CHAPTER 231 ENTERING THE GRAND VOID MANOR (PART ONE)

Talent City had seven major alliances. Historically, they were said to have been founded by grand

warriors from all over the continent in the olden days. The Skywalker Alliance was one of them.

Besides, there were a plethora of other alliances that were comparatively less powerful. The alliances

were established by cultivators at the supreme stage of the Wonder Realm who were one step away

from the Grand Realm.

All these alliances had one common goal—to recruit superior talents and convince them to join them.

When the Skywalker Alliance announced their title, they attracted the attention of quite a few people

who had no hope in winning over Darren anymore. That was because Skywalker Alliance was ranked

among the top three most powerful alliances. It was said that it had an extremely powerful grand

warrior who entered the Grand Realm hundreds of years ago.

But grand warriors never came into sight easily. The truth behind whether these powerful alliances

were really supported by grand warriors was a mystery to normal people.

On seeing that the powerful young man refused Skywalker Alliance's invitation, the bystanders all

thought that he was simply being silly. Or perhaps, he rejected the offer because he had never heard of

their reputation! There was a huge number of advantages associated with joining the Skywalker

Alliance, and the most apparent one was that few people dared to cross their members in Talent City.

"Hey bro, you've just made the mistake of provoking a superior talent! Why not join our Blue Alliance?

We will definitely do our utmost to protect you. Think about it and don't make decisions on impulse."

"No, no, our Luce Alliance also has a superior talent who ranked in the top one hundred. You do not

need to be afraid of the Dean guy as long as you're willing to join us. We'll have your back!"

Darren insisted on rejecting every offer he received, but there were always people who were unwilling

to give up easily and kept hounding Darren with invitations. They seemed to be desperate for

members.

"He refused to join us," the young girl of the Skywalker Alliance, gazing at Darren's receding figure,

said with disappointment.

"Fair enough. If it were you, you would not have given your consent immediately either when asked to

join some force all of a sudden. What we need to do now is to become acquainted with him, so that it exclusive content.

will become much easier to invite him to join us again."

"I didn't think about it that way. I've grown up knowing about the Alliance, so it never occurred to me to

be suspicious. You made a great point." The young girl nodded thoughtfully.

"Humph, what a silly kid. Who gave him the guts to refuse the invitation from our Dragon Alliance!"

People from the other force were staring at Darren resentfully.

This Dragon Alliance was also quite a powerful force, and it was ranked the second among the seven

largest alliances.

None of the alliances succeeded in persuading Darren to join them, and soon his figure disappeared

out of sight completely. Most of these forces were outraged by Darren's behavior. They thought that the

young man was excessively haughty and stuck-up.

"Sir, sir, wait. Why did you reject the offers to join the Skywalker Alliance and Dragon Alliance?" Ron

followed Darren the whole way. By provoking a superior talent's brother while trying to save Ron,

Darren had gotten himself in quite a bit of trouble. 'Only by joining one of these large forces will he be

protected. They will keep him safe, ' thought Ron. Of course, this was based on his limited perception

of the world.

"Humph, they are just nobodies in the end. It does not matter whether I join them or not," Darren smiled

drily and said.

This time, he was determined to fight his way into the top one hundred ranks of the Talent Roll.

According to Mathew, if he succeeded in this goal, perhaps all the grand warriors would come to him in

person to negotiate some terms and conditions. After that, the benefits he would receive would

definitely be larger and easier to attain.

As for that Dean guy, he was merely ranked the ninety-second on the Talent Roll. Darren already

checked the Talent Roll before, and all those who was ranked above the ninety-first only possessed

strength powerful enough to kill cultivators at the top level of middle stage of the Wonder Realm. What

could he possibly be afraid of? He knew that even if he were to lose a fight against Dean, there was

solid certainty that he could successfully escape. But the best-case scenario was that if he actually got

into a fight, he still stood a good chance of winning, considering how strong his body had become.

"Emm..." Ron was speechless, not knowing what to say. Although Darren's words did seem too

arrogant to him, he dared not doubt this man just for rejecting the offers of the Alliances. In the first

place, it was shocking enough for him to witness that Darren defeated a Wonder Realm cultivator albeit

the fact that he was still at the Mysterious Realm. This young man was not predictable and certainly did

not adhere to the conventions of the land.

"Forgive me, sir. I venture to ask if you are a top five hundred talent on the Talent Roll?"

"Eh? Why do you need to know so many details?"

"If you really are one of the top five hundred superior talents, it is not necessary for you to enter any of

those forces. You can go to the Grand Void Manor directly. And after one month, all the superior talents

of these forces tried to recruit will gather in the Grand Void Manor to participate in the assessment. You

can go there directly by that time," Ron said.

"Assessment? I do not want to participate in any assessment. I only want to go to the Talent Battle

Ring." Darren had been critically injured before, and he assimilated so much spiritual energy that his

stage was not far away from the Wonder Realm. It was very urgent for him to procure the needed

Primitive Stones, so he had to save time as much as possible.
