Shu Yuan was happy that Gu Yanlong accepted his bet. After all, he was certain that Human Race wouldn’t be able to best his own Race! He didn’t like Gu Yanlong supporting a Human Race out of all races out there! Now that Gu Yanlong accepted his bet, his disciple would have an easy time in the future!“You accepted the bet! no running out of it later! Got it?” Shu Yuan said with a smirk on his face. “I will never go back on my words!” Gu Yanlong said indifferently. He already knew how Shu Yuan’s way of thought, and thus he chose to believe in the Human Race cultivator! He felt it before when he first saw Yi Tianyun and he believed that Yi Tianyun would be able to surpass the Tree Race cultivator no problem!“Well, let us see what happened next!” Shu Yuan smiled in satisfaction as he got what he wanted out of Gu Yanlong. He already thought that he was winning so there was nothing he should worry about!Meanwhile, Yi Tianyun wasn’t aware of what was happening outside of the Great Array as he kept absorbing the Star Power inside the Great Array, converting the energy inside his body at an alarming rate. He could feel his power rising as he kept absorbing it without any consideration to others. He didn’t see any problem in his body as his body was like a boundless sea, and accommodating so much Star Power didn’t really affect his body in a negative way. While others began to suffer from the changes that happened to their body, Yi Tianyun didn’t feel any pain at all. As time went by, cultivators began to collapse as the day began to change. They couldn’t even hold on until the next day as their body couldn’t handle the transformation. It meant that they couldn’t join the Heavenly Edict Divine Territory! In fact, they wouldn’t be able to join any other God Territory as they also had the same exact requirements. However, Yi Tianyun and Lei Zhengyu survived the next day. Shu Xiong and Shu Hand, the cultivator from the Tree Race also passed to the next day, but they didn’t seem to plan on stopping any time soon as they pursued more power!“I thought they would only last for two days, but they stubbornly persisted!” Shu Yuan said as he shook his head in disdain. Gu Yanlong didn’t say anything as he continued to watch over Yi Tianyun and Lei Zhengyu quietly. On the third day, more people failed. A total of 340 Cultivator entered the assessment, but only around 30 people remained inside the Great Array. As for those who already regained their consciousness, they left the Great Array without saying anything as they were quite ashamed that they couldn’t last for three days!They were definitely shocked as they were bound to be hailed as a god in the Mortal Territory, but they couldn’t hold a candle to the God Territory cultivator! It was definitely a heavy blow to their ego! The Third Day passed and Yi Tianyun still persisted without any problem and so did Lei Zhengyu and the two Tree Race cultivators! Following the Fourth Day, more cultivators began to fall, but Yi Tianyun and Lei Zhengyu still stood strong! Shu Yuan’s expression started to change. He began to have a bad feeling as the two Human Race that he despised so much lasted this long! It was also because he noticed that Shu Xiong seemed to have a hard time holding on any further as his body began to shake!“What is this? How could those two hold out for so long?” Shu Xiong opened his eyes from his meditation and still saw Yi Tianyun and Lei Zhengyu meditating. Shu Xiong gritted his teeth as he tried to endure another day. He didn’t want to lose to a Human Race and if they lost, they would be extremely ashamed of themselves! On the fifth day, Shu Xiong screamed as he could no longer withstand the transformation to his body and fainted. But as he already survived for 4 days inside the Great Array, he would be welcomed to Heavenly Edict Divine Territory no problem. Meanwhile, Shu Yuan’s face completely darkened, his heart beat really fast as he was furious of Shu Xiong for his inability to withstand the Star Energy longer than a mere Human Race cultivator! “I still have one more cultivator in there!” Shu Yuan said as he gritted his teeth nervously. They gambled on which race would be able to last the longest, so it didn’t have to be both of them anyway! Shu Yuan prayed that Shu Han wouldn’t lose so quickly like Shu Xiong did! It took around ten years for any disciple to receive a Secret Art from a master, although ten years wasn’t necessarily a long period of time, it would be better if they could get it faster! Gu Yanlong looked at Yi Tianyun and Lei Zhengyu, but he was especially interested in Yi Tianyun as he felt that Yi Tianyun could hold on for days! At the very least both of them seemed more stable than Shu Han! Soon after the 6th day started, Shu Han’s body shook badly and he fainted. The bet was over as both Shu Han and Shu Xiong had fallen. On the other hand, both Yi Tianyun and Lei Zhengyu still stood strong! “Team Leader Shu Yuan, I am sorry but it seems that you have lost the bet!” Gu Yanlong said as he smiled victoriously. He didn’t expect both Human Race cultivators would persist so much longer than the Tree Race, but nevertheless he still won! “Alright, I will stand on my word and give you my token!” Shu Yuan said coldly and threw a token towards Gu Yanlong. Shu Yuan immediately left the scene after that without even checking up on his fellow race. Instead, Shu Yuan looked at Yi Tianyun and Lei Zhengyu’s face intensely as he ought to remember their faces in the future!Gu Yanlong watched as Shu Yuan left but didn’t say a thing. He still had to see how long Yi Tianyun would last inside the Great Array before he stopped. Finally, after the 6th Day end, Lei Zhengyu began to sway and finally fell on the 7th Day! “You have persisted for 6 days!” Gu Yanlong said to Lei Zhengyu. He nodded as his eyes were bright with anticipation. It was clear that he got a good recruit this time! At the 7th Day, the cultivators has already dwindled down to almost nothing, as only less than 5 cultivators remained inside the Great Array now. It also meant that Lei Zhengyu had squeezed himself into the top 10 recruits in Gu Yanlong’s area! No one would doubt a human race after this!Now, the 5 cultivators who were still holding out inside the Great Array would receive massive power as their physique would be perfected by the Star Power!Yi Tianyun soon opened his eyes and looked around. He finally noticed that only three other cultivators were left inside the Great Array.“There are only three left!” Yi Tianyun said with a smile on his face and he closed his eyes again as he continued to meditate and devour the Star Energy that the Great Array gave.
