Currently, there were only two teams on this road, Cheng Tianhao and Lin Ying. The other teams had yet to arrive.
Cheng Tianhao originally thought that his team was already very fast. Unexpectedly, Lin Ying’s team was not slow either. Unfortunately, although they had arrived first, they could not go on their way immediately. He needed to wait here for ten minutes.
There was a distance between the two. At the same time, they were also blocked by a barrier. It made it impossible for them to fight immediately. Right now, both teams were hoping that the other teams would not be able to reach this level in ten minutes. This way, they would all be much more relaxed.
Unfortunately, none of the five teams this time were simple. Although the other three teams were not as fast as them, they arrived here in ten minutes. When the last team arrived, there were only three minutes left.
However, the last person to arrive had messy hair and sleepy eyes. He looked like a young man who had just woken up, but he was not in a hurry at all. Even if the other teams had already received a certain level of speed enhancement during this period, he did not panic at all.
“Everyone.” The sleepy young man suddenly looked around and spoke loudly. Although there was a barrier between the five teams, it could not stop the sound from spreading. His words were clearly heard by everyone present. “If you’re willing to help me reach the core area on the next path, no matter what the outcome is, I’ll give you a Shadow Comprehension Talisman as compensation!”
As soon as he finished speaking, it immediately attracted everyone’s attention. Especially the many hand guards. Their eyes lit up. They knew very well that the other party’s words were clearly directed at them.
…..
Towards this, the tall and burly Meng Que sneered. “Wei Chen, aren’t your methods a little too clumsy? You want to instigate our hand guards with just a casual pie? Save it.”
Cheng Tianhao and the others also snorted. They did not expect Wei Chen to use such a lousy trick.
However, Wei Chen took out a large number of Shadow Comprehension Talismans in front of everyone. “Look carefully and see if I’m drawing a pancake or not! As long as you help me, I’ll immediately send you a Shadow Comprehension Talisman!”
When everyone clearly saw the many Shadow Comprehension Talismans in Wei Chen’s hand, their pupils constricted at the same time. Even the faces of Cheng Tianhao and the others changed drastically. They did not expect Wei Chen to be able to take out so many Shadow Comprehension Talismans at once!
“How… how could he have so many Shadow Comprehension Talismans!!”
“That’s impossible!”
“Even the Echelon cultivator behind him can’t possibly take out so many Shadow Comprehension Talismans! There’s… there must be something wrong!”
Cheng Tianhao and the others exclaimed.
In fact, behind these five people who were competing for the Echelon, there were Echelon disciples who supported them. This was not only a competition between them, but also a faction battle between the Echelon disciples.
Cheng Tianhao and the others did not expect Wei Chen to actually have such a trick up his sleeve!
After seeing Wei Chen take out the Shadow Comprehension Talisman, the eyes of the many hand guards lit up with a scorching light. Most of the hand guards were tempted. After all, these hand guards were not hired at a high price like Xiao Shi.
The rewards they received were far from the value of a Shadow Comprehension Talisman. The attraction of a Shadow Comprehension Talisman was extremely huge. Many hand guards were tempted at this moment.
“Don’t listen to him! As long as you continue to help me, I’ll also give you a Shadow Comprehension Talisman after this!” The tall Meng Que was a little anxious. He hurriedly said to the hand guards beside him.
Cheng Tianhao and the others immediately comforted the hand guards beside them. Once their guards changed sides at this moment, then all their previous efforts would be wasted!
However, Wei Chen sneered. “Look carefully, who’s the one drawing the pancake! As long as you help me, I’ll immediately give you the Shadow Comprehension Talisman!”
Wei Chen raised the many Shadow Comprehension Talismans in his hand high. He took out four Shadow Comprehension Talismans and handed them to the hand guards beside him in front of everyone. Then, he looked at everyone. “I’ll give the Shadow Comprehension Talisman to whoever helps me!”
His actions, coupled with the excitement and ecstasy of the four hand guards beside him, had attracted others to the limit. This made the eyes of these hand guards glow with excitement. They could all tell that what Wei Chen said was not false. He will really give them the Shadow Comprehension Talisman!
As for Meng Que and the others, no matter how much they promised, it was only after the fact. There were too many unstable factors in it.
This made many of the hand guards think. They had agreed to be the handguard because of their own interests. Now, there were even greater benefits. Even if he betrayed them, it was only right.
Cheng Tianhao and the other three had extremely ugly expressions. They could tell that the hand guards beside them were already tempted.
Wei Chen’s move had really tricked them. However, they did not have a good way to resolve it. After all, they could not immediately take out anything better than the Shadow Comprehension Talisman.
They could only give some promises. But this promise was far inferior to obtaining the Shadow Comprehension Talisman immediately.
At the same time, the barrier around them also dissipated with the passage of time.
Three minutes were up!
Almost as soon as the barrier dissipated, apart from Wei Chen’s four hand guards, the other hand guards beside everyone had turned against each other..
