Sun Wang stared in shock at the group of uninvited guests.

The leader was a middle-aged man dressed in a sharp suit. What caught Sun Wang's attention was the emblem on the man's chest: a fist gripping a bright moon.

Grasping the sun and moon, plucking the stars.

"It's someone from Apex City…" Sun Wang thought, stunned.

Apex City was one of the top forces. It housed Eleventh Order experts (Great Saints) who had broken their genetic locks and could easily destroy an entire star domain. For such a powerful organization to send someone here was extraordinary.

The middle-aged man smiled and said, "So this is the young brother who cleared the nightmare-level beginner instance?"

He completely ignored Sun Wang and focused his gaze on Su Chen.

Su Chen glanced at him. He was not surprised that the man knew about him clearing the nightmare-level instance. Such news could not be hidden from truly influential powers. The force behind the middle-aged man was significant, and the man himself was a Nirvana realm expert.

However, Su Chen was not interested.

A bit of arrogance was normal for a genius.

The middle-aged man's smile remained as he handed over a black card. "I am from Apex City. I would like to invite you to join us. This card contains one hundred thousand points. If you are willing to join Apex City, not only will you receive the points, but you will also gain guidance from our veteran divine envoys. This is an excellent choice for you."

"Lu Feilong, this is a once-in-ten-thousand-years newcomer who cleared a nightmare-level instance, and you're trying to recruit him with a mere one hundred thousand points? How stingy. Truly too stingy."

A hearty laugh rang out from afar. A man arrived riding a flying sword, hands behind his back, exuding the elegant demeanor of a sword immortal.

Sun Wang held his breath.

"Flying Immortal Pavilion… It's actually someone from Flying Immortal Pavilion…"

Flying Immortal Pavilion was also one of the top forces in the region. Unlike Apex City, they followed the path of immortal cultivation, wielding magical artifacts to slay enemies from thousands of miles away.

"Jiang Bai!" Lu Feilong's expression darkened. If looks could kill, Jiang Bai would have died countless times.

Jiang Bai paid no attention to him. "One hundred thousand points? Young brother, don't ruin your bright future over short-term gains. Our Flying Immortal Pavilion is willing to offer one million points. If you join us, the one million points are yours!"

One million points left even Lu Feilong staring at Jiang Bai in shock.

Sun Wang was completely dumbfounded.

The story has been taken without consent; if you see it on Amazon, report the incident.

One million points… That was one million points!

In the Main God Hall, points granted nearly unlimited power, even immortality and indestructibility. With one million points, Sun Wang could become a major figure everyone looked up to. Now that a heaven-defying opportunity stood before him, he swallowed hard, barely suppressing the urge to agree immediately.

He knew the Flying Immortal Pavilion was not recruiting him.

"One million points? Is your Flying Immortal Pavilion going bankrupt? That event is about to begin soon!"

Lu Feilong lowered his voice. One million points was no small sum. It was a massive fortune even for them, especially when investing in a newcomer at such a critical time. Every point mattered.

Jiang Bai replied calmly, "That's none of Apex City's concern. Our Flying Immortal Pavilion has always valued talent. One million points is nothing. A prodigy like this young brother is worth every bit of it."

Lu Feilong cursed inwardly: "Pretentious bastard."

Jiang Bai turned his gaze to Su Chen.

He noticed that the young man before him remained even calmer than he was upon hearing the offer of one million points.

"Wait a moment. Our Mechanical God Sect is also willing to offer one million points, along with a Ninth Order Saint Core to reconstruct your body."

A burly black-and-gold figure arrived late.

The Mechanical God Sect was another top force in the region.

One million points plus a Ninth Order Saint Core…

Sun Wang's throat felt dry. A Ninth Order Saint Core was worth no less than a Saint artifact. It was a heaven-defying treasure. He glanced at its price in the Main God Space… three million points!

In total, the offers were worth four million points… Sun Wang felt dizzy, his eyes turning red.

If only those four million points were his!

To his astonishment, facing such enormous temptation, the youth remained completely unmoved…

He wished he could answer in Su Chen's place.

Lu Feilong's expression darkened. The others were offering one million points each, and now even a Ninth Order Saint Core had appeared. Didn't this make Apex City look incredibly stingy? If word of this spread, it would be a massive blow to their reputation!

Gritting his teeth, Lu Feilong said, "Our Apex City is also willing to offer one million points, plus any Ninth Order Saint artifact of your choice!"

In terms of value, a Ninth Order Saint artifact was superior to a Ninth Order Saint Core.

Lu Feilong had gone all out.

Jiang Bai: "..."

Were these two forces trying to go bankrupt?

"A once-in-ten-thousand-years newcomer who cleared a nightmare-level instance, and you people are trying to recruit him with mere points?"

A light, pleasant female laugh echoed through the city. A pair of delicate jade feet stepped across rippling water, accompanied by the clear sound of bells. An otherworldly woman in a ruqun dress appeared. She looked disdainfully at the other three major forces.

The Divine Maiden Pavilion had arrived. The four top forces of the region were now gathered in one place, all competing for a single person.

"Qin Miaoyin!"

Seeing the woman appear, the other three forces felt their hearts sink.

Qin Miaoyin ignored their angry gazes and smiled lightly. "As long as you are willing to join our Divine Maiden Pavilion, we can fulfill everything they promised you… In addition, you may choose ten Divine Maidenes from our pavilion as your companions to assist your cultivation."

This was bad!

The eyes of the other three nearly burned with killing intent. This was completely shameless.

"Doesn't your Divine Maiden Pavilion consist entirely of women? Don't you accept men?"

Lu Feilong ground his teeth. They had arrived first, yet each subsequent offer was more outrageous than the last.

Qin Miaoyin replied disdainfully, "Our Divine Maiden Pavilion simply does not accept useless men. A newcomer who cleared a nightmare-level instance naturally has the potential we value."

Lu Feilong: "..."

What flexible standards.

The other three forces were stunned by the Divine Maiden Pavilion's shamelessness.

"So, have you considered it?"

Qin Miaoyin looked down at Su Chen with full confidence. No man could resist the temptation of the Divine Maiden Pavilion… Ordinary men found it extremely difficult to even meet one of their Divine Maidenes, let alone possess ten at once. This was the dream of any man.

This was also the purpose behind the Divine Maiden Pavilion's schemes spanning tens of thousands of years. Today, upon encountering Su Chen, they had finally bared their fangs!
