In their opinion, the people who provoked the Four Vicious Beasts Array would be punished very quickly. But what they didn't expect was that after more than ten breaths of time, the entire martial arts field was still quiet. No one had any accidents.
The only thing that changed was that the roars of the four statues gradually calmed down. Then, the four statues returned to their previous state, as if nothing had happened.
What was going on? Why were the Four Ferocious Beasts so angry? If someone was provoking them, shouldn't the person who was provoked be punished? For a moment, everyone at the scene was confused.
Because of this, no one in the martial arts field spoke. At that moment, the martial arts field with at least tens of thousands of people was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop.
"If someone was provoking them, the Four Ferocious Beasts would definitely punish that person. However, why didn't anyone cause any problems?"
"Could it be that the Four Ferocious Beasts are dissatisfied with today's competition and want us to stop organizing it?"
"We don't know. If the Four Ferocious Beasts really have such thoughts, we really have to stop organizing it."
At this moment, in the middle of the martial arts field, the gathered elders were whispering to each other.
The Four Ferocious Beasts were equivalent to their ancestors. If their ancestors really had such an attitude, they naturally had to change it.
Then, they shifted their gazes to one of them.
"Vice Sect Leader, how should we decide on this matter?" Then, they asked almost in unison.
Since the Sect Leader was not here, everything naturally had to be decided by the Vice Sect Leader.
The Vice Sect Leader was a bald old man. Seeing that all the elders' gazes were focused on him, he pondered for a moment and said, "Then, let me communicate with the Four Ferocious Beasts."
Although this kind of communication was extremely exhausting and if the Four Ferocious Beasts vented their anger on him, other unexpected things would happen.
However, at this time, the Vice Sect Leader had no other choice.
As soon as they heard that he wanted to communicate with the Four Ferocious Beasts, the elders immediately stopped talking. The others also did the same. Everyone's gazes were focused on the Vice Sect Leader.
The Vice Sect Leader took a deep breath and began to close his eyes. It seemed like he was closing his eyes, but from his expression, it was obvious that he was doing something extremely hard.
A moment later, cold sweat even appeared on his forehead.
"Roar, roar, roar …"
After a while, the roars of the Four Great Vicious Beasts erupted in the sky above the entire training field.
The only difference was that there were no changes to the statues this time.
Could it be that the four ferocious beasts were still dissatisfied? When they heard such a roar, the people from the Demon Sect could not help but worry.
Fortunately, these voices quickly disappeared, and the entire martial arts field regained its tranquility.
After a while, the Vice Sect Master finally opened his eyes, but his entire body was drenched in cold sweat. Those who didn't know him well would think that he had taken a trip to the gates of hell.
"Vice Sect Master, how is it?" Seeing the Vice Sect Master open his eyes, the surrounding elders immediately asked.
"The four great vicious beast seniors are indeed furious again and again. It seems like someone really did offend them." The vice sect master said.
"Who is so bold to actually dare to anger the four great vicious beast seniors in our Holy Gate's main altar?" Hearing the Vice Sect Master's words, the elders were all furious.
"I don't know about that. In short, the information that the four great vicious beast seniors returned to me is very vague. I can only guess, and due to the state that the four great vicious beast seniors are in, I don't dare to ask too much." The Vice Sect Master shook his head.
"Then what should we do?"
"Are we still going to continue with the martial arts competition this time?"
For a moment, the elders all asked the same question.
"Continue with the martial arts competition." After pondering for a moment, the Vice Sect Master said, "However, during this period of time, all of you have to patrol the entire martial arts field. If you find any suspicious behavior or suspicious people, immediately deal with them!"
"Yes!" The elders said in unison.
After that, they no longer stayed in the same place, but patrolled the entire martial arts field. Not only them, but the other experts of the Demon Sect also did the same.
If someone really challenged the authority of the Demon Sect in their Holy Gate's main altar, they would not let it go.
"I really didn't expect that such a thing would happen today."
"Could it be that someone is really provoking our Sacred Gate here?"
"In my opinion, the probability of such a thing happening is very low. After all, this is our Sacred Gate's main altar. If someone really causes trouble here, they won't be able to escape even if they have wings."
After waiting for things to calm down, the people of the Demon Sect started discussing.
Little did they know that the reason why the four great vicious beasts were enraged was because Lin Long had used his Divine Sense to touch them.
Lin Long's Divine Sense was powerful, so he could naturally sense deeper. When the four great vicious beasts realized that there was a Divine Sense probing them, they were naturally furious.
