After all, he was already a True God, and this kind of spiritual array in the room was only prepared for Variants in the Mortal Realm.

Once seated, Xiao Mu began to plan for his action this time.

The first issue was identity.

Heavenly Court's strong ones had already infiltrated, especially Meng Xuantong and Lin Guyi, enough to make Xiao Mu wary.

For his own safety, he had to conceal his identity.

Therefore, Xiao Mu disguised himself as a middle-aged man and entered the ruins of Great Tang as an ordinary Variant.

To avoid attracting attention, the middle-aged man he transformed into lived in a house specially rented to Variants in the Great Tang ruins, just like an ordinary Variant in the Mortal Realm.

After hiding his identity, the next step was the investigation.

What Xiao Mu wanted to investigate was quite simple. The primary objective was the Heavenly Court Variants appearing in the Great Tang ruins, and secondly, the reason Heavenly Court took the corpse of True God Zhu Qianhao, with an opportunity to reclaim it.

A Variant had already been killed by the Heavenly Court in the Great Tang ruins. These Variants were related to another Ancient True God, Kuang Shenfeng, all descendants of this Ancient Divine Being.

Like Zhu Qianhao, Kuang Shenfeng was a True God under the Lord of Bai's Mansion and was one of the three war gods.

Kuang Shenfeng is dead, and his remains are likely buried in the Great Tang ruins, but the exact details are currently unknown.

Xiao Mu suspected that the Heavenly Court's goal of dealing with Kuang Clan descendants was the same as when they dealt with the descendants of Zhu Qianhao, which was for Kuang Shenfeng's corpse.

This needs confirmation.

Xiao Mu planned to investigate the old Kuang residence first.

The distance between the old Kuang residence and the place Xiao Mu rented was close, just two or three miles.

Moreover, as all the known Kuang Clan descendants had been killed by the Heavenly Court, Xiao Mu also needed to look for Kuang Clan branches or friends to understand Kuang Clan's situation through them.

Xiao Mu planned to secretly visit the old Kuang residence first.

Click! Click!

The sound of the lock turning caught Xiao Mu's attention as someone used a key to open the door.

Upon hearing the door open, a cold and aloof young woman immediately turned off the TV and came out of the room.

Her footsteps were anxious, appearing exceptionally urgent.

The door was opened, making a creaking sound.

Xiao Mu looked towards the door, and a petite, delicate, spiritually appealing young girl walked in backwards, closing the door behind her.

"Xiao Ling, you're back? How did it go? Do I have a chance?"

The aloof young woman's voice came from behind Xiao Mu, sounding urgent and full of deep expectations.

"Sister Qi."

The petite girl turned her head, calling out to the aloof young woman, intending to speak when she saw Xiao Mu. Her gaze fell first on Xiao Mu, and she exclaimed in surprise, "You... who are you?"

Her voice was clear, her tone gentle, easily creating a good impression.

"A tenant, I asked him to wait at home for you. Xiao Ling, how did the inquiry go for me? Do I have a chance?"

The aloof young woman hurriedly answered for Xiao Mu, urgently inquiring of the petite girl Xiao Ling again.

"Hello! Sorry to keep you waiting, excuse me, I'll talk to Sister Qi first."

The petite girl Xiao Ling smiled apologetically at Xiao Mu, her smile sweet.

"It's alright, go ahead, after all, I've been waiting for a long time, a moment won't matter." Xiao Mu smiled at her.

The petite girl felt a tinge of embarrassment and apologized to Xiao Mu again before answering the aloof woman Sister Qi's question, "Sister Qi, I found out, you're ranked 279th."

"279th?"

The aloof young woman was stunned, her face showing unease, then urgently asked, "How many people are admitted?"

"Admitted… About…"

The petite girl seemed worried about disheartening Sister Qi, hesitated for a moment, then hesitantly answered, "It seems… About one hundred. Sister Qi, don't get discouraged, there's still an interview."

Just as she answered, she realized it surely still disappointed the other person, and immediately spoke to comfort.

Xiao Mu listened, completely puzzled, unable to understand what these two were discussing, but could only stand by and listen helplessly.

