"Ha!"
Just as the tree roots grew to a certain extent, the contestant suddenly shouted loudly.
He seemed to burst forth with aura, like the steam from a boiling kettle, shooting towards the sky.
At the same time, the scepter by his side immediately released an even brighter green light.
The light now shrouded his entire body.
His aura surged even more tumultuously!
They complemented each other, enhancing the effect!
Instantly, the embedded Black Stone in front of him cracked with a snapping sound, shaking as it separated from the ground.
Everyone held their breath at once.
This was a stone weighing twelve thousand catties; was he really about to lift it?
While they were still in doubt.
The next second.
The ground suddenly shook as if an earthquake was imminent.
However, everyone soon steadied their spirits because the shaking, although severe, was not widespread; it was just a very small area around the contestant.
