Having said that, neither side said anything more.
The human supreme saint realm expert and the supreme saint realm expert from the myriad ferocious beast races solemnly swore an oath on the spot, with the Heavenly Dao as their witness.
With the oath fulfilled, the two began to discuss in earnest the list of five participants they would each send.
The atmosphere on the scene instantly became extremely tense, as if an earth-shattering battle was about to begin.
The human race's supreme saint realm expert flashed and arrived before Yuan Zhexian as swiftly as the wind.
His steps were steady, his posture upright, exuding a powerful aura.
After regaining his footing, he clasped his hands together and respectfully bowed to Yuan Zhexian, then said in a slow voice, "Greetings, Yuan Shenzi. I am the Supreme Elder of the Tai'a Clan of Tai'a Heaven. It is truly an honor to meet you today."
Upon seeing this, Yuan Zhexian quickly returned the greeting with a bow and a smile, saying, "Greetings to the Supreme Elder of the Tai'a Clan. I have long admired the prestige of the Tai'a Clan, and seeing you today, I can confirm that it is indeed well-deserved."
The Supreme Elder of the Tai'a Clan nodded slightly, and continued solemnly, "The bet with the myriad ferocious beasts has been settled. The Dharma Emperor's cultivation technique is of utmost importance and must not be allowed to fall into the hands of the myriad ferocious beasts."
"Therefore, I have come here to earnestly request that Yuan Shenzi and all the forbidden beings of the Yuan clan step forward and go to fight."
Having said that, he looked earnestly at Yuan Zhexian, waiting for his response.
Without hesitation, Yuan Zhexian nodded and replied, "Very well! This is a matter of honor and disgrace for the clan, and I, Yuan Zhexian, have no choice but to take it upon myself."
"Brother Haoran, Brother Ruochu, and Jingtian, the three of you will represent our Yuan clan in the battle."
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone present was excited. However, at this moment, they were still one person short of being chosen to compete.
Just then, Jun Yichen, Yu Chenfeng, Ji Youxin, Jian Wushuang, and others stepped forward and requested to fight in unison.
Their eyes were firm, their fighting spirit high, and they all longed to show their skills in this battle.
Even Tai'a Yu Bai, who was standing to the side, could not suppress his inner impulse and couldn't help but ask the Tai'a clan elder, "Elder, I am willing to go to the battle together. Please grant my request!"
The atmosphere suddenly became tense.
Everyone turned their attention to the Supreme Elder of the Tai'a Clan, awaiting his final decision.
Just then, Jun Yichen sensed the immense power of Tai'a Yu Bai's physical body. He looked towards Tai'a Yu Bai and revealed a radiant smile.
However, Tai'a Yu Bai stared coldly at Jun Yichen, his eyes flashing with intense fighting spirit, as if he didn't appreciate Jun Yichen's overtures at all.
This scene made Jun Yichen, who was originally a social butterfly, feel a little embarrassed, and the smile on his face froze.
At this moment, the elder of the Tai'a clan slowly swept his gaze over the crowd.
A subtle hint of contemplation flickered across his weathered face. After a moment, he finally broke the silence by speaking.
"On behalf of everyone present, I would like to express my heartfelt gratitude for your kind intentions."
"However, the situation has changed, and after careful consideration, I have found a more suitable person to deal with the current crisis."
Having said that, his gaze, like a bolt of lightning, shot straight towards Tai'a Qingcheng, who was standing gracefully not far away.
Without hesitation, the elder of the Tai'a clan strode toward where Tai'a Qingcheng was.
Each step seemed to contain endless profound meaning, drawing the attention of everyone around.
When he finally stopped in front of Tai'a Qingcheng, he did not hesitate at all and immediately got straight to the point: "Goddess, please do me the trouble to fight alongside the Yuan Clan's Divine Son and the forbidden powerhouses of the Yuan Clan against the incomparably ferocious beast, the enemy of all races."
As he spoke, he raised his hand and gently pointed in the direction where Yuan Zhexian and the others were standing.
Tai'a Qingcheng looked in the direction he was pointing, and her eyes widened instantly, her face filled with disbelief.
"He...he's actually the divine son of the Yuan clan, and the one I'm betrothed to?"
Tai'a Qingcheng murmured to herself, her heart churning with turbulent waves.
The man before her, who looked so much like her beloved, was actually her fiancé, a sudden turn of events that left her somewhat bewildered.
Just then, the Supreme Elder of the Tai'a Clan noticed the unusual expression on Tai'a Qingcheng's face and hurriedly asked with concern, "Goddess? Is something wrong?"
Upon hearing the question, Tai'a Qingcheng snapped back to reality. She shook her head frantically, trying to calm the turmoil in her heart.
Then he replied softly, "No...it's nothing! Elder, I understand."
Despite saying this, her eyes still couldn't hide the shock and confusion deep inside.
At that moment, after careful selection, the chosen personnel from the various ferocious beast races had been largely finalized.
At this moment, it seemed that Tai'a Qingcheng had made some kind of decision. She gracefully walked with light lotus steps to Yuan Zhexian and the others.
Her beautiful eyes sparkled, and her lips parted slightly as she broke the silence, saying, "I had no idea that you were Yuan Shenzi before. I was truly impolite and hope you will forgive me."
Yuan Zhexian smiled slightly and replied with an elegant air, "It's alright. I had long heard of the Goddess's name, but seeing her face today, I know the rumors are true. It's truly better to see her in person than to hear about her!"
Having said that, his deep, pool-like eyes stared unabashedly at Tai'a Qingcheng's stunningly beautiful face.
Tai'a Qingcheng was slightly displeased by such an unbridled gaze. She frowned slightly and said, "Yuanshenzi, why are you staring at me so intently? Is there something on my face?"
Upon hearing this, Yuan Zhexian was taken aback at first, but then quickly recovered and hurriedly explained, "To be honest, the goddess's appearance and temperament reminded me of an old friend."
Upon hearing this, Tai'a Qingcheng was slightly taken aback, and immediately replied softly, "Oh? I also feel that Yuan Shenzi is quite similar to an old friend of mine."
A hint of surprise flashed in Yuan Zhexian's eyes, and he hurriedly asked, "I wonder who this old friend the goddess speaks of is, and where he is now?"
Tai'a Qingcheng hesitated for a moment, seemingly recalling past events, before slowly saying, "He..."
Just as Tai'a Qingcheng was about to speak, a deafening roar suddenly came from the group of ferocious beasts on the other side, abruptly cutting her off.
One of the five men, his eyes wide like copper bells, roared at them with a fierce expression, "You lowly humans over there, why don't you come out and obediently accept your death! This great sword in my hand is already thirsting for blood; it can't wait to taste the warm, fresh blood of you so-called geniuses and prodigies among the human race!"
