Everyone looked at Lu Ming and the others, and different thoughts flashed through their minds.
"There are a lot fewer people. Many of them have disappeared!"
"Indeed, Lin Que has also disappeared. It seems that he has died inside. Most likely, he was killed by the Tianyi Sacred Dynasty!"
"It must be. What a pity that a genius of a generation has fallen!"
Many people sighed. As for Lin Que's family, their faces were pale. It was simply unacceptable.
The Crown Prince's face was also extremely ugly.
Lin Que had pledged allegiance to the Crown Prince. With such talent, he would definitely be a great general under the Crown Prince in the future. Unfortunately, he had died. For the Crown Prince, it was also a huge loss.
"Who among you has obtained an advancement token? Step forward. All of you, land on the fighting ring below!"
The Taixu Saint Emperor's voice rang out.
Then, one by one, figures stepped forward and landed below.
In the middle of the square below, there was a huge fighting ring.
One by one, figures landed on the fighting ring.
Lu Ming also moved and landed on the fighting ring.
The people of the Taixu Dynasty were fighting together, and the people of the Tianyi Sacred Dynasty were standing together.
There were exactly 16 people from the two sides combined.
Everyone's eyes fell on the sixteen of them.
The Taixu Dynasty had seven people, and the Tianyi Sacred Dynasty had nine people!
Many people's hearts trembled.
There were a total of 16 people. The Taixu Dynasty had seven people, and the Tianyi Sacred Dynasty had nine people.
The people of the Taixu Dynasty had ugly expressions, but the people of the Tianyi Sacred Dynasty were overjoyed.
"Impossible!"
The one who was the most shocked was the Taixu Saint Emperor. He suddenly stood up and stared at a young man in the air. He roared, "Haotian Chen, how could you not have obtained an advancement token?"
The Taixu Saint Emperor stared at a young man in a purple robe.
This young man in a purple robe was called Haotian Chen. Almost everyone in the Taixu Dynasty knew him because he was the leader of the Nine Great Generals and was known as the top genius of the Taixu Dynasty.
It was said that his cultivation had reached the Divine Lord Realm long ago, and his strength was unfathomable. With his strength, it was very easy for him to obtain an advancement token. Now, why was he eliminated?
Not only the Taixu Saint Emperor, but the people of the Taixu Dynasty and the Tianyi Sacred Dynasty also looked at Haotian Chen curiously.
Haotian Chen's face was a little pale, and his aura was a little weak. Clearly, he was injured.
Could it be that he had already fought with someone and lost?
"Your Majesty Saint Sovereign, I apologize. My luck was poor and I ran into an extremely strong Divine Lord realm desolate beast. I was entangled by that desolate beast and was even injured. I was lucky enough to escape, so I didn't have the time to take the advancement token!"
Haotian Chen explained helplessly.
So that was how it was!
Many people were moved. Haotian Chen did not lose to someone else, but his luck was bad. He encountered an extremely terrifying desolate beast and was injured by it.
"Hahaha, Brother Jing, looks like your luck is not good. Looks like I'm the winner of this competition. You won't get the Soul Cultivating Flower!"
Tianyi Saint Emperor laughed loudly.
"Damn it!"
The Great Void Saint Emperor clenched his fists tightly. His face was extremely gloomy.
Haotian Chen was the key to this competition. As the top sky-pride of the Taixu Dynasty, he was eliminated in the first round. This had a huge impact on the outcome of the competition.
It could be said that without Haotian Chen, the Taixu Dynasty was almost certain to lose.
"Damn it! Damn it! How could this be?"
The Great Void Saint Emperor roared in his heart.
Haotian Chen was an unparalleled sky-pride that the royal family had secretly nurtured. The Great Void Saint Emperor placed great importance on this competition. He had invested a lot of resources on these sky-prides so that they could win this competition and obtain the Soul Cultivating Flower.
As long as he could obtain the Soul Cultivating Flower, he could live for another half a stellar year. With this time, anything was possible. He might even be able to break through and reach the next realm.
However, without the Soul Cultivating Flower, he really could not live for long. He did not have much lifespan left.
With Haotian Chen eliminated, his hopes were dashed.
The Great Void Saint Emperor's face was extremely ugly. Terrifying murderous intent spread in all directions. The heavens and earth were filled with a terrifying pressure. Many people broke out in cold sweat and almost knelt down.
The Great Void Saint Emperor's strength was too terrifying.
"Brother Jing, calm down. At your level, can't you see past life and death?"
Tianyi Saint Emperor sneered. He was obviously making sarcastic remarks.
The higher one's cultivation level and status, the more they could not see past life and death.
The Great Void Saint Emperor took a deep breath and slowly calmed down before sitting down.
"The competition has yet to begin. The outcome is still uncertain!"
The Great Void Saint Emperor said coldly.
"Is that so?"
Tianyi Saint Emperor was full of smiles.
No one noticed that the Crown Prince, who was by the side, had a smug smile on his face.
All of this was naturally his handiwork.
No one knew that Haotian Chen had already submitted to the Crown Prince. Haotian Chen's elimination this time was also arranged by the Crown Prince.
He was the one who deliberately allowed Haotian Chen to be eliminated. Encountering a powerful desolate beast was naturally an excuse.
He did not want the Taixu Dynasty to win. If the Taixu Dynasty won, wouldn't the Great Void Saint Emperor live for another half a stellar year?
He could not wait any longer!
In fact, even if Di Jianyi could kill Lu Ming this time, Di Jianyi would not take an advancement token because Di Jianyi was too powerful.
Everything was within the Crown Prince's expectations.
The only one he did not expect was Lu Ming.
It was a pity that Lu Ming was not killed by Di Jianyi.
"However, Lu Ming actually obtained an advancement token. That's good. Who knows, he might be killed by the people from the Tianyi Sacred Dynasty during the competition?"
The Crown Prince smiled in his heart.
The Imperial Advisor obviously thought of this as well and revealed a look of anticipation.
"Haha, Haotian Chen, you were actually eliminated in advance. What a pity. Originally, we wanted to determine the outcome of this competition. I did not expect you to be defeated in advance. With your defeat, the outcome of this competition has already been decided!"
On the Tianyi Sacred Dynasty's side, a youth laughed. This person had silver skin and was from a special tribe. Moreover, he was the top supreme talent of the Tianyi Sacred Dynasty.
The Tianyi Sacred Dynasty and the Taixu Dynasty were close to each other. They competed and reconciled at times. The top supreme talents of both sides naturally knew each other.
Haotian Chen and the top supreme talent of the Tianyi Sacred Dynasty had fought before. The two of them had fought a total of three times and were evenly matched.
This time, Haotian Chen was eliminated in advance. Was there anyone in the Taixu Dynasty who could be a match for him?
"Humph!"
Hao Tian Chen's fake will snorted coldly and retreated to the side without saying a word.
"Alright, the candidates are out. Next, let's proceed to the second round!"
Meanwhile, Emperor Tianyi said, "The rules of the 2nd round are very simple. It's a 2 on 2 battle. Both sides will send out 1 person each. The victorious side can choose to rest temporarily or continue fighting. Just like that, the battles will continue until one side is completely defeated!"
