"If Heiyu Ao really goes too far, Mr. Lin can have the other Peak Masters step forward, then Heiyu Mo wouldn't dare to disobey the Peak Masters' orders..."
Hou Ming reminded in a low voice.
In front of the Red Kun Lineage, the Heiyu Family is subservient and humble, which isn't to say that the Heiyu Family isn't strong.
Rather, it's because the Red Kun Lineage is too powerful, so the Heiyu Family can only act in this way.
But without the Red Kun Lineage, the Heiyu Family would be the overlord overlooking a Star Domain, and of the five major forces, the other four wouldn't want to offend the Heiyu Family unless absolutely necessary.
"I understand."
Lin Yuan nodded.
Only—
Unless it's the last resort,
Lin Yuan wouldn't ask his senior brothers to intervene.
At the level of the Heiyu Family and the Peak Masters of the Red Kun Lineage,
Every action was watched by countless eyes.
If Lin Yuan, hiding his true identity, was practicing on Canglan Star and got involved in the vortex of the Peak Masters and the Heiyu Family
It could lead to certain beings deducing something.
There are myriad Evolution Paths in the Main World of the Human Alliance, among which is a type named 'Divination.'
This type of Evolution Path can deduce conclusions from known information.
The appointment of the thirteen Peak Masters of the Red Kun Lineage just took place, and countless forces from outside are guessing the true identity of the thirteenth Peak Master.
If at this time, a Peak Master intervenes and suppresses the Heiyu Family,
It would be a very obvious signal to those who are proficient in the 'Divination' type Evolution Path.
Even if the senior brothers were extremely secretive, if in the end Heiyu Ao inexplicably backed off, there would still be loose ends.
Of course, those who evolved through this type of 'Divination' usually lack combat power and are mostly employed by the 'Think Tank' of some major forces.
...
"Why exactly did Lin Yuan refuse me?"
"Is it because the conditions I offered weren't high enough?"
On the throne, Heiyu Ao was still pondering.
During this time, while he was recruiting other Evolvers, he couldn't stop thinking about Lin Yuan.
He couldn't help remembering when he left his family to venture outside.
His own father, Heiyu Mo, once gave him two choices.
The first option was to take ten trillion Civilization Coins from the family treasury.
Afterward, the Heiyu Family wouldn't provide much support, and if he wanted to return to the family and run for the position of clan leader, he must turn these ten trillion Civilization Coins into one hundred billion Cosmic Coins.
The conversion rate between Civilization Coins and Cosmic Coins is ten thousand to one.
Meaning, Heiyu Ao needed to earn a hundredfold of ten trillion Civilization Coins in wealth to qualify to return to the clan.
The second option was to let the family's 'Think Tank' plan out a complete business map for him.
Heiyu Ao only needed to eventually make ten trillion Civilization Coins to return to the family and compete for the position of clan leader.
In the end, Heiyu Ao chose the second option.
And the 'Think Tank' of the Heiyu Family planned a business map for him, rooted in arena competitions.
The business map was detailed, with the 'Think Tanks' of the Heiyu Family painstakingly picking two hundred and twenty-three Evolvers under one hundred years old.
These two hundred and twenty-three Evolvers all have potential not discovered by ordinary people; as long as Heiyu Ao signs these two hundred and twenty-three Evolvers and trains them for future tournaments, they are very likely to shine.
And among these two hundred and twenty-three Evolvers, Lin Yuan was listed.
"Lin Yuan..."
Heiyu Ao echoed the 'Think Tank's' evaluation of Lin Yuan in his mind.
"Just over twenty years old, he stepped into Fourth Rank and is in the mid-to-late stage of the Fourth Rank. Trained and nurtured, he'll reach the pinnacle of the Fourth Rank before the next tournament, with hopes to step into the Fifth Rank before reaching a hundred years old."
"With the strength of the Fifth Rank, participating in the Star Domain-level arena competitions, it's quite easy to break into the top one thousand..."
...
"I, Heiyu Ao, must have this Lin Yuan." Your adventure starts at m,vle,mpyr.
Heiyu Ao looked down at his subordinates and said, "I've heard that geniuses are proud, you went to invite him and were rejected, but if I personally invite him, might I succeed?"
