Chapter 1826: Situation change
While the newcomers were fighting desperately on the battlefield, at that moment, on the periphery of this novice training planet, aboard many spacecraft, numerous races were paying attention to this largest-scale trial in recent years.
"Aike and the others are doing quite well, aren't they!"
A being with a triangular head, dark bluish skin, little hair, and a pair of huge eyes was holding an exquisite metal cup with its sharp seven-fingered hand, drinking while watching a huge light screen.
The screen was divided into two parts: one part was the rankings, including points ranking, kill ranking, efficiency ranking, same-species kill ranking, and real-time combat power ranking, among others—much richer in content than what the newcomers saw on their recorders.
The other half displayed numerous live broadcast feeds, although these couldn't be switched arbitrarily and focused solely on select key areas.
"The people chosen by our Huo’er Star are definitely good."
Another similar being stood nearby, wearing a strange, light silver robe dotted with black spots, looking very peculiar, though the material was unknown.
"Big brother, do you think Father can reach an agreement with those from Reina Star this time?" the standing being asked the drinking one, somewhat uncertainly.
"Don't worry, it should be fine," the one called big brother said, standing up and also positioning himself in front of the light screen, shoulder to shoulder with his brother.
Whether in attire or appearance, they were almost identical. "Whether it's our Huo’er Star camp or the Reina Star camp, we've all realized that things are getting worse and more serious. If we don't break through, all that awaits us is annihilation—it's just a matter of how long we can hold out, but the result is the same."
"Father says it's time to give up our previous stance. No matter what the wheel is like, we can't leave it for now. Our differences can be set aside for the time being. We'll get through this difficulty first."
The younger brother nodded, then suddenly extended a dark red tentacle from his collar, about the thickness of a human finger, which inserted into the cup in his brother's hand and began to suck.
The older brother gave his brother an annoyed look. "Can you stop messing around? Is your body tube meant for drinking alcohol?"
The younger brother chuckled and retracted the thing.
"Reina Star actually thinks the same as we do. Wanting to negotiate with Father is just for the sake of interest. From what I know, this novice battlefield is a bet between the two sides. Whoever wins gets the larger share of benefits; whoever loses gets the smaller share."
Hearing this, the younger brother was taken aback and asked doubtfully, "What is the larger share? And what is the smaller share?"
"The larger share is the Su Race faction plus seven hundred small races."
"And the smaller share is the Taros Red Dwarves and three hundred small races!"

On the Star-Eye Clan's spacecraft, Aslan and the others were also staring at the light screen.
A few hours ago, they had been very excited.
Because at that time, the points of their favored Ye Zhongming and Jie Kui had a rapid, brief increase, and their rankings jumped from the bottom to around two thousand. Among the over thirty thousand participants in the novice battlefield, this ranking was very good—it could even be said to basically equal the Star-Eye Clan's best results in previous years.
Of course, that referred to after the novice battlefield ended.
With this momentum, the trial's direction was promising.
Although the Star-Eye Clan was small and their spacecraft's light screen wasn't as grand or luxurious as others', it still had the necessary information, such as the efficiency ranking and combat power ranking.
Since every newcomer had a recorder, their data was accurately collected and analyzed, resulting in efficiency and combat power rankings.
Of course, these changed at any time and weren't the main reference, but they provided some basis for analyzing the situation for various seeds being watched.
Ye Zhongming was ranked in the top two hundred on the efficiency ranking, which was significantly higher than his actual points ranking.
