Primordial Star Scripture

"Are the two of you, by any chance, not the least bit concerned about whether Ye Chen will be eliminated or not?"

"Or is it that you simply don't care that Ye Chen is about to be besieged by hundreds of True Gods from Divine Dragon Mountain, confident that Ye Chen has a way to deal with it?"

Seeing that both Sovereign Xuechen and the Northern Territory King showed no trace of emotion, Qin Yuntian was also startled.

He could not fathom the thoughts of the two Sovereigns.

Unable to guess, Qin Yuntian was unwilling to ponder any further, "Hmph, anyway, the 'Sovereign Order' only restricts Divine Venerables from acting against Ye Chen, not Lower God Kings and True Gods. I've sent these hundreds of True Gods to assassinate Ye Chen, which doesn't violate the 'Sovereign Order' nor the rules of this grand elimination competition."

"I'd like to see if Ye Chen has extraordinary abilities to deal with this!"

After his gaze turned cold, Qin Yuntian continued to focus on the screen.

Inside the First Ancient Battlefield.

Hundreds of True Gods from Divine Dragon Mountain moved en masse through the ancient battlefield terrain, heading toward Ye Chen's location with murderous intent.

Originally, tens of millions of True Gods participating in the assessment were scattered upon being teleported to the First Ancient Battlefield, with only a few True Gods in many areas.

To gather hundreds of people to act together was indeed a remarkable sight.

Along the way, quite a few True Gods saw this overwhelming crowd from Divine Dragon Mountain and were frightened enough to flee hastily.

It's a joke to treat the grand elimination competition lightly!

Once they were besieged by these hundreds of True Gods from Divine Dragon Mountain, they would undoubtedly have no chance to escape and would be directly eliminated.

This, of course, filled them with immense fear!

Only after fleeing far away and realizing that these hundreds of True Gods were not pursuing them, and didn't seem to be after them, did those fleeing True Gods stop, still with lingering fear.

"What's going on?!"

"Isn't it that everyone's position is random after being teleported in, scattering everyone, so how did so many True Gods from Divine Dragon Mountain gather together?"

"With such a murderous drive moving forward, could it be that they are targeting someone?"

These True Gods immediately thought of someone.

They thought of Divine Dragon Mountain's archenemy.

Ye Chen!

"Could it be that these hundreds of True Gods from Divine Dragon Mountain have come together to besiege Ye Chen? They march directly forward; have they discovered Ye Chen's tracks?"

"My god, with hundreds of True Gods acting together, Ye Chen would have no chance of escaping."

"If the hot favorite to win, Ye Chen, is eliminated in the first round of the 'grand elimination competition,' that would truly be earth-shattering!"

With this thought, these True Gods could not contain their curiosity.

Though they didn't dare to follow closely behind the hundreds of True Gods from Divine Dragon Mountain, many kept their distance behind, eager to see if Divine Dragon Mountain's True Gods were really heading to confront Ye Chen.

"Hmm? So many True Gods from Divine Dragon Mountain are acting together?"

"It seems I'm not the only one looking for Ye Chen; Divine Dragon Mountain's people are also searching for him."

"I heard that among the True Gods from Divine Dragon Mountain who came to the assessment this time, there is one who has cultivated a special divine eye technique. It seems they've discovered Ye Chen's whereabouts."

Atop a huge mountain, the hot favorite Tianyu Beiling peered from the peak at Divine Dragon Mountain's group flying in the distance, narrowing his eyes.

Before entering the First Ancient Battlefield, Tianyu Beiling had already thought about eliminating Ye Chen outright.

He certainly would not miss such a spectacle.

"It's a pity I said I would personally take action and kick Ye Chen out of the competition myself."

"Seems like with hundreds of True Gods from Divine Dragon Mountain taking action, there's no need for me to intervene anymore."

With a sneer, Tianyu Beiling took off, following behind the True Gods from Divine Dragon Mountain, moving quickly toward the direction where Ye Chen was located.

