It also meant that that day was the unrecognized registered disciple competition of the Heavenly Sword Sect when the bell rang. The Heavenly Sword Sect would invite important people from the four great sects of the eastern lands to observe the competition.

The so-called disciple competition was to display the super talent of the Heavenly Sword Sect’s disciples and show off to the other sects.

The second reason was to select outstanding disciples from the sect and become the disciples of the sect’s elders.

That was a grand occasion to these disciples.

Therefore, most of the inner disciples in the entire sect would be attracted each time it was held.

And the unrecognized registered disciple competition made the entire sect revel in joy this time.

After all, for these unrecognized registered disciples who weren’t even considered outer sect disciples, the previous competition was between outer disciples and inner disciples. They didn’t have a chance to show their ability.

Moreover, the elders of the sect had already announced that anyone who achieved good results in this competition would be accepted as their disciples before the unrecognized registered disciple tournament began.

Their future achievements would be high if they could become the personal disciple of any elder.

The default rule was that body-refining warriors could not be compared to Qi-refining cultivators in this Xianxia world. And among cultivators who refined their Qi, sword cultivators had unparalleled offensive techniques with the same level of cultivation!

It could be said that this was a chance for the sect to have both reputation and strength.

Think about it, who would not want to ride a sword and fly in the world through the nineteen prefectures.

Therefore, every sword worship assembly of the Xuan Sword Sect would attract many disciples, especially outer disciples.

Because that was the only chance they could change their fate.

They hoped that the elders would like them and change their fate.

Of course, they would lose their life most of the time in such battle. And they wouldn’t be favored by the elders at all, let alone being the elders’ disciples.

But even so, it was enough to make the outer disciples extremely excited even if it was only the slightest chance.

The sword sect disciples were all immersed in the excitement and joy of the upcoming disciple competition at that moment.

Several sect elders arrived one by one under the leadership of sect leader Chen Xuanfeng.

The Heavenly Sword Sect’s triennial disciple competition had officially begun!

“Fellow disciples, today is the official opening of our Heavenly Sword Sect’s disciple competition. I hope that everyone can seize this opportunity. You can obtain a Supreme Elder’s Dragon Blood Spirit Sword and a bottle of Dragon Blood Treasure Pill if you can obtain a good ranking in this competition.”

Chen Xuanfeng was satisfied upon looking at the burning eyes of the disciples. Then, he brought out another piece of shocking news.

“There is news apart from the treasure this time. It is that you can become my disciple.”

The atmosphere froze, and everyone held their breaths after Chen Xuanfeng said that.

That was the personal disciple of the sect leader. One must know that Chen Xuanfeng had never accepted a disciple. That meant that the disciple would be the next sect leader.

For a moment, the disciples were all determined to get that.

At this moment, a clear and domineering voice came from the void.

“Hahaha, as expected of the sect leader of sword cultivation. The reward is big for this disciple competition.” A voice came from the void.

Then, the void was torn apart bit by bit as everyone was shocked.

A middle-aged man in a black robe walked out from the void. He stood in the sky above the martial arts practice field, and the patterns under his feet were continuously condensing!

The person who came was He Tiannian, the sect master of the Spiritual Array Sect.

“It’s Sect Master He. It seems that your Spiritual Array Sect’s spatial technique has become more and more advanced.” Chen Xuanfeng said to Li Changqing indifferently.

The He Hundred-Year’s cultivation was at the Fifth Level of the True Spirit Realm, one level higher than Chen Xuanfeng, but because Chen Xuanfeng was a sword cultivator.

Thus, the two were unable to determine who was stronger.

Huangfu Longdou glanced at He Hundred-Year’s spatial technique. It was extremely crude, and it was even more trash compared to his void technique.

Seeing this, he couldn’t help but shake his head in disappointment.

At this moment, a wild voice sounded from beneath the training ground.

“Hmph! Old fellow He, I wouldn’t have let you arrive earlier than me if I hadn’t met an interesting demonic beast and tangled with it for a moment.”

Then, there was an explosion.

The smoke lingered.

A three-meter-wide hole was blasted open on the ground.

Everyone found a black-faced man sitting on a five-meter-long golden lion with a pale-yellow demonic core in his hand after the dust dispersed.

What was shocking was that this man with the name, Li Zaiye’s cultivation had already reached the Sixth Level of the True Spirit Realm!

The Golden Lion under him was also at Third Level True Spirit Realm!

Beside Li Zaiye was a young man who looked as arrogant as him.

“Humph, Li Zaiye, sect master of Hundred Beasts Sect.” Chen Xuanfeng squinted his eyes and suppressed the anger in his heart.

Many years ago, he was attacked by demonic beasts in the Demonic Beast Forest. It was most likely done by this person.

He would probably be dead by now if it wasn’t for Huangfu Long’s kind-hearted treatment at that time.

How would Chen Xuanfeng have a good impression of Li Zaiye under such enmity? It was considered peaceful that they didn’t beat each other up.

“Sect Leader Chen. I wonder if the Heavenly Sword Sect would welcome me who was uninvited.” Li Zanye raised his eyebrows and spoke.

“Whoever attends is our guest. Please take a seat.” Chen Xuanfeng replied indifferently.

“Hahaha, I’ll accept your offer then.”

Li Zaiye swaggered in under Chen Xuanfeng’s indifferent gaze.

“Fellow buddy Chen, I hope I’m not late.” A few more words came from the sky above the sect.

However, a few more figures came from afar before Chen Xuanfeng could reply.

Herb Valley, Raging Flame Sect…

These sects were even more inferior compared to the Heavenly Sword Sect.

However, each of them seemed to have a strange intention.

It was as if they were not guests but masters.

Could it be that they wanted to see the Heavenly Sword Sect’s reunion and then humiliate the Heavenly Sword Sect during the competition between the four great sects?

Chen Xuanfeng raised his brows and knew that something was going to happen.

His gaze kept wandering around the disciples under the training hall, hoping to find a disciple with good aptitude and strength to bring back the sect’s reputation.

However, what disappointed him was that there weren’t many unrecognized registered disciples in front of him who could bring out their talents.

Especially Huangfu Longdou, the little baldy. He didn’t have any cultivation, yet he insisted on having a hairstyle like this. He would be easily noticed in the crowd.

He became more and more disappointed with these unrecognized registered disciples.

Huangfu Longdou was also somewhat disinterested at that moment.

These big shots of Eastern Greenland had been like an unattainable mountain in his heart when he did not have the system previously. Now that he had activated the self-discipline system, these sect masters and elders were as tiny as a grain of sand.

That made him extremely disappointed. He would not participate in this disciple competition if it were not for this body’s obsession.

Chen Xuanfeng’s voice rang out in the training hall just as he was about to leave.

“The Heavenly Sword Sect’s unrecognized registered disciple competition has officially begun!”
