After awakening, the female supporting character in the abused novel only wants to ascend to immorta

Chapter 149 Surrounded by Wolves
After Lin Zhao learned that Su Bai would be the first to fight, although he was somewhat worried about the second round of the Heavenly Phoenix Selection, he also understood that it was the best choice at the moment.

Fortunately, the two disciples from the Azure Phoenix Continent who followed Lan Yingying did not possess the same methods. After they climbed the tower, the brightness of the Qiongyuan Tower did not change.

The final score for the Azure Phoenix Continent was 141 points. Apart from Lan Yingying, the other two disciples could not climb any higher after reaching the 40th level.

Just as the last disciple of the Azure Phoenix Continent emerged, as Lin Zhao had anticipated, the woman beside Mo Zunchao gave him a wink, and she prepared to rush into the Qiongyuan Tower.

Lin Zhao noticed this scene and couldn't help but sneer.

She could render the thorough preparations for a four-way alliance ineffective before, and she can do the same now.

The method of forming an alliance among the four parties in Qiongyuan Tower is not particularly sophisticated; it merely exploits an information gap. However, once they grasp this information gap, the confidence of the four parties in forming an alliance becomes the advantage for the Tianhuang Continent.

Before the powerful figures from the Peacock Continent entered the tower, everyone was surprised to find a red figure using the technique of shrinking the distance to an inch to enter the Qiongyuan Tower, while the female disciples from the Peacock Continent were still dozens of meters away from the Qiongyuan Tower.

Seeing Mo Zun and Jiang Yan's faces darken several shades in an instant, the people from the four-way alliance unconsciously moved a little further away from them, and the disciples from other continents didn't dare to breathe loudly either.

Only Lin Zhao crossed his arms, met the two men's almost murderous gazes with a half-smile, and said, "Gentlemen, are you in such a hurry to enter the Qiongyuan Tower?"

Mo Zun noticed Lin Zhao's knowing expression and realized that she had seen through his scheme. He glanced at Jiang Yan and said meaningfully, "I never expected that our plans to form an alliance time and time again would be defeated by you."

Lin Zhao didn't answer. She looked at the Qiongyuan Tower and felt the killing intent emanating from Mo Zun. Suddenly, out of the blue, she said, "You can't take it? Then don't cry later."

This four-way alliance has repeatedly plotted against the Heavenly Phoenix Continent. Previously, it was only because the Heavenly Phoenix Continent lacked the strength to retaliate that Lin Zhao could only react to their moves for the sake of the main force. Now that the Heavenly Phoenix Continent is strong enough to directly resist them, Lin Zhao has no intention of holding back.

Since the opponent used certain methods to increase the difficulty of the Tower of Despair, why can't we use the same methods?

The results of Su Bai's challenge were revealed some time later.

Sixty-three floors!

It has two more layers than Lan Yingying's.

However, this result did not satisfy the disciples of Tianhuang Continent. They all understood that Su Bai was once the strongest among the younger generation of Tianhuang Continent, while Lan Yingying could only rank third among the four allied factions.

It's like comparing their superior horse to the opponent's inferior horse, and they only have a slight advantage, which makes it hard to feel at ease.

Lin Zhao and the others understood that the main reason for this was that Lan Yingying had increased the difficulty, but people from other continents didn't know that. At this moment, they all looked at the Tianhuang Continent with some strange expressions.

"Isn't Su Bai supposed to be the number one genius of the Heavenly Phoenix Continent? Lan Yingying has already climbed to the sixty-first floor, and he's only sixty-three. I never thought that the third-ranked member of the Four Alliances could actually compete with the number one in the Heavenly Phoenix Continent. The Heavenly Phoenix Continent is really getting worse every day."

"What a disgrace! What's the point of competing? Why not just hand over the position of the First Continent? That would save our Heavenly Phoenix Plane from losing face time and time again in the Plane Competition!"

"..."

Upon hearing this, the people of Thunder Palace frowned, but Lin Zhao raised his hand to stop them from taking any further action.

"There's no need to bother with a bunch of mad dogs who only bark down there." Lin Zhao glanced at the group. "After all, they haven't even seen the view from the 40th floor, how would they know the difficulty of floors above the 60th?"

The disciples from other continents were speechless, but Jiang Yan spoke up in a sarcastic tone: "Then we'll see how much higher the final score of the Heavenly Phoenix Continent will be than the mad dog in your eyes. Let's make sure that in the end, it's not even as good as a dog."

In the early years, the Tianhuang Continent's dominance over other continents had long been a source of extreme discontent among the disciples of those continents, though they dared not speak out. As their strength grew with the resources allocated to them by the Tianhuang Continent, their appetites also grew. First, they interfered in the Continental Grand Competition, then they even introduced new rules for the competition. Finally, after the Tianhuang Continent's inexplicable decline in recent years, these continents began to harbor the idea of ​​taking its place.

The ambition and atmosphere of the subcontinent fostered a sense of resentment and envy among the younger generation towards those born on the Tianhuang Continent.

During the long process of continental division, no subcontinent remembers when they initially relied on the Tianhuang Continent to resist the demon race and to obtain resources from the Tianhuang Continent as its subjects.

Especially seeing the once-dominant continent fall to the same level as them, they could feel a sense of satisfaction while cursing.

That was the sense of accomplishment that feudal lords felt when they seized power.

The former king of the world, the Heavenly Phoenix Continent, has fallen from grace. It must be a very lucrative prize, and every subcontinent has the desire to get a share.

To put it bluntly, in their eyes, the Tianhuang Continent is a sick tiger surrounded by wolves. When this tiger is on its last breath, the wolves will not hesitate to swarm it and devour it.

Feeling the malice from all sides and the angry but speechless gazes, Lin Zhao smiled and cupped her hands towards Jiang Yan: "No problem, no problem."

Chen Xinyue's score was soon released, but this time the score made everyone in Tianhuang Continent look even uglier.

Thirty-four points!

Chen Xinyue only climbed to the 34th floor before losing the ability to climb any further?

"Pfft!" A faint chuckle escaped from someone in the crowd.

The ensuing laughter engulfed everyone from the Heavenly Phoenix Continent like a tidal wave. The disciples of the Heavenly Phoenix Continent blushed, but no one dared to speak again.

"That's it, that's it, that's it? What are you still being so stubborn about? Are we mad dogs and what are they? Sick cats? Hahahaha!"

"How embarrassing! A 'Destined Phoenix Maiden' indeed! If you can't handle the game, don't play. If you're bad, practice more. What are you pretending for?!"

"Hahahaha, the 32nd floor! Some of the strongest beings from the third-tier subcontinents have higher scores than her, right? No wonder the Heavenly Phoenix Continent was in such a hurry to make a move, turns out they were eager to embarrass themselves! Hahahahahaha!"

Lin Zhao gave Ning Wengui a few instructions, and then slowly walked into the Qiongyuan Tower amidst the expectant gazes of the crowd.

Before entering the tower, Lin Zhao glanced at Mo Zun with a mocking look in his eyes.

Even Mo Zun, who seemed to have victory firmly in his grasp at a glance, had a hint of uncertainty.

He turned to Lan Yingying and asked, "Can you maintain the level of difficulty you've increased?"

Lan Yingying nodded: "Of course, I increased the difficulty of the Tower of Exhaustion by two times!"

Otherwise, with the combined abilities of Su Bai and Chen Xinyue, their score would be at least 150.

Mo Zun thought for a moment, then sneered and said loudly, "I suppose Lin Zhao is just putting on a show. I don't believe she can even make it to the fiftieth floor under these conditions!"
