Chapter 887: Chapter 887
"Hello everyone, I am one of the fortunate hosts of this grand event, and my name is Sweetie. If you like me, please vote for me!"
A crisp and beautiful female voice was accompanied by the thunderous sound of huge cannons.
Figures appeared on the live-streaming platform amidst the blasts of the cannons.
This broadcast will include many factions and regional media outlets, with just the preparation costs being an astronomical figure. No wonder the smaller and medium-sized factions are sharpening their minds to seize the chance to host this event.
This time, the Da Tan people, as the organizers for the collection of quotas, naturally have ten basic quotas and the advantage of playing on their home ground. If nothing unexpected happens, the Da Tan people will make a fortune from this event.
But that’s often the case for past organizing powers.
"Next to enter is a contestant from Angel Camp, led by none other than Lord TianZhi, known as the Strongest Evil Eye. Look, their team even includes a flying strong person who has recently made headlines, the enigmatic Lord Jia Yan. Right upon his arrival at Da Tan, he caused quite a stir among our people. I wonder if he, who once fought to a draw with a Dragon Strong, will continue to surprise us?"
Among the monstrous teams, Jia Yan felt like a wild beast caged in a zoo, watched by countless eyes.
For the Da Tan people, the main culprit who first disrupted their grand event was none other than Jia Yan, just as the host’s words seemed to sing his praises yet actually incited a torrent of curses from numerous viewers!
"Get lost! Lord Jia Yan? He’s nothing but a scum who would kill his own superior!"
"Exactly, this guy even started a battle on our important day, absolutely a rule-breaker and a scumbag."
"Roll back to where you came from, along with that Dragon person!"
When Jia Yan appeared on camera, countless local viewers made noise.
After all, these locals still remembered this individual who was the first to cast a shadow over this year’s collection event. Even though it was the Dragon Strong who struck first, Jia Yan’s counterattack paid no heed to the Da Tan people’s buildings and even resulted in casualties.
After rooting out information on this man, many locals even began to sympathize with the Dragon person. His child was killed by Jia Yan. Even though at the time Jia Yan was a subordinate of another Dragon Strong, to the confused Da Tan people, this was an act tantamount to biting the hand that feeds. Such a person was almost universally loathed!
"Haha, it seems our Angel Camp is quite infamous."
The Four-eyed Monster, known as the Strongest Evil Eye, now let out a self-deprecative chuckle.
At this moment, he wasn’t sure if inviting Jia Yan had been the right decision. Although there had been some benefits before, such a bad reputation could have an adverse effect on the future.
"Only the mediocre are free from envy. The more these weaklings behave , the greater our influence must be. As long as we perform well in the upcoming events, I’m sure their boos will change," said the pink Monster, standing to one side, trying to comfort the Four-eyed Monster.
However, she glanced at Jia Yan walking by, seemingly unaffected, and couldn’t help but be amazed at his resilience.
In truth, Jia Yan had faced far more daunting situations. When the entire Earth and his species placed their hope on him, the invisible pressure he felt far outweighed these minor insults from the local Da Tan populace—it was the difference between a shaman and a charlatan.
Therefore, in this starry sky, his strength might not be the best, but when it came to mental fortitude, he was definitely top-notch.
The Angel Camp was situated in a quite sizeable area, which had even been separated from the original interstellar material of the Da Tan people.
It turned out that to host this event, the Da Tan people had spared no expense to purchase a piece of interstellar material as a dedicated venue. After the event, this interstellar material would be transformed into a residential area. If the funds raised from this quota collection event failed to meet expectations, the Da Tan people would be saddled with a huge fiscal deficit.
But none of this was the concern of Jia Yan and other contestants.
After a long corridor, Jia Yan, along with several Starry Sky Level Experts and Heavenly Level Contestants who were entirely overwhelmed by the grandeur, walked into the formation of other Strong Ones who had entered before.
The event was a sensation, with no less than one hundred and fifty factions of various sizes sending their teams to compete for the collection quotas.
"You’re Lord Jia Yan from Angel Camp, right? I will smash you to pieces. Just pray you don’t encounter me!"
As Jia Yan passed by a Strong One, that individual issued a fierce declaration. However, Jia Yan didn’t even turn his head in response.
"Conceited scum!" The Monster almost jumped with anger but was suppressed by the verbal restraints of other Strong Ones in the same team.
After all, it would be too much of a loss to be disqualified from the competition over a reckless fight at this critical juncture.
"There are so many Starry Sky Level Experts here!"
Although Jia Yan appeared calm, deep down he was anything but.
He had originally thought this so-called quota collection competition was just a modest event, but had never expected it to be such a high-profile affair!
