Chapter 1037
The black market workers didn't dare to say a word at this point!
The crucial point is that their black market heirs all sided with this "senior"...
Then don't even mention killing someone for that old monster, Nie Wu.
Even if you killed me, it wouldn't be too much for you!
Thus, the farce that started because of Jiang Yi was quelled as if by his few casual words.
The Snow Elephant Clan members and the black market staff dispersed together.
Even though the onlookers were still in a state of shock, they dared not make any further comments about the matter.
They even sat up straight and looked towards the arena area, not daring to glance at Jiang Yi's seats anymore.
Of course, the audience also felt regret—
The much-anticipated Old Monster, Nie Wu, still hasn't made his appearance...
However, a few viewers had a suspicion that they had dismissed from the beginning—
The "senior" to whom the Snow Elephant Clan Chief entrusted the crystal ball...
Could it really be that old monster Nie Wu?
Although the Snow Elephant Clan Chief did not explicitly reveal it, it is not difficult to infer from his words and actions...
It seems that the clan leader initially identified the old monster Nie Wu as the target for delivering the crystal ball.
Finally, the crystal ball was handed to that senior... According to that senior, it seemed that the proper delivery had been completed...
So from this perspective...
That "senior" could very well be none other than the old monster, Nie Wu!
Although the generally accepted image of the old monster Nie Wu is that of a mechanical figure resembling a mannequin.
However, most players believe that this is just an image that the old monster Nie Wu presents to the outside world.
It's entirely possible that the old monster has other forms, used for seclusion and travel...
So……
Considering Nie Wu Laoguai's own status, it is indeed unlikely that he would appear in the mere Level III division of the preliminary rounds.
But if we set aside identity and think about it from the perspective of "traveling"...
Therefore, the old monster Nie Wu in his "traveling" state could appear anywhere!
So, that senior...
It is indeed very possible that it is the old monster, Nie Wu!
Moreover, this farce was essentially caused by that young man from the Snow Elephant tribe.
It was that young man who first disrespected his senior.
The "pigeon brother" who came later was just a friend whom the young man had brought in to testify...
As a result, the "senior" ultimately did not punish the Snow Elephant youth in any way.
Instead, he killed "Brother Pigeon" without a word.
Therefore, the "senior" killing "Brother Pigeon" was not because "Brother Pigeon" disrespected him, but because "Brother Pigeon" was impersonating Old Monster Nie Wu's student...
From this perspective of motivation...
This "senior" is even more like the old monster, Nie Wu!
If that's the case, then that "Brother Pigeon" truly deserved to die!
Impersonating a student, and actually managing to impersonate the real person in front of them...
For a moment, some viewers began to imagine various cause-and-effect relationships.
Meanwhile, Jiang Yi and the others, who were in a secluded corner of the audience, naturally ignored the thoughts and opinions of the onlookers and sat down again.
Que Yun clearly had something he wanted to ask Jiang Yi.
However, Jiang Yi spoke first:
"You should already have a spot in the qualifying rounds, so you don't need to participate in any preliminary rounds, right?"
"So... why didn't you participate in the elite training program open to the Cursed Clan's battlefield?"
Jiang Yi noticed it on the battlefield of the Cursed Clan Realm—
The invading forces on that battlefield were indeed composed of geniuses from the Longevity Academy, who were among the top talents of the younger generation.
But it's clearly still lacking something...
Some truly exceptional talents with profound backgrounds did not appear in that realm battlefield.
Jiang Yi initially thought that the real prodigies were assigned to the "off-field support" slots.
Tianchou's intervention directly led to the core of the invading camp being deemed destroyed.
Therefore, those top talents who were originally scheduled to enter the battlefield as "off-field support" players lost their chance to actually enter the battlefield...
However, judging from the current state of Queyun and Beiwu...
They seemed completely unconcerned about the situation on the boundary battlefield.
They are paying more attention to the preliminary rounds.
It's as if they didn't participate in that so-called "special training" at all.
As expected, Que Yun's answer confirmed Jiang Yi's guess.
“I did indeed qualify for the selection competition, and I should have participated in the special training on the battlefield of the Cursed Clan Realm…”
"However, the elders of the clan refused this 'special training' on my behalf, arguing that as the young master of the black market, I should attend this preliminary competition held within the black market."
