"Everyone, you might as well surrender and withdraw from this elimination round."
"Otherwise, if it cos to a fight, I don't know if I can hold back. If you get injured, it won't be good for anyone."
Facing more than a dozen cultivators of the sa level, Xiao Yan said calmly without changing his expression. He even took a mont to glance at Grandpa Yu, who was standing beside him, resting with his eyes closed while holding a hoe.
With such a powerful being on their side, Xiao Yan's words were certainly not empty.
"Too arrogant!"
"We'll fight you two to the end!"
It seed that the words of Xiao Yan, or perhaps other reasons, had spurred the disciples of that faction into battle. The outco was inevitably a resounding victory for Lanyan Royal School.
Xiao Yan's team earned another point. To gain points, one must eliminate other teams. The elimination rounds within the Trial Tower were as rciless as raising a venomous insect; only the strongest teams could achieve ultimate victory.
In the Tower of Fire, countless teams faced situations similar to Lanyan Royal School's. However, unlike Xiao Yan and Lin Ye, who turned dire situations to their advantage through formidable strength, many other teams were either eliminated or annihilated, losing even their lives.
The Trial Tower's space was vast, much larger than many of the smaller realms within major sects.
In a lava-filled area within the Tower of Fire, the team from the Fire Clan, one of the Seven Great Houses of the Divine Realm, stood before a roaring inferno. Nearby, the bodies of more than ten fallen cultivators had already turned to ashes.
At the forefront of the team, a young man in a red and white robe stood on a slab of blue stone, his gaze indifferent as he watched the cultivators struggling in the flas. His body flickered with fiery light, and his long, red hair danced wildly in the waves of fire.
"Do you all dare to co to the Tower of Fire? Do you think our Fire Clan is weaker than the other four clans, or do you think that I, Lu Bei, am a kind-hearted person?"
"Kind-hearted, huh!"
"In the Immortal Realm, the most unnecessary thing for those who seek to cultivate is kindness!"
"Other nearby factions, listen well! In any place our Fire Clan reaches, you have ten breaths to surrender. After that, you'll face the consequences on your own!"
Lu Bei's voice echoed through the mountains, amplified by his powerful True Qi, reaching far and wide.
Hearing such a domineering threat, the cultivators from various factions turned pale. At this mont, no one dared to provoke the Fire Clan or challenge Lu Bei's authority.
Lu Bei, the foremost among the younger generation of the Fire Clan, had reached the peak of the Saint Stage and was a strong contender for the championship in this Great Competition of All Clans. His arrogance was indeed backed by substantial strength.
Currently, the Fire Clan ranked lowest among the seven great Houses in terms of overall strength. This Great Competition of All Clans was their chance for a coback, and they had invested resources in Lu Bei beyond what many cultivators could imagine.
Thus, the Tower of Fire, which seed the most likely to secure elimination round advancent, was actually the most dangerous.
Similar situations were unfolding in other Trial Towers.
Like the Fire Clan, the Beast Clan, Thunder Clan, Cloud Clan, and Ghost Clan were all rampaging within their respective Trial Towers. The cultivators from other factions generally had no strength to fight back.
In the Tower of Beast, even the Demon Clan, which was highly compatible, was no match for the Beast Clan.
The elimination round had only just begun, yet the Beast Clan team had already earned over a dozen points. This ant they had eliminated more than a dozen teams.
Such speed was not any less impressive than the ruthless Lava Clan.
This remarkable achievent was largely due to a young powerhouse in the Beast Clan nad Balu, whose cultivation was at the peak of the Saint Stage, comparable to Lu Bei.
Beast Clan's strong mbers often possessed powerful bloodlines, either from Mythical Creatures or Fierce Beasts. Balu possessed the bloodline of the Ancient Dragon. When fully activated, it granted him the power of the Ancient Dragon, transforming him into a Half-Dragonman and greatly increasing his overall strength.
In the Tower of Beast, no team had yet been able to directly resist the Half-Dragonman Balu. Even the Bull Demon Clan, known for its bravery, was recently defeated by Balu with ease.
"The demon clan enjoys a long lifespan. For the Bull Demon Clan to rise, they need ti to grow. To achieve such prowess within a century, they truly deserve the title of the greatest warrior of the demon clan of old."
After winning the battle, Balu did not take the lives of the Bull Demon Clan, not out of rcy, but because he sought worthy opponents, truly formidable challengers. He yearned to face a Bull Demon opponent again after a thousand years.
After sending off the Bull Demon Clan, Balu resud his purge of the factions within the Tower of Beasts, moving with even greater speed than before.
Competition existed even among the Seven Great Houses. Although they had tacitly avoided conflict in their respective trial towers during this elimination phase, everyone knew that battles among the Seven Great Houses were inevitable in the finals.
Balu's relentless pursuit of points was also to advance the interests of the Beast Clan. Currently, among the Seven Great Houses, apart from the Light and Wind Clans, all others, including the Beast Clan, were in decline.
The investnt in Balu by the Beast Clan was ant to ensure that he could carve out a future for them in this grand tournant. If Balu could secure a top-three finish for the Beast Clan in the finals, it would all be worthwhile.
Transford into a half-dragon, Balu swept through the entire Tower of Beasts like a descending demon god.
"Balu is terrifying!"
"The Beast Clan's inheritance is so strong. Even the hidden True Dragon Clan in the Demon Realm, where even an adult True Dragon might not match his bravery."
"It seems that in this Great Competition of All Clans, the seven great Houses don't intend to leave any chances for ordinary factions like us. With the elimination round held in their ho turf, is there even a chance to compete? It's impossible!"
For a ti, all factions were on edge, avoiding the Beast Clan team at all costs.
To advance in the elimination round, a team must gather three points, aning each team must eliminate three other teams to qualify.
Defeating equally well-prepared teams was not an easy task. Not every team had the crushing power of the seven great Houses or young prodigies like Lu Bei and Balu.
While many factions were desperately trying to secure their advancent, the Beast Clan team finally encountered an unexpected situation and had to stop.
"To dare to block the Beast Clan alone, you have so guts."
"I originally thought the Bull Demon Clan was the bravest in this Great Competition of All Clans, but I didn't expect to et soone braver today."
"Who are you?"
Like the others in the Beast Clan, Balu looked at the young man from the Human Clan before him with a cold gaze.
"Ye Fan."
The young man responded indifferently.
