Chapter 411: Chapter 398 Qualification!_1

Before the Giant Wood Ancient City, countless Mountain Hawk Tribe warriors were gathered atop the city wall, flanked by twenty or thirty centurion-level warriors. Their expressions changed upon seeing the bronze battle chariot, drawn by two two-starred Star Beasts - Snow Wolves.

A mighty warrior stood beside them, one whose power had even their chiefs bowing their heads, such strength could topple their Mountain Hawk Battle Division, not necessarily through violence, but by a smooth takeover that would lead to the complete subjugation of the Mountain Hawk Tribe.

The icy gaze of Blood Fiend held contempt for the somewhat timid warriors before him; their reactions were entirely expected by the Gu Yuan Tribe.

The Chief was right; only strength could influence these tribes, so used to bowing and bending. Now that the demon tribe had been annihilated, the pressure that was the great mountain on these tribes had lightened, making them somewhat overconfident. If that was the case, the Gu Yuan Tribe was ready to jolt them back to reality, reminding them that there were matters they couldn’t meddle with.

The Human Realm flourished in the wake of spilled blood; Azure blood had dried up long ago, leaving behind tales of might. Our present world and land to live and grow are built upon the sacrifice and struggle of our ancestors in the vast wilderness.

Perhaps the human tribes have held the vast wilderness for too long that the tribal leaders have lost their fighting spirit. They bow to the oppressive demon tribes, their human blood had cooled, their proud legends forgotten, eroded away by the endless passage of time, from generation to generation.

"Esteemed leaders of the Mountain Hawk Tribe, Chief Greenwood, the Phoenix Mountain Tribe, Chief Fengxiang, and the Green Sea Tribe, Chief Lu Ming. I come bearing important matters to discuss with your tribes. Fortunately, all three of you are here, saving me the trouble of traveling!"

Seeing leaders from the two other tribes at Mountain Hawk Tribe, Blood Fiend knew something was up. However, he didn’t care. In this vast wilderness, power talked. The strength of the Gu Yuan Tribe was enough to crush these three tribes, and this was the reality.

Upon his appearance, Blood Fiend had violently killed several of the Mountain Hawk Tribe warriors, even leaving one of the thousand-soldier commanders, a strong warrior, disabled. This had deeply concerned Greenwood, for any thousand-soldier commander within Blood Refining Realm was a valued asset to the Mountain Hawk Tribe.

Yet at this moment, he had to suppress his anger and said, "Elder Blood Fiend, please enter the city. I apologize if our hospitality is lacking!"

To be so submissive, even when their people were killed, was a horrifying reality. It’s no wonder the demon tribes acted so arrogantly, wreaking havoc across the land. They had put up with it for a long time. Over the centuries, countless members of their tribes had fallen prey to the demons, so it seemed they didn’t care about the handful who fell today.

"Enough!"

Blood Fiend indifferently waved his hand at the leaders from the three tribes. Wearing a playful smile, he looked over at everyone before his gaze rested on the three tribal chiefs. "I only have one important matter to discuss with all three tribes, there’s no need for pleasantries! Now that everything is decided, I need to report back to the chief!"

It’s coming!

Greenwood and the others immediately felt a tightness in their chests as their eyes flickered with resentment. They, as leaders of their respective tribes, held the same status as the chief of the Gu Yuan Tribe, yet they were clearly being looked down upon.

In the end, it was still Greenwood, after hundreds of years of ups and downs, understood a basic principle of survival in the vast wilderness – strength was paramount; fairness was a matter of might.

"What brings Elder Blood here?"

Boom!

In the next moment, Blood Fiend stretched out his hand and grabbed at the void, causing the three-foot-high stone tablet, which had fallen in front of the Great Hall in the Ancient City, to vibrate constantly. In a blink of an eye, it turned into a streak of light and flew back to his hand.

The gigantic stone tablet was shaped like a bar, as black as ink. At the top, there were four ancient characters, ’North Forest is the boundary’, and below were the four characters, ’Gu Yuan Tribe.’

This is the Realm Stone!

Only now did the onlookers pay attention to this massive stone tablet. The human world was vast and boundless. In some places, there might be no signs of life for thousands of miles, whilst in others, three major tribes might settle within three to four thousand miles of each other. From time to time, disputes arose over resources and territory, hence the practice of setting boundaries with pillars.

Patting the Realm Stone lightly, Blood Fiend gave Greenwood and his companions another glance. A playful smile crossed his face as he said, "This is nothing big. My Gu Yuan Battle Division arrived in the Dragon Fall Territory, slaying the demon tribe that had plagued the vast wilderness for thousands of years according to the great righteousness of the human tribe and expanded our territory. Today, I am here on behalf of the tribe’s chief, to fix the boundaries of our four tribes. From today onwards, the land north of the Northern Forest Mountains is the territory of the Gu Yuan Tribe. How you want to delineate the land south of the Northern Forest Mountains is up to you, and we will not interfere."

What?!

Blood Fiend’s words immediately aroused anger in the three tribal chiefs. The land north of the Northern Forest Mountains was the power center of the original demon tribe. For thousands of years, this land had been sparsely populated with a countless number of treasure medicines and ore deposits, which the three tribes longed to seize for themselves.

Previously, the land was occupied by the demon tribes, and the three tribes dared not act rashly. But now that the demon tribes had been annihilated, the tribes saw the land as no man’s land. No matter who wiped out the demon tribes, the vast wilderness had become unclaimed land. Even if the Gu Yuan Tribe had achieved incredible feats by annihilating the demon tribes, could they really monopolize this vast wilderness that stretched thousands of miles?

Setting the Northern Forest Mountains as the boundary and leaving the southern part to the three tribes meant that this land, rich in treasure medicines and ore deposits, would completely belong to the Gu Yuan Tribe. Once the boundaries were decided, the other tribes would have no chance to take advantage of the vast resources in the region.

"Do the three tribal chiefs have anything to say?"

All of their actions were seen by Blood Fiend, but he did not care.

"Your Gu Yuan Tribe is too overbearing. This vast wilderness was originally occupied by the demon tribe. Now that they have been wiped out, the land has become ownerless. Every tribe has the right to hunt and gather here. You want to monopolize this land? Aren’t you afraid of being attacked by the many tribes of the vast wilderness?"

"Ha ha!" Blood Fiend burst into cold laughter. "We, the Gu Yuan Tribe, have the strength to control this land, thousands of miles in circumference. Furthermore, this wilderness was reclaimed from the demon tribe by many of our brave tribesmen who fought in blood-soaked arenas, laying down their lives for it. Who else among the countless human tribes deserves the right to occupy this land more than the Gu Yuan Tribe?"

"Do you three big tribes think you have that right? Since you acknowledge that this land is the territory of our human tribe, why then did you turn a blind eye to the demon tribe’s tyranny, bowing and bending down, becoming their slaves and food? Now that the demon tribe has been wiped out, you are jumping out claiming that this wilderness is the ancestral land of the human tribe. Is this the human righteousness passed down from generation to generation by your three big tribes?!"
