Chapter 120 Start Of Star Master Youth Competition
[After leaving the Holy Maiden to her own accord and not even bothering with Hong De's demise, you already got what you wanted so you continued your tour around the Star City.]
[You already know that the Holy Maiden wasn't against waging war towards the Hong Clan so that alone was enough for you to proceed with the plan of eliminating the Hong Clan.]
[After all, the victim of this conflict was the Holy Maiden. Even if you wanted to wage war against the Hong Clan, you couldn't go on with it if the Holy Maiden didn't agree with it.]
[Well, you could still continue but you would be on your own at that time or you would have to give another reason for waging war against the Hong Clan. Fortunately, that didn't come to that since the Holy Maiden was also pissed off to the point she wanted to implicate the Hong Clan behind Hong De.]
[The Holy Maiden was well aware of the innocents in the Hong Clan but she was the Holy Maiden for a reason. She could care less about the others even if they were innocent. Otherwise, she would have already stopped those bishops who massacred the citizens of Xin City in the previous timeline if she was holier than the Virgin Mary.]
[After you finish your stroll in Star City, you return to your residence near the Pope Palace.]
[A few weeks have passed since that incident and the Star Master Youth Competition has officially started!]
[During those weeks, the Hong Clan patriarch had negotiated with the Star Hall to prevent the incoming war between the Hong Clan and the Star Hall. However, the Star Hall pope had already been told by her daughter to continue with the war, and with your persuasion as well, the Star Hall Pope declined the truce of the Hong Clan patriarch and proceeded with the plan of starting a war with the Hong Clan.]
[The war between the Star Hall and the Hong Clan would start after the Star Master Youth Competition. However, one of the main reasons why the Star Hall pope was persuaded by you to start the war against the Hong Clan was due to your volunteer in destroying the Hong Clan by yourself.]
[At first, the Star Hall Pope had declined that since he didn't want to risk your life in exchange for the Hong Clan. After all, you were his most talented and valuable disciple so he didn't want to risk your life just for a mere Hong Clan.]
[But since you were adamant about eliminating the Hong Clan and you had already proven to the Star Hall Pope that you were much stronger than him, the Star Hall Pope could only take the risk and agree to you.]
[The Star Hall Pope knew that he was stronger than the Hong Clan patriarch so if you were stronger than him, then you could also easily defeat the Hong Clan patriarch. And upon further persuasion, you managed to allow the Star Hall Pope to only send you alone in the war against the Hong Clan.]
[It might look like Star Hall took advantage of you by sending you to eliminate the strongest clan in this world, but it was all due to your arrangements. Only if you are alone in your massacre against the Hong Clan that you could freely use your Nine-Colored Cosmic Sword to plunder the star artifacts of those Hong Clan members.]
[Most of the members of the Hong Clan were sword star artifacts while a few were armor star artifacts due to a few members of the Hong Clan possessing stronger Lian Clan bloodline than Hong Clan bloodline. Nonetheless, most of them possessed at least a minimum of a star artifact grade of top grade aside from a few exceptions so their star artifacts were very useful to you.]
[Since you have already approved your plan of waging war against the Hong Clan and even every top force in the world knew about it, you now focused on participating in the Star Master Youth Competition.]
[Even with the threat of the Star Hall, the Hong Clan still attended the Star Master Youth Competition and you knew why. The Hong Clan patriarch must be at his wit's end so he would still attempt to contact the other top forces to assist the Hong Clan in dealing with the Star Hall.]
[Since the Hong Clan's demise was inevitable, the Hong Clan patriarch wouldn't sit still and do nothing to prevent it even if he knew that the chances of avoiding such calamity were close to zero.]
[You couldn't help but sigh at how things had turned out but you never planned to stop. Even if the Hong Clan patriarch was your father in the previous simulation, you had already decided to not invest too much emotions and attachments regarding the top forces that backed you.]
[After all, the Heir Of A Top Force (Gold) talent would grant you random top backgrounds so you know that it was irrational for you to grow attached to the top force that backed you. They were nothing but expendables that could allow you to reach a higher score and achievements in the simulation.]
[Even when the Star Hall Pope had treated you as if you were his son, you didn't let that get to you since it was in your best interest to maximize the benefits you could make when you have a top force backing you. And to maximize that benefit, you must also be decisive when it comes to sacrificing or abandoning them when they are no longer needed or when they become a hindrance to you.]
[Not to mention, your real parents were the ones in your past life and even your deceased parents in the Transcendent World weren't truly your parents. But considering how your parents in the Transcendent World had treated you well when you were at your weakest, you didn't treat any other parents of yours in other worlds seriously.]
[If you did, it would be quite troublesome considering that in most cases, your Heir Of A Top Force (Gold) talent will grant you a powerful family and you will inevitably have parents if that was the case.]
[After you planned to eliminate the Hong Clan and numbed your emotions towards the Hong Clan, you headed to the Star Arena which was the venue of the Star Master Youth Competition.]
