Chapter 1402 1402: Disqualified!
Qin Feng sighed deeply upon hearing the words and said, "Ah, it seems it still won't work! Since that's the case, let's just forget it! I deeply regret that our personal grievances have brought trouble to the Round Table Conference, and it's only right that we don't participate from Heavenly King Mountain.""What??"
The man in the suit behind George exclaimed in surprise at this moment.
George was equally puzzled, squinting his eyes and said, "I seem to have mentioned earlier, that as long as five million spirit stones are paid, Heavenly King Mountain can continue to participate in the Round Table Conference."
"Cough, cough, Mr. George, you also know that Heavenly King Mountain has sold off all its assets this past year, and now we simply can't raise that much money, so let's just forget about it!" Qin Feng said with a helpless expression.
"But, you're not short of money!" George continued, "You not only have ample assets in the Mortal World, but you also have a Spirit Gathering Array in the East Sea; five million spirit stones shouldn't be too hard for you, should it?"
"As they say, money doesn't grow on trees, right? Saving as much as possible is best." Qin Feng sighed again, "Besides, that money belongs to the Heavenly King Palace, not Heavenly King Mountain! If I transfer the money, then the Heavenly King Palace will have nothing left but soup! It's unfair to the Heavenly King Palace, don't you agree?"
"..."
George was at a loss, not knowing what to do.
No one would have guessed that he would rather let the once-glorious Heavenly King Mountain fall out of the nine top organizations than pay the money.
This was completely unexpected.
In the current chaotic world, money, or spirit stones, are the most important.
Previously, those who disrupted the Round Table Conference faced severe punishment, but now everyone only wants money.
Money can solve these problems.
Therefore, the purpose of their visit was to ask Qin Feng for money.
Denying Heavenly King Mountain and Bright Holy Sect from the conference was only a small threat to them.
No one expected him to say he won't participate, and just decided not to!
Does he not want his identity and status?
Giving up past glory and honor?
"Is there anything else?"
Qin Feng asked George, obviously indicating it was time for them to leave.
George spread his hands in confusion and asked Qin Feng, "I really want to know, why exactly?"
"I told you, money doesn't grow on trees."
Qin Feng smiled.
"..."
George and his entourage had no choice but to stand up and leave.
At the door, George again said to Qin Feng, "Believe me, you will regret making this decision; this year's conference is different from previous ones, you will truly regret it."
"Well, safe travels, no need to see you out."
Qin Feng replied.
George and his entourage left in frustration.
The hall quieted down.
Qin Feng looked at Joanna and said, "Let's not participate in the Round Table Conference; it might leave the bishops of the Bright Church displeased, but trust me."
"Well, I had already given up last night." Joanna said.
Indeed.
That day, God's Society announced that Heavenly King Mountain and Bright Holy Sect had their conference qualifications revoked!
This immediately caused a sensation!
All around Dragon Bay Island, everyone was discussing the matter.
Heavenly King Mountain, ranked number one in the world last time, now unexpectedly disqualified this time!
Bright Holy Sect, which has a profound influence in Europe and America and deep roots, also missed the Round Table Conference for the first time.
It's truly a major upheaval!
As for replacing Bright Holy Sect and Heavenly King Mountain in the conference, it was Medicine God Valley and Heavenly King Palace!
Everyone strongly endorses Medicine God Valley.
Medicine God Valley had already established itself in the world with elixirs, especially in the current wartime era, the value of elixirs has doubled, gradually growing into a top-tier within the second-line world organizations.
But the selection of Heavenly King Palace left everyone bewildered and caused the greatest controversy.
Although the upstart Heavenly King Palace brought ten thousand people to participate in the Round Table Conference, jokingly referred to as bumpkins, their true strength is undeniable.
The Hidden World's Changbai Mountain, Qinling, Shu Mountain, Kunlun Mountain, four of the Five Great Holy Lands have all surrendered to Heavenly King Palace.
Therefore.
Principally speaking, Heavenly King Palace is more suited for selection into the nine top organizations than Medicine God Valley.
However.
The events of yesterday have become the center of attention.
Almost everyone knows that Qin Feng is not only the new Heavenly King of Heavenly King Mountain but also the Hall Master of Heavenly King Palace, holding dual identities!
Since that's the case.
Then why only punish his Heavenly King Mountain by canceling its conference qualification?
Why not cancel Heavenly King Palace's qualification too?
Instead, it was promoted to the world's nine top organizations!
This maneuver provoked dissatisfaction, with many expressing resentment on behalf of Hell Holy Sect and Dragon King Hall Second Prince.
However.
The Second Prince didn't seem to mind; rather, he was pleased.
In the hotel.
The Second Prince took a puff of his cigar, revealing a slight smile, and said, "Wonderful! God's Society made a brilliant move! Due to Qin Feng, Heavenly King Mountain's conference qualification got canceled, but Heavenly King Palace took its place. Such a cunning strategy, Heavenly King Mountain might want to kill him in retaliation."
"Indeed!"
Alongside him, the Sect Hierarch of Hell Holy Sect, Mo'er, had a sullen face as he said, "Allowing Heavenly King Palace to participate doesn't quell my resentment!"
"Haha, don't worry, Sect Hierarch. After the Round Table Conference, Qin Feng will surely be driven out by Heavenly King Mountain. Then, conflict between Heavenly King Mountain and Heavenly King Palace is inevitable, at which point we can profit from the infighting and destroy them, since he refuses to pay? Hahaha, his Spirit Gathering Array in the East Sea will be ours then."
The Second Prince chuckled, lifting a red goblet from the table, and clinking glasses with Hell Holy Sect's Sect Hierarch.
The clear sound of clinking echoed from their goblets.
Also clinking glasses was Mr. George from God's Society.
Mr. George sipped fine wine with a smile and said, "Then let's stick with the plan. Since he refuses to acknowledge the opportunity, he shouldn't blame us for being unkind."
...
Rhodes Peninsula.
Upon hearing the news that Heavenly King Mountain was disqualified from the Round Table Conference, the clan leader nearly went mad, angered to the point of almost spitting blood, he called Qin Feng at the base, shouting for Qin Feng to come back and give an explanation.
"Don't worry, I'll be back in a few days, no need to rush."
Qin Feng said on the other end of the call.
"No rush? So now I understand why you called me here alone, there was already a plan to replace Heavenly King Mountain, you despicable scoundrel, you better come back now!!" The clan leader yelled, on the verge of spitting blood.
After saying this, there's no sound from Qin Feng's end; he obviously hung up the call again.
"Damn it!!!"
The clan leader cursed, once again smashing the phone to the ground, stomping on it until it broke.
This was his hundredth smashed phone...
