The universe had always been a place where strength spoke for itself and determined one's standing.
Humanity was no exception.
Lin Yuan understood this well.
In the original story, when Luo Feng was not strong enough, he could only claim half ownership of his home planet. It was only after he reached the level of a Universe Master that he reclaimed full ownership of Earth.
And even the process of reclaiming ownership had not gone smoothly. Although Luo Feng could stand on equal footing with the Universe Masters of humanity, he still faced fierce opposition from Lord of Huangjian and others.
In the end, it was Founder of the Great Axe who had to make the final decision.
At the time, Luo Feng had been recognized by the race as a Universe Master-level being because he had once killed more than six thousand Universe Venerables in an instant.
Although Luo Feng's rate of growth had astonished the Universe Masters of humanity, his demonstrated strength was still far from matching theirs.
That was why Lord of Huangjian and the others dared to dispute Earth's ownership with Luo Feng.
Lin Yuan certainly wouldn't tolerate the same thing happening to him.
A fight was naturally the simplest way to demonstrate one's strength.
"Oh? You want to have a match?" Lord of Huangjian looked at Lin Yuan. "Interesting. You're right—rather than making empty claims, we might as well test your strength in battle."
"Anjue." Lord of Huangjian turned to the black-armored figure seated beside him. "You can fight our newly promoted Universe Master."
Lord of Anjue was also a Universe Master from the Universe Mercenary Alliance. Among Third-Order Universe Masters, he was considered quite powerful.
"Lord of Huangjian!"
"Lord of Huangjian, don't be rash!"
Chaos City Lord and Lord of Void Gold both frowned.
