After a moment of contemplation, the Crimson-Striped Divine Tiger Clan Chief asked, "How do you intend to cooperate?"
“We’ve left behind a copy of the Divine Beast Mountain’s legacy, which can also help you gain an advantage in the confrontation between the four races. All you need to do is help us find one thing,” Dongfang Mian said.
"Things? What things?" the Crimson Tiger Clan Chief asked. He didn't take Dongfang Mian's claim that he could help the Crimson Tiger Clan gain an advantage in the four-clan confrontation to heart; he was only interested in the inheritance of the Divine Beast Mountain that Dongfang Mian mentioned.
Dongfang Mian described the artifact fragments in detail. Seeing that the Crimson Tiger Clan Chief looked confused, he asked Yan Lin to take one out for him to see, but the latter shook his head and said that he had never seen it before.
Helpless, Dongfang Mian asked to stay with the Crimson Tiger Clan for a few more days, and the Crimson Tiger Clan Chief immediately agreed, since Aju needed time to leave behind a legacy of the Divine Beast Mountain.
“Alright, now let’s talk about the confrontation between the four races,” Dongfang Mian said.
The Crimson-Striped Divine Tiger Clan Chief snorted and said, "How can a mere human like you interfere in the confrontation between the four clans?"
“I didn’t say I was going to interfere; I was just giving you some advice,” Dongfang Mian said.
"What suggestion?" asked the chieftain of the Crimson-Striped Divine Tiger Clan.
“Since the four races have been locked in a standoff for so long, with numerous conflicts of all sizes, the best solution is for the four races to form an alliance and elect a leader. In this way, the divine beasts of the entire Beast Realm can unite in the future,” Dongfang Mian said.
"Hmph, do you think we're all fools? We've said this before, but who among the four races should take the position of leader? To tell you the truth, if it weren't for the fear that the Silver Dragon Clan and Ice Wolf Clan would target the Fire Phoenix Clan after defeating our clan, that old bird wouldn't have stood on our side at all," the Crimson-Striped Divine Tiger Clan Chief said with a cold snort.
"Oh? Then how do you plan to decide who will be the leader of the alliance?" Dongfang Mian asked.
“What other method is there? Of course, it’s for the four clan leaders to sit down and talk,” said the Crimson-Striped Divine Tiger Clan Leader.
“Oh, no wonder the talks broke down because of your approach,” Dongfang Mian nodded and said.
"Think about it, none of you are willing to admit defeat. How can you reach a conclusion by just talking? I have a good idea. Each of your four races has its own sacred ground, right? Add the Divine Beast Mountain, and that makes a total of five sacred grounds. I suggest setting up assessment points in these five sacred grounds, allowing the geniuses of the four races to participate in turn. In the end, whichever race's genius wins first place will become the leader of the alliance," Dongfang Mian said.
The Crimson-Striped Divine Tiger Clan Chief was taken aback and said, "This is a bit too frivolous. Besides, the Divine Beast Mountain Trial is not something we can just start casually."
“You need to know that the younger generation is the backbone of all races. The most powerful prodigy of a race basically determines the status of each race after the next clan leader takes office. Besides, it’s not permanent. You can re-examine and elect the alliance leader every thousand years. For divine beasts, a thousand years is just the replacement of a new generation of prodigies, isn’t it?” Dongfang Mian said.
Seeing that the Crimson Tiger Clan Chief was deep in thought, Dongfang Mian continued, "At the same time, you can allow the smaller races to send people to help. Firstly, this will allow you to know in advance which side each smaller race is on, and secondly, it will allow you to more directly demonstrate the strength of the major clans. Moreover, we have Aju on our side, who has an absolute bloodline advantage."
“But Ah Ju is the ancestor, and the other clan leaders all know him. It’s impossible for him to participate in the assessment,” the Crimson Tiger Clan Chief said, relenting.
