Liu Yunqing won against Liu Yunzhao by one point, and the Loose Cultivator Alliance was the happiest of all.

How many years has it been?

Their alliance of independent cultivators has finally won first place in the hunting competition once again!

The news was relayed back to the headquarters of the Loose Cultivator Alliance at top speed, and the name "Red-Clothed Zhenru" quickly spread throughout the alliance.

Of course, that's a matter for later. The more important thing right now is to allocate resources based on the competition rankings.

Although the top few are not much different from before, except for the Loose Cultivator Alliance, they all come from the five major sects.

The main resources to be divided are public spirit stones, mining rights for mineral veins, and control over the five major secret realms.

Among these, the most important are not spirit stones and various mineral veins, but the five secret realms.

These five secret realms are famous for their diverse landscapes and abundant spiritual resources, making them essential training grounds for cultivators.

However, these secret realms are different from those mountains that can be freely entered and exited for training. Entry and exit to these five secret realms requires payment.

Whoever controls this secret realm during this period will receive the reward.

The reward isn't your spirit stones, but rather 20% of the items you obtain in the secret realm.

Two-tenths of the harvest may not seem like much, but if each person receives two-tenths at a time, and manages it for ten years, it can greatly enrich the entire sect's treasury.

Don't be naive enough to think you can hide secretly. Many people have tried to do that before, but they were killed by the array at the entrance of the secret realm before they could even step out.

The powerful figures present were heartbroken to see Chunyu Changfeng heading towards the models of several secret realms, and their expressions were quite varied.

It's obvious that Chunyu Changfeng will choose the largest secret realm.

Those sects that had benefited from it felt as if a layer of flesh had been scraped off their bodies.

How did this loose cultivator alliance get so lucky and dig up such a treasure as Zhenru?

Recalling that red figure, the powerful figures were puzzled again. How did this genius girl appear so suddenly without making a sound?

If there had been earlier, the Loose Cultivator Alliance wouldn't have had a chance!

The thought of the largest secret realm being taken over, and the smaller secret realms within it about to open, made the powerful figures feel even more suffocated.

Even though many people felt guilty towards Chunyu Changfeng because of certain things, the way they looked at him now was as if they wanted to devour him whole... Hmm?

wrong!

Chunyu Changfeng's choice... doesn't seem to be the largest secret realm?

"I choose this one."

Chunyu Changfeng's long fingers hovered over the five secret realm models for a while, then gently tapped the smallest one.

Seeing that no one reacted, Chunyu Changfeng repeated himself:

"I choose the Hidden Realm of Fusang."

"The Hidden Realm of Fusang?! Is Lord Chunyu really here?!"

Ming Chongjian was the first to react, and asked incredulously.

Although the Wuji Sword Sect is not exactly strapped for cash, its sword cultivators are indeed poorer and have a greater thirst for resources compared to other sects and forces.

Seeing that Mingming was clearly in first place, yet chose Chunyu Changfeng from the smallest secret realm, Mingchong Sword Master's feelings were truly complicated.

In this way, the Wuji Sword Sect won't have to take the smallest secret realm this time, and the sect will be more financially secure.

However, when he thought about how the other party could have chosen the biggest and best secret realm, but wasted the opportunity, Ming Chongjianjun felt particularly heartbroken after putting himself in their shoes.

The problem isn't that the Fusang Secret Realm is small; it can't be that small if it's a public secret realm. The real issue is that the Fusang Secret Realm is excessively mysterious and strange.

Those who go in may not necessarily gain any benefits; some may even lose their lives inside.

Although there are plenty of people going to this secret realm, it's not profitable at all; it's a huge loss!

However, considering that the Loose Cultivator Alliance has never obtained a secret realm and does not know the secrets of it, it is understandable that they would choose this path to build good relations with the sect forces.

Thinking this, Ming Chongjianjun looked at Chunyu Changfeng with a hint of uneasy sympathy. He held back for a moment, then quickly blurted out:

"Lord Chunyu, won't you make another selection? Once you've made your move, there's no going back."

When the others heard Ming Chongjianjun's words, their hearts tightened, fearing that Chunyu Changfeng might really change his mind, but strangely no one said anything.

Only the ever-unrestrained and aloof Daoist Wenxi rolled his eyes and said indifferently:

"A person over a thousand years old, does he need someone to teach him the principle of 'no regrets after a move'?"

Ming Chongjianjun's eyes widened, but when he met the arrogant Wenxi Daojun's gaze, he couldn't say anything.

On the contrary, Chunyu Changfeng always had a gentle, spring-like smile, yet it was also full of aloofness.

Even as Wenxi Daojun mocked him, Chunyu Changfeng remained unmoved, his voice gentle as he said:

"Thank you for the reminder, Sword Master Mingchong. I have decided to choose the Fusang Secret Realm. If you could grant me a small request..."

The others were initially delighted, but upon hearing the "small request," their joy vanished. They exchanged glances, deciding to wait and see.

Seeing that no one spoke, Wenxi Daojun, who had been lazily leaning back in his chair, slowly sat up straight, looked around, and said:

What are the requirements?

Chunyu Changfeng pointed to the largest secret realm and said:

"I can choose not to enter the Flowing Abyss Secret Realm, but I want control over its opening this time."

"In addition, the mining rights to one more fire spirit stone mine and one weapon-refining mine."

The others exchanged glances; the request wasn't unreasonable.

The Nascent Soul elder representing the Myriad Wonders Sect nodded slightly and then looked at Chunyu Changfeng, saying:

"May I ask, Lord Chunyu, what do you mean by taking control of the Liuyuan Secret Realm?"

Chunyu Changfeng turned around at the sound and faced the speaker, saying:

"Just as Daoist Suwei thought, once the opening time of the secret realm ends, our Loose Cultivator Alliance will not delay."

Daoist Suwei nodded, her brows furrowing slightly, and glanced at the cultivators from the other sects, saying:

"But……"

Chunyu Changfeng's smile widened, and he said in a very approachable manner:

“Then I’ll compromise again. I want control, but I only want sixty spots to enter the secret realm. The remaining one hundred and forty spots can be shared among you and everyone else.”

The secret realm within the secret realm of Liuyuan can accommodate two hundred Foundation Establishment cultivators. The controlling sect can occupy eighty of them. Now that Chunyu Changfeng has voluntarily given up twenty spots, the others immediately relaxed.

The group exchanged glances, then inventoried the spirit stone veins and weapon-refining mines, dividing up their respective shares. Suwei Daojun then addressed Chunyu Changfeng:

"Then we shall do as Lord Chunyu says."

Chunyu Changfeng's smile became genuine, and he took out the contract scroll with his other hand.

With a flick of her hand on the table, the models of the secret realms and mineral veins automatically flew into the scroll. After the group left their divine sense imprints, a rumble of thunder echoed in the sky, and the contract was thus completed.

The allocation negotiations on Da Neng's side had a minor setback, but overall everything went smoothly.

The disciples who had participated in the hunting competition but had not left were now in a state of subtle confrontation on Sunset Plaza.

"Is the Daughter of Heavenly Fortune so special? Didn't she still lose to Fellow Daoist Zhenru?"

"If that's the case, then what is Fellow Daoist Zhenru?"
