Chapter 1032: Y’all Ran Really Fast
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Under the fire tung tree, amid a flash of light, a few figures stepped out of the tree hole.
“They’re out!” Qi Tiancheng said hurriedly. He was elated.
He knew that the partic.i.p.ants of this trial were special. It wouldn’t be a good thing if they died in Flaming River World. Thus, he was happy to see them return safely.
The head of the chamber saw them too. The spectators realized that Cao Hongtu and his team had returned, but w.a.n.g Teng’s group was nowhere in sight.
“Are y’all the only ones who came out?” the head of the chamber asked.
!!
“Junior Brother w.a.n.g Teng is still in Flaming River World.” Cao Hongtu shook his head and revealed a perfect amount of sadness.
He was putting on an act in front of others again, pretending to be a good senior brother.
Sinclamon snorted in contempt in his heart when he saw his response.
Superficial!
Fake!
He couldn’t stand this man.
Cao Wu pretended that he didn’t see anything. He was still immersed in the guilt of abandoning Cao Jiaojiao.
He didn’t have a good relations.h.i.+p with his siblings since every one of them had different viewpoints and interests, but they were still blood-related. He wasn’t a heartless man.
“Let’s wait a while longer,” the head of the chamber suggested.
The flaming river mirror above them turned blurry and exploded with a bang. The image shown in the mirror also disappeared.
Everyone’s expression changed slightly.
“Flaming River World has collapsed. The flaming river mirror is useless, and we can’t see the situation inside anymore. I’m afraid the possibility of their survival is grim,” Qi Tiancheng’s pupils constricted as he spoke in a dismal tone.
The head of the chamber was a universe-stage martial warrior. He had been through many situations, so his composure was well-trained. He quickly reacted and nodded in agreement.
Everyone started discussing in low voices. However, since the head hadn’t spoken, they continued waiting in place. After all, no one knew the result until the last moment.
“How is it?” Valteru asked Sinclamon through voice transmission.
“That fellow entered the location of the final legacy. He hadn’t come out when I left,” Sinclamon reported truthfully.
“That means he still has a chance to come out.” Valteru frowned.
“The legacy of a universe-stage martial warrior isn’t easy to get. That fellow is just a planetary-stage martial warrior who overestimated his own ability. He probably has no chance of leaving the small world.” Sinclamon snorted.
While they were talking, the glow within the tree hole distorted before dissipating. The entrance to the Flaming River World had disappeared!
There was a huge commotion. This time, there was no hope.
Cao Hongtu and Sinclamon were elated. They exchanged glances with each other and saw an inconspicuous smile at the corner of each other’s lips.
This was the best ending!
Was that b.a.s.t.a.r.d finally dead?
They hated w.a.n.g Teng to the core, so they wished that he could drop dead. Thus, when they saw this scene, they wanted to scream to vent the frustration and anger in their hearts.
But when Sinclamon remembered the two divine flames w.a.n.g Teng had, he felt his heart breaking.
Those were divine flames!
And there were two!
It was a pity that they were gone.
Sinclamon felt his heart throbbing as if he had lost a few billion.
It was all that brat’s fault. He would rather die than pa.s.s him the divine flames. The divine flames would vanish along with the small world. No matter how powerful he was, he wouldn’t be able to retrieve it.
Cao Hongtu heaved a sigh of relief. They hadn’t completed most of the missions for this trial. If w.a.n.g Teng was here, he might lose.
The good thing was, w.a.n.g Teng died in Flaming River World, making him the winner by default.
Hahaha…
If the situation allowed him to, he wanted to laugh. He was the final winner. No one could take the t.i.tle away from him.
w.a.n.g Teng was just a planetary-stage martial warrior. He was seeking death when he decided to fight with him.
The other members of the chamber sighed. No one expected the trial to end in this manner.
The young man who dared to challenge a heaven-stage martial warrior still lost in the end.
Although many members of the chamber looked down on w.a.n.g Teng who had no background, they admired his courage. Well, at least he was a brave country b.u.mpkin!
The head of the chamber stood up with his forever-calm expression. No one could tell what he was thinking. Maybe he didn’t care about this planetary-stage martial warrior either.
“Head, Cao Hongtu is the winner of this trial, right?” Cao Hongtu stood up and said after bowing.
A sharp glint flashed pa.s.sed Cao Hongtu’s eyes. Ambition was growing in his heart.
The baron’s t.i.tle belonged to him! Finally!
No one could threaten him now!
He looked at the head of the chamber with burning eyes, waiting for this elder to say the final verdict. He had waited too many years for this result!
To him, every single second was torture. He might be a heaven-stage martial warrior, but he had a hard time controlling the agitation in his heart. He wished he could pry open the elder’s mouth and force him to speak.
Unfortunately, he didn’t have the guts.
“Since the result is out…” The elder’s calm voice finally resounded. Suddenly, he stopped, staring at the tree hole.
The tree hole was s.h.i.+mmering. The s.p.a.ce in the hole started to distort and the vanished door appeared again.
Cao Hongtu and Sinclamon were flabbergasted. They were filled with disbelief.
How was that possible?
Bewilderment overwhelmed their hearts. They couldn’t accept the truth and stared intently at the s.p.a.ce door.
Their gazes were sinister. The calmness and pretense a second ago were gone. None of them wished to see w.a.n.g Teng’s figure.
However, at this stage, they had no say over anything.
A few figures stepped out from the light.
The person leading the way was wearing a battle uniform. He stood up straight and had a calm smile on his face. He was w.a.n.g Teng.
The mecha martial warriors followed closely behind him like his guards.
Cao Hongtu and Sinclamon’s expressions turned ugly. They almost went mad.
They nearly jumped in joy when they thought w.a.n.g Teng had died in Flaming River World. Yet, he was standing right in front of them now. This was a tight slap in their faces.
Why? Why isn’t he dead!? Cao Hongtu’s eyes were bloodshot. He almost went out of control.
The baron’s t.i.tle flew away the moment it touched his hands.
His t.i.tle… was gone!
After a moment of daze, the members of the chamber were dumbfounded. Some started to gloat, looking back and forth between Cao Hongtu and w.a.n.g Teng. This was an exceptionally interesting scene.
“Hey, everyone is here.” w.a.n.g Teng stepped out of the door and greeted everyone after looking around.
Then, he paused and focused on Cao Hongtu. He chuckled. “Senior Brother Cao, Sir Sinclamon, y’all ran really fast. You guys disappeared before I came out from the legacy location. I thought something happened to you.”

Sinclamon: …
