Chapter 1337 Gather at the Dragon Head (2/2)
Xu Beiyan was sitting cross-legged on a rock in the center of the crowd. Wearing a calm smile, he modestly responded to the compliments from the many battle zone leaders around.
He also sensed Zhou Yuan’s appearance but he retracted his gaze immediately and acted like he didn’t care.
“Zhou Yuan, here.” Zhou Yuan heard a familiar voice and saw Chi Jing’s short burgundy hair fluttering in the wind as she beckoned to him.
“Senior sister.” Zhou Yuan smiled and quickly hurried over.
“You’re not bad. You actually made it here.” Chi Jing examined Zhou Yuan with a smile, and after seeing that he had sustained no injury, she breathed an inward sigh of relief.
“Senior sister, is everything okay?” Zhou Yuan asked.
Chi Jing flicked her short hair as she said valiantly, “Of course everything is okay. My team occupied two battle zones.”
Zhou Yuan couldn’t help marveling. He could only occupy a battle zone after exhausting his strength, but Chi Jing’s team still had remaining strength to capture another zone. It was clear that her team’s overall strength was much greater than his.
“But Xu Beiyan occupied three battle zones,” Chi Jing whispered.
A light flashed in Zhou Yuan’s eyes, but he wasn’t too surprised because Xu Beiyan was indeed the no. 1 seed on the all-heavens side. Additionally, there were almost ten people at the second Law Domain stage on Xu Beiyan’s team and pseudo Law Domain experts weren’t qualified to join his team. It would be more surprising if that team couldn’t occupy three battle zones.
“What about the Sacred Race's side?”
Chi Jing knitted her slender eyebrows together and her face became solemn. “You should know who the strongest Law Domain expert in the Sacred Race is…He’s called Tai Xuan and he occupied four battle zones this time. From the intelligence we received, the all-heavens teams that encountered him were utterly wiped out in less than half an hour. Not one person survived.”
Zhou Yuan narrowed his eyes. The Scared Race’s strength really shouldn’t be underestimated, particularly, the top sacred heaven pride specially cultivated by the Sacred Race.
The dragon head battle zone would no doubt be fierce and bloody.
While Zhou Yuan and Chi Jing were discussing, Xu Beiyan lightly tapped an ink flute on his palm and a battle zone leader immediately understood his meaning. The battle zone leader looked at Zhou Yuan and said with a smile, “Grand elder Zhou Yuan has such good luck. Did you come across a battle zone that no one competed for? Or…did you just give up the battle zone you were assigned to?”
Those words were a little offensive. Many battle zone leaders around felt that if Zhou Yuan really gave up his battle zone, that would tarnish his reputation.
Zhou Yuan simply shot a glance at the battle zone leader who asked him that question. That guy was obviously part of Xu Beiyan's gang and clearly just wanted to step on him.
“Zhao Jia, don't meddle in other people's business!” A cold light flashed in Chi Jing’s eyes.
The battle zone leader Zhao Jia immediately stiffened and was clearly afraid of Chi Jing.
“Grand elder Chi Jing doesn't need to be so fiercely protective. Zhao Jia only asked that to gather information. Battle zone leaders need to inform us of the enemies they encountered when they arrive so that we can assess the Sacred Race’s strength,” Xu Beiyan said with a smile.
“Also, even if grand elder Zhou Yuan really gave up his battle zone, we can’t blame him. After all, there is indeed a gap in strength. It’s already very good that he made it here.”
“Grand elder Zhou Yuan, what do you think?” He looked at Zhou Yuan with a smile.
Zhou Yuan glanced at Xu Beiyan indifferently without responding, but Su Youwei couldn’t help interrupting coldly, “You don’t need to worry. We were assigned to the 77th battle zone and the enemy we encountered included golden armor Yuan Quan.”
“Golden armor Yuan Quan?” Some people exclaimed. They were very familiar with the name that was listed in the top ten in the Sacred Race’s Law Domain stage.
”You encountered Yuan Quan? No wonder...it’s understandable that you abandoned the battle zone.” A battle zone leader sighed. He also would flee, let alone Zhou Yuan's team.
Su Youwei calmly explained, “You guys misunderstood. We didn’t abandon the battle zone. On the contrary, we occupied all the anchor points in the 77th battle zone. As for golden armor Yuan Quan…His Highness has already killed him.”
Her clear and sweet voice echoed throughout the mountains, making many battle zone leaders fall silent.
