“What a cold person.”

Long Chen thought inside.

He stood up and, with the other nineteen, stood in the middle of the hall. It was large enough, and they were thinly spread out.

Long Chen swept his eyes over the other nineteen, and found that they were about the same age as he was. However, from what Lingxi told him, they were all at the initial mastery stage at the Earth Dan Realm except for Long Chen, at the Human Dan Realm. Long Chen had no idea why this was the situation, when he had been at the peak of the Human Dan Realm when he had obtained the qualifications.

“These genius cultivators are all amazing.”

Long Chen sighed ruefully.

Just from their clothing and appearances, Long Chen could not tell which faction these geniuses were from. At this moment, based on Dongfang Xuanxiao’s directions, they were all beginning to stand in pairs.

Long Chen clearly saw Chu Yunxi smirking at him and then standing together with Jin Sheng’en.

Behind Jin Sheng’en was a pair of tall and st.u.r.dy twin brothers, who were probably from the Gold Faction.

Chu Yunxi was from the Green Faction, and after standing with the Gold Faction, he was leaving Long Chen high and dry. There were only 20 people, and soon enough, all were in their groups, forming an orderly line in front of Dongfang Xuanxiao.

Everyone’s eyes were fixed on the hot-headed young man who mentioned to escape death, Long Chen. Chu Yunxi had gone to the Green Faction, leaving Long Chen alone. On the other side, there was also a girl isolated.

“As I was saying, Mengyao really has the worst luck!”

In the Silver Faction, a beautiful woman shook her head. Beside her was an old woman, who looked extremely youthful and rosy cheeks. She was also an expert, and the grand elder of the Silver Faction.

“It’s not like you don’t know Mengyao’s strength. As long as she endures through the first round, she’ll definitely be able to shine in the second round. I just hope that Long Chen won’t pull her down.”

“How could he not?”

The beautiful woman rolled her eyes. “If this kid’s cowardly, he might use the firework signal at the first encounter of danger. That would cause Mengyao to lose the qualification to partic.i.p.ate, and her hard work throughout so many years would only be wasted!”

“Don’t say more. Luck is a huge part of power, and if she can’t succeed because of that, there’s no one she can blame.”

Though they were not speaking very loudly, everyone in the hall heard their words clearly, including Long Chen.

“Pull her down?”

Long Chen had nothing to say when he was being thought of in this manner.

From everyone’s eyes, it was evident that anyone who teamed up with Long Chen would be extremely unlucky in the stage of Divergent Road.

The rule not only tested one’s strength. No matter how powerful one was, a teammate who was like swine meant a huge tragedy.

“Then let’s see who will be the one dragging down the other.” Long Chen’s expression was indifferent, able to withstand the mocking and contempt.

At this moment, Dongfang Xuanxiao’s eyes were trained on Long Chen.

“Go.” He pointed in Yin Mengyao’s direction and spoke.

Long Chen could only carry out this guy’s order dejectedly, walking to the Silver Faction’s Yin Mengyao’s side.

Yin Mengyao had directly gained the qualifications to partic.i.p.ate in the compet.i.tion. She was probably not any weaker than Jin Sheng’en or Chu Yunxi.

When Long Chen had first entered the discussion hall, he saw that there were two females and a male at the Silver Faction. A male and a female had been huddled together, while he had guessed that the other was Yin Mengyao.

Whether it was her appearance or temperament, both were exceptional and very similar to Dongfang Xuanxiao. Her good looks were peerless, and should be around twenty years old, any childish nature like Lingxi’s long gone, and was very lovely.

In terms of her beauty, she was on about the same level as Liu Lan, though her cordialness was rather different from Liu Lan. Though Yin Mengyao could not be said to be cold as ice, her indifference and apathetic temperament made her hard to comprehend.

Long Chen had initially worried that she would chase him away after he approached her, but her expression was the same as Dongfang Xuanxiao, unchanging and unwilling to look at Long Chen. It was as if she was not the one in the same team as him.

Now, ten groups had been perfectly formed. The round of the Divergent Road would leave four teams remaining, before the final battle.

“These two are a match made in heaven.”

Long Chen wondered depressedly.

His gloominess must be contributing to this thoughts, because Dongfang Xuanxiao looked to be around thirty, but his real age must be around forty, making him old enough to be Yin Mengyao’s father.

After the teams had been divided, Dongfang Xuanxiao did not say more and instead, took out firework signals from his cosmos pouch and getting Dongfang Tianyu to hand them down.
