Chapter 537: Racing Moment, Tianyuan's Fastest Gold Content (4K)
"Tianyuan City's strong people have finally arrived."
Someone muttered.
It was no longer a secret that the Lord of Tianyuan City had chosen this Secret Realm entrance.
An elite of Tianyuan was always stationed here.
Everyone was quite looking forward to the arrival of the Lord of Tianyuan City.
The Legendary Lord, who had created miracles time and again, indeed came personally, only...
"Have the warriors from Tianyuan City come in quite a large number?"
The Star River had already flown near the Secret Realm, and people saw the warriors it carried—numbering immensely.
Hundreds of elites!
We're here to explore the World Secret Realm, not to go to war, guys.
The Lords didn't mind bringing more Fourth-order elites, using this opportunity for them to train and transform. With one more person, their territories might eventually gain a genius with a legendary stature in the future.
However, the Secret Realm was dangerous and full of lethal traps; even the Legendary Realm might not protect so many Fourth-order Strongmen.
Don't you see that Reconnaissance Corps openly set their limits at seven members per legendary leader? Any more? Even the master Fourth-order wannabes aren't foolish.
Moreover...
Bringing their elites or younger relatives was just incidental; the Legendary Lords were competing for their own fortunes. In such a situation, why would they go to great lengths to protect third or fourth-order Professionals? That would be putting the cart before the horse.
That's what people thought, but they just muttered among themselves.
How the Lord of Tianyuan City chose to act was his own affair; they just couldn't quite understand.
"Don't understand? That's right! The Lord of Tianyuan City must have his reasons for doing so!"
"Do you guys think there's a possibility that... Tianyuan City brought many Legendary Strongmen on this trip? Like, if there are dozens of Legends in Tianyuan City, a ratio of Legends to non-Legends reaching one to ten is entirely possible!"
"Dude, wake up, even the die-hard fans of the Lord of Tianyuan City wouldn't dare think that! Can your reasoning be a bit logical?"
The speaker chuckled; he was just looking for topics to liven up the atmosphere.
He himself didn't truly believe any such improbably possibility existed.
However, someone present felt that this possibility might indeed exist.
Lord Linglong reflected, "Having dozens of Legends sounds ridiculous at first and is indeed super ridiculous, but if it's about Tianyuan, this freak, well, it's not impossible!"
Tianyuan was someone she had watched grow up! (Proud.jpg)
Although she had initially faced defeat in the Secret Realm of Challenge while competing against Tianyuan at the same level,
What of it?
"I once narrowly lost to Tianyuan"
She had also visited Tianyuan City, and even together with Tianyuan, had defeated a massive wave of monsters.
At that time, there were just a handful of Legends in Tianyuan City, but they were already capable of defeating dozens of Monster Legends, creating the miracle of overwhelming the Monster Overlord.
Now, after all this time, the Legends of Tianyuan City from back then have become World-class strongmen. Saying that Tianyuan had nurtured dozens of Legends, well, that isn't an impossibility.
"Besides, that guy Tianyuan is extremely cautious; he wouldn't have brought the core forces of his territory unless he was 200% certain."
...
Compared to other forces with exploration teams of a few to a dozen, or at most around forty people, the Reconnaissance Corps from Tianyuan City on the Star River indeed seemed much larger in number.
Even setting aside the Legendary Strongmen, the Fourth-order elites he assembled were themselves capable of confronting Legends.
Other Fourth-orders couldn't lead a dozen Assistants or a thousand elites to resonate with the Army Spirit, they basically had no chance against a Legend. Tianyuan's elites? While it's tough for them to confront a Legend alone, forming a small team would suffice.
The reason there hadn't been a super genius who could topple a Legend with just a Fourth-order body was because all the geniuses had stepped into the Legendary Realm.
Those still struggling at the Fourth-order Limit were just considered 'mediocre.'
At best, they were within the top two hundred or the top one hundred on the Dragon Gate Ranking.
Mu Yuan exchanged greetings with the acquaintances he knew—Lords Linglong, Wuji—without much conversation.
The Secret Realm was about to activate the second stage. At this point, the Legendary Lords aiming for fortunes were all making serious preparations.
Time ticked by slowly.
Mu Yuan didn't arrive early, only joining the last batch of explorers a few minutes before Yisi's "divination prophecy."
He just had confidence in Yisi.

If quick, he only needed to wait a few minutes; if slow, perhaps just over half an hour.
But the passage of time seemed particularly slow. The opening of the Secret Realm was expanding bit by bit, yet it hadn't transformed significantly.
In the meantime, explorers kept jumping out of the Secret Realm.
Some were in utter disarray; others could hardly conceal their joy. The latter had evidently reaped substantial rewards inside the Secret Realm.
At this time, no one paid attention to these explorers; pairs of eyes were fixed on the gradually spreading fissure of the Secret Realm.
Suddenly,
"Buzz—"
As if some invisible ripple swept through, and akin to a crack in space, the portal of the Secret Realm, as if torn apart by some immense force, suddenly expanded from about thirty meters to forty meters. The next moment it swelled once more, swelling to sixty, seventy, eighty meters.
An eighty-meter-long fissure in the Secret Realm, imbued with golden twilight, sparkled before everyone.
"The gate to the Legendary Realm of the World Secret Realm has opened!"
...
Around the Secret Realm, each Legendary Strongman present held their breath briefly after a silent couple of instantances, then a Lone Legendary soaring with the Power of Heaven and Earth surged skyward.
