The Snow Empress Was Far Too Overpowered; Elder Xuan Called an Emergency Halt and Sent Her Straight Through

Bei Bei stood in the middle of the crowd, her mind racing.

A chaotic free-for-all, leaving only seven survivors.

It sounds fair, but it's actually completely unfair. Anyone can see that Dai Huabin and his group have long been a unified entity.

Of course, the most important one is Xue Qingyao, who is level 65.

Bei Bei sighed inwardly.

He and Xu Sanshi were originally slated to be Reserve Team members, but now it seems that things have changed.

"Bei Bei, what should we do?" Xu Sanshi leaned closer, his voice very low.

Bei Bei shook her head and didn't answer.

He was looking at Dai Huabin's position.

Dai Huabin and Zhu Lu stood side by side, less than an arm's length apart.

Zhu Lu turned slightly to the side, her right hand hanging naturally at her side, ready to summon her Martial Soul at any moment.

Her positioning perfectly filled the gap to Dai Huabin's right rear. This coordination wasn't something she deliberately staged; it was an instinct formed after countless fights.

To Dai Huabin's left, Wang Dong'er, Xiao Xiao, and Cui Yajie had automatically formed a small triangular formation.

Wang Dong'er was at the very front; having fused with the Soul Bone, she was very confident.

Xiao Xiao stood half a step behind Wang Dong'er, her hands behind her back. She looked petite and quiet, but a closer look revealed that her center of gravity was slightly forward, as if she could release the Three-Life Soul-Suppressing Cauldron at any moment.

Cui Yajie stood on the far side, her long pink hair particularly eye-catching in the sunlight. She wore a half-smile on her face, looking at everyone as if she were sizing up prey.

To Dai Huabin's right, Xue Qingyao stood quietly.

She wore a long white dress and had long white hair; she was so quiet that she didn't seem like someone who had come to fight.

But it was this silence that sent a chill down Bei Bei's spine.

Level 65 Soul Emperor, Ultimate Ice.

Even Ma Xiaotao from the Inner Academy was Ice Seal in one move. How could these Soul Ancestor and Soul Elder at levels 30 or 40 withstand such an attack?

Faced with such immense pressure, Xu Sanshi, Bei Bei, and Jiang Nannan silently stood together.

Bei Bei, Xu Sanshi, and Jiang Nannan are three fifth-grade Soul Ancestor.

Normally, this lineup would be considered the pinnacle of the Outer Academy.

But today, even the three of them combined might not be able to defeat Xue Qingyao alone.

He Caitou stood further away, arms crossed, his dark face filled with conflict.

He was a student in the Soul Tool Department, and his combat ability was not among the top in this group.

But he had no teammates to help him.

As for Huo Yuhao?

Now that he has lost the Ultimate Ice, a level 20+ Soul Grandmaster is simply not qualified to participate in this competition.

On the other side, Ning Tian, Wu Feng, Nanmen Yun'er were also quickly discussing the matter.

Wu Feng's expression was very unpleasant.

With limited cultivation levels, both she and Nanmen Yun'er would likely not survive to the final seven even if they fought with all their might.

However, Dai Huabin's side is short of a support player, and given Dai Huabin's Dai Huabin nature, he already occupies six spots. If Ning Tian were to go, he might be able to get a seventh spot.

"Young Master, you may go now," Wu Feng said decisively.

Nanmen Yun'er nodded in agreement.

"Yes, go to Dai Huabin's side. There are six of them, and none of them are support-type characters. If you go there, you'll make a total of seven, and your Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda will further boost their combat power."

Ning Tian frowned. "Then what about you two?"

Wu Feng shrugged indifferently.

"We weren't even hoping to make the top seven. We just wanted to last a few more rounds; the worst that could happen was we'd get knocked out."

Nanmen Yun'er added:

"Besides, even if the two of us go with you, we'll just be two more level 30+ cannon fodder. It's better for you to go alone and take the support role; that way, your chances of making it into the top seven are the highest."

Ning Tian remained silent for a while.

She wasn't hesitating about whether to go or not, but rather thinking about how to explain things to Wu Feng and Nanmen Yun'er.

After all, the three of them were teammates during their freshman year. Although they were assigned to different classes later, they still had a good relationship. It would be a bit unfair to leave them here.

Wu Feng saw through her thoughts and immediately urged:

"Young Master, go quickly."

If you miss out on a spot because you're worried about us, that would be such a shame. The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda should finally shine!

That was so honest that Ning Tian just smiled.

"Okay. Fengmei, Yun'er, be careful. If it gets too difficult, just admit defeat and don't get hurt."

Wu Feng waved his hand, "Understood."

Nanmen Yun'er smiled at Ning Tian and gave her a push.

Ning Tian turned around and quickly walked towards Dai Huabin.

She stopped behind Dai Huabin and called out, "Huabin!"

Dai Huabin did not turn around, and said:

"Ning Tian, just assist Dong'er, Xiao Xiao, and Yajie."

Ning Tian cursed inwardly.

This person always speaks like this, deciding things in just a few words, leaving no room for discussion.

But she also had to admit that the arrangement was indeed reasonable.

Dai Huabin and Zhu Lu possess Martial Soul Fusion Skill, making their combat power already excessive, so they don't need any assistance. Xue Qingyao, a level 65 Soul Emperor, doesn't need the support of her Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda either.

On the contrary, Wang Dong'er, Xiao Xiao, Cui Yajie, whose cultivation levels were relatively low, were able to make up for many of their shortcomings with the boost from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda.

Wang Dong'er turned to the side and waved to Ning Tian.

"Ning Tian, come quick!"

The girl with long, light blue hair had a hint of eager excitement on her face.

Ning Tian walked over and naturally stood beside Wang Dong'er.

Xiao Xiao smiled at her and whispered, "Ning Tian, welcome."

Cui Yajie didn't say anything polite, but glanced at Ning Tian with her fox-like eyes and a slight smile appeared on her lips.

Seven people, formation complete.

On the viewing platform, Xuan Zi took a bite of a new chicken leg, chewed it twice, and swallowed it.

His seemingly cloudy old eyes swept over the situation on the field.

The thirty-odd core disciples have already basically divided themselves into factions.

Dai Huabin and his group of seven huddled together and occupied the northwest corner of the field.

Bei Bei, Xu Sanshi, and Jiang Nannan formed the second team, standing in the center of the field, slightly to the east.

The remaining twenty-odd trainees were scattered in twos and threes, some had paired up, some were still observing, and a few had already started moving towards the edge of the field... They were planning to run away as soon as the fight started, hoping to stall for as long as possible.

Xuan Zi's attention lingered on Xue Qingyao for a moment.

Level 65 Soul Emperor, Ultimate Ice.

Putting a Soul Emperor in a chaotic brawl with a bunch of Soul Ancestor Soul Elder is like putting a tiger in a chicken coop; the outcome is already decided before the competition even begins.

This won't work.

Xuan Zi put down the chicken leg, wiped his mouth with his greasy fingers, and stood up straight.

"Wait a moment."

Everyone stopped moving.

Xuan Zi's voice was languid, but no one present dared to ignore it.

"That Xue Qingyao."

Snow Empress slightly raised her head and looked towards the viewing platform.

You advance directly.
