The gazes, waves of killing intent, and oppressive auras made Zuo Dao, following behind Wang Xiaoqiang, tremble with fear. Wang Xiaoqiang could also sense those murderous intentions and pressures, yet he remained unfazed, chatting and laughing with Chang Xiuyue.

He knew clearly in his heart that these people had no personal grudges against him; they were all jealous because of Chang Xiuyue's favor towards him and wanted to kill him. But he also knew that once he registered as a contestant, he would be under official protection, and no one would dare to kill him in public.

"Xiuyue, who were that father and son just now?" Wang Xiaoqiang asked.

"That's Chu Tianhua, the Domain Lord of the Milky Way Region, and his son, Chu Tiange..."

"Chu Tianhua and Chu Tiange, they're cut from the same cloth... Chu Tianhua actively sought out Great Grandfather for a drink. I think he's like a weasel giving a New Year greeting to a chicken, up to no good..."

"Anyway, they're not good people. I hope Great Grandfather doesn't engage with them, but he never listens to me... sigh..." Chang Xiuyue sighed regretfully.

While speaking, Wang Xiaoqiang and Zuo Dao lined up to register.

Zuo Dao registered first. Wang Xiaoqiang noticed that after registering, Zuo Dao, unlike in the Territory City eliminations, was not assigned a place for food and lodging, which puzzled him. He thought that the government officer didn't understand Zuo Dao's identity, so he asked the officer sitting behind the registration platform, "May I ask, doesn't Wind Rain Pavilion provide food and lodging for its people?"

"Wind Rain Pavilion's assassins aren't provided with food and lodging." The officer said, waving Zuo Dao off, indicating that he could leave. Then the officer asked Wang Xiaoqiang, "What's your name?"

"Wang Xiaoqiang." Wang Xiaoqiang reported his name.

Upon hearing the name Wang Xiaoqiang, a row of government officers behind the registration platform looked up at him. They had obviously heard of Wang Xiaoqiang's fame and his performance in the current Territory City elimination tournament. The officer in charge of registration stared at Wang Xiaoqiang and asked, "Are you the Wang Xiaoqiang who has beheaded over five hundred criminals?"

"Yes," Wang Xiaoqiang replied calmly.

Hearing this, those government officers looked confused. This Wang Xiaoqiang reporting his name only had a Great Luo Golden Immortal Third Liquid Realm cultivation base. This cultivation base was at the bottom, not only in the Realm Capital elimination but even in the Territory City elimination.

How could someone with such a cultivation base break all previous records in the Territory City elimination and achieve unprecedented high scores?

The officer couldn't quite believe it, so he sought further confirmation, asking, "Are you Wang Xiaoqiang, the administrator from Wind Rain Pavilion of the Anyang Region?"

Wang Xiaoqiang said nothing more, revealing his Wind Rain Pavilion badge.

After seeing the badge, the officer finally confirmed that the Wang Xiaoqiang in front of him was indeed the legendary Wang Xiaoqiang. Instantly, he squeezed out a smile and handed over a jade slip to him:

"Haha, Deacon Wang, hello. We have provided you with board and lodging. This is your jade pass for Biluo Heaven Restaurant. You can now go and check-in there. We hope you achieve good results in the second round of the competition."

Clearly, Wang Xiaoqiang and Zuo Dao's status in the Realm Capital wasn't as significant as it was in the Territory City, so much so that Zuo Dao, being an assassin, was not provided with food and lodging.

Fortunately, Wang Xiaoqiang, as an administrator of Wind Rain Pavilion, counts as intermediate-level and naturally has food and lodging provided, with the location at 'Biluo Heaven' Restaurant in Biluo City,

Biluo Heaven Restaurant obviously bore such a name with something extraordinary about it.

Biluo Heaven Restaurant is the most luxurious and high-end restaurant in Biluo City. It's said that this restaurant wasn't always called that; it used to be called the Great Immortal Welcoming Restaurant.

When the Biluo Heavenly Emperor was young, he lived in this Great Immortal Welcoming Restaurant for a long time and, according to legend, met the woman he loved most in this restaurant, leaving a deep impression on him.

After this restaurant was renovated and rebuilt, the Biluo Heavenly Emperor personally inscribed the name for the Great Immortal Welcoming Restaurant, renaming it "Biluo Heaven." At that time, the Biluo Heavenly Emperor had already become the ruler of the entire plane. His authority was the will of the entire plane.

