Chapter 680: The Butterfly Slave (47)
The most popular items among girls are various desserts and milk tea, and hot pot is also a hot item. It is especially suitable for disciples to gather. This is not the first time Wen Wan has heard disciples from other sects shouting that they want to stay in Tianli Sect and never want to leave again.
It's outrageous that the disciples of the Li Clan were eating such a good meal in private.
As the appointed time drew closer, more and more disciples from various sects arrived. Several other major sects also sent disciples, as did some top-tier sects.
Even sect leaders and sect masters came.
Gu Liuyun also emerged from seclusion. This time, the sect leader allowed Gu Liuyun to participate, but not as a contestant. Instead, he was to lead the disciples of the Tianli Sect. Other sects used elders, but the Tianli Sect used Gu Liuyun. It has to be said that this disciple's status truly surpasses that of all other disciples.
Gu Liuyun's current strength is far more terrifying than before.
Gu Liuyun saw Wen Wan drinking milk tea while telling him all sorts of gossip, even about which sect elder had cheated on the sect leader, which disciple had slept with his master's wife, and so on.
Gu Liuyun sighed, "Where did you get all these strange things from?"
"The cafeteria! You wouldn't believe how much gossip there is."
Gu Liuyun: "..."
Aren't you going to cultivate?
Wen Wan: "I didn't slack off, but you have to balance work and rest. Besides, as an insignificant new disciple, I'm mainly here to experience the atmosphere. This competition for first place is naturally the domain of the senior brothers and sisters."
Gu Liuyun knew that this person hadn't put his heart into cultivation. Despite having such great talent, he just wanted to play and eat every day.
"Have you mastered the third level of the Floating Pagoda Technique?"
Wen Wan: "What do you mean? Senior brother, you wouldn't be going to..."
What happened next drove Wen Wan to the brink of collapse. Gu Liuyun was clearly very busy, but he still took two hours out of his time to give Wen Wan special training, which drove her crazy. She avoided Gu Liuyun and simply refused to stay by his side.
However, there was no way around it. Because of their shared magical powers, Gu Liuyun could always find Wen Wan's hiding place and then bring her back for extra training.
Wen Wan was almost going crazy.
Besides Gu Liuyun, Wen Wan was surprised to find that her master was also a "tiger parent" who pushed his child to excel.
"Ah Yuan! You can't let Lin Yuan Peak down this time!"
Wen Wan: "Aren't Chu Yao and Senior Brother Lin Sheng still here? And Senior Sister Lu Ping too."
Gao Linyuan: "They should also work hard, but you are the strongest among my new disciples, so I have high expectations for you. You must get first place among the new students!"
Wen Yan: "..."
Does Master have some misunderstanding about her? How could she possibly get first place?
"I believe you. You have been personally instructed by Elder Qian and possess the unique skills of the Elder of the Spirit Realm. If you can't win, then don't come back to see me. Also, your daily cultivation time will be doubled from now on."
Wen Yan: "???"
"Master, why don't you just kill me?"
The other senior brothers and sisters on the side all laughed, and Wen Wan really wanted to roll her eyes.
"If you win, I will also give you a reward."
Wen Wan: "I don't need a reward, just give me a holiday."
Gao Linyuan: "..." Useless, really useless. How could I have taken in such a useless little disciple?
...
Finally, the time came for the Immortal Sect Tournament to begin.
The venue was enormous, consisting of a main arena and four auxiliary arenas. Countless disciples from different sects surrounded the arenas. At the very top, in the center, was the sect leader of the Tianli Sect, while the sect leaders of the other four major sects stood to the side.
This is considered the most powerful force in the world.
Wen Wan was lifted up early in the morning and placed in the position of a Tianli Sect disciple. Gu Liuyun stood at the very front. Unlike the other old men who were leading the way, he was too young, but no one thought he was unqualified.
After all, his strength is such that reaching the mid-stage of the Martial God Realm at his age is truly a once-in-a-millennium genius.
It's a good thing he didn't participate, otherwise this championship would have been a foregone conclusion.
Besides Gu Liuyun, elders from the other four peaks sat in front, while Wen Wan stood behind Gao Linyuan, also surprised by the grand scale of this Immortal Sect Competition.
"So many people, how long will this competition take?"
Chu Yao: "It will take at least three days to compete."
"Three days? Master, can I slip away first? I have urgent business."
Gao Linyuan: "What's the rush? You want to go play and slack off again? Let me tell you, if you dare to take a single step before you win the freshman championship, I'll break your legs."
Wen Yan: "..."
When the other elders heard Gao Linyuan's words, they laughed and said, "Elder Linyuan, you're not taking us seriously! My disciple is no worse than yours, and this championship may not necessarily be yours."
Gao Linyuan: "Then we'll wait and see."
Wen Yan: "..."
Why is she the victim in this power struggle among the elders? Is there no justice in this world?
With a command from the Sect Master of Tianli Sect, the Immortal Sect Competition officially began.
Above the arena, a huge list appeared, showing all the participants and their respective sects.
The first thing to happen was, naturally, the struggle between the new students.
Only new disciples who are no older than thirty and have been in the sect for no more than two years are eligible to participate.
"If there are any violations of the regulations, how can this be found out? There are so many people involved."
Lin Sheng: "Junior Sister, please stop joking. If we can't even do this much, how can our Tianli Sect become the number one sect in the world?"
Wen Yan: "..."
Wen Wan also got her own sign.
A red sign that reads "Tianli Sect Wen Yuan".
The first round was a free-for-all. Wen Wan was shocked when she first learned about it, but without a doubt, this was the simplest way to eliminate most of the disciples in the first round. Otherwise, there were several hundred new students from Tianli Sect alone, and they were the ones selected to be qualified to participate in the Immortal Sect Conference. Other sects also had several hundred, and even small sects had dozens. All of them would add up to tens of thousands. If they didn't do a big screening, it would take forever to compete.
There are five arenas, and only fifty people can remain in each arena at the end, for a total of two hundred and fifty people to advance to the next round.
This elimination rate is simply astonishing.
Gao Linyuan gave instructions to Wen Wan and the other two, while the other elders also gave instructions to their personal disciples, as well as to the other new disciples.
The first hurdle requires cooperation.
Otherwise, even if you're strong enough to fight alone, you can't defeat so many people. If you get seriously injured, your identity card will break, and if you give up your identity card, it will also break. You can't take someone's life, but apart from that, there aren't many rules. For example, if you cripple someone, that's also within the rules.
