The academy elder's expression grew grave; this was the reason behind his earlier hesitation.
Agreeing to this duel would result in the death of many people, all of whom were outstanding among humanity. On the other hand, refusing and going straight to battle would lead to even greater casualties and destruction. It was a true dilemma.
"You often venture to Yun Meng Swamp to hunt demons, but you have yet to reach its core depths. The demons residing in the deepest parts of Yun Meng Swamp are endowed with rare bloodlines and shocking talents. This Bull Demon, for instance, is unlike ordinary demons; it carries a golden bloodline. Therefore, if you are to fight next, you must consider this carefully. I will not force anyone; everything will proceed strictly on a voluntary basis."
The elder addressed the Bai Lu Academy disciples. Those who had been confident earlier now appeared subdued.
