After quickly killing the Snake-Tailed Tiger, Xiao Chen advanced to the next stage unharmed.
The others were not as lucky.
The Hou was the natural nemesis of the Dragon Race. It was a faction rooted in the depths of the bloodline, something that could not be changed.
The Dragon Race bloodline, which could suppress most mutated beast bloodlines, was helpless before the Hou.
The Silver Dragon Palace's Yuan Xi instantly paled when he felt the Snake-Tailed Tiger in the pillar.
Yuan Xi had not expected Ancestor Dragon City's people to be so cruel, setting up such a difficult stage in the first stage.
Fortunately, they were all peak existences of the Seven Great Outer Palaces.
Even if they could not defeat it, they did not have to worry about survival. If it were an ordinary heaven-class core disciple, they would not be able to resist this Snake-Tailed Tiger with the Hou bloodline.
They would be torn to shreds in two or three bites.
Yuan Xi did his best to remain calm, hoping that the Hou bloodline in the Snake-Tailed Tiger would not affect him.
However, fear lingered. No matter how calm he was, he could only bring out seventy percent of his strength.
Being able to bring out seventy percent was already pretty good. The disciples of the other outer palaces could only bring out fifty percent.
At the very least, Yuan Xi could kill this Snake-Tailed Tiger with seventy percent of his strength. Fifty percent would be too much.
The only one who fared better was Qin Mu.
Although Qin Mu was affected as well, he possessed the noblest Golden Dragon bloodline. Furthermore, his bloodline was Grade 7.
Furthermore, the current Dragon Emperor was a Golden Divine Dragon.
This allowed Qin Mu to borrow the Dragon Emperor's Dragon Might and bring out eighty percent of his strength.
If there were no surprises, Qin Mu should be the first to kill this Snake-Tailed Tiger, aside from Xiao Chen.
--- The leaders of the various outer palaces stood on the light steps that stretched across the sky. They did not know what the disciples in the formation were experiencing.
Only three bronze doors waited to open in the huge formation plate.
"Lord Feng, what are the tests in the first stage?"
The Green Dragon Palace's Palace Master asked curiously as he looked at the white-bearded old man from Ancestor Dragon City.
The white-bearded old man replied casually, "There is nothing special about the first stage. Aside from the increased gravity, the dangerous environment, and your own attacks, the Snake-Tailed Tiger is somewhat difficult to deal with."
"What?!"
These words caused the faces of the Hall Masters to change greatly.
Elder Tian Yun was even more stunned. He felt like he could not stand stably. He looked at the First Palace Master beside him and said in a fluster, "First Palace Master, Xiao Chen, he …"
It was common knowledge that the bloodline power of a mixed-blood dragon was the weakest.
In the face of the Snake-tailed Tiger with the Nightmare Beast bloodline, its resistance was undoubtedly the weakest.
However, the Hall Masters of the other Outer Halls did not look good either. It was obvious that they were worried about the Snake-tailed Tiger.
However, the Golden Dragon Palace's Palace Master appeared very confident. He said, "It looks like the first to push open the bronze doors will be my Golden Dragon Palace's Qin Mu. Aside from Qin Mu, I cannot think of anyone else who can deal with the Snake-Tailed Tiger the fastest."
The other Hall Masters knew that what Xiao Chen said was true.
The bloodline of the Golden Divine Dragon was the noblest, and Qin Mu's bloodline was a seventh-grade one. His advantage in this round was too great.
The Golden Dragon Palace's Third Palace Master glanced over and fixed his gaze on First Palace Master Yi Xin. He smiled and said softly, "Brother Yi Xin, you have to worry. Although it is dangerous for the Divine Dragon outer palace disciples to face the Snake-tailed Tiger, their lives will not be in danger. On the other hand, I fear that your Xiao Chen will not be able to last in a few exchanges. After all, the bloodline is there. Lord Feng, why don't you give him a chance to give up in this round? "
The other Hall Masters immediately felt happy when they thought about it. This was rather interesting.
Before the competition between the seven outer palaces, this Xiao Chen had been very famous in the Heaven Dragon Palace.
This was especially so when Xiao Chen fought against two Divine Dragon outer palace heaven-class core disciples when the three outer palaces gathered.
While Xiao Chen might still be somewhat weaker than the strongest heaven-class core disciples of the various outer palaces, such a heaven-defying mixed-blood dragon cultivator had rarely appeared in the past few centuries.
However, who could have expected a horrifying and terrifying existence of the Snake-tailed Tiger to appear in the first round?
This was simply a destructive blow to a mixed-blood dragon cultivator.
As the saying went, "Bad luck."
The white-bearded old man entered deep thought. He did not care about the conflict between the Golden Dragon Palace and the Heaven Dragon Palace. After thinking rationally, he looked at the First Palace Master and asked, "Yi Xin, what do you think? Going by convention, one cannot give up. However, this year's test is indeed somewhat special. I do not know what happened in there, but I can sense that Xiao Chen is still alive. If you have any thoughts, I can get Xiao Chen to withdraw. "
"Haha! Brother Yi Xin, stop holding on. Lord Feng already said that. Why are you still holding on? "the Silver Dragon Palace's Palace Master said casually with a soft laugh.
"That's right. What is there to think about? In any case, aside from the top three, the other outer palaces will be at the bottom. Giving up will not have much of an impact. In any case, the Heaven Dragon Palace ranks last every year. This time, everyone will rank last with you. That is already pretty good. "
With the existence of the Heaven Dragon Palace, the other outer palaces' nervous moods eased somewhat, and they started to tease each other.
