Ye Bingwen and Ye Zisu immediately returned the salute. At this time, Lan Ling also walked forward to welcome them after Mu Sen. This would represent that the Lan Family had a close relations.h.i.+p with the people of t.i.ta now.

“Minister Ye, welcome to t.i.tat.i.tan Star. We have the same beautiful sceneries as on Earth in this Star. You would definitely like them. Zisu, you should stay for a longer period this time.”

“That’s a definite.”

Lan Ling and Ye Zisu had a rather private conversation and were signalling that she had some form of special attention from Lan Ling.

A few large commerce organisations were looking at Ye Zisu with jealousy. However, there was nothing they could do. The t.i.tat.i.tan Star now had power and confidence. They could choose whichever company they wanted to favour.

Those that were more jealous were the amba.s.sadors from various countries. They were already cursing in their heart. When they arrived in this place while representing their countries, they had not received such a level of special treatment!

However they were also speechless. What kind of relations.h.i.+p did they have?

They had a relations.h.i.+p that originated from fighting together side by side in war! If you were to say anything, others could shut you up with just a sentence: When t.i.tat.i.tan Star needed you, where were you?

Investments in relations.h.i.+ps were priceless. It would be especially so when it was done when the other party needed help the most.

When Jasper, Pila and the group of people saw these scenes, their heart started bearing faster. The rights to Super Gravity Energy Mineral!

“Brother Yan, if there is an opportunity later, you have to introduce us to Miss Ye!.”

Yan Xiaosu patted Jasper’s shoulders and said,” Don’t panic, I will introduce you to her in the gathering tonight. We are only here to take a look and it isn’t our turn to do so yet.”

“Yes, That’s exactly what I mean!”

Yan Xiaosu smiled and said,” Rest a.s.sured. Don’t forget that we are a company now and should be united as one. If there are benefits, no one will be left behind.”

Yan Xiaosu started to act rich again but this wasn’t on purpose. It was just that he could not appear too weak in front of these rich people.

Being low key would also be dependent on the method. One shouldn’t be so humble that people would step on you like you were a shadow. These people played together most of the times and were real brothers who wouldn’t backstab each other. However once it was about business, if you still treated them as nice people, one would truly be a fool!

Soon, the reporters from Earth walked towards the party. Ye Zisu and Yan Xiaosu blinked at each other. Ye Bingwen smiled and stopped. He took the initiative to extend his hands to Yan Xiaosu and said,” Little Yan, why didn’t your father come this time?”

“My father is hosting the discussions for the new city. The timeline was too tight and he couldn’t make it here. Please forgive us.” Yan Xiaosu immediately replied.

“Hehe, Great. Let’s talk again at night.” After Ye Bingwen had shown his stand, he continued to speak with the reporters.

Soon, they arrived at the outside of the Starport. The most luxurious team of cars were already in place to welcome them.

Just when everyone thought that this welcome ceremony was over.

Honk—

Suddenly, the sound of the horn sounded, followed by the roar of the battle drums.

Those who knew what was happening knew that this meant the t.i.tan was arriving!

Instantly, the whole crowd quiet down!

Rara Durai’s shadow appeared on the path. On the 2 sides of Rara Durai, there were 2 guards wearing armor on each side with heavy weapons in their hands. Behind them, there were 4 more guards who were hitting the battle drums and blowing the horn.

The salute of the t.i.tan!

Rara Durai saw Ye Zisu instantly. She was the sister of Ada.

It was the first time for many seeing the giants and they were in awe.

Ye Bingwen took a deep breath and was finally able to suppress his emotions. Luckily, his daughter had told him about the various ceremonies of the giants previously. Therefore, he didn’t embarra.s.s himself this time. He followed the routine and expressed greetings to the t.i.tan.

Rara Durai had made a special trip for this. He couldn’t appear for other occasions as he wasn’t in charge of those projects. However he knew that Ye Zisu would be here too. If he could appear, he would definitely be able to provide some a.s.sistance to her.

All along, the t.i.tan was the spiritual leader of the people of t.i.ta and was in a superior position. His influence was widespread but he rarely had any interactions with the humans. When the vice-president of Astina Federation was here for a discussion, he only had a short conversation with the t.i.tan on the last day. A lot of huge organisations with backgrounds had wanted to establish a relations.h.i.+p with the t.i.tan but didn’t have a way to do so.

This time, the t.i.tan had taken the initiative to appear at the Starport. This was truly showing the highest respect.

How good was their relations.h.i.+ps?

Among all the people, Jasper and his group were the most composed. With the example of Brother Yan previously, they felt that it was only natural when they saw what was happening now.

The amba.s.sadors from various countries were truly in awe. The eyes of those who could think fast flickered and were re-a.s.sessing Ye Bingwen and his group of people. This might be an opportunity for them to unravel the situation on t.i.tat.i.tan Star. At the side of the people of t.i.ta, the situation seemed to be impenetrable. However if Earth had a good relation with them…

During the dinner banquet, it was an open welcome ceremony. The media, amba.s.sadors from various countries, representatives of the commerce realm had all received invitations. Ye Bingwen was enthusiastically sought after. Representatives from various places had made it clear that they would fully support Ye Bingwen’s discussions on t.i.tat.i.tan Star. In addition, they also proposed multiple collaboration projects to Ye Bingwen.

Ye Bingwen could truly feel that it was different this time. Only when one was strong could he earn real respect. However when it was about collaboration, his brain became calmer and clearer and as he handled the various aspects well. Following which, there would naturally be qualified teams to a.s.sess if there was a need for collaboration. It was easy to imagine that the results of this t.i.tat.i.tan Star trip would soon spread to the Solar System. This would greatly lift his influence in the Solar System. One should know that although the Solar System Federation was one of the 10 permanent members in name, the Solar System Federation did not have any influence on international affairs for a very long time.

