But what use is knowing? Do they have any other choice?
Let alone the shock instilled by the abilities Ao Yuan displayed in the United States.
What they witnessed today through the livestream alone was something they could not ignore.
All the demon beasts within Great Xia were visiting Ao Yuan.
This fact alone was enough to illustrate Ao Yuan's status!
Meanwhile, in the United States!
Inside a secret research laboratory.
"How is the research on the blood of that divine dragon progressing?" a middle-aged man in a sealed protective suit asked in a muffled voice.
"The research is nearing completion."
"It's estimated that within another half a year, our United States' ultimate weapon will be fully developed!"
"Half a year! No!"
The middle-aged man muttered to himself, then his expression sharpened as he declared, "One month! I need to see your results in one month!"
"Otherwise, you will have no reason to exist!"
"Yes!"
The faces of the researchers changed, and they immediately nodded in understanding.
"My darling, once you appear, even that dragon from Great Xia will be no match for you!"
"He's a copy, you are the original!"
The middle-aged man slightly raised his eyes to look ahead.
Instantly, his expression was filled with fanaticism.
Before him stood a colossal skeleton.
The entire skeleton was encased within a glass conductor.
Liquid was continuously being infused into the skeleton from within the conductor.
As the infusion progressed, the stark white bones gradually turned a bizarre blood-red.
At this moment, they seemed to hear a roar like thunder in their ears.
The situation here was unknown to the world.
And the next morning.
In Dai Xiaomei's livestream room.
She hadn't even started her broadcast, but millions of viewers had already gathered.
This wasn't because they were bored and restless.
It was because yesterday, after Bai Feng hung up the phone with Ao Yuan, he announced the martial arts tournament organized by Ao Yuan.
And Dai Xiaomei would be broadcasting it live!
This instantly ignited the interest of netizens in Great Xia and even those abroad.
After all.
Watching demon beasts compete wasn't just about curiosity.
It was also about allowing them to gain a deeper understanding of the existence and ferocity of demon beasts.
"First, first, first!"
"Dai Xiaomei, hurry up and stream, how long has it been already?"
"What's going on?"
"Open the door, open the door, open the door! I have to say it three times!"
"If you don't open the door, Dai Dai won't like you anymore, Dai Xiaomei~"
"No way, no way, there can't be a streamer this lazy, not streaming yet."
"Damn, it's on! You're amazing, brother upstairs!"
...
Just then, the initially dark screen suddenly lit up.
Following that, Dai Xiaomei and Mozi appeared within the frame.
Clearly.
It was the two of them who would be hosting this martial arts tournament.
"Hello, esteemed viewers."
"It's really been a long time!"
Dai Xiaomei and Mozi grinned and waved at the camera.
"Mmm~"
"This time, it's our first time hosting a martial arts tournament, Dai Dai."
"You two old women, hurry up and get out of the way!"
"I want to see Dai Dai, I want to see the demon kings!"
"Who wants to see you? Get out of the way for me!"
"What's so great about you? Do I want to see you?"
"Two old women!!"
...
Seeing the comments in the livestream.
Dai Xiaomei and Mozi's smiles stiffened.
A thousand unspoken curses passed through their hearts.
You must know that before the broadcast even started.
They had already been in the livestream room and had naturally seen the comments.
This was precisely why they had rushed to start the broadcast.
But they never expected that.
Once the broadcast began, the netizens would completely change their tune.
"Phew, phew, phew!"
Although they were upset, Dai Xiaomei and Mozi understood that it wasn't the viewers' fault.
After all, compared to the numerous demon kings and Ao Yuan, they knew that their own charisma was indeed somewhat lacking.
"Everyone, come, let us show you the participating demon kings of this martial arts tournament!"
As Dai Xiaomei's voice rang out, she gently turned the camera.
On the high platform.
Already seated were demon kings exuding terrifying auras.
The Python King coiled on his seat, his tongue flicking out with a cold gleam.
The Tiger King, with its colorful stripes, was curled up on its chair, appearing lazy.
It looked like a cute big cat, but its giant paws, the size of a human head, and its sharp fangs, occasionally revealed when it opened its mouth, were impossible to ignore.
These two demon beasts stunned the audience.
They felt that as expected of demon kings, their presence was truly formidable.
They left comments of admiration in the livestream one after another.
But as the camera panned further, all the viewers couldn't help but burst into laughter.
The first to appear was the Golden-Haired Monkey.
He was like a viewer engrossed in watching a show, reclining on his chair, with a bottle of happiness in one hand and potato chips in the other, his eyes fixed forward.
"Is this the legendary Golden-Haired Monkey King? Hahaha!"
"No wonder I follow his Weibo account, his posts are always different from other demon kings."
"So, he's naturally like this."
"The Golden-Haired Monkey makes me feel like I could defeat him."
"Brother, you're not the first!"
...
And upon seeing the Sparrow King who appeared later.
Seeing his dejected expression, all the netizens couldn't help but laugh.
The reason was simple.
Yesterday, the Sparrow King had posted on Weibo, stating that the water in Tianchi was exceptionally fun.
Following that.
Various demon kings had also posted.
And their posts were all about their reflections on coming to the Dragon Palace, and how their strength had improved, and so on.
These two starkly contrasting scenes directly caused the netizens to go wild.
While others were improving their strength, the Sparrow King was playing in the water.
This single sentence caused many netizens to roar with laughter.
And judging by the Sparrow King's current demeanor.
It was evident that.
He was still sulking to himself, clearly not having recovered.
"I see Ao Guang!"
Just then, a comment appeared in the livestream, drawing everyone's attention.
Ao Guang was Ao Yuan's subordinate, and with his appearance.
It was clear that Ao Yuan would appear soon!
But when the camera panned, Ao Yuan's figure was nowhere to be seen.
"??? Where is Dai Dai? Why hasn't Dai Dai appeared yet?"
"Where is the Dai Dai I want to see?"
"Dai Xiaomei, did you hide Dai Dai?"
"Dai Dai, my Dai Dai, come out quickly!"
"Here, here!"
Amidst everyone's urging, Ao Guang did not disappoint.
His figure slowly flew over from a distance.
Upon seeing him, the bodies of all the beasts present couldn't help but become solemn.
Their eyes were fixed on Ao Yuan as he walked step by step.
The arena became utterly silent.
When Ao Yuan flew to the high platform, he surveyed the surroundings, placed his dragon claws down, and let out a high-pitched cry.
"I declare!"
"The martial arts tournament hereby begins!"
Boom!
As these words were spoken.
The entire venue erupted!
...
