Hearing that, Zhong Qi nodded and also retracted his gaze.
However, Zhang Ziyi was a little angry when she heard their words.
She felt that the two of them were too much.
Especially Zhang Xiong. After all, Lin Tian had saved her life.
If not for Lin Tian, she might have fallen into Fan Wei's clutches and been in so much pain that she wished she was dead.
As her father, not only was Zhang Xiong not grateful to the other party, he even helped others mock Lin Tian.
If not for the fact that there were many people present, including countless outsiders, Zhang Ziyi would have lost her temper long ago.
"Lin Tian, don't listen to them …"
Zhang Ziyi hurried to Lin Tian and wanted to explain, but she was interrupted by Lin Tian with a smile. "It's alright, they're right. I'm just a piece of trash at the Phenomenon State. I don't have the ability to take the Nine-Colored God Nourishing Flower."
Hearing this, Zhang Ziyi's face turned pale and red, feeling ashamed.
Lin Tian did not hide his voice, and Zhong Qi heard it too.
He turned around and looked at Zhang Ziyi, who was standing in front of Lin Tian with a nervous expression. A trace of displeasure flashed in his eyes before he looked at Lin Tian arrogantly and sneered. "Heh, you still have some self-awareness. Not bad!"
"Stand here and watch later. Today, I'll let you see what a true genius is. Otherwise, you'll think you're invincible after defeating a few kittens and puppies."
Hearing Zhong Qi's lecturing words, Lin Tian only found it funny.
He could not be bothered to argue with the other party and shook his head with a smile. "Alright then, please begin your performance today!"
Hearing Lin Tian's nonchalant reply, Zhong Qi's face darkened.
He knew that the other party did not take him seriously.
However, he did not care.
Because later, he would use his strength to tell Lin Tian how big the gap between them was.
Clang!
At this moment, a bell rang.
An old man with a dignified look walked up to the stage.
This old man was none other than the current head of the Wang family, as well as the only person in the Five Great Clans who came from the previous generation — Wang Yongnian.
After Wang Yongnian came to the stage, he didn't say much.
He looked around and said indifferently, "Is everyone ready?"
All the Patriarchs stood up and nodded.
Seeing this, Wang Yongnian continued, "Since you're ready, let's begin!"
With that, he turned around and left the stage.
"Clang!"
Immediately, the bell rang again.
Zhang Ziyi turned around and glanced at the geniuses from the various major forces. Then, she said to Lin Tian, "I'm going over."
"Go, good luck."
Lin Tian smiled faintly and encouraged.
"Yes, I will." Zhang Ziyi nodded vigorously, then turned and walked towards the stage.
As the leader of the younger generation of the Zhang family, Zhang Ziyi's talent was not weak. Among her peers, she was already considered very strong. However, compared to her sister Zhang Zilan and Zhong Qi, who could be called geniuses in the entire Northern Frontier, she was somewhat lacking.
Fortunately, the leaders of the other four major clans were not stronger than her.
Otherwise, they would not have to ask for external help.
Soon, almost all the participants from the five major forces had entered the arena. Only the Wang family had four participants.
"Hmm? Head of the Wang family, why are you missing one person? Are you going to give up? "
The patriarch of the Ye Clan mocked.
Zhang Xiong and the others also looked over with a trace of hope in their eyes.
Although they knew that it was impossible, they still hoped that it would happen.
After all, the Wang family's three consecutive championships had put too much pressure on them.
Without the Wang family, they didn't know how much easier it would be.
However, they also knew that it was just a thought.
In reality, it was impossible.
After all, this was not an ordinary competition.
It involved the fight for resources in Sky Snow City.
Even if Wang Yongnian had dementia and wanted to give up, the other members of the Wang family would not agree.
Sure enough, Wang Yongnian laughed and said, "You guys have a good idea. Unfortunately, reality is cruel. Our Wang family will not give up. It's just that there's one person left who is currently breaking through and will come later."
Hearing this, the expressions of Zhang Xiong and the others changed.
There was another person breaking through?
Needless to say, they knew that this breakthrough was definitely not breaking through to the Phenomenon Realm.
"Could it be that the Wang family is going to have another king in the Immortal Realm?"
Everyone's expressions gradually turned ugly.
The overall strength of the Wang family was originally stronger than theirs.
Now that there was another king in the Immortal Realm, they had no chance of winning.
Even Zhong Qi, who was originally full of confidence, did not look too good. He thought that he was not afraid of any external help from the other four major clans, but facing the Wang family with two kings, he did not have any confidence in his heart.
"Head of the Wang family, I'm afraid this is against the rules, right?"
Sure enough, someone soon became anxious.
The head of the Deng family said, "The competition has already started. What's the matter with entering halfway?"
"That's right, Head of the Wang family, aren't you taking advantage of this?"
The head of the Chen family, who had not spoken since the beginning, echoed with an ugly expression.
Zhang Xiong also nodded in agreement.
Because the Wang family's method was shameless, it was completely equivalent to taking advantage of the loopholes in the competition rules.
After all, the rules of the competition were very simple, which was to draw lots.
From one to five.
Whoever drew lot number one would be the first to choose an opponent.
Then in turn.
If the challenge was won, one point would be added.
Moreover, those who were defeated by the challenger would not be allowed to go on stage.
Of course, the opposite was also true.
If the challenge was lost, one point would be deducted.
Finally, the rankings would be based on their respective scores.
Under such rules, lot number five was the most passive.
Once targeted, it was very difficult to survive two rounds.
Not to mention fighting for a ranking.
Therefore, to win here, not only did one need outstanding strength.
At the same time, luck was also crucial.
Otherwise, unless one had the strength to crush everyone and was not afraid of taking turns to fight.
Otherwise, no matter how strong one was, once targeted after drawing lot number five, being able to guarantee not to be at the bottom was already very heaven-defying, let alone winning the championship. That was something that one did not even need to think about. It was simply impossible.
And the Wang family's current behavior was undoubtedly breaking the rules.
It was equivalent to cheating.
They had one less person, even if they drew lot number five, everyone would target them.
And all four of them would be eliminated in one go.
But they still did not lose.
After all, there was still one person who was not present.
As for this person, who was now breaking through, who knew when he would arrive?
They couldn't keep waiting for him here, right?
If they couldn't wait, then they could only continue.
In the end, who knew what the result would be.
What if there was only one person left?
At that time, that person from the Wang family would jump out again, in full condition and with the strength of the Immortal Realm, it would not be difficult to defeat his opponent and become the last person on the stage.
One had to know that in the competition of the five great families, apart from the simple challenge points.
The last person standing on the stage would be rewarded with ten points.
In other words, even if the Wang family lost in the early stages, as long as the person standing on the stage in the end was them, the Wang family would at least have six points.
It didn't seem much, but sometimes, it could play a key role.
Therefore, everyone was naturally unwilling to watch Wang Yongnian take advantage of the loopholes.
The Deng family head snorted coldly and said, "Patriarch Wang, the competition between the five great families is not a game. If you want, immediately find me the person, or randomly pick someone from the younger generation of your Wang family. Otherwise, after the lot is drawn, no one is allowed to go on stage. That is against the rules."
"Patriarch Deng is right. Patriarch Wang, make your decision quickly!"
Zhang Xiong and the others nodded one after another.
They wanted to force Wang Yongnian to make a decision before that person from the Wang family arrived.
It would be best if Wang Yongnian could randomly pick a weaker person.
After all, if the Wang family was allowed to continue like this, the balance between the five great families would be broken sooner or later.
