In the square of the Heavenly King Country, a high platform had been erected at its center, surrounded by a sea of people. They were not only from the Heavenly King Country but also included delegates from other kingdoms, all worried about their own performance.

For example, if the Xiuyuan Country performed poorly and failed to secure even a single star, it would be demoted from a kingdom to a village. Its ministers would lose their official titles, becoming mere elders with slightly higher status. As a village, it would be forbidden to have an army, and its merchants would have to offer substantial concessions when doing business abroad.

The day of the power ranking assessment was of the utmost importance, affecting the very lives of the common people. If a kingdom could gain another star, its territory would increase and its military could be expanded. Its status would naturally be elevated as well. If its star rating decreased, however, it would be terrible news.

"Look, that’s Bai Xiangqian, the monarch of the White Dragon Country, a Two-Star kingdom from the Demon King Domain!" At that moment, a voice rose from the crowd. The people parted to make way for a procession that was slowly approaching.

Leading them was a middle-aged man in his thirties with unnaturally pale skin. When he spoke, a serpentine tongue flicked out, startling everyone. What kind of dragon is this? He’s clearly a white snake!

Upon seeing this man, Xiao Shimin immediately went up to greet him. Cupping his fist, he smiled and said, "Brother Bai, I trust you’ve been well."

"We are both kings. Why be so courteous?" Bai Xiangqian smiled back. "You sent an invitation, so how could I not come?"

"Thank you," Xiao Shimin replied quickly.

Drawing closer, Bai Xiangqian whispered, "You want me to frame someone as a demon? Heh, that won’t be easy."

Xiao Shimin nodded but immediately called out, "Guards, bring the item I’ve prepared!"

At his command, a group of guards carried a large chest forward.

"What is this?" Bai Xiangqian asked, puzzled.

"Heh, the monarch of the Vole Kingdom," Xiao Shimin whispered. "I know you snakes love to eat voles, but as a fellow Two-Star Power in the Monster Race, you can’t just eat someone without reason, or it would lead to gossip. So, I acted on your behalf."

Bai Xiangqian’s tongue flicked out again. "My thanks."

The cultivation method of the Monster Race relied on consumption. It was common for its members to cannibalize each other in secret. However, no one would do so openly, because the War Emperor, who had established the laws for the Monster Race, would not allow it. The War Emperor was not an Immortal Emperor, but he was one of the few great existences just beneath them.

Xiao Shimin shook his head and smiled gently. "There’s no need for thanks. As long as you help me in return, that will be enough."

Bai Xiangqian nodded in agreement and then led his White Dragon Country’s Snake Soldiers up to the viewing platform.

No sooner had Bai Xiangqian left than another group arrived. Next to the Tianlong Domain were the Demon King Domain and the Artifact Domain, and these new arrivals were from the latter. They were all women in their twenties, each holding a fan. They were from the Fan Sect.

"The Fan Sect? The one that specializes in making fans?" someone in the crowd exclaimed, having recognized them.
