Chapter 943: Chapter 11: Outperforming Each Other in Acting (Part 2)
In the center of the arena, Xu Mo and Erin Uranos landed on the ground. Erin Uranos spoke, “Congratulations, Mr. Xu Mo.”
Ten consecutive victories, and able to receive a large reward.
Xu Mo smiled and nodded in response. The two walked backstage together, and Xu Mo noticed that the Angel’s Wings on the other side had disappeared, marveling at its magic.
The Uranos Arena had a passage directly leading to the central area, where the decor was extremely luxurious. A group of people was coming this way, and it was none other than the members of the Uranos Family who were previously in the VIP room.
The leader was a middle-aged man, Hodge Uranos, and the young man beside him was Nois Uranos.
Hodge and Nois were respectively Erin’s father and brother. They were not directly in charge of the Uranos Arena but had come to watch today.
“Young and capable, congratulations, Mr. Xu Mo. I am Erin’s father, Hodge Uranos.” Hodge stepped forward to shake hands with Xu Mo.
“Thank you.” Xu Mo had already taken off his mask, and it could be seen that he was probably not yet twenty-five, which surprised Hodge quite a bit.
“Next, it’s time to claim the reward. Does Mr. Xu Mo want funds or an equivalent item?” Hodge asked.
“Can I see what items are available first?” Xu Mo inquired.
“Of course.” Hodge nodded, glanced at his secretary, and then said, “Please, Mr. Xu Mo.”
The two parties sat down in a place where a virtual screen appeared in front of them, showing various items, each with marked prices.
All sorts of weapons, genetic medicines, and combat skills were available, each priced differently. Many did not reach the price of ten billion Silver Star Coins.
“Mr. Xu Mo can also mix and match, a certain amount of funds and some items, or several items,” Hodge said.
“Let me take a look.” Xu Mo said.
“No rush, Mr. Xu Mo can take his time considering,” Hodge remarked. “Besides, there is a personal question I would like to ask Mr. Xu Mo, I hope it wouldn’t be presumptuous.”
“Go ahead, Mr. Hodge,” Xu Mo knew that the Uranos Family would be curious about his identity, and he had been waiting for this moment to come.
Being proactive versus reactive, there is a difference.
“Mr. Xu Mo, will you be participating in the Mystic God Temple selection tomorrow? I’m curious which force you represent,” Hodge asked. Everyone around looked at Xu Mo, filled with curiosity.
Previously, they all thought Xu Mo was here to cause trouble, but seeing Xu Mo’s calm demeanor after victory with no other forces stepping up, they started doubting their assumptions.
“To be honest, Mr. Hodge, I didn’t get a recommendation quota for the Mystic God Temple, I represent no force,” Xu Mo’s voice was somewhat downcast, as if he was truly disappointed.
“How can that be??” Hodge showed a faint surprise, and those around him glanced at each other.
“With Mr. Xu Mo’s combat power, how could you not receive a recommendation quota?” Erin Uranos, who had been defeated by Xu Mo, spoke up, looking quite astonished.
Xu Mo said he didn’t get it, not that he didn’t want to participate, which is fundamentally different, but how could he not get it??
“It is indeed true.” Xu Mo sighed.
Hodge and others showed strange expressions. With Xu Mo’s strength and the recommendation quota, many forces would scramble to offer, even promise benefits, to have him represent their force in the Mystic God Temple selection.
“Mr. Xu Mo, if I may ask, why is that?” Hodge questioned, “I observed Mr. Xu Mo’s combat power, obtaining a recommendation quota should be a breeze. If our Uranos Family had known about Mr. Xu Mo, we would certainly have invited him.”
“It’s quite embarrassing to say,”
Xu Mo smiled wryly and shook his head, starting to showcase his acting skills, keeping everyone on edge.
Hodge and the others were already itching with curiosity, but they saw Xu Mo raise his head slowly, looking at Hodge, “To be honest, I came from another star just to join the Mystic God Temple. Hence, through an introduction, I entered Tis Palace, and Tis Palace initially promised me the recommendation quota.”
