CHAPTER 272: CHAPTER 201: INNER SECT DISCIPLE COMPETITION

Inner Sect Disciple Martial Arts Competition

Small Knife stepped on the flying sword, gliding across the long sky.

This feeling of flying is truly exhilarating.

Under normal circumstances, demon beasts near the coast are very rare, so Small Knife faced no danger and flew all the way back to the mainland.

There are quite a few islands near the coast, and other cultivators need to land occasionally to rest, not daring to overuse their spiritual power.

However, for Small Knife, a trickle of spiritual qi appeared directly within his body, rapidly refining and completely compensating for the energy consumed in flight.

Just like that, he headed all the way to the Water Element Sect.

Some cultivators noticed him, seeing his attire as an inner sect disciple of the Water Element Sect, and didn’t dare to provoke him.

This entire area belongs to the Water Element Sect’s territory.

He arrived at the Water Element Sect smoothly, and upon inquiry,

luckily, luckily, the inner sect disciple tournament hadn’t started yet.

It would begin in just four hours.

He hurried to register.

Luckily, he registered smoothly without any incident.

...!

"Guild Leader, the fact that you could establish the fourth corner and complete the Four Extremes is impressive; we of the Holy Sanctuary Guild admit defeat. But it’s quite ungentlemanly to still keep things hidden at this point." Although they came seeking cooperation, the high-level members of the Holy Sanctuary Guild still looked unpleasant after years of efforts completely failed.

"It wasn’t accomplished by us." The vice president of the Undying Guild also looked troubled.

If it wasn’t for mutual understanding, one might think they were showboating or trying to humiliate the other.

Initially, we thought, "Who else but us?" Yet...!

"I just don’t get it. Besides you, who else could it be? Do we still have to keep this hidden now?"

"It really wasn’t us, and our Undying Guild wouldn’t joke about this. However, the fourth corner is already completed, and our two major guilds are considered defeated. This is already a thing of the past.

The key now is to find out which force completed the task. They are hiding very deeply, and it seems our two major guilds need to unite.

"It must be the Nine Heavens and Four Seas; we underestimated them. They are truly well-concealed."

Right, other than them, who else could complete it? It’s simply impossible.

Recently, there’s been quite the buzz about the first player in public testing, who luckily obtained a treasure like Half-Spirit Water.

In large quantities.

The two major forces judge that this kid most likely acquired entry-level spirit water but lacked understanding, foolishly diluting a lot and then selling it.

Luck truly is unpredictable.

However, he is still too shallow; such a Quadruple Level task is impossible for him to participate in, let alone complete.

Nonetheless, now that the Level 4 task is completed, that lucky kid should hand over the spirit water in his possession.

But first, let’s contact the Nine Heavens and Four Seas Guilds.

The core of this world, the Five Elements Sword Sect, can only be conquered if all of us players unite in effort.

This is the real target, the so-called first player in public testing is just a dessert in comparison.

No matter if he obtained entry-level spirit water.

This will certainly be a prolonged war, but the eventual victory will undoubtedly belong to us.

...!

"Fifty spirit stones, this price isn’t low, and those who can afford spirit stones don’t need the Breaking Yuan Pill. But for us outer disciples who need it, very few can afford so many spirit stones." A voice came from over there.

Small Knife was startled, Breaking Yuan Pill?

It turned out the first place among the outer disciples this time surprisingly erupted in the arena, directly breaking through the bottleneck of the Qi Cultivation Third Layer to reach the Qi Cultivation Fourth Layer.

Hence, he doesn’t need the Breaking Yuan Pill as a reward.

At this moment, he’s naturally surrounded by those outer disciples who have some financial resources.

They are all at the Qi Cultivation Third Layer, and with this Breaking Yuan Pill, their chances of reaching the Qi Cultivation Fourth Layer and becoming inner sect disciples can reach at least eighty percent.

"Too low, at least eighty spirit stones; the price of an inner sect disciple’s qualification is worth it." The first place said without hesitation.

"At this price, no outer disciple can afford it, fifty-five...!"

"I’ll take it, I’ll take it for eighty spirit stones." Small Knife strode forward.

The attire of an inner sect disciple made these outer disciples somewhat hesitant, plus the Concealing Breath Skill was already mastered.

He smoothly obtained the Breaking Yuan Pill and, without hesitation, swallowed it.

With the aid of the system for absorption, the bottleneck began to loosen, no need to worry on his part.

However, this speed is somewhat slow.

He arrived at the inner sect disciple martial arts arena here.

Although it hadn’t started yet, quite a few inner sect disciples were already waiting here.

Small Knife glanced around; the majority were old and had no potential.

Only seven or eight were relatively young, and each was a focal point, even the disciples stronger than him would come up to flatter a bit.

"This junior brother looks unfamiliar." An elderly inner sect disciple at the Sixth Layer Qi Cultivation came over, full of a kind smile.

"I am Han Xiaodao, a recent joiner." Small Knife grinned.

"It’s you? The lucky kid who got in, only at the First Layer Qi Cultivation." The old man was stunned, his expression changing immediately.

His face showed obvious disdain, lacking the enthusiasm from before.

Yet looking at Small Knife eagerly examining the arena, how much it resembled his younger self.

Back then, he was full of spirit.

He sighed and said, "Kid at the First Layer Qi Cultivation, what are you doing here? You’d better stay away; many dissatisfied inner sect disciples are bound to pick fights with you. Strength is the foundation; such commotion isn’t where you should be."

Small Knife was a bit startled; truly unexpected. He chuckled and said, "It’s alright, I’m not weak."

"I used to think the same way."

After some chatting, this old fellow, born a commoner, was discovered to have a spirit root. Even at his First Realm, he possessed Three Spirit Roots, which was considered outstanding talent.
