"What's our academy's leader worried about?"
Teao Kai's voice rang out, and Lu Yin turned around to see a foxy face with a chilling smile.
Lu Yin's heart skipped a beat when he saw Silver. "The Daynight clan has made a move against the Great Yu Empire. Aren't you going to do anything about it?"
Silver feigned surprise. "Make a move?
Is it because you offended the Nightking clan? "
Lu Yin did not answer, which was a tacit admission.
Silver's lips curled up. "That won't be easy. That's the Daynight clan we're talking about, and you've offended their entire bloodline. It'll be troublesome."
Lu Yin looked at him. "If the Daynight clan takes care of the Great Yu Empire, then you'll be in trouble as well. At the very least, your plans in the Great Yu Empire will come to an end."
Silver stretched lazily. "I don't understand what you're talking about, but I do have some information that I can sell you. I just don't know if you'll be able to pay the price."
"What information?" Lu Yin's eyes narrowed.
Silver beamed at Lu Yin. "First, the price. We'll trade for the goods."
Lu Yin took out his Mavis Bank crystal card. "There are 450,000 star crystals here."
Silver smiled. "I don't need that. What I want is information."
"Information?" Lu Yin was astonished, but he could vaguely guess what Silver was talking about.
"You were actually able to communicate with a Nightking elder and get that old fart, Nightking Yuanjing, to protect your little girlfriend. I want to know what price you paid." Silver's smile faded.
Lu Yin fell into deep thought. Could he tell Silver about the Third Nightking?
Silver was from the Neohuman Alliance, which meant that he was an enemy of the human race. Although the Third Nightking was from the Nightking clan, he had still helped the human race invade the Astral Beast Domain. Would telling Silver be akin to betraying the human race?
"Hey, why don't you tell him?" The monkey's voice rang out in Lu Yin's mind.
Lu Yin was conflicted.
"It seems like this kid isn't a good person. Only a few people know about Nightking Yuanjing. Aside from this place, only the upper echelons of the Nightking clan know about it. If this kid knows about it, then he must have spread his ears to the Nightking clan. That would be terrifying. Kid, is that the case?" the monkey asked.
Lu Yin grunted in acknowledgment.
Across from him, Silver's eyes widened. "What? Is that price?
Or are you willing to sacrifice the Great Yu Empire to protect the Nightking clan?
Or are you saying that you've already defected to the Nightking clan? "
Silver's voice was very cold when he said the last sentence, a coldness that had never been there before.
"This brat isn't anything good. Tell him about the Third Nightking."
Lu Yin frowned, but he remained silent.
"Don't worry. Even if the Third Nightking's whereabouts spread throughout the Human Domain or even the entire universe, it's useless. No one can save him, and no one can harm him either. Even the Astral Beast Domain hasn't been able to do it after so many years. Do you think the Human Domain can do it?
Also, the Third Nightking isn't a good person. You can ask around and find out how many clans that guy wiped out back in the day. The Nightking clan's tyranny is partially due to him, "the monkey said.
Lu Yin made up his mind and looked at Silver. "I have something to tell Nightking Yuanjing."
Silver's eyes widened again.
"The Third Nightking is in the Astral Beast Domain's Greater Realm of Nothingness," Lu Yin said slowly. That one sentence caused the smile on Silver's face to completely vanish, replaced by a bone-chilling killing intent.
"How do you know where the Third Nightking is?" Silver asked.
Lu Yin had never seen Silver like this before. "I've already given you the information. You can tell me what you want to know now."
Silver took a deep breath and slowly calmed himself down. His expression turned serious. "The Nightking clan is vainly trying to encroach on the Outerverse, and they've already decided to send experts to participate in the Outerverse trial. This trial is to select talents for the Outerverse Youth Council. Many experts from both the Outerverse and Innerverse will participate, including pirates from the Astral River, dark powers from Chaos Flowzone, and even the remnants of the Technocracy and Astral Beast Domains."
"Why?"
Lu Yin was astonished. The Outerverse Youth Council had been established for so many years, and this selection seemed to be especially important.
Silver shook his head. "I don't know the exact reason, but the various clans of the Innerverse want to have a hand in the Outerverse Youth Council. It's not just the subordinate councilors, but also the councilors."
"Councilors?
What about the original councilors? "Lu Yin was puzzled.
Silver's lips curled up into a cold smile. "Of the original ten councilors, half are dead."
Lu Yin was shocked. The Outerverse Youth Council's councilors were all experts on the Top 100 Rankings. Wendy Yushan, for example, was in the top twenty. Some of the other councilors were weaker than her, but they were all absolute experts.
"Are you surprised?
Don't worry about it, it's very normal. The universe is just that exciting. No matter how strong you are, you can still fall. When the Third Nightking disappeared, it shook the entire universe, but it didn't take long for everyone to accept it. This is the universe. "Silver beamed as he spoke, and then he left.
Lu Yin felt that Silver had purposely come here to tell him about the Daynight clan. Why?
Was he here to cause trouble?
The Neohuman Alliance had also planted people in the Outerverse Youth Council, so they would definitely send more people.
