Back Then, He Was Actually the One Who Held Back Against Me

What are your thoughts?

As Li Baimei finished speaking, another voice said:

Similar ideas have been mentioned many times throughout history, and some have even been implemented, but the final results have always been somewhat unsatisfactory.

"Indeed," another voice chimed in.

"This matter is inherently difficult, and with a limited number of people involved, while the starting point is good, if too much time passes, it inevitably carries the implication of a shift in responsibility. These matters concern everyone's interests, but if the pressure falls only on a few..."

"I don't object, but I'm afraid this will cause a huge fuss, only to end up being a waste of time and effort, making us a laughingstock to the Beast Race."

"..."

Almost everyone had their own ideas, and at the same time, their ideas were quite similar.

Drawing lessons from the past, the ultimate outcome of this approach is all too clear.

Why do we feel this time it's feasible after so many failures in the past?

After listening for a moment, Li Baimei said:

"We have indeed failed many times in the past, but everyone should still focus their attention on some key issues."

"Over the years, the power gap between Human Race and Beast Race has changed. The initial attempt to join forces was to take advantage of the decline of the Beast Race and the rise of Human Race to end the threat posed by the Beast Race to Human Race in one fell swoop."

"But at that time, the gap between Human Race and Beast Race was still significant, and their experience and understanding of the world were insufficient, so failure was inevitable."

"But if you carefully recall all those recorded failures, even though none of them ultimately succeeded, haven't you actually achieved more and more results?"

Most people nodded in agreement.

Long ago, the four great Beast Race occupied far more than just their respective territories.

Even a starved camel is bigger than a horse; for a long time after their decline, the Beast Race still had the power to wipe out a Human Race force.

While the Beast Race may still possess such strength today, it has been a long time since such an event has occurred.

"Another point."

Li Baimei continued:

"Every previous attempt to work together resulted in a situation we face today: the Beast Race Atavism."

"In the past, if a problem couldn't be solved immediately, there was always the option of letting time resolve it. But once you have a way out, you lose your fighting spirit, and failure becomes inevitable."

"But now,"

Li Baimei changed the subject:

"Everyone here has seen a lot and should be aware of the effects of our Human Race bloodline Atavism. Now, who can guarantee that the Beast Race's Atavism won't have the same effect?"

Using the analogy of Human Race bloodlines, many people frowned.

After cultivating to a certain level, one will develop a bloodline power that can influence future generations, passed down through generations and benefiting posterity.

However, bloodlines will gradually weaken with each generation until they reach a balance.

However, when the bloodline is truly about to disappear completely, it will be like a person's last burst of energy before death, and a descendant with extremely strong bloodline power will appear once again.

If this junior can use this power to become stronger again, then the power and the bloodline can be revitalized, and there is even a possibility that it will surpass the source of the bloodline.

Although this doesn't happen every time, nearly 40% of the time, people manage to seize this last opportunity.

But if it were the Beast Race,

They had to admit that what Li Baimei said was indeed crucial.

In the past, there was indeed no such pressure.

"Moreover," Li Baimei said, "..."

"Currently, the number of strong individuals on our Human Race is far greater than it appears on the surface. If we can unite them, they will pose a substantial threat to the Beast Race."

After a pause, Li Baimei suddenly said:

"Now that things have come to this, I won't hide it from you all."

"Actually, he let me win that battle back then."

"What?"

As soon as the words were spoken, all the powerful Human Race were deeply moved.

"Lu Lulu, that strong?"

"Is it true or not? But why didn't Lu Lulu react when the rumors spread that you won?"

"So they actually let us have it?"

Looking at Li Baimei, everyone present was filled with disbelief.

Everyone here is a powerful figure in their own right, so why do they listen so much more attentively when Li Baimei speaks?

The reason is simple: Li Baimei is very strong, both in terms of ability and background!

Otherwise, who would bother to listen carefully?

Li Baimei's power is called the Li Clan, which sounds unremarkable, even like some small force in the mortal world.

However, the history of the Li Clan is ridiculously long.

According to ancient records, the earliest time the Li Clan became famous was when someone from the Li Clan wielded a sword and slew a dragon.

Later, the Li Clan produced many other incredibly famous figures in history.

More recently, and more famously, a powerful member of the Li Clan forged the Dao-Severing Sword, using the Heavenly Dao as a sacrifice to the sword.

The final fate of that powerful figure remains unknown, but since then, the Li Clan has made further overall progress, from which we can roughly infer the outcome.

And now, it's this Li Baimei.

Born extraordinary, its journey has been anything but smooth or gradual; it has been like a series of waves, one after another, continuously growing stronger.

Li Baimei became famous the earliest among everyone present.

His record is countless, and almost every single one of his achievements has left countless geniuses in awe.

Only one.

This refers to the fight against Lu Lulu, whom everyone was talking about at the time.

That victory was, as everyone knows, a narrow one.

It was because of that incident that the strange name "Lu Lulu" became known to everyone.

After all, someone who could barely defeat Li Baimei must be incredibly strong.

So now Li Baimei is telling them that Li Baimei gave in to him?

"If I remember correctly, Li Baimei's strength was already close to what it is now back then, right? In that case..."

One of the strongmen frowned slightly:

"Then Lu Lulu's strength must be even more terrifying?"

The difference between barely winning and intentionally letting someone win is quite significant.

If there were no spare capacity, it would certainly be impossible to give way.

At this moment, someone's expression changed, and they asked:

"Just now, wasn't that aura that appeared from the White Tiger Clan Lu Lulu's?"

Upon hearing this, everyone looked at Li Baimei.

This is a very important thing.

"No."

Li Baimei shook his head:

"If it really were him, I would have just said so directly. Why would I make you ask?"

"Where is Lu Lulu now?"

Someone pressed for an answer.

If such a powerful figure could get involved, resolving the issue with the Beast Race would undoubtedly be much easier.

I've been looking for it too.

Li Baimei said, then glanced in the direction of the White Tiger Clan, and added:

"After I fought him back then, I asked him where he was going, and he told me he was going to the Dragon Race."

"Dragon Race."

The crowd's expressions shifted slightly, and they asked:

What was he doing going to the Dragon Race?

"It must have been a fight. I remember him saying he wanted to carve the character 'Lu' on the Dragon Emperor's egg. I wonder if he actually did it."

"Since then, there has been no news of him."

Upon hearing this, everyone was slightly taken aback.

His gaze couldn't help but drift towards the White Tiger Clan.

Although, at this time, the Dragon Race Dragon Emperor, Longwang Clan cannot be seen.

However, some people still couldn't help but speak up:

"So, is there really a 'land' on the egg of the Longwang Clan?"
