If it were anyone else standing in front of Xu Yuan and claiming that power and strength were the most important things, Xu Yuan would definitely refute it without hesitation and explain his own viewpoint.
However, the people standing before Xu Yuan at this moment were Tyrant HIM and Annoying Village HIM, two immensely powerful beings.
Facing them, Xu Yuan knew there was no need to argue any further.
There was no other reason, Xu Yuan understood Tyrant HIM and Annoying Village HIM very well. He knew clearly that everything they had done in their respective worlds was driven by a single shared goal, leading the world toward peace.
There was no denying that their original intentions were undoubtedly good; they had simply chosen the wrong methods.
Xu Yuan firmly believed that as long as they found the right approach, they would surely be able to perfectly resolve those seemingly difficult problems and ultimately achieve the goals in their hearts.
After all, given their abilities, once they were on the right path, no one would be able to stop them.
Since both Tyrant HIM and Annoying Village HIM had already acknowledged Xu Yuan's way of thinking and stated that they had gained inspiration from it, it was foreseeable that they would try to use this new mindset to handle problems in the future.
Since that was the case, Xu Yuan's objective had already been achieved. There was absolutely no need for him to continue debating with them over whether power and strength were the primary factors or not.
That was why he asked, "If you obtain the power you desire, can you guarantee that you will do what I just said?"
If Tyrant HIM and Annoying Village HIM could guarantee that, after obtaining power, they would use the way of thinking Xu Yuan had just described to analyze and resolve problems, then Xu Yuan would be more than willing to hand over this power that came from the true HIM to them.
After all, to Xu Yuan, who won this battle and who obtained this power was fundamentally unimportant.
What Xu Yuan wanted was simply to resolve the problems of this world. Who solved them, and the process by which they were solved, none of that mattered. What mattered was the result.
As long as Tyrant HIM and Annoying Village HIM could still uphold Xu Yuan's ideals after obtaining power, they would likewise be able to resolve the many issues facing both the current world and their own worlds.
Upon hearing Xu Yuan's words, Tyrant HIM nodded without the slightest hesitation and said in a deep voice, "Why wouldn't we be able to guarantee that?"
"Do you think we truly enjoy using war to solve everything?"
"Anyone who has truly experienced war does not like war, because war has never had any winners. Every war brings countless sacrifices."
"I agree with your ideas and ideals, and I am willing to avoid war to resolve problems."
"So, if I had sufficiently powerful strength and the right to speak, I think I would resolve issues in the way you described."
Tyrant HIM looked at Xu Yuan seriously, a firm light flickering in his eyes.
At this point, Tyrant HIM shrugged, the corners of his mouth lifting slightly into a confident smile, "At most, it just means using my brain a bit more. That may not be my strong suit, but compared to endless war, I'd rather challenge the weak points."
From Tyrant HIM's resolute gaze, it was clear that these words came straight from his heart. He deeply understood the cruelty and ruthlessness of war and also understood that only by avoiding war could true long-term peace be achieved.
This longing for peace made him show rare sincerity when facing Xu Yuan.
As soon as Tyrant HIM finished speaking, Annoying Village HIM nodded as well. He let out a deep sigh and fell into memories of the past. Slowly, he began to speak.
"At the beginning, I didn't want to use war to solve all problems, but I gradually realized that not everyone was willing to listen to my voice."
"The world I was in was far too complex. Every faction, even every individual, had their own thoughts and desires."
"I once believed that if I could unify everyone's thoughts, I could achieve true peace."
"After all, when everyone shares a single mind, there will be no more disagreements, and naturally, no more wars."
At this point in his recollection, Annoying Village HIM shook his head, seemingly dissatisfied with his previous actions. He sighed and then began to reflect on himself.
"Now that I think about it, the way I handled things was far too extreme."
"By stripping them of their thoughts, they were no longer who they originally were. Their bodies would only become walking corpses."
"If I succeeded, then that world would be left with only me alone. If that were the case, what meaning would it have?"
"I know very clearly that this is not the outcome I want."
As he said this, Annoying Village HIM looked at Xu Yuan and continued, "If I possessed power that no one could possibly match, I think I would no longer continue with my plan."
"The world I'm in is very similar to this one. Since you can avoid war and resolve the conflicts among the native beings, that proves this isn't an unsolvable problem."
"I think I can do it as well."
"As for the issues among the creator gods… I think I can also find a way to deal with them."
In truth, as long as Annoying Village HIM could calm down and think things through carefully, there would have been no need for Xu Yuan to remind him, he would have realized on his own that his previous actions were meaningless.
It was just that Annoying Village HIM had been trapped within the situation before, with no time at all to think about such things.
This was what people meant by "being lost in the moment."
Now that he was in another world, he had been given time to breathe, allowing him to step back and look at the problem from the outside.
Moreover, the situation in his world was very similar to the situation in the current world.
Since Xu Yuan could easily resolve the dilemma facing this world, Annoying Village HIM believed that he could do the same.
And he could also guarantee that after obtaining sufficiently powerful strength, he would no longer resolve problems through war as he had in the past.
He would try to use Xu Yuan's way of thinking to overcome difficulties and bring true peace to that world.
Naturally, everything he had just said also came straight from his heart.
There was no problem with the overall perspective of either Tyrant HIM or Annoying Village HIM. Sometimes, they just needed a slight reminder to find the correct path.
Therefore, they would certainly honor their promises.
Hearing the words of Tyrant HIM and Annoying Village HIM, Xu Yuan looked deeply gratified. He looked at them, nodded, and smiled as he spoke, "Mm, I believe you can do it."
"Since you both think that what you lack right now is power, then I'm willing to help fulfill that wish and give up this spot."
"I voluntarily withdraw from this trial."
