Chapter 832: Unite
On the Divine Race's side.
Emperor Ashura returned to the clan and spoke with a cold look in his eyes. "Everyone, I've just received news. The Humanity's Supreme seed, Li Pin, will once again take part in the preliminaries of the Ten Thousand Tribes Overlord Tournament."
Several of the Divine Race Heavenly Emperors' expressions turned cold at once. "Again? How brazen!"
One after another, the Heavenly Emperors sneered.
"Does he really think he can dominate the battlefield like last time? He's walking straight into death!"
"He just swept through all the other races. They're still simmering with pent-up anger, waiting to take it out on the humans. And now he's not dodging the heat but charging right into it? Talented, sure, but clearly not very smart."
"Or maybe he has total confidence in himself," said another Heavenly Emperor, whose attire looked strikingly similar to the Scorching Flame Divine Lord's. "Maybe he believes that even if the top fighters from every race team up against him, he'll still come out on top."
The one speaking was Wu Chang, Scorching Flame's senior martial brother. Not only was he a personal disciple of a Supreme, but he had also reached the ninety-eighth step on the Supreme Ladder. He was just one step away from becoming a Divine Emperor himself.
After speaking, Wu Chang looked at Scorching Flame. "Junior brother, I'll leave it to you."
Scorching Flame gave a slight nod.
But before he could say anything, Emperor Ashura spoke up again. "There might be no need for Scorching Flame to act right away."
His tone grew serious. "Word of his strength has already gotten out. I was worried it might make the other races wary enough that Humanity would rally their allies and strike first. But now, with Li Pin drawing all the heat, we can let Scorching Flame lie low. Once those looking for payback clash with Li Pin and both sides wear each other down, then he can make his move."
