編輯: EndlessFantasy Translation
[ The rankings have been fully announced. The ranking will last for seven days. After seven days, the ranking will be finalized. Rewards will be distributed accordingly after being finalized. ]
[ After the rewards have been distributed, the next rankings will be announced immediately. ]
Rumble!!!
The huge golden text in the night sky let out a deafening sound. It was like a loud bell ringing in the minds of everyone on the Blue Planet.
Then...
the golden text trembled slightly and disappeared without a trace. Only a board that was emitting multicolored light was left floating in the air.
Following this, it made the announcement regarding the rewards' distribution.
Many powerhouses were shaken by the announcement.
"What? The rewards will only be released after seven days?"
"I have a great idea! Why don't we hunt them down? Who knows, we might be able to replace their position once the rankings are finalized."
"Haha, he who laugh last, laughs hardest. This is our chance!"
Many Stage 9 powerhouses were already gearing up to make their move.
7 days was neither long nor short, it all depended on how they operated.
However...
Making it onto the board was not as simple as simply defeating them.
One had to have the ability to make it onto the board in the first place.
Otherwise, what use was it even if everyone ganged up on one person?
Although there were many restrictions in place...
It was not entirely impossible to increase their rankings.
For example...
If someone were to kill their companions after ganging up on one of the top-ranking beast tamers, there was a good chance that they would make it into the board, as they would be considered as the person who defeated the top ranker.
Another option was to dispose of the beast tamer and take the pet beasts as their own.
The second method was simpler, more direct, and more efficient.
However, in the worst case, they might encounter an aggressive pet beast, and if that were to happen, not only would they gain no benefits, they would also waste precious time.
Many experts were wracking their brains to plan the best course of action.
Human greed was endless, and the fact that all the rewards that the Hundred Beasts Board provided were extremely rare had made it impossible for the beast tamers to suppress their greed.
However..,
In contrast to the powerhouses who were beginning to take action, the major factions within the Blue Planet had gone silent.
In fact, they were a little jittery.
"In the name of La Po wo Palace, I forbid all high-tier beast tamers from stepping foot into rebel territory."
A deep, dignified, and thunderous voice rang out from La Powo Palace.
"All beast tamers of Weizhou Bao Temple who are
"All Aramborg beast tamers, return now!"
"All those who belong to the Oguapu Palace, return immediately. Do not make any delays."
On the Oguapu Palace, the godfather's order was also spread out.
All the major powers in the world issued urgent decrees one after another.
All the powerful beast tamers had to be recalled. They needed to tread cautiously.
This was especially true for the top rankers who had made it onto the leaderboard. There was no room for dilly-dallying.
However, the main reason for these major powers' reactions was due to a single person... Joe.
Although low-tier beast tamers and the common folk might not think much about him, to those who used to stand at the peak of the world, Joe's name had struck fear into their hearts.
In just half a day, a large group of powerhouses had returned to the La Powo Palace.
Blair and several other Stage 9 beast tamers had gathered.
"Everyone!"
Sitting on the throne, Braddock said in a deep voice.
"I'm sure you've guessed my intentions for gathering all of you here, right?"
"Of course, Your Highness."
A charming and beautiful woman with long golden hair was the first to speak.
"To avoid offending Master Joe, do we need to hide in the snow mountains of the La Serena Plateau throughout these 7 days?"
"Your Highness, with all due respect, we don't need to target Joe. We can still attack the other beast tamers claim their spots, no?"
The battle-hungry Blair hurriedly interjected.
"If we can plunder the rewards on this list, it will be very beneficial to us!"
"I see you still don't think before you speak, Blair."
Anthony snorted coldly.
"The rebel army has declined over the years, and although the La Powo Palace isn't constantly engaged in battle with them, we still have some skirmishes from time to time."
"If we don't figure out Joe's relation to the rebel army soon, it will spell a disaster for us."
As soon as Braddock said that, everyone's expressions turned serious.
The Palace Master was right.
The rebel army occupied copious amounts of land throughout the Blue Planet. They owned several secret realms.
Over the years, many countries had fought against the rebel army.
However, since the rebel army did not own any Divine Beasts, their strength was highly limited.
If Joe was truly related to the rebel army, it would be an earth-shattering crisis for all the other forces.
"Your Highness, since you called us here, do you have a way to deal with it?"
Fredrick, who was wearing a black robe and exposing only half of his face asked in a deep voice.
Everyone turned their attention to Braddock.
Braddock gently stroked the armrest of the throne and suddenly looked at a blonde woman who was wearing armor and had a graceful figure not far away.
"Austine Beatrice, What do you think we should do?"
Austin Beatrice was known as the most intelligent person within the La Powo Palace.
She had hailed from the bloodline of a goddess.
The incomparably beautiful Austine Beatrice bowed slightly and asked, "Your Highness, do you want me to use it?"
"Haha!"
Braddock chuckled heartily, "Not bad, your wisdom is indeed outstanding."
"The reason that I've gathered all of you is so that we can blow that broken horn to reawaken the gods."
Hearing this, everyone's expressions changed.
"What? Awaken the gods?"
Everyone's expressions were filled with shock.
It was a secret of the La Powo Palace.
Legend had it that a divine item passed down from the Fall of the Gods. It was called the Fallen God Horn.
Once blown, it would temporarily revive the soul of the gods that had been destroyed by the passage of time.
However...
The horn was a consumable item that could only be blown five times.
It had already been blown four times before this.
They could only blow it one last time.
It was the La Powo Palace's trump card, and it was not to be used lightly.
Seeing everyone's shocked expression, Braddock continued, "Everyone, we know next to nothing about Joe. The only way we can affirm his stance is by asking the fallen gods from the ancient times."
"That's right! We know nothing about Joe, but I bet the gods must know."
Blair was the first to speak.
"If he really is a god, there's no way we can beat him. But if he isn't..."
Blair's eyes flared with bloodlust.
