Chapter 1820: Chapter 1820

When the nearby seven-tier individuals came to congratulate, some of the eight-tier strongmen finally appeared. However, there were not many, just three in total, and one of them was responsible for guiding.

"Indeed, an eight-tier powerhouse has emerged; we bear witness. From today onwards, the Kobold race is elevated to an upper-class race."

That’s right, the appearance of an eight-tier means becoming an upper-class race. The Beastman’s hierarchy has very strict regulations.

A race that hasn’t seen the emergence of seven-tiers is a slave race, as the Kobolds were before. Wherever they went, their status was that of a slave, and without a master, anyone could take them back for use.

Even if someone kills a member of a slave race, they only need to compensate the master with some money. If there’s no master, killing them anywhere won’t be an issue, and no one would blame them.

The vast majority of Beastman races are because their talents are not high, and no seven-tier arises.

When seven-tier individuals appear, they become a lower-class race, the common people in the Beastman world, possessing certain rights. At least, the situation where one can be killed at random won’t be pursued.

Of course, in sparsely populated areas, even if there’s fighting and killing, as long as no one sees it, it’s of no consequence.

The remaining Beastman races, over half are in this situation. Even many have had a seven-tier appear, but later, that seven-tier died, perhaps dead and gone, and yet they are still considered a lower-class race.

This is an agreement that the upper class unanimously passed to give birth to more Beastman strongmen.

When the number of seven-tier strongmen exceeds ten, it’s a middle-class race, and such races are rare. A middle-class race can be regarded as nobility among Beastmen.

The Kobolds were previously in this situation, having revealed more than ten seven-tier individuals.

But now, with the emergence of an eight-tier in the Kobold Empire, things are different. When an eight-tier appears, that race is an upper-class race, not an ordinary race.

If someone arbitrarily harms a member of an upper-class race and is caught, their life is at stake. The civilians of an upper-class race have privileges in the Beastman world. Of course, these privileges are useless on the battlefield.

On the battlefield, all races are equal, and everything depends on strength. If one dies, no one will hold a grudge. After all, anyone who dares step onto the battlefield is prepared to die at any time.

Though the number and strength of eight-tiers vary between races, because there are so few upper-class races, just a few, no one distinguishes between them in rank anymore.

These rankings are a recognition of people’s minds; racially, they are truly equal. However, for the Beastman’s personality, true equality is impossible. Among equally ranked race members, strength becomes the key to evaluating one’s status, with personal strength being the most crucial.

Many races are quite frustrated now that Kobolds are suddenly on equal footing with them.

Some who looked down on Kobolds are even more helpless because Kobolds are now an upper-class race and even surpass them. Who knows how the personalities of Kobolds will change in the future?

If an upper-class race wants to expand its territory, nobody would dare say anything, would they?

"Alright, since you’ve reached eight-tier, you know you can no longer intervene in internal world matters from now on, right?" The visitor said sternly to the Kobold guardian.

This individual wasn’t created by Du You but was naturally conceived after the Mage Tower breakthrough. Since the Mage Tower is Kobold type, the guardian naturally became a Kobold.

Of course, quite a few seven-tier individuals have appeared, but for now, no one has exposed them.

"I understand; I won’t intervene. However, I can develop some elite strength for the Kobolds, right?"

"That’s no problem as long as it helps people increase their strength, which is the most important. You’re not the only one doing this; in fact, anyone with the ability is doing the same."

The surrounding people suddenly understood: "So that’s it; no wonder the Kobolds are developing so fast. We’ve been looking at the wrong people all along." Yes, that’s their thought, and Du You intentionally misled them.

In the hearts of these Beastmen, the real reason for the Kobolds’ growth wasn’t due to Du You’s leadership; it was this eight-tier individual hidden in the dark.

He probably didn’t reveal himself even after reaching seven-tier but continued researching cultivation methods suited for Kobolds. The current leader was merely a figurehead kept in the open to attract attention.

"I get it now; the Kobolds’ main god is truly cunning, completely concealing himself . Such patience is something many of us can’t learn." Everyone present was utterly shocked.

"Truly extraordinary. Even though we don’t know how long it took, unleashing a fully adapted cultivation secret skill for Kobolds, it’s no wonder they’ve risen to eight-tier. But who knows if other Kobolds have this ability as well. Damn, the Kobolds have become an upper-class race, so how will we use Kobolds as labor in the future?"

Everyone was very frustrated because there were simply too many Kobolds. If they couldn’t slaughter them freely, who knows how many more would be born. Among the Beastmen, there are very few with a higher reproductive capability than the Kobolds.

Next to him, Du You’s eyes flashed with a trace of a smile. Now all attention was drawn to the scapegoat he had pushed into the limelight, and even future interest in the Kobolds would be on this guardian. Thɪs chapter is updatᴇd by 𝗻𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹~𝓯𝓲𝓻𝓮~𝚗𝚎𝚝

In the shadows, he could do more things. Speaking of which, the people sent to assassinate him over the years had been quite a nuisance for Du You.

Although this guy can’t directly intervene, Du You never intended to let him intervene. Attracting the world’s will’s attention prematurely doesn’t align with his interests, so for now, things will stay this way.

Du You noticed that a large portion of the world’s will was already focused on the Kobold guardian.

Perhaps the world’s will was a bit puzzled because this guy’s aura was slightly different from this world. But as long as the guardian didn’t show obvious hostility or destruction towards this world, there wouldn’t be any problems.

For the Beastman world, every strong individual is extremely precious, especially given their precarious situation. There are a few nine-tiers out there, ready to strike at any moment, which is indeed very dangerous.
