According to the original plan, during the early stage of the chaos, Liu Zixuan and others did not intend to reveal themselves. First, to avoid exposing their strength too soon, allowing them to defeat the enemy unexpectedly; second, to preserve strength until the critical moment of treasure acquisition, when they could use thunderous methods to guard the Star Sea treasure.
But now, with just a few words from King Maiqi, Liu Zixuan has been pushed into the limelight.
Though many martial artists belittle Liu Zixuan, even mocking him, how can personal dignity compare to the dignity of a nation?
If he goes, at worst, it means exposing his strength early and becoming an enemy of all these martial artists.
But if he doesn't go, wouldn't foreign martial artists think that the great Star Sea is empty of talents?
Therefore, at this moment, personal matters cannot be considered; for this fertile land, for the Star Sea with five thousand years of cultural heritage, one must stand forward!
After explaining to Luo Xi, Sword Demon also remarked, "Zixuan is doing this for the larger picture."
Luo Xi's lips moved slightly; her heart didn't have many thoughts, not complicating the matter, concerned only about Liu Zixuan's safety.
Nonetheless, she respects and supports Liu Zixuan's decision at this moment.
She sighed softly, "Be careful of everything!"
Liu Zixuan smiled confidently, his figure flashed, and he proceeded straight towards King Maiqi, standing beside him in an instant, teasingly saying, "Brother Maiqi is right, such chaos indeed is not the way, there should be an order."
"Then what kind of order does Brother Zixuan find appropriate?" King Maiqi asked with hidden intent in his smile.
Liu Zixuan raised his eyebrows, "If you're just asking my opinion, then naturally, the most suitable order would be for you foreign martial artists to all leave Star Sea!"
"Well said!"
"Exactly, you covet our Star Sea treasure, yet have the face to talk about order?"
As Liu Zixuan's voice fell, numerous Star Sea martial artists below started to cheer.
If you truly asked every Star Sea martial artist, they would all give the same answer: an invader, how dare they speak of order!
Evidently, King Maiqi did not expect Liu Zixuan to be so direct, causing his face to flush red momentarily. But, as a man who has seen much of the world, he managed to squeeze out a smile: "Now that everyone is present, and it's inevitable to open the treasure, discussing this is naturally useless, Brother Zixuan should speak of something more realistic."
"He's just a pretty boy, what realistic words can he say?"
"Yeah, will he introduce us to some rich girls or what?"
The foreign martial artists, having been somewhat frustrated earlier, immediately began to mock Liu Zixuan upon finding a breakthrough.
Liu Zixuan looked up, revealing a gentle smile, but deep within his eyes, killing intent surged.
The Qingyu Folding Fan in his hand quivered slightly, sending two invisible qi streams straight towards the two martial artists who had just cursed.
Thump!
Thump!
Two soft sounds echoed one after another as the two martial artists fell to the ground with a crash!
Instantly, all martial artists tightened their grip on their weapons, nerves taut.
"Are you trying to provoke public anger?" King Maiqi asked sarcastically.
"Isn't this what you wanted to see?" Liu Zixuan turned his head with a teasing smile.
Before King Maiqi could respond, Liu Zixuan shouted to the surrounding martial artists, "What you think of me, how you curse me, that's your business. If I don't hear it, do as you please. But if I do hear it, sorry, even if I'm made of clay, I would still have some temper. Since I dared to move against those two just now, naturally, I have prepared to face all of you."
"Don't talk about your numbers; this is Star Sea, not your home turf. If you dare to challenge, step forward one by one, and see if I dare to fight!"
Faced with these aggressive individuals, Liu Zixuan, whether in the past, present, or future, would not tolerate them!
Though many martial artists were dissatisfied, under the current circumstances, none dared to be the first to stand out.
After all, this was within Star Sea's territory.
Seeing everyone quiet down, Liu Zixuan looked at King Maiqi beside him: "Brother Maiqi, do you really want me to set a good order?"
"As long as I can accept it, naturally it's the best!" King Maiqi smiled, "But let's not mention what you just did."
"Alright, an order you can absolutely accept."
Liu Zixuan glanced around and loudly declared, "Yudou Treasure belongs within the Star Sea Realm, but it's also part of the world's ancient ruins. It stands to reason that we shouldn't monopolize it entirely. Thus, let's set a rule; as long as you meet the conditions, you can stay here to compete for the treasure."
"What conditions?" Someone asked.
"Very simple, martial artists above the Innate Emperor Realm Second Heaven can stay, those below automatically withdraw. If you don't agree, I think there's no need to elaborate further; you will face sieges from major top forces!"
King Maiqi wanted to dismantle Star Sea's original unity, so Liu Zixuan now first dismantled these foreign martial artists.
Using the Innate Emperor Realm as a dividing line.
After all, everyone hopes to obtain more of the treasure, while others get less or none. With this separation, since those above Innate Emperor Realm are few, many will be eliminated.
This rule from Liu Zixuan undoubtedly pleased many top forces.
Firstly, it saves a lot of trouble.
Secondly, there's no need to deal with miscellaneous individuals, directly getting to the main point!
Of course, this also meant thoroughly offending martial artists below the Innate Emperor Realm Second Heaven!
"Why!"
"We are martial artists too, and Star Sea has martial artists below the Innate Emperor Realm Second Heaven. Will they withdraw too?"
"This is unfair!"
"Fair?" Liu Zixuan scoffed, "Did you ask for our permission when you unauthorizedly entered the Star Sea Yudou Mountain Range, is that fair? Back then when you bullied our Star Sea lower realm martial artists with your higher strength, did you think about fairness?"
"You…"
"I think Brother Zixuan makes a valid argument."
Some tried to argue back, but King Maiqi immediately interrupted them.
He looked around, "I, King Maiqi, represent the Divine Court Sect, cooperating with the Star Sea Martial Realm to enforce this rule, all below the Innate Emperor Realm Second Heaven must withdraw from the Yudou Mountains."
"I, Qiao Siyang, represent the Angel Sect, cooperating with Star Sea martial artists to enforce this rule!"
"I, Matsubara Field, represent the Void Mountain Sect, cooperating with Star Sea martial artists to enforce this rule!"
"I…"
One by one, world-renowned top sects and forces expressed their positions.
Such a rule, undoubtedly, was all benefit with no harm to them; cooperating was a pleasure!
