Yuyang Training Ground was so quiet that even the falling leaves could be heard.
Vishnu Tien's defeat had caused a great shock. The fifth Immortal Emperor of the Crimson Flame World had died on the platform as soon as he appeared. It was really hard to accept.
This scene had the greatest impact on Zhu Rong.
When the battle started, he led nine helpers onto the platform with great confidence and was ready to win in one fell swoop. However, the nine helpers were eliminated one after another. Even Reverend Hei was not spared.
The reason for all this was Qin Hao and the other two. They had stopped the Zhu Clan and shattered Zhu Rong's dream.
Ironically, Qin Hao and the other two were blasted out of the Bluesun Tower by Zhu Rong. They were supposed to fight for the Zhu Clan.
Did he regret it?
Of course, Zhu Rong regretted it. However, what was the use of regret now? He had no hope of winning. At this moment, Vishnu Tien stepped forward bravely and unleashed his Immortal Emperor cultivation base, shocking everyone.
He told Zhu Rong that he would create a miracle for the Zhu Clan. Zhu Rong's judgment had never been wrong.
One could imagine how emotional Zhu Rong was when he saw the light of hope again from the Thunder Seigneur after his dream was shattered. He was so moved that tears streamed down his face.
However, why was the result so cruel? Vishnu Tien, who had stepped into the Immortal Emperor realm, was no match for a mere Immortal Emperor like Qin Hao. He died on the platform and his Dao vanished.

Miracle?
Where did miracles come from? Zhu Rong did not expect a miracle. Instead, Vishnu Tien created a pile of black dregs.
"Why? Why did the heavens tease me like this? Why did they give me hope only to make me taste deeper despair?"
Zhu Rong was howling happily just a moment ago, but in the next second, he was dispirited and lost his will. The drop in his mood almost made him collapse.
The Zhu Clan Leader fell back into his chair as if he had lost his soul. His eyes were empty.
"Cultivator, aren't you being too vicious?"
Emperor Kua glanced at Qin Hao. Celestial Emperors were extremely precious. The Crimson Flame Realm had finally seen the fifth cultivator step into the Celestial Emperor Plane, and Qin Hao had killed Vishnu Tien while he was still in the cradle.
"I'm vicious?"
Qin Hao laughed coldly and said, "Put yourself in my shoes, Emperor Kua. If you were the Celestial Lord and were asked to fight Vishnu Tien, would you have held back and shown him mercy?"
Vicious?
The world of cultivation had always been cruel.
If Qin Hao wasn't strong enough, what would Vishnu Tien do to him?
Crippling one's cultivation and turning one into a cripple, living in the shadows for the rest of one's life, enduring the ridicule and ridicule of the world. That was even more painful than death.
Emperor Kua was high and mighty, looking down on all living beings. It was easy for him to say that. After all, no one in the Crimson Flame Realm could threaten him other than the Crimson Flame Emperor.
Of course, it was understandable that Emperor Kua couldn't bear to see Vishnu Tien die.
"Sigh."
Emperor Kua sighed deeply. As the supervising Celestial Lord, he had to uphold justice. Asking Qin Hao to show mercy to Lord Thunder was indeed a bit of a stretch. After all, it was a battle between a Celestial Lord and a Celestial Lord.
"Let's continue."
After a sigh, Emperor Kua sat back down.
Qin Hao won this battle, and it was a magnificent victory.
He killed a Celestial Lord, which was far more terrifying than Little Nine scaring Lord Hei away.
However, after this battle, Emperor Kua lost a great deal of interest in the competition. In his opinion, the appearance of a Celestial Lord was far more significant than the competition between the four clans.
"The Workers give up the competition for the lode."
"The Wing Clan also gives up the competition for the lode."
Gong Gong and Wing River, the two leaders of the Workers' camp and the Wing Clan's camp, spoke at the same time.
Even someone as strong as Vishnu Tien was defeated by Qin Hao. Now, no one could stop the Li Clan in a one-on-one battle.
They gave up the first round of competition, which was different from giving up directly.
Giving up directly meant elimination.
And the spoils of the first round of competition were the lode around Yuyang City.
Giving up the first round did not mean elimination. The Workers and the Wing Clan only gave up the lode, but they could continue to participate in the final battle of the second round.
In the second round, the position of commander and deputy commander would be determined from which clan would be chosen.
