401: Three people and one beast

Because Roberto was too difficult to deal with, Lin Tianwei won this time, but his Arena evaluation was not high, only earning 2.5 million points.

Unexpectedly, Roberto seemed to be a pure powerhouse. After winning, Lin Tianwei did not obtain any Core Code remnants from him.

Lin Tianwei didn't care about this; his collection of Core Code had always been a matter of fate.

However, just as Lin Tianwei was about to proceed with the next Arena match, a voice transcended mountains and rivers, reaching Lin Tianwei's consciousness:

"Great Tiger King, above all, shining with boundless glory,

Pure beyond measure, majestic and grand.

You are the master of heaven and earth,

All things grow and flourish because of You.

You created the world with wisdom,

And nurtured life with love.

Your grace is like spring rain,

Nourishing all things, silently enriching.

You are the source of light,

Dispelling darkness, illuminating the future.

You are the lighthouse of hope,

Guiding all beings towards light.

We devoutly worship,

Grateful for Your blessings and protection.

May Your divine power last forever,

May Your glory endure eternally.

Oh, Great Tiger King, You are the faith of all beings,

Your greatness is ineffable.

We wholeheartedly praise Your holy name,

May You protect us, until eternity."

The familiar tone, the lingering hymn—this was Ouro's heartfelt praise sung to Lin Tianwei.

In the Tiger King Temple, Lin Tianwei's divine statue glowed brilliantly.

The originally dim Power of Faith collector also underwent a miraculous change after gathering a large amount of Power of Faith.

Not only did it no longer accumulate dust, but it also constantly emitted divine light, making believers exclaim that it was indeed a creation of a god.

However, not everyone was fortunate enough to behold a true god's creation. Aside from larger sacrificial events, only Ouro could get close to this divine statue.

Under normal circumstances, Ouro would not dare to contact Lin Tianwei through the divine statue; he would only do so in extremely special situations.

And now, he had something extremely important he wished to discuss with Lin Tianwei.

Facing Ouro's summons, Lin Tianwei usually responded to every request.

After all, Lin Tianwei knew that Ouro would not call him casually.

After setting the matching conditions, Lin Tianwei started the match in an automated state.

This waiting period for a successful match was essentially downtime, which happened to be perfect for handling some matters Lin Tianwei needed to address.

With a thought, Lin Tianwei's consciousness instantly appeared within the divine statue.

With the divine statue as a medium, it became much easier for Lin Tianwei to descend upon Blue Star; he could arrive directly.

Unexpectedly, this time, Ouro was not the only one kneeling before the divine statue.

Behind Ouro stood three people and one beast.

They kept their heads bowed low, their eyes full of piety, yet they dared not show any joy, only continuously expressing their Power of Faith to the void through words.

After one recitation, Ouro found that the divine statue showed no reaction at all, and he immediately became anxious.

The esteemed Great Tiger King had indeed said that important matters could be communicated through the divine statue, but he had not told him what to do if the Great Tiger King did not respond.

Fortunately, Ouro's worries soon vanished.

Because a familiar pressure had already descended upon the Tiger King Temple, making everyone feel as if they were bathed in spring breeze.

Lin Tianwei's Tigers Might could be said to be a paragon of double standards.

Towards enemies, Tigers Might would suppress them mercilessly.

Towards his own people, Tigers Might would only make them feel a slight pressure, but more often, it felt like being bathed in spring breeze.

However, it was this feeling of being bathed in spring breeze that made Ouro not dare to breathe loudly.

The Great Tiger King was incredibly benevolent and did not like to suppress everything with violence.

But if someone truly didn't know better and tried to disrespect him, then the Great Tiger King wouldn't mind showing them just how sharp his tiger claws were.

After a brief glance at the three people and one beast behind Ouro, Lin Tianwei understood Ouro's main purpose for seeking him.

Because among these three people and one beast, two people and one beast had already reached Planetary-level One strength.

In terms of Blue Star's power levels, this was absolutely a miracle among miracles.

Lin Tianwei had once promised that any creature reaching Planetary-level would receive his personal commendation and be granted the qualification to leave Blue Star, and he naturally wouldn't break his word.

And now was the time to fulfill that promise.

