Despite being restored to its normal size, the surface of the Striped Tiger remained in a cracked state. Many Cold Beasts around it turned their heads to look, and upon seeing the web-like patterns on the Striped Tiger's back, their gazes changed instantly.

"Lord, some Cold Beasts have reached the side of the Holy Tripod."

"Don't worry, they won't get through!"

Hearing the shout from Yuan Cheng at the rear, Xia Hong didn't even turn his head. A faint light flashed past his left eye as he directly charged toward the nearest Teng Jiao on the right side.

"How is it possible that they can't get through?"

Yuan Cheng was assigned to Peng Bo's team, and their group was closest to the Holy Tripod. So when he saw three Cold Beasts breaking through the defense line and rushing toward the Holy Tripod, he promptly alerted Xia Hong.

But Xia Hong's response left him a bit dumbfounded!

Out of the seven squads with over two hundred people, almost no one was idle. Everyone was doing their best to pin down the Cold Beasts, either luring or disrupting them, afraid they would reach the vicinity of the Holy Tripod.

The three Cold Beasts, consisting of a Rodent, Frost Wolf, and Blue Moon Elf, were among the faster ones in the Cold Beast category. So it wasn't surprising that they could break through the defense line.

"Qiu Peng, you hold the line, I'll go over there!"

Seeing the three Cold Beasts were now less than twenty meters from the Holy Tripod, Yuan Cheng gritted his teeth and shouted to signal Qiu Peng from the same team to hold off the Teng Jiao in front of them, while he carried a giant axe and charged toward that direction.

Bang......

But just as he charged forward a dozen meters, a loud noise echoed from the area of the Holy Tripod. He looked up and was taken aback.

"Why are the Cold Beasts fighting each other?"

Behind the Holy Tripod, at some point, ten Advanced Thunder Kui had appeared. They charged out, knocking back the three approaching Cold Beasts, then stood steadily around the Holy Tripod, encircling it.

"Look at their eyes, those aren't Cold Beasts; they're Lord's Cold Beast Stakes transformed. He brought the Cold Beast Stakes from Xia City!"

Upon Qiu Peng's reminder, Yuan Cheng looked up at the ten Thunder Kui and finally noticed their pupils weren't the usual jade green of normal Advanced Cold Beasts but a fiery red like burning coal stone.

"So that's it; no wonder the Lord was so confident!"

Yuan Cheng suddenly realized, seeing the ten Thunder Kui guarding the Holy Tripod, relief finally appeared on his face.

"Advanced Thunder Kui transformed from Cold Beast Stakes, and there are ten of them; the Holy Tripod should be safe. No wonder the Lord is so fearless!"

At this moment, everyone else had also reacted, no longer paying attention to the situation at the Holy Tripod, instead focusing on the Cold Beasts in front of them.

Xia Hong continued to move around the battlefield. Ever since he started using the Shattering Divine Light of his left eye, his kill efficiency had increased almost exponentially. In just a short moment, he had killed twenty or thirty Advanced Cold Beasts.

Moreover, this speed was continuously increasing.

The Advanced Cold Beasts, willing or not, could only be divided by the Cold Resistance Level warriors of Great Xia. Even if some slipped through, those swift and agile ones reaching the Holy Tripod had to face the ten Golden Armored Thunder Kui transformed from the Cold Beast Stakes.

The entire battlefield instantly shifted into a one-sided pattern.

"Awoo......"

Suddenly, a low wolf howl came from the rear.

At Snow Hill—or more accurately, Snow Hollow—a group of Cold Resistance Level warriors entangled with the Cold Beasts, all turned to look behind them.

Seeing this, their expressions instantly changed.

"Don't panic! It's two Cold Beast Clans starting to move. Xia Chuan, Yuwen Dao, you go to the rear to lead the army to face them; everyone else continues."

"Yes, sir!"

Upon hearing the order, Xia Chuan and Yuwen Dao handed over command and quickly dashed toward the Dragon Martial Army and Cloud Dragon Army at the rear.

"Coming so late, it seems they were waiting for the right moment, thinking that your trump card is hidden among these two Cold Beast Clans......"

Xia Hong turned his head to look at the southern Yangyuan Peak, his eyes carrying a hint of amusement.
