After all, she didn’t need to clash head-on with red skeletons as often as Long Haochen did. Long Haochen and Cai’er joined forces and tried several times, and with their tacit cooperation, they actually managed to withstand the red skeleton for a full five minutes.

Although these five minutes consumed a great deal of their energy and put them under considerable pressure, don’t forget that both of them were able to recover inside the Eternal Tower. Moreover, the greater the pressure, the greater the effect. That red skeleton wouldn’t kill them. Long Haochen persisted in ten battles before being teleported back to rest, his body feeling as if it was about to shatter from the pain.

There were no podiums or anything like that in this arena. The leaders of Zhennan Pass and the Alliance were all seated in the front row.

Seeing that almost everyone had arrived, Ling Xiao, the Temple Master of the Priest Temple, walked into the arena.

“Fellow Demon Hunt Squad members, you all know what’s going on, so I won’t go into detail here. I only want to emphasize one point: you are all saviors to Zhennan Pass. You just completed a major battle not long ago. And for the past month, you have become the backbone of our Zhennan Pass defense. On behalf of the Priest Temple and Zhennan Pass, I thank you.”

Although Ling Xiao always kept a straight face, he bowed to the Demon Hunters, the highest of whom were only Commander-level, as a ninth-tier powerhouse and the Temple Master of the Priest Temple. This demeanor was truly admirable.

The Demon Hunters naturally stood up collectively and returned the salute to Ling Xiao in the arena.

Ling Xiao said in a deep voice, “The previous battle almost caused a devastating blow to our Zhennan Pass. You are the saviors of Zhennan Pass, but what are you to each other? You are comrades-in-arms, you are brothers. You all know how high the casualty rate is among Demon Hunt Squads. This time, the spiritual stoves in Dream Paradise are fatally attractive to any profession, but after all, they are external objects. Today’s selection competition is to select the virtuous and capable, not to have you fight to the death. I solemnly warn everyone that killing or maiming opponents is absolutely forbidden in the competition. Otherwise, don’t blame me for being ruthless. I will petition the Alliance to suggest that those who kill their comrades be removed from the Demon Hunt Squad.”

When he said the last sentence, even though he was a priest, his eyes clearly flashed with a chilling light. The terrifying pressure of a ninth-tier powerhouse silenced the hundred or so people present.

After a moment of silence, Ling Xiao said, “There is also a rule that flying is not allowed. Flying is impossible in Dream Paradise, so we also require all contestants not to use spiritual wings to fight in the air during this selection competition. Let the drawing begin.” With a wave of his hand, it also marked the official start of the selection competition.

The lottery ceremony was simple. A wooden box was carried into the arena, containing numbered cards. Players with consecutive numbers would face each other. A new lottery would be drawn for each round to ensure fairness.

One hundred and fifty people participated in the lottery, which could be considered spectacular. When Long Haochen and the other six lined up to go out, they couldn’t help but miss the advanced facilities of the Holy Alliance Grand Arena.

The entire lottery process lasted a full quarter of an hour. The competition also officially began. The enforcer and referee was none other than an eighth-tier Holy Knight. Obviously, although Ling Xiao had made sufficient reminders beforehand, the Demon Hunters present were the most valuable resources of the Alliance. Therefore, an eighth-tier powerhouse was still assigned to act as a referee to ensure that there would be no injuries or deaths.

Long Haochen and his team were lucky in the first round of the lottery. At least the seven of them were not consecutive numbers, avoiding the tragic situation of infighting.

The first match started quickly.

This was a Demon Hunter competition, not the New Demon Hunt Squad selection competition from the beginning. As expected, the competition was incredibly intense from the start. The vast majority of the Demon Hunter participants were sixth-tier powerhouses.

Although they weren’t flying, the battle was still extremely fierce. Intense spiritual energy erupted in the arena, forcing the eighth-tier Holy Knight to release his Radiant Body and prepare to intervene in the match at any time.

The competition progressed quickly. The difference in strength was naturally the key to victory, as drawing an opponent of similar strength was rare.

Among the members of the 21st Commander-level Demon Hunt Squad, the smallest number was actually Chen Ying’er. She naturally became the first to enter the arena.

“Number 35, Number 36, enter the arena to compete.”

Number 36 was Chen Ying’er.

Lin Xin flicked his hair, looked at Chen Ying’er and said, “Just admit defeat if you can’t handle it. Don’t waste magic crystals. Your opponent is a sixth-tier powerhouse.”

“Tch, why should I admit defeat? I’ll just use it.” Chen Ying’er rolled her eyes at him and walked into the arena holding her McDull Pig.

Although there were members of Commander-level Demon Hunt Squads who had fought before, almost all of those who had won were sixth-tier powerhouses from Marshal-level Demon Hunt Squads. At this time, the sight of such a delicate little girl as Chen Ying’er walking into the arena immediately surprised most of the Demon Hunters.

