297: Surrounded

When dealing with large-scale team brawls, it’s always better to make a move as late as possible.

Since the other teams on the Heavenly Venerate Arena aren't actively attacking them, their best strategy is to wait in place and conserve their strength.

Waiting until those people have fought it out, and then going in to finish them off, is the most correct choice.

Hearing Wang Ba's words,

The hundred or so Outer Sect Disciples in the team glanced at the battlefield and understood Wang Ba's meaning.

So, they all nodded and said,

"Alright, Senior Brother Wang Ba, we'll listen to you. We'll rest here for now. As long as they don't attack us first, we won't make a move."

"Yes, this way we can preserve our strength. The later it is, the greater our chances of advancing."

The hundred people thus carried out Wang Ba's plan and began chatting on the arena.

A few even gathered around Wang Ba with smiles on their faces, trying to get close to him.

"Hehe, Senior Brother Wang Ba, to be able to come up with such a brilliant plan, we truly admire you wholeheartedly."

"That's right, Senior Brother Wang Ba, with this brilliant plan of yours, our chances of advancing have greatly increased."

"Senior Brother Wang Ba, I heard that your Cultivation Technique is an Immortal Rank Cultivation Method called 'Overbearing Immortal Art,' which can release a very powerful Wang Ba's Aura. I wonder if you could let your Junior Brothers witness it later?"

"Exactly, Senior Brother Wang Ba, during the last competition, we didn't even get to experience your Wang Ba's Aura before you were eliminated. This time, you must let your Junior Brothers see the power of your Immortal Art."

The voices of a few people also attracted the attention of other Disciples around them, who all turned their gaze towards Wang Ba.

The reason they were willing to listen to Wang Ba and Kun Kun was because they Cultivated Immortal Arts, and their strength was considerably greater than those Disciples who Cultivated Techniques.

That was because the two of them Cultivated Immortal Arts, and their strength was much greater than that of the Disciples who Cultivated Techniques.

Therefore, they were also very curious about the power of their Immortal Arts.

Seeing that the moment Wang Ba's Aura was mentioned, the eyes of over a hundred Disciples all gathered on him,

Wang Ba smiled proudly and said, "Easy, easy. During the brawl later, I, your Senior Brother, will fully unleash my Wang Ba's Aura to suppress the entire field. You just go up and harvest."

"Stinky Kun Kun, isn't that right?" After Wang Ba finished speaking, he didn't forget to forcefully pat Kun Kun's shoulder next to him.

And hearing Wang Ba call him Stinky Kun Kun again,

Kun Kun unhappily shook off Wang Ba's hand and angrily shouted, "Get lost! I told you not to call me Stinky Kun Kun. If you call me Stinky Kun Kun again, be careful, I might sneak attack you later."

Seeing that he had again said something taboo to Kun Kun at this crucial moment,

Wang Ba patted Kun Kun's shoulder again and quickly apologized with a smile, "Oh, Brother Kun, I'm so sorry. I was just too happy, so I couldn't hold back. I'll pay attention next time."

Now was a critical time for advancing to Inner Sect Disciple, and he couldn't let Kun Kun throw a tantrum at this moment.

As the saying goes, 'a moment's impatience can ruin a great plan.' Everything must prioritize the Advancement Conference.

As for the nickname Stinky Kun Kun, after they advanced to Inner Sect Disciples, he could call him that a thousand, ten thousand times.

Seeing Wang Ba and Kun Kun having a conflict over a nickname,

The hundred-plus Disciples were also afraid that Kun Kun might do something drastic because of this, so they quickly spoke up to mediate.

"Oh, Senior Brother Kun, Senior Brother Wang Ba didn't do it on purpose. Don't be angry with Senior Brother Wang Ba."

"That's right, Senior Brother Kun, now is a critical time for advancing to the Inner Sect. Our small team cannot have internal strife; that would be detrimental to us in every way."

