is what you said true? With the many abilities of an eleventh-grade lord, wouldn’t it be difficult to stop them if they tried to escape?”

As his voice fell, the ministers below looked over again, sharing the same doubt as Ji Yunshuang.

Unexpectedly, Ji Xinghe suddenly gave a light laugh: “No, you are underestimating the Saint Radiance King. Although the Saint Radiance King has a fiery temper, his strength is not something that ordinary eleventh-grade lords can match.”

“Why?”

Ji Yunshuang asked again, which was also the question the ministers had, making them listen even more intently.

Under their gaze, Ji Xinghe took a deep breath and said, “Because… the Saint Radiance King now already possesses nine divine fragments of eleventh grade, and he is only one step away from becoming a Great Emperor!”

“Nine divine fragments!?”

“So many??”

The ministers were completely shocked, even Ji Yunshuang beside the throne, whose eyes trembled intensely, unable to believe it.

They knew very well what nine divine fragments represented.

That means having to kill nine eleventh-grade lords to collect them all!

Those are eleventh-grade lords!

What terrifying power must one possess to achieve that?

Only now did they finally have a clear understanding of the Saint Radiance King’s strength.

Then someone suddenly thought of something and asked, “So, after killing the Primordial Evil Realm lord this time, won’t the Saint Radiance King have ten divine fragments, meeting the condition to become an Emperor?”

Once this was said, everyone was shocked, and their expressions changed slightly.

“That’s right!”

Without letting them think too much, Ji Xinghe’s response came from above.

With his eyes fervent and slightly trembling, he said, “Although it’s still a bit early to say this, with the Saint Radiance King’s ability, it should not be long before he takes that step. At that time, our duchies will certainly undergo significant changes, which is why I called you all here.”

“Do you mean the Saint Radiance King will choose a successor?”

A Tier Nine Lord immediately realized the key point and couldn’t help but exclaim.

If the Saint Radiance King truly becomes a Great Emperor, he will surely need to nurture an eleventh-grade subordinate to manage affairs for him.

And the most likely candidates are the remaining seven Duke Kings!

After all, many people know that the Saint Radiance King currently has no heirs.

So.

If the King is chosen as the successor, wouldn’t these Tier Nine Lords have the chance to ascend to the Tier Ten throne?

The Tier Nine Lords below were extremely excited, knowing that the Holy Radiance Kingdom currently has three vacant Duke King positions.

Adding the possibility of the King becoming a successor, that’s a total of four positions.

The opportunity is extremely significant.

No wonder the Saint Radiance King hasn’t appointed new Duke Kings; it seems there were considerations behind it.

And so.

With excited hearts, Ji Xinghe and the ministers began discussing various preparations, while also summarizing the situation of each battlefield.

It wasn’t until the afternoon.

The ministers gradually left the palace, rushing back to their respective territories, leaving only Ji Xinghe and his daughter in the palace.

“Alright, now that everything’s settled, it’s time to distribute the battlefield rewards.”

As Ji Xinghe spoke, he opened a duchy management interface.

On it, the kill counts of the lords within the duchy in the Battlefield of Ten Thousand Realms were densely recorded, ranked from level six to level nine, from high to low.

“Dad, hurry and see what rank I got in the sixth-tier this time.”

With no one else around, Ji Yunshuang reverted to her daughterly demeanor and hurriedly leaned over to Ji Xinghe to check the leaderboard together.

“Okay, okay, look at you so anxious. You must have contributed a lot this time, right?”

Ji Xinghe looked at Ji Yunshuang indulgently.

“Of course, I killed over a hundred enemies this time, I should at least be in the top ten.”

Ji Yunshuang proudly raised her head.

With her strength, entering the top ten of the duchy shouldn’t be a problem.

But what she didn’t expect was that Ji Xinghe fell silent, staring at the interface with an uncertain expression.

“Dad, what’s wrong?”

Ji Yunshuang asked puzzled, also looking at the interface.

When she saw the first place on the sixth-tier leaderboard with a kill count as high as six hundred, her expression mirrored Ji Xinghe’s, only more intense.

“How is this possible!”

Ji Yunshuang covered her soft lips with her hand, her beautiful eyes reaching the height of shock.

Her gaze shifted upwards, immediately landing on a name all too familiar.

First place: Lin You [Yellow Sand City] Kill count 605

Second place: Yan Rang [Mo You City] Kill count 122

Third place: Qiu Changsheng [Maple City] Kill count 120

Fourth place: Ji Yunshuang [Feixia City] Kill count 119

…

A whole fivefold difference!

Even the total kill counts from second to fifth didn’t surpass the first place!

And the one who achieved this was someone she knew, Lin You!

Even Ji Xinghe was extremely surprised, staring at the name over and over.

Finally, he confirmed it was indeed the Lin You he knew.

“Good lad, he killed that many, it seems I’ve underestimated him.”

“With his strength, he should have been assigned to one of the top ten battlefields, right? Yet he managed such a kill count?”

Ji Yunshuang had some understanding of the rules of the Battlefield of Ten Thousand Realms, so Lin You’s kill count astonished her to the core.

However, both she and Ji Xinghe didn’t know.

Lin You was indeed assigned to one of the top ten battlefields.

But it was even more than they expected, he was directly assigned to the notorious number one battlefield, known as the death zone, killing top-tier sixth-level geniuses from various realms.

This quality difference was more than just significant.

Nonetheless.

These matters no longer concerned Lin You.

Because he had already advanced to level seven, completely separating himself from low-level sixth-tier battlefields.

While Lin You was in his territory studying new things, a prompt suddenly sounded in his mind.

[Congratulations, your outstanding performance in this Battlefield of Ten Thousand Realms has earned you a King’s reward.]

[Receive 600,000 units of Magic Energy, and six units of Tier Seven Territory Essence, dispatched to your territory resources, please check them yourself.]

“Hmm? The King rewarded me so soon?”

Lin You opened the resources interface in surprise, sure enough, he saw an addition of 600,000 Magic Energy and six units of Tier Seven Territory Essence.

Although not much, they were valuable indeed.

Especially the Tier Seven Territory Essence, which was exceptionally hard to obtain.

Getting six of them at once was truly generous.

Without much thought, he closed the interface, then headed to the teleportation array with two species tokens and an angel-type territorial sacred artifact, teleporting to the main city.

He thought that since it was the end of the Battlefield of Ten Thousand Realms, many lords would probably come to exchange various rare resources, maybe he could find some treasures.

As expected.

Upon arriving at the main city, he was immediately taken aback by the bustling scene around him.

Wherever his eyes reached, lords were coming and going, a picture full of crowds.

Stalls and booths stretched from the edge of the square all the way to the end of the street.

“Come and look! Top-notch treasures freshly obtained from the Battlefield of Ten Thousand Realms, all available here!”

“Buying battlefield treasures in large quantities! Prices are fair! Interested parties come over!”

“Offering a territory building card, willing to swap for other battlefield treasures, come take a look!”

“Don’t pass by, don’t miss out…”

Indeed.

The entire street was bustling with a lively atmosphere, reminiscent of a festive celebration.

Many lords shared Lin You’s idea of treasure hunting, moving between stalls, some engaging in fierce bargaining with stall owners, surrounded by energetic noise.

Lin You casually strolled down the street.

He noticed many lords preferred bartering rather than straightforward Magic Energy purchases, and even if they did support it, the prices were exorbitant.

After wandering for a bit longer, he was finally drawn over by a voice calling out.

“Selling a Plant Type Species Token! Looking to trade for other battlefield treasures! Interested parties come over!”
