The Peerless Emperor

Lin Qian heard Kuang Zhan's loud shouting and showed an expression of helplessness on his face, "In fact, you didn't need to shout that loudly, they should be arriving soon."

Hearing Lin Qian's words, Kuang Zhan felt a bit embarrassed and scratched the back of his head, chuckling, "Shouting like this lets them know the situation here, so they might come even faster."

Kuang Zhan's rationale left Lin Qian shaking his head helplessly.

Yet, as the other party said, most of the people in the Huaxia Alliance had now gotten used to the current pace. Conquering cities was very easy, and they usually proceeded calmly, clearing the Soul Soldiers and Soul Beasts along the way to collect marks.

As one must know, the marks obtained in the Trial Land could still be exchanged for needed items even if one didn't enter the Sea Spiral Holy Institute after passing the trials.

Therefore, with so many people together, it was easier to slaughter the Soul Soldiers and Soul Beasts, and they didn't miss any opportunity to collect marks.

Lei Jun, who was in front of Lin Qian and Kuang Zhan, couldn't help but wear a mocking smile on his face upon hearing the shout, "Kuang Zhan, have you gone mad? By shouting like that, do you really think you can turn the situation in your favor?"

"Let me tell you straight, it's not just me who has come over. Yan Jiu is also not far from here." Mentioning this, Lei Jun's face bore a mocking smile as he crossed his arms in front of his chest, "Your shout probably called them all over here. I've never seen someone cause so much trouble for themselves like you do."

"Yan Jiu?" Evidently, Lin Qian didn't recognize the name and turned his head towards Kuang Zhan beside him. Since Lei Jun had mentioned him, clearly the opponent knew of this person.

Seeing Lin Qian's inquiring gaze, Kuang Zhan quickly explained, "Your Majesty, this Yan Jiu is the undisputed leader among the trialists from the Bursting Flame Clan this time, a supremely strong young warrior of this generation."

"Moreover, the rumors say his strength is so formidable that even the Prince from Huaqiong Empire who came this time might not be his match. In the Overlord Alliance, he could challenge for the second place."

After knowing Yan Jiu's background, Lin Qian also nodded inwardly.

In the last ranking, the Thunder Clan was the fourth place, and the Bursting Flame Clan was the third place.

Looking at it this way, it seemed the Overlord Alliance had noticed the commotion here and sent these two powerful figures to try and eliminate him.

Lin Qian had not forgotten, as Kuang Zhan had mentioned, that the strategy of the Overlord Alliance was to deal with the threatening figures beforehand and then decide the rankings through internal contests.

He himself was listed as an unstable element, and this time, they had come to remove him.

"It looks like, sending both individuals from the Thunder Clan and the Bursting Flame Clan really shows high regard for me." Standing in the sky, Lin Qian held his hands behind his back, looking unperturbed at Lei Jun in front of him, not at all distressed by the opponent's aggressive approach.

Lei Jun sneered interestingly as he looked at Lin Qian speaking before him, "It seems you're the one who used the Starry Sky Blue Phoenix Clan's slot to enter. Honestly, I can't see what's so special about you."

"Just with you present, capable of fixing Kuang Zhan's bloodline flaw." Saying this, Lei Jun glanced at Kuang Zhan, frowned curiously, and asked, "You didn't just apply some Spiritual Medicine or Spirit Grass juice on your body to turn it that red, did you?"

"Lei Jun, whether it's true or not, why don't you come over and find out?" Kuang Zhan's words caused his eyebrows to twitch, and he smirked, his body's Soul Energy surged like a volcano about to erupt, beckoning towards the opponent.

Not taking Kuang Zhan's provocation seriously, Lei Jun instead spoke in a frivolous tone, "Hey, what's the rush? Wait for your people to come, otherwise, people will accuse me, Lei Jun, of bullying the few with the many and make a laughingstock out of me. Brothers, don't you agree?"

"Ha ha ha, of course, we would never resort to outnumbering the enemy," Lin Qian declared with confidence.

"Moreover, waiting doesn't make a difference. Those from the Fierce Battle Clan could come in any number and it would still be futile, nothing but sheer brute force from buffoons."

"Dealing with the Fierce Hunting Clan is like a breeze, all it takes is a couple of maneuvers like teasing monkeys, and they can no longer keep up."

Behind Lei Jun, the clansmen and followers burst into laughter, their demeanor relaxed.

Clearly, they did not regard Lin Qian and the people from the Fierce Battle Clan seriously, and also dismissed the reinforcements spoken of by others.

Suddenly, in the distant sky, figures ablaze with fierce flames soared through, abruptly arriving and stopping beside those from the Thunder Clan.

The terrifying high temperature instantly spread, the power of thunder and fire made the surrounding air teem with restlessness.

Curiosity shone in Lin Qian's eyes as he looked toward the people arriving behind.

Compared to the Thunder Clan, these newcomers were visibly distinct, belonging to a different race.

Their bodies seemed to be constructed from dark, black stone, resembling humanoid forms, yet appeared extremely sturdy.

Like a structure made of black stone, seamlessly formed as one, yet their surfaces had fine lines and crevices that continuously emitted burning flames, enveloping their bodies.

Without needing the Fierce Battle Clan to mention, Lin Qian already knew that these were the Bursting Flame Clan from the Overlord Alliance that had ranked third in the last Sea Spiral Holy Institute trial.

At the forefront, the emaciated yet powerfully imposing figure was naturally Yan Jiu of the Bursting Flame Clan, whose real strength ranked second in this Overlord Alliance encounter.

"How come, originally when we thought to come here, we would only be cleaning up the aftermath, but you, Thunder Clan, haven't made your move yet?" Yan Jiu arrived and was visibly surprised as he turned and questioned, his eyes filled with confusion.

Lei Jun shrugged his shoulders, spreading his arms, "The guys from the Fierce Battle Clan are formidable, and they're calling for reinforcements. Since we're idly waiting anyway, let's see how formidable they can get."

"Since you're here too, itching for a fight for so long, coming together for a satisfying battle seems like a good idea," Lei Jun said.

Yan Jiu chuckled lightly at Lei Jun's words, "If that's the case, wouldn't we be ganging up on them? Combined, both our sides have at least a hundred thousand, right?"

"No worries, once their people arrive, it naturally won't be a case of outnumbering them anymore..." Lei Jun had barely finished speaking when sounds of whooshing broke the silence behind Lin Qian and the Fierce Battle Clan members. In an instant, several trialists transformed into the Fierce Battle Clan surged to their side.

"Your Majesty!" The trialists from the Fierce Battle Clan, upon seeing Lin Qian, instantly brightened up, respectfully shouting. They then turned and bellowed, "The Human Emperor Renhuang Martial Emperor is here, hurry up and speed up!"
