    Naiheqiao gave a deep sigh of relief as he found no one forcing him to lose his temper, then coldly ordered, “ce the Bullheads on the altar.”


    As Naiheqiao spoke, yers from the two separate teams ced the Bullheads into the grooves on either side of the statue.


    ming Red Lips nodded, personally walking to the statue’s side to ce the Bullhead.


    “It’s your turn.”


    Naiheqiaomented coldly.


    Only then did Li Yao leisurely dismount from his riding beast, patting a Bullhead into his hands.


    It was the only loot dropped by the Silver Hero, specifically designed to open the Cow Gate.


    Li Yao carefully set the Bullhead in ce, cautiously retreating. Though his attack was strong and he had plenty of health, he had to be wary of control skills from all sses. Otherwise, he risked being instantly killed.


    “Rx, we won’t make a move now. I am curious to see how you’re going to break through on your own,” Naiheqiao sneered while looking at Li Yao.


    Li Yao simply chuckled and didn’t respond.


    A portal shaded like an illusion sprung forth from the statue, bathing everyone in beams of light before being teleported within the gate.


    A momentter, the gate disappeared. The statue, more illusory than before, gradually vanished out of sight.


    Li Yao found himself in a gloomy prairie; thick clouds overhead blocked the sun entirely.


    Despite the grass being lush, the air was tinged with a faintly nauseating smell, as well as a hint of demonic aura.


    The Cow Gate, a ce reputed to exist on the other side of the.


    Thisnd was called the Sanctuary, also known as the God Demon Battlefield.


    Legend had it that thisnd was originally inhabited by gods and demons, who were in endless warfare, leaving thend a wastnd after many earth- shattering battles.


    The once prosperous world had disappeared. The entire continent was rampaged by barbaric creatures, mindless undead, and demons from the abyssal depths.


    Thisnd was also known as the neutral camp. It was hoped that various races from the East and West continents would support them in rebuilding their home.


    Sanctuary was also shrouded in mystery. Li Yao was quite aware that the level-10 main instance dungeon, the Evil Cave, was located not far from Rogge Camp in Sanctuary.


    As for the Cow Gate, it could technically be considered an Anomaly.


    The Wild Bullmen inside were distinct from the Tauren of the West Continent. These Wild Bullmen were enved with the constant onught from the abyssal demons and had corrosive assimtion, their blood polluted by the demons.


    The Cow Gate, supposedly once a beautiful pasture, had now be the birthing ground for the demonic Wild Bullmen.


    The Cow Gate was divided into several levels, ranging from Two Bullhead summonings, Four Bullhead summonings, Eight Bullhead summonings, and so forth.


    Each entry varied in rules and gamey, and it was certainly not standardized.


    In his previous life, Li Yao had participated a few times but rarely joined due to being a solo yer. Moreover, he couldn’t judge the Cow Gate from experience alone.


    “SYSTEM: Please prepare, Prairie Fire. The first trial will begin in one minute.” “SYSTEM: The first trial, Altarpetition.”


    “Altarpetition rules: 1, yers from the four teams will rush towards the Central Altar from their direction to gain the power of the altar. During this period, yers cannot fight among themselves. 2, The Altarpetition is an elimination battle. Thest team to reach the Altar is eliminated. 3, At most, the Altarpetition battleground opens for two hours, in case no team arrives at the Altar within two hours, they will also be eliminated.”


    “The Altarpetition will start soon. Get ready for battle: 10, 9, 8, 7, 6…”


    Seeing the countdown, Li Yao immediately drew out his crossbow and swiftly loaded the Arrow Shafts.


    From a bird’s eye view, it was possible to observe four teams starting from four different directions in the prairie, right in the middle shone a radiant Altar.


    As the countdown continued, the phantasmal Wild Bullmen began spawning.


    Everyone prepared for battle, yet the anticipated monster ambush failed to ur as more and more Wild Bullmen appeared on the prairie.


    Some Wild Bullmen roamed in groups and some alone.


    Mixed among them were exceptionallyrge and even golden Wild Bullmen. Just from noticing these golden Wild Bullmen – over twice the size of normal ones – it was immediately evident that these creatures were no pushovers.


    “Prairie Fire, right? Now, let the match begin! Let’s see how you’re going to die… Don’t think you’ll even see the Altar.”


    Naiheqiao taunted through the area channel.


    The Vice President was right! Not attacking him earlier was truly a brilliant move. By doing so, one elimination seat is already secured—what a relief.”


    “He’s nothing, just a jumping jack as far as I am concerned. If it wasn’t for the Bullhead he had, we would have eliminated him already.”


    Seeing Li Yao’s continued silence, Naiheqiao continued his mockery, “What’s the matter? Scared now? It’s toote! Hahaha.


    Unable to bear it any longer, ming Red Lips intervened, “Enough! You are acting smug over nothing. And as for you, being insulted so much yet offering no retort—where has your manly spirit gone?”


    “Piss off girl! This isn’t your ce to speak. Move aside for your superiors. We’ll have some fun with you in the next round,” Naiheqiao curtly snapped back.


    “Unreasonable,” eximed an infuriated ming Red Lips. “Are you truly not a man? Do you think if you act weak they will let you go?”


    “I just don’t like wasting my time talking to irrelevant people, especially when these irrelevant people have intelligence issues.” Li Yao’s text finally appeared in the area channel: “16.17.18…”


    “Stubborn in the face of death!” Naiheqiao expressed disdainfully.


    “25.26.27…”


    ming Red Lips asked quizzically, “What on earth are you doing, counting monsters?”


    Li Yao responded, “Yup, I’m counting the Wild Bullmen I’ve killed. Please, continue. By the time you finish, I’ll probably have reached the Altar already.


    38.39-40.41…”


    “Hmph, just blowing your own trumpet.” said Naiheqiao, scoffing.


    “Ignorant man not looking at the upper right corner of his screen,” Li Yao replied, “49-50.51, finished with one wave.”


    “What the hell? Are you even human?” Furong Rain gasped in amazement as she looked at the screen.


    Upon reading Li Yao’s message, everyone in the area turned their eyes to the top-right corner of their disys. Indeed, there were four team indicators showing progress and monster kill counts.


    While all the three other teams had yet to start, the Hundred Flower Alliance had killed one Wild Bullman. However, Li Yao’s kill count shockingly stood at 51.


    “Damn, there must be a bug.”


    Almost instantly, everyone came upon the same thought— Hold on a second! We just started, and you’ve already killed over fifty? You’re going against the heavens. Don’t you ever consider if there’s room left for anyone else?


    The team of the Hundred Flower Alliance was also left speechless, utterly shocked by this astounding oue.


    Especially Naiheqiao who was most vocal in mocking Li Yao was now looking like a strangled hen, his face beet red.


    Seeing all of his teammates staring at him, Naiheqiao roared, “What are you looking at? Go pull the monsters!”
