Demon Dragon Mad God-Chapter 88: Willing to Serve His Highness

Hearing Yu Wen Tuo’s arrogant remarks, the burly man also frowned, but recalling the other’s distinguished identity, he said nothing and simply announced loudly:

"Begin entering in batches now."

The first to enter the mountain range were those who barely passed the qualification line, which also served as protection for them. Otherwise, if they all rushed in at once, it’s very likely they wouldn’t even take a step before getting eliminated by the stronger ones right at the entrance.

This group was the largest, with more than two hundred people, you could say they made up more than half of the remaining crowd.

"Are you Lin Feng?"

Lin Feng was waiting in the crowd when two young men came over to him and gave him a once over.

Lin Feng, seeing they were strangers, asked, "And you are?"

"Oh, we are the Seventh Prince’s men. You must be the Lin Feng who got eight Grade beads in the first challenge. Our Seventh Prince appreciates you very much and wants to recruit you into his team to vie for the top spots on the leaderboard," said the youth, quite humbly, for they were merely errand runners and the person before them was a strong individual who managed to obtain eight Grade beads.

Upon hearing this, Lin Feng realized what was going on and glanced at Yu Wen Tuo, who was acting all high and mighty, then at Xu Leiting and others not far away, even the lavish-looking young man, all approached by the Seventh Prince’s men, probably to invite them into the ranks.

"So that’s Lin Feng, how enviable, to be teammates with the Seventh Prince."

"Ah, if only the Seventh Prince would recruit me as well."

Many of the surrounding youth showed envy. They were all five Grade individuals, considered to be good, but Yu Wen Tuo didn’t even give them a second glance.

You have to understand, even these errand runners were six Grade individuals.

"What do you say? Rest assured, our Seventh Prince is very approachable. As long as you join our Seventh Prince’s team, Lin Feng, we guarantee you a spot in the top five, and securing a position in the Divine Wind Camp is a done deal. Furthermore, if you continue to serve our Seventh Prince after leaving the Divine Wind Camp, the Seventh Prince can also promote your entire family, allowing you to enjoy wealth and honor," continued the two men.

However, Lin Feng just smiled and decisively declined. Sorry, Lin Feng really wasn’t in the habit of serving as someone else’s follower or being at their beck and call.

"You, you’re refusing? Lin Feng, won’t you reconsider?" The two men exchanged a glance, seemingly not expecting Lin Feng to turn them down so resolutely. freёnovelkiss.com

"Our Seventh Prince values you as a significant figure, that’s why he sent us to invite you. You should be well aware of this," one of them said meaningfully.

The implication was clear: we’re giving you face, so you should take it. Don’t be ungrateful.

Lin Feng found it amusing, "I’m very clear on where I stand. Please tell the Seventh Prince that I, Lin Feng, am apprehensive, unworthy of such esteem from the Seventh Prince, fearing I might hold him back. As for joining this team, I think I’ll pass."

Saying this, Lin Feng waved his hand indifferently and lost interest in continuing the conversation. The two men exchanged another look, not bothering with further words, and went back to report.

"Seventh Prince, Wang Ye of Perfect Grade expresses his wish to serve Your Highness!"

"Seventh Prince, Zhang Zhen of Perfect Grade expresses his wish to serve Your Highness!"

"Seventh Prince, Li Mu of Perfect Grade wishes to serve Your Highness!"

...

"Seven stars indicate excellence, eight stars signify perfection, and nine stars represent transcendence. As Yu Wen Tuo observed the multitude willing to join him, a slight smile curled at the corner of his mouth. He glanced back at the group of youths, each of them beholding him with respect and even fervor, including the opulently-dressed young man among them.

"You all are quite commendable. As long as you are willing to follow this Prince henceforth, this Prince guarantees that you will live a life superior to others!!"

"We are willing to serve the Prince!!"

The crowd cried out in unison.

Satisfied, Yu Wen Tuo nodded. The surrounding youths all looked worried. These individuals were all of seven-star Grade, and more than half had been swayed by Yu Wen Tuo. Wouldn’t this mean that the first place in this trial was undoubtedly his, a solid truth? With such a support base, who else could snatch first place from his grasp?

"Shouldn’t we do something about it? This Yu Wen Tuo has already begun forming cliques before even entering Divine Wind Camp."

A low voice spoke next to the robust man.

The robust man’s gaze fell on Yu Wen Tuo and he shook his head: "Forget it, he is the Seventh Prince after all. Forming cliques is a talent passed down in his family. Besides, who else has a transcendent Grade in this trial but him? However, I am curious if Xu Leiting and the others of Perfect Grade will also join Yu Wen Tuo’s faction."

Yu Wen Tuo glanced at the people around him. In fact, he didn’t care much for this bunch. To him, they had some potential worth nurturing, but his real concern was those of Perfect Grade.

Soon, several people came to report back.

"Reporting to Seventh Prince, Xu Leiting... he has refused Your Highness’s kindness!"

Yu Wen Tuo’s expression remained unchanged; he had anticipated Xu Leiting’s refusal, for he was after all the Young Master of the world’s foremost manor, how could he become a subordinate?

"I understand. The world’s premier manor?"

Yu Wen Tuo’s lips curved slightly as he glanced to the side, and Xu Leiting also cast a glance in this direction. Xu Leiting, a youth with an indifferent face, was the very opposite of Yu Wen Tuo’s flamboyance.

Yu Wen Tuo sneered. Unwilling to join his ranks meant the person could be seen as his adversary. After all, in this world, if you are not a friend, you are an enemy.

"Reporting to Seventh Prince, Hao Hai... he has refused your kindness!"

Hao Hai was a martial artist from Chen Country. Yu Wen Tuo furrowed his brows, surprised at the blatant disrespect.

His face filled with cold aggression, his eyes brimming with murderous intent, "If he cannot be of use to me, then just kill him."

"Reporting to Seventh Prince, Huang Tie of Perfect Grade wishes to serve Your Highness!"

Finally, some good news arrived. Yu Wen Tuo’s smile grew wider. Huang Tie, being backgroundless, from the large mountain villages, was the best kind of person to sway to his side, and he was determined to gain his loyalty.

"Your Highness, can you really make sure my parents have enough to eat? And also the villagers of our Buffalo Village, they go hungry every day, can you make sure they too can have their fill?"

Buffalo was a strapping young man in homespun clothes, having worked in the fields since he was young, he was slightly larger than an average man, but the looks he received from the others were filled with disdain.

Yu Wen Tuo burst into laughter, intending to pat Buffalo on the shoulder, but retracted his hand halfway at the sight of his greasy, unwashed clothes for who knows how many years. Observing Buffalo’s naive expression, Yu Wen Tuo assured him with a laugh: "Rest assured, Huang Tie, not only will I ensure your family is well-fed, but I’ll make the whole village feast on meat and fish, just as long as you dutifully work for this Prince."

At the mention of meat and fish, Buffalo’s eyes lit up, "Good, from now on, Buffalo’s life is yours, Your Highness. Don’t think of me as dumb, but I’ll be absolutely obedient, and I’m also quite strong. Whoever dares oppose Your Highness, I’ll be the first to crush them!"
