President Shengnan's Request

At a glance, the town where the World Association headquarters is located is bustling with people.

This contrasts sharply with the desolate scene I've witnessed on previous visits.

This current situation makes it even more lively than a typical small town should be.

Of course, these were not residents of the town, but creators from all over, as well as some visitors.

In the town, guided by staff, I found a place to park my car.

The four of them got out of the car, Ye Long couldn't help but exclaim, "This lively scene really brings life and vitality! I never imagined our Creator had so many!"

Shen Hui estimated that there were tens of thousands of creators participating in the competition, which constituted the main force of their creator army.

There weren't many people who didn't attend or whose registration was invalid.

Overall, the number of their creators is actually quite small.

"I don't quite agree that none of the five major regions managed to overcrowd this town."

Upon hearing Shen Hui's words, Ye Long immediately changed his tune to the opposite of what he had said before.

"Hey, why so many people? More people means more competition. Let's keep it to a minimum."

Xiao Xiangyan rolled her eyes. She had been quite dissatisfied with Ye Long before, so she immediately retorted, "Weren't you very confident before? Why are you scared now?"

Ye Long was annoyed again. "What am I afraid of?"

Seeing the two of them start arguing again, Shen Hui felt that they were truly destined to be enemies, while Qingxue quickly tried to smooth things over.

"Stop talking, let's go report for duty."

The four of them began walking towards the center of the town, which was not far from them and was the location of the World Association headquarters.

When we arrived at the location, a long queue had already formed.

Ye Long and Qingxue, who had both signed up, went to queue up.

Fortunately, their work efficiency was very high. Ye Long and Qingxue quickly completed their level assessment, received their group's number plate and the equipment used for the competition, and returned.

The level requirement for this registration is between level 5 and level 10 in the Creation World.

Those of lower levels are not strong enough, while those of higher levels are not suitable to go to the Chaos Forbidden Domain.

Qingxue is in the Level Five Creation World competition group, while Ye Long is in the Level Six Creation World group.

The higher the level, the fewer people will sign up, and vice versa.

Therefore, Qingxue faces the fiercest competition in the Level Five Creation World group.

Based on the allocation of places, each level has a different number of places, with a total of one thousand people.

Those whose level is close to the limit are basically all gone.

The higher the strength, the more spots are available, so some people are just there to go through the motions; they can still get a spot even if they lose to someone of the same level.

The number of slots decreases as the levels go down, and the fifth level has the fewest slots available.

The fewest people wanted it, but the most people signed up, making the competition in the Level Five Creation World feel like a hellish ordeal.

Many people started complaining after registering.

But no matter how much they complain, it's useless; that's just how strong they are.

Ye Long was quite pleased that he was out of the competition for the largest number of people because his world was Level Six Creation World.

They also comforted Qingxue together with Xiao Xiangyan, encouraging her to have confidence in herself.

If Ye Long knew that Qingxue was only there to make a show of things, and that she already had a way to reach the Chaos Forbidden Domain, he would probably cry.

Ye Long said, "Let's go rest for a bit first. The competition probably won't start until noon, so it'll be a while."

The four walked towards the World Association headquarters next door, intending to rest inside.

Although most people wouldn't be allowed in, given how many people came today.

But thanks to Ye Long's father's connections, getting in was still very easy for them.

However, just as they entered and were about to sit down in the lobby, Shen Hui and his group saw familiar faces they hadn't seen in a while.

"Shen Hui, you don't even know to greet me, do you?"

"Shengnan, how could that be? Haha, I just saw you. It's been so long since I've seen you."

Shen Hui quickly greeted them. The familiar faces were none other than Shengnan, along with her apprentice Sun Jingjing.

Shengnan Sheng Nan nodded in satisfaction, while Sun Jingjing glanced at Shen Hui with a flickering look, then at Qingxue, who was standing very close to Shen Hui and seemed very intimate with him.

He seemed to want to say something, but refrained from speaking due to his relatively unfamiliar relationship with Shen Hui, or for some other reason.

However, President Shengnan, who was standing nearby, noticed this and immediately understood her apprentice's thoughts.

He immediately looked Shen Hui and Qingxue up and down, a mischievous smile spreading across his face, and asked, "What's up, Shen Hui? You've got a girlfriend now?"

"I've never heard Chi Yan mention this before. Aren't you going to tell us about it?"

Shen Hui nodded in agreement, but before Qingxue Shen Hui up with a smile:

"Hello, Shengnan. My name is Qingxue. Shen Hui and I used to be classmates, and we are currently dating."

Upon hearing this, a clear look of disappointment flashed across Sun Jingjing's eyes.

After all, she used to like Shen Hui, and President Shengnan even tried to set them up.

Shengnan looked at Shen Hui teasingly and said bluntly, "You look down on Sun Jingjing's type, huh? That's a loss for you. Sun Jingjing is a really nice person."

After saying that, President Shengnan added, "Would you like to reconsider?"

Shen Hui gave an awkward laugh, and Sun Jingjing gave President Shengnan a resentful look. "Master, what are you doing?"

"Haha, just kidding. What's the big deal? You can't lose anything by trying, right?"

Shengnan laughed heartily, appearing quite carefree.

But Shen Hui knew that this person was very shrewd.

Sun Jingjing then looked at Shen Hui and Qingxue and said, "My master was talking nonsense, please don't mind him, congratulations."

"And Shen Hui, ever since you defeated me last time, I've been working hard to improve the strength of my Creation World. I hope we can have another chance to fight each other next time."

Shen Hui smiled and readily agreed, "No problem, definitely next time!"

Shengnan thought for a moment, and her expression gradually changed from carefree to serious:

"My daughter, Sun Jingjing, will most likely secure a spot through this competition. Shen Hui, you already have a spot. Once we enter the Chaos Forbidden Domain, I hope you can look after her. This is my request to you."

Hearing this, Sun Jingjing felt a little unconvinced, as she had just said she would challenge Shen Hui again if she had the chance.

His master's words were clearly implying that his strength was still inferior to Shen Hui's!

"Master, there's no need for that."

Shengnan Nan spoke to Sun Jingjing earnestly and seriously, "Little brat, don't interrupt. There's nothing wrong with listening to your master. Do you think I would want to harm you?"

Shen Hui nodded seriously. "No problem, I'll lend a hand within my ability."
