The Most Powerful Bodyguard-Chapter 875: Entering the Formation and Drawing Lots

Upon hearing the words of the Elder Celestial Master, Yang Yan gave a bitter smile and said:

"I'm afraid your plan will fall through. That sword is a prize for the top three."

"If you want it, you must make it to the top three!"

"And at that time, if you say you don't want the Lance of Longinus, do you think they will believe you?"

The Elder Celestial Master calmly said:

"In the world, things are only troubling if you let them be! If it really comes to that, all that's left is to fight."

The next phase of the competition is conducted by drawing lots.

This means that everyone has to draw a match with an opponent, and the winner moves on to the next round.

This repeats in cycles until the final champion is decided.

Watching the remaining fewer participants in the arena, Yang Yan became more vigilant.

Don't be fooled by the small number of people left; they are all top-tier warriors.

Satan is not even mentioned, and Yang Yan still doesn't know who came from Heaven!

"If no one has any objections, please come up and draw your lots now!"

The referee announced loudly from the high platform.

With the referee's words, everyone moved to the front of the platform.

However, since this was a competition participated by people from the Hidden World, the method of drawing lots was naturally different from that of the present world.

Looking at the red and black stones on the ground, everyone immediately turned their gaze to the platform.

The referee on the platform loudly declared, "Next, we will let the stones fly. You need to pass through the Flying Stone Array and grab a colored stone."

"There are numbers on the stones. Those with the same number on stones of different colors will be the next pair of opponents."

The Elder Celestial Master chuckled softly:

"Oh? This is quite interesting!"

Yang Yan also laughed:

"Hehe! I suppose this is another round of eliminations, to take out those who just hid for five minutes."

As the referee's words concluded, the stones on the ground began to slowly lift off, rising into the air.

Moreover, it wasn't only the colored stones that flew up.

The stones without colors also lifted into the air.

These stones paused briefly in the air before they began to spin rapidly.

After a short acceleration, they turned into a tornado.

"That guy is strong! His aura is quite similar to some Sword Immortals of Kunlun and Shushan!"

The Elder Celestial Master gazed intensely at the whirlwind formed by the stones, remarking in awe.

"This is the true face of the Hidden World. Lately, I've encountered so much trash, I almost forgot there are such formidable people in the Hidden World."

Yang Yan clenched his fist, speaking with some excitement.

"Hehe! You kid..."

The Elder Celestial Master's smile became even broader:

"That's the spirit. Young people should have some edge, not be gloomy all day."

"If I had your strength at your age, I would have stirred up quite the ruckus in the Hidden World long ago."

Yang Yan merely smiled without any further response.

"This is quite something. These stones are faster than bullets, aren't they?"

"Even high-caliber anti-material weapons don't compare to these stones, right?"

"If you're not strong enough, entering will surely be fatal!"

A Western man in casual attire stood in front of the stone whirlwind, coldly remarking with a stern face.

"Enough nonsense! If you can't even pass something like this, on what grounds are you competing for the Lance of Longinus?"

Another man sneered at him and said disdainfully.

He finished speaking and walked directly toward the whirlwind.

As this man began to move, everyone's eyes instantly focused on him.

When they saw him easily walk in and come out holding a black stone, Yang Yan and the Elder Celestial Master's eyes gleamed sharply.

The others, seeing how nonchalantly the man handled it, also showed eager expressions.

However, when a guy with roughly S-rank strength tried to enter and was immediately turned into a beehive, the others froze again.

"Idiot."

Yang Yan said as he looked at the corpse that was flung to the side.

"Indeed! No clear understanding of his own strength."

"Judging by the guy who just passed, the strength of this whirlwind is not something below SSS-rank can withstand."

"But, that man's physical regeneration is impressive."

The Elder Celestial Master also noted in amazement.

"Please note, there are two minutes remaining. If you don't hurry up, it means you're eliminated."

The referee continued to announce loudly.

"Hmph! Just a Tornado Array, it's not as impressive as they make it out to be."

Someone said and went in directly.

Moreover, he successfully passed through.

Seeing several people with only S-level strength eager to try, Yang Yan turned to the Elder Celestial Master and said:

"Looking at these guys getting ready to move, I don't want to grab stones stained with their blood. Elder Celestial Master, I'll go ahead!"

The Elder Celestial Master chuckled:

"Hehe! Let's go together! Actually, I'm quite fond of this robe I'm wearing."

"I wore it for a special occasion. If it gets dirty here, it will be quite troublesome for me."

After the Elder Celestial Master spoke, he and Yang Yan went in together.

From the outside, the whirlwind might seem intimidating.

But once you're inside, you realize that the first person really died without injustice.

When Yang Yan entered the whirlwind, the stones around him, like bullets with enormous power, continuously struck his body.

Surprisingly, it seemed the stones passed right through Yang Yan, going through his body.

Even more astonishing was that the stones didn't harm him in the slightest.

Looking at the stones flying around, Yang Yan didn't even need to touch them to know.

Their power definitely surpassed the level of an S-rank attack.

"Young friend, which color stone do you want to take?"

The Elder Celestial Master asked Yang Yan.

"Elder Celestial Master, you go first! Whatever color you take, I'll take the same."

Hearing the Elder Celestial Master's words, Yang Yan was momentarily taken aback.

He hadn't noticed how the Elder Celestial Master came in earlier.

However, given the Elder Celestial Master's abilities, such a method shouldn't be able to stop him.

"Then just grab any one! This rule isn't entirely fair, actually."

"As long as you're strong enough, there are loopholes to exploit."

The Elder Celestial Master said with a smile.

The two stood in the center of the whirlwind, where there were no stones.

However, if they wanted to grab stones, it would be even more challenging than entering.

Although the referee didn't say, there must be a limited number of stones here.

Moreover, it's likely one stone per person.