Lu Yin did not know Silver's goal, but he had obtained information that would be useful to him. Silver planned to cause trouble and divert the Daynight clan's attention.
However, since they dared to send people to compete for the councilors' positions, then there might be quite a few space-exploring powerhouses participating in the trial, which would be very troublesome. Although Lu Yin was not afraid of ordinary Explorers and could challenge those of a higher realm, if he ran into an Explorer from a powerful clan like the Daynight clan, he might not be able to challenge them.
After thinking about it, Lu Yin contacted Mira. He wanted to know the exact information so that he could be prepared. If the participants were all Explorers, then he could forget about it. He was there to cause trouble, not to die.
Mira was a graduate of the Astral Combat Academy, so Lu Yin could contact her directly.
"What a rare guest. If I remember correctly, this should be the first time you've contacted me of your own accord." Mira's beautiful face appeared on the screen, and she beamed at Lu Yin.
When he saw her, Lu Yin recalled the time when she had teased him on Planet Conan. This woman had a wicked sense of humor. "Senior Mira, do you still remember what you promised me?"
Mira's eyes widened, and she revealed an innocent and confused expression. "I don't remember. What did I promise you?"
Lu Yin was helpless. "Recommend me to the Outerverse Youth Council."
Mira grunted in acknowledgment. "Sure, but you have to think about it carefully. If I recommend you, then you'll be branded as Wen Sansi."
If this had been before the Astral Combat Tournament, Mira would not have said this to Lu Yin, as he did not have a choice, nor did he have the qualifications to choose. It would be his honor to be able to join the Ten Arbiters, but things were different now. Lu Yin was a member of the Council of Astral Academy, and he was also an extremely talented young expert. He had the qualifications to choose.
"Do I have to do this?" Lu Yin asked helplessly.
Mira smiled. "Of course. Think about it carefully."
"What if I enter on my own?
For example, the Outerverse trial? "Lu Yin probed as he looked at Mira.
Mira's eyes flashed. "The Outerverse trial?
Who told you that? "
Lu Yin did not answer.
Mira's lips curled up. "Is it your little fiancée?
That Princess Wendy? "
Lu Yin shrugged. He did not refute or admit to it.
"There is indeed an Outerverse trial recently. If you don't want to be branded as one of the Ten Arbiters and join the Outerverse Youth Council, then this is a good opportunity."
Lu Yin was curious. "Is this trial going to elect a councilor?"
Mira shook her head. "At present, there are only five councilors in the Outerverse Youth Council, so there should be an election. However, it's not through this trial because no one in the Outerverse has the qualifications to become a councilor yet."
"Outerverse?
Can't someone from the Innerverse do it? "Lu Yin was puzzled.
Mira smiled. "The Ten Arbiters Council not only needs prestige, but also affinity and support. If you need support, then you need to rope them in. Since this is an Outerverse matter, then it should be left to the Outerverse. Although the previous ten councilors cultivated in the Innerverse, they were originally from the Outerverse, which is why they could become councilors. But now, no one from the Outerverse has the qualifications to become a councilor.
Lu Yin muttered to himself. If Innerverse powerhouses could not become councilors, then what was the Daynight clan fighting for?
Just subordinate councilors?
"Of course, if the Outerverse cannot produce enough councilors within a certain period of time, then we can only choose from the Innerverse. However, that won't be considered for now."
Lu Yin asked, "What qualifications do I need to become a councilor?"
Mira's lips curled up. "Leave your name on the Top 100 Rankings."
Lu Yin nodded. Indeed, the Top 100 Rankings was the standard for the Ten Arbiters Council. There were two ranks below the Ten Arbiters: the first was the Outerverse Youth Council, and the second was the Ten Arbiters' subordinate councilors. Almost all of the powerhouses in these two ranks were on the Top 100 Rankings, as the Ten Arbiters had gathered almost all of the top youths in the universe.
"So, this trial has nothing to do with electing councilors, but rather subordinate councilors?" Lu Yin asked.
Mira nodded. "That's right, so you'll still have a chance if you join. Although there will definitely be space-exploring powerhouses among the participants, there shouldn't be many. The council wants to restrict the Innerverse from interfering too much with the Outerverse in order to prevent the Outerverse from boycotting them. Thus, there are very few space-exploring powerhouses from the Innerverse who can participate in this trial, and there aren't many Outerverse youths who can reach the first realm of space-exploring. Thus, this trial is mainly for Limiteers."
At this point, Mira's eyes lit up, and she looked at Lu Yin curiously. "If you pass this trial and join the Outerverse Youth Council, whose subordinate councilor will you become?
Your little fiancée? "
Lu Yin had never considered this question before, and he frowned. "Even though I'm a member of the Council of Astral Academy, I still have to become a subordinate councilor?"
Mira looked up. "That's a problem. Since ancient times, no member of the Council of Astral Academy has ever participated in the Outerverse Youth Council's subordinate councilor trial. That's because their status is equivalent to that of councilors, so there's no need to compete for the position of a subordinate councilor. You're really strange.