“But later, on the last day, Tis Palace seemed to have invited Saye to represent them in the Mystic God Temple selection, and due to insufficient quotas, my friends and I had our quotas directly stripped by Tis Palace. It was just at the time of the submission of the list, and all the major Transcendent forces no longer had quotas, so I missed out.”
“This…”
Hodge and the members of the Uranos Family present were shocked by Xu Mo’s words.
Xu Mo, had his recommendation quota directly stripped by Tis Palace?
And it was because of Saye?
This… is indeed coincidental.
Previously, they almost managed to secure Saye, having the best chance, but at the last moment, Tis Palace upped their offers and snatched Saye away.
By a twist of fate, because of Saye, Xu Mo’s quota was stripped by Tis Palace.
“This is outrageous.”
Hodge suddenly roared in anger, “Tis Palace promised you the recommendation quota and directly stripped it at the last moment, shameless.”
Xu Mo watched Hodge’s furious expression, it seemed they were united against a common enemy.
This acting, almost matching mine…
“With Mr. Xu Mo’s strength, how could Tis Palace strip your quota?” Nois Uranos asked curiously from the side.
“I met a senior at Tis Palace who applied for the recommendation quota for me, and I hadn’t showcased my strength in front of others,” Xu Mo said.
Everyone then suddenly realized, Tis Palace, so formidable!
If Tis Palace knew of Xu Mo’s combat power, who knows what they would think.
“No matter how you look at it, Tis Palace’s handling of this matter is utterly disgraceful, directly stripping your quota, especially at the most critical moment, causing you to miss this Mystic God Temple selection,” Hodge still appeared angry, “The Mystic God Temple selection starts tomorrow, the recommendation quotas have been confirmed and certified, there is no room for turning back, this is a major grievance.”
Xu Mo sighed, “I know, but Tis Palace is powerful, there’s nothing I can do. As for the Mystic God Temple selection, there’s no chance this year. I came to the Uranos Arena hoping to enhance my strength a bit and earn some funds, to leave Chloe Star and see if there’s an opportunity to join other top Transcendent forces.”
Upon hearing Xu Mo’s words, Hodge understood that Xu Mo aimed for a cultivation holy land like the Mystic God Temple. Therefore, the Uranos Family was not considered a potential joining option, with his strength, it was inevitable that top talents would enter top-tier cultivation lands.
“Mr. Xu Mo, are you just going to leave, able to swallow this anger?” Nois asked.
“Even if I can’t swallow it, what can I do,” Xu Mo sighed, “Mr. Hodge, missing the Mystic God Temple selection is settled, but on the day the Mystic God Temple announces the selection results and confirms the quotas, is there any chance for me?”
Hodge was taken aback, Xu Mo’s words reminded him.
“There is.” Hodge’s eyes lit up, he said, “There have been such precedents before. Someone exceptionally outstanding missed the Mystic God Temple selection but was specially admitted on the day the results were announced.”
The premise is to be outstanding enough.
Thinking of this, Hodge was quite moved. Xu Mo had enough reason; he was played out of a quota by Tis Palace, as long as he displayed adequate strength, it’s not impossible for the Mystic God Temple to make an exception.
“It’s possible,” Hodge became increasingly excited, seeing this as an opportunity.
Besides, it could be a way to avenge Tis Palace for poaching people, to publicly criticize what they did.
“I am unclear about my combat power level, is there a chance for the Mystic God Temple to make an exception?” Xu Mo asked. In fact, this was Ye Qingdie’s idea, who had found out someone had entered the Mystic God Temple through such a method before.
Thus, she instructed Xu Mo to seek help from the Uranos Family.
“How would we know without trying?” Hodge remarked, even if it failed, there was nothing to lose.
“Hmm.” Xu Mo nodded, “If this path doesn’t work, I’ll leave Chloe Star.”
He said, looking at the screen, carefully selecting.
“Mr. Xu Mo, no need to look at these, I’ll switch a batch for you to choose from,” Hodge stated.
Hearing Hodge’s words, Xu Mo understood.
This relationship is drawing closer, isn’t it?
Better things are about to come out.
