The path was teeming with wolf beasts and a variety of other formidable beasts. Yet, the gathering of cultivators was equally impressive, most of whom had reached the pinnacle of the Nascent Soul Stage, with a few radiating even more potent spirit energies.
It was crucial to understand that their attainment to the peak of the Nascent Soul Stage was not similar to the same stage found in the True Life Realm.
These cultivators had battled beasts for years, honing a purer form of spirit energy and accumulating vast experience. If they were to work together, it wouldn’t be hard to break through.
However, all eyes turned to Remus after hearing his suggestion. Everyone looked at Remus as if favonovel.com were a fool.
Work together to break through?
How could they possibly do that?
Even if we charged in together, there would be differences in the front and back, left and right positions. Moreover, the wolves would attack whoever they wanted to attack as a group, definitely not distributing their attacks evenly!
Why should we draw attention to ourselves and take damage while potentially paving the way for others?
Besides, it is an assessment. Although the specific criteria for entering the sacred land has not been announced, everyone is a competitor, and we can not help others!
Remus understood their looks. He continued, “But if we don’t go together, it’s impossible to get through, and we’ll all be eliminated…”
To Remus, if everyone remained here, this standoff would never conclude.
“Then you go. As long as you walk in the front, I will follow you!”
“Yes, as long as you lead the way, I dare to follow, even if it means death!”
“Don’t talk nonsense. If you want to go, just go. Why are you being so babbling?”
Voices rose from the crowd, each carrying a distinct tone.
Some regarded favonovel.com with disdain, others with a hint of amusement, and many more with evident impatience.
To everyone here, Remus was just a late-stage Golden Stage cultivator. If this weren’t an examination, favonovel.com wouldn’t even have the qualifications to stand with them, let alone make suggestions.
Remus frowned but didn’t respond. It was reminiscent of the saying, “Two’s company, three’s a crowd.”
And what about a group of cultivators?
Not only were they unable to collaborate, but they also harbored intentions to undermine each other…
He quickly leaked out his spirit energy and flew into the air.
“Heh, thinking of taking to the skies?”
“Just ignore him!”
“Judging by his age, favonovel.com clearly hasn’t faced enough defeats. Let favonovel.com march to his doom!”
People sneered and withdrew their gaze, no longer paying favonovel.com any attention, focusing on the path ahead.
Remus had no intention of actually attempting to fly over the beasts.
The idea that the assessment would involve only ground-based beasts, without considering aerial threats, seemed implausible. Given the challenging nature of the assessment, it was likely that the aerial beasts posed an even greater threat.
He was just using his spiritual consciousness to survey the area.
The assessment site was very close. He could clearly feel that directly ahead, there was a group of wolves, as well as pythons, mandrills, and other beasts.
Their cultivation levels were not low, and the pythons were probably much stronger than the Black Mamba favonovel.com had encountered before, and the mandrills were much stronger than the mandrills favonovel.com had encountered before.
All the beasts formed a tight circle around the assessment venue. Besides, other cultivators trying to enter the sacred land from different directions faced the same situation. They were all gathered together, reluctant to move forward.
It was no wonder they had said the first challenge of the examination involved risking their lives; the examiner had indeed been ruthless.
The examiner was indeed a maniac, even more so than Elena, Zaiden, and the others.
Remus slowly descended and asked, “Fellow cultivators, is there a time limit? How long do we have to pass the challenge?”
“I heard that to the southeast there are bear beasts, led by one at the late stage Divine Separation Stage, with other beasts also at the Divine Separation Stage…”
“To the north, it’s the same, led by a ferocious pig beast. There have already been cultivators who have fallen!”
“Hmph, it’s clear they don’t want us to enter the sacred land. Why not say it outright instead of using this kind of method to humiliate us?”
People were still discussing, paying no further attention to Remus, as If they hadn’t heard him.
Remus surveyed the group. Clearly, simply waiting was not a viable solution.
He raised his voice once more as favonovel.com said, “Fellow cultivators, I have decided to take the initiative. Please lend me your support!”