Is this little girl even twenty years old? Did she come to the wrong place? She’s probably from a Soldier-level Demon Hunt Squad.

Chen Ying’er was indeed lucky. Her opponent was a veteran Commander-level Demon Hunt Squad water-elemental mage with a cultivation level of about the fifth tier, eighth rank.

The referee glanced at Chen Ying’er, and then said in a deep voice, “Let me emphasize again, no vicious attacks allowed. The competition begins.” When he said this, he was facing the water-elemental mage entirely, indicating that he didn’t have high hopes for Chen Ying’er.

In a battle between a mage and a summoner, the two sides kept a distance of fifty meters.

The water-elemental mage had already smiled when he saw that his opponent was such a little girl. Not to mention him, even people who knew about Long Haochen’s team wouldn’t be optimistic about Chen Ying’er.

In the resting area, Yang Wenzhao’s expression was extremely ugly at this time, and he muttered, “What is Long Haochen doing? How can he let Ying’er participate in this kind of competition? What if she gets hurt?”

However, when the competition really started, those who were not optimistic about Chen Ying’er quickly became sluggish.

As a Demon Hunter, the water-elemental mage looked down on Chen Ying’er a little, but he was not careless after the competition started. For Demon Hunters, carelessness meant death, so he cautiously chanted the spell for an elemental water shield. Then he saw the little pig in Chen Ying’er’s arms suddenly jumped out of Chen Ying’er’s arms, and then ran in his direction.

Is this little pig a magical beast? No way. This water-elemental mage considered himself to be knowledgeable, but he didn’t remember there being such a magical beast in his memory.

The elemental water shield was quickly completed, and a layer of blue light enveloped the water-elemental mage’s body. With his staff pointing forward, he instantly cast an ice arrow at McDull.

I have to say that among the Commander-level Demon Hunt Squads, there are very few who are as rich as Long Haochen and the others. The staff in the hands of this water-elemental mage was still Spiritual-Demonic grade.

When he launched the ice arrow, the mage specifically glanced at Chen Ying’er, but found that the little girl had no intention of chanting spells at all.

He also encountered such a battle for the first time, which was really confusing.

Seeing that the ice arrow was about to reach McDull, he stomped the ground with his four hooves, suddenly made a side-dive action, and when his round body touched the ground, he instantly completed a roll, and then pounced on the mage again.

McDull’s timing of jumping up was excellent, just at the moment when the ice arrow reached him, so that the water-elemental mage couldn’t control the ice arrow to attack him. It directly pierced the ground and shattered.

“Huh.” The water-elemental mage pointed his staff again, and this time, he instantly cast a fourth-order Ice Rain technique, which was also a skill attached to his staff, which could be used twice a day.

What fell in the Ice Rain technique was not water droplets, but ice cones. A large number of ice cones directly enveloped McDull’s small body.

At this time, McDull was still about thirty meters away from the water-elemental mage.

A shocking scene appeared, McDull showed powerful dodging ability at this moment, shrinking his body together as much as possible, his speed increased sharply, and he kept drilling through the gaps in the ice cones under the flash and maneuver. At the most dangerous time, some ice cones even brushed past his spine.

Mages have their own inherent thinking, in their opinion, range magic cannot be dodged. But at this moment, McDull taught all mages a lesson, who said range magic cannot be dodged?

McDull’s body is only a foot long, and has never grown up, the ice cones are dense, but there are gaps, otherwise it would be an ice wall falling down.

While dodging, he was still moving forward.

The ice cone technique somewhat interfered with the water-elemental mage’s line of sight. When he saw the little pig’s powerful dodging action clearly, McDull was only a dozen meters away from him.

A hint of unease finally appeared in the water-elemental mage’s heart. This little pig is stubbornly rushing towards me, there must be a purpose. Although he didn’t feel any spiritual energy fluctuations on McDull’s body, as a Demon Hunter, his keen judgment of danger prompted him to react immediately.

This time it was really an ice wall technique, an ice wall up to three meters wide suddenly stood up in front of McDull, blocking his way. Seeing that he was about to rush to the ice wall, the water-elemental mage showed his understanding and control of magic. Three ice walls rose instantly one after another, sealing the other three directions, artificially creating an ice cell, accurately sealing McDull, who was less than ten meters away from him, in it.

Just as the water-elemental mage breathed a sigh of relief, suddenly, a fear from the bottom of his heart suddenly appeared. In the next instant, a strong explosion sound came from the ice wall.

A huge figure rushed out fiercely, and two cone-like weapons instantly reached his chest.

Anti-Ice Ring. The water-elemental mage released the magic immediately in panic. Unfortunately, the opponent he was facing was not someone who could be blocked by an Anti-Ice Ring.

Puff–The ice ring and the elemental water shield shattered almost one after another, and the Bloodthirsty Berserker, who was more than three meters tall and wielding a pair of strong spikes, had already approached him.

“Roar–“
