Everyone present sucked in a breath of cold air. Huo Yan was simply too arrogant, daring to challenge an Emperor like this. Even though his bravery was commendable, he was simply seeking death. That Emperor was not someone who anyone could afford to offend.
Moreover, there were no benefits whether he won or lost. If he won, he would be slapping the face of an Empire, and the consequences would be severe; if he lost, he would be mocked for overestimating his capabilities. This was an extremely unrewarding matter.
However, Huo Yan still said those words, wanting to fight with this legendary Emperor and witness his power.
The others actually also wanted to see this Emperor's power; they had all heard about how he had conquered the Ten Thousand Dragon Stage, but they had not seen his power for themselves.
They all felt a bit doubtful as to how terrifying that Emperor was, and they could not confirm that he really was as monstrous as the rumors said.
