"Sect Master Shen's daughter is indeed extraordinary." Jiang Wensheng, the head of the Jiang family, said in a leisurely voice that reached Shen Daochen's ears.
Liang Yue, the sect leader of the weapon refining sect, also said, "The Flying Cloud Sect's points are truly outstanding. Congratulations, Sect Leader Shen."
On the surface, their words were full of praise, but they seemed to contain another layer of meaning.
The sect that won first place in the previous competition makes such petty decisions.
Even Guan Hui, the sect leader of the Beast Taming Sect, secretly mocked, "Short-sighted."
At this moment, the Heavenly Sword Sect and other teams have already crossed the Profound level area and are about to reach the Earth level area, preparing to collect Earth-grade materials.
The Flying Cloud Sect has fallen far behind in the journey.
Although this region is rich in resources, there is still a difference between those who arrive first and those who arrive later.
Upon hearing those words, Shen Daochen's expression naturally became even more unpleasant.
He certainly understood that Bai Mumu's decision was inappropriate, but Bai Mumu represented his and the Flying Cloud Sect's reputation, so he still defended her, saying, "You flatter me."
"This is my daughter's first time participating in such a competition. Her performance is not particularly impressive. She has not yet been able to demonstrate many of her abilities. It's too early to tell what she's capable of."
The implication was that it was only the beginning, so why were they in such a hurry? They would naturally see Bai Mumu's excellence later.
However, he was also somewhat dissatisfied with Bai Mumu's performance.
Well, at least I got those points. As for those materials, what resources doesn't the Flying Cloud Sect have?
As long as we can maintain our first place and suppress Ninghua Sect, that will be enough.
Shen Daochen could only convince himself in this way.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Wensheng and Liang Yue silently rolled their eyes. In their opinion, Bai Mumu was no match for Chen Sangruo.
I don't know what Shen Daochen was thinking, that he would let such a person become the young sect leader.
If things continue like this, I'm afraid the Flying Cloud Sect will be completely ruined by the father and daughter sooner or later, while Shen Sangruo will lead the Ninghua Sect forward.
Within the secret realm.
The rapid increase in points made the Flying Cloud Sect disciples extremely arrogant.
Bai Mumu's decision not only salvaged her reputation but also restored her authority within the team.
"With Junior Sister Bai leading the way, we will definitely be able to surpass that Ninghua Sect and win first place in the sect competition!"
"Don't even mention it. Those few people from Ninghua Sect have probably already been eliminated by someone else, hahaha."
"Exactly, does Chen Sangri think she can compete with our Junior Sister Bai? She found a small, shabby sect, won first place in the individual disciple competition, and thinks she's someone important?"
"This kind of unlucky thing will probably drag the Ninghua Sect down with it and make it despised by the world."
In the past few days, due to Shen Sanruo's powerful and amazing strength, although the cultivators have changed their opinions of her somewhat, the public opinion has never stopped.
Behind the scenes, the disciples of the Flying Cloud Sect undoubtedly played a crucial role in stirring things up.
Back when the young sect leader was competing, the four letters of repentance and the confrontation with Lingxiao Zhenren caused quite a stir.
They all knew why she severed her master-disciple relationship with Master Lingxiao, but when others asked, they all said it was because she was expelled from the sect for misconduct.
After all, those things were nothing short of a stain on Zhenlin Peak, and therefore a stain on Feiyun Sect. So of course they had to stand on Feiyun Sect's side.
Bai Mumu clearly appreciated these words.
"That Chen Sangruo... Ouch!" Someone wanted to continue stomping on Chen Sangruo, but the next moment someone punched him in the head, causing him to let out a wail.
This scene immediately caused those on Fengling Platform to exclaim in alarm: "Fighting has broken out within the Flying Cloud Sect!"
"Where's the fighting going? What happened? Let me see!"
Countless cultivators looked toward the projection window where the Flying Cloud Sect was located.
The man who had been hit turned around, clutching his cheek, and saw Lu Shiqing staring at him with cold, sinister eyes.
I immediately got goosebumps all over.
"Don't let me hear you slander her again," Lu Shiqing warned through gritted teeth.
Feng Heyun, Wen Xuan, and Luo Chu also stood beside Lu Shiqing, their faces cold and filled with anger.
"If you want to criticize Ninghua Sect, then criticize Ninghua Sect. Why involve Chen Sangruo?" Feng Heyun's cheeks were slightly flushed, as if he had drunk quite a bit of wine. His eyes, due to drunkenness, lost their usual casualness.
"Xiao Ruo will return to Feiyun Sect sooner or later. What is the meaning of your hostility towards her?" Wen Xuan was unusually serious and questioned her sternly.
"Do you think we're all deaf?" Luo Chu scoffed.
Although he was still angry at being ruthlessly ousted by Shen Sangruo yesterday, he still chose to defend her.
I was deeply moved by my own magnanimous and affectionate actions, which showed that I had not held a grudge.
"If we hear you speaking ill of her again, we will not be polite to you." Feng Heyun glanced at everyone in front of him.
The other Flying Cloud Sect disciples looked at each other in bewilderment.
They are all disciples, but just because Feng Heyun and the others are disciples of Lingxiao Zhenren, they are considered superior to them and act so arrogantly towards them.
But they dared not show it on their faces, and could only grumble in their hearts.
When they were insulting Shen Sangruo, they insulted her quite a bit. How come they suddenly became such great senior brothers after Shen Sangruo left?
Pshaw, Shen Sangri has real senior brothers and sisters by his side now, what kind of senior brothers are these guys?
After their initial disdain, everyone's gaze turned to Bai Mumu.
Where does this leave Bai Mumu?
Everyone fell silent, and the atmosphere gradually became awkward.
Bai Mumu's fingernails dug deeply into her palms. This was during a team competition, with so many eyes watching from the Fengling Platform. Yet, they were having a conflict with their own team members over the sake of another team's young master.
Isn't this a blatant slap in her face?
Even though she had already given up on winning over the four men, a surge of anger instantly welled up in her heart.
She gave a warning smile.
"Brothers, don't forget why you're standing here. Before you've even encountered any other teams, you're already having internal conflicts. Wouldn't that make you a laughingstock?"
"Alright, let's leave this matter here. Come with me to continue plundering points."
Just as Bai Mumu was about to lead her team to find other sects at the border of Xuan and Huang, Lu Shiqing reached out and blocked her way.
"Are you planning to stay here indefinitely?" he asked coldly.
"These are all small, weak sects. It would be easy for them to plunder points here. Why can't we stay here?" Bai Mumu retorted, her tone laced with sarcasm.
“The sects of the Heavenly Sword Sect are all heading towards the Earthly Realm. We have lingered here for too long and have already fallen behind them.” Wen Xuan was relatively rational and tried to communicate with Bai Mumu.
Unexpectedly, Bai Mumu scoffed, "All you want to do is go find Chen Sangruo, why bother with these high-sounding reasons?"
Seeing that Bai Mumu had seen through his intentions, Luo Chu said directly, "Didn't Sect Master Shen specifically instruct us to target Ninghua Sect? We were just following the Sect Master's orders."
