Chapter 451: Chapter 451: On the Verge
“You’re too kind. How could we do it without you?” The vice president of the Brilliant Guild said with a laugh.

“With top-tier guilds like yours, just a single move would solve the problem. Small guilds like ours just need to follow and cheer to boost morale, right?” Sister Li was aware of Li Yao’s grudge with the Brilliant Guild.

This grudge inevitably extends to the relationship between the two guilds, it couldn’t possibly end well. Therefore, Sister Li bluntly put Starfire and the other small guilds in the same camp.

After hearing Sister Li’s words, guild presidents or vice presidents who were not part of the top ten guilds immediately began to chime in.

“Exactly, now there are over twenty top-notch guilds here. With the prestige of these guilds, as long as some people are sent off, the problem will naturally be solved.”

“Indeed, even if we’re short on hands, just the mere mention of the top guilds would be enough to make them flee.”

“Absolutely, to be frank, there’s no need for us to even wave our flags and cheer, it’s completely redundant.”

These supposed small guilds, however, are only not ranked in the top three in their respective administrative regions.

Under general circumstances, only the top three guilds from each administrative region can rank in the world championship, and most of the professional players come from these top three guilds in each region.

Although the generation of Illusion God brought China’s competitive scene back to the world stage, the overall status is not very high, and players from other administrative regions also perceive China as weak.

In reality, truly small guilds couldn’t even make it into this tent, but Starfire, being a newly established guild, was invited, indicating there was more to it.

No matter how many people disliked Li Yao now, with his battle against Illusion God, his reputation had already grown significantly.

The same goes for the other players from different administrative regions. They may look down on Chinese players, but they still respect individuals like Illusion God.

Especially after the battle with Illusion God, many top-notch players started studying Li Yao’s video and found it rewarding, further affirming Li Yao’s genuine skills.

So when the meeting began, the other top guilds from different regions proposed inviting Starfire. As for guilds like the Brilliant Guild, they didn’t want Li Yao to participate. In their view, Starfire should be like those real small guilds, used as cannon fodder.

The vice president of the Totem Club, one of Africa’s top guilds, said, “Prairie Fire, you can’t shirk this. I’m sure you’re aware of the cause of this. If it wasn’t for those people trying to handle you and an accident occurred, we wouldn’t be tangled in this mess.”

A vice president of a top guild in America also said, “Exactly, King Hunter, don’t try to dodge responsibility. If it wasn’t for you, we wouldn’t have been deceived. Others have been pioneering for two days now, while we’re still stuck outside.”

Sister Li said coldly, “So it’s our fault they targeted our guild. And now you want to push the blame onto our president. You’re really good at calculating, but we won’t take this blame.”

Sea Wide Sky High also said, “It’s not fair to blame Prairie Fire for this. Discussing this is pointless. If we don’t distribute well and delay any further, they’ll finish fighting the second boss. You top guilds have plenty of experts to catch up, but we can’t afford to waste that much time.”

“If not for Sea Brother’s reminder, we would have fallen for it, so this is the trick top guilds play.”

“You want to turn the tables? All this does is make us suffer more, that’s quite devious.”

“If you don’t decide soon, I’m out. Worst case, we’ll just start a bit late. Anyway, we’re already so far behind, there’s no chance for our guild to get the first kill.”

“Exactly, you top guilds shouldn’t bully people too much. We’d rather not play, you can play on your own.”

The presidents or vice presidents of top guilds exchanged glances.

A vice president said, “Alright, let’s stick to what we agreed on. Even though Starfire is a small guild, they can’t not participate. To be fair to Starfire, let them also deploy a hundred elite players.”

“Seconded.”

“Seconded.”

Sea Wide Sky High said, “Brother, it’s up to you. We will also send a hundred from our guilds. For the top guilds, one hundred and fifty.”

Li Yao nodded and said, “Alright, a hundred it is.”

Li Yao didn’t bargain over this matter. Now that they’ve reached an agreement, his opposition wouldn’t mean anything and might even lead to their collective disdain.

Seeing how quickly Starfire agreed, those guilds who held grudges against them felt incredibly disappointed. They were hoping Li Yao would impulsively refuse, so they could take the opportunity to make more guilds dislike and distrust Starfire. But Li Yao didn’t give them that opportunity, leaving them extremely disheartened.

“Alright, since it’s decided, I’ll take the liberty to direct the command for now,” Edward declared.

No one objected to a woman taking command, it was obviously decided at the start who would lead. Edward is not just the top guild leader in her region but in the world too. She was qualified for this.

“Now that we’ve reached a consensus, everyone can go back and gather their members. We’ll meet at the valley entrance. They have been preparing for us for quite some time, and we can’t let them down.” Edward nodded towards Li Yao and left the tent first.

Li Yao and Sea Wide Sky High headed back towards their team’s defense line after nodding to each other.

Upon return, Li Yao summarized the situation and said, “We should select a hundred people now. There might be a big battle soon, the main task is to cover Group One’s successful entry into the instance. However, this seems a bit unfair, so this selection is on a voluntary basis.”

Sister Li added, “This also counts as a tough guild mission and points will be awarded.”

The five hundred members of Starfire immediately boiled with excitement, all expressing their eagerness to join the battle. Not a single one was cowardly.

Now is just level twenty, even if they died, the loss wouldn’t be substantial. Besides, this is the first large-scale battle since the game’s operation started. Not participating would certainly be a lost opportunity.

“Since so many are willing to join, let Sister Li choose. She knows all of you best.” Li Yao stepped back as he spoke.

“In that case, I won’t hold back. All of you are elites, none inferior to the other. But, what I’m looking for are those suited for chaotic battles, those likely to survive. So, if you aren’t chosen, don’t be disappointed. It’s not that you’re weak, but compared to others, you’re not suited for this kind of fight.”

Sister Li explained before she started selecting members. Sister Li knows every member’s character like the back of her hand. When she selected someone, she could articulate the exact reason for her choice.

The members accepted the selections wholeheartedly…
