CHAPTER 396: CHAPTER 375: BATTLE OF THE CANDIDATES

The Crab Boss looked at Shi Nian, who was emanating golden light from her whole body, and the entire crab was dumbfounded.

Who could tell him!

Why was his newly promoted squad leader glowing!

And that beam was so dazzling, it instantly pierced through the Nine-layered Sea Domain.

The Crab Boss thought of a possibility.

But he couldn’t quite bring himself to believe it, his claws trembled involuntarily.

Shi Nian gave a wry smile.

She was honestly stunned.

Who knew this would come with commentary and special effects!

And the special effects were so flashy!

Suddenly, she understood how Huo Lie must have felt that time, when he traveled from Huo Lie Peak all the way to Ling Tian Peak amidst the special effects.

It must have been the exact same feeling as hers now.

"Following my Host for so many years! I, Xiao Tong, have finally made a splash with you." Xiao Tong’s eyes brimmed with hot tears.

This was just too rare!

She found an Image Stone and quietly began to record.

She hoped this moment could last forever.

As for what Shi Nian was thinking?

That’s not important!

"Little Blue Fish, you..." the voice of the Crab Boss was trembling.

It wasn’t just him.

The ones below looking at Shi Nian were completely stunned as well.

And sea creatures far away, attracted by the beam, were frantically rushing over here.

In the Seventh Layer Sea Domain, this was the only beam.

A Supreme Strong being has appeared in the Seventh Layer Sea Domain!

Although getting closer might mean death, they couldn’t help wanting to flirt with disaster.

Shi Nian also gave a wry smile; she absolutely had to slip away now, there was no other choice.

"Crab Boss, I’ve got a lot coming up next, so I’ll have to resign from you," Shi Nian said with a hint of reluctance: "I’ve had a wonderful three months here. I was originally thinking of gunning for the position of squad leader."

The Crab Boss instinctively said: "You can be the squad leader right now!"

Shi Nian righteously declined: "That wouldn’t be right! I want to rely on my own true strength!"

The Crab Boss cautiously said: "Then I’ll keep the squad leader spot for you until you’re done being busy, okay?"

Shi Nian’s eyes lit up: "That’s a possibility! How about considering this a paid leave for me this time?"

She haggled.

The Crab Boss was somewhat dumbfounded, but still nodded instinctively.

Upon that, Shi Nian showed a bright smile: "Crab Boss, you’re such a good boss."

"The beam is here! Come quick! A Supreme being is right here!" The noise outside gradually grew louder.

Shi Nian didn’t want to meet them; she gave the Crab Boss and the others a smile and then hid directly into the void, disappearing completely.

As Shi Nian hid away into the void, the beam slowly vanished as well.

The others also used various methods, one by one the beams disappeared.

About the time it takes to drink a cup of tea later, a powerful voice sounded again: "Next, the coordinates of the nine candidates will only be sensed by each other! The combat begins now officially! Only the sole survivor will obtain the Kunpeng True Inheritance and become the true number one being of the ocean!"

The voice was full of provocation, and after speaking, it completely vanished.

And at this moment, the ocean was thoroughly abuzz.

"The nine Supreme Strong beings, battling and devouring, all for the sole Kunpeng Bloodline! The upcoming days are bound to be thrilling!"

"Hey, what are you excited about! When immortals fight, the little fish suffer. With their fight, we are also not going to have an easy time."

"Below in the Third Layer, it’s probably going to be complete chaos. The upper layers will be comfortable, the battles hardly affect them."

"If only I knew that the Kunpeng Bloodline would emerge at this time, I should have strived to suppress my cultivation, not having cultivated so quickly."

"Sigh, let’s just find a cave and hide well!"

The creatures in the Third Layer were all sighing and lamenting.

And the killing had already begun!

With the final announcement, the candidates tore off their last masks.

They began to crazily devour the surrounding beings because in this world, to devour is to become stronger, and it’s the fastest way to power.

But those in the Third Layer were also strong beings. They may not be a match for those candidates in single combat, but if they joined forces, it may not be certain who would be afraid of whom.

Very quickly.

At the Third Layer Sea Domain, all other creatures joined forces to resist the nine candidates.

Unable to hunt on a large scale anymore, these candidates then turned their targets towards each other.

Devouring other creatures could indeed make them stronger, but how could the degree of this strength enhancement compare to devouring a fellow candidate?

Moreover, by devouring another candidate, they could also gain a bit more of the Kunpeng Bloodline.

The mysteries of the Kunpeng Bloodline are boundless, and even a little more of it could greatly enhance their strength.

So!

The killing between the candidates became an inevitable choice.

After a month of avoiding each other, a voice resonated through the sea domain.

"The first candidate, eliminated. Now, eight candidates remain. Please, continue to do your best."

This voice also permeated the entire Nine-layered Sea Domain.

The creatures of the upper layers were not affected, and were merely treating the event as juicy gossip, listening with relish.

The second layer.

The little red fishes were also chatting about the gossip.

"Leader, who do you think will win this time?" A little red fish asked.

The Red Fish Leader said casually: "Of course it will be our Boss Green Fish."

The crowd of red fishes: "???"

The Red Fish Leader couldn’t help but laugh: "Hahaha, just kidding with you guys! Although Senior Green Fish is remarkable, he must be in the Third Layer right now, how could he possibly get involved in this kind of thing! But I have confidence, ten thousand years later if the Kunpeng Bloodline descends again, our Senior Green Fish, will definitely be the victor."

"Yes, long live Senior Green Fish!"

A bunch of little red fishes got excited as well.

Today is a good day.

Long live Senior Green Fish!

Today is a bad day.

Long live Senior Green Fish!

Today I lost a fight.

Long live Senior Green Fish!

Today I won a fight.

Long live Senior Green Fish!

Anyway, long live Senior Green Fish is always right.

At this moment.

Shi Nian was hiding in the void, shivering with fear.

Even though she was in the void, that bizarre rule still locked onto the sea domain where the void was.

Now.

Just outside the void where she was, there were three candidates.

Mamma mia.

Really scary.

Why must this world be filled with fighting and killing!

Although these three candidates encountered each other, knowing that an opponent was hiding in the void, they didn’t immediately attack each other.

"The one in the void. It would be better for you to come out on your own initiative," one candidate said.

"Indeed, do you really plan to hide and ambush us?" another said.

"Since we have to fight sooner or later, let’s have an open and dignified battle."

Shi Nian pretended not to hear.

For her to come out, that was simply impossible!

Shi Nian resolutely refused to show herself, and the expressions on the faces of the three candidates fluctuated.

They intended to have a grand battle, but if they were ambushed by this sneak in the void, dying like that would truly be too wrongful.

At that moment, they sensed...

Shi Nian’s coordinates were gradually moving away.

This trickster was actually escaping while hidden in the void.

The remaining three candidates could only look at each other in consternation.

Now. Should they fight or not?
