Xiao Feng was also surprised that the sect leader would come to explain this matter to him in person.
Thinking back, it seems the competition is indeed just around the corner.
It is held once every ten years.
If all goes well, the same group of people might participate in this competition several times in a row.
Xiao Feng also didn't understand the significance of this ten-year grand competition.
Moreover, since sects are already colluding with each other, what's the point of them participating?
If even basic fairness cannot be guaranteed, participation is nothing more than a formality.
“But since Master already knows that some sects are colluding to eliminate people from other sects in advance, and the fairness of the competition cannot be guaranteed, what is the point of participating?” Xiao Feng asked directly.
The sect leader of Qingzong shook his head and then said, "Things are not that simple. Although people from other sects may also collude, this is also a key test of your strength."
"For this competition, I and the other elders have already discussed it and decided that we want you to lead the team to participate. The reason we arranged this marriage for you is also to ensure that you can cooperate well with the Xuantian Sect in the future."
"Since they can unite, so can we. This is related to the future allocation of resources in the cultivation world. Without resources, the strength of sects cannot be improved, let alone the future."
"Besides the demon race, the demon kings of the demon race are also eyeing us covetously. Although they haven't caused any trouble yet, it won't be long before the cultivation world is in chaos again."
"Therefore, we must make all the necessary preparations. Moreover, people from other sects will also choose to unite with each other, which will also test your abilities."
"See if we can break their alliance. If we can win their hearts and minds, it will be helpful for you later."
Xiao Feng knew he couldn't refuse the title of team leader.
After all, my strength has been quite stable during this period.
Even within the sect, few could rival him.
But Xiao Feng knew absolutely nothing about the other sects!
The original owner wasn't a motivated student.
His mind was filled with nothing but romantic tales and obsequious behavior.
Xiao Feng didn't sift out much useful information from it at all.
Now that he's going to participate in the once-in-a-decade competition, Xiao Feng can only hope that his cultivation level will be refreshed in the next few days, and he mustn't be refreshed to the first, second, or third level.
Otherwise, I would really lose face big time.
Fortunately, his Azure Sect Qi Refining Technique had successfully reached the early stage of the fourth level.
His swordsmanship is already quite proficient, although he has not yet reached the point of perfect harmony between man and sword.
However, within the Qingzong sect, his strength can be ranked in the top tier.
"This disciple will not let Master down. I will definitely lead my junior brothers and sisters to win this competition and will never disappoint Master."
The sect leader of the Azure Sect nodded in satisfaction.
Just as he was about to leave, Xiao Feng seemed to suddenly remember something.
He spoke directly, saying, "To participate in the once-in-a-decade competition, some disciples will definitely need to be selected, right? Master, could you give me the freedom to choose the junior brothers and sisters who will accompany me?"
According to the seniority of Xiao Feng's closed-door disciples.
Although he is still very young, he can indeed be called the senior brother.
His senior brothers and sisters were actually only a few cultivators who were ranked ahead of him and were also disciples of the sect leader.
He deserves to be called "senior brother" by others.
Even if they are much older than me!
However, I don't need to elaborate on the chaotic situation within the sect.
Few people are willing to call him "senior brother," and even if they do, few do so willingly.
The sect leader could agree to such a small request, and nodded directly.
After Xiao Feng happily saw off the sect leader, he began planning what rules to set for the upcoming selection competition.
Many people in the sect knew that the grand competition was about to begin.
Their chance to shine again, once every ten years, is finally coming to them.
Everyone wants to make a name for themselves in the competition.
Then came the news that Xiao Feng was in charge of the selection competition before the grand competition, which puzzled everyone.
But then he remembered that all of the sect leader's other disciples had gone out to train.
Furthermore, the other disciples' ages don't match, so the disciple leading the team must have a higher status.
There were no other candidates besides Xiao Feng, so they had no choice but to accept them reluctantly.
There are age restrictions for participating in this competition; not everyone can participate.
After Xiao Feng announced that the selection competition was open for registration, many people within the age limit came to sign up.
Some even tried to flatter Xiao Feng, hoping that he would select them to participate in the competition.
Xiao Feng immediately crossed out the names of anyone who tried to curry favor with him.
They couldn't even participate in the first selection.
The pre-competition selection process lasted for five days. After five days, Xiao Feng took the final list of selected candidates and delivered it directly to the sect leader.
The sect leader was puzzled when he saw that some disciples with considerable strength had not appeared in the list.
However, since he had already agreed to let Xiao Feng take charge of the selection, he wouldn't say anything more.
In addition, not all the powerful ones are not on it; some of them are still there.
The sect leader then handed the list to Xiao Feng, instructing him to take it and announce it directly.
When Xiao Feng announced the final list of selected members within the sect, it immediately caused a huge uproar.
Many people were unconvinced, and that's right, it was those disciples who were quite strong.
They directly questioned Xiao Feng's criteria for selecting people in public.
Some people with less ability than them were able to be selected smoothly, so why can't they?!
Unfortunately, some of these people were disciples who routinely targeted Xiao Feng.
They dreamed of making a name for themselves in this competition and completely overshadowing Xiao Feng's reputation.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Feng even rejected their participation.
Xiao Feng happened to be the team leader this time, so they were dissatisfied and went directly to Xiao Feng.
"Xiao Feng! Did you do this on purpose?!"
"Yes, you did it on purpose! Do you know that the results of this competition affect the resource allocation of our Qing Sect for a long time to come?! You actually made those of us who are strong go down and those of weak go up?!"
"Even if you're just settling a personal score, can't you put that aside for a moment? Do you know how important this matter is? How could you act so recklessly!"
"How can someone like you, who can't even separate personal matters from official business, be the team leader for this competition? You're deliberately making things difficult for us!"
