As soon as Xiao Chen finished speaking, more than half of the tribe's warriors were eliminated. Everyone's eyes were filled with frustration. At this moment, there were less than two hundred warriors left in the middle of the hall. Apart from a few people, the rest were mostly in the middle stage of the Tempered Bone Realm.
Under Xiao Chen's powerful Soul Perception, the hundreds of warriors in front of him could be said to have nowhere to hide. It could be said that no one could escape his Soul Perception. Xiao Chen looked at the few warriors whose bodies were trembling violently but still stood firmly in the crowd. They did not have the slightest intention of withdrawing.
"Xiao Wangkun, step forward!
Your youngest son is not even a month old yet. There are still several relatives in the family that you need to support. Also, there are these warriors in the early stage of the Tempered Bone Realm. "
In a moment, Xiao Chen pointed out the few warriors in the crowd, especially Xiao Wangkun. He was a relative of Xiao Chen and was of the same generation as Xiao Chen. However, his age was twice that of Xiao Chen. His ancestors were all staunch supporters of Xiao Chen's branch.
After being pointed out by Xiao Chen, the rest of the people walked out with unwillingness. Only Xiao Wangkun, after hearing Xiao Chen's harsh words, his sturdy body trembled violently. A hint of struggle flashed in his eyes, but he regained clarity in a moment.
He actually ignored Xiao Chen's order and stood firmly in place.
"Xiao Wangkun, what are you doing? Get out here!" Third Elder Xiao Qin immediately reprimanded loudly, afraid that Xiao Wangkun would provoke Xiao Chen.
Seeing that Xiao Wangkun did not move and dared to ignore the Clan Leader's authority in public, Third Elder Xiao Qin was afraid that he would provoke Xiao Chen. Only then did he not care about being rude and hurriedly stood out.
Looking at the enraged Third Elder and the calm green figure in front of him, Xiao Wangkun's eyes flashed with determination once again. He then walked out of the line and came to a foot in front of Xiao Chen before prostrating himself on the ground.
"Xiao Wangkun's family has been greatly indebted to the Clan Leader for generations. My life was even saved by the previous Clan Leader from a fierce beast. Now that the Ancient Yuan Tribe is in trouble, the Clan Leader has a heavy burden on his shoulders. What is pitiful is that Xiao Wangkun's strength is low and he can only helplessly watch his fellow clansmen being bullied by other clans.
Hearing Xiao Wangkun's cries, the originally enraged Third Elder Xiao Qin could not help but slow down. All the warriors in the entire stone tower lowered their heads.
"As a man, I have lived in vain for 40 years in the Great Wilderness. Today, I have an epiphany. I can only rely on my hot blood to dye the land of the Ancient Yuan Tribe and protect my tribe. Even if I have to climb mountains of blades and perish in the Great Wilderness, I don't want to be a coward for the rest of my life.
Boom!
As soon as Xiao Wangkun finished speaking, the warriors who had been excluded from the group suddenly knelt on the ground. A majestic aura suddenly erupted from them.
"Clan Leader, please. We do not want to be cowards for the rest of our lives!"
Stimulating one's potential was like sucking out one's marrow and pulling out one's blood. It was so painful that one wished they were dead. If they were not careful, they would become crippled. If they were not careful, their bodies would explode and they would die. These warriors clearly knew that there would be a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood in front of them, but they were still fearless.
Looking at the warriors kneeling on the ground in front of him, Xiao Chen took a deep breath and slowly exhaled. There was a surge of hot blood slowly awakening in his heart. Unknowingly, the soul that was originally sleeping in the hustle and bustle of the metropolis and drowned in the intoxication of gold and paper was awakened.
They had to fight!
Fight!
Only by defeating the enemy could the tribe survive. Only then could the inheritance be passed on.
"If you don't betray my Gu Yuan Tribe, my Gu Yuan Tribe will not betray you. I, Xiao Chen, will not betray you warriors!"
At this moment, Xiao Chen's slender figure stood straight. He had black hair and thick eyes. His eyes were as bright as stars, and there was a trace of cyan light flashing in the depths of his eyes. He looked solemn. Although he had already withdrawn his Battle Qi, there was still a faint layer of cyan flowing light flowing on his body. As Xiao Chen roared, it slowly faded away.
"Are you all going to disobey the orders of the Lord Patriarch? The Lord Patriarch has his own considerations when it comes to selecting the warriors of the tribe. That is because stimulating one's potential is incomparably dangerous. The stronger you are, the higher your chances of passing the test. The Lord Patriarch is pitying the lives of warriors like you. Do you all still not understand? Are you all going to continue making trouble like this?"
"Back off!"
Under the repeated scoldings of the two tribe elders, the over 200 tribe soldiers who had been eliminated reluctantly stood up and retreated to the side. However, they did not leave the stone tower. Instead, they stood around the stone tower and looked at their comrades in the middle.
However, Xiao Wangliang did not follow them and returned to his original position. He had made up his mind to take a trip to the gates of hell.
Seeing that the excited warriors had finally calmed down, Xiao Chen said, "Ding Shan, listen to my order. Seal the stone tower. Do not allow the tribe to enter."
"Third Elder, let's begin!"
After Ding Shan and Third Elder received their orders and left, Xiao Chen turned his head and once again said to the 200 tribe warriors that had been selected, "This stimulation of potential is extremely dangerous. Only those with a strong will can succeed. Remember that even if the sky falls and the earth shatters, you have to hold on to your original heart. You have to temper your body in the endless destruction and experience a transformation between life and death."
Not long after, Third Elder led a group of tribe members and carried hundreds of wooden buckets over. The wooden buckets were filled with a jade-green medicinal soup. Although the medicinal liquid was incomparably hot, it gave off a chilling aura that seeped deep into one's bones, causing one to shiver.
Without any hesitation, all the warriors jumped into the boiling medicinal buckets.
"Ah!"
In just a short while, several tribe members let out miserable cries. The heart-tearing and bone-splitting pain seeped deep into their bones. Even these tough men who had experienced countless battles and were riddled with scars could not bear it.
Ow ow ow ow ow ow!
The entire stone tower instantly became filled with wails. The poisonous medicinal energy continuously seeped into their bodies, destroying their internal organs. Their bodies were constantly being destroyed and reconstructed, and the functions that were originally hidden in the depths of their divine treasures that were already in a state of suspended animation were constantly being activated.
The poisonous energy turned into sharp knives, continuously slicing at their bodies. The pain that came from the depths of their souls made them wish they were dead. Blood flowed from their seven orifices, and their ears were ringing. Their faces became hideous and terrifying as they roared continuously. They even felt as if their brains were about to split open, and they wanted nothing more than to die immediately.
"Ah, I can't take it anymore!"
Finally, one of the tribe soldiers could not bear it any longer. He suddenly let out a painful howl, and then his entire body suddenly exploded.
After that, it was as if the gates of misfortune had been opened. Twenty to thirty warriors exploded and died one after another. They were all unable to bear the impact of the medicinal energy, and they exploded and died from qi deviation.
This scene caused the faces of Great Elder Tie Wen, Third Elder Xiao Qin, and the others to immediately turn as white as snow. Even the expressions of the two hundred warriors who had not left changed abruptly. In just a short while, these brothers who had been fighting side by side with them had died right in front of their eyes. They were separated by life and death, and this made them grimace.
Just like that, their lives were as short as fireworks, and they only bloomed brilliantly for a moment in the endless wilderness!
