"Indeed."

"With Mr. Lin's talent and ability, Canglan Star is ultimately too small for you."

"It's just a medium-sized life planet, but my Xiangwen Group has a Rank 6 Evolver stationed there. That is the real stage suitable for Mr. Lin Yuan."

The blond middle-aged man continued with a smile, "Moreover, Lord Xiangwen highly values Mr. Lin and might even offer some guidance in the future."

Lord Xiangwen is the Rank 6 Evolver behind Xiangwen Group.

Guidance from a Rank 6 Evolver is a great opportunity for most Evolvers.

A Rank 6 Evolver has the power of destroying stars, the perspective from such a height, even casual advice, could lead to enlightenment for Rank 4 and Rank 5 Evolvers.

The blond middle-aged man believed it would be difficult for Lin Yuan to ignore this condition.

Lin Yuan's qualifications are indeed good, entering Rank 4 before the age of a hundred, with a high probability of becoming a Rank 5 Evolver in the future.

But that's all.

To advance further and break through to Rank 6, the hopes are still slim.

Therefore, guidance from a Rank 6 Evolver should not be missed.

"Sorry, I'm not interested in joining other forces," Lin Yuan shook his head.

What a joke? According to the blond middle-aged man, joining the Xiangwen Group would require signing many contracts.

Even requiring Lin Yuan to personally visit the Xiangwen Group's headquarters for review.

And those conditions offered by the blond middle-aged man might be attractive to an ordinary Rank 4 Evolver, but for Lin Yuan?

Moreover, Lin Yuan's true identity is the Thirteenth Peak Master of the Red Kun Lineage, almost equivalent to a prince of an empire, and one with real power at that.

Joining the Xiangwen Group would be like fighting for other star domains in a competition.

How absurd is that?

"Mr. Lin, won't you consider it at all?" the blond middle-aged man's face slightly changed.

Although the Xiangwen Group is not located in the Red Kun Star Domain, it is ultimately a major force with a Rank 6 Evolver.

Even if Lin Yuan has other options and won't join the Xiangwen Group, there's no need to be so direct.

A more tactful response would have made everyone look better.

"I said, I'm not interested, and I won't consider it further."

Lin Yuan shook his head, his main focus now is to step into Rank 6 as soon as possible.

Other matters unrelated to breakthroughs are trivial.

"Alright."

"Lord Xiangwen would probably be very disappointed to hear this."

The blond middle-aged man's face looked somewhat ugly as he stood up to leave.

"What's the matter?"

"Your Lord Xiangwen wouldn't come over to teach me a lesson, would he?"

Lin Yuan spoke with a sneer.

In the Human Alliance, the laws are complete, and the stronger the Evolver, the greater the restrictions.

Even those high and mighty evolutionary scholars can't act recklessly, let alone a Rank 6? If Lord Xiangwen dares to come to Canglan Star, showing intent against Lin Yuan.

Lin Yuan would report to the Goddess of Wisdom. (Mama goddess :D)

Can't beat you? Can't I still report you?

Of course, Lin Yuan thinks it's unlikely that Lord Xiangwen would come over.

He might not even know about Lin Yuan.

"I hope Mr. Lin's evolutionary path will always be smooth" the blond middle-aged man said with a grim face.

Meaning, Lin Yuan should not seek help from the Xiangwen Group in the future.

"Get out."

Lin Yuan directly kicked the blond middle-aged man out of his personal room. (How bold :D)

Once Lin Yuan steps into Rank 6, he can openly reveal his identity as the Thirteenth Peak Master of the Red Kun Lineage.

By then, forces at the level of the Xiangwen Group would be too eager to curry favor with Lin Yuan.

Personal space.

Lin Yuan sat alone on a wooden chair.

"Tournament"

Lin Yuan pondered.

The tournament is one of the hottest and most attention-grabbing activities of the Human Civilization Alliance.

And being hot and in the spotlight means huge traffic.

This gives rise to a series of industries involving huge amounts of money.

Why do groups like the Xiangwen Group, or other financial conglomerates, specifically cultivate teams to participate in various tournaments? Is it really just for honor?

Of course not!

As long as Evolvers can achieve a certain rank in the tournament, such as top hundred or top ten, they will attract a lot of attention.

At that time, just running an advertisement, or printing a group's logo on clothing, can bring immense popularity.

And advertising is just the most common way to monetize.

Each tournament also has 'betting' set up in advance.

Before the match, you choose a player you think will win, and if the result is as expected, you will win a certain amount of money at odds.

Of course.

To ensure fairness.

Under the detection of the Goddess of Wisdom, the possibility of 'fixed matches' is almost eliminated.

That's why major forces and conglomerates are very keen on finding potential Evolvers from inconspicuous medium-sized life planets, then supporting them to participate in tournaments.