Soon, it was time for the private banquet. This was a small scale gathering and was held inside the mansion. Lan Ling, Mu Sen and others had already partic.i.p.ated in it. In the eyes of others, this would be a signal for a closer discussion.

The other people were a little jealous of Earth. t.i.tat.i.tan Star had wanted to establish a friendly diplomatic example for all and the Earth had struck the lottery.

Jasper and his group of people had also joined the gathering. These rights were enough to make those Commerce Organisations outside jumping in anger. The gathering itself wasn’t anything much with the format being rather common and wasn’t extravagant in any way. There weren’t even any beautiful ladies who served alcohol. However, this had nothing to do with the format or the level of extravagance. It was all about connections. Those who could be part of this gathering were all those who could influence the direction of the Star in the future. As long as one could talk to these people and had a photograph together, he/she would be able to obtain many conveniences on the t.i.tat.i.tan Star. If they could just obtain one or two pieces of news from this gathering…

What was a business opportunity to earn lots of money? This was it!

Ye Zisu took the effort to meet Jasper and his men. However with Yan Xiaosu’s reminders before meeting them, student Ye was natural in behaving like a G.o.ddess.

Everyone also realised that the t.i.tan had treated Ye Zisu specially. Who had said that this group of people were idiots? Moreover, the companies who obtained the rights to the Super Energy Mineral ores were OMG and KING Company and these were because of the genius designer in front of them. In addition, the spatial movement project was also the hottest topic for discussion in current times. The Solar System Federation had been tougher within the Milky Way Alliance recently. With the technology in their hands, they would also have the rights to speak.

All these were related to the girl in front of them.

It was a pity that Ye Zisu did not give them the opportunity to speak much. After just a short meeting, she brought Yan Xiaosu inside to discuss about things and left the group of rich men behind by themselves. However, Jasper and the rest didn’t mind at all. They didn’t have such treatments on t.i.tat.i.tan Star previously. Initially, they were only here to play. It was unexpected that they could achieve something here. The feedback from the internals of their organisations had already been received. Basically, it meant for them to be fully responsible.

This had allowed these rich men to feel that they were valued for the first time. Moreover, they could even feel the surprise of those people inside their organisation who were looking down on them. This was truly too awesome!

For this, they had to do a good job!

Within the Abyss, everyone had encountered more than 1 wave of attacks. Moreover, the Zerg might ambush them anytime. Nonetheless, everyone had great performances. Some of them even started moving towards the inner areas of the Abyss calmly. They clearly knew that they had to struggle and outdo themselves. If their results in killing Zerg were great, they would definitely be valued.

The top end resources in Elite Academy were also limited. Specialisation in mecha was one of them. To receive higher authorisation, they would then have to prove that they had the strength.

Moreover, the news from headquarters were that there was already one student who went missing due to him being not sharp enough when faced with an emergency. No one knew whether the student was dead or alive now.

Usually in such cases, if no one knew if he was dead or alive, he was basically dead.

This person’s name was w.a.n.g Zheng.

Jiang Feng did not hold any taboos and did not make it clear to these young brats as they themselves didn’t understand it clearly either. After all, the situation of w.a.n.g Zheng couldn’t be hidden and could serve as a reminder.

The trials would continue. When most of the people heard of the news, they were on higher alert. At the same time, it had dispelled the thoughts of those who wanted to enter deeper into the Abyss blindly. Their brains were clearer now. If it was easy for them in a 1 vs 1 or even 1 vs 2, it didn’t mean that it would remain the same in the future. The deeper they went, the greater the danger.

As a warrior, a clear judgment of one’s battle strength was also important.

One had to say that the reminder of Jiang Feng was timely. These students were all full of confidence.. Moreover, after acclimatising for a few days, they would have felt that the Abyss was only so.

However for those who knew w.a.n.g Zheng, they were in shock. When Olivios heard about it, he was truly stunned. This was because he believed that this sort of stuff would never happen to w.a.n.g Zheng given his ability to think on the spot.

However, even if it was so, Olivios only had a moment of doubt. When a target disappeared, Olivios was looking for his next target like a wolf.

Achilles found it hard to believe but the environment he was in didn’t allow him to think too much. He did not really see w.a.n.g Zheng as an enemy. Even if there was compet.i.tion between them, it was only for motivating himself and lifting himself higher. Achilles’ ability to see the big picture was much broader. He felt that it was a good sign for the development of Solar System with the rise of so many people. He felt that the stronger w.a.n.g Zheng, Lear, Lie Xin and the rest were, the better it would be. This was because they all represented the Solar System. However, he had not expected w.a.n.g Zheng to meet with a mishap at the first stage of the Solar System Federation moving forward.

Lear was undoubtedly the happiest when he heard of this news. However, Lear was also the one with the strongest doubt. Would w.a.n.g Zheng die so easily?

It was a clean ending that he died. Although he had already set his goals further, w.a.n.g Zheng was someone who gave him a headache previously. It might be better for him to disappear.

Lear also continued to move deeper. His Ares Art was really suitable for this environment. One had to practise his cultivation technique every day. However, it didn’t mean that there would be improvement. Most of the time, it was to maintain the current form. However when he was in the Abyss, Lear could clearly feel that the Ares Technique was improving. It was as though this world was created for him. One had to grab firmly every stage of change of any cultivation technique. This was because they were hoping for such moments when they were practicing every day.

As for Fatty Luo, the news of not knowing if w.a.n.g Zheng was dead or alive had awakened the sleepy fatty.
