“I am number 94,” Cao Yi said.

“Number 89,” Sha Bi said after a slight silence.

"Number 90." Qu Bai followed closely behind.

Finally, everyone turned their attention to Lin Sanmo.

"81," Lin Sanmo also uttered a number.

So everyone looked at each other, then felt a bit dumbfounded.

Turns out we're all in the same club...

But upon further reflection, I realized that this was actually how it should be.

Before sinking, I heard Sister No. 9, the most lively one in the Hundred Kings Hall, say that under normal circumstances, only a few people can enter the Hundred Kings Hall in a year, and sometimes not even one person can enter for two consecutive years.

In addition, the brutal elimination rate keeps the number of members in the Hall of a Hundred Kings at around a hundred.

The five people standing here, apart from Shen Qian, can all be considered to be of the same age, or at least to be geniuses who have emerged in the past few years.

Their ability to ascend to the Nine Heavens Ranking speaks volumes about their talent.

It was only natural that they were all absorbed into the Hall of Hundred Kings. Even Cao Yi, Bai Fei, and others had numbers next to each other, but indeed, in these past few years, they were the only ones who shone brightly in the world.

In comparison, Shen Qian, ranked 98th, is considered a generation behind.

As for why Lin Sanmo was ranked 81st...

Given the other party's exceptional talent, they might have been selected by the Hall of Hundred Kings at the age of sixteen or seventeen, or even earlier.

Only in this way can we live up to the other party's great reputation of "suppressing their contemporaries".

It's impossible that Lin Sanmo's first half of life was also unremarkable, and then he suddenly rose to prominence after obtaining the system like Shen Qian, right?

All six of them came from the Hall of Hundred Kings, so it's no wonder that their conversations weren't bound by any rules.

With this relationship, the initial barriers between them completely disappeared.

Most importantly... it has been confirmed from Shen Qian's words that this is the world behind the "door".

In other words, within the division of human territory, this is a typical battlefield outside of human domains.

Since the revival of spiritual energy, the human race has established many rules, among which there is a supreme law: as long as they are on the battlefield outside the domain, human warriors will never fight among themselves.

At this point, after the accident, no one would mention the Nine Heavens War anymore.

They are natural comrades and partners, and absolutely trustworthy.

Therefore, when Lin Sanmo had already sensed something amiss in this world, and then learned from Qin Xiaoke that it was Shen Qian who had made the move, he flew into a rage the moment he saw the fake Shen Qian.

Because this is a betrayal of the entire species!

"who!"

As everyone was deep in thought, suddenly, Lin Sanmo and Shen Qian turned their heads almost simultaneously, their eyes locking onto a certain direction.

Bai Fei and the other two immediately stepped forward and protected the injured Qu Bai behind them.

"It's me..."

The newcomer raised his hands and emerged from the smoke reflecting the flames; he was a short-haired young man wearing a gray robe.

"Fang Fan?"

The group was unfamiliar with the newcomer, but they recognized him at a glance and immediately lowered their guard.

Shen Qian glanced at the newcomer a few times, then lowered the tip of his knife.

Fang Fan is also one of the top geniuses on the Nine Heavens Ranking, but compared to the other nine, his origins are more mysterious.

As far as Shen Qian knew, he came from a second-rate martial arts academy in Shanghai, but that academy obviously couldn't have produced such a peerless genius, so he was probably just a figurehead like Sha Bi.

Beforehand, countless people had paid attention to the other party. Some said he was a reclusive successor of the Nine Kings family, others said he was a direct genius trained by the Martial Arts Department, and still others said he was the offspring of a certain noble family. In short, there were many different opinions and no consensus.

However, considering that there are more than one genius like Fang Fan who suddenly appeared out of nowhere on the Nine Heavens Ranking, since they couldn't find anything out, they had no choice but to give up.

Fang Fan was also unusually low-key. He did not show up at the banquet at the Luoshenbo Manor, and his opponent did not make any moves after the Nine Heavens Battle began.

Even back in the Rift Valley of the Sixth Heaven, the other party barely spoke, keeping an incredibly low profile.

However, Cao Yi and the others were mostly happy to see another comrade appear before them unharmed.

Based on the information everyone has compared, it can now be basically confirmed that, most likely, only the ten people on the Nine Heavens Ranking were transported to this Spirit Witch World.

Of course, there may be other martial artists, but they just haven't been discovered yet.

If it is indeed the ten people from the Nine Heavens Ranking who entered the Spirit Witch World, Qin Xiaoke, Mu Ziyan, and Wu Yi have already perished, and the remaining seven are all here.

The principle remains the same: here, they are absolute comrades-in-arms.

When facing an unknown environment and enemy, having one more person naturally means having one more unit of strength.

"What on earth happened? I've been looking around for ages and haven't seen a single person..."

As Fang Fan approached, he asked in confusion.

Cao Yi stepped forward and briefly explained the current situation of everyone. Fang Fan, like them, was instantly shocked.

From their perspective, no one could understand why such an oversight would occur in the battle of the Nine Heavens.

However, none of them mentioned the "Hall of a Hundred Kings." When they found it difficult to utter the words "Hall of a Hundred Kings," they realized that Fang Fan was not a member of the Hall of a Hundred Kings.

“Shen Qian, based on what you just said, assuming that only the ten of us were sent to the Spirit Witch World, then the enemy… is very likely from a foreign race, or even the Spirit Witch Clan.”

Qu Bai then analyzed, "You said that the branch Lin Sanmo cut off came from that ancient tree, so according to your judgment, the enemy would be..."
