He was just about to stand up when Master Sun suddenly stretched out his hand to stop him and sternly shouted, "Wait! Zhang Yan is still in the array; we might as well wait a bit longer!"
Master Zhu let out a cold snort and sat back heavily.
Master Meng glanced at the sky, silently calculated again in his heart, and shook his head, "Zhang Yan being able to persist until now is due to his understanding of the array's changes. However, with three junior brothers already dead, even if he chooses the portal with the weakest Evil Qi, it will be difficult to take a step forward. Fine, we'll wait until the hour of Wei. Once noon passes, the array changes again, and even if he manages to break into the array corner and throw the magic artifact, we won't have enough time to proceed."
Master Sun knew there was little hope left at this point, but this wager concerned the rise or fall of the sect's lineage. As long as Zhang Yan hadn't been destroyed, there remained a glimmer of hope.
