By Rights, Someone at His Level Wasn't Qualified to Know About Me
Li Jing looked at King Tian Yu and his entourage, who were respectfully bowing to him, and felt a slight sense of doubt.
Logically speaking, someone of King Tian Yu's caliber shouldn't be qualified to know his true background.
More likely, someone behind the other party said something to him that made King Tian Yu, Invincible King, set aside his dignity and treat him, a member of a Universe Level Primal Secret Region Member, with such respect.
With a slight thought, Li Jing, through the wisp of consciousness that logged into the Virtual Universe, instructed the intelligent assistant, Xiao Ka, to search for information about the King Tian Yu.
With his authority surpassing that of some ordinary Universe Venerable, he quickly opened the box containing the King Tian Yu.
Is the teacher the Venerable Zi Yu from the Virtual Universe Company lineage?
All of this was probably at the behest of Venerable Zi Yu.
With the Virtual Universe Company's gag order, Venerable Zi Yu certainly wouldn't dare to leak it out, but he could subtly hint to his disciple, King Tian Yu, to show him goodwill through some means.
Having thoroughly grasped the information about King Tian Yu, and not wanting to offend someone who was smiling, Li Jing nodded to King Tian Yu with a smile.
"King Tian Yu, there's no need for such formalities. I'm merely here for the Demon Mountain Trial; there's no need for such a grand welcome."

Seeing that Li Jing's personality didn't seem difficult to get along with, King Tian Yu secretly breathed a sigh of relief, his smile remaining unchanged.
"Not at all, this wasn't organized by me. They all heard about Your Highness Li Jing's outstanding performance in the Genius Battle and wanted to meet you and learn from your talent!"
"Although I am the head of Virtual Universe Company in Demon Mountain, I can't go against the will of the people below, so I have no choice but to go with the flow."
Despite his thick eyebrows and large eyes, King Tian Yu was actually a master in this field. His flattery was truly refreshing.
The ordinary staff members of the Virtual Universe Company below nodded repeatedly, looking as if King Tian Yu was right and that's exactly what they thought.
While maintaining respectful smiles, Marquis Aurora and Marquis Po Yu couldn't help but secretly sigh in their hearts that King Tian Yu was still of a higher level.
They couldn't come up with such words; they could only try to flatter her. Whether it would be effective was uncertain, but the situation would definitely be much more awkward.
"Alright, there's no need for that next time. Please, King Tian Yu, arrange for the Demonic Sound Trial to begin as soon as possible so I can leave after completing my mission," Li Jing said with a smile.
There's only one chance, so how can we not seize it, regardless of whether there will be a next time?
Even if it exists, it might just be the time to receive the Demon Sound Divine General Inheritance.
The cost of rebuilding a good relationship then will be much higher than it is now!
Even if Li Jing has exceptional talent and a prestigious status, he is still only at the Universe Level.
How could one easily ignore the flattering treatment from someone Invincible King?
King Tian Yu thought to himself, his face remaining impassive, still maintaining his standard smile.
"Of course, of course. I will arrange for someone to begin the trials at Demon Sound Mountain immediately. I wish Your Highness Li Jing a successful completion of the trials and a safe return."
Under the arrangement of King Tian Yu, a white-robed protector immediately presented Li Jing with a Red Token.
"Your Highness Li Jing, this Red Token is a symbol of your identity, corresponding to the Black Token of the natives. When you approach 500..."
When the rice is being cooked, a sensor will be activated; please pay attention.
"If Your Highness Li Jing collects 10,000 Black Token, you will receive a special reward in addition to the basic mission points."
At the same time, a Silver-robed Deacon flew to the group of the Nine Star Sea natives who were waiting in a flat, sunken area in the distance and distributed a Black Token to each of them.
"Listen, you're very lucky. You've encountered His Highness Li Jing from my Virtual Universe Company, who is preparing to enter Demon Mountain for training. You don't need to gather 10,000 people to go in with him."
"The rules remain the same as before: after surviving inside for a month, you will have the opportunity to join the outer perimeter of my Virtual Universe Company and leave Nine Star Sea."
"If we can kill His Highness Li Jing and obtain the Red Token in his possession, we can directly join the Core Layer of my Virtual Universe Company, receive focused training, and enjoy other special rewards."
The natives simply and silently placed the Black Token close to their bodies.
As for killing Li Jing, seizing the Red Token, and joining the Core Layer of the Virtual Universe Company to obtain mysterious rewards...
That's something I wouldn't even dare to dream of!
If it were those Virtual Universe Company princes who were only greeted by ordinary Silver-robed Deacon and white-robed protectors, they might still have the idea of hunting them down.
After all, from what they knew, although the Core Layer princes of the Virtual Universe Company were highly regarded, if they died in the Demon Mountain Trial mission, no one would investigate; they could only blame their lack of strength.
However, His Highness Li Jing was personally greeted by the Divine Emperor, who was extremely respectful and even somewhat obsequious.
If a prince of this rank were to die at the hands of one of them—
Joining the Core Layer Virtual Universe Company?
Claim your mystery reward?
It seems they're trying to recreate the scenario of "tomorrow's pay being distributed at the drill ground; weapons are not required" in some of the powerful nations of the Nine Star Sea.
Let alone dying directly at the hands of some of them, even if His Highness Li Jing dies from Soul Attack by the Demonic Sound or from Phantom Beast.
It's estimated that not a single living being within the entire Demon Mountain area, including the entire Nine Star Sea, will survive.
Even the yolks of ferocious beast eggs must be shaken apart, and earth dragons must be cleaved upright.
Not only could they not hunt down Prince Li Jing, they also had to do everything they could to prevent him from dying during the trial.
Otherwise, they cannot afford the consequences.
Soon, Li Jing and the group of natives entered the Demon Sound Mountain in batches.
"Your Highness Li Jing, this is the Black Token I collected. Please accept it! Oh, and I also have some information about the rules of the Demonic Sound. Please be sure to accept that as well!"
Once again, Li Jing encountered a powerful native who immediately bowed down in worship. He now possessed over six thousand Black Token.
He never intended to collect them, yet he ended up accumulating more and more tokens.
Every native he encountered enthusiastically gave him tokens and information, making him feel a little embarrassed.
"Although Nine Star Sea is a bit remote, the people are very kind and honest! It makes him feel embarrassed to harm them."
Li Jing casually tossed the Red Token in his hand, silently thinking to himself.
Of course, he also knew that all of this was due to King Tian Yu's previous actions.
Otherwise, his experiences could be referenced from Luo Feng in the original storyline.
Not all the natives of Demon Mountain were aware that Li Jing was not someone to be trifled with.
These people were basically in the batches that came in before Li Jing.
But every time they were about to make a move against Li Jing, they were stopped by the natives who came in behind them and they were told the reason.
Before long, almost all the natives knew of Li Jing's existence, and they would bow down and pay homage upon meeting him.
The cards are all top-notch.
Everything went so smoothly that it felt like we weren't here for a Desperate Level trial mission, but rather to become emperors of the Demon Mountain.
What frustrates Li Jing is that he has yet to encounter the Demon Sound Divine General Inheritance.
Ultimately, it was just a matter of luck.
Wait, isn't that Molo? A living map has arrived!