"Young Master..."
Dressed in a black suit, the elder Bei Zhao was slightly stunned, "I'm not sure, but if the Young Master personally invites him, that Lin Yuan would surely be very moved?"
With Heiyu Ao's status, personally inviting an Evolver with no background and no power, the latter would indeed be moved.
After all, a personal invitation signifies importance and gives face.

...
Virtual World.
A small world specially opened up.
All twelve Peak Masters of the Red Kun Lineage had gathered here.
At that moment.
A figure appeared.
It was Lin Yuan.
"My fellow seniors, my cultivation delayed me, and I lost track of time."
Lin Yuan's tone was apologetic as he apologized immediately.
Since becoming the thirteenth Peak Master of the Red Kun Lineage,
to maintain the bond among the Peak Masters, the eldest senior brother took the initiative to invite the other Peak Masters to gather together from time to time.
Since it is in the Virtual World, it's very convenient. A connection of consciousness is enough, and everyone usually arrives on time.
"Hahaha, our little junior brother is truly remarkable. He's not yet a hundred years old and has already reached the Fifth Rank. Stepping into the Sixth Rank is just a matter of time," the eldest senior brother laughed heartily.
Lin Yuan's advancement to the Fifth Rank was no secret, known to the Chikun Star Lord and all twelve senior brothers.
"Our junior brother doesn't possess any special physiques or bloodlines, so breaking through to the Fifth Rank before the age of one hundred is truly rare," the second senior brother nodded in approval.
Within the Cosmic Human Alliance, there indeed are many inconceivable geniuses. Not to mention Fifth Rankers under a hundred, even Sixth Rankers have appeared before.
But these geniuses all have various physiques and bloodlines. Some are born at the Third or Fourth Rank, or even the Fourth or Fifth Rank. Their starting points are so high that there is no need for comparison.
But Lin Yuan is different.
Even though the twelve Peak Masters had not seen Lin Yuan in person,
they knew from what they heard from the Chikun Star Lord that Lin Yuan's physique and bloodlines did not have anything special.
"Given the pace of our junior brother's cultivation, he could attempt breaking through to the Sixth Rank in at most a few decades."
"Before breaking through to the Sixth Rank, our junior brother must be careful to choose a fundamental Evolution Path. The more suitable it is for oneself, the higher the soul's resonance, and the faster the transformation," the eldest senior brother earnestly advised.
"It might even aid significantly in the breakthrough from the Sixth Rank to the Seventh Rank in the future."
Lin Yuan was firm in his heart.
The eldest senior brother had always emphasized choosing the Evolution Path that was most suitable for oneself to transform through soul resonance,
not necessarily the strongest.
And what Evolution Path could be more suitable for Lin Yuan than the Martial Path Evolutionary Path from among the vast array of Evolution Paths mastered by human civilization?
"Ah, given our junior brother's speed of cultivation, it's very possible for him to break through to the Seventh Rank. By then, I don't know whether we should change how we address him..." the third senior brother glanced at the fourth senior brother and the other nine senior brothers.
"Uh, this..." the fourth senior brother blinked, "If our junior brother can break through to the Seventh Rank, it will strengthen the foundation of our Red Kun Lineage. I would be willing to change the way I address him."
"Hahahaha, Old Three, stop teasing them," the second senior brother shook his head.
For a Sixth Rank Evolver to break through to the Seventh Rank, they need a particular kind of opportunity. Even if Lin Yuan manages to break through to the Sixth Rank in a few decades, the step further into the Seventh Rank is not something easily achieved.
Many extremity Sixth Rank Evolvers remain stuck at this bottleneck for thousands or even tens of thousands of years until they die of old age.
...
After an hour of conversation with his senior brothers, the gathering ended.
Lin Yuan disconnected his consciousness from the Virtual World and returned to reality.
Central Continent Manor, underground training facility.
"Let's see the progress made during this period..."
Lin Yuan carefully sensed the degree of transformation of his soul.
"Twenty percent...?"
A smile appeared on Lin Yuan's face. At this rate, it would take less than two years, just over a year, for his soul to achieve perfect resonance.
Then, he would step into the Sixth Rank, becoming a Fallen Star-level Powerhouse that commands respect.
