Of course they're different. The entire Elf race was created by the Holy Tree, so destroying it would be very easy. What Elf race would dare to disrespect the Holy Tree? As for this Beast God of Orns, judging from my impressions from my previous life, he seems to be completely inferior to a single leaf of the Holy Tree.
After thinking for a moment, Qiqi gave a relatively reasonable reason. "It's probably because of the survival of the fittest."
Soon, the three arrived at the palace gate.
The capital of the Beastman Empire was far more magnificent and larger than that of the Elf race.
After all, the orcs are much larger than the Elf race.
As she walked along the road, Qiqi saw many minotaurs over three meters tall guarding the area.
Even the exquisite stone gate in front of us is over ten meters high.
Besides the three-meter-tall minotaurs, there are probably other orcs even taller, such as giraffe-men.
Arriving at the banquet inside the palace.
Inside a banquet hall of over 5,000 square meters, the place was resplendent in gold and filled with melodious music.
Food and drinks were placed everywhere for anyone to take.
In this banquet that had already begun, Qiqi experienced firsthand what the exaggerated description of a "jade garden with a pool of wine" truly meant.
Fragrant wine spilled onto the ground.
The meat leg, only partially bitten, was covered in dust and left on the ground.
Jade and grapes, crystal chandeliers and luminous glasses... the former on the wall, the latter on the floor...
Despite being a country with scarce resources, the banquets inside the royal palace featured such lavish food and drink.
Moreover, banquets of this caliber are held every day.
Kurumi chuckled and said, "Compared to the aroma of food, I smell more of decay and desire..."
Qiqi: "..."
At this moment, only one line of poetry came to Qiqi's mind. "Behind the red gates, meat and wine go to waste; on the road, frozen corpses lie."
Fu Bingqiao didn't think too much about it. She followed behind Hu Lexuan, looking around calmly.
For her, she was more interested in seeing the princes and princesses than the food.
Looking back at history, this was the first time Fu Bingqiao had ever seen a dynasty with more than five hundred princes and princesses.
Although it's just a game, it's enough to pique her curiosity.
When it comes to deciding who will inherit the throne, what kind of bloody battle will these five hundred princes and princesses fight?
That really piques my curiosity.
"Fox Priest, it's rare for you to attend our gathering. Does this mean you're in the mood to play a few tunes and dance, so we can admire your graceful figure?"
A prince approached, swirling a luminous cup, and spoke recklessly.
"Wow, what an impolite little lion..." Fu Bingqiao glanced at the top of his head, recognized his species, and muttered to herself.
Hu Lexuan was not surprised by this.
Hu Lexuan's impression of him was: the 162nd prince, a dissolute beastman.
"Your Shi Yun, I have brought the Descenders has been blessed by the Beast God today. She has passed the Beast God's test. Therefore, I will follow the rules and bring her into the palace to undergo the test."
"Oh~" Shi Yun looked at Fu Bingqiao, then said disdainfully, "Where did this ugly thing come from?"
"The Beast God actually approves of such a person. Is he getting old and his eyesight is failing?"
Qiqi mentally typed a 6.
This was the first time Qiqi had ever seen someone in the Meta World so openly and blatantly insult their own god.
Perhaps the Beast God Orns was too weak; otherwise, if his people cursed him so much, he would at least have been punished as a warning to future generations.
The reason this prince is so arrogant is clearly because no other prince has been punished for insulting the Beast God.
Hu Lexuan ignored Shi Yun's foolish remarks and led Fu Bingqiao directly onto the stage of the banquet hall.
Chase away those wriggling Catgirl and snakegirls.
And publicly announced Fu Bingqiao's identity.
Fu Bingqiao's identity was quickly questioned, because even the Crown Prince had only passed level 39, so how did she, a weak Descenders, manage to pass level 49?
The eldest prince listened to Shi Yi's words and believed that Fu Bingqiao just happened to be there when the trial grounds malfunctioned.
Otherwise, with her abilities, how could she have cleared level 49?
Qiqi glanced at the First Prince's strength.
Level 45, Rare to Legendary, Life Level, Attribute Growth Cap is 55, Talents and Skills...
Its attribute leans towards strength, with over 5,000 points of strength.
With weapons included, the attack power exceeds ten thousand.
Based on this skill level, it's definitely possible to clear all 40 levels.
Hu Lexuan said, "If you don't acknowledge the strength of the Descenders, you can go up on stage and challenge her. If she defeats you all, then you can go to see the Emperor. If she fails, then you can only wait until she becomes strong enough for you to acknowledge her."
When orcs compete, it all boils down to who has the greater strength.
Therefore, Shi Yi immediately jumped out and Fu Bingqiao to a strength contest.
A simple test of strength is arm wrestling.
"This prince who jumped out also has a strength of 4230 points. Fu Bingqiao will probably lose."
Kurumi: "Aren't you going to help her?"
"Are we considered an outside force?" Qiqi turned to look at Hu Lexuan.
Hu Lexuan said calmly, "No, you are her followers and her strength."
Since that's the case.
Fu Bingqiao then winked at Qiqi and Kurumi, asking them to give her a buff.
Qiqi didn't care. After reverting to her original form, she applied the "Witch's Favor" buff to Fu Bingqiao. The "Forbidden Curse" only increases attack, so this was unnecessary.
Kurumi also fired the "Third Bullet" at Fu Bingqiao.
With the two skill bonuses, plus Su Xi's own aura skill [Maiden's Love], Fu Bingqiao's four stats increased by 68% + 60 points.
The two sat down at a stone table.
The girl's hand clasped the Lionfolk's giant hand.
Visually, Fu Bingqiao's hand looked like it could be snapped off at any moment.
In fact, Shi Yi had already revealed a wicked smile. He seemed to have already imagined himself breaking the girl's hand in front of him and then screaming miserably.
"If you admit defeat now, I might let you go, you weak human," Shi Yi mocked.
"Hehe, it hasn't even started yet," Fu Bingqiao said confidently.
Hu Lexuan calmly counted down. "3, 2, 1, start!"
"Bang!"
The stone table made a loud noise, cracks appeared, and then it shattered.
Rumble.
The stone table is broken.
Shi Yi's massive hand was pinned down and twisted by Fu Bingqiao's delicate white hand.
The immense pain contorted Shi Yi's face.
"What's going on...?"
Qiqi was a little confused. Even with so many buffs, Fu Bingqiao's power couldn't possibly be this exaggerated...
Before Qiqi could figure it out, the system's voice came to her ears.
"Ding! You assisted player [Fu Bufu] in defeating Shi Yi, the 326th prince of the Orc race. You have received 0.5 * [39 * 1000] experience points."
