Chapter 5349 Fiend Blood Battlefield

chapter 5349 fiend blood battlefield

this roulette was a magical artifact, which was covered in countless runes that began to flash when an assistant pavilion master activated it. after a moment, the flashing stopped, and an egg-sized sphere of light dropped into a stone case at the bottom of the roulette. the stone case was then handed to the assistant pavilion master.

both the roulette and the stone case were protected by formations, preventing anyone from seeing inside. long chen could only see a sphere fall into the case. but he didn’t know exactly what that was.

the elder slowly reached into the stone case. long chen frowned and glanced at feng xinyue, who happened to meet his gaze at that moment.

“long chen, what’s wrong?” asked tang wan-er.

seeing feng xinyue unbothered by it, long chen shook his head. “nothing much. it’s just rather funny how they like cheating so much. how shameless... i can’t believe they wasted all their years living like a dog.”

his voice wasn’t loud, but it was clear enough for most of the experts present to hear. the assistant pavilion master's expression twitched in response.

as the elder reached into the stone case, his sleeve moved oddly, and long chen instantly noticed something strange. he quickly deduced that the elder was hiding another sphere in his sleeve, using his sleight of hand to switch the objects.

this kind of trick was something long chen had seen long ago in the phoenix cry empire. who would have thought the same scam would appear here, in the immortal world? it seemed that his experiences had truly opened his eyes to the ways of the world.

both long chen and feng xinyue noticed the deceit, but since feng xinyue didn't say anything, long chen saw no point in exposing it.

the guilty elder pretended not to hear anything. he simply raised the sphere in his hand and announced, “it is the fiend blood battlefield! the ranking competition will take place in the fiend blood battlefield!”

this trial would be scored based on the number of crystals each group returned with. the group that ranked last would be eliminated. in the past, only sixteen groups competed, but this time there were seventeen, meaning one group had to be eliminated before the real ranking competition began.

once these rules were explained, long chen understood that this trial tested a group’s cohesive power. with him leading the hidden dragon legion, he wasn’t afraid. the hidden dragon warriors were no longer the weak women they once were. they had transformed into true experts, and it was time to reap the rewards of their hard work.

long chen checked the other groups. in terms of talent and aptitude, those people truly did surpass the hidden dragon warriors. however, all of them were incredibly arrogant and prideful. they were clearly greenhouse flowers that had never fought real battles.

in a one-on-one fight, long chen was confident that none of these groups could rival the hidden dragon legion. so, even though the elder had pulled a fast one, long chen wasn’t concerned. as he always believed, schemes were powerless in the face of absolute strength.

feng xinyue also didn’t say anything, which showed that those old fools could at most play some little tricks. if they dared to go overboard, feng xinyue would go crazy on them.

though feng xinyue and tang wan-er’s conversation seemed directed at tang wan-er, it was also intended for long chen. the underlying message was clear: he didn’t need to hold back. if tang wan-er were mistreated, it was up to him to take action.

that was a good thing. after all, long chen had long since found these people dislikable. with feng xinyue’s backing, holding back would be betraying his true nature.

after the rules were explained, the assistant pavilion master offered some half-hearted words of encouragement before distributing the new tablets to everyone. these were life-saving tablets, so everyone carefully accepted them. although they might not end up using them, not having one in a moment of need could spell disaster.

once everyone had a tablet, long chen noticed the cold smiles from the other groups, so long chen smiled back at them, finding the mutual disdain amusing.

at that moment, the wind dominion pearl at the top of the wind god sea pavilion emitted a radiant light. long chen felt a powerful suction force envelop him and his group, and in an instant, they vanished.
