The Peerless Beauty Stuck With Me

Early the next morning, Tang Rao led his team, and Shi Pang led the Dark Moon Association's team, embarking on the journey to the Ten Thousand Buddha Temple.

However, Tang Rao's team now only had nine people. Xiao Yun went back to see Liu Mingyue yesterday, saying she would stay for two days and asked Tang Rao to notify her once they arrived.

By that time, Liu Mingyue would take Xiao Yun over directly.

Tang Rao could only say, "Having a big boss at the Immortal Emperor level taking care of you is really comfortable."

We need to travel for two days, but for an Immortal Emperor, one big space shift, and they might be there instantly.

A Monarch can't compare with an Immortal Emperor. The gap between a Monarch and an Immortal Emperor is even more vast. The biggest gap is indeed between a Monarch and an Immortal Emperor.

In the entire Land of Immortals, the total number of Immortal Emperors across all superpowers might only be around ten to twenty. But how about Monarchs? Even though they are rare and sound impressive, there are still many within those superpowers.

For a sect like the Ten Thousand Buddha Temple, the number of Monarchs might be over a hundred.

This kind of superpower has such deep foundations. After all, they've built up over hundreds or even thousands of years. Whether in resources or other connections, they're unmatched by ordinary sects.

"Mantis, you're going to be awesome now. Don't forget me in the future!" Shi Pang kept chattering in Tang Rao's ear as they walked.

Tang Rao: "..."

"Sect Master, stop it. Sect Master Tang is getting irritated. You're too annoying. Sect Master Tang, are you thirsty? Have some water." Koji pulled Shi Pang aside and came over to flatter.

"Damn, Koji, have some shame. I'm telling you, get lost and let me, as the Sect Master of the Dark Moon Association, do the flattering!" Shi Pang said angrily.

"Your flattery skills are too poor. Let me do it. I'm stronger, more experienced!" Koji shouted.

Tang Rao: "..."

As for the other members of the Dark Moon Association, they had no objections. If possible, they'd also want to join in the flattery.

But unlike Shi Pang, they weren't familiar with Tang Rao, nor were they as shameless as Koji...

…

Two days later, Tang Rao and his team arrived at the location of the Ten Thousand Buddha Temple.

The Ten Thousand Buddha Temple covers a vast area, with a gigantic mountain at its center, extending across thousands of mountains under its domain.

The reason it's called the Ten Thousand Buddha Temple is because within its range, there are thousands of mountains with tens of thousands of Buddha statues towering a hundred meters high.

Each Buddha statue is unique, and looking around, it's truly grand beyond comparison.

Even though Tang Rao was well-traveled, and had a strong mind, seeing these tens of thousands of Buddhas was infinitely awe-inspiring. Damn, this is a true Super Sect. Look at this grandeur, this magnificence; Kao Shan Sect really can't compare.

"Mantis, the Ten Thousand Buddha Temple is truly awesome," Shi Pang said, lifting his head.

He was also visiting the Ten Thousand Buddha Temple for the first time. Before, he had no chance to come, and even if he did, they wouldn't let him in. Plus, just one visit to the Transmission Array costs at least five hundred thousand Immortal Stones.

Space Teleportation arrays are convenient but extremely expensive, outrageously so.

These arrays are usually set up by Immortal Emperors from super sects, and all the proceeds go to these super sects, essentially making boatloads of money.

For example, in this sect conference, there are at least a thousand sects participating. Each sect has ten people, making ten thousand people. If we calculate the average cost per person for using the space transmission array as 300,000 Immortal Stones, that's three billion.

That's pure profit, directly divided among a few superpowers.

"Let's go in," Tang Rao nodded, pointing to the gathering spot by the side.

"Alright, we'll talk inside," Shi Pang responded and then walked toward the registration area.

Participating sects naturally need to register, and the registration fee, calculated per group, is one million per sect. With a thousand sects registering, that's another billion Immortal Stones.

The Ten Thousand Buddha Temple hosts a sect exchange conference and earns a considerable amount of Immortal Stones.

However, collecting money is understandable, considering they need to accommodate, arrange, and provide food and drink for so many people. Besides, a sect exchange conference isn't over in a day or two, so charging one million per sect doesn't seem too much to Tang Rao.

If it were up to him, he'd charge at least ten million.

He might even directly build a huge venue, charging ten million for seats at the back, fifty million for seats at the front, and a hundred million for VIP seats. That way, they'd definitely earn more money.

Unfortunately, Kao Shan Sect can't possibly host a sect exchange conference, at least not in the near future.

Kao Shan Sect just doesn't have enough space to accommodate so many people.

Plus, with insufficient strength, who would bother with you?

"Hello, I..."

"Sect name and a registration fee of one million Immortal Stones," the person at the registration desk interrupted Tang Rao before he could finish, looking quite unfriendly.

Tang Rao pursed his lips, feeling a bit displeased as he looked at the bald man in front of him.

But forget it, the Ten Thousand Buddha Temple is so awesome; it's only right for them to be a bit proud.

"Kao Shan Sect, here's one million Immortal Stones." Tang Rao didn't waste words, directly stating the sect's name and handing over a Space Ring.

The bald man at the registration desk wasted no time, starting to register, checking the Immortal Stones, and returning the Space Ring to Tang Rao while handing over a black-gold token with a number on it: 2046

"This is your contestant number and accommodation token. Head to mountain 2046, where someone will receive you," the bald man told Tang Rao.

"Thank you, you've been helpful," Tang Rao nodded.

The bald man was stunned, looking up at Tang Rao with a hint of surprise.

He had been here registering for several days, and no one had ever said thank you to him before.

"You're welcome. Mountain 2046 can be reached from there, use the transmission array and tell the personnel," the bald man's attitude noticeably improved, even offering a little guidance to Tang Rao.

"Alright," Tang Rao chuckled.

"Hey, Kao Shan Sect? Hahaha, Kao Shan Sect, really the Kao Shan Sect!" Just as Tang Rao was about to leave, someone suddenly shouted, with a mocking, disdainful tone.

The tone gave Tang Rao the same feeling as when someone on Blue Star sees a monkey and says, "Hey monkey, do a flip."

It was a voice filled with contempt and prejudice.

Quite unpleasant.

"Hahaha, is it that bottom-tier Kao Shan Sect? Wow, they came again?"

"Kao Shan Sect is amazing; coming last at the last sect exchange, yet still not giving up this time."

"They made a name by being at the bottom, a novel approach! Don't mock them! Hahaha!"

Tang Rao's eyes darkened.

"Mantis, calm down, these people aren't worth it," Shi Pang held onto Tang Rao. "If you act here, you'll be disqualified from the competition."
