Master of Monster Synthesis

Qin Shou sat at the main seat, his gaze sweeping across everyone present.

The Long Family, Leng Xinlan, Yan Bo.

The Hu Family, Hu Quan.

The Quan Family, Quan Zhqing, Quan Zuo.

The Su Family, Ma Family, She Family, Yang Family, Hou Family, Tu Family, Liu Family, Ji Family, Zhu Family...

Fengshen Group, Fang Fu.

Liao Zhai Group, Meng Sanxing.

Search God Group, Tang Cong.

Mountain and Sea Group, Wei Sheng.

Aside from the Fengmo Group and Zeus Group who withdrew from the Federation, representatives from the Federation Twelve Guardian Families and the four world-class corporations had all gathered here.

Among those present, except for Qin Shou, all were Unbreakable Realm Five-star strong individuals and above.

The gazes cast toward Qin Shou held contempt, defiance, appreciation, and undisguised hostility.

The atmosphere in the council hall quickly turned delicate.

Suddenly, a discordant sneer broke the silence of the council hall.

"Ha, Qin Shou, I've heard you're in charge of the follow-up affairs for Dragon Island. Why aren't you saying anything?

Oh right, in the presence of elders, what right does a junior have to speak? Even if Principal Qin ordered it, feeling insecure due to a lack of strength is perfectly normal."

At that moment, a faint smile finally appeared on Qin Shou's otherwise calm visage.

Now this feels right!

Without a "troublemaker" showing up in occasions like this, it almost feels out of character.

Before he could reply, Leng Xinlan slammed her hand on the table and stood up, glaring at the skinny old man across from her.

"Quan Zhqing, watch your words!"

Quan Zhqing sneered, "What's this? He hasn't even become your Long Family's son-in-law yet, and you're already defending him?"

Beside him, the younger Quan Zuo chimed in, "Exactly. If not for showing face to the Long Family, that punk, who caused so much trouble for Quan Family's disciples back on Dragon Island, would've been dealt with long ago. How could he even have the chance to advance to the Unbreakable Realm?"

"You..."

Leng Xinlan clenched her fists tightly but saw Qin Shou suddenly wave his hand and say, "Alright, aunt, take a seat for now!"

In front of everyone, Leng Xinlan still respected Qin Shou enough to sit down, avoiding criticism of internal family disharmony.

Even though Qin Shou was not officially part of the Long Family yet.

Quan Zuo noticed Qin Shou speaking and remained indifferent.

"Qin Shou, I heard you sent all the Mechanical Monsters from Dragon Island to Beast Cultivation Main City. That wasn't very ethical, was it?"

Qin Shou chuckled lightly, "The crisis at Dragon Island was resolved by the Principal himself. Sending them to Beast Cultivation Main City—what's the problem with that?"

"There's certainly a problem. After all, Dragon Island is public property shared by all factions. Even if Principal Qin resolved the crisis, Beast Cultivation Main City shouldn't monopolize them."

Quan Zhqing stood, scanning the crowd, "What do you all think?"

The Su Family, Ma Family, Liu Family, Ji Family, and other family representatives, along with the four major corporations, all voiced their agreement.

"Indeed, we have no issue with Principal Qin taking the lion's share, but monopolizing them entirely is unreasonable."

"That's right, Qin Shou. You're still young and perhaps haven't grasped these dynamics. Dragon Island has always been public property shared by all of us. It's not something Beast Cultivation Main City can unilaterally decide."

"Qin Shou, since Principal Qin entrusted you with this responsibility, we won't bully a junior. Hand over eighty percent, and we'll call it even without putting pressure on you."

"I agree. Beast Cultivation Main City made great contributions and deserves a twenty percent share, but more than that wouldn't be fair."

The reason they had gathered at Dragon Island was simply because they caught the scent of profit.

Additionally, the Federation Twelve Families and the various corporations had complex relationships and shared interests, so naturally, they supported dividing the Mechanical Monsters of Dragon Island.

Looking at the utterly hypocritical faces in front of him, Qin Shou maintained a practiced fake smile.

"Hahaha, honestly, I think the same way. You know, for the Principal to dominate all the Mechanical Monsters—well, that's just too biased, isn't it?"

"Exactly. Since you also understand that your Principal's actions aren't fair, hurry up and return eighty percent of the Mechanical Monsters to us."

The moment Quan Zuo finished speaking, the entire council hall went silent.

Quan Zhqing's expression shifted, and he secretly cursed internally.

In their words, they could criticize Beast Cultivation Main City for being unethical, but never directly fault Principal Qin.

Though the difference seemed trivial, in essence, it was a world apart.

Criticizing Beast Cultivation Main City's misconduct was permissible for all.

But questioning the actions of Earth's Supreme Strong, Qin Long? No one dared.

Of course, if Qin Shou himself dared to make such remarks, the matter could only be handled internally by Beast Cultivation Main City, with outsiders unable to intervene.

But now the situation was...

"Bang!"

Suddenly, the long table in the council hall shattered under an immense force, Qin Shou's expression turned icy, his eyes radiating intense Blazing Light Energy.

"In front of so many people, daring to disrespect the Principal—this warrants punishment!"

As he finished speaking, Qin Shou's eyes erupted with blazing light, shooting out two searing beams. The council hall was instantly engulfed in a wave of heat, with flames flickering in the capsule-shaped room.

"Buzz!!"

The blazing beams arrived before Quan Zuo in the blink of an eye, the high-temperature energy contained within astonishing everyone present.

This kid has really advanced to the Unbreakable Realm Three Stars?

"Hmph!"

With a snort, Quan Zuo waved his hand, summoning a shield of emerald-green vines that easily deflected the blazing energy back.

Qin Shou raised his hand, absorbing the blazing energy into a warm glow that merged with his palm.

"Qin Shou, don't get carried away!" Quan Zuo bellowed.

Beside him, Quan Zhqing tugged on Quan Zuo's sleeve and whispered, "Stay calm. Don't fall into this kid's trap."

Quan Zuo sneered dismissively, "Relax, Qing. There aren't many people from Beast Cultivation Main City here, and Principal Qin won't personally intervene. This kid still can't do anything against me."

Pushing Quan Zhqing aside, Quan Zuo sneered coldly, "I've had enough of this kid for ages. After this, I'll simply go apologize to Principal Qin myself if necessary."

Watching the opponent's reaction, Qin Shou smiled in satisfaction.
