Chapter 1109 - Scramble
Little had changed in the world of martial artists, even after ten years.
By now, most of the ancient battlefield's opportunities and ruins had been thoroughly explored. The True Martial Academy had also recalled many of their experts.
High Elder Mu Wuji was the only Invincible Legendary realm powerhouse still overseeing Little True Martial City. Granny Silver Flower had also returned to the academy.
This wasn't unique to the True Martial Academy; other overlord-class forces, superpowers, and cults had done the same.
When the ancient battlefield first opened, it was rich with treasures and opportunities. Naturally, each faction sent in as many experts as possible to claim what they could and prevent others from gaining the upper hand.
Now, with most of the valuables already uncovered, they didn’t need so many experts to stay in the ancient battlefield. Just a few personnel remained to search for anything that might have been missed.
Furthermore, with the Blood Heavenly Demon Sect reappearing—and their power undeniable—the various forces needed to be on guard, lest the sect exploit any vulnerabilities.
Naturally, the Peerless Peak was incredibly cold and cheerless, as Huang Wuji and the others were still in the ancient battlefield searching for treasures.
As for Teacher Zhang Daoling, Chen Fan had only seen him at the Phoenix Stage. No one knew where he was or what he was doing.
Chen Fan stood atop a towering, cloud-piercing peak at Peerless Peak, surveying the surroundings.
He could sense it clearly: tension gripped the entire True Martial Academy.
