Xue Hanyang went peacefully.
After the Heavenly Feather Black-Gold Eagle and Azure Sky Azure Dragon Python spawned one after another, many people assumed that, following this sequence, the next exotic beast would be water-attributed.
So many contestants went ahead to wait near Mist Mountain Lake, the largest body of water in the secret realm, hoping to find the exotic beast the moment the announcement appeared.
After the first exotic beast appeared, everyone had thought finding it early made little difference. But after Yue Wen subdued the second, they realized there was a difference after all. If you found the beast early, not only could you attack it, you could even subdue it.
Without question, Yue Wen had changed the meta both times, and the remaining contestants were all following the meta he had pioneered.
What could they do? He just kept winning.
An obscure Northern Sky Independent Cultivator was calling the shots in the Secret Realm Tournament. His achievements drove the other teams mad with envy.
Had the Five Great Immortal Sects achieved such results, perhaps no one would have thought much of it.
But precisely because Yue Wen came from humble origins, those teams that considered themselves far stronger than River City could hardly help entertaining thoughts... Surely we couldn't be worse than the people of Northern Sky?
If I did what he did, could I achieve the same results?
The Six Great Sects Alliance did not make such assumptions. Meng Youjun performed a divination to determine where the next exotic beast would be.
He saw endless purple-black flames, with savage roars ringing out from within them.
"Not water, but fire," Meng Youjun said. "It seems the organizers don't want people to guess the beasts' spawn locations easily."
If it was fire, the most likely location was Cloudflame
