Today's first update: Chapter 3405! 1/4!
Upon hearing this, the last trace of wariness in Yang Yao and the others' hearts quietly faded, and they fully adopted an attitude of "the guest follows the host's lead."
Faced with Xu Kun's seemingly reasonable, even quite fair proposal, they naturally suspected no trickery. Yang Yao immediately spoke for the group and readily replied, "Huang Lord, please speak freely. Since we have already stated that we do not wish to reignite hostilities, everything shall be according to your wishes. We will defer entirely to you!"
Looking back on the entire challenge, if judged solely by the results, Yang Yao's side had undoubtedly achieved an overwhelming victory.
From Judgment Angel Yan's victory in the opening battle to Yang Yao ultimately crushing the Twelve Kirin Scions by herself, among the One Hundred and Eight prodigies of the Huang Race, only three remained standing in the arena. Their record was nothing short of brilliant.
Yet the course of this victory had been completely unlike any before it.
As core members of a team who had grown alongside Xu Kun and endured countless life-and-death trials, Yang Yao, Hao Jian, and the others possessed true combat strength that had long far surpassed the general level associated with their current realms.
Across the myriad races of Blue Star, whether among their peers or the older generation of powerhouses, opponents capable of giving them trouble and demanding their full attention had become exceedingly rare. Only the hidden foundation-level existences of each race could stand against them.
But this time, the Huang Race's prodigies had brought them enormous pressure in every battle, from the first fight against Yan all the way to Yang Yao's final appearance. They had been forced to reveal all their trump cards and go all out.
