616: Edward's Poisonous Plot
“Heh heh…”
In the Ancestral Castle, after Lord Vickers finished speaking, a light chuckle echoed.
Clearly, all the Blood Clan present did not believe that the participants sent by the Blue Star Human Race in this World Contention would be a match for their own elites.
“Then, we should discuss the rules for this World Contention.”
“Everyone, feel free to speak your minds. Let’s think about how our clan’s elites should appear to crush the Blue Star Human Race, demonstrating our clan’s might!”
Seeing that no one objected to his words, Lord Vickers spoke again.
“Why not go all at once, overwhelm them openly and honorably, and let the Blue Star Human Race know what it means to be utterly insignificant, like a mantis trying to stop a chariot.”
“When they see their own elites annihilated, the expressions on the faces of those old geezers from Blue Star will surely be priceless!”
Lord Alvos sneered.
However.
Just as Lord Alvos’s voice faded, a dissenting voice suddenly rang out in the hall.
“That’s not right!”
“Killing them directly is satisfying, but for the Blue Star Human Race, it’s too easy for them!”
“Hmm?”
Alvos frowned, his gaze turning towards the source of the voice.
“Edward, what brilliant idea do you have?”
He asked with some displeasure.
Edward was a young Blood Clan, handsome in appearance, standing behind Lord Vickers.
Logically, he had no right to speak in the council, as those currently speaking were all Lord-level existences.
But at this moment, although Alvos was somewhat displeased, it was only because someone had refuted his proposal. In his heart, he harbored no other emotions towards Edward.
Nor did he feel any murderous intent for his insubordination.
This was all because Edward was the most outstanding Genius in Blood Clan history.
Princess Manna, whose talent was once hailed as once in a millennium, wasn't even fit to carry Edward’s shoes.
Because Edward, at his true age of only eighteen, had successfully broken through to the Prince rank a few days prior, and was even bestowed a drop of true Blood by the Ancestor.
And it was explicitly stated that Edward had the qualification to advance to Dominator!
Therefore, although Edward’s current strength was only that of a Prince, his status within the Blood Clan was only below that of Alvos and the other six living Lords, and he might even surpass them in the future.
“I believe we should use more brutal and bloody methods to demonstrate our power to the Blue Star Human Race.”
“Since the thousand participants in the World Contention are divided into three strength stages, we should divide our elite forces and deploy them in three stages accordingly.”
“With the strength of our Holy Clan’s elites, crushing Blue Star is no problem. In each stage, we will cruelly slaughter the Blue Star Humans, making them experience despair again and again.”
“Isn’t this more enjoyable than simply sending everyone in at once?”
At this point, Edward chuckled lightly, and under the crimson light, a devilish smile appeared on his handsome face, which carried a hint of Eastern features.
“Good!”
After listening to Edward’s words, Alvos, who had been somewhat displeased, lightly clapped his hands, his expression filled with immense praise.
“As expected of Edward, this proposal of yours is something I hadn’t even thought of before.”
“Making the Blue Star Human Race experience despair repeatedly, witnessing their own kin being ruthlessly slaughtered again and again, and finally suffering defeat.”
“This truly is a Genius proposal!”
He said with an excited tone, then changed the subject, his eyes showing some regret:
“It’s a pity, Edward, that you recently advanced to Prince. Otherwise, with your invincible strength at the Duke stage, you would definitely shine brilliantly in this World Contention!!”
“Indeed.”
Hearing his words, the other Lords beside him also nodded.
During his Duke period, Edward swept through all peers in the Blood Clan, his combat power could be called the first in the Blood Clan’s Duke stage throughout history!
If he hadn’t advanced to Prince, he alone could have swept through all of Blue Star in the World Contention.
“I heard that this time, the young Prodigy of the Blue Star Human Race, Wang Chen, will also participate in the World Contention.”
“He’s gained quite a reputation recently, slaying a 5th Rank at Rank 3, stepping on our Holy Clan to ascend the Ten Thousand Realms Prodigy Ranking, and has some title like ‘Blue Star’s First Prodigy in hundreds of years’!”
“It’s just that Edward is usually low-key, and the Ancestor doesn’t allow him to go to the Myriad Heavens Battlefield, otherwise, what Wang Chen… he’s just trash!”
“Once Edward enters the Myriad Heavens Battlefield, he will surely ascend the Ten Thousand Realms Prodigy Ranking and make a name for himself in the All Heavens and Myriad Realms!”
Lord Vickers of the Brujah Clan said with even more regret.
At this point, hearing his words, Edward shook his head.
“Lord, you are mistaken!”
“That Wang Chen will soon become food for my Holy Clan’s elites in the World Contention. What right does he have to compare himself to me?”
Edward stood tall and proud, a perfectly disdainful look on his face.
After speaking, he didn't even look at the expressions of the Blood Clan Lords, and began to stir his demonic power to resonate with the Blood Clan’s Blood River.
“The discussion is over. Ancestor still needs to impart the Dao to me, so I shall take my leave first.”
As soon as his voice fell, Edward’s figure disappeared from the hall.
Seeing this, all the Blood Clan members showed envy, and the six Lords were no exception.
To be able to see the Ancestor daily, looking across the entire Blood Clan, throughout countless tens of thousands of years, only Edward alone had this qualification!

“I’ll see you off here. Next, you can directly pass through the teleportation gate and arrive at the training Secret Realm.”
“Everyone else has already arrived, and the higher-ups have also arranged for a King to provide guidance. During this period, you should establish good cooperation with the others and ask that King for advice if you don’t understand anything.”
In front of a teleportation gate, Yang Daoming instructed Wang Chen.
Because the rules of the World Contention had not yet been finalized, Blue Star, to cope with various possibilities, gathered a thousand participants in a common world for early drills and increased cooperation, hoping that the participants would have sufficient countermeasures in any situation.
“Thank you for the reminder, Marshal Yang.”
“This junior will take it to heart.”
Wang Chen respectfully bowed to Yang Daoming, while also feeling some anticipation for the upcoming special training.
The participants were all the cream of the crop among Six-Turn, Seven-Turn, and even Eight-Turn cultivators.
Each one, taken individually, possessed the strength to dominate their peers.
This made Wang Chen somewhat impatient, eager to test the strength of these powerhouses.
“It’s good that you understand.”
“I have many duties in the Myriad Heavens Battlefield, so I won’t stay with you much longer.”
“I hope that in a month, you will have gained a lot.”
Yang Daoming smiled and patted Wang Chen’s shoulder, then directly tore space and left.
After he left, Wang Chen handed his credentials to the soldier guarding the teleportation gate.
After confirmation, a dazzling light illuminated the teleportation gate.
Wang Chen stepped into it, and his figure disappeared.
