"What's your name? Which family are you from?" Ye Chen asked curiously, without rushing to answer the boy's question.
"Hehe! My name is Lin Zheping. I don't have any power. Why don't you take me in, big boss?" the boy said shyly, with a little embarrassment on his face. However, Ye Chen did not detect any embarrassment in his words.
"You're not shy at all. What's your race? How did you do in the trial?" Ye Chen smiled, turned around, and continued walking forward.
“Hehe! The clan is Fenrir, a high-ranking lord!” the boy quickly followed, answering with a hint of pride.
"Fenrir?" Ye Chen was taken aback. This was a rare clan, and it was easily confused with werewolves.
"Yes! Fenrir the Wolf! A prodigy-level clan!"
In Norse mythology, Fenrir the wolf is a monster that can fight Odin, the king of the gods, and even kills him. The wolf clan that descends from Fenrir is powerful, no less than, and even slightly stronger than, the elemental dragons, and even inferior to the rule dragons.
"I didn't realize you were such a genius. But Fenrir, I'm afraid it'll be hard to control, right?" Ye Chen couldn't help but tease, seeing the smug smile on the other person's face.
Upon hearing this, Lin Zheping's smile froze instantly. He hadn't expected Ye Chen to know about this race. However, he was shameless and turned around to shamelessly approach Ye Chen again.
"Hehe! Senior, you're really amazing! Not many people know about this race! You're truly knowledgeable!" The compliment was casually uttered, since it didn't cost any money. Ye Chen was too lazy to even glance at him, his gaze sweeping over the stalls, but unfortunately, he didn't come across anything that interested him.
"Hey! Senior, now that we're practically family, can you tell me how Fenrir is controlled? You have no idea how scary these wolves are. Sometimes when they're hungry, they almost try to eat me!" Lin Zheping said tirelessly, clearly unaware of the concept of distance.
The Phoenix Maiden and Dragon Maiden beside him tried to stop him several times, but he always managed to circle around them. Moreover, Ye Chen did not say anything to stop them, so they had no choice but to give up in the end.
"Hey, hey, hey! Don't talk nonsense. How did you become family? I don't have a daughter to marry you!" Ye Chen immediately refused. Why were they trying to claim kinship?
"Uh! Well! Didn't you just agree to take me into the Duobao Group? Doesn't that make us part of the Duobao family?" Lin Zheping said awkwardly.
"Heh! I remember I just asked which faction you belonged to, right? When did we agree to take you in?" Ye Chen sneered and continued walking forward.
"No way! Brother! You already asked me about my trial results, didn't you? A prodigy's family, a high-level lord, those are top-notch results! All for getting into our Duobao Group!" Lin Zheping said excitedly.
"Hmph! It's a pity that your race, despite its prodigious nature, has a flaw! Who knows when you might turn against us!"
"Don't worry, absolutely not. Who am I? A dog training expert! You bring me a husky, and I can train it to be a border collie!"
"That's quite something! It's a pity our Duobao doesn't keep dogs! So we don't need a dog training expert!"
"This? A metaphor! A metaphor!"
"..."
The two chatted casually, and Lin Zheping realized that Ye Chen was just teasing him, but he didn't say anything and just chatted and joked with him. Ye Chen was an idol in the hearts of many new lords, and many people would kill for this opportunity.
After wandering around for a while, Ye Chen finally found something that interested him again: the Creation Treasure - the Seed of All Things.
The Seed of All Things is a treasure of Gaia, the Earth Mother Goddess, according to legend. Planting it on the ground and watering it with the Water of Life will give birth to life. The stall in front of us only has a few, but they are still very precious.
Such a treasure would fetch an astronomical price at a high-end auction, but at this trade fair organized by a group of newcomers, it has attracted no interest whatsoever.
"How much do you sell your Seed of All Things? What can you grow from it?" Ye Chen squatted down and asked curiously.
"Well, I don't know either. I planted a few, and the things that grew out were all different. But they weren't plants; they were living creatures!" The stall owner was a cute girl, not tall but very voluptuous in the right places, as if she had stepped out of an anime.
"Not a plant? Then what are you planning to exchange it for?" Ye Chen asked curiously. This should also be a reward item from the trial space, but unfortunately most people don't know how to use it.
"Hmm, I'd like to exchange for some resources, preferably rare and high-grade crops!" the girl said.
"Are you a support-type lord?" Ye Chen was taken aback when he heard this. He noticed that the items on the other party's stall were mostly agricultural products, and only support-type lords would usually do something like exchanging for high-level agricultural products.
"Yes, I'm a support-type lord. My name is Sheryl. If you need food or medicine in the future, you can contact me. I should be active in the surrounding planes of the Blue Star plane!" The girl replied with a smile, handing over her business card. Rather than saying she was there to make a transaction, it would be more accurate to say she wanted to take this opportunity to attract customers.
"You have quite the business sense, don't you? Cheryl? A low-level lord? No power?" Ye Chen said with a smile, looking at the contents of the business card. Nowadays, people like to add friends directly through communicators, not realizing that adding friends through communicators requires the other party's consent, which is far less memorable than a business card. Moreover, if you see it when you need it in the future, you can remember it immediately.
"Thank you for the compliment! But for a support-type lord, passing the trials is quite difficult. I'm already very fortunate to have passed! No faction wants me! I can only try my best to support the clans in my territory!" Cheryl said with a smile, but there was still some disappointment in her tone.
“Alright! I’ll take these seeds. Also, on behalf of Duobao Group, I’d like to invite you to join us. I wonder if you’re interested?” Ye Chen nodded, smiled at the other party, and handed over his business card. He usually kept some of these on hand.
"Brother! Me! Me! Me! What about me?" Upon hearing this, Lin Zheping, who was standing next to Ye Chen, became anxious and asked, pointing at himself. The little girl opposite him was stunned and stared blankly at Ye Chen, at a loss for what to do.
Before the girl could reply, Ye Chen, feeling dizzy from being shaken, could only helplessly say, "Fine, fine! If she's willing to come in, you can be an extra! If she's not willing... then forget it!"
