Chapter 613 United
The young man, dressed in a golden divine robe and sporting a rooster-comb hairstyle, vanished like ripples in a soft light, and a beautiful young woman slowly solidified into a tangible form.
If Qin You and Qin Youyou stood together, they would look like sisters who were seven parts alike.
At this moment, Qin You wore a bright smile, radiating a powerful and approachable aura that seemed to have returned to simplicity.
“You don’t need to know my name.” The girl’s voice, with a strange penetrating power, calmed the commotion. “You only need to know…”
Her gaze swept intently across the confused yet hopeful faces of the believers:
"There will never be another Vadashi!"
"There will be no more divine servants or messengers who manipulate people's hearts!"
Her expression hardened: "The Temple of Holy Light... is now just yesterday's dust!"
Each word was like a heavy hammer, shattering the shackles of the old world.
The voice suddenly rose in pitch, spreading like wildfire, igniting a new belief:
But the true holy light—
"It was never hidden beneath the false golden roof of the temple!"
"It is born in the heart! It grows in the soul! It shines in every moment when we raise our fists to protect, to fight for freedom, and to uphold our beliefs!"
"It is eternal!"
"And the faith and courage of all beings will, like this radiant sun, pierce through the eternal fog and remain forever!"
As soon as she finished speaking, she lightly touched the ground with her toes, and her figure rose like a swan, stepping onto the high platform and standing beside Qin You.
Qin You nodded slightly and stood beside her, like two sharp blades cutting through the night, or like two pillars supporting a new sky.
Qin You took a deep breath, her voice like a dragon's roar echoing across the land:
"So let's unite! All our friends—!"
She opened her arms as if to embrace the whole world.
"Not bound by race, not confined by the past!"
"Forget the hierarchy and barriers imposed by the temple, and remember the scars and camaraderie forged in battle!"
"I swear on this land that we shared through suffering and which has now been reborn—!"
"With our will, with the flesh and blood and souls of all living beings—!"
"Build an indestructible wall! Light an ever-burning lamp in your heart!"
"From this day forward—the Beast Lords will be a rock, a beacon, and the first cornerstone of the new world!"
Qin You glanced down, then went up, his voice resounding:
"Humans, beastmen, and hybrids!"
"Let us work together to protect and cultivate our future! Our future should be paved by ourselves! Our history should be discovered and revived by ourselves!"
"Unity! Rebirth! Freedom! Revival!"
The square was first utterly silent, then—
"Roar--!!!"
"Roar--!!!"
"I swear to follow you to the death!!"
"Unity! Rebirth! Freedom! Revival!!"
A thunderous roar of response suddenly erupted, soaring straight into the sky.
The roars of beasts and the howls of men mingled together, converging into a torrent powerful enough to shatter all the gloom of the old world.
That was the first cry of a new world, bearing the mark of blood and an indomitable will, resounding throughout the vast clear sky.
Qin You and Qin You stood on the high platform, the sunlight gilding their faces.
The surging faith of the people below is the most solid foundation, supporting the future.
Their gaze pierced through the bustling present, looking towards a deeper, more distant horizon.
A new chapter has begun.

Within the ruins, in the enchanted field.
The atmosphere suddenly shifted, and everyone was sighing and lamenting.
Someone noticed that the flow of time within this barrier seems to be incorrect!
In just three days, it felt like three years had passed. Time flowed slowly, almost wearing them down.
Inside the barrier of the Holy Knights' team next door, and inside the barrier of the Archaeology students' team, there is a "favorable weather" effect, so crops are harvested one after another, four times a day.
Within the barrier formed by Hua Xiange, the Lan brothers, and Xuanming Qinfu, the "Four Seasons" effect meant that every morning was spring, noon was summer, afternoon was autumn, and night was winter. With proper planting, one could have a harvest every day.
Most of the teams were "guaranteed to have a good harvest regardless of drought or flood." In three days, there were ten floods and eight severe droughts, and the harvest was far less than that of the teams that had the previous two benefits.
As for the teams in the "constant natural disasters" mode, the situation is even more horrific. Droughts and floods are relatively easy for them, but the overwhelming locust plagues are all of divine beast level, and they almost swallowed them whole.
Not to mention the hailstones, volcanic eruptions, earthquakes, and tsunamis, each one the size of a small mountain...
No one could understand how a tsunami could occur within this small, enclosed field.
The faces of everyone in those three teams were grim, as if they had died eight hundred times over, not to mention the harvest.
Two teams quickly gave up and raised their hands, shouting that they were quitting.
The entity behind the ruins didn't make things difficult for them and immediately kicked them out.
Only the Bagayal and StarClan forces are still struggling to hold on.
"Once you hand over 1,000 shi of grain, the barrier will open, and you may proceed to the next level."
How much?
The three star races were dumbfounded.
What the hell is going on?! Forget about a thousand shi (a unit of dry measure), they can't even pay a single grain of rice!
Are we just going to give up like this? But they've persevered for so long, how can they just give up!
Baga Yalu was tortured to the point of being unrecognizable.
In times of drought, he is the Star Clan's beverage; in times of flood, he is the Star Clan's kayak; when hail falls, he is the Star Clan's umbrella; when a volcano erupts, he is the Star Clan's shield; during a tsunami, he is the Star Clan's surfboard; when the earth cracks, he is the Star Clan's vaulting pole...
The Star Clan's purple bones are incredibly strong; mere natural disasters cannot harm them. They torture him only to protect his precious and fragile body.
He wanted to die, but the Star Clan used some unknown method to keep him alive, leaving him truly unable to live or die.
Upon hearing that he would have to hand over a thousand shi of grain in order to leave the barrier, his one eye widened in shock, and he opened his mouth as if to bite his tongue and commit suicide.
Suddenly, the Star Clan member patted him on the back, and his movements froze. He bared his teeth and stuck out his tongue, unable to close his mouth properly.
He shed a silent tear, his eyes pleading as he looked at the Star Clan, but the demons' faces were filled with warning and disgust.
At this moment, Baga Yalu finally understood how dangerous and ridiculous his idea of plotting against a tiger and using the Star Clan to harm Ying Linlin was.
He looked enviously at the group that Qin Youyou and Ying Linlin were in. The crops there were so lush that the people inside could not be seen. The climate inside was mild, and the wind blew the grass low, revealing swaying branches and ripples.
Their faces were so joyful, their complexions so rosy, even though they were only a few steps away, their own side of the barrier was suddenly hit by another terrifying hailstorm.
Baga Yalu felt like he was being lifted up and used as an umbrella again. He closed his eyes and resigned himself to his fate.
