Yang Yan was taken aback for a moment, then helplessly shook his head and said somewhat speechlessly:

"I say, can't you use your brain to think logically?"

"A place like this won't even let you make phone calls, so they're definitely not going to let you fly up there, right?"

"Besides, there are so many people here, each with extraordinary skills."

"If I use some tricks, all these people's attention will turn to us."

"Speaking of which, you don't want them to look at you like a monkey, do you?"

Just as Yang Yan finished speaking, a Fatty appeared out of nowhere beside him.

"Boss, I finally found you! I didn't expect so many people to show up today; it really gave me a fright!"

Yang Yan frowned and jokingly scolded:

"How did you find us, you lazy Fatty? There are so many people here, I walked around in circles and couldn't find you guys. I'm exhausted."

"By the way, where's Situ Tingting? Wasn't she with you?"

Fatty chuckled, looking proud as he said:

"Heh, finding people isn't my forte, but in such a small area, finding someone is quite easy for me."

Looking at Fatty's smug expression, Yang Yan couldn't help but curl his lip:

"So, last night Situ Tingting called me and said there's a big move here again. Do you know something?"

Fatty nodded quickly:

"Yes! I know a bit. This time a few big shots came here!"

At this, Fatty looked quite excited.

"What big shots? Speak clearly, don't be so vague."

Yang Yan knew Fatty well enough.

Though this guy appeared sleazy, his heart was actually quite meticulous.

This was evident from him collecting intelligence on the island days ago and immediately teaming up with him at first opportunity.

Moreover, from the past two days' actions, Yang Yan even suspected he might have known his identity from the start.

After all, while he hadn't explicitly hidden his identity, not everyone knew the name of the Four Emperors Moonlight.

At the very least, that one called Golden Cauldron hadn't risen to that level.

"Let's not talk about those foreign old monsters, just within Huaxia, many senior figures came!"

"You've met Little Celestial Master Zhang Xie'an from Dragon Tiger Mountain. But even his mentor is here this time."

Fatty said, full of excitement.

"His mentor? Are you saying the Elder Celestial Master from Dragon Tiger Mountain came?"

Hearing Fatty's words, Yang Yan exclaimed, flabbergasted.

That's the Elder Celestial Master of Dragon Tiger Mountain!

People of that level are essentially the stabilizing force of Huaxia.

Let alone abroad, even within the country, they scarcely make appearances.

And someone of that caliber actually came here?!

"Who said the Elder Celestial Master came? The person who came isn't him, but Zhang Xie'an's mentor, Thunderfire Qilin Bai Yuanming."

Fatty said, his face full of admiration.

"Tsk—so it's not the Elder Celestial Master who's coming! Why are you all worked up then?"

Upon hearing that it wasn't the Elder Celestial Master who came, Yang Yan's interest waned immediately.

As for who this Thunderfire Qilin Bai Yuanming was, Yang Yan couldn't care less.

"Boss, do you really not know, or are you playing dumb? That's Thunderfire Qilin Bai Yuanming!"

Seeing Yang Yan's reaction, Fatty looked at him in shock, as if seeing a freak.

"What? Is this person famous or something?"

Yang Yan asked in confusion.

Actually, seeing Fatty's demeanor, even an idiot would know that this Bai Yuanming character was anything but ordinary.

However, Yang Yan genuinely hadn't heard of the name before.

"That person is one of the Titled Thunderfire Qilin! You have to know, that senior is from two generations ago."

"You know how rare it was to obtain a title back in those days!"

Fatty's eyes shone with admiration as he spoke.

"Oh? A Titled powerhouse from two generations ago?"

Hearing this, Yang Yan immediately became serious.

In the Hidden World, aside from those with unique titles, anyone with the strength could earn a title.

Of course, these titles also had varying levels of prestige.

To receive a title, one must have strength above SSS level and should have a distinct trait.

Or in other words, the person who receives the title must be the strongest in that particular ability.

Take Thunderfire Qilin Bai Yuanming for example.

To earn that title just shows that he's arguably the best in wielding thunderfire techniques worldwide.

Otherwise, he wouldn't qualify at all.

And a title like Yang Yan's Moonlight differs from theirs.

Due to its ancient legacy, it's even harder to obtain.

"Such a level of competition isn't small already, but it shouldn't be significant enough to draw out those Titled powerhouses, right?"

"So tell me, what's this all about?"

Yang Yan thought for a moment and looked intently at Fatty, waiting for his response.

"Boss, you really are clever!"

Fatty immediately gave a thumbs up and beamed:

"The reason for this is just because both Saraf and the Heaven and Earth Society have something the other wants."

"Yet neither party wishes to hand over what they've got. Hence, the competition now."

"However, as more and more forces got involved, the items brought out became rarer, and now both Saraf and the Heaven and Earth Society find themselves losing control over the situation."

Fatty couldn't help but chuckle sarcastically at this point.

As if two parties losing control over the matter brought him some joy.

Whether there's more behind this, Yang Yan was unsure.

"Get to the point!"

Yang Yan stated coldly.

Fatty hurriedly responded:

"Yes, yes, the point! The point is, now even larger forces have stepped in."

"They have equally rare items, including Huaxia's River Map in their possession."

"So currently, these forces are discussing how this competition should be measured."

"After all, you can't just give out such items as prizes to anyone who participates."

Yang Yan frowned deeper and asked in a stern voice:

"Have they come to any conclusions yet?"

"Their conclusion is the competition will proceed as planned, but the final prize will only be the Innate Eight Trigrams Diagram."

"After it's all over here, they'll choose another location, where the Lance of Longinus will be up for grabs."

"And the same process applies for all other items."

Yang Yan slightly raised an eyebrow, puzzled, and said:

"Oh? So they plan to hold many such competitions?"

"This isn't the Olympics, so what's their motive for doing this?"
