The Great Ruler wanted to lie down but was thrown into the Spirit Road.

"Perhaps it's because of the mark?" Wu Ling said.

"You'd better be more careful in the future, and don't let this mark of hatred erode your consciousness," Wen Qingxuan said, her eyes flashing.

Yun Mo frowned. It seemed he would have to go back to his family and ask his father for help. But to get rid of this mark, he would need to be extremely powerful. Could it be that he needed to go to Xiao Yan and Lin Dong?

But with his ant-like strength, how could he possibly go looking for them?

"Phew... Don't worry, I'm fine. This will also help me toughen up. Let's get through the selection process here first."

He let out a long breath, looked at the worried faces of the group, smiled slightly, and held the halberd upside down, heading towards the center.

Seeing that Yun Mo seemed to have his own thoughts, Wen Qingxuan and the other two could only suppress their feelings for the time being and follow him.

……

Another small team encountered Yun Mo and his group of four, but they were smart enough to try to retreat as soon as they saw them, avoiding a direct confrontation.

To those watching from the sidelines, this scene seemed perfectly correct.

"Wow, these guys are really smart. I thought someone else was going to get into trouble again."

"Haha, what good luck! Those four didn't chase after us. If they had started fighting, they probably wouldn't have lasted a single blow."

"It looks like they're heading straight to the center; there are about twenty people there now, aren't there?"

"This selection process is indeed too brutal; dozens of people have already been eliminated."

They were truly horrified by what they saw, and once again concluded that having self-awareness was a blessing.

Some even thanked their former adversaries for injuring them, otherwise, given their own strength, they feared the outcome would have been disastrous.

Even among the most favored children of heaven, there are vastly different differences.

"What do they mean? Why would they run away without even fighting? Aren't the red glow of our level-seven tokens dazzling enough?"

Wu Yingying was stunned. She picked up her crescent blade and was about to rush forward when she saw them turn tail and run away.

"Actually, it's quite normal. Some people do this on purpose, maybe it will make things easier in the end?" Wu Ling thought quickly. When encountering people you're not confident in, this is indeed a viable approach.

"But there's no place to hide in this fighting arena. Everyone's looking for someone to fight, so they can't keep running like this forever. In the end, they'll most likely be surrounded and killed."

"Everyone has their own strategy, but this arena has mechanisms that will change in the end. All thirty-odd people will be born in the center," Wen Qingxuan said calmly.

Wu Ling and Wu Yingying exchanged a glance. They had always believed that Wen Qingxuan must be one of the five great academies to know so much.

"Let's go, let's continue towards the center." Yun Mo didn't mind and led the three of them forward.

After a long while, and after dealing with another group they encountered along the way, they finally reached the central area.

The number of people here has increased, and there are now more than thirty people engaged in fierce combat.

As far as the eye could see, it was a battlefield, with spears and swords flying everywhere, blasting the ground into ruins and leaving traces of soldiers everywhere.

Furthermore, there were several people there whose physical strength had reached the Spirit Wheel Realm, and the aura they exuded made the others tremble with fear.

"Three of them have level seven tokens, and those three should all be stronger than Shi Yi from before." Wu Ling licked his lips, eager to make a move.

"Should we join directly?" Wen Qingxuan's lips curled up slightly, and she unleashed her aura.

Upon seeing this, Wu Yingying smiled charmingly, no longer concealing her imposing manner.

Yun Mo rolled her eyes slightly. The people fighting there could feel the aura of the two of them, so what was there to ask?

He took the initiative, picked up his halberd, and leaped onto a battlefield to forcefully stop the fighting. The oppressive aura he exuded made those around him tremble with fear.

"hehe."

Wen Qingxuan and the other two followed, heading straight for the three people with level seven tokens.

Their entrance drew everyone's attention, as their imposing presence was overwhelming, surpassing that of everyone else present.

The three men's expressions changed when they saw Wen Qingxuan and the others charging straight at them. They swung their weapons to swerve and try to resist the sudden attack.

However, there is indeed a gap in their strength.

Just like Wen Qingxuan's battlefield.

She wore a long, bright red dress adorned with gold armor. Her beautiful face and all-seeing gaze made her look so noble and dazzling.

Her lithe body swayed, and with a wave of her jade hand, the golden spear moved as if it were an extension of her arm, transforming into a golden dragon that swept towards the enemy before her with endless gales.

The man, experiencing the imminent threat of death up close, paled in shock.

He wanted to retreat, but found that the space he was in seemed to have become muddy, a phenomenon caused by being locked in by the will to fight.

Left with no other choice, he could only raise his weapon and charge at it with all his might.

"clang!"

The sound of metal objects clashing echoed outwards, creating a wave of air that swept across the surroundings, causing the ground to crack and dust to fly everywhere.

The man clenched his teeth, his arms trembling, realizing that his strength was on a completely different level from that of the girl.

Wen Qingxuan raised an eyebrow, chuckled, and launched another attack.

Then came the second and third strikes, the clanging sounds echoing incessantly, causing everyone around to move away.

"boom!"

Unable to withstand the attack any longer, the man was sent flying, his arm bones ruptured, and blood spurted out.

"Cough cough."

The man was blasted to the ground. Just as he was about to pick up his weapon to fight back, he discovered that his arm had somehow become powerless.

"laugh!"

Without hesitation, Wen Qingxuan shot out a steel needle that pierced his skull.

"A level seven token, not bad." She smiled slightly and turned to walk towards Wu Yingying.

Those around her could only flee immediately, fearing she would target them. Her imposing presence made them unable to even muster the will to cooperate and resist.

This scene once again drew gasps of amazement from everyone watching.

Some people even looked at the four of them sweeping everything away with admiration and awe.

"..."

"They're too strong. The four of them are far too strong. Those three people with the power of the Spirit Wheel Realm probably won't even be able to escape."

"What are their names?"

"I don't know, but I feel that they are definitely among the top tier of figures in the Spirit Path, or even the most outstanding figures. It's even uncertain whether there is any group that can fight against them."

"Indeed, they haven't even shown their full strength yet. What would it be like if all four of them went all out?"

"Moreover, look at those three elders from the five great academies; they were also attracted by those four."

"From now on, without a doubt, they will be the most core disciples."
