Dragon Transformation in the Apocalypse

Chapter 428 Interstellar Martial Arts Tournament

After the two X2 passenger ships landed slowly, Li Chenglong and the others disembarked. Surprisingly, the people responsible for receiving them were not from the alien alliance, but "humans" they had never seen before.

The crowd saw that these "humans" were all women, almost all around 170 cm tall, with appearances somewhat resembling those of Europeans and Americans on Earth; they were all very beautiful. Moreover, aside from their height, their features, weight, and physique were remarkably similar. The only difference was their hair color; some had green, some blue, and others purple or white.

Cecily introduced them to the group, saying, "This is the Elf race, who hold a very high status in the Interstellar Alliance. They are all women and live on the planet Roland, which has a very pleasant environment. I didn't expect them all to come this time. It seems that the Interstellar Alliance attaches great importance to this Interstellar Martial Arts Tournament."

Cecily then stepped forward and spoke in interstellar language to the more ornately dressed woman standing in the middle. After a while, Cecily came over to Li Chenglong and said, "That woman over there is the captain of the personal guard of the second princess of Roland Star. She said that her personal guard is responsible for security during the Interstellar Martial Arts Tournament. Now she requires all of us to undergo security checks, and all the contestants will go to a mothership for a meeting."

Li Chenglong naturally had no objection to this. He explained the situation to the humans in both English and Chinese. Afterward, the group underwent security checks by the Roland aliens and followed them to the building where they were to stay. After settling their accommodations, Li Chenglong, Cecily, Zhao Wuji, and the other six, led by two Roland aliens, headed to a massive warship.

After passing through two more security checks, the seven finally arrived at a very large conference room. To the left of the conference table sat a row of aliens—the seven warriors from the alien alliance who had fought in the battle. To the north of the table were three seats occupied by three people, presumably representatives of the Interstellar Alliance.

Because Li Chenglong possessed a psionic space, his security check took much longer than the other six people, making him the last to enter. As soon as he entered, he saw three familiar faces in the north-facing seats. However, given the situation, he couldn't be foolish enough to greet them directly. Instead, he found a seat on the east side of the conference table, just like the others.

After everyone was seated, the same captain of the personal guard came in and handed each of the seven people on the human side an earpiece. Cecily explained, "These are miniature language translators. You can understand interstellar language by putting them in your ears." Although Li Chenglong was already very proficient in interstellar language, he still put the earpiece in his ear.

The captain of the guards began, "Let me first introduce the three representatives who are in charge of supervising this interstellar martial arts tournament. The one on the left is Mr. Roddick, the second elder of the General Affairs Council of Melan Star; the one in the middle is Miss Sera, the second princess of the Kingdom of Roland Star; and the one on the right is Ms. Lena, the first elder of Hailan Star."

The three people did not stand up, but simply nodded slightly. Then the captain of the guard continued, "I am Cynthia, in charge of security during this Interstellar Martial Arts Tournament. During this Interstellar Martial Arts Tournament and the subsequent negotiations, my subordinates and I will be responsible for security in this area. Please abide by the notices we have posted outside the residential areas of both sides and do not do anything to make things difficult for us."

After Cynthia finished speaking, Miss Sera, who was sitting in the middle, smiled and said, "First of all, I am very happy to come to this beautiful planet with Mr. Roddick and Ms. Lena and to serve as the supervisor of this interstellar martial arts tournament. Moreover, we will also mediate between the Allied Forces and humanity after the tournament."

She paused for a moment, then continued, "First of all, these are the rules for this Interstellar Martial Arts Tournament. If you have no objections, please sign your names. If you have any objections, please let us know immediately so we can make adjustments." As she spoke, the table suddenly transformed into a display screen, and an electronic document appeared in front of each person, containing the rules of this Interstellar Martial Arts Tournament.

Li Chenglong looked at the electronic document that had appeared on the table in front of him and began to read it carefully. The rules of this interstellar martial arts tournament were very simple: there was no time limit for the battle, no restrictions on the fighting style, and no prohibited attacks. However, it was forbidden to use potions or other external means to heal oneself during the battle, and it was also forbidden to kill one's opponent. There were three conditions for winning: first, knocking down the opponent so that they could not get up for 20 seconds; second, knocking the opponent out of the arena; and third, making the opponent voluntarily admit defeat.

