Chapter 156: Conflict before the Battle
Lin Zhao was more surprised than shocked when she learned of the result. In her estimation, the other party had made so many calculations that if she didn't win, she would lose!
"Now all that's left is a big fight." Lin Zhao looked at Ning Wengui: "What do you think?"
Ning Wengui said: "In fact, the Palace Master said before I participated in the competition that the four-party alliance for this continental competition was too well prepared, and the order given to us was to put our lives first."
Zou Zihan said: "The college also means the same thing."
The Tianhuang Continent has been full of loopholes over the years and has been weak for a long time. It has long been unable to suppress these sub-continents that are eyeing it covetously. Therefore, in this continental competition, the top leaders of the Tianhuang Continent only placed their hopes on the Tianhuang Selection and the Qiongyuan Tower.
"It turns out that the teachers had already thought of this." Lin Zhao couldn't help but sigh for the top management of Nanhai College.
Zou Zihan's face turned red after he finished speaking: "It was Zhang Tao, a traitor among us, who almost forced us to withdraw before the competition even started."
"The higher-ups can't predict everything." Su Bai expressed a different opinion: "At least our Thunder Palace never told me to put my life first."
After hearing this, Lei Yuanzi's mouth twitched, and he thought to himself, based on your strength, is it necessary to say this?
Lin Zhao interrupted their recollections and asked, "So their words are more about the third level of the fight, right?"
Ning Wengui nodded: "Do you remember the rules of the melee I told you before? In the melee, 30 people from each continent will stand on the platform to fight against the puppets of the Spirit Source Land. The winner will be determined by the quality and quantity of the puppets defeated."
Lin Zhao asked, "You also said it could be more complicated. How can it be more complicated?"
"Take the cards and win the points."
Qu Shu answered on behalf of Ning Wengui: "Each of us who enters Tianhuangyuan has a token. When the melee begins, this token will become a scoreboard, recording all the points you have earned. When the last puppet battle is over, there will be a one-day and one-night gap. During this gap, the disciples on the melee platform can choose to jump off the platform to keep the existing points, or they can choose to seize the tokens of other continents within this one-day and one-night. Then the points on the other side's token will belong to the person who gets the token."
After hearing this rule, Su Ye couldn't help but ask, "What if someone doesn't use all their strength when fighting a puppet, and reserves their energy to wait for others to take it?"
Su Bai crossed his arms and said, "Don't worry. The puppets on the battle stage are created by Tianhuangyuan according to the maximum endurance limit of each disciple. If you don't try your best, you will either be knocked off the stage by the puppets, or die on the stage and become nutrients for the puppets."
Lin Zhao heard this and said, "Doesn't it mean that the stronger the person, the higher the points they get in the puppet stage?"
"That's the theory, so basically at the puppet level, the top three have already appeared." Ning Wengui nodded.
The candidates for this level could be the same as those for the previous two levels, so Lin Zhao didn't bother too much. After a brief discussion with Su Baining, he selected the top 30 strongest people.
Lin Zhao looked at the direction of the Four-Party Alliance, but still felt uneasy. He said, "Although we now have the power to rival the Four-Party Alliance, I still want to remind you that safety is the most important thing."
Everyone nodded, and after quickly making the assignments, they waited for the battle stage to appear.
Mo Zun suddenly said to Lin Zhao, "I thought that Tianhuang Continent should give up its position as the number one continent after reaching this point. I didn't expect that it could still gain an advantage in the first two levels this time. I was surprised."
Lin Zhao didn't bother to pay attention to his sour words.
Zou Zihan on the side replied with a smile: "Even if sheep flock together, they are no match for a lone wolf, right?"
Mo Zun seemed to be waiting for this sentence, but it didn't come out of Lin Zhao's mouth, which made him a little unhappy.
With his status, he should at least compete with Lin Zhao. However, Lin Zhao pretended to be polite and refused to speak. Instead, she let the minions around her deal with him, which was clearly a humiliation to him.
"Everyone, you have heard it. Tianhuang Continent is worthy of being the number one continent. It disdains to associate with us." Mo Zun spoke to the disciples from other continents who had formed the Four-Party Alliance. His words were full of provocation.
Lin Zhao could naturally tell that Mo Zun was looking for an excuse to expand the conflict between the Tianhuang Continent and the Four-Party Alliance to the conflict between the Tianhuang Continent and all sub-continents.
There were also representatives from the subcontinent who had long been dissatisfied with the Tianhuang Continent. They immediately echoed and said with a smile: "If it was the Tianhuang Continent a thousand years ago that called itself a wolf and looked down on us sheep, it would be fine. But now this sick wolf is dying, it's just a last gasp, and it's mocking a group of adult sheep with sharp horns. It's really overestimating its own capabilities."
As the captain spoke, the disciple from the sub-continent stood behind the sub-continent without leaving a trace.
Su Ye was about to speak when he saw this, but was scared away by Lin Zhao's look.
Lin Zhao looked at Mo Zun indifferently, her eyes seemed to say "Let me see how you act".
Mo Zun was irritated by her calm gaze.
It has come to this, why are you pretending to be aloof?
"Captain Lu is right. If the previous Tianhuang Continent was the commander of our plane, we would have no objection. But in today's Tianhuang Continent, the younger generation is getting worse and worse in the continental competition. Even so, Tianhuang Continent will continue to occupy the best resources in this plane, which really makes us disciples of the sub-continent feel unwilling."
Many disciples from the sub-continent also moved their eyes slightly, and moved inconspicuously towards the direction of the four-party alliance.
"Yes, we have worse resources than the Tianhuang Continent, but we can still compete with them, which means our qualifications are better than theirs. Why should more resources be given to the Tianhuang Continent?"
This sentence is actually the voice of many people on the continent. Once it was spoken, at least half of the people came together to form a four-party alliance.
Lin Zhao waited until their team had finished standing before she spoke slowly.
"There is no point in saying more, but I will regard those who are fighting on the side of the Four Alliance as opponents of the Tianhuang Continent. I will give you a chance, and it is not too late for you to leave now."
Under Lin Zhao's somewhat cold gaze, several disciples from the mainland looked at each other, and finally quietly left the location of the Four-Party Alliance and walked towards a neutral place.
"We are the Golden Eagle Continent and the Sky Phoenix Continent." The captain of the Golden Eagle Continent suddenly spoke up, "When the various sub-continents first separated from the Sky Phoenix Continent and split into other continents, when we were not strong enough and the demons rioted, it was the forces of the Sky Phoenix Continent that supported us. We will never forget this kindness."
This sentence made the faces of the disciples from other continents look ugly.
Mo Zun smiled faintly and didn't care: "When we take the position of the first continent, we will also support other continents."
In his opinion, the supply of support and resources from Tianhuang Continent to other continents in the early years was nothing more than a show of strength.
In recent years, the strength of the younger generation in Tianhuang Continent has been declining year by year. No matter what the reason is, since they can't hold on to this position, the more capable ones should take over.
As they spoke, they completely forgot about the support from the Tianhuang Continent and did not ask for any return from the sub-continent.
Lin Zhao was not angry about his attitude. He just smiled and nodded towards the Golden Eagle Continent, then looked towards the location of the Four-Party Alliance and spoke.
"I'll be waiting for you on the platform."
