Huang Yun's expression dimmed, and a trace of sorrow appeared on his face. "During the campaign when Heaven Mandate Peak joined the assault against the Iron Blood Sect, they fell into a carefully prepared ambush. Senior Brother Li Yunxiao sacrificed himself to ensure the safe retreat of our disciples."
Li Yun fell silent for a moment before letting out a quiet sigh. "What a pity for such a remarkable genius."
With Li Yunxiao's talent, it was almost certain that he would have reached the Yuanhai Realm in the future and become a pillar of Heaven Mandate Peak. Yet fate had cut his path short far too early.
At that moment, the voice of the Heaven Mandate Peak Head echoed across the space.
"Those who have obtained a spot to enter the Heavenly Spirit Thunder Pool, step forward."
Li Yun moved out from the crowd. Alongside him were two other disciples, one male and one female.
