The Koh Chang island was only thirty minutes’ ferry away from the Pattaya coastline. More than a month ago, the island started displaying magic features like the Beimang remains. While there were active and threatening skeleton soldiers on Mt Beimang, the Koh Chang remains was characterized with howling, which made the place look like a living inferno at night.

Koh Chang used to be one of the main tourist destinations. In order to cater to the demand for cheap trips, many tour guides took advantage of tourists’ ignorance of the situations on the ground and brought them to the low-quality beach at Koh Chang, resulting in the large flow of local visitors.

However, current conditions had forced many tour guides to turn to other visitor itineraries, while more adventurous ones accepted travel requests from Practitioners. In fact, Practitioners were more lavish about giving tips.

It was part of the local culture to leave tips with the usual rate at ten to twenty baht. But many Practitioners liked to give more than a hundred baht.

A number of Practitioners had already visited the place to have a general idea of the locale. Nonetheless, it was not as convenient as urban areas, as there was a severe shortage of accommodation and restaurants…

Admittedly, there were the ardent ones who straightaway set up tents on the island awaiting the opening, but ended up sleepless by the howling. Some were even scared back to Pattaya.

At present, the outward dispersion of Spirit Qi signaled the commencement of the remains in three days.

As everyone rushed to the seaside, Li Xianyi immediately rose to the sky to manage the matters in the Golden Foundation. The internal meeting about the participation of the Foundation in the remains concluded with Li Xianyi’s insistence in joining the contest.

The old man himself loved to keep abreast with contemporary events. When every other organization joined forces in protest of Class A’s involvement in the remains and foreign affairs, the old man stood firm on fulfilling his own duties.

It was understandable, though. With a peacekeeper in place, the Foundation could guarantee the safety of Pattaya in such special times.

However, it was only recently that the various organizations learned about Li Xianyi’s participation in the remains. According to his words, he was only a member of the audience and not a participant.

Even when the Golden Foundation was engaged in a confrontation, it was okay, the old man would simply stand aside to watch and would not provide any help to either side.

Then which idiot would pick a fight?!

Who would confront the Golden Foundation when their own Class A was by their side?!

Actually, Li Xianyi’s presence alone was already aggressive…

But he was not usually like this. Why was there a sudden change in his personality?!

In the past, the Foundation was thought to be made up of a bunch of passionate morons, who could be easily manipulated in public disputes. But now, their opponents were scared…

On the other side, the Heavenly Network was even harder to deal with. As the representative of the entire population of Chinese Practitioners, Nie Ting felt shame at taking orders from others. He knew too well about the rule of the survival of the fittest.

Therefore, he was totally absent from that meeting…

Your protests and leagues were none of my interest.

Back then, there was a conspiracy on trying to elect the Heavenly Network into the Council of an international league, so that they could be controlled under internal regulations.

But their long wait was only met with a message in Chinese from Nie Ting. “According to the almanac, today is not a day for outings.”

It took the crowd half an hour to figure out the meaning of “almanac”, and another half an hour to understand what it meant to be “not a day for outings”…

My goodness! Can you please find a better excuse?

Then, most of them rejected the proposal of waiting any longer. Every organization had their own dignity to uphold, not as individuals, but as teams. How could they appease their Practitioners should they disgrace their establishment?

Furthermore, that excuse could be applied on any day…

The message was clear. With two Class A’s on hand, the Heavenly Network had no intention to be restrained by their worldly regulations.

Nonetheless, the Network had its own worries as well. Before the commencement of the remains, the Heavenly Network was already under pressure from various organizations. While teams were sent to the remains, others were dispatched to the borders, waiting for orders in the most peripheral cities. However, it remained uncertain whether there would be intruders in Nie Ting’s or Chen Baili’s absence.

It was widely known that risk-taking was never the priority of the Network.

During the grand-scale power contest, the Heavenly Network had too large an area to defend but too few manpower on standby.

That was the exact reason for the Network’s urgency in nurturing new forces. As a result, they would rather improve their members’ capabilities with incomplete cultivation techniques before refinement than follow suit.

Moreover, they had a stunning number of hundreds of thousands of fighters. In comparison, even the second largest organization in the world had only tens of thousands with varying abilities at the moment.

In conclusion, the Heavenly Network had a clear advantage over external associations.

Some places suffered from a small population in spite of their cultivation heritage…

Whereas others, like North America, boasted a large population but had non-existent cultivation history…

Everyone was looking for their own solutions, even some had cast their eyes on stealing other people’s heritage. What they needed were techniques to improve their capabilities.

In the end, Nie Ting and Chen Baili did not come to Pattaya. Many organizations were aware of Li Xianyi’s visit to the Capital of China before his arrival in Pattaya, but no one knew what kind of agreement the Golden Foundation and the Heavenly Network had reached.

However, it did not mean the Golden Foundation was the sure winner. Due to the increasing size of the remains, it was getting more difficult to locate the relic in the enormous core region.

At the same time, other organizations had no obligation to surrender the remains to the Foundation. Since there were no perfect plans in the world, everyone was awaiting unexpected situations. As participants were allocated random positions in the remains, how could Li Xianyi protect all of them?

After all, there were creatures in the remains.

In the month before, there appeared souls with abilities of up to peak-Class B in the Cuban remains. Who the hell knew what would happen in the Koh Chang remains?!

Thus, people could only seek solace in knowing that they would have Li Xianyi in the remains to deal with the strongest beings there…

Meanwhile, the Pattaya Gulf was crowded with throngs of Practitioners. It was then that a problem arose… there were an insufficient number of boats…
