Outside the battlefield:
The factions of the Myriad Emperor World had different reactions as they watched the battle. Although the war only started recently, two top contenders were already eliminated.
During most battles, the Heaven Mystery Pavillion would release lists and information about the top contender. However, they offended Wang Wei in this generation after Old Chu divined a future for Di Tian.
And after Wang Wei visited them for his Supreme Outlaw Trial, they closed their gate and decided not to interfere with this generation. As such, other factions made lists and predictions.
However, regardless of who made a list, people like Huang Yuan and Xiao Songxi would enter the top 20. However, now, these two were eliminated, soliciting different reactions from people.
The Loose Cultivation Alliance was not surprised by this result. Although they were unhappy, many people predicted this outcome. After all, they knew most of Huang Yuan's achievement was the result of the Life and Death Book.
A few people managed to predict Fan Qianhan would be his downfall. Huang Yuan had too much hatred in his heart. Love and hate are often interchangeable. He once loved her beyond words he could describe. So, once she betrayed him, all his love turned into hatred.
Many cultivators of the alliance suggested to Huang Yuan that he should kill her instead of maltreating her to such an extent. They believed as long as he did this, he would perfect and sublimate his Dao Heart.
Sadly, he refused to listen, and this led to his downfall.
As such, after seeing his downfall at Fan Qianhan's hands, they could only sigh this was retribution. The upper echelons of the alliance only regretted they lost the Life and Death Book. Although the book was technically their property, they would not dare ask the Dao Opening Sect for it.
Xiao Songxi's downfall elicited a similar reaction–but only for the people of the Baishe Clan. They knew from the Star Stage that Xiao Songxi had a minuscule chance of winning this battle. Unfortunately, to their disappointment, Xiao Songxi did not even begin his plan before someone eliminated him.
The other Sea Race Clans were sad as they had many expectations for Xiao Songxi. Although their race has been prosperous, they still cannot compare to humans because of their lack of an Eternal Emperor.
So, they hoped to cultivate one in this generation full of destiny and luck. Unfortunately, few talented Heaven Chosens appeared in their Sea Race. <any people wanted to count on Yi Lianchang, but the latter died during the Clean-Up.
Meanwhile, Xiao Songxi was half-human. Although he purified his bloodline and was now a full-blood Baishe Clan, many people still viewed him as human. Regardless, they had no better choice but to count on him.
Unfortunately, he failed. So, as they looked at him lying on the floor, they could only sigh in disappointment.
Meanwhile, the demon race was both happy and worried. They were delighted by the might displayed by their Venerable Chieft. Simultaneously, they feared the other races would gang up on him and eliminate him.
After all, no race would want the demon race to have an Eternal Emperor. Although the situation of the Myriad Emperor World is no longer the same as the Ancient Emperor Era, where Eternals could do as they pleased, it would still bring devastating catastrophe to other races if the demon race was the final winner of this generation's battle.
No one wanted a repeat of the Golden Ape Emperor or the Heaven-Devouring Emperor. So, many people were secretly watching the demon race, scheming how they would react once an Eternal Emperor appeared on the Northern Continent.
Heaven Will Battlefield, Northern Quadrant:
Mo Xingyun sensed the power of Devour, and it was a unique one from the Baishe Clan. He once studied their clan's bloodline when creating his Heaven Devouring Physique, so he was curious after sensing their clan's unique aura.
His curiosity allowed him to witness the battle between Ao Shen and Xiao Songxi. After the battle ended, Ao Shen detected his gaze and looked at him. The latter picked Xiao Songxi's body before returning to the demon race's side and activating the formation to hide all these pesky sights.
Mo Xingyun frowned as he felt a slight greed flash in Ao Shen's eyes. Although the latter swiftly controlled his emotion and removed it, he still detected it.
'What is this guy planning?' His intuition told him another variable might have opened up.
'Although Xiao Songxi is a waster, this generation is full of talent,' he commented. Compared to his generation, most of the Heaven Chosens of this era were on par with him–if not better. Given a chance, most of these people can become Eternal Emperors.