Tianyu Beiling had gathered quite a bit of information and surely knew the strength of the True Gods from Divine Dragon Mountain.

Although he considered those hundreds of True Gods insignificant, either in one-on-one or one-vs-many scenarios,

if it were really hundreds of True Gods coming together to besiege him, even he would not dare to claim a certain escape.

Tianyu Beiling was even more convinced that Ye Chen absolutely could not escape!

Tens of millions of miles, millions of miles, tens of thousands of miles...

Getting closer.

The group from Divine Dragon Mountain was drawing nearer to the mountain where Ye Chen was meditating.

At this time, many other martial artists watching the grand elimination competition outside also noticed the unusual situation on the screen.

After all, in other areas, many assessors were moving on their own, either fighting against each other or facing the fierce ancient beasts and demons that had emerged.

Yet there was such a large group, heading straight forward incessantly, which naturally attracted a lot of attention.

And when they saw that all of those flying in front belonged to Divine Dragon Mountain's True Gods and that far ahead of the direction these True Gods from Divine Dragon Mountain were heading was Ye Chen, these viewers of the competition were shocked.

Everyone understood that these people were likely targeting Ye Chen!

"Heavens."

"Ye Chen may be about to be eliminated!"

"Rumors say that Divine Dragon Mountain has a grudge against Ye Chen. I didn't expect that right at the start of the assessment, during the first round of the grand elimination competition, Divine Dragon Mountain would target Ye Chen!"

The martial artists watching the assessment felt their hearts hanging in suspense.

The movement of a True God is incredibly fast.

Let alone those who could participate in the examination of the nine great god academies.

Not long after the outside crowd sensed something was amiss, the hundreds of True Gods from Divine Dragon Mountain had already traversed tens of thousands of miles in the blink of an eye and arrived around the giant mountain where Ye Chen was located.

And just when this group got within a few hundred miles of Ye Chen's surroundings, Ye Chen, who had been meditating, suddenly opened his eyes.

"Hmm, the people from Divine Dragon Mountain really can't sit still, can they?"

Although his eyes were open, Ye Chen's expression remained completely undisturbed, as he looked with interest in the direction of the people coming from Divine Dragon Mountain.

In that instant, hundreds of True Gods from Divine Dragon Mountain had already appeared, completely surrounding Ye Chen.

Originally, the True Gods from Divine Dragon Mountain thought that when Ye Chen realized he was being attacked, he would be scared into fleeing, or at least turn pale with fear.

These people never anticipated that Ye Chen would remain completely unfazed, as if he regarded their encirclement as nothing at all.

However, despite the surprise, the hundreds of True Gods from Divine Dragon Mountain had no intention of letting Ye Chen go.

The leader among them, a Nine Tribulations True God, immediately shouted at Ye Chen, "Ye Chen, you're already aware of our purpose for coming here, aren't you?"

"So don't bother resisting, just obediently let us eliminate you from the competition!"

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

As the leading Nine Tribulations True God was speaking, the other True Gods from Divine Dragon Mountain also released their Divine Power explosively, each of them looking at Ye Chen with a slight sneer.

Clearly, with hundreds of them surrounding Ye Chen, they felt completely confident that eliminating Ye Chen would be a piece of cake.

As the Divine Power of these hundreds of True Gods surged and the leading True God spoke with bluster, Ye Chen, who was sitting cross-legged, shook his head and stood up.

Ye Chen looked at the hundreds of True Gods from Divine Dragon Mountain and said indifferently, "Out of you more than three hundred people, which hundred have the strongest combat power?"

Hm?

What does he mean?

Not only were the hundreds of True Gods from Divine Dragon Mountain confused, but even other True Gods who were observing from afar didn't understand what Ye Chen meant.

Seeing their puzzled looks, Ye Chen laughed and said, "In this grand elimination tournament, each person can only eliminate up to a hundred people before being transported to the next round."

"As much as I would like to eliminate you all, unfortunately, there are only a hundred spots. I certainly have to pick some of the stronger ones among you to kick out!"

