Against The Sky Supreme

Dantai Xuanzhong looked down at the disciples and said, “As everyone knows, six months ago, our sect's Dan, Formation, Artifact, and Talismans disciples competed with the disciples of the Divine Soul Celestial Palace and the Eternal Immortal Sect through the Grand Competition of the Four Techniques to determine the quota for entering the Eternal Land trial.”

“Although the Abyss of the Buried Gods is filled with unknown temptations, this sovereign has decided to forgo the Grand Competition of the Four Techniques for the safety of everyone.”

With that, the disciples rose to their feet with tears in their eyes under Dantai Xuanzhong's command.

“This means that for this Eternal Land trial, our sect only has one hundred quotas, while each palace and sect has a total of five thousand nine hundred quotas.”

“With the enemy strong and us weak, I don’t wish for my sect's one hundred disciples to go to their deaths, but this is the rule set by our sect’s ancestor master. Regrettably, our sect still has to send one hundred people to battle and participate in the trial in the Eternal Land.”

Upon hearing this, the hundreds of thousands of Inner Sect disciples on the summit stirred, with the nine great chiefs of the Inner Sect exchanging glances.

At this moment, Dantai Xuanzhong continued, “The Nine Meridians Grand Competition will proceed as usual, and the Crouching Dragon Rankings will also be held as usual. However, the hundred disciples participating in the trial must volunteer.”

“You must think clearly; those who participate face a nine out of ten chance of death.”

Hearing this, the atmosphere on the summit became extremely oppressive, and the disciples fell into silence, knowing the gravity of life and death.

“Sovereign, Danmai disciple Nangong Ruxue requests to participate!” At this moment, Nangong Yuxue, who had entered the ninth layer of the fetal soul realm, stepped forward from the Danmai disciples. “Sovereign, do not worry. Although the saintess of the Divine Soul Celestial Palace is my sister, I will show no mercy to the disciples of the Divine Soul Celestial Palace!”

“Good! This sovereign approves!” Dantai Xuanzhong's gaze was approving. It was most suitable for Nangong Yuxue to participate in the trial; the disciples of the Eternal Immortal Sect and the Divine Soul Celestial Palace would definitely not make a move against her, considering she was the younger sister of Nangong Yuqin!

“Sovereign, I will participate!”

“I will also participate!”

“Me too…”

With a wave of voices filled with determination, hundreds stepped forward almost simultaneously.

What was moving was that all these disciples were from the Danmai!

Seeing this scene, Shen Wende on the seating area showed an approving expression. In contrast, the other eight chiefs felt a loss of face!

On the summit, the other eight meridians disciples were watching the expressions of their chiefs, and immediately several hundred people spoke in unison, stepping forward with the same determination, “Sovereign, I will participate!”

At this moment, the expressions of the eight chiefs became slightly more pleasant.

After Dantai Xuanzhong raised his hand to signal everyone to quiet down, he remained silent for a moment and said, “How about this, twenty from the Danmai, ten from each of the other meridians. As for who will participate in the trial, let the nine chiefs decide.”

“Understood!” The nine great chiefs received their orders, and after a brief time, they decided on the disciples who would participate in the trial.

“Thud!”

A huge figure in the ninth layer of the fetal soul realm, Big Niu, looked up at Shen Wende on the Jade Tower and knelt down, pleading with his eyes, “Chief Elder, please give me a quota. I want to represent all the disciples of the Spirit Mountain Herb Garden to offer incense for Senior Brother Tan. Please grant my wish!”

At this moment, hundreds of Danmai disciples knelt down in unison, saying, “Please grant it, Chief Elder!”
