The man in front of me chuckled: "We in the Southern Continent value both offense and defense. After all, when danger comes, even a weak alchemist must be able to protect himself. Unlike the Six Sects, if one day demonic cultivators use force against the Pill Cauldron Sect, wouldn't the Pill Cauldron Sect be powerless to resist?"
Hearing him say that, the Dan Ding Sect disciples below clenched their fists in anger.
The man remained unconcerned and continued, "As for the Myriad Swords Sect, it's the same. What's the use of just mindlessly throwing swords? The Six Sects Grand Competition is even more meaningless. In such a competition, alchemists and weapon refiners are destined to be at the bottom. It's better not to compete at all!"
"Wow...this guy is so arrogant!" Long Aotian put down the coffin and came over to join in the fun.
"They probably want to give the disciples from other continents a warning before the academy is established," Jiang Xi pointed out accurately, even though he couldn't see them. Without Tian Ning needing to ask further, he said:
"Actually, this year's Six Sects Competition is quite special. There have been rumors that the representatives from the five continents have unanimously agreed to set up an academy. After the competition, the sect leaders will select a group of outstanding disciples to go to the academy."
"As for the purpose of establishing the academy, it's because the Five Continents have always only focused on their own small territory and lacked any cohesion. But in recent years, the Demon Realm has become increasingly ambitious, so the old folks wanted to establish an academy to enhance communication among the Five Continents, so that when we need to deal with the Demon Realm in the future, we will all work together more closely!"
Previously, the Sword Protection Mountain had never even considered participating in the Six Sects Grand Competition, so Tianning had never heard his senior brothers and sisters mention this matter.
"Normally, all the competitions across the five continents start at the same time, but we've had a lot going on this year, including dealing with those filthy demonic cultivators. So, while the other continents have finished their competitions, our individual competitions aren't over yet," Ge Gang sighed.
"I'm afraid it's not just people from the Southern Continent; there might be people from other continents mixed in with this group."
Everyone: "..."
Seeing that the disciple of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect above didn't want to compete anymore, he was instead mocked by the other side: So the disciples of the six sects of the Eastern Continent are so useless? They don't even have the guts to compete twice?
This is absolutely outrageous!
Shi Qinxin asked, "Don't any of our six sects have practitioners of dual cultivation who can go up and save face?"
You should know that when she couldn't wield a sword, she even learned how to concoct poisons!
“I’m gone,” Zhou Han said calmly. “That person won the competition he was in, but the other one ended in a draw, and those shameless people still said it didn’t count. It’s not like he won both matches.”
Shi Qinxin: "..."
No wonder everyone is gathered here so angrily...
However, the practice of cultivating both aspects simultaneously is indeed a weakness of the six sects, and the sect leaders focus more on perfecting one aspect of cultivation.
"Junior Sister, are you going to go?"
Just as everyone was discussing, Long Aotian blurted out a sentence.
Everyone looked over and saw that Tianning had already taken out that familiar iron sword.
"That's right! Little Ningning, don't you also know how to refine pills?"
Qin Ling immediately perked up. She had heard her master mention that she had seen Tian Ning refine pills and receive a blessing from the Heavenly Dao when they were in the Return Journey Secret Realm.
Wasn't the first opponent up there a master of both swordsmanship and alchemy?!
"Tianning, go!" Xu Jiaojiao shouted immediately, "If you win, I'll give you my most treasured magic weapon!"
Ge Gang chimed in, "That's right! Let's show these idiots the power of our Six Sects!"
Leng Hong, who had appeared out of nowhere on the rooftop, exclaimed, "Our Ten Thousand Swords Sect is truly formidable!"
Fu Hongming emphasized: "It's our Hujian Mountain that's so powerful!"
Tianning: "..."
She was just looking at the leader's long, flowing, jet-black hair, and it got a little itchy to touch it...