Whoosh.

Ye Chen's words made the expressions of the hundreds of True Gods from Divine Dragon Mountain turn dark, looking extremely unpleasant.

They had come to slay Ye Chen expecting to see him begging for mercy, but they didn't expect Ye Chen to be even more arrogant, complaining that there weren't enough elimination spots and that he could only eliminate a hundred of them.

"Has Ye Chen lost his mind?"

"Thinking about eliminating us? It's utterly preposterous!"

The True Gods from Divine Dragon Mountain were seething with rage, wishing they could tear Ye Chen to pieces right then and there!

The other True Gods who were there just for the thrill were simultaneously amused and astonished by Ye Chen's nonchalance.

Had they been in his place, surrounded by hundreds of True Gods, they surely wouldn't have dared to speak so freely, let alone talk about eliminating their opponents.

Wasn't this adding fuel to the fire, infuriating the other side even more?

Up in the void, Tianyu Beiling, who had also come and was hiding, heard Ye Chen's words and let out a cold laugh, "What a big talker!"

"It seems Ye Chen is even more arrogant than I am!"

"I wouldn't dare claim I could choose whom to eliminate among the hundreds of True Gods from Divine Dragon Mountain; he even dares to pick his opponents?"

"I want to see if his skills are as formidable as his boasts!"

At that moment, the leader among the Divine Dragon Mountain's True Gods, the Nine Tribulations True God who had spoken earlier, was deeply provoked by Ye Chen's words.

He didn't want to waste any more words on Ye Chen.

"Attack, and eliminate him right now!"

With a powerful shout, the Nine Tribulations True God burst forth with combat power that seemed to equal that of many Middle God Kings.

The other True Gods from Divine Dragon Mountain who were already eager to strike also unleashed their killing force.

Hundreds of streams of killing force came alive in an instant, blasting towards Ye Chen at the center of the encirclement!

Hundreds of True Gods took action together, with many of them possessing combat power at the levels of Lower God Kings and Middle God Kings. All their combined forces instantly shattered the mountain at the center where Ye Chen was into nothingness.

And the next moment, all that killing force had reached right in front of Ye Chen!

This fearsome killing force would likely have shattered a considerable part of an ordinary Star Continent if it had been in the outside world.

"Ye Chen is finished!"

As the terrifying power of hundreds of killing forces surged toward Ye Chen, many of the onlookers exclaimed in shock.

But the next moment, their voices abruptly stopped.

Their eyes nearly popped out in astonishment!

They saw Ye Chen wave his sleeve, and a myriad of divine lights burst from his body. These rays of divine light instantly blocked all the hundreds of killing forces capable of shattering a Star Continent, even reflecting those powers back at their owners!

Boom! Boom! Boom!

A few True Gods were even unexpectedly blasted tens of thousands of zhang away by the rebounding killing force, nearly being eliminated on the spot!

This turn of events drastically changed the expressions of the hundreds of True Gods from Divine Dragon Mountain!

And what shocked these hundreds of True Gods even more was hearing Ye Chen's indifferent voice continue to speak, "Let's kick out the first one."

"It'll be you!"

The True Gods saw Ye Chen aim at their leading Nine Tribulations True God, Qin Wu, whose combat power could rival a Middle God King, and strike him head-on.

Then, to the astonishment of the True Gods, something unbelievable happened.

Qin Wu, whom many of them looked up to, was suddenly grabbed out of thin air by Ye Chen like a little chick and held in his hand.

Next, with a loud "boom", Qin Wu let out a wretched scream as his body emitted a protective divine light and he was directly eliminated from the competition.

Qin Wu didn't even withstand a single blow before he was kicked out of the First Ancient Battlefield by Ye Chen!

The hundreds of True Gods from Divine Dragon Mountain, along with the other spectators and even Tianyu Beiling, hadn't recovered from their shock at the stunning sight.

Yet Ye Chen's voice continued, "Eliminated, next!"
