Even for those who had just entered the True God Realm, the days in the outer city of King City were definitely not comfortable.
Ferocious beasts were aggressive and occupied large areas of land and resources. The amount of land that could be cultivated was greatly reduced, and the number of cultivators that could be nurtured was naturally decreasing year by year.
Due to the legacy left behind by the ancestors, there were still many True God Realm warriors. However, if they did not have a strong sect or family to support them, they would not be able to cultivate further.
Only a small number of families had inheritances, so the competition between the sects was especially cruel.
Until now, there were only seven third-grade sects that had grown up in the nineteen outer cities.
These seven Third Grade Sects did not care about the matters in the inner city at all. They only focused on cultivating and earning merits in order to obtain the qualifications to enter the inner city.
From the original situation, it was unlikely that any of the sects would be able to advance to Third Grade within ten years. They were stable and stable, but due to the internal strife, they did not look down.
Until the rise of the Abandoned Sword Villa.
Everyone sensed a threat.
The True Hero Sect was an old sect in the outer city of King City. It had been established for more than a thousand years. At first, it was just a martial arts school where old masters taught their fist techniques. Now, it had developed into a large sect with more than a thousand disciples.
Sect Leader Ge Zhongwu had cultivated the Tyrant God Fist to great success and was one of the few Third Grade True Gods in the outer city.
His body was tall and sturdy, and his skin was dark bronze. His entire body seemed to be cast from iron, and he was currently in the state of perfection of his body and mind. It could also be the peak of his life.
Ge Zhongwu was clear that with his talent, reaching the Third Grade True God Realm was his limit. After that, unless he had a great opportunity, even if he trained bitterly for another three hundred years, he might not be able to advance any further.
Therefore, all he wanted was for the True Hero Sect to pass the Inter-Sect Competition and enter the inner city.
Currently, among the seven Third Grade Sects in the outer city, the True Hero Sect's overall strength was relatively superior. He was full of expectations for the future.
One day, when he was meditating at home, his son, Ge Xiaoding, suddenly rushed in with a face full of bad luck. He shouted as soon as he entered the courtyard, "Father, not good! Not good! "
Ge Zhongwu frowned. His only son's talent in martial arts was average. Even if he had been given all kinds of resources since he was young, it would not be of much use. He was also impatient and couldn't keep his composure. If he stayed in the outer city to inherit the sect, he might not even be able to reach his current level. At that time, the True Hero Sect would probably fall again.
— — Even if it was for this foolish son of his, he had to think of a way to take a gamble.
Ge Zhongwu sighed in his heart and said in a low voice, "Little Ding, what did I tell you? Everything is not in your heart. Why are you so flustered? Where is your propriety?"
Ge Xiaoding flashed into the quiet room where his father was. He wiped the sweat off his forehead and said anxiously, "Father, you don't know. Something big has happened. Today, a new sect has been promoted to Level 3!"
Ge Zhongwu was stunned.
The advancement of a sect was different from that of an individual's martial path. An individual's cultivation might have epiphanies and other opportunities. Breaking through the bottleneck in one go was rare, but it wasn't strange.
As for the promotion of a sect, it was mostly a slow accumulation of resources. It was impossible for there to be an explosive promotion. Currently, the seven third-grade sects in the outer city had to spend hundreds of years to gradually accumulate merits and be promoted to this level.
And now, a second-grade sect could be promoted …
Ge Zhongwu thought for a moment. "Not long ago, Wang Qizhi of the Beheading Sect just returned to the city. It has only been half a month. It can't be that they are the ones to be promoted, right?"
The Beheading Sect was founded less than a hundred years ago. There were two outstanding young people in the sect who supported each other. Not long ago, they even killed the Nine-Eyed Beast, which greatly increased the sect's merits. However, there was still a gap between them and a third-grade sect. In addition, the other second-grade sects shouldn't meet the requirements to be promoted.
Could it be that someone was so lucky and suddenly picked up a large amount of merits?
"No!"
Ge Xiaoding was excited and danced. "It's a new sect that no one has ever heard of. I just went to ask around. This so-called Abandoned Sword Villa was established less than half a month ago, and they received a mission to hunt Vicious Beasts. Just like that, they were promoted! "
Ge Zhongwu was even more surprised. He sneered and said, "How can this be? One mission to earn enough merits. Did he kill thousands of Vicious Beasts? Is he the commander of the Valiant Cavalry? "
He calculated. The amount of merits required to be promoted to a third-grade sect was an astronomical figure. Including the consumption, the Xiong Zhen Sect had to save for two hundred years to barely earn enough. Thus, the rewards and resources allowed him to break through the bottleneck and reach the third level of the True God Realm.
One mission to earn enough merits. Didn't that mean that he had to kill thousands of Vicious Beasts?
Even the Valiant Cavalry of the inner city could only kill a few hundred Vicious Beasts. This joke wasn't funny at all.
Ge Xiaoding slapped his thigh. "Father is indeed wise! He knows about the world without going out. It was their group that killed more than three thousand Vicious Beasts and brought more than three thousand Vicious Beasts to exchange for merits. Good heavens, that bunch of Vicious Beasts really blinded the eyes of others! "
"What?"
Ge Zhongwu suddenly stood up with a stern expression.
If what his son said was true …
"How many people are there? Who is the sect leader? Is he a nobleman from the inner city? No … even the inner city wouldn't be so generous … "
Ge Xiaoding was afraid of his father's prestige. It was impossible for him to deliberately come here to amuse him.
It would be great if this was someone from the inner city who came here to play. Otherwise, they would be a formidable opponent on their path to promotion!
Ge Xiaoding's expression was a little strange. The news he heard was indeed somewhat inexplicable.
"… There are only four people in this Abandoned Sword Villa. The sect leader is called Shen Zhenyi. It is said that he just ascended from the Moon Decapitation and arrived in the Seven Wounds World a few months ago. His cultivation isn't very high. I heard that he fought with Gongzi Kui and had a conflict with the Demonic Ghost. He is only a second level True God … "
What kind of joke was this?
Ge Zhongwu's eyes widened. Such a sect could kill more than three thousand Vicious Beasts and become a third-grade sect?
He didn't believe it. His first reaction was disbelief.
However, this matter was related to their sect. Ge Zhongwu didn't dare to be negligent. After thinking about it, he felt that his son was unreliable. He had to investigate it himself. He summoned his disciples and asked them to go around and gather information. They must find out the information about the Abandoned Sword Villa.
The sudden appearance of a third-grade sect couldn't be ignored.
Just as he was worried, someone suddenly came to report, "Young Master Sima of the Beheading Sect is here to see the sect leader."
"Sima You?"
Ge Zhongwu frowned, "Didn't the Beheading Sect just leave the city? I didn't hear that Wang Qi Zhi came back. Why is Sima You still in the city?"
He shook his head. This young man's identity was special. He didn't want to offend him. Although he was worried, he nodded and said, "Invite him in."
