The group's words resonated deeply.
In the brief moment that Bai Wuya was slightly taken aback, Ji Zhenyi had already stepped forward.
Today, she had a cold face and an unusually resolute demeanor, a stark contrast to her usual gentle and caring nature towards Lin Zhiruo. She seemed like a completely different person.
As the Primordial Holy Heaven encountered such a great calamity, she spoke slowly in a soft, husky voice.
"Dean, we are all ready."
"This time, I will absolutely not leave Primordial again."
Even though she hadn't intentionally distanced herself from Primordial, but was trapped in the secret realm and unable to escape, upon returning and learning of the immense suffering Primordial Holy Heaven had endured, the increasingly difficult times of the past few centuries, and the constant suppression of the Primordial Academy's students...
Ji Zhenyi found it hard not to take responsibility upon herself.
She was inherently a kind and gentle person.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have pretended to be deaf and dumb and taken care of Lin Zhiruo he knew she was the key to the secret realm.
Now, she doesn't want to back out anymore.
I don't want to run away from it.
In the Primordial, that was her home.
Among the remaining holy masters here, there are several like her who have received boundless kindness from Bai Wuya and have stayed in the Primordial Holy Heaven for hundreds or thousands of years.
They had long considered this place their home.
What talk of backing down?
Besides, even if they did leave, where could they go?
Should we leave the Saint Heaven Realm?
She refused!
After taking a slow, deep breath, Ji Zhenyi's eyes became very serious.
This time, she was prepared to live and die alongside the Primordial Holy Heaven, and she believed the others were the same.
"I will burn my own lifespan," Ji Zhenyi said softly. "In this way, I can also reach the Saint Realm in a short time, and be considered half a usable combatant. Dean, I, we, will all guard the Primordial with you!"
"That's right."
Not far behind, Wan Renshan, who had long been unable to suppress his emotions, also slowly spoke.
This time, he didn't appear in that disheveled state again.
Instead, he tidied himself up, dressed in black, with a cold and stern expression. Anyone who saw his chiseled eyebrows and eyes couldn't help but be a little stunned.
At this moment, he was the same person as the leader of the Ten Saints that Lin Xuan had first seen.
He stepped forward, his aura blazing fiercely, like an inextinguishable flame, attracting the attention of many.
But Wan Renshan didn't care.
He just stubbornly spoke.
"Dean, to ask us to live in ignominy and retreat would go against my principles, and I cannot comply."
"We, the Ten Saints, have appeared here today prepared to die, and I..."
"I am the leader of the Ten Saints. Even though I am not the strongest among the students now, as one of the Ten Saints, I will never shirk my responsibilities!"
"I, Wan Renshan, will fight to the last breath."
The other Ten Saints looked at Wan Renshan's back. Even Shentu Feng, who had always been jealous of Wan Renshan, had no negative emotions in his eyes at this moment. All he had was a strong fighting spirit.
No one left.
Not a single person wavered.
Meanwhile, not far from Bai Wuya, the members of the Primordial Academy, led by Lin Xuan, waited quietly on the other side of the great formation.
The two, Vast Sea Saint King and Lin Xuan, who were standing at the front, did not participate in this declaration of determination. They simply looked at the outside of the formation with slightly cold eyes, looking at the almost overwhelming enemy outside the formation.
With a cold eye, the Vast Sea Saint King spoke calmly.
"It seems that all nine Holy Heaven have arrived. This is quite a grand display."
His strength, along with Lin Xuan's, could be considered the strongest among those present.
It's obvious that, on the surface, only the three great Holy Heaven are out there, but in secret, all the other Holy Heaven are also prepared to get a share of the spoils, sending out their own powerful figures, though they haven't shown themselves.
After all, one can conceal one's physical form, but one's aura cannot be completely hidden in the face of absolute power.
He could easily tell that there were at least a dozen Saint Realm auras outside.
Such a force would be impossible for even the current Primordial Holy Heaven to withstand, let alone several more Holy Heaven combined.
Even at its peak, the Vast Sea Saint Dynasty only possessed a dozen or so Saint Realm. Now, the nine Holy Heaven besieging the Primordial Holy Heaven is indeed a grand spectacle.
It certainly showed enough respect to the Primordial Holy Heaven.
but...
It's just Saint Realm.
The Vast Sea Saint King had a cold gaze, showing no sign of pressure despite the grand scene outside.
Currently, his cultivation level has not yet fully recovered to that of Great Saint.
However, for top-tier geniuses like them, realm is often not linked to strength.
Both he and Lin Xuan now possess strength comparable to that of Great Saint Sage. Even if those hidden Saint Realm were to attack together, as long as the two of them were here, they would be able to suppress them!
Absolutely no problems will occur!
Lin Xuan thought the same thing.
Even setting aside the fact that there are only a dozen or twenty Saint Realm beings who have descended upon the Primordial Holy Heaven Saint Realm now, what difference would it make if there were a few more?
He still has a Great Saint Summoning Card issued by the system.
What we're seeing now is nothing more than a trivial matter.
In other words, Bai Wuya was unwilling to listen to his explanation, and he also knew that no matter how he explained, Bai Wuya would never believe him.
Just like the previous Ten Institutes Grand Competition.
Even though Bai Wuya verbally expressed his belief, he remained skeptical until the very last moment.
Only by proving ourselves with strength can we solve all problems.
Behind Lin Xuan, Duan Nianwei's eyes held hesitation.
It wasn't that she hesitated about her stance.
It was simply because what Qu Youmeng had just said to her had struck her as somewhat unbelievable.
With so many Saint Realm outside, can Master and the Supreme Elder really manage...?
Don't worry.
Yunyi's calm voice came through.
As early as when the Primordial Holy Heaven opened the great formation, all the students who were still in seclusion were forced to come out of seclusion and gather in the great formation to receive its protection.
She was no exception.
She wasn't even holding a pipa in her arms anymore; she was dressed in a bright, pale yellow dress, her hands hanging down as she gazed outside the formation, her composure unmatched by any of the other students.
Duan Nianwei only heard her say, "Master's strength is beyond our imagination, Junior Sister Duan. You came late, but it's not too late to understand this now."
That is...
"Whether it's possible or not, our master's power cannot be deduced using common sense."
"No matter when or what, even if disaster strikes, we don't need to panic. As long as we trust our Master, that's enough."
