Chapter 22 The Grand Competition Begins



Three days passed in the blink of an eye.

As a disciple who had already entered the outer sect, he was not assigned any menial tasks during this period.

He spends his days wandering around the market, occasionally picking up a bargain or two from the stalls.

Scattered and scattered, the transaction points have accumulated to 120.

I also spent 280 yuan to buy another Green Bamboo Magic Sword that I bought last time. I'll wait three days for the update and then sell it again.

The last spirit stone owed to Li Yang has been returned to him, and he now has 263 spirit stones remaining.

Ye Feng, Ji Da, and the others received the notification yesterday during the day.

They began gathering at the management office before dawn.

I hadn't noticed before, but now, with this big competition, I've discovered that there are actually so many Qi Refining Level 4 cultivators hidden in the servants' area—a total of eighty people.

Of course, seven or eight of them, like Ye Feng, had been sent back from the outer sect.

Ji Dayi's face turned green when he saw so many people. Eighty people from one district, that's over three hundred from all four districts...

On the contrary, Ye Feng felt it was a bit too little.

The more than 5,000 people in Xuanwu District were divided into three groups, with each group consisting of more than 1,600 people.

Only these eighty people advanced to the fourth level; the remaining 1,500 or so were unable to enter the outer sect and were expelled, becoming rogue cultivators.

Ye Feng was able to enter the sect with prior skills and, by sheer luck, become a menial servant in the Qingyun Sect with four spiritual roots. This was largely due to his parents' influence, his clean background, and Zeng Yuan's introduction. Otherwise, he would have been just like everyone else, struggling desperately outside...

Of course, given the original owner's situation... it might have been better if she hadn't come in at all.

Led by Zeng Yuan, the group of eighty people bypassed the outer gate and headed directly for the inner gate.

They then joined up with the other three districts, forming a group of over three hundred people.

Led by two Foundation Establishment cultivators, they arrived at Qingyun Square, located on the main peak of Qingyun Mountain.

Upon arriving, I discovered that the entire Qingyun Mountain and Sea is divided into ten peaks, the largest of which is the main peak of Qingyun.

"Look, there are so many female cultivators over there among the outer disciples!"

The sky was beginning to brighten, and there were at least one or two thousand people in the square.

There were 300 menial laborers on one side, 500 on the outer sect side, and several hundred inner sect disciples watching the battle.

In addition, there are numerous Foundation Establishment deacons and main peak management personnel.

Feeling like a stranger in a strange land, Ji Da surprisingly felt closer to Ye Feng and took the initiative to strike up a conversation with him.

However, Ye Feng ignored him; he was also looking at the female cultivator.

There were no female cultivators in the servants' quarters; he only occasionally saw them in the market.

But how can a businessperson with professional ethics arbitrarily look at their customers?

Now is the perfect time!

One by one, the female cultivators, dressed in red and green, were like orioles and swallows, vying for beauty and charm, their smiles radiant...

This is truly amazing! This is what cultivating immortality is all about!

However, these female cultivators were all rather young, and their physical attributes seemed somewhat limited; only one or two were truly formidable.

"Why are some of them wearing outer uniforms while others are wearing their own clothes?"

Ye Feng found it somewhat strange that Ji Da was talking incessantly.

Just then, a group of fifty women broke off from the group of seventy or eighty female cultivators; these were the ones not wearing outer sect uniforms.

One of the "elder sisters" whom Ye Feng had his eye on was among them.

"They're coming this way... Oh dear, are they going to stand next to us?"

Ye Feng and Ji Da were standing at the very edge of the line facing the outer gate. Seeing the group of women approaching, Ye Feng shoved Ji Da aside with a back elbow, then straightened his clothes and tidied his hair.

On such an important day, I should definitely wear nice clothes.

Ye Feng was dressed in a blue robe, with a worn-out gemstone belt he'd bought from the market around his waist. Overall, he still looked quite presentable.

"oh....!"

\"Wow!!\"

...

Seeing this group of female cultivators walking towards them, the servants, who rarely saw female cultivators, couldn't help but burst into a howl of surprise.

However, they were quickly subdued by the pressure from the Foundation Establishment cultivator.

Ye Feng didn't scream; he kept his eyes fixed straight ahead.

