Chapter 579

The Earthfiend Sect challenging the Xiaoyao Sect was an outcome that the Ghost King Sect and the Alliance were most pleased to see. The Alliance was rotated among the top three sects, and they certainly did not want a fourth super sect to emerge. The Xiaoyao Sect had reigned supreme in the Western Range for ten thousand years, and its foundation was unfathomable. If the Earthfiend Sect could blunt their sharpness and cause reputational damage, creating a tripartite balance of power in the Western Range, it would undoubtedly benefit the long-term interests of the Alliance. The Ghost King Sect stood to benefit the most. Regardless of whether the Earthfiend Sect could defeat the Xiaoyao Sect or not, they had already served as the vanguard for the Ghost King Sect, wearing down some of their top-tier strength, which would certainly benefit subsequent seeding matches. In the previous tournament, the Ghost King Sect had passed on challenging the Xiaoyao Sect, but this time they were determined to fight for the title of Western Range overlord.