"Yes, yes, Senior Brother Kun, everything must prioritize the big picture."

After being advised by the group,

Kun Kun's expression also softened. He cupped his fists to the group and said, "Junior Brothers and Junior Sisters, don't worry. What I just said was out of anger. Even if I'm displeased with someone, I'll put it aside until after the Advancement Conference. Let's work together later and cross the threshold into the Inner Sect together."

Hearing Kun Kun's words, the hundred-plus people all breathed a sigh of relief and quickly complimented Kun Kun a few times.

"Senior Brother Kun truly understands righteousness; he is a role model for us all."

"Exactly, Senior Brother Kun can put personal grievances aside. His broad-mindedness is something we truly cannot compare to."

Facing everyone's compliments, Kun Kun smiled somewhat awkwardly, and a stir caused by a nickname was thus quelled.

The group continued to chat leisurely on the stage.

This formed a stark contrast with the fierce brawl on the main arena and the chaotic battles on the other two arenas.

Such a discordant scene

Also made the newly arrived Outer Sect Disciples below, whose cultivation was insufficient and who were sitting on long benches, let out gasps of surprise.

"Oh, why isn't anyone attacking those Senior Brothers and Senior Sisters on the Heavenly Venerate Arena?"

"That's right, ever since those Senior Brothers and Senior Sisters got on stage, no one has gone to trouble them. They've just been chatting and putting their arms around each other. This is too strange, isn't it?"

Seeing the bewildered expressions of these Disciples,

Some low-Realm Disciples around them who had participated in the last competition quickly explained with a smile.

"Junior Brothers and Junior Sisters, you've just arrived, so you don't know yet. Senior Brother Wang Ba and Senior Brother Kun Cultivate Immortal Arts, and their strength is among the best in our Outer Sect Disciples. So, the Senior Brothers and Senior Sisters from other teams will definitely pick on the weaker ones first. Why would they attack the strongest right away?"

"That's right, Senior Brother Wang Ba and Senior Brother Kun aren't just powerful on their own; their team also consists of veteran Disciples who have been in the sect for a long time. It can be said that their team is the strongest team in the Heavenly Venerate Realm. Who would be so foolish as to challenge the strongest team right away?"

Hearing the Disciples' explanations,

The Disciples who had just been puzzled instantly had expressions of sudden realization.

"Hiss, so that's how it is! No wonder such a bizarre thing happened. So that's the strongest team!"

"That's right, only the strongest team gets this treatment. Even if we encountered such a situation, we would first clear out the weaker teams. After all, fighting the strongest team as soon as you get on stage makes it very easy to be eliminated."

After understanding the reason,

Most people's gazes were all focused on the Heavenly Venerate Arena.

After all, Wang Ba and Kun Kun were said to be so powerful, so they must have some real skills.

So they wanted to see what kind of strength Wang Ba, Kun Kun, and the others, who were called the strongest team in the Heavenly Venerate Realm, truly possessed.

Under the watchful eyes of a large number of spectating Disciples,

Wang Ba and Kun Kun's hundred-person team finally welcomed a group of opponents.

This was a team of two hundred and fifty people. After dealing with a hundred-person team, they set their sights on Wang Ba and the others, who had been chatting.

Under the command of a few leading Disciples, they quickly formed an encirclement, surrounding Wang Ba and Kun Kun's hundred-plus people.

The leaders among them had experienced the strength of Wang Ba and Kun Kun.

During the last competition, when they were still in the Earth Venerable Realm, they were eliminated by Wang Ba and Kun Kun.

Although the leaders still felt lingering fear regarding the strength of Wang Ba and Kun Kun,

Now they had two hundred and fifty people, more than double Wang Ba's group, so their apprehension was much less.

After all, with two against one, their chances of winning were still very high.

As long as they first eliminated Wang Ba and Kun Kun's helpers, then a hundred-plus people could simultaneously deal with the two of them.

Even if the two had three heads and six arms, they would still be eliminated.