Due to Yu Linlong's powerful Spiritual Force, which allowed him to come and go without a trace, the Four Great Ferocious Beasts did not discover him. In the end, they even had the illusion that there was no Spiritual Force spying on them.
Because of this, the information that they gave to the Vice Sect Master was very vague.
This was the Demon Sect's main altar, so it would be disadvantageous for him if he was exposed. Moreover, he felt that even if he tried to sense them again, he would not be able to get any useful information. Therefore, Lin Long temporarily gave up on such an action.
Of course, when the time was right, he did not mind teaching the four great vicious beasts a lesson.
After a period of time, when it was confirmed that there was really nothing going on, the martial arts competition officially began.
Although it was called a martial arts competition, it was actually held in several regions. For example, the Soaring Eagle Squad belonged to the Southwest Region.
The reason for this was because there were too many people, and the people of the Demon Sect did not really want to divide the participants into specific rankings.
In short, it was just to select the suitable candidates to enter the main altar.
There were a total of four regions, and the southwest region's competition was held in the southwest of the martial arts arena.
Although there were more people, more than 20 people, there were only five people from the Soaring Eagle Squad participating in this competition.
Of course, if Yang Feiyu was still there, there would be six people.
Lin Long and Lu Lingling were two of the five people.
Before the competition began, an old man in front of them said to Lu Zhiyi proudly, "Hall Master Lu, I heard that your disciple, Yang Feiyu, is very talented. Why is he not participating in this competition? Could it be that your Soaring Eagle Squad is afraid of our Hall of Spirit and Justice? Because our Hall of Spirit and Justice joined the Southwest Region this time, you don't even dare to send out your core disciples. Are you afraid that our Hall of Spirit and Justice will break your limbs?"
"Elder Shen, if you say such truth, Hall Master Lu's face will turn ugly."
"If Hall Master Lu's face turns ugly, then so be it. Who asked his Soaring Eagle Squad's disciples to be so weak?"
"Elder Shen is right, hahaha …"
As soon as the old man's voice fell, the people beside him immediately echoed.
"Elder Shen, the competition hasn't started yet, don't talk big, or you will be slapped in the face later!" Lu Zhiyi said coldly. Normally, he did not get along with these people, but now that they were mocking him in public, he naturally had to retort.
If it was in the past, he would not be so confident, but it was different this time. This time, he had a monster like Lin Long under his' sect '.
Because of this thought, he was glad that he had been threatened by Lin Long.
Of course, even though Lin Long was powerful, he was still worried. After all, Lin Long had only cultivated demonic arts for a short period of time.
"Junior Lin, the people on the other side are from the Hall of Divine Justice. In the past, they did not get along with our Soaring Eagle Squad, but they are not in the southwest region and do not have much direct contact with our Soaring Eagle Squad. But this time, because they have a few disciples that they are proud of, in order to deal with and humiliate us, they actually moved their branch to the southwest region. Because of this, they are grouped with us." Lu Lingling explained in Lin Long's ear.
Hearing Lu Lingling's words, Lin Long could not help but feel that it was funny. In his opinion, Lu Zhiyi must have stolen someone else's wife. Otherwise, why would he do something like moving their branch?
"Junior Lin, there are a few powerful people in the Hall of Divine Justice, so you really have to be careful." Lu Lingling then warned him again.
"Yes, I know." Lin Long nodded.
Seeing that Lin Long seemed to listen to her words, Lu Lingling could not help but feel a little gratified. Little did she know that Lin Long did not care about the Hall of Divine Justice at all.
In just a little while, the southwest region's competition would officially begin.
As one of the four great regions, the southwest region had many branches. There were more than fifty of them, and each branch had four to eight people participating. In total, there were more than three hundred people. Thus, the scale of the competition was not small.
Of course, this scale was enough for the southwest region, which occupied a quarter of the entire training grounds.
Due to the large number of people and uneven strength, one's future would not be decided by a single competition. Overall, one's strength would be judged.
The judges were naturally the elders who were acting as referees on the side.
Of course, a single competition could also decide one's future, and that was to be heavily injured or crippled. In that case, even if one's strength was decent, they would not be accepted as a disciple by the headquarters.
This was the situation that Lu Zhiyi and the other members of the Soaring Eagle Squad were worried about. Although there were many people, as the competition progressed, they would encounter people from opposing branches.
At that time, if the other party was ruthless, such a situation would occur.
As fists and feet had no eyes, and blades and swords were merciless, if the situation was not very obvious, the elders at the side would not judge the other party for violating the rules.
And even if one violated the rules, if one was heavily injured or crippled, they would naturally not receive pity from the Demon Sect.
