No one knows how Li Xueru did it. He did it effortlessly and with complete ease. The beautiful women surrounding him had eyes full of infatuation with him, yet there was surprisingly no hostility between them.
While god-level powerhouses or generals do indeed possess the privilege of marrying multiple wives, rivalry and jealousy among women are often inevitable. However, this doesn't seem to apply to Li Xueru.
Yi Ning also witnessed this scene in the crowd. She turned to Lin Cai'er as if by some strange impulse and said, "Cai'er, if Jiang Chen also has many female confidantes in the future, how will you deal with it?"
Lin Cai'er smiled and shook her head, "Probably not. He's usually not very talkative, so no girl would like someone like him." Chu Yao then leaned over and whispered, "What if he really is pregnant? Put yourself in his shoes."
Lin Cai'er thought about it carefully for a moment, and then replied, "That depends on their personalities. If they have good personalities, we might be able to become good sisters."
Yi Ning and Chu Yao stared wide-eyed, not expecting Lin Cai'er to give such an answer.
Lin Cai'er continued, "Don't you find it strange? Actually, it's nothing. Outstanding people naturally attract many people. If that day really comes, I can't selfishly monopolize him, otherwise he won't be happy."
"Moreover, my grandfather had several wives. My eldest grandmother, second grandmother, and third grandmother were all very good to me."
After hearing Lin Cai'er's explanation, the two of them breathed a sigh of relief.
Lin Cai'er looked at the two of them with a flicker in her eyes, "Sister Ning'er, Sister Shu, have you both fallen for Jiang Chen?"
"No, don't talk nonsense!" "How could that be? I'm so much older than him!"
The two quickly denied it, but the more they did so, the more Lin Cai'er felt they were hiding something.
Lin Cai'er smiled slightly; she wasn't so easily fooled. "If you really like Jiang Chen, that's fine too. That way, we can still be sisters forever."
The two looked at Lin Cai'er without saying a word, neither admitting nor denying it.
……
After Li Xueru's arrival, the opening time for the Divine Stone instance finally arrived. A soldier flew out of the fortress; he was also a god-level powerhouse, representing the military's authority.
The chilling aura he exuded permeated the entire area, as if one could hear the bugle call of battle. This was the unique aura of a soldier, cultivated only through countless battles.
Under the influence of this soldier's aura, everyone's expression became serious, and all the previous jokes and banter disappeared without a trace.
Although many present knew perfectly well that this god-level expert from the military was actually Hong Jishi's right-hand man, at this moment, he represented the dignity and impartiality of the Divine Dragon Empire's army.
He walked to the center of the venue and announced in a loud and clear voice: "The 48th Divine Stone Dungeon is officially open."
As he spoke, he took out an ancient scroll and threw it forcefully into the air. The scroll exploded in mid-air, transforming into a sky full of starlight. Within this starlight, a massive vortex of illusion slowly emerged, having been cleverly concealed within the space before.
Immediately afterwards, arrays lit up in the arena, projecting hundreds of images into the air, each accurately showing the scene inside the instance. Since the instance was currently empty, all the images presented the same scene.
Above each image floats a number, currently displayed as 0. This number changes based on someone's performance as they begin tackling the dungeon. Every action of every player within the dungeon is displayed without reservation to everyone. In such an environment, cheating is absolutely impossible. No one can pull off any tricks under the watchful eyes of so many god-level powerhouses.
The Divine Stone Dungeon is not just about obtaining tempting rewards; it's also a fantastic opportunity to showcase your abilities and prove your strength. Since its discovery, this dungeon has attracted countless heroes and warriors with its unique rules and mechanics.
Its magic lies in the fact that only one person is allowed to enter at a time, and the challenges and difficulty within the instance are intelligently adjusted based on the entrant's class and level. Whether you are level 50 or 55, you will face the same high level of challenge.
Jiang Chen stood in the crowd, his heart filled with curiosity and anticipation for this divine stone instance. He suddenly realized that this was not just a simple instance, but more like a huge testing ground.
He whispered to Li Xueru, who had just approached, "Teacher, what is the highest score for this dungeon?"
Li Xueru smiled slightly, a profound look in his eyes: "This is a question that even I may not be able to answer definitively. The Divine Stone Dungeon has been opened forty-eight times, and countless heroes have come to challenge it each time, but no one has ever achieved a perfect score."
A glint of light flashed in Jiang Chen's eyes. He realized that there might be a deeper secret hidden behind this instance.