Out of the corner of his eye, however, he kept following "Big Sister Capital".

This woman's appearance is average, but that's only in comparison to the many female cultivators in the market.

In her past life, she would definitely have been a 90-point beauty.

Although her appearance is somewhat mature, it adds to her sophisticated and elegant demeanor.

Before the female cultivator arrived, the menial servants in Ye Feng's team were all like wolves and tigers.

Now that the female cultivators were standing nearby, they all put on a sanctimonious act, wishing they could stay at least three zhang away.

The line was neatly arranged, and the "eldest sister" stood right next to Ye Feng.

I could feel a wave of heat pressing down on my right arm, which was resting about a foot away.

Damn it, what kind of gentleman are you at a time like this? If you don't strike up a conversation now, when will you?

Just as Ye Feng had figured out his words and was preparing to make his move,

"Total number of participants: 402. Let's begin the draw! Number 1 will play against number 402, and so on, until the final winner is determined!"

"Senior brother! If you run into little sister, you must go easy on her!"

Ye Feng turned his head in surprise and saw it was indeed the fierce eldest sister.

At this moment, the woman leaned slightly towards Ye Feng to speak, the large ball only 0.01 centimeters away from Ye Feng's arm.

Ye Feng smiled slightly.

"I'm determined to win first place in the grand competition! If we're to clash in the ring, we'll each rely on our own abilities!"

"Pfft!"

The female cultivator standing in front of the eldest sister scoffed.

"You think you're number one? Senior Sister Yu Man is a Foundation Establishment disciple. Don't get beaten to a pulp."

The female cultivator behind the eldest sister chimed in.

"They might be eliminated in the first round, and we won't even get a chance to meet them."

"Nonsense, Ye Feng is very powerful, he'll be at least in the top ten this time!"

Ji Da then popped up, asserting his presence.

Ye Feng glanced at him; the guy was red-faced and thick-necked, and he was actually speaking the truth.

You bastard, do I need you to help me stir up trouble?

When Ye Feng spoke, only a few people nearby heard him, and most of them smiled wryly.

His shout drew the attention of hundreds of people within a ten-meter radius.

Damn it...

Fortunately, it was soon their turn to draw lots...

Ye Feng looked at number 66 in his hand, feeling satisfied.

Sixes bring good fortune and auspiciousness.

Originally, I planned to just eat whatever was available and leave the rankings to chance, but now I have no choice but to compete.

"System Temporary Task: Win first place in the Miscellaneous Disciple Competition, and unlock one level-two function ahead of schedule. Choose one of three options."

1. One cubic meter of portable space

2. The maximum transaction amount has been increased to 10,000.

3. The number of full-amount transactions can be accumulated, with a maximum of 100.

Ye Feng was envious of every reward, but he preferred the third one the most.

The first option can be ruled out immediately; storage bags will suffice.

The second option is also very good, but he can't do it now, nor does he have the opportunity to do such a large business.

In comparison, the third option offers the best value for money!

I'll accumulate these attempts and sell them later when I can refine pills or when I have the opportunity...

By the time everyone had finished drawing lots, it was already broad daylight.

A series of whistling sounds rang out.

More than ten figures fell from the sky.

"It's the sect leader! The elders!"

Although the group had been in the mountains for almost three years, this was the first time they had ever seen so many important figures.

No wonder everyone wants to show off at the year-end competition.

Aside from a few with connections, probably no one would pass up such a good opportunity in order to secure a spot.

A Golden Core cultivator! If I were to be accepted as a disciple by a Golden Core cultivator, my future would be incredibly bright!

"The road ahead is long and arduous, and we must strive to explore it... Since the founding of the sect by the Qingyun Ancestor two thousand years ago... five Nascent Soul True Monarchs and one hundred and fifty Golden Core True Persons have been born... All of you should strive to be the best and create a glorious future!"

After a lengthy opening speech that lasted for half an incense stick's time, Sect Master Qingsong unleashed a burst of magical power.

"Thump!!"

The sect's alarm bell rang, its deep sound resounding throughout Qingyun Mountain, clearly audible even hundreds of miles away at the foot of the mountain.

The formation was activated, and the entire sect entered a state of emergency.

I hereby declare!

"The competition begins!!"
