Chapter 1036: Great Sovereign
Ye Guan glanced at the distant grand hall, falling into deep contemplation. A sense of unease was weighing him down, but he knew that this was only the tip of the iceberg.
As Ye Guan and Fang Yu continued their conversation, more and more people began entering the hall. Each entry signified one fewer spot available. Before long, twenty-two people had already entered the hall, leaving only eight spots.
There were now a hundred or two hundred thousand people vying for just eight spots.
In the crowd, countless young cultivators were filled with resentment, but no one dared to speak out. No one could afford to offend the top clans.
This was their privilege! Would they dare air out their grievances?
At best, they would die. At worst, their entire clan would perish.
The Guanxuan Laws existed, but the powerful clans always had a thousand ways to destroy those beneath them; they could do it without anyone noticing.
It was simply impossible to oppose them.
Next to Ye Guan, Fang Yu looked at the distant hall and sighed deeply. There was anger in his eyes, but his eyes were mostly filled with helplessness. The anger faded quickly as well.