These Evolvers from medium-sized life planets, with low exposure and no systematic training, if they receive support from major forces, their strength can significantly improve in a short time.

By the time the star domain-level tournament starts, they will enter as 'dark horses'.

After all, in the eyes of most citizens, a player who has already gained some fame and completed ten consecutive victories, twenty consecutive victories, facing an unknown opponent.

Most citizens would definitely bet on the former to win.

Apart from the above two methods.

The tournament has many ways to make money, the most enduring is to build a fan base.

In the current Human Alliance, the top Star-Falling Evolvers (Rank 6) have countless fans, many of whom are second-generation members of major forces.

Every move they make has an astonishing impact.

"So, in the eyes of those conglomerates, I already qualify as a 'dark horse'?"

Lin Yuan touched his chin and shook his head slightly.

In fact, this is indeed the case. In the last tournament, even if Lin Yuan only showed part of his strength, that was still Rank 4.

A Rank 4 Evolver under a hundred years old might be somewhat common on those prosperous higher life planets.

But on a medium-sized life planet like Canglan Star, it's almost impossible to find one in tens of thousands of years, let alone hundreds of thousands of years.

The education, cultivation, and resources of a medium-sized life planet are far inferior to those of higher life planets.

In such an environment, to step into Rank 4, whether it's through an adventure or luck, is not much weaker than those top evolutionary geniuses from higher life planets.

That's why Lin Yuan was valued by the Xiangwen Group, who specifically sent someone to invite him.

"The Goddess of Wisdom allows such things to happen because the invitations from major forces and conglomerates may restrict evolutionary geniuses, but they also cultivate these Evolvers."

"And subject to the laws of human civilization, the contracts signed between these conglomerates and evolutionary geniuses are not too excessive. Even in the case of breach of contract, the penalty is not astronomical."

Lin Yuan thought to himself.

There are gains and losses, this is the unwritten rule tacitly agreed upon by the Human Alliance.

Wanting to take advantage of one's genius status, disregarding contractual obligations, the three Goddesses would not support such behavior.

"My current soul compatibility"

Lin Yuan's consciousness returned to reality, carefully sensing.

"About 15% complete. At this rate, in at most two years, I should reach perfect compatibility and officially step into Rank 6."

Lin Yuan's face showed a smile.

Rank 6 has a special meaning for any Evolver.

Below Rank 6, no matter how strong a life form is, it's just a terrestrial life, dependent on the environment within a planet to survive.

Once leaving the planet, coming into space, it's difficult to continue living.

But at Rank 6, one can roam the starry sea, and all Rank 6 Evolvers are called space life forms.

Moreover, Rank 6 is a stage of qualitative change in strength.

Why does Lin Yuan only need to cultivate to Rank 6 to openly reveal his identity as the Thirteenth Peak Master of the Red Kun Lineage?

Because a Rank 6 Evolver is hard to assassinate, at least their means of preserving life far exceed those of Rank 5.

Generally, unless absolutely necessary, alien races would not assassinate a Rank 6 Evolver, as the cost is too great, equivalent to the cost of cultivating dozens of Rank 7 strong beings.

And it's still not guaranteed to kill that Rank 6 Evolver.

"The speed of soul compatibility transformation is not stable; it might be fast at the beginning and slow down later, or slow at the beginning and speed up later."

"My current compatibility transformation is still normal."

Lin Yuan continued to observe.

"However, as long as the soul compatibility has not reached one-tenth, it can be terminated, choosing another evolutionary path for compatibility"

After stepping into Rank 6, the cost of changing the evolutionary path will skyrocket.

But Lin Yuan, strictly speaking, has not yet stepped into Rank 6 and is still Rank 5.

"The many evolutionary paths I currently master, the most powerful is undoubtedly the Mysterious Yellow Evolutionary Path. If I use this path as the direction for soul transformation"

Lin Yuan pondered for a moment, then immediately abandoned this idea.

Even if the Mysterious Yellow Evolutionary Path is powerful, it's not created by Lin Yuan. Using this path as the fundamental evolutionary path, in the short term, the benefits might be great.

But in the long run, it might not be beneficial.

Lin Yuan is still more confident in the Martial Dao Evolutionary Path.

The Mysterious Yellow Evolutionary Path can be studied and practiced alongside, but it definitely cannot be the foundation.

Other evolutionary paths are the same, including the Mysterious Yellow Evolutionary Path, which can only serve as nourishment to perfect the Martial Dao Evolutionary Path.

"Let's continue to perfect the Martial Dao Evolutionary Path."

Lin Yuan's consciousness continued to delve into the Martial Dao Evolutionary Path.

