Meanwhile, one after another, more and more Cultivators from the Third Sequence stepped onto the arena to initiate their challenges.
In each major group, there were nearly a dozen matches happening simultaneously.
Most of the time, the challenges put up by the Third Sequence Cultivators ended in failure, with only the occasional one or two managing a successful upset.
Yet even so, those who had turned the tables swiftly became the target of successive challenges, seen as easy marks by others.
One battle after another, with each passing moment, someone was being eliminated.
For Cultivators like Lu Qingshan, who were seated in the First Sequence, these intense battles had no impact on them.
They merely needed to watch the battles calmly.
As dusk fell, the first round of the elimination matches officially ended, with the pace so fast it was hard to imagine.
And now, out of ten thousand competitors, only a thousand remained.
