the gate to the ten thousand dragon nest slowly opened. the bridge settled down, and the floating blocks fused into a single solid pathway.
at least thirty percent of the dragon domain’s experts had fallen. the rest were covered with blood, and some were missing limbs. however, the eyes of all the survivors were sharp and firm.
seeing them, the dragonblood warriors couldn’t help but feel some sympathy. these warriors had proven themselves in the crucible of battle. this victory marked their rise—a transformation that unlocked their limitless potential.
“we won! we’ve earned the approval of our ancestors! we’re no longer trash!” mo yang roared, raising his spear high. “we’ll show our ancestors our unbending spine. we are ready to spill blood for the dragon race’s glory!”
the dragon domain’s experts echoed his cry, their voices unified in triumph. the patriarchs watched, deeply moved. finally, true successors of the dragon domain had emerged.
meanwhile, the race leaders shared mixed emotions. they were proud of the new generation, but they also felt sad. they were aware that their era was over; the future now belonged to the young.
at this moment, long chen and the others also crossed the bridge.
“thank you,” mo yang said, looking at long chen gratefully.
perhaps others didn’t understand why mo yang would thank long chen, but the other monstrous heavenly geniuses knew.
long chen and the dragonblood warriors had not participated just now, showing that they had neither selfish motives toward them nor the desire to control the dragon race.
this bloody bridge battle was, in truth, a test to determine the future valley master of sovereign dragon valley. the patriarchs were too old, and the race leaders’ powers were waning. the responsibility of leadership would fall on the next generation.
all of them wanted to lead the dragon race as the valley master. yet, this leadership wasn’t about fame or status—it was about raising the banner of the dragon race and charging into battle until their final breaths. they would become the dragon race’s eternal glory.
smiling, long chen patted mo yang’s shoulder and said, “we’re all brothers. in the future, i don’t want to hear another thank you.”
the dragon domain’s experts were all incredibly moved by this. from initially looking down on long chen, they now revered him. being called a brother by someone of his stature felt like a supreme honor.
hearing that, the dragon race experts were revitalized. if there was no danger to their lives, then they could freely challenge the gates.
“each barrier has unique dragon runes,” long chen continued. “try forming a resonance with them. if the rune responds, it means the treasure inside is connected to your branch of the dragon race.”
“i... i can sense it!” cried out one heavenly genius.
feeling a powerful summons, this genius charged into one of the barriers without hesitation.
“wait!” long chen shouted.
before anyone could stop this impulsive genius, he was flung back violently, coughing blood as he collapsed on the ground.
long chen was speechless but continued to explain. “wait for me to finish speaking. not just anyone can challenge these barriers. before challenging them, place a drop of your core essence blood onto it. if the dragon rune protrudes, it means you can challenge it. if there is no reaction, it means you are not qualified to do so.”
“i’ll try it,” chi wufeng said, stepping forward.
“you just fought an intense battle...”
“it’s fine. i have a special constitution and have already recovered to eighty percent. i’ll scout things for everyone.”
chi wufeng approached a barrier, flames flickering within it. even from the outside, it was clear this barrier housed something related to fire. carefully, he placed a drop of his essence blood on it.
to everyone’s shock, the essence blood was rejected.
“what?!”
gasps of disbelief rippled through the crowd. even someone as powerful as chi wufeng wasn’t qualified to challenge this trial?
