When the other star lords heard Li Yu speak, they immediately agreed; for them, choosing either one was fine.

After all, Li Yu had already shown special treatment to Bai Ya before.

After seeing that the Star Lords all agreed, Li Yu raised his eyes again and looked at the white crow at the end of the twelfth light path.

Although his eyes were devoid of warmth, they carried a clear message—"You are safe for now."

Bai Ya accurately caught Li Yu's gaze, and his nerves, which had been taut to the extreme, suddenly relaxed, allowing him to quickly regain his composure.

He knew he had made the right move.

At least, he has temporarily extricated himself from this deadly battle.

Seeing that the Star Lords had not yet made a choice, the third seat of the Deep Sea Watchers, 'Reef Bone', could not hold back any longer.

Behind him, pale blue fluorescent slime seeped from the gaps in the bony armor of the sea monster, the prismatic reef salamander, covering the entire path of light he was in.

At this moment, Jiao Gu seemed impatient and suddenly stepped forward, loudly challenging Wu Pojun to a duel:

"Third Star Lord! I am Reef Bone, on the Second Path of Light! If you dare, come and fight me again!"

Upon hearing this, Wu Pojun burst into laughter, his booming voice causing the sea to churn, and immediately shouted in response:

"Hahaha! Great! Just what I wanted!"

"We didn't get enough of a fight just now, so let's have another one. This time, we'll definitely settle things once and for all!"

Having said that, Wu Pojun turned around and clasped his hands in a fist salute to the assembled star lords:

"Everyone saw it. That guy specifically named me and provoked me like that. It seems that I'm the one who will take that path of light!"

Wu Pojun then shook off the seawater and headed straight for the second path of light, determined to make the arrogant reef pay the price for provoking him.

At the same time, the deep, resonant voice of the Abyss Whale King echoed from the deep sea, its target clear:

"Tianlong! I'll be waiting for you on the first path of light!"
