Lein's Island, Life City
Lein saw the system announcement that had just appeared. He read it carefully, paying attention to every detail.
The first thing he noticed was the removal of regional boundaries, meaning that all humans on Earth could now meet. In other words, the strong individuals from the previous event would be facing him. He was very curious about how powerful these people were.
Deep down, Lein also wanted to duplicate the items they had obtained as the top three in the previous event.
Lein then shifted his gaze to the system panel. The system indicated that regional chat had been removed and replaced with the Blue Planet Human Race chat.
[Blue Planet Human Race]
- (William Alexander: Supreme Overlord) Earth Paradise Alliance is recruiting individuals with B-S rank talents. Regardless of your country, race, or gender, as long as you have an A-rank talent or higher, you will be accepted. S-rank talents will become core members.
- (Bai Qi: Supreme Overlord) Hello everyone, we welcome all. Come and grow together with the Eternal Life Sect. For Chinese citizens, join us and receive free level 10 equipment.
- (Vladimir Nova: Supreme Overlord) For sovereign with a total status of over 1000, the King of Hell Alliance is opening opportunities.
- Jackson: Awesome, all humans can finally join. Dad, I'm in region #5622. Add me as a friend.
- Usami: Cherry Blossom Market is selling high-level medicine. Come and save your precious life.
- Meng Hao: Abyssal Vanguard Sect is accepting disciples.
- Haruka: Did any of you find a portal appearing on your island? Where do these portals lead?...
- Diki: My friend already entered the portal, but he hasn't returned...
- Xiao Yu: Look at the top 3 chats, their names are glowing. What's with the titles after their names? Do they have any real effect?...
- Hubert: The rewards for the top 3 this time seem several times crazier than the previous event. What does it feel like to be in the top 3?...
Most people felt happy because now all humans could meet and were no longer restricted as before. They were almost all talking about the ongoing event.
A very striking and different feature of the chat this time was the three golden chats at the top. The three names belonged to the top three in the previous event. Their chats never moved down like banner notifications. Even their messages had golden borders and dragon icon at the ends.
"Sigh..."
Seeing the arrogant benefits provided by the system, Lein could only sigh. He remembered how arrogant he was to compete with those people without conducting any investigation on them.
"Patience... patience..."
He reassured himself several times before finally calming down. He then shifted his gaze to the leaderboard.
[Event Rank]
- Top 1-3: Super Territory Artifact, 100 million crystals, epic chest, ancestral dragon's nest.
- Top 4-10: Regular Territory Artifact, 10 million crystals, gold chest, sky griffin's nest.
- Top 11-50: 1 million crystals, gold chest, hell monkey's nest.
- ...
As usual, the leaderboard did not disappoint. The items listed were always new and had very impressive names.
Lein didn't look any longer. He then sent a message to the 10 core members of the alliance and to Nita, informing them of an important meeting.
***
On the northern streets of Life City, there was a small bar with a few people inside.
"Mr. Ari, weren't you planning to join the World Market Alliance?" an old man asked the elderly man next to his chair.
"Yes... but I won't apply now. I want to join this new event first," replied the old man with a long white mustache.
"Hahaha... at your age, do you still have hope of competing with those young people? Wouldn't joining the World Market Alliance ensure a good life for your grandchildren?"
"Fool... we are not on Earth right now. Do you think the miracles and wonders you see every day make sense to an earthly human like you?" the old man with the mustache looked at his old friend with a mocking gaze.
"But..."
"Enough... enough... you won't understand. Just run your farming business like a robot without a future."
They continued their conversation as old friends.
In another room, a sturdy woman was reporting to an old man sitting at a large desk.
"All main forces have returned to the city, sir. Access to the portal is very easy as it appears randomly in open land," the woman said in a firm and clear tone.
The old man nodded and said, "Is there any movement from the island owners?"
"So far, none, sir. But it seems they will hold a big meeting in a few minutes."
The old man clasped his hands on the table, then rested his head on his clasped hands. He seemed to be pondering something.
After a long silence, the old man said, "Speed up all preparations and try to investigate with new organizations from outside the region."
"Yes, sir."
The random appearance of portals was one of the reasons everyone was talking about the new event. Not only ordinary people, but guilds, alliances, associations, and major organizations were discussing the same thing. As the main owner of the island, Lein did not restrict these people. The more they developed, the happier Lein would be.

Main Hall of the World Market Alliance, Conference Room
A very spacious white room. The walls are red-brown with beautiful, neatly engraved patterns. Statues of various mythical animals and flowers with different aromas fill the corners of the room. A large chandelier in the center of the ceiling adds a majestic feel to the room.
There are not many components in this room except for decorations and a large, long table with 10 big chairs lined up along the sides. At the front of the table, there are 2 special black chairs.
Lein and Nita sat in the two black chairs, while the 10 other alliance members sat in the red chairs along the sides of the table. All ten members were present, knowing how important this meeting was.