"One hundred… One hundred people?"

The aloof young woman's face immediately became extremely crestfallen, her demeanor filled with dejection, "Interview? Interviews are pointless; they are just formalities. With only one hundred accepted, what chance do I have with the 279th rank?"

"Not necessarily, really, Sister Qi, not necessarily."

The petite girl began to regret telling Sister Qi everything she learned and hurriedly advised, "Interviews are actually quite important, haven't there been similar cases before where someone with a far lower comprehensive ranking in strength and talent got a chance because they did well in the interview?"

Sister Qi smiled bitterly, "Xiao Ling, you're too young to understand worldly affairs. There's no such thing as doing well in interviews, let me tell you, those people got their opportunities through connections and under-the-table dealings."

Xiao Ling was startled, finding it hard to believe, "Really?"

"I specifically looked into it, that's how it really is."

Sister Qi's face filled with dejection before a thought crossed her mind. Her tone suddenly became particularly firm, saying firmly, "I have to find another way, no matter what, no matter the cost, I have to get the True Realm qualification."

"Sister Qi, what resolve! How are you going to do it?" Xiao Ling was intrigued.

A smile appeared on Sister Qi's face, "There's always a way, definitely a way."

True Realm? Qualification to enter the True Realm?

Does it also require qualifications to enter the True Realm? How is it connected to interview assessments?

Xiao Mu finally understood what the two women were discussing, but became even more confused.

Has the regulation at the Great Tang ruins changed?

Xiao Mu still clearly remembered that when he entered the True Realm, it was by participating in the True Strength Seed mission that he got the opportunity.

And from Sister Qi and Xiao Ling's conversation, entering the True Realm today seems to have a few more paths? No longer just the True Strength Seed mission path?

"Xiao Ling, do you know anyone in the True Realm Affairs Office?"

Afterward, Sister Qi suddenly looked at Xiao Ling expectantly.

True Realm Affairs Office?

Xiao Mu found it strange upon hearing that a new department like this had appeared at the Great Tang ruins.

What is called the True Realm Affairs Office should be related to entering the True Realm, right?

It seems, with the deep mutation of the world, this world has undergone tremendous changes again.

At least, the difficulty for Variants entering the True Realm seems to have decreased now.

Xiao Ling was not very confident, "I do know someone, a friend of a friend works in the True Realm Affairs Office. But Sister Qi, his position is very low, I'm afraid he can't help much."

"No, you don't understand, even if the position is low, they can still help."

Sister Qi's thoughts were apparently different from Xiao Ling, as she smiled comfortingly, "Xiao Ling, help me contact that friend of a friend, asking him to help me connect with the officers, tell that friend as long as he can help me reach the officers, I'm willing to pay any price."

"Sister, you are really determined!"

Xiao Ling was shocked by Sister Qi's actions, full of admiration, "Sister, relax, I will definitely help you contact that friend of a friend."

Sister Qi impatiently urged Xiao Ling to contact the friend of a friend immediately.

Xiao Ling sent out a few messages on her cellphone and, while waiting, smiled sweetly at Xiao Mu, "Sorry to keep you waiting, did Sister Qi tell you the rental price? One Energy Fruit per day."

Sister Qi hurriedly answered, "I told him."

"What do you think? Is the rent reasonable?" Xiao Ling sweetly smiled at Sister Qi, then looked towards Xiao Mu.

Xiao Mu smiled, "If I said the rent was unreasonable, what would you do? Lower the rent for me?"

Xiao Ling was startled, then blushed and softly said with a lack of confidence, "One… One Energy Fruit per day, it's not much."

Xiao Mu smiled again, "Nobody would complain if their rent was too low, how much could you reduce it for me?"

"This… This…" Xiao Ling hesitated, actually beginning to think.

"Hey! Don't you have any shame? Complaining about one Energy Fruit per day being too much? Do you know how much it costs in other places for similar rooms per day?" Sister Qi suddenly asked Xiao Mu coldly.

Seeing Xiao Ling being bullied by Xiao Mu, she couldn't stand it anymore.
