"Brother Xu, how confident are you about this selection process?"
A member of the Sea Race, clad in a splendid robe and whose large head was covered in black and yellow tiger stripes, his petite body similar to a deformed child, was continuously blowing bubbles as he spoke to a slender and tall figure in front of him.
The figure turned around revealing a mouth full of sharp, fanged teeth, and a constantly moving snake tongue. The voice was low and harsh: "Probably around thirty to forty percent! Although the odds aren't great, I still have to try. After all, the benefits within the Imperial Palace are famously good!"
The slender and tall figure was none other than Xu Mu, who had transformed into a member of the Black Water Xuan Snake Clan.
The deepness in his voice wasn't intentional, but rather a result of merging with the Black Water Xuan Snake bloodline, which had changed his voice to such effect.
