At that moment, time seemed to freeze, and everyone nervously watched the number above the large supply box constantly jumping and decreasing. Finally, with the passage of the last second, the 10-second countdown to the successful landing of the large supply box came to an abrupt end.

There was a loud "bang" and the large supply box fell from the sky like a meteorite, smashing heavily on the ground with a force of tremendous force. The huge impact force caused the earth to tremble violently, raising a cloud of dust.

Those contestants who had been waiting under the large supply box early in the morning, trying to get the treasures inside as soon as possible, had no time to dodge. They were directly shaken by the powerful shock wave and flew backwards in a mess like a kite with a broken string.

"Charge! We must not let anyone else take away the treasures inside!"

Someone shouted at the top of his lungs in the chaotic crowd. In an instant, this sentence was like a spark that ignited a powder keg, detonating the desires and greed in the hearts of everyone present.

The people who were originally hesitant no longer cared about anything else and rushed towards the large supply box like a swarm of bees. There was a fanatical light flashing in everyone's eyes, as if the large supply box was their only life-saving straw.

In the blink of an eye, countless hands reached out to the large supply box, and the scene suddenly became extremely chaotic. First, a hand touched the hard shell of the large supply box, but before he could be happy, another more powerful hand quickly reached out and grabbed it fiercely.

Soon after, more and more hands came like a tide, touching the large supply box one after another. However, every hand that wanted to grab the box would be immediately pulled and blocked by other hands.

For a moment, all kinds of curses and shouts intertwined and resounded through the sky.

This stalemate lasted for a long time. Just when everyone thought that the fight would go on endlessly, an accident happened.

The crowd surrounding the large supply box suddenly seemed to be hit by an invisible wave and dispersed in all directions without any warning.

The people who were originally crowded together were now like ears of rice blown down by the wind, falling away in groups. In just a moment, a large open space was left around the large supply box. Most people were frightened by this sudden change and retreated repeatedly.

"Who the hell do you think you are? You're trying to co-operate with us, the disciples of the Li Zhan Sect, to snatch this large supply box. You can't even withstand a casual attack from us. You might as well eliminate yourselves and go home early to avoid being beaten up by us later."

When everyone heard the voice, they turned around and saw a powerful aura sweeping towards them from a distance like a strong wind. Upon closer inspection, they realized that the person who spoke was the mysterious force that had just scattered them.

It turned out that just a moment ago, the five powerful men of the Lizhan Sect rushed towards them like arrows from a bow with the force of thunder. The sudden impact caught everyone off guard and they were scattered in an instant.

Although everyone else had already seen the identity and location of the speaker, no one dared to step forward rashly, because the Li Zhan Sect's great reputation had already spread throughout the entire Southern Region, and it was feared by everyone.

Long ago, a widely circulated saying spread throughout the Southern Territory: "You can provoke the Zhumei Sect, Lantian Sect, or Lingshu Sect, but never offend the Lizhan Sect."

The reason for this is that everyone in the Lizhan Sect is a brave and aggressive battle maniac. Once they are angered, even if you are lucky enough to survive, you will most likely spend the rest of your life in bed in pain.

Because of this, although many forces present were dissatisfied, they dared not speak out. However, at this moment, not all sects at the scene were afraid of the Lizhan Sect. For example, the Zhumei Sect that had just appeared was one of them.

"What? These rubbish sects are afraid of your Lizhan Sect, but we, the Zhumei Sect, are not afraid. If you, the Lizhan Sect, are not convinced, do you dare to challenge me, Huang Fazhai, one-on-one?"

The speaker was Huang Fazhai, who had yellow hair, colorful clothes, and a long robe in the style of Zhumei Zong.

"Interesting. Since you have all shown up, then our Lantian Sect will naturally show up as well. I am the handsome Wang of the Lantian Sect, and I am here to seek your advice."

Seeing Huang Fazhai from Zhumei Sect and Lao Wang from Lantian Sect showing up, the man from Lizhan Sect who had just spoken gradually calmed down. However, this did not mean that he was afraid. On the contrary, it showed that he had become serious at the moment and seemed to have calmed down because he was too excited.

"Very good, now that Zhumei Sect and Lantian Sect have come out, shouldn't the remaining Lingshu Sect also come out to meet us? Otherwise, I, Zhan Doukuang, will look down on you."

"Who said we won't come out? It's because we don't have time."

Just after Zhan Doukuang finished speaking, another group of people appeared, and the speaker was the long-haired man in the lead.

"My name is Liu Jiying, nice to meet you all."

Liu Jiying stood still, with his long black hair cascading down his shoulders like a waterfall, gently brushing against his simple clothes, making his posture more upright. He smiled, clasped his hands together, and bowed deeply to everyone with an elegant and smooth movement.

Judging from this appearance alone, those who didn't know him well would undoubtedly perceive him as a graceful, gentle, and respectable gentleman. His handsome face and humble and courteous demeanor were enough to instill a liking for him, and even to draw in his affections.

However, the reality is not so. Only those who really know him know that he is far from being as kind and amiable as he appears.

Beneath that seemingly gentle mask, he hides a cunning and calculating heart. He often uses smiling but treacherous tactics to achieve his ulterior motives, making it difficult to guard against him.

The four major sects that participated in the formulation of the sect ranking competition rules all appeared at the scene of competing for the large supply box. Although everyone was mentally prepared, they still couldn't help but be shocked, and at the same time they were amazed at the temptation of the large supply box to the contestants.

"Now that everyone from the four major sects has shown up, it's almost our turn. We should then incite the people from other sects and try to muddy the waters a little more."

When Hong Huang saw people from the four major sects showing up, he explained the next plan to Lin Fan and the others who were mixed in the crowd.

"As I said before, Leng Feng and I will listen to you."

"Yan Yi is right. It's up to you."

"It's actually the same method I used to steal the secret treasure in the Spirit Beast Forest. It seems I can try this method more often in the future."

“The method is indeed good and feasible.”

"Oh, by the way, do you have any pills or magic weapons that can temporarily change the voice? I might need them next."

"No."

"I do not have either."

"I don't have any either, but I can make a voice-changing pill on the spot. However, that would cause quite a bit of noise."

After hearing the answers from the three of them, Hong Huang shook his head, and then looked at his last hope - Leng Feng.

"I think I do have them, but I put them all in my storage bag."

"It's really hard not to be able to use the storage bag, but I have another way."

After saying that, Hong Huang took out a gem and showed it to everyone.

"This is the item I got from the supply box. It's used similarly to a storage bag, storing items. My ink spear is inside right now, and there's also an item I got earlier—the clone formation."

"Avatar Formation? It sounds powerful, but I wonder how it actually works?"

"To be honest, the effect isn't that great. You can think of it as a formation that can create clones, but these clones will basically shatter at the slightest touch."

"So you plan to use these clones to make up for our numerical disadvantage and create the illusion of a large-scale resistance?"

"Ye Yu is right. Since it has no other use anyway, let this formation do its part for us here."

While Hong Huang and others were enthusiastically exchanging their views and plans with each other, on the other side, a tense and fierce exchange and discussion was also taking place between the four major sects.

After careful consideration, the four major sects finally reached a consensus: put aside the grudges and competition between each other for the time being, and concentrate their efforts on dealing with the disciples of other sects that did not belong to the four major sects.

After all, although the disciples of these small sects are relatively weak, if they are left alone, they may bring unexpected troubles to the four major sects at critical moments.

Thus, a siege operation against disciples from other sects began.
