No one knew if there was any deal between Kang Shin-mu and the Demon God Clan.
But no matter what, the result was already out.
On the 16 arenas, almost every clan had at least one person occupying it. Of course, there were two clans, including the Star God Clan and the Sea God Clan, that no one could occupy an arena.
A total of eight clans' genius practitioners occupied all 16 arenas.
This made the supreme experts of the Star God Clan and the Sea God Clan almost die of anger.
However, the supreme experts were all experienced and knowledgeable, and they would not lose their composure because of such a small matter. And for the supreme experts, the most important event was the next three days of the Dragon Emperor Tutor's arena battles.
Therefore, losing the current battle was not too bad. As long as they could get some results, it would be fine.
No one from the Star God Clan and the Sea God Clan could stand on the arena, but the Dragon God Clan unexpectedly had six geniuses occupying an arena.
Among them were Kang Shin-mu, Xiao Bai, Ran Ran, Liang Xiao, Xiao Yuhua, and Gu Litian from the Hidden Dragon Clan.
Logically speaking, before this arena battle reached the end, no one had expected such a situation.
Didn't the Dragon God Clan only have the Dragon Martial Artists from the Dragon Martial Continent participating?
How could there be so many powerful geniuses?
In the area of the fourth level of the Emperor Stage, there were six of them standing on the arena, and almost every one of them had consecutively defeated four or five opponents from other clans!
This meant that the Dragon God Clan occupied six arenas, and the remaining ten arenas were occupied by the other seven clans.
The Demon God Clan had two arenas for their people, the Ancient Phoenix Clan had two arenas for them, and the Demon God Clan had two arenas for their people. As for the other four clans, they only had one arena for their people.
After the results were out, all the practitioners present were whispering. Some could not believe such a result.
The Dragon God Clan had such a powerful force in the Dragon Martial Continent?
The Dragon Martial Artists of the Dragon Martial Continent who knew about all this also felt that it was a little unbelievable, because all six Dragon Martial Artists actually belonged to the faction of Emperor Xi's Dragon Martial Academy!
Even Gu Litian from the Secluded Dragon Family belonged to the Five Extremes Dark Ice Holy Land and had come down from there.
In a sense, Gu Litian was also from the Martial Dragon Continent. That was why he could participate in this battle.
Gu Litian was currently at the fourth layer of the Martial Emperor realm. He wasn't related to the Gu Family of the Five Extremes Mysterious Ice City. He was a descendant of the hidden Gu Family of the Martial Dragon Continent. Within the Five Extremes Mysterious Ice Holy Land, he was one of the more famous explorers of the unparalleled ruins.
Before the top 16 were decided, everyone still had to rest for two hours.
Hence, the powerhouses standing in the arena all retreated to their respective spectator stands.
Gu Litian took this opportunity to fly over to Kang Shin-mu. He had transformed into the form of a Thunder Divine Dragon and arrived before Kang Shin-mu. His pair of divine dragon eyes were somewhat provocative as he said, "Kang Shin-mu, your strength is indeed not bad."
It could be seen that Gu Litian had some enmity towards Kang Shin-mu. However, Kang Shin-mu did not know why.
"You are not bad yourself."
Kang Shin-mu habitually replied politely.
"See you at the final battle."
After Gu Litian said this, he flew away and did not return with Kang Shin-mu.
At this time, Liang Xiao, Ran Ran, and the other two came to Kang Shin-mu's side.
"Who is that fellow?
He looks very arrogant. "
Liang Xiao looked at Gu Litian's back view and was obviously a little unhappy with that fellow.
"I don't know. He is a member of the reclusive Gu Family. However, he has recently been groomed in the Five Extremes Mysterious Ice Holy Land."
Kang Shin-mu was also puzzled. He did not know how he had offended Gu Litian.
Soon, the five of them returned to the spectator stands. Emperor Xi's mystical dragon came to receive them and nodded at Gu Litian.
After Emperor Xi's mystical dragon's explanation, Kang Shin-mu and the others quickly understood what kind of identity Gu Litian had.
Gu Litian had a special identity in the Five Extremes Mysterious Ice Holy Land. He was a Supreme Relic Explorer. He had explored three basic relic sites and had gained a lot from each of them. Most importantly, he was at the fourth level of the Emperor-class. His strength was considered rather strong and was almost at the peak of the fourth level.
Those three basic relic sites had allowed him to gain many good items and spoils of war. Hence, he had a good status in the Five Extremes Mysterious Ice Holy Land. Even Emperor Xi's mystical dragon thought highly of him.
Of course, Gu Litian was too arrogant. Emperor Xi's mystical dragon did not like him very much.
Gu Litian had obtained many things from the three basic relic sites. Although he had not obtained a Heaven and Earth Sacred Grade item, he had obtained many materials that could be transformed into Dragon Weapons. He had also obtained some special cultivation resources.
It was a pity that even though he had explored three basic relic sites, he could not compare to Kang Shin-mu, who had only explored one basic relic site and obtained a Heaven and Earth Sacred Grade item.
This time, Gu Litian happened to be recuperating from his injuries. After coming out from the basic relic site, his injuries were not light. He had gained some insights and had been in seclusion until recently.
In the end, he found out that someone had obtained a Heaven and Earth Sacred Grade item with nine layers of inscriptions from the basic relic site!
This made him very angry. He thought that if he had gone, he would definitely have been able to obtain this Heaven and Earth Sacred Grade item with nine layers of inscriptions, right?
Wouldn't there be no need for Kang Shin-mu then?
Of course, he had heard that the Evil Prince had also appeared during the exploration of the basic relic site. Such a person made him rather fearful. However, he did not think that he was not a match for the Evil Prince. After all, exploring basic relic sites did not only require hard power. Many times, soft power was the deciding factor, including strategy, reasoning ability, and so on.
Hence, he was jealous of Kang Shin-mu. Although he did not say it explicitly, everyone knew what Gu Litian was thinking.
During this period of seclusion, he had improved quite a bit. His strength at the fourth stage of the Martial Emperor Tier had increased by another level. This also allowed him to become one of the 16 people who had defended the arena in the end. It was obvious that he had extraordinary combat ability.
Of course, Gu Litian was not considered a member of Emperor Xi's mystical dragon in the Five Extremes Mysterious Ice Holy Land. Emperor Xi's mystical dragon had only hinted to him out of concern for the younger generation.
However, Gu Litian had actually ignored Emperor Xi's mystical dragon … This was a little too arrogant.
Regardless of whether he was a member of Emperor Xi's mystical dragon, Emperor Xi's mystical dragon was a senior in the Five Extremes Mysterious Ice Holy Land. Gu Litian's actions were indeed a little arrogant. It was no wonder that Emperor Xi didn't like him.
