If Situ Yongcai didn't have any chance from the beginning, perhaps the Situ family wouldn't be as unhappy as they were now.
The problem was that Situ Yongcai even suddenly reversed the situation when he was in a disadvantageous position and even completely controlled the situation for a period of time.
This brought them too much hope. All of them thought that Situ Yongcai would be able to win this competition.
But no one expected that Situ Yongcai would still lose in the end.
Perhaps the greater the expectation, the greater the disappointment. So now that Situ Yongcai had lost, it seemed that they couldn't accept this fact in their hearts.
Seeing Ji Tian standing on the stage in a victorious manner, their mood could be said to have fallen to the lowest point.
"Patriarch, now that Yongcai has been eliminated, the rest can only depend on Yongwen and Cheng Gang," an elder of the Situ family said helplessly.
Originally, they thought that Situ Yongcai would be able to defeat Ji Tian. In this case, not only would their Situ family eliminate the most important person of the Ji family, but at the same time, their Situ family would have three people advance to the top eight, so it was even possible for them to monopolize the top three in the competition.
But now that Ji Tian had defeated Situ Yongcai and eliminated him, they were only left with two people.
And now, the Ji family also had two people advance, so it could be said that they were evenly matched with the Situ family. This time, the Situ family might not be as easy as they had previously thought.
They had seen Ji Tian's strength just now, and they were still very worried about his sword domain.
They weren't sure if Yongwen would be able to handle Ji Tian's sword domain if he encountered him.
If Yongwen was unable to defeat Ji Tian, then not only would the Situ family not be able to monopolize the top three, they might not even be able to get a spot. That was truly going for wool and coming home shorn.
"Right now, we can only rely on them. I only hope that they won't disappoint me!" Situ Yuanxiong said with a gloomy face.
What he was most worried about was that Yongwen would encounter Ji Tian in advance. With their strength, if they met earlier, it would definitely be a difficult battle.
Moreover, their strength was hard to predict, so no matter who it was, there was a possibility that they would be eliminated.
It was fine if Ji Tian was eliminated, but he was afraid that Yongwen would not be able to defeat Ji Tian and be eliminated instead. That would be a huge blow to the Situ family.
Therefore, the last thing he wanted now was to meet the Ji Family in the top eight. No matter how dissatisfied he was with the Ji Family, he only hoped that they could enter the top four smoothly.
As long as they entered the top four, no matter what, the Situ Clan would have a seat in the top three. At that time, it would be the best if they could eliminate Ji Tian in the last place.
"Although we are in the top 8 now, as long as we don't meet the Ji Clan, entering the top 4 shouldn't be a problem.
I just don't know how strong Cheng Gang is. It's hard to say how far he can go! "
"Since he was able to reach this stage, it means that he has his own strength. At the very least, he is not weaker than the Jiang and Chen Families.
Therefore, he still had a chance to advance to the semifinals.
As long as Yongwen and Cheng Gang can advance to the semi-finals, then we'll definitely be in the top three. "
"Now, let's see how lucky they are. They must not encounter the Ji Clan at this critical juncture!"
The elders understood the current situation. They also knew that this was not the time to fight with the Ji Clan. Instead, they had to occupy the spots first.
"Although Ji Tian is our biggest threat, Nangong Jue from the Nangong Family is not weak either. We have to be careful!" An elder said.
"So what? There are four spots in the top four. So what if we include Nangong Jue? We only need two spots!"
"You can't say that. Yongwen and Cheng Gang did not encounter Ji Tian, but Nangong Jue. That's not a good thing, especially with Cheng Gang's strength. If he encounters the two of them, I'm afraid he won't be able to advance to the semifinals!"
"That's why I said that they can only rely on their own luck. Among the eight of them, there are a few who are weaker than Cheng Gang. As long as Cheng Gang is lucky, he should be able to advance to the semifinals!"
Today's grand competition had ended. The elders of the Situ Clan began to analyze the current situation.
Although they were getting closer to the end of the grand competition, they were even more nervous and worried.
This was because the battles were getting more and more difficult.
Moreover, the more they were at this stage, the more they could not afford to make any mistakes.
This was because once they made a mistake, they would not have a chance anymore.
Originally, everything was under their control. Unfortunately, because of Situ Yongcai's defeat, all the advantages that the Situ Clan had previously had were gone.
Therefore, the Situ Clan had to be careful with every step they took.
However, this was only their analysis. After all, they could not control the outcome of the grand competition. Now, it all depended on the luck of the Situ Clan and the Ji Clan.
If Ji Tian and Situ Yongwen were to encounter each other before the grand competition, neither the Situ Clan nor the Ji Clan would think that it was a good thing.
This was because they could all be eliminated. Being eliminated was a small matter, but not being able to enter the top three in the grand competition was a big deal.
The Dead Realm was something that the two clans were determined to win.
If any of them were eliminated before the grand competition, they would regret it for 500 years.
Although there were only seven matches in the grand competition to advance to the top eight, these people were not weak. In particular, a few of the matches had lasted for a long time.
Moreover, these qualified contestants had more or less suffered some injuries in this round. Even if they were not injured, they had consumed a lot of energy. Obviously, it was not fair to continue fighting for the top four at this time.
Therefore, it was impossible for there to be any more matches today. Everyone began to disperse.
When many people left, they kept talking about the seven grand competitions that were held today.
Almost every grand competition could make them talk about it for a long time.
Even the match where Ji Yun gave up the initiative had become a topic of discussion in many people's mouths.
After all, who could participate in the Nine Clan Grand Competition did not want to make a name for themselves here?
In particular, it was already the top eight. It could be said that everyone in the arena dared to give up their lives for a place to advance.
However, Ji Yun gave up so calmly. Nobody knew how regretful this made everyone feel. They could not wait to go up and fight with Guan Zhixin for him.
Unfortunately, they did not have the qualifications or the strength to do so.
However, when everyone thought that tomorrow would be the top eight and the top four, the battles would definitely be more exciting. Everyone gradually disappeared from Gentleman Peak with expectations for tomorrow.
