Faced with the Green Bird's question, the more than two hundred heavenly prodigies and Daoist geniuses fell silent. The looks they directed at the Green Bird Envoy grew increasingly suspicious.
To use the teleportation array, they had to pay one-third of their net worth in immortal fruit. This price was not low. After all, not every one of the more than two hundred people present had won a ranking reward in the first five trials.
