As the command of the purple-robed middle-aged man echoed, the entire square boiled over once again.
Countless disciples exerted their movement techniques, running towards Thunder Cloud Mountain, fearing they were a step too late and would be overtaken by others.
Thump! Thump!
The majority of the first group of disciples who ran up Thunder Cloud Mountain suddenly knelt down on the stone steps, their originally rosy complexions instantly turning pale.
"What's happening?" Many disciples didn't understand what was going on, but when they stepped onto the first stone step, they immediately realized. An immense force weighed down on them like a mountain, seeming to crush everyone.
It didn't take long for some disciples to give in; their Spiritual Power was depleted from resisting the pressure, and they weakly collapsed on the stone steps. The next moment, a white light rose from beneath their feet, and with a flash, these disciples disappeared.
