New and old grudges combined.
As Qin Chuan and his group approached, Su Daiyuan and his group of five were already poised to attack.
Shi Yueyao immediately spotted Sheng Ning, who was being protected by Su Daiyuan and the other four.
A red light flashed in her eyes, and she raised her head, her small face showing an arrogant expression. "You senior brothers are too kind."
"We just heard that the Invincible Sect is very powerful, so we came here specifically to have a match with a few of our senior brothers."
What a fine gesture!
If there was no murderous intent in their eyes, then Sheng Ning and the other six would probably believe it.
Yu Ye and the other four weren't fools either. After hearing what Shi Yueyao said, Yu Ye let out a light sneer.
"Is it really just a sparring match? Then our Invincible Sect concedes defeat, and your Taixu Sect is the number one, the boss."
The word "first" stung Qin Chuan and the others instantly.
In previous sect competitions, the Taixu Sect has never achieved second place.
If it weren't for Sheng Ning's unexpected presence, they wouldn't have been laughed at by the Dingtian Sect for so long...
His hands were clenched so tightly they cracked, and his knuckles turned white.
Xi Zhen spoke in a deep voice, "Enough with the nonsense! I won't allow you to admit defeat!"
The disciples from various sects outside the arena were immediately astonished upon seeing this.
"What's going on? Is the Taixu Sect going to openly take action against the smaller sects? Just because they didn't get first place and feel they've lost face?"
"Qin Chuan, as a late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator and the eldest disciple of the Taixu Sect, not only did he not step forward to stop it, but he also joined his fellow disciples in bullying a small sect?"
"This is outrageous! Just because a large sect can bully a small sect doesn't mean they can do whatever they want! Do they think small sects are weak and helpless?!"
In the past, during the sect competitions, smaller sects were always just there to make up the numbers.
If it weren't for the fact that the spiritual treasures obtained after entering the secret realm could be brought back to the sect, they wouldn't have wanted to come here and embarrass themselves.
Now, with great difficulty, a small sect has surpassed the four major sects and even the Taixu Sect.
As a result, the four major sects could not afford to lose and wanted to kill the six people from Shengning.
A chorus of protests erupted from the stands. This was the first time Elder Qian and his companions had encountered such a scene, and they were momentarily flustered. They immediately raised their hands and used their spiritual power to suppress the protesters.
"Shut up!"
However, it was no use.
Elder Qian's suppression of spiritual power did not stop these cultivators.
Instead, they made things even worse.
Some even attempted to take up their swords and attack the four major sects.
If the four elders hadn't intervened in time, the scene would probably have turned into a brawl.
Unlike the commotion outside the venue.
The secret realm was completely silent.
The gentle breeze gradually turned into a strong wind, ruffling the long hair of Sheng Ning and the others.
Yu Ye narrowed his eyes and looked at the person in front of him, a mocking smile on his lips. "You say you won't allow it, but are you my father or my mother?"
Everyone in the Invincible Sect knew that Yu Ye had no parents since childhood, and the only old beggar who raised him had long since passed away.
However, Xi Zhen and the others were unaware of this.
Hearing Yu's fearless statement, coupled with the fact that he had easily defeated him on the competition stage before, he felt a surge of emotion.
Xi Zhen's throat bobbed, and he raised his hand to throw the talisman in his hand.
"Xi Zhen".
Qin Chuan raised his hand to stop him, "Don't act rashly."
Seeing this, Sheng Ning guessed that they were planning to attack the Invincible Sect when the surrounding environment changed.
Because at that time, the Heavenly Dao would not detect people fighting in the secret realm.
Many cultivators have died in secret realms before, all of them dying mysteriously after the environment changed.
Unfortunately, the recording stone on the arena malfunctioned at that time, and they were helpless due to the lack of evidence, so they could only let the sect disciples die in vain.
Sheng Ning glanced at the sky and smiled slightly, "Fellow Daoist Qin, what do you think of the sky tonight?"
Qin Chuan, seeing that she suddenly changed the subject, assumed she was nervous and did not answer her question.
On the contrary, several disciples of the Taixu Sect beside him couldn't help but scoff.
"What time is it? Still looking at the sky? They're really courting death."
"Let her see it a little longer; after tonight, she won't be able to see it anymore."
Even Shi Yueyao thought Sheng Ning was desperate, and looked at Sheng Ning with a smirk as if she were looking at a dead man.
Until a tremor came from beneath their feet, the surrounding spiritual energy gradually shifted from a rich wood-elemental energy to an earth-elemental energy.
"Senior brothers, take off your hairbands to cover your eyes."
Sheng Ning used telepathy to remind Su Daiyuan and the other four, and they all took off their hairbands to cover their eyes.
The higher a cultivator's cultivation level, the farther they can see.
People have long been accustomed to relying on their eyes and ears, but they have never thought that hearing would become more sensitive after blocking one sense.
When Shi Yueyao and the others saw Sheng Ning and the others cover their eyes with hair ribbons, they felt disdain.
"Senior Brother, they must be covering their eyes because they're afraid of seeing bloodshed. Is the time here? Can we make our move?"
Xi Zhen was getting impatient.
When he was in the Taixu Sect, he boasted that he was a genius and that among all the talisman cultivators, he had the highest talent.
Until he saw Yu Ye.
While the other talisman cultivators were wiping the cold sweat from their foreheads as they drew talismans, he was casually greeting his fellow disciples in the stands.
In the end, he casually drew a talisman that could turn beans into soldiers, easily crushing him.
The skills of talisman cultivation, artifact cultivation, and alchemy cultivation are all extremely rare on the continent.
Because all three require strong mental strength, they cannot use swords like sword cultivators, nor are they as skilled as martial arts cultivators.
They can only rely on talismans, elixirs, and the protection of artifact spirits.
Of the three, those of higher rank can still gain respect, while those of lower rank are more likely to perish.
Xi Zhen was that high-level talisman cultivator.
Whether in the Taixu Sect or other sects, he was always the one who was respected.
