On the spirit energy screen, the director switched the camera to the scene of the Buddhist and Daoist groups tumbling over the bridge.

“The performance of the three masters and Daoists is truly eye-opening,”

The male commentator expressed surprise, “In such a challenging scenario of a narrow bridge, they found a way to pass the obstacle together and win the race!”

“I wonder how the remaining groups will pass the obstacle? Will they choose a win-win approach like the masters and Daoists, or will they compete against each other and follow a path of solo supremacy?”

The female commentator said with a smile.

The director’s camera then switched to the Ao siblings and Nalan Yu.

After a brief standoff between the Fire Phoenix and the Ice Dragon, Ao Yuan, piloting the Ice Dragon chariot, rushed towards the iron chain bridge first. As the bridge swayed, Princess Nalan chose not to confront the siblings head-on.

A burst of red magic light erupted from the Fire Phoenix, as the mechanical phoenix rapidly disintegrated into tiny particles, starting to reassemble.

In almost an instant, these mechanical particles reshaped into a hundred-foot-long centipede. The mechanical centipede, entirely red and burning like flames, crawled underneath the iron chain bridge, hooking its legs onto the bridge planks and moving swiftly.

“Princess Nalan Yu truly lives up to her title as the third-place winner of the last competition. Faced with Princess Ao Yuan seizing the initiative, she finds an alternative path… She chose to pass under the iron chain bridge, and she’s even faster than Princess Ao Yuan!”

“These two groups are quite interesting in terms of their identities. One is a princess of an Immortal Dynasty and the other is a team of the Crown Prince and Princess of the Eastern Sea. I have a feeling that in the later stages of the race, these two will clash again!”

“The Buddhist-Daoist group and the royal group have presented refreshing strategies. Although the rankings are still pending, in terms of creativity points, these two groups have already won a round.”

The two hosts took turns speaking, and as they commented, several contestants had already approached the end of the track.

Leading the way, Lu Xuan’s team was the first to cross the iron chain bridge, followed closely by the monks of the Great Light Sect. The third to cross were the tree people from the Demon Fairy Nation.

Their wooden chariot, seemingly ordinary, had undergone transformation during the first obstacle to dodge the teleporting light spots more easily.

The ordinary chariot disassembled and reformed into a ten-foot cubic wooden structure with horizontal and vertical stripes folding and arranging themselves, with wood grain patterns emerging on the surface.

Paired with the tree people was the trio from the Jade Bone Sect. The wooden cube against the bone sphere created a scene reminiscent of a spatial geometry conference.

In the moment of crossing the bridge, the wooden cube wrapped around the tree people leapt high into the air, crashing down near the bridge pile.

The iron chain bridge shook violently, the earth and stones at this end collapsed, and the bridge pile fell, plunging downwards.

At a critical moment, the bone sphere transformed back into a white bone giant. Its arms, with a narrow escape, clung to the edge of the cliff, pulling the three contestants back up.

After accomplishing this, the white bone giant swung its massive hand, breaking the bridge pile of an adjacent iron chain bridge.

The contestants crossing this bridge were from the Valley People tribe.

They drove a corn battle chariot, piloted by a blonde-haired driver, strikingly bright. At the end of his hair dangled light golden wheat spikes, a trait revealing his species.

As is known, female demons transform completely from head to toe, while male demons often retain their magnificent horns, wings, and claws.

The wheat-transformed contestant was just so.

However, in this situation, his handsomeness was of no use.

As the iron chain bridge collapsed, the driver of the battle chariot tried to eject out, but due to the no-fly zone, the corn chariot struggled only briefly before falling like a bird with broken wings into the abyss. A sight that would bring tears to the eyes of the Su Sui Sect.

A loud bird cry resounded.

From the depths of the abyss, a huge dark shadow emerged. The Bifang mythical beast caught the falling corn chariot on its back.

Spreading its wings, Bifang placed the shocked Valley People tribe contestants back at the bridgehead. They had triggered the competition rules and used their revival opportunity.

Another fall, and this team would be completely eliminated.

“Deserving of the last competition’s runner-up title. When facing competition, our Jade Bone Sect contestants can be described as decisive and ruthless,”

The male commentator said with a laugh, “The dragon slayer eventually becomes the dragon, breaking others’ umbrellas because they’ve been rained on.”

“However, I must remind the contestants that being overly combative can end up benefiting others.”

The female commentator took over, “Our first place is already on their way to the next obstacle.”

“It’s unexpected. Now leading by a distance is the initially low-profile team thirteen, ” The male host remarked.

The female commentator nodded with a smile: “Perhaps this team has a chance to clinch the championship?”

Maintaining their lead was naturally Lu Xuan’s team.

Leveraging the advantage accumulated in the first obstacle, the Nine Dragons Coffin smoothly passed the second challenge. Ahead, the track underwent a transformation.

The road disappeared, replaced by a vast desert.

“Ladies and gentlemen in the audience, as we can see, some contestants have already reached the third obstacle. The track has disappeared, making way for a free-for-all speed race,”

The male commentator announced, “The theme of this obstacle is the desert. Beneath the desert, the competition committee has already deployed tens of thousands of sand-swallowing scorpions..
