The others who had been around this person looked at them as if they were thinking the same thing, but not a single one of them said a thing.
They just did the same thing as before where they waited for the spirit beasts to reach their defenses and then slowly wore them down.
Since there were so many spirit beasts, it actually worked in their favour.
After all, the statues were only that big, so it wasn’t as if there were that many spirit beasts that could attack at the same time. The ones that were in front charged while the ones in the back waited for their turn.
This made things much more manageable for those that were defending.
They even had the opportunity to rotate defenders since there were so many of them, which made it even easier for them to deal with these spirit beasts.
There were a few casualties since they were fighting for their lives, but it wasn’t as if there was anything serious. There were just a few people who made mistakes while fighting and ended up dying, but it wasn’t as if they would actually die in this tower of trials.
They could only blame themselves if they died in a place like this.
Just like this, they were able to slowly wear down the waves of spirit beasts that came at them.
It didn’t seem like anything was going to go wrong, but…it almost seemed like it was too easy. It was far too easy for these people who had expected it to be much harder than this.
It was almost too easy that they couldn’t help feeling that this was some kind of trap.
“Should it really be just like this?”
“I don’t know, but at the very least they should be stronger, right?”
“It feels almost easier since we’re already used to dealing with spirit beasts of this level. Could it be that it’ll get harder with the next wave?”
Conversations like this were happening around all of the different statues.
It seemed like everyone was thinking the same thing.
Even the Love Sect and Demon Palm Sect group thought the same.
So no one dared to let their guards down as they took their time in dealing with the spirit beasts of this fifth wave. All of them wanted to make sure that they were in tip top shape when the next wave came.
In a sense, this became rather boring because it was just methodically taking care of the spirit beasts that came at them. There didn’t seem to be anything special about how they dealt with the spirit beasts.
It certainly would have been boring for the people watching if they weren’t related to them.
That was the situation for the elders of the sects in the square watching this.
Since there were so many disciples that were involved in this one trial, it was the one that was on the center screen.
There were elders that were disappointed when they saw their disciples make mistakes and drop out. However, other than that, it didn’t seem like many of them had any reactions to what was happening.
The expressions on their faces made it clear that they were thinking the same thing.
They were all waiting for the trial to suddenly change it up, so they were worried about their disciples.
Just like this, the fifth wave was taken care of and the doors opened again.
There were only three hundred doors that opened this time and the aura that came from them was stronger than before.
However…
“Is this really it?”
That was what everyone thought when they saw the spirit beasts come out.
Low Foundation Realm, that was what these spirit beasts were at.
There wasn’t a single spirit beast that was beyond the Low Foundation Realm.
For them, these spirit beasts didn’t pose any threat at all, even if there were three hundred of them.
It really felt like their expectations had been betrayed because of this…
They just didn’t know how to feel about all of this…
Well, it didn’t matter how they felt about this since there was only one thing that they had to do right now. So everyone just steeled their minds and focused on the task in front of them.
All at the same time, they felt that this wasn’t it…
…
“This trial is just too easy, isn’t it?”
That was what was the general consensus when the tenth wave came.
Everyone knew that since this was the tenth wave, it should be a special wave since it was the midpoint of this trial. There was no doubt that there would be something special waiting for them in this tenth wave.
But all that came were just ten beasts in the High Foundation Realm.
While these beasts were stronger than most of the disciples, that didn’t mean that they were able to do much. That was because they were completely outnumbered and they had to face the defenses that had been slowly built up with each wave.
The walls that surrounded the statues were now very firm and it was hard for the spirit beasts to break through, even if they were in the High Foundation Realm.
The moment that they failed to break through, they were completely surrounded by the disciples.
Since the spirit beasts were stronger than them, the disciples didn’t take any unnecessary risks and fought in a different manner from before. Instead of charging at them like they had done before, they attacked from afar and slowly wore them down.
With how many disciples there were left, the spirit beasts were completely surrounded and attacks rained down on them. Even if they wanted to attack in one direction, they would be immediately pelted by attacks from the other directions.
These attacks would hinder them and slow them down, so they wouldn’t be able to reach the disciples that were on that side. The disciples on that side were able to easily move out of the way before the spirit beasts reached them.
With the way that it was going, it was almost as if they were bullying these spirit beasts with numbers…
This didn’t seem like a real fight, but rather like a group of people bullying weak spirit beasts…even if the spirit beasts weren’t that weak in the first place.
Even the disciples couldn’t help feeling that this was wrong…
But that didn’t stop them from continuing to send their attacks raining down on the spirit beasts. The spirit beasts eventually succumbed to these attacks and they fell flat to the ground.
As soon as one spirit beast was taken care of, the disciples of that one group would move to the other spirit beasts and send attacks raining down on them as well.
It was only when there were two spirit beasts left that everyone slowed down their attacks.
They were thinking about the next waves, so they were using these spirit beasts to buy time. That meant that these spirit beasts had to suffer a fate that was worse than the other spirit beasts as they were deliberately kept alive.
They were attacked to make sure that they couldn’t do anything, but they weren’t attacked enough for them to die.
So they were just kept in a constant state of pain.
It was like they were torturing these spirit beasts…
But everyone did this so they could rest up before the next wave started.
Everyone was feeling disappointed because of how easy all of this seemed, but there were people that noticed something about all of this.
Namely, Love Sect and Demon Palm Sect group.
That was because from the very beginning, they had only been watching everything happen.
They might have sent the people whose soul fragments they controlled to fight with the others, but they never made a move themselves. It was as if they wouldn’t make a move unless things became very serious.
But what they noticed from watching this whole time was that everyone was getting better at working with each other.
At first, there had been some miscommunication and some unwillingness to work with each other because they were from different groups. But as time passed, it seemed that everyone forgot about this and just decided to work together.
It was as if they had slowly been trained into working together…
It was as if this trial was nothing more than a training session to teach them about cooperation.
But if that was the case…why would they do something like this?
The more that they thought about it, the less sense all of this made…
There wasn’t a single person that was able to figure out just what the real reason for this trial that involved all of them was for…
Eventually, everyone recovered and they took care of the two spirit beasts that remained.
As soon as these spirit beasts fell, it was as if there were looks of relief that were on their faces. It was as if they were happy that they no longer had to suffer from this torture anymore, so they were happy to die.
This made the disciples feel a bit bad since they were the ones that tortured these spirit beasts, but they didn’t have time to think too much about it since the doors were opening again.
There were three hundred doors that opened and the aura that came from these spirit beasts…
They were still in the Low Foundation Realm, with just a few Mid Foundation Realm Beasts among them.
It almost didn’t seem like they were any stronger than before…