After both parties had finished reading, Cynthia said, "If you agree to these rules, place your thumb on the box at the bottom of the document to indicate that you have signed it." Li Chenglong felt this rule was fair to both parties, so he placed his right thumb on the box. A slight flash appeared on the box, and his fingerprint was transferred to the electronic document. Then the document slowly disappeared, and the table returned to its original state.

With him taking the lead, everyone else followed suit, signing their names to indicate their agreement to the rules of the interstellar martial arts tournament. However, some aliens signed differently. For example, mechanical lifeforms like Marina, Keltilan, and Sitros didn't have fingerprints, so they signed their names and unique markings.

After everything was over, Roddick slowly said, "That's all for today. As for the start time of the Interstellar Martial Arts Tournament, it will be set for 8:00 AM tomorrow. Note that this time is 8:00 AM in our current time zone, not 8:00 AM in your arrival time zone. Alright, you can leave now."

The seven members of the alien alliance didn't say anything and quickly walked out. Just as the humans were about to leave, Lena suddenly said, "Lord Li Chenglong, please wait a moment. I have some things I'd like to ask you. The rest of you can leave now." Zhao Wuji and Cecily looked at Li Chenglong, and seeing him nod slightly, they left under the guidance of the Roland Star female warrior.

Lena smiled and said to Roddick and Sera, "I know this Earth human. I have some questions to ask him, so I'll take my leave first. Sorry." Sera quickly replied, "Elder Lena, you're the oldest of the three of us in terms of age, and in terms of seniority and contributions to the Interstellar Alliance, we're far inferior to you. Please don't be so polite in the future." Roddick nodded in agreement, "Yes, I also hope we can just act like friends."

Lena didn't reply, she just smiled, and then walked out with Li Chenglong.

Following Teacher Lena through a maze of turns, they finally arrived at a very luxurious room, which, judging by its decor, must be Teacher Lena's bedroom. As soon as they entered, Teacher Lena locked the door and used her superpowers to create a soundproof barrier. Her smile vanished, and she said seriously to Li Chenglong, "You really shouldn't have agreed to their proposal. That Marina is definitely not a simple person. Let me tell you, even I am no match for her."

Li Chenglong had secretly used his True Dragon Eye to assess the strength of the three representatives sent by the Interstellar Alliance. Roddick, Sera, and Lena were all level 13 superhumans, and their four attributes were all lower than Marina's. Roddick, in particular, was probably only on par with Sitroros.

Lena was still grumbling as she packed her things when she suddenly felt a terrifying energy surge behind her. The energy vanished in an instant, leaving her with a surreal feeling. She turned around with some difficulty, looking at Li Chenglong in surprise.

Lena gripped Li Chenglong's wrist tightly, carefully sensing it for a few minutes. Surprised and delighted, she said, "Good, good, very good. Now that you have such strength, I can rest assured." Li Chenglong quickly replied, "This is all thanks to you, teacher. If it weren't for your repeated help and the G-crystal that your son researched his whole life, I, Li Chenglong, would probably be dead long ago, let alone have reached my current strength. If you have any requests in the future, teacher, I will definitely not refuse."

Lena smiled and said, "You said it yourself, so don't refuse later." Her smile was so charming that Li Chenglong was momentarily stunned. Li Chenglong was about to say something when the teacher interrupted him.

Lena's smile faded, and she said seriously, "I do have something to ask of you, no, it shouldn't be me, it should be our entire interstellar alliance, we all have something to ask of you. But you don't need to know it now, go back and have a good meal and rest, and prepare for tomorrow morning's battle. Take these things, consider them a token of my appreciation."

As she spoke, Lena waved her right hand lightly, and Li Chenglong felt a large number of various supplies appear in the storage area of ​​the psionic space, all neatly arranged and categorized. Before Li Chenglong could speak, Lena waved her hand: "Go ahead, I'm sleepy and want to rest for a while."

Seeing that Teacher Lena was already walking towards the bedside, Li Chenglong said a few words and then immediately withdrew. However, upon reappearing, he realized that he was somewhat lost, and there were no female elves from Roland Star nearby. Left with no other choice, he used spatial teleportation to leave the massive spaceship.
