There are over a billion transmigrators in Battle Through the Heavens.

If all else fails, I'll just take Brother Xiao Yan back to the Ancient Clan.

This place is far too dangerous; one wrong move and you could lose your life.

Xiao Yan overheard Xun'er's thoughts.

This made Xiao Yan feel very gratified.

Regardless of whether the ancient race has the same strength as in the original story, or whether they have become stronger.

At least, Xun'er's feelings are enough to show how much she cares about me.

"Since we are all students of the inner academy, of course we should stay and fight alongside the academy."

"Besides, this trouble started because of me, so how can I just run away?"

Xiao Yan has just received the inheritance of the Yellow Spring Demon Saint, and his strength is even greater than that of Gu Yuan in the original work.

Naturally, they would not be afraid of mere lizardmen.

More importantly, he wanted to see what the ancient emperor's cave had become.

Is my own Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jade still useful?

"Xun'er will accompany Brother Xiao Yan to face this war."

Seeing that Xiao Yan had made his decision, Xun'er naturally stood on the same side as him without hesitation.

Just then, a teleportation talisman suddenly flew in from afar.

"The message came from the academy's higher-ups, summoning all major forces and students to discuss ways to deal with the lizardmen."

Han Yue took the teleportation talisman, read its contents, and turned to Xiao Yan to speak.

"Let's go take a look together!"

Xiao Yan nodded slightly. This was a good opportunity to see the various forces and powerful figures in the inner academy.

……

Inner courtyard.

In a huge square.

The senior elders sat on the high platform.

Below, thousands of inner court disciples stood in unison, awaiting the elders' instructions.

"Aren't the people from the outer courtyard participating in this battle?"

"What are you thinking? Those lizardmen living under the magma, even the weakest of them are at the peak of the Dou Zong level. How could the people from the outer courtyard possibly get involved?"

"hiss!"

"Lizardmen, are they really that terrifying?"

From time to time, whispers and discussions could be heard from the crowd.

On the high platform, the elders' expressions were increasingly solemn.

The last time we fought the lizardmen was three years ago.

At that time, neither side was particularly strong.

However, the battle was exceptionally fierce.

If it weren't for the anomaly in the ancient emperor's cave that leaked some strange energy that could greatly enhance one's strength, the two sides would never have stopped fighting.

After the ceasefire, the two sides signed a series of agreements.

This includes the inner courtyard and the lizardmen sharing the Heavenly Flame Refining Tower.

The lizardmen will also open the passage to the ancient emperor's cave to the strong in the inner courtyard.

Although it is impossible to enter the ancient emperor's cave without the key.

However, even the slightest leak of information would be of immense benefit to them.

Just as everyone was talking amongst themselves, discussing that they were lizardmen.

Xiao Yan and the others finally arrived here.

As the protagonist who triggered this incident, his arrival naturally attracted the attention of many powerful figures.

This includes the leaders of the seven major powers.

Those renowned figures on the top list.

And the elders on the high platform.

When the crowd saw Xiao Yan arrive, they spontaneously made way for him.

Although this impending war was caused by Xiao Yan.

However, Xiao Yan's strength was still there.

Therefore, ordinary inner court students dare not mock or complain at all.

Even the way they looked at him was filled with awe.

……

"You're Xiao Yan?"

Just as Xiao Yan stepped forward, a person dressed in golden holy armor came up to him, looked at him sharply, and asked.

"Identification".

Xiao Yan was too lazy to ask his name, so he simply sent him an appraisal.

Name: Qin Zhen.

Race: Human.

Gender: Male.

Cultivation level: Comparable to a nine-star Dou Sheng.

Talented Bloodline: None.

Personal Cloth: Gemini Gold Cloth +5.

……

"I am Xiao Yan."

"What do you want?"

Having ascertained the other party's strength and identity, Xiao Yan smiled slightly and asked.

"You killed Luo Tian of my Saint Seiya Alliance, stole the Gold Cloths of Ling Ge and the others, and now you've even started a war between the Inner Court and the Lizardmen, and you still ask me what I want?"

"Don't you think you owe me and everyone in the inner courtyard an explanation?"

Qin Zhen sneered. Others dared not question Xiao Yan, but he was not afraid.

Of all the students in the inner academy, there were only five people he dared not offend.

He wouldn't be afraid of anyone else, even if their strength was comparable to his.

"Ding, congratulations host, you have successfully triggered a god-level choice."

"1: If you face Qin Zhen's provocation, kill him directly. Reward: Blood of the goddess Athena, which can evolve the Gold Cloth."

"2: Subdue Qin Zhen and make him your loyal subordinate. Reward: a full set of golden holy robes, with corresponding inheritance. Wearing it will make you the pinnacle."

"3: Ignore his provocations and treat him like air. Reward: The Art of Feigning Death of the Gods, which can greatly extend your lifespan."

Upon seeing these three options, Xiao Yan couldn't help but laugh and chose the second option.

He hadn't used the master-servant contract function of the system yet.

Now is the perfect time to test it out and see what happens after signing this contract.

"Why should I, Xiao Yan, need to explain my actions to others?"

"If you think you are stronger than me, feel free to give it a try."

With this thought in mind, Xiao Yan looked at Qin Zhen with a provocative gaze and said.

"it is good."

"Then I'll see just how much you, Xiao Yan, are worth, daring to be so arrogant."

Qin Zhen spoke, and his cosmos burned to its limit, his golden holy armor radiating an extremely dazzling light.

Consequently, its shape has also changed, not only covering a wider area of ​​the body.

A pair of golden wings have appeared on its back. The Gold Cloth, which has been strengthened five times, has evolved into the God Cloth, and its power is unimaginable.

"stop!"

"This is not the place for you to fight!"

"In these critical times, instead of focusing on dealing with the lizardmen, you two are fighting each other here. Don't you have any respect for us elders?"

Upon seeing Xiao Yan and Qin Zhen, they looked ready to fight.

The elders on the high platform could no longer remain seated.

You should know that Xiao Yan is someone that Elder Su Qian wants to protect.

They were willing to go to war with the lizardmen, which shows how important Xiao Yan was.

If he were to die at Qin Zhen's hands, wouldn't the Grand Elder be in a panic when he returns?

"Why are you all so nervous, elders?"

"I'm just sparring with him, I won't kill him."

"Junior Brother Xiao Yan, you wouldn't refuse me, would you?"

As Qin Zhen spoke, he looked at Xiao Yan with a cold smile and asked again.

"Of course not, I've been itching to try it myself. Since Senior Qin Zhen is so keen, let's give it a shot!"

As Xiao Yan spoke, he slowly walked forward.

At the same time, his aura was also constantly rising.