However, Lin Tianwei was not in a hurry and said, "Ouro, what do you need me for?"

Facing Lin Tianwei's inquiry, Ouro, for the 10,086th time, organized his words in his mind and said:

"Respected Great Tiger King, I am here to see You for the three people and one beast behind me."

"After the Law Arena was put into use, as expected, it has been progressing steadily according to the Great Tiger King's vision, and the overall strength of Blue Star has also increased significantly."

"And these three people and one beast are among the best, having made outstanding contributions in terms of strength or other aspects, and were the first to qualify for an audience with the Great Tiger King."

After a pause, Ouro began to introduce them one by one from left to right:

"This is Legisamon, who has long held the top spot in the Law Arena. He was also the first to break through his limits half a year ago, successfully advancing to Planetary-level One, which can be said to have not let down the Great Tiger King's nurturing."

"This is Gu Kai, the second-place holder in the Law Arena, who broke through to Planetary-level One four months ago."

"This is Zhong, the third-place holder in the Law Arena, who broke through to Planetary-level One half a month ago."

"This is Ismail. Although her own strength is not outstanding, she is the most powerful body template designer in the Law Arena."

"All the powerful body templates currently popular in the Law Arena are from her hand. She has considerable experience in creating powerful ferocious beasts and can be considered a unique Talent."

"These four are currently the most promising creatures on Blue Star. Please, Great Tiger King, make Your judgment."

That Legisamon would be first was within Lin Tianwei's expectations; he was inherently extremely strong, a born warrior.

Having also been fortunate enough to receive Lin Tianwei's grace and several powerful Talents, it was natural that he wouldn't fall behind others.

As for the second-place Gu Kai, Lin Tianwei was very unfamiliar with him, having no impression whatsoever.

However, to be able to stand out among countless Blue Star creatures and become a Planetary-level powerhouse, his strength and potential naturally couldn't be weak.

In fact, if Lin Tianwei hadn't given Legisamon a boost, Gu Kai might have been the true number one on Blue Star.

Unexpectedly, the third place in the Law Arena went to a ferocious beast, this one named "Zhong."

This was a gigantic bear-like beast, without fur, only muscles as hard as rock, appearing full of power.

Its entire body was dark green, indicating that "Zhong's" main territory was the forest, and dark green was its best camouflage color.

Sharp claws, crimson eyes, and the pervasive killing aura all indicated that "Zhong" was not to be trifled with.

However, such a powerful ferocious beast was now respectfully kneeling on the ground with its tail tucked between its legs, its eyes full of piety.

Its body was constantly trembling, whether from fear or excitement, making it appear somewhat clumsy yet endearing.

Before Lin Tianwei, even the fiercest beast had only one choice: to tuck its tail and act like a beast.

After a brief thought, Lin Tianwei understood the reason for all this, the reason why humans had topped the Law Arena.

Nothing else, only wisdom.

The Law Arena, which seemingly emphasized physical collisions, actually tested wisdom to an extreme. Slightly foolish creatures might even be unable to defeat creatures weaker than themselves.

Many ferocious beasts, after their Awakening, possessed intelligence comparable to humans, but the habits ingrained in their genes still made them prioritize using their fists to attack.

Only after suffering countless heavy losses would they realize the preciousness of wisdom.

This situation destined ferocious beasts to face difficulties in the Law Arena.

Perhaps only after they had suffered enough losses would they be able to defeat humans and become the overlords of the Law Arena.

As for the last person, her name alone, Ismail, made Lin Tianwei's imagination run wild.

If he remembered correctly, the Research Institute he had once stayed at was the Ismail Institute, and she happened to be a researcher, making it hard for Lin Tianwei not to feel that there was some connection between them.

After pondering for a moment, Lin Tianwei ultimately decided not to delve deeper.

The other party had sincerely submitted to him and was considered his own. Dwelling too much on the past was truly unnecessary.

Moreover, the Ismail Institute, which seemingly caused Lin Tianwei countless hardships, was actually Lin Tianwei's money-making machine.

If he hadn't heavily exploited the Ismail Institute several times, Lin Tianwei truly wouldn't have been able to develop so quickly.

