Chapter 3791: The Fire Dragon Mountain
Chapter 3791 The Fire Dragon Mountain
In the mirror abyss.
Duan Ling Tian looked majestic as he stood on the spatial barrier.
Hou Qing Ning and Murong Yin Yue were already outside the abyss, successfully passing the qualifying test. More than half of the participants from the Linghu clan and the Murong clan had also left the abyss safely. It did not take long before all of the participants from the two clans successfully left the mirror abyss.
However, Duan Ling Tian seemed like he had no intention of withdrawing the barrier at all.
"We won't be able to pass the qualifying test if Duan Ling Tian helps the others from the lord-rank forces as well! I suggest all of us join forces to attack him and the barrier. I don't believe he'd be a match for our combined strength!"
Someone stepped forward to raise the morale of those who were not from lord-rank forces at this moment, and it worked. After all, there were limited spots left. Now that the participants from the Linghu clan and the Murong clan had claimed almost 40 spots, there were even fewer spots left. If Duan Ling Tian helped the others from lord-rank forces as well, they would have no spots left for themselves at all.
"He's right! I don't believe he can block all of our attacks if we attack at the same time!"
"Let's attack simultaneously!"
"Let's go!"
Those who were not from lord-rank forces became even more united at this time. All of them mobilized their Divine Energies. They now had the courage to retaliate since they were not united, and they knew Duan Ling Tian could not kill them due to the Flying Dragon Sect's rules.
At the same time, the members of the lord-rank forces, except for those from the Linghu clan and the Murong clan, exchanged a look, wondering which side they should choose. After all, Duan Ling Tian did agree to help them.
'I didn't even say if I'd help or not...' Duan Ling Tian thought to himself, feeling speechless, as he watched those who were not from lord-rank forces charge at him in unison. When he looked up and saw that the last of the members from the Murong clan had left the mirror abyss, he suddenly teleported away. With his departure, the spatial barrier shattered almost immediately.
"Duan Ling Tian didn't intend to help them?!"
With this, a fierce battle broke out between those who remained in the mirror abyss. Those from the other lord-rank forces were under huge pressure as they were attacked by those who were not from the lord-rank forces. Clearly, those who were not from the lord-rank forces were venting their anger at Duan Ling Tian on them. As a result, it caused the remaining participants from the lord-rank forces to resent Duan Ling Tian.
Meanwhile, after Duan Ling Tian left the mirror abyss, the people from the Linghu clan and the Murong clan, including Murong Yin Yue, thanked Duan Ling Tian profusely.
After that, Hou Qing Ning shook his head as he watched the fierce battle in the abyss and said, "Duan Ling Tian, those participants from the lord-rank forces whom you left behind are definitely going to hold a grudge against you."
As time passed, more and more people left the mirror abyss; this included those from the lord-rank forces as well. Although they were outnumbered, it was not difficult for the strong ones to leave. However, most of the participants who left the mirror abyss successfully were not from the lord-rank forces. After all, with the departure of those from the Linghu clan and the Murong clan, they were even more outnumbered.
Some of the participants from the other lord-rank forces looked at the participants from the Linghu clan and the Murong clan resentfully. One of them said, "Don't celebrate just yet. Although Duan Ling Tian is strong, do you think he'd be able to help you with the upcoming tests as well?
Since they did not have the courage to confront Duan Ling Tian, they could only direct their anger and frustrations at those from the Linghu clan and the Murong clan. Even those who managed to leave the abyss were filled with anger and resentment. Despite that, none of them dared to say anything to Duan Ling Tian and could only insult the others.
"Why don't you spend your time healing your injuries instead of bickering?" Duan Ling Tian asked tonelessly as he looked at the group of participants from the lord-rank forces.
Duan Ling Tian's words brought them to their senses, and they began to consume Divine Pills to heal their injuries.
After a moment, all of the people who passed the qualifying test finally came out of the mirror abyss.

With this, Duan Ling Tian and the others were led to another place to register their names.
At this time, an inner deacon of the Flying Dragon Sect, who had heard of Duan Ling Tian, gave Duan Ling Tian a thumbs-up as he said, "Duan Ling Tian, you're truly worthy of your reputation. I thought the rumors were exaggerated, but you have proven me wrong today."
"I'm sure many of our Black Dragon Elders will be fighting among themselves to accept you as their disciple after you join the Flying Dragon Sect. Based on your talent and the strength you displayed, you're not far off from our three youngest White Dragon Elders."
After praising Duan Ling Tian, the inner deacon gave his Soul Pearl to Duan Ling Tian and continued to say, "My name is Zhou Hao. I'm an inner deacon of the Flying Dragon Sect. Please don't hesitate to contact me after you join the Flying Dragon Sect. I can answer the questions you have regarding the sect." "Thank you, Deacon Zhou," Duan Ling Tian said after exchanging Soul Pearl with Zhou Hao. Since the other party was rather enthusiastic, he found it difficult to act coldly toward the other party.
At this time, an old man, an inner elder of the Flying Dragon Sect, walked over to Duan Ling Tian and the others and said, "I'll bring all of you into the Flying Dragon Sect's estate. The inner disciples' examination will begin soon."
As the old man led everyone into the Flying Dragon Sect, he would glance at Duan Ling Tian occasionally with his eyes that shone with admiration. As they headed toward one of the nine mountain ranges, he said, "My name is Xiao Zhen. I'm an inner elder of the
sect."
Xiao Zhen continued to introduce the places in the Flying Dragon's estate as they moved. "I'll be bringing you to our sect's Fire Dragon Mountain. There are many volcanoes there. You can't really see them now. They're isolated by a Formation. The Formation will contain the lava when there's an eruption so the estate won't be affected."
Duan Ling Tian narrowed his eyes as he looked ahead. Indeed, after a moment, he saw a few volcanoes. However, since they were sandwiched by many lush mountains, they were quite inconspicuous. He saw one of the volcanoes was in the midst of spewing lava, and just like Xiao Zhen had said, the lava was contained and neutralized by the Formation.
"Previously, I saw glimpses of bright light; I thought it was the sunlight. As it turns out, it's from the lava," Hou Qing Ning, who was standing next to Duan Ling Tian, said, "This must be how Fire Dragon Mountain got its name."
Soon enough, Xiao Zhen and the others arrived at the side of one of the mountains near the Fire Dragon Mountain.
There was a huge stone platform with many people standing on it. After taking a closer look, Duan Ling Tian discovered they were the participants from the two age groups. Du Po Jun, Du Qian Jun, and Hu Tian Du were naturally among these people. The two age groups stood apart from each other. With this, Duan Ling Tian and the others stood together as well.
Duan Ling Tian knew they were still separated into different age groups because the Flying Dragon Sect's examinations had different levels of difficulty for the different age groups. Unlike the Latent Dragon Grand Contest, it was so that those who were older would not have an advantage over the young.
After they arrived, Duan Ling Tian was once again bombarded with messages of gratitude from the members of the Linghu clan and the Murong clan.
Soon enough, Xiao Zhen said, "The inner disciples' entrance examinations will commence once the other elders arrive."
