Beastmaster of the Ages - Chapter 7661
Chapter 7576: Let’s Go Together!
This is an almost unavoidable racial characteristic passed down through generations in the bloodline of the ‘Source Blood Clan’!
They don’t care who their opponent is or whether they have a chance of winning; they only crave a thoroughly enjoyable battle.
“Among these princes, the one we least want to encounter is probably the last one, named ‘Li Zhu.’ He has perfectly inherited the almost insane fighting bloodline of the Source Blood Emperor. Combined with the powerful physical strength of his bloodline, even geniuses of the same realm rarely dare to fight him. He truly fights without regard for his life!”
Some even clicked their tongues, scrutinizing this handsome young man in black, whose eyes held a deep-seated obsession with battle.
News of these princes from various allied nations not only circulated in Fengxu Street but also reached some elders in the Myriad Sects War Hall who were previously unaware of their identities.
Therefore, Li Dixiao and the others became even more worried about this battle.
“Heavenly Mandate only has one princess who can be considered an ally, but the opponents are five princes. This battle is likely to be truly difficult!” Li Zhaotang said with a worried expression.
Although Ji Xuanjing wasn’t of the Qianfeng Heavenly Emperor’s bloodline, he was still a member of the royal family, and his bloodline wasn’t significantly inferior. Furthermore, by using the rules to participate in the Wansui event, his threat level was even greater than that of ordinary princes!
And these were the challenges Li Tianming and Ji Xuanjian would face!
…
At this moment, inside the Upside-Down Tower.
Wan Yao and the others originally wanted to stand with Li Tianming and the others to face the formidable enemy before them.
However, Ji Xuanjian pushed them away with a slightly disdainful look, saying, “Go away, what are you all doing here? Just protect your Qianfeng Rings. You think you can just fly high after breaking through a little realm?”
While Ji Xuanjian’s attitude seemed somewhat harsh, Xiang Qin and the others, having spent a long time together, knew that Ji Xuanjian was actually concerned about their elimination and the loss of their hard-won treasures.
Therefore, they were all deeply moved.
“Thank you
, Your Highness!” “Your Highness, and Brother Tianming, please be careful!”
Wan Yao, Huangfu Yu, and Xiang Qin all thanked Ji Xuanjian profusely.
Now that their identities were revealed, they no longer needed to pretend to address him as “Brother Ji.”
After expressing their gratitude, the three of them left the battlefield, but they did not choose to abandon Li Tianming and Ji Xuanjian.
Firstly, out of sentiment, they shouldn’t abandon their two benefactors; secondly, rationally, it would be truly dangerous for them to run away. With their strength, encountering most teams would be a life-or-death situation.
Therefore, if they wanted to stay in the Ten Thousand Sects Emperor War for longer, they had no choice but to stay by Li Tianming’s side.
Seeing this, Ji Xuanjing couldn’t help but sneer, “How touching. Could it be that you, little princess, have developed some kind of friendship with someone like this?”
“None of your business! You talk too much!” Ji Xuanjian glared, hands on his hips, and said, “I haven’t settled the score with you for exposing my identity yet.”
“So you were hiding your identity?” Ji Xuanjing feigned surprise, then spread his hands, his expression showing no apology whatsoever. “I thought dressing up as a man was just one of your little quirks. Well, I’m truly sorry.”
“Who are you trying to fool with your pretense? Do you think I don’t know you’re eager to run into me and my team?” Ji Xuanjian was speechless.
“I still don’t understand, Xuanjian, what are you thinking? Which prince or princess doesn’t happily rack up points in their own arranged team? Why are you being special?” The yin-yang robed girl, ‘Tianluo Siye,’ frowned slightly, seemingly concerned.
“What? What makes you think I don’t have any points in this team?” Ji Xuanjian rolled his eyes, then crossed his arms and said, “You guys are all sticking together and acting superior. Only weaklings think of sticking together for warmth, understand?”
“Pfft!” Tianluo Siye covered his mouth and chuckled, glancing at his teammates, all of whom were top geniuses. “Did you hear that? They said we’re weaklings.”
“Then I’d like to see just how strong these so-called strongmen are.” Li Zhu, dressed in black, stepped forward, his eyes bloodthirsty, eager for battle.
“Actually, we’re all from the inner region, so we won’t touch your individual points.” The white-clad youth, ‘Chu Xi,’ seemed to speak righteously, but his tone shifted, and he sneered, “However, your teammates don’t deserve these points. If the news gets out that we didn’t eliminate any participants from the outer region, we’ll be laughed at. So they have to leave, and they can’t leave easily.”
Ji Xuanjian’s face was frosty, and he was about to point at the other party and start cursing when another person quickly chimed in.
“Alright, stop bullying our little princess of the Qianfeng Eternal Empire. It wouldn’t be good if she cried.” Ji Xuanjing stopped the crowd with a stern face, pretending to be a peacemaker, then looked indifferently at Li Tianming and the others. “However, these idle people really shouldn’t be in the final hundred years of the Ten Thousand Sects Emperor War; they should have been eliminated long ago.” Ji Xuanjian
was furious, but also helpless.
Although she was defiant in her words, she knew in her heart that if a fight broke out, she couldn’t guarantee everyone’s safety; the entire team was actually in a dangerous situation.
She had only held back in the previous battle because the situation was still under control; if Li Tianming hadn’t unleashed his power, she would have shown her strength.
Although Ji Xuanjian was now facing Ji Xuanjing, she truly had no confidence in dealing with such a group of geniuses.
Her gaze fell upon Li Tianming beside her, her mind racing: “Even if he joins forces with me, it will be incredibly difficult to defeat these people. Is defeat inevitable…?”
Facing five top geniuses, Ji Xuanjian unconsciously prioritized her own strength, even Li Tianming was a secondary consideration.
This pressure weighed heavily on her small shoulders, making her feel incredibly stifled!
She didn’t necessarily need to achieve any particular result; otherwise, she wouldn’t have chosen a team so hastily in the first place.
But she truly didn’t want to lose to the son of Prince Yuan!
Just as she was feeling somewhat powerless, Ji Xuanjian suddenly felt a large hand press down on her shoulder.
This hand was broad and warm, radiating a reassuring warmth.
“Don’t panic, don’t forget I’m the captain.” Li Tianming’s clear voice, tinged with a hint of a smile, rang in her ear.
This voice was like a warm current flowing into Ji Xuanjian’s previously helpless heart.
Ji Xuanjian turned her head, her eyes filled with disbelief. What she saw was Li Tianming’s composed and smiling profile.
At this moment, Li Tianming silently reached out and shielded Ji Xuanjian’s small figure behind him, facing the super genius Ji Xuanjing directly.
He stared intently into the other’s eyes and said, “You seem to be making my team members unhappy. As their captain, I have a duty to care about their mental and physical well-being. I’ll talk to you from now on.”
“Oh? Heh… You, a mere outsider, want to play the hero at this crucial moment? Too bad, I have nothing to talk about with a wild monkey like you.” Ji Xuanjing’s gaze was cold and disdainful as he sized up Li Tianming.
“Coincidentally, I’m not good with words either.” Li Tianming smiled slightly, then beckoned with his hand, “So, all of you come at me together, I’m in a hurry.”