As long as Ismail could demonstrate sufficient value, Lin Tianwei would naturally be willing to treat this former enemy fairly and justly.

With a thought, four terminals appeared out of thin air in front of Lin Tianwei, and he said:

"These are three terminals, terminals that can connect to the cosmic network to obtain information."

"You are very strong now, but only relative to Blue Star."

"In the vast universe, facing true powerhouses, you are not even as good as ants."

"However, your ability to stand before me at least proves your boundless potential and that you are qualified to undergo a higher-level trial."

"I am willing to give you an opportunity, but whether to accept this opportunity, whether to accept a higher-level trial, is still up to you to choose."

"Once the trial fails, a 100% chance of death awaits you."

"Also, let me say, I don't need your strength as much as you imagine."

Young eagles will eventually leave their parents' embrace and spread their wings to fly; being pushed off a cliff is the greatest trial.

Lin Tianwei did not intend to provide them with further assistance.

What he needed were powerhouses who could help him, not parasites who endlessly clung to him and sucked his blood. Naturally, he couldn't always be their babysitter.

Dying in the trial would be fine; at least death is death, and no unexpected situations would arise.

In the universe, sometimes, death is the easiest way to liberation.

After making arrangements for the two people and one beast, Lin Tianwei's tiger eyes looked at Ismail.

The directions for arranging combat Talents and research Talents were naturally completely different.

Thinking of this, Lin Tianwei's tiger eyes looked at the makeshift Law Arena built by Ouro and Barioss.

He wanted to see how many changes the Law Arena had undergone in the past few years.

Unexpectedly, the development of the Law Arena was much faster than Lin Tianwei had imagined.

Although it was a newly born product, it was exceptionally mature and was in no way inferior to the Law Arena created by the Heavensea God-King.

The only thing Lin Tianwei found regrettable was the body templates; those body templates designed by countless talented designers were simply a bit too ordinary.

Vision determines everything.

Without having seen the vast universe, without having seen the myriad Cosmic Beasts living in the universe, the Blue Star researchers' vision was still too limited.

The body templates they designed might be strong, but only in the sense of being strong from the perspective of Blue Star creatures. In the universe, they had many limitations and were simply impractical.

These "excellent" works in Ismail's eyes were worthless in Lin Tianwei's eyes, completely ruining Lin Tianwei's freeloading plan.

But it was still good.

If it was merely a matter of vision and experience, then simply imparting a large amount of knowledge to top researchers like Ismail would suffice; she would definitely be able to design works that would satisfy him.

Thinking this, Lin Tianwei once again took out a terminal and gave it to Ismail, saying:

"Your design is very good, good in the Blue Star sense."

"To have achieved this with limited knowledge, you can be considered quite outstanding."

"However, this is not enough, completely not enough."

"Use the terminal to observe what powerful Cosmic Beasts exist in the universe, broaden your horizons, and then design. I believe you will be able to design even more excellent body templates."

After a moment of contemplation, Lin Tianwei added, "Besides designing body templates, I have another task for you."

"Under circumstances where all resources are available, what are your thoughts on creating a perfect Cosmic Beast?"

"Materialize your ideas and give them to me. I will give you a satisfactory reward based on your design."

Lin Tianwei was not a capitalist; he was never stingy with rewards for his subordinates.

After all, these rewards, which were lifelong pursuits for them, were mere trifles in Lin Tianwei's eyes.

By paying only a small price, he could motivate his subordinates even more; Lin Tianwei felt this was truly a very cost-effective deal.

However, it would be truly difficult for Ismail alone to complete this arduous task. After a moment of thought, Lin Tianwei directly accessed Blue Star's Law Arena.

There was only one thing he needed to do, and that was to improve the quality of the Law Book in Blue Star's Law Arena with his powerful comprehension of Law.

Although collecting the Law comprehension of Blue Star creatures could also improve the quality of the Law Book on its own, this would take an extremely long time and could not be achieved overnight.

In the early stages of Blue Star's Law Arena, Lin Tianwei giving it a boost was a harmless matter.

After all, this was the foundation of the Law Arena.

If the foundation was not solid, the Law Arena would find it difficult to operate normally. (End of this chapter)