In Lin Yuan's latest conception, the Martial Dao Evolutionary Path no longer has separate sections for Yin, Yang, and Yin-Yang.

Various attribute powers can be incorporated into the Martial Dao evolutionary system.

Evolver's expertise in any attribute can enter the Martial Dao for cultivation.

The Martial Dao should not be so small, but infinitely large.

Lin Yuan found that when perfecting the Martial Dao Evolutionary Path in this direction, the speed of soul compatibility transformation would gain a certain degree of improvement.

Next.

Lin Yuan continued to perfect the Martial Dao evolutionary system while observing the crimson 'stone' sent by the Red Kun Star Lord.

In his spare time he would reject invitations from financial conglomerates and forces from various star domains.

Apart from the Xiangwen Group noticing Lin Yuan's potential to become a 'dark horse', other forces naturally noticed as well.

In the interstellar era, even slightly powerful forces have their own think tanks, constantly planning actions based on information from human civilization and even other alien races, to best suit their own interests.

Lin Yuan, a Rank 4 under a hundred years old from a medium-sized life planet, with great potential and yet not costly, is naturally very 'welcome'.

At first, Lin Yuan still made time to meet them, clearly expressing his attitude.

But in the end, the frequency was too high.

Lin Yuan simply stopped meeting them, letting the AI assistant handle it.

"If I had said that I had passed the Seven Stars Cave trial from the beginning..."

Lin Yuan shook his head slightly.

If he had just passed the trial like Fang Qing, becoming an official member of the Red Kun Lineage, these forces would not invite him like this.

After all, as an official member of the Red Kun Lineage, how could there be any reason to work for other forces?

The Red Kun Lineage is the strongest force.

But in doing so, Lin Yuan would need to travel to the Red Kun main star with those who passed the trial like Fang Qing.

This is the normal process for joining the Red Kun Lineage in each session.

Lin Yuan being able to stay on Canglan Star all this time is entirely because he is the Thirteenth Peak Master, enjoying many privileges. Even the gift from the Red Kun Star Lord had to be specially delivered by the Shuntong Group at a cost of a hundred billion civilization coins.

That day.

Lin Yuan had just finished his cultivation.

The voice of the AI assistant came over.

"Master, the person visiting this time comes from the Black Prison family, the 3821st son of Black Prison Mo, a trusted follower under Black Prison Ao."

"The Black Prison family?" Lin Yuan's brows slightly furrowed.

The Black Prison family is a force in the Red Kun Star Domain, ranking in the top five among many forces outside the Red Kun Lineage.

The strongest in the Black Prison family, Black Prison Mo, is a being beyond Rank 6.

"The Black Prison family." Lin Yuan pondered for a while.

"Let's meet."

Lin Yuan could ignore the invitations from other financial conglomerates, firstly because most of them are Rank 6 forces.

And Lin Yuan, becoming a Rank 6 Evolver, was just a matter of time.

Secondly, most of the forces inviting Lin Yuan are from outside the Red Kun Star Domain, no need to be too close.

But the Black Prison family is different, as a local force in the Red Kun Star Domain, when Lin Yuan steps into Rank 6 and openly reveals his identity, he might need to interact with them.

Whoosh.

Lin Yuan's consciousness connected to the virtual world.

Personal space.

Lin Yuan agreed to enter.

A noble-looking elderly man in a black suit appeared before him.

"Beizhao, on behalf of my young master, Black Prison Ao, greets Mr. Lin Yuan."

The elderly man in a black suit, Beizhao, was very humble and slightly respectful.

He then stated the conditions for inviting Lin Yuan to join under Black Prison Ao.

"I'm not particularly interested in the tournament for the time being, sorry."

Lin Yuan tried to soften his tone.

"I see."

The elderly man in a black suit, Beizhao, showed no change in expression.

After standing up to leave, he disappeared on the spot.

"Quite reasonable?"

Lin Yuan nodded slightly.

The people sent by those forces to invite him, after being rejected, most would make some threats or hints.

Inside a magnificent palace.

Black Prison Ao sat on the throne, deep in thought.

At this moment, the figure of the elderly man in a black suit, Beizhao, appeared.

"Which contract level did that Lin Yuan choose?" Black Prison Ao said casually.

Before sending Beizhao to invite Lin Yuan, Black Prison Ao had set up five levels of contracts.

The higher the contract level, the more support for Lin Yuan.

But the restrictions would also be greater.

Lin Yuan could choose any contract level.

"Young master."

The elderly man in a black suit, Beizhao, bowed slightly.

"Lin Yuan declined the young master's invitation."

The elderly man in a black suit said in a low voice.

"Declined my invitation?"

On the throne, Black Prison Ao was slightly stunned.

He looked down at the elderly man in a black suit, Beizhao.