After Zhu Rong heard this, he shook his head and sneered. Gong Gong and Wing River gave up the lode, which meant that they were prepared to give it their all and use all their strength in the second round. The two clans would probably join forces to fight against Li Fen.
After all, Qin Hao was now unstoppable. It was better to gather everyone's strength and eliminate the Li Clan together. Perhaps only then could they defeat Qin Hao and the other two powerful cultivators.
This strategy was very correct. An hour ago, Zhu Rong would have given up the lode without hesitation. But now, he was no longer qualified. Whether it was the first round or the second round, he had lost completely.
"Alright," Emperor Kua said.
He looked at the VIP seats of the four clans. Seeing that the four clan leaders had no objections, Emperor Kua announced, "In the competition for the Yuyang Lode, the Li Clan is first and will take 40% of the total. The Workers will take 30%, the Wing Clan will take 20%, and the Zhu Clan will take the last 10%."
Even though the Workers and the Wing Clan gave up the first round of competition, the rules could not be broken. They had to give what they should give. It was impossible to give all the lode to the Li Clan. Otherwise, the other three clans would not be able to survive.
From the number of participants, there were five from the Workers, four from the Wing Clan, and only Zhu Rong from the Zhu Clan. So, the ranking was based on the number of participants.
"Hahaha, Brother Qin, Brother Ye, Brother Jiu, thank you very much," Li Fen stood up and bowed. His attitude was very humble.
Qin Hao and the other two looked calm and did not say anything. It was as if everything was normal.
"If we win the second round, the position of deputy commander will belong to Brother Qin.
As for Brother Ye and Brother Jiu, I will not mistreat you. When the Emperor gives the order for me to take over the Red Flame Battalion, I will appoint two officers. Brother Ye and Brother Jiu will be officers of the Red Flame Battalion. You will be on the same level as me and Brother Qin, "Li Fen said generously. It was as if he already had the position of chief commander.
"As long as I follow our boss, it doesn't matter where I am." Little Jiu did not care about being in the army.
"But Young Master Li Fen, it may not be easy to fight again," Ye Shuihan said. He looked at Gong Gong and Wing River.
At this time, the people of the two clans consciously mixed into one team. It was obvious that they were going to work together.
"Yes, but I have full confidence in the abilities of the three of you.
And I will also participate in this battle and fight the enemy side by side with you. "Li Fen's eyes burned with fighting spirit. Wisps of fire Qi swirled around his body.
He was also a peak Immortal Venerable. He was confident that his strength was not weaker than Revered Hei.
Of course, Li Fen would not underestimate Gong Gong and Wing River. As the four young masters of the four clans, they knew each other very well.
"Let's get ready," Qin Hao said softly. The four of them moved towards the center of the platform.
On the opposite side, the people of the Gong Clan and the Winged Clan had gathered. The nine peak Immortal Venerables stood side by side.
"Zhu Rong, will you work with us?" At this time, Wing River shouted at Zhu Rong who was about to leave the stage.
Zhu Rong couldn't help but halt his footsteps.
"If you help us defeat Li Fen, the Gong Clan and the Winged Clan will each give ten percent of their mineral veins to the Zhu Clan. This way, the Zhu Clan will get thirty percent of the total amount every year. Your cultivation base will not fall because of the lack of resources," Wing River said.
"But we can't give up the position of Commander and Vice Commander of the Red Flame Camp."
Gong Gong said solemnly. Not only the position of Commander, they would also not let any member of the Zhu Clan take over the other small positions.
This force must be firmly grasped by the Zhu Clan.
"Alright."
Zhu Rong hesitated for a second. Then, he turned around and strode into the camp of the Gong Clan and the Winged Clan. He came to the side of Gong Gong and Wing River.
After all, Zhu Rong's strength was not ordinary. He was not weaker than Gong Gong and Wing River. The more combat strength he had, the higher the chance of defeating Qin Hao.
After all, Qin Hao was too strong. Gong Gong and Wing River didn't dare to be careless when facing an enemy who had defeated an Immortal Emperor.
Zhu Rong didn't have a choice. He had lost the position of Commander. If he only got ten percent of the mineral veins, he would be punished by the elders of his clan when he returned. Even his father wouldn't be able to protect him. If his position as the Young Patriarch was abolished because of this, Zhu Rong's future would be even more difficult.
Getting thirty percent of the mineral veins' income for his clan was his only chance to make up for his mistake.
