Chapter 1926: Riding a Tiger Is Difficult to Get Off
However, this problem cannot be solved by just a few of them. After all, the final decision of this martial arts competition is made by fists.
However, it is precisely because it needs to be solved by force that this is the most difficult thing for the five of them.
Because when they first took over the World Government, most of the people on the entire Sky Island were just ordinary people, such as workers, technicians, etc.
There are actually not many people who can really show off and fight on the battlefield.
At least in the eyes of the five of them, if such people are sent out to participate in the martial arts competition, they will be beaten to death in a minute.
At that time, let alone the top forces, they may not even be able to keep their current position as a large force.
So they were really in a dilemma at that time. After all, the World Government was already a well-known force on the entire Sky Island at that time after it was founded by that adult.
In the eyes of many people, they can develop Sky Island to such a large scale in such a short time, and their combat effectiveness must be unquestionable.
At least in the eyes of those people, although there are ten candidates, many of them only regard it as nine.
And when registering for the region, many people deliberately avoided the World Government.
Because they know that their strength is absolutely different from that of the World Government.
Even if they were confident in themselves and thought that it was no problem to seize the quota for promotion to the top power, they directly chose other regions when they thought of the foundation of the World Government.
Because they know that when two tigers fight, one will be injured. Before they are 100% sure, no one will take the initiative to provoke another strong enemy.
Unless it is absolutely necessary, they will never choose the same region as those people.
However, they also know that there are definitely more than ten strong forces, and a few have nearly 20.
Even if everyone tries to avoid being in different regions, there are only ten places, which means that almost half of these strong people will be eliminated in the end.
But even if they are going to be eliminated, they will try their best to reduce this probability.
Try to avoid the strongest forces and choose a few with the same strength as themselves as the competition objects.
In this way, everyone has a 50-50 chance. Even if they fail in the end, they have nothing to say and can only blame themselves for not being as skilled as others.
At least they will not be like those who choose the area where the strongest forces are located and become their stepping stones, which have no chance of winning at all.
However, these forces would never have thought that the World Government, which they thought was a sure thing to get the quota for the top forces, was actually strong on the outside but weak on the inside.
If they only rely on resources and compete on the speed of development, then the Five Elders can naturally say proudly that no matter who comes, they are not afraid.
Because of their development speed, if they don’t say that they are the first in Sky Island, they can at least rank in the top five.
So if there are ten quotas, it is absolutely certain that their World Government will get one of them.
But now they have to rely on force to solve it. If they want to compete in this martial arts competition, this is what they are most worried about.
For them, even if they don’t get the quota for the top forces in the end, they will not feel any loss.
Anyway, whether it is a large force or a top force, it doesn’t make much difference to the current development of the World Government.
It is nothing more than an excuse to collect iron ore from other forces in the region as a benefit of asylum.
But for the World Government, their resources are already ten times or a hundred times more than other forces.
The iron ore and other resources handed over by these forces are probably just a drop in the bucket compared to the current resources of the World Government.
So this can almost be said to be dispensable.
Although a mosquito is still meat no matter how small it is, for a force with extremely rich resources like them, they really don't care about this mosquito meat.
What they really care about is their own face. They are a force that was originally ranked in the top five in the Sky Island world, but after a martial arts competition, they directly fell out of the top ten.
If this force was founded by the five of them, they might be able to bear it.
Although they didn't get a quota this time, it is understandable.
After all, they were only focused on development before, and the Sky Pirates organization had not yet appeared on Sky Island, so everyone got along in a peaceful way.
At this time, everyone would not consider developing some generals to improve the combat effectiveness of the force.
Since no one is going to fight, why waste resources to train those generals?
With this money, it is better to decorate the sky island more and turn it into a landmark building.
This is also thanks to the pigmen, goblins, and spider monsters that refresh every day.
If there were no harassment from these monsters, many sky islands might not even have combatants.
This is not only the current situation of other forces, but also for the world government, they have such disadvantages.
So even if it is a bit embarrassing to not get the promotion this time, the Five Elders are fully confident that they can improve the strength of the entire world government before the next martial arts competition.
Because this time is a completely unprepared battle, it is normal even if they lose.
However, next time, they will have the confidence to win a promotion quota by relying on their extremely rich resource reserves, whether recruiting troops or cultivating internally.
However, although this idea is good, the reality is so cruel.
After all, the World Government was not founded by the five of them, but by the mysterious adult behind them.
So if the World Government is humiliated under their management, then they will not be able to escape the blame.
So this is also the most depressing part for them, as they have obviously worked hard to develop.
Even after taking over, the development speed of the World Government is not worse than before.
But now the sudden change of the Sky Island World caught them off guard.
This makes them feel that it is not right to participate in the competition, nor is it right not to participate.
Because participating in the competition means that they must get a quota, otherwise such participation will only result in being slapped in the face by other forces.
According to their current combat effectiveness, they may be similar to ordinary small and medium-sized forces.
If they lose to the top large forces at that time, they can still find an excuse, saying that they made a mistake and underestimated the enemy, which led to their defeat.