Li Xueru explained, "The highest score in history is 95 points. As long as you can get 90 points or more, you can get half a divine stone."
Jiang Chen asked curiously, "Has no one ever gotten a perfect score of 100?"
Li Xueru shook his head. "Since the Divine Stone dungeon was introduced, no one has ever achieved a perfect score. Back then, Lao Hong and I both tried, but we only got 94 points."
He paused, looked at Jiang Chen, and said, "What? You doubt that half a divine stone is the final reward?"
Jiang Chen smiled slightly and replied, "It seems you have the same doubts, teacher." Li Xueru admitted, "I have indeed had such thoughts, but I have never been able to verify them. Why don't you go and investigate the truth?"
Jiang Chen pondered for a moment, then said, "I'll observe first. If there's an opportunity later, I'll give it a try."
"Okay!" Li Xueru replied briefly, without saying anything more.
The introduction to the Divine Stone dungeon has ended, and the competition is about to begin. A team marches out of Fortress No. 4 in perfect unison, their steps synchronized and their presence imposing.
Everyone could tell at a glance that this was a military unit. Only the military could train such a disciplined team.
The Divine Stone Dungeon is open not only to various clans and factions, but also to military professionals. As the owner of the Divine Stone Dungeon, the military naturally has a large number of participation slots.
This time, the military sent a full one hundred people to participate in the competition. With the appearance of the military professionals, four more people flew out of Fortress Four. Ye Chenshi flew at the forefront, followed closely by Wang Lin, Wei Cang, and Xia Shize. Their appearance immediately sparked discussion among the crowd.
"Why are they here too?"
"It's actually Ye Chenshi!"
"I heard that Ye Chenshi is living in seclusion in Fortress No. 9, wanting to take control of the Demon-Slaying Tower. It seems the rumors are true. I wonder if he has succeeded."
"He probably hasn't succeeded yet, otherwise he would have already shown off. You all know how fiercely the Confucian God fought with them for the Dragon Tower back then."
Li Xueru frowned slightly at this moment, "How did these guys end up here?"
Jiang Chen didn't recognize them, but he could sense that all four of them were god-level experts, especially the leader, Ye Chenshi, whose strength was unfathomable.
He asked curiously, "Do they have any grudges against us?" Li Xueru shook his head. "It's not that we have any grudges, it's just that our relationship isn't very harmonious. We don't need to worry about them, they can come or not if they want."
Jiang Chen pressed on, "Who exactly are they?"
"The one leading us is called Ye Chenshi. He's a level 95 divine mage, and in terms of seniority, he's higher than all of us," Li Xueru explained.
"The three behind are Xia Shize, a level 93 divine mage; Wei Cang, a level 92 divine warrior; and Wang Lin, a level 92 divine knight."
Jiang Chen silently memorized the names of Ye Chenshi and the other three. If it were just a simple antagonistic relationship, he naturally wouldn't care, but if there was a deep-seated hatred between them, then these four would naturally become his enemies.
Ye Chenshi and his three companions sat in the guest seats. Ye Chenshi's sharp gaze swept over everyone, finally settling on Jiang Chen. He smiled and said, "This must be the renowned General Jiang. Truly, heroes emerge from among the young."
Jiang Chen remained calm and composed, replying, "Senior Ye, you flatter me. I still have much to learn."
Ye Chenshi chuckled and continued, "Young man, there's no need to be modest. Your future is boundless."
Then, Ye Chenshi turned his gaze to Lin Cai'er and the other two, a warm smile on his face: "Little Lin, Little Yi, Little Chu, these three girls are truly beautiful as angels. They must be the daughters of your families."
Although Lin Zhenzi wasn't particularly close to Ye Chenshi, he still responded out of courtesy, "Indeed, Senior Ye, what advice do you have for me?"
Ye Chenshi smiled slightly and said, "I have a great-grandson who is exceptionally handsome and talented. He and your granddaughter would be a perfect match. Would you be willing to consider this marriage?"
Just as Lin Zhenzi was about to speak, Jiang Chen suddenly interrupted him: "Senior Ye, please allow me to say a word."
Ye Chenshi turned his gaze to Jiang Chen and asked, "What brilliant idea does General Jiang have?" A cold glint flashed in Jiang Chen's eyes as he calmly said, "I have no intention of getting to know Senior Ye's great-grandson. But if he dares to approach Cai'er, I don't mind personally sending him on his way and putting an end to your hopes."
