123 Your Hero’s Favorability Toward You Has Increased

‘This is the back of the legendary giant beast?’

Su Wan and Xu Yuan arrived at the venue through a Dimensional Portal. What was in front of them was a lush, green world. The green grass under their feet was fragrant and soft. There was a dense growth of trees in the distance. There were green mountains and clear streams. Everything looked ordinary and tranquil.

If she didn’t know about the ancient beast, she would never believe that this place formed the back of a creature.

At this moment, an explanation of the relevant rules was visible in front of them.

“All participants will be randomly placed at a location in this arena. The Overlords can summon their troops through the Dimensional Portal. However, no one is allowed to leave the arena and return to their territory. If an Overlord does this, he or she will be immediately eliminated,” said Su Wan as she read the rules.

“Every Overlord will be provided with a gem…”

Su Wan looked at the blue gem that appeared in her hand. It looked very beautiful.

Su Wan turned to Xu Yuan. “Xu Yuan, this is called the Competition Gem. It is a mark of the Overlord’s participation in the competition.”

“The competition will last for three days and three nights. Once the time is up, points will be given depending on how many gems the Overlord has collected. The top three people will receive a special reward.”

Su Wan explained the rules to Xu Yuan. She glanced at the bag in her hand. She handled it delicately, as though she was afraid it might break.

“If we want to win, we will need to snatch the gems from the other Overlords.” Su Wan was full of energy at the thought.

However, Xu Yuan looked lazy. He didn’t care about the gems. He couldn’t care less about the whole competition.

He was here partly because he couldn’t stand Su Wan’s yammering. She threatened to carry him to the arena if he continued to sleep. So, he tagged along.

The other reason was to collect Territory Cores to fill his Chaos Realm. As long as this goal was fulfilled even to an extent, he couldn’t care less about the winners and losers.

Su Wan was not in the mood to coddle him for now. She had seen Xu Yuan being energetic only once during the mock tournament. That was because he had a hidden agenda.

Su Wan needed to stay alert. If Xu Yuan was unusually spirited, it would only mean he had some hidden motive. Su Wan didn’t have time to think about that right now.

Su Wan thought about it for a while and handed the gem to Xu Yuan. “Xu Yuan, I will let you keep this.”

This was a sign of her sincerity. She trusted him enough to put him in charge of her Competition Gem. She hoped he could see her sincerity.

However, Su Wan did have another reason for doing this. She believed that the gem would be safer with him than with her. She knew that he was stronger than he let others believe. He had saved her life, after all.

She placed the gem in his hands. Either way, Su Wan felt that this was a good idea. It would show Xu Yuan how much she trusted him, and the gem would be safer in his hands.

Su Wan was unaware that Xu Yuan had already guessed her thoughts. The White Dragon Saint didn’t know what was in her mind, but Xu Yuan knew her well. He could read her intentions with just one look at her face.

Prompts appeared in Su Wan’s mind.

[Your hero’s favorability toward you has increased.]

[Your hero’s favorability toward you has increased.]

[Your hero’s favorability toward you has increased.]

The series of prompts shocked Su Wan. She hadn’t expected that her simple decision could increase her favorability to such an extent.

The favorability scale was still increasing. 70… 90… 100…

It reached 1000!

Su Wan realized that she had been played. How could the favorability increase to 1000 suddenly?

‘This is not normal at all!’

Su Wan looked at Xu Yuan. He looked at her innocently. She recalled that he was a master manipulator. He could hide everything from her. So, was it any difficult for him to create a fake scale? He must have tampered with the interface!

Su Wan gritted her teeth. She felt that she might have entrusted the task to the wrong person. She had good intentions and yet, Xu Yuan tricked her in this manner!

Su Wan calmed herself. She felt that she might need to have a talk with her hero. If there was any misunderstanding between them in the competition, it would definitely affect their teamwork and the outcome of the competition.

Xu Yuan stared at the gem in his claw. ‘The material doesn’t seem like anything I have encountered before…’

He activated the True Eye of The Demon Dragon to analyze it. With this ability, he could trace everything that had happened in the past twenty-four hours.

Since Xu Yuan had grown stronger than before, his ability was also more powerful. The True Eye of The Demon Dragon could trace the past of an object infinitely. There was no limit of twenty-four hours, anymore.

It now depended on how much energy Xu Yuan would spend on the ability. If he spent more energy, he would be able to look further into the past.

When he activated the ability, something like a clock appeared in his mind. The needle moved, and time reversed.

“As expected of the master!” exclaimed the White Dragon Saint. “The ability to see through time is an ability we can’t even dream about!”

Su Wan, who was watching, was also stunned. She had discovered some of Xu Yuan’s abilities in the past few days. But she hadn’t expected him to be so powerful.

She had always believed that Xu Yuan had a strong auxiliary ability that made the other troops, and even the White Dragon Saint, bow in front of him. Whenever Xu Yuan used his ability, the attributes of the other troops skyrocketed.

This situation convinced Su Wan further of her theory. She didn’t sense any threatening or offensive power from Xu Yuan. This ability was also a very strong supporting ability.

Xu Yuan saw the past of the Competition gem that he held in his hand. Time continued to rewind. He could see how the Competition Gems were created.
