"What?"
"All those demon races have escaped from the small world?"
Man Ba's scalp tingled, and a layer of goosebumps rose on his skin.
"I'll settle the score with you later."
Tu Mie let out a heavy snort and flew directly into the small world.
He had felt it before.
The auras of all the demon races in the small world had disappeared.
Although he didn't know what had happened.
He had to find out.
Upon entering the small world.
His soul power covered the entire small world.
He sensed the auras of one hundred and eight demon races.
Besides that.
The auras of hundreds of thousands of demon powerhouses had vanished.
With a thought.
He gathered the one hundred and eight demon trialists.
His eyes were full of anger: "Do you know what happened before? Why did all those demon races disappear?"
The pressure of a Ninth-level Demon Emperor was immense.
But for Chen Nan, it was bearable.
After all, a Ninth-level Demon Emperor was comparable to a Human Supreme.
Moreover, he had killed Ninth-level Demon Emperors before.
"Reporting to the Great Emperor, we do not know what happened." A Fifth-level Demon Emperor clutched his chest and said, "I was fighting a Demon Emperor just now, and suddenly that Demon Emperor disappeared."
"Yes, they inexplicably vanished before our eyes."
Wen Chuxue and Huang Jin also appeared beside Tu Mie.
Wen Chuxue said, "Great Emperor, could it be that there's a problem with the order of the small world, and those demon races tore through the void and escaped?"
Tu Mie glanced at the sky: "It's not impossible."
"Great Emperor, it's all Man Ba's fault. If he hadn't deliberately released all the Demon Emperors, things wouldn't have become like this!" Huang Jin said from the side.
"Since all the demon races in this small world have escaped, this trial will come to an end!" Tu Mie's eyes exuded a terrifying killing intent: "I will settle the score with Man Ba."
Afterward.
Everyone left the small world.
But Man Ba and his son had vanished without a trace.
Upon inquiry, they learned that the father and son had already fled.
This situation was understandable.
Even though Man Ba was the third-ranked super powerhouse among the eight hundred commanders.
He had indirectly allowed the demon powerhouses imprisoned in the small world to escape.
Given Tu Mie's personality, how could he let him off easily?
To put it bluntly.
To survive.
They had to escape.
"Find them, no matter what, find the whereabouts of Man Ba and his son."
"He caused trouble and wants to run away?"
"Hmph!"
"They can't go anywhere but hell."
Tu Mie erupted with terrifying killing intent.
Then he said, "Commander Wen, the assessment continues."
With that, he disappeared into the void.
He had been in seclusion, cultivating.
If he hadn't sensed the disappearance of the demon races in the small world, he wouldn't have come out of seclusion.
Wen Chuxue looked at the one hundred and eight demon powerhouses and said in a pleasant voice, "Among you, has anyone killed a Demon Emperor?"
Bao Ba spoke, "Commander Wen, the four of us brothers each killed a Demon Emperor." He then took out the corpse of a Fifth-level Demon Emperor from his storage artifact.
Wen Chuxue nodded with satisfaction.
This assessment had only lasted for a little over half an hour, and they had already killed a Fifth-level Demon Emperor.
This was a very good result.
Duan Yunchuan, San Yan.
And Chen Nan also released the demon corpses they had obtained.
Of course.
Others had also obtained Demon Emperors.
However, their levels were around Third-level.
In terms of the assessment scores.
Chen Nan ranked first.
Bao Ba and the other two were tied for second.
"According to the rules, the one who ranks first can choose a hundred thousand demon races first."
"Others will choose their soldiers according to their rankings, to train and cultivate them."
"And the third round of assessment is very simple."
"Your fifty teams will have a tactical competition in one year's time."
"The top ten can be promoted to commanders."
The rules were as simple as ever.
However.
It also showed that demons were not all simple-minded, brute-force creatures.
After all.
As commanders.
They would be leading troops into battle.
This round tested their ability to lead and fight.
However...
Chen Nan frowned deeply after hearing this.
He only had ten years in the demon realm.
In these ten years, he not only had to unify the demon realm.
And find the sacred medicine of the demon realm.
He also had to find the Demon Spirit Orb.
But based on the current situation.
It would take hundreds of years to unify the demon realm step by step.
It would be fine under normal circumstances.
But the problem now was.
His daughter's condition couldn't wait that long.
Directly let the people of Mangshan attack the Ten Thousand Demon Cave?
Start a war directly?
This method was indeed direct.
However.
Unifying the entire demon realm through war would definitely take longer.
It would even be a drain on resources and cause the common people of the demon realm to suffer.
Obviously.
No matter which method.
He couldn't unify the demon realm within ten years.
Unless he could become a being above Ninth-level Demon Emperors overnight.
Otherwise, it would be impossible to defeat seventeen Ninth-level Demon Emperors.
Suddenly.
Chen Nan shivered.
Have I fallen into some misunderstanding?
Why should unifying the demon realm rely on overwhelming strength?
I am human.
The biggest difference between humans and demons is that humans are accustomed to using their brains.
To defeat opponents with intelligence.
Thinking of this.
Chen Nan had an idea.
He thought of a way to unify the demon realm in a short period of time.
And this method required the use of the Immortal Mansion.
To make the Immortal Mansion appear in the demon realm.
And then produce a series of treasures.
This way.
It could completely attract the covetous attention of the seventeen Ninth-level Demon Emperors.
As long as they entered the Immortal Mansion.
Wouldn't he be able to control their lives?
Thinking of this.
Chen Nan was extremely excited.
This method was feasible.
It would allow him to gather seventeen Ninth-level Demon Emperors in a short period of time.
And capture them all in one fell swoop.
However.
This matter still required meticulous planning.
And the immediate priority was to select a hundred thousand demon powerhouses and complete the third round of assessment.
Then enter the Heavenly Demon Pool to improve his cultivation.
------
Afterward, Chen Nan went to another preliminary selection site.
As the number one ranked player, he had to choose one hundred thousand powerhouses from millions of demon races.
Upon learning that Chen Nan would be selecting soldiers first.
The demon powerhouses' minds collapsed.
They all lowered their heads, silently chanting, "Don't pick me, don't pick me."
No choice.
They absolutely did not want to follow a First-level Demon Emperor.
After all, even if Chen Nan became a commander.
There were still differences in strength among the eight hundred commanders.
If they could follow a powerful commander.
Their lives and benefits would definitely be much better.
But if they followed a weakling, they would have no sense of existence at all.
Chen Nan naturally saw through their thoughts.
A meaningful smile appeared on his face.
With a gesture of his hands.
Over ten thousand demon stones flew out.
Then he formed a hand seal and set up a gravity formation.
He wanted to use this situation to test the perseverance and strength of the demon races.
And to select the strongest hundred thousand demon races for his own use.
"This guy is actually a formation master?"
The moment the formation enveloped them.
Everyone looked at Chen Nan with burning eyes.
And longing.
If they could become his subordinates.
It would probably be awesome, right?