The human heart was strange. Many times, since one could not obtain the first rank, it was fine as long as one did not embarrass oneself at the bottom.
With the Heaven Dragon Palace here, everyone felt much better. As long as the First Palace Master gave up, everyone would be at the bottom.
They would still be able to suppress the Heaven Dragon Palace and not be at the bottom.
At this moment, First Palace Master Yi Xin felt conflicted, suffering. He had never felt such a difficult choice before.
On one hand, the leaders of the various Divine Dragon outer palaces mocked and mocked him. On the other hand, he worried about Xiao Chen's safety and struggled with whether to give up or not.
No matter what, he should prioritize Xiao Chen's safety.
However, First Palace Master Yi Xin felt somewhat dissatisfied. This was a great opportunity for the Heaven Dragon Palace to obtain a good ranking. The heavens blessed the Heaven Dragon bloodline, allowing Xiao Chen to appear in the Heaven Dragon Palace.
First Palace Master Yi Xin remembered that proud, white-clad youth when he first entered the Heaven Dragon Palace. He bluntly told Tian Yun that he would regret it.
He could still remember the shock he felt when he heard the news of him slaying Rakshasa Tian's clone in the first Netherworld!
Xiao Chen still remembered the white-clad Xiao Chen who stood at the top of the Heaven Dragon and executed the Supreme Dragon Fist, showing his unyielding character and shocking the surroundings.
Xiao Chen still remembered the joy he, his second brother, and his third brother felt when they learned that Xiao Chen fought against two Divine Dragon Palace heaven-class core disciples by himself during the gathering of the three outer palaces.
He still remembered the promise he made with Xiao Chen before he left, as well as the fighting spirit burning in his eyes and the unwavering determination on his face.
…
The First Palace Master thought about many things. However, in the end, he still decided to let Xiao Chen live.
No matter what, as long as one was alive, there would be hope. Life was the most important thing.
However, just as the First Palace Master was about to speak, Elder Tian Yun suddenly pulled the First Palace Master back and said, "First Palace Master, let's make a bet. I understand Xiao Chen. If we let him give up like this, even if it's for his own good, he might never forgive us for the rest of his life. "
"But …"
Elder Tian Yun said resolutely, "First Palace Master, have you forgotten what he said to me when he first came to the Heaven Dragon Palace? Have you forgotten about the white-clad figure who stood at the top of the Heaven Dragon, comprehended the Heaven Dragon's mysteries, and executed the Supreme Dragon Fist? First Palace Master, trust me. Don't give up. Otherwise, Xiao Chen will never forgive us for the rest of his life. He is not someone who gives up easily. If even he did not give up, yet we gave up, what would he think?! "
The First Palace Master was stunned when he heard that. It was like lightning struck his mind.
That's right. If even Xiao Chen did not give up, yet we gave up on him, what would he think?
He was a Dragon Race cultivator who dared to take the risk to shatter Rakshasa Tian's clone. How could he give up before a Snake-Tailed Tiger?
A light flashed in the First Palace Master's eyes. He no longer wavered as he said, "Many thanks, Lord Feng. The Heaven Dragon Palace will not give up. It will not give up on its disciple."
There was still something that the First Palace Master did not say.
The Heaven Dragon Palace could not remain at the bottom forever.
Lord Feng found this slightly strange. However, since the First Palace Master made his choice, he did not say anything.
This decision surprised the Palace Masters of the other Divine Dragon palaces.
The Golden Dragon Palace's Third Palace Master's face sank. He smiled coldly and said, "Brother Yi Xin, you are really going all out. For the sake of a good ranking, you even disregard the lives of your disciples. However, thinking about it, it makes sense. In any case, he is just a mixed-blood dragon. Even if he dies, Brother Yi Xin will not care. "
"Do you wish to die?"
First Palace Master Yi Xin's face turned sullen when he heard that. A cold murderous intent spread in his voice, inspiring fear in everyone.
This startled the others.
They thought to themselves, Oh no! This Golden Dragon Palace's Third Palace Master went overboard.
They had also forgotten how terrifying the Heaven Dragon Palace's First Palace Master was.
The other party's bloodline was not high, but his comprehension ability was startling. When he was young, he had been an unruly person.
Back then, during the empire's war, this man before them had relied on his military merits to climb to the position of the Heaven Dragon Palace's First Palace Master.
Xiao Chen was not like them. While they were strong, they relied more on the power of their clans.
The White Dragon Palace's First Palace Master quickly tried to mediate. "Brother Qin, your words are a little overboard. We are all people of the Dragon Race. How can there be a difference in strength? No matter who it is, this concerns lives. It is a major matter!"
"Right, right, right. Brother Qin, just apologize. Stop speaking."
Fortunately, the other Palace Masters gave him a way out. The Golden Dragon Palace's Third Palace Master knew that he was in the wrong. He also feared Yi Xin's strength somewhat, so he said casually, "Sorry, Brother Yi Xin. I said the wrong thing earlier. Let me apologize to you."
The First Palace Master wanted to flare up. However, Ancestor Dragon City's Lord Feng was here, so he could not say anything, so he could only drop the subject.
When the Golden Dragon Palace's Third Palace Master saw this scene, he smiled coldly to himself. A mixed-blood dragon is just a mixed-blood dragon.
