When Sheng Ning and his group left the secret realm, they still did not see any disciples of the Taixu Sect.
Ultimately, Taixu Sect came in last with a score of 51.
On the contrary, it was the Invincible Sect's score.
"Ones, tens, hundreds, thousands, father, mother, grandfather..."
There were people in the stands counting the points that the Invincible Sect had earned in the secret realm.
It should be noted that in recent years, the Taixu Sect has basically been the first in the sect competitions.
The Taixu Sect is strong overall, with alchemy and talisman cultivators, as well as several sword cultivators.
Entering the secret realm is equivalent to becoming invincible.
Now that the disciples of the Taixu Sect have mysteriously disappeared, if it weren't for the fact that the life tablets belonging to Qin Chuan and the others in the Taixu Sect were still lit up, Elder Qian would have already blown up the arena in a fit of rage.
Elder Fu of Dingtian Sect sat next to Elder Qian, who was furious.
Seeing the latter's face turn red with anger, he smiled and said to him, "Young man, good fortune will always be with you. Elder Qian, don't be so irritable."
Elder Qian stared at the score of Dingtian Sect on the leaderboard, his head practically steaming with rage.
Elder Qian clenched his fists so tightly that his knuckles cracked, and he took a deep breath to avoid crushing Elder Fu's head.
“If it weren’t for your Dingtian Sect disciples being trapped in the secret realm, of course you wouldn’t be so irritable.”
Elder Fu raised an eyebrow upon hearing this, "Who said my Dingtian Sect disciples aren't inside? My disciple Xie Wenxuan is also still in the secret realm."
There's another disciple from the Dingtian Sect; both of their life tablets are still lit up. At worst, they can just wait for the secret realm to reopen in three years and then come out from inside.
Xie Wenxuan was the chief disciple of the Dingtian Sect.
Elder Qian, who was just a moment ago thinking of fighting Elder Fu to the death, suddenly felt a sense of kinship.
Even though he was still dissatisfied with those foolish sword cultivators from the Dingtian Sect, wondering why they could get second place.
Elder Qian took a deep breath, looked up at him, and asked, "Aren't you in a hurry?"
"No rush," Elder Fu said nonchalantly. "As the saying goes, fools are often blessed. My disciple will surely be safe and sound."
Elder Qian: ......
"My disciples from the Taixu Sect are all intelligent people!" Elder Qian roared.
Elder Fu snorted and stopped fighting him. He waved to him and turned around, beaming, towards the four of them, including Nanxing.
As soon as Sheng Ning and his companions emerged from the secret realm and were still standing on the arena, they felt the gazes from all directions and the noisy whispers.
Bai Ze, nestled in her arms, frowned, his little face showing dissatisfaction. "Why are there so many people?"
He had never seen so many people before.
Immortals are mostly solitary beings, and only gather together on very rare occasions.
Before Sheng Ning could even turn her head, she felt the resentful gazes from her side. When she turned around, she saw the disciples of the Taixu Sect and Elder Qian staring at her.
The Taixu Sect's plan to kill Sheng Ning in the secret realm failed.
Elder Qian was so angry that his eyes widened as if they were about to burst out of their sockets.
"This is the enemy you're talking about?"
Bai Ze frowned and bared his teeth at Elder Qian and the others.
It doesn't look fierce; instead, it has a rather cute appearance.
Sheng Ning nodded and said bluntly, "They want to kill me."
"He wouldn't dare!" Bai Ze's eyes widened. "I disagree!"
His childish voice was so cute that it tickled Sheng Ning's ears, and she couldn't help but reach out and pinch his cheek.
"Lord Bai Ze, we can't defeat him."
The implication was that if Elder Qian truly wanted her dead, even if Bai Ze was a divine beast and couldn't stop Elder Qian, she would still have to die.
Her words made Su Daiyuan and the others next to her frown.
Even the usually silent Kong Wu chimed in with a comment.
"This concerns the balance of relations between sects, so the Taixu Sect will not take action against the Invincible Sect for the time being."
In the past, the Invincible Sect was just a small sect, and the Taixu Sect could destroy it at will.
The annihilation of the Invincible Sect will not only fail to create a sense of crisis for other sects, but will also make smaller sects feel that the world is a dog-eat-dog world.
The Invincible Sect was too weak, so it deserved to be wiped out.
But things are different now.
The Invincible Sect shone brightly in the sect competition, breaking the record set in the sect competition for several years.
If the Taixu Sect dares to attack the Invincible Sect now, it means that the Taixu Sect cannot tolerate any dissent.
As the leader of the four major sects, he was so enraged by losing a sect competition that he wanted to wipe out a small sect.
If other sects found out, they would surely rise up and attack the Taixu Sect.
An invincible sect was wiped out just as it was beginning to show its power. If they do not resist, they will be the ones to be wiped out in the future.
The idea of emptiness is not without reason.
Su Daiyuan raised his eyes and glanced at Elder Qian, who was holding back his emotions on the platform, and said in a deep voice, "Junior Sister, we should go back."
I haven't been back to the Invincible Sect for so long, I wonder how my master is doing.
Sheng Ning had no objections, but she had one more thing to do before leaving.
Her gaze landed precisely on a corner of the stands, where she looked at the disciples dressed in different colored sect robes and grinned.
"Please wait a moment, senior brothers, I'll be right back."
Perhaps Sheng Ning's gaze was too intense, because the few cultivators huddled in the corner were about to flee the scene on the spot.
Unfortunately, their speed was far inferior to Sheng Ning's.
They had just turned around and lifted their feet to run when Sheng Ning, who had been standing on the arena, was now standing in front of them.
"A ghost!"
One of the monks was frightened.
After letting out a scream, he immediately tumbled off the stands, moving even faster than they were running away.
The other cultivators, seeing this, ...
Sheng Ning lifted his robe and knelt down in front of the cultivator he had recently made a bet with. "Fellow Daoist, it's been a long time."
The cultivator had no choice but to bite the bullet and greet Sheng Ning, "Yes... it's been a long time."
Sheng Ning nodded, a smile playing on her lips, and opened her palm to him. "Since we've met again by chance, let's settle our scores, fellow Daoist."
The cultivator felt a chill run down his spine upon hearing this.
No one expected that the Invincible Sect, a small sect, would actually take first place.
They not only won first place, but also broke the record for the sect competition.
That score is probably one that won't be seen again for another ten thousand years.
The cultivator swallowed hard and chuckled, "Fellow Daoist, you've obtained so many treasures in the secret realm, you shouldn't be short of spirit stones, right?"
Sheng Ning is indeed not short of money.
but......
"What does the treasure we found in the secret realm have to do with our bet?"
"Fellow Daoist, you're not going to renege on your debt, are you?"
With a forced smile, Sheng Ning pointed to the arena behind him and said, "My senior brothers are all watching you."
Coercion and enticement.
Having received ten thousand spirit stones from the cultivator and also taken a mustard seed bag, Sheng Ning raised his hand and patted the other person on the shoulder.
"Thank you for your sponsorship, fellow Daoist. When the Invincible Sect rebuilds its gate in the future, we will definitely have your name engraved on it."
After packing the mustard seed bag full of high-grade spirit stones, Sheng Ning turned and left the stands.
A few cultivators were left standing bewildered in the wind: Fellow Daoist, you still don't know our names?