Biluo Heaven then became a shining pearl, with accommodations for official competitions always arranged at Biluo Heaven. This time for the Realm Capital eliminations was no different, except that Biluo Heaven has limited space and can't provide accommodation for all thousand contestants; only those with status were accommodated.

These people include the children of Domain Lords, offspring of well-known great sect leaders, children of super tribal chiefs, heirs or administrators of Wind Rain Pavilion.

Assassins like Zuo Dao have no right to accommodation.

Zuo Dao, not receiving food and lodging, felt a bit dejected. Wang Xiaoqiang patted him on the shoulder and comforted him, "No worries, you can stay with me. Come on..."

At this moment, as Wang Xiaoqiang, Zuo Dao, and Chang Xiuyue were about to leave the registration area, someone blocked their way,

It was none other than Chu Tiange.

Chu Tiange stood before them with a hostile expression, and beside him was a brocade-robed youth at the Great Luo Golden Immortal Seventh Liquid Realm, whose face was unfriendly and expression arrogant, exuding an air of superiority.

"What do you want?" Wang Xiaoqiang raised his eyebrows.

"How dare you, Wang Xiaoqiang! You see the Young City Lord and yet you refuse to kneel?!" Chu Tiange pointed at the brocade-robed youth, barking at Wang Xiaoqiang like a clap of thunder in his voice.

This shout drew everyone's attention, including the row of government officers behind the registration desk, and Chu Tianhua and Chang Tianfeng standing in the distance.

Wang Xiaoqiang was immediately angered, glaring at the brocade-robed youth, he sneered, "Young City Lord? What a joke of a Young City Lord, and you want a dignified Wind Rain Pavilion administrator to kneel to him?"

Then Wang Xiaoqiang turned his gaze to Chu Tiange and said, "Kid, watch your words. I represent the Wind Rain Pavilion. Does someone from Wind Rain Pavilion need to kneel to a Young City Lord?"

Chu Tiange stalled, then smirked coldly, "You should look carefully. This isn't just any Young City Lord; he is the son of Fang Shaocheng, Lord of Biluo City in the Realm Capital..."

As Chu Tiange said this, he pointed to the ground beneath them, "He is the Young City Lord here."

Chu Tiange's meaning was clear; it was their territory.

Wang Xiaoqiang listened to this, and looked at Chu Tiange with the gaze of watching a child, then shifted his gaze to Fang Shaocheng, smiling wryly, "Lord of Biluo City in the Realm Capital's son, Fang Shaocheng, right?"

"Correct." Fang Shaocheng lifted his head arrogantly and said.

"I'm an administrator of Wind Rain Pavilion from Anyang Region. Do I need to kneel to you?" Wang Xiaoqiang asked.

"I never said that, it was him?" Fang Shaocheng clearly wasn't as foolish as Chu Tiange; he pointed at Chu Tiange.

Chu Tiange was a good friend of Fang Shaocheng, but he had been stewing with anger, thinking about how to teach Wang Xiaoqiang a lesson to win Chang Xiuyue.

Then he happened to come across Fang Shaocheng and thought to use Fang Shaocheng's identity as Young City Lord to frighten Wang Xiaoqiang, making him kneel in front of everyone to humiliate him and make Chang Xiuyue feel ashamed, thereby undermining their relationship.

But he had not expected things to go contrary to his wishes; Wang Xiaoqiang was not intimidated at all.

"Chu Tiange, what you just said was heard clearly by everyone..." Wang Xiaoqiang's gaze turned to Chu Tiange,

As an administrator of Wind Rain Pavilion, of course, he was knowledgeable about the power levels and relationships among various major forces in the Biluo Realm. As an administrator of Wind Rain Pavilion, he did not need to kneel to Fang Shaocheng, even to Fang Yuntian, the City Lord of the Realm Capital.

Wang Xiaoqiang represents Wind Rain Pavilion, and Chu Tiange's words clearly belittle Wind Rain Pavilion's status.

Food can be eaten indiscriminately, but words must not be spoken recklessly.

If Chu Tiange's words reached the ears of the Wind Rain Pavilion leaders, they might demand an explanation from Chu Tianhua. (To be continued.
