Chapter 433: Battle Royale (1/2)
As they arrived at the arena, they found that the usual arena was nowhere in sight. Instead, a massive platform had been placed in its position.
The platform was raised above the ground with at least ten meters, and next to it were numerous spectator stands.
Looking at this, Xue Wei had a good impression of what they would be facing that day. Not only him, but his friends also had knowing expressions on their faces.
With such a large platform, it was clear that it would not be made so that they would fight each other one on one. With so many people present, that would also waste far too much time.
So what was happening was likely a Battle Royale. They would all be placed on the platform, and only the winners, the ones who remained standing at the end, would be able to leave for the frontlines.
Xue Wei looked at the people around him. Of everyone present, at least ten thousand were Saints, but more than eight thousand of those were Ordinary Saints.
On the Demon Phoenix Continent, it was not hard to be promoted, especially not for the beasts. They had long lifespans, but their biggest disadvantage was their age.
A Primordial and Sovereign Beast needed to be thirty years of age before they could cultivate. This meant that they were still in their youth at the age of fifty, while humans had much shorter lifespans.
When Xue Wei looked around the Saints that were present in the Army Camp, he only found a handful who were humans; the rest were all Primordial Beasts or Vermilion Birds.
In Xue Wei's group, age was not something they spoke much about. Xue Wei was undoubtedly the youngest of them all, but even so, he was the one they listened to.
Bai Tianyi was more than ten thousand years old, and so was Luoluo. While she had not regained all her memories, her age was not to be doubted.
Hei Gou was around fifteen years older than Xue Wei, and Lin Xiao was the second youngest, only about eight years older than him.
And when speaking about Lan, Xue Wei dared not even guess how old that monster was. He was a deity, not someone that could be judged by usual standards.
Not to mention, from what that Hui Yue had said, Lan came from another world, another place far far away. It was not a trip one took for fun.
So, when looking at all these experts that were standing around the platform, Xue Wei could not help but rub his nose embarrassedly. Were they using their seniority to bully the youngsters?
