"Sect competition?" Shen Ying's hand that was holding the pastry paused. "What's that?"
"It's equivalent to a competition of skills between sects," Lonemoon explained. "All sects and aristocratic families in the Upper Azure World can participate. There are three groups based on cultivation level: Qi Refinement, Foundation Establishment and Golden Core. The top three will be chosen. The organizers will sponsor the prizes. "
"Upper Azure World Olympics?"
"You could say that." He nodded. "It's just that the sect competition is only held once every ten years. This time, it's in three days."
"Oh …" Shen Ying looked disinterested. "Can we not go?"
"No!" Lonemoon glared at her. "I went to Upper Azure City yesterday to register for the competition under the name of Invincible Sect. This competition is organized by the Yin Family, one of the four aristocratic families. The venue is Yin Tian City. We have to set off tomorrow. "
As she spoke, she handed over the competition token.
Shen Ying did not take it. She glanced at the token with the word "competition" written on it. "That … why must we participate? We don't have many people. "Wouldn't it be better to stay at home and eat?
"You're asking me why?" Lonemoon exploded. "Don't you have any f * cking idea of the situation our sect is in? Including the three of us, there are only twelve people. It's been a whole year and only twelve people! You even made them freaking Body Cultivators. Does it look like a sect at all? "
"Er … twelve is not bad." Just enough to clean the house.
"Good my ass! Have you ever seen a sect with so few people? "Whenever he thought of the nine future Diamond Barbies, his liver would ache, okay? "If we don't do some advertising and make them popular, we'll never be able to recruit other disciples. What's more, I've tested the skills of the nine of them. Although it's a little difficult to challenge someone of a higher level, their foundations … are solid! " He gritted his teeth and spat out these two words. "Anyway, they have a lot of advantages when competing against people of the same level. I don't have high expectations for this competition. It's good enough if one of them can get into the top ten. At least let people know the strength of our Invincible Sect. "
"Oh …" So they're going to be advertising.
"That's why they're not the only ones participating. In order to prevent people from looking down on them, all of us have to go, including you!" With that, he grabbed her hand and shoved the token into her hand. "You'd better wake up early tomorrow, or else …" His expression darkened as he said, "Cancel next month's food allowance!"
Shen Ying stared blankly at him. Her lazy demeanor changed instantly, and she gripped her competition card tightly.
"Father Niu, you're absolutely right!" He turned to the person beside him and said seriously, "Chef, for the future of the sect, let's work overtime tonight! Hurry up and prepare some cold dishes, pastries, fast food, and fruits for the journey. We must not let our Olympic athletes starve! Understand? "
"Yes, Master. No problem, Master!"
Lonemoon: "…"
At the end of the day, he still couldn't forget to eat!

Yin Tian City was located in the east of the Upper Azure World and was considered the largest immortal city in the east. It took Shen Ying and the rest a whole day to reach the city before the sky turned dark.
The Yin Family was indeed the wealthiest of the four big families. From the moment they flashed their competition tokens, someone led them to an independent courtyard specially designed for the competitors to rest in. Although the courtyard was not as spacious as Invincible Sect's, it was more than enough for more than ten people to rest. What's more, each sect was independent. According to Lonemoon's inquiries, there were more than a thousand sects participating in the sect competition. It was clear how rich the Yin Family was.
"The competition will only start tomorrow. Everyone, rest well tonight." Lonemoon scanned the nine girls in front of him. Perhaps it was their first time participating in such a formal competition, they all seemed rather nervous. He could only comfort them in a low voice. "You're not bad at all. Just relax. It'll be good if you can get into the top ten. If you can't, just admit defeat. There's no need to fight. "
The few of them nodded. Whether intentionally or not, they glanced at Shen Ying at the side. Their eyes lit up. Lonemoon also subconsciously turned to look at her.
Shen Ying finished eating a fruit and looked up. Instantly, she saw a group of people staring at her. She choked. "Cough … what's the matter?"
The corner of Lonemoon's mouth twitched. He glared at her. "Don't you have something to give them?"
"Do … I?" What?
"Master, it's a defensive bell." Yi Qing took out a string of small bells that looked exactly the same as the one he had given her. "I refined this defensive Dharma artifact last night. It can block a full blow from a Nascent Soul cultivator."
"Although it's a righteous sect competition, we can't guarantee that there won't be any narrow-minded people who will try to kill you," Lonemoon explained. "Bring this defensive Dharma artifact with you during the competition, just in case."
Only then did Shen Ying remember that this was the sect's welfare that Father Niu had mentioned yesterday. She hurriedly took it, opened it, and distributed it to everyone.
The girl in red.
"Come, Little Red. Do your best!"
"Yes, Sect Master." She accepted it happily.
The girl in white.
"Little White, do your best!"
"Yes, Sect Master." She accepted it happily.
The girl in blue.
"Little Blue, do your best!"
"Yes, Sect Master." She accepted it happily.
The second girl in white.
"Little … Rabbit, do your best!"
"Yes, Sect Master." She accepted it happily.
…
Lonemoon: "…" Heh heh, he had already given up on a certain someone's method of recording names.
Shen Ying continued to distribute the bells. After she was done, she coughed and said in a rare serious tone, "The most important thing is to participate. As long as you work hard, the ranking is not important. After all, friendship comes first, competition comes second! I have high hopes for all of you. "
Everyone looked excited as they carefully kept the bells that Shen Ying had distributed into their arms, as if they had received some rare treasure. They were so excited that they could jump up and down if they were not careful. Their eyes lit up instantly, and they bowed to her in unison. Everyone began to express their determination.
"Thank you, Sect Master! We will work hard. "
"For Sect Master, for Invincible Sect!"
"Don't worry, Sect Master! We will definitely win glory for the sect! "
"We will bring Sect Master's blessings to participate in the competition."
"May Sect Master be with us!"
Lonemoon: "…"
Yi Qing: "…"
He was the one who led the team, and Yi Qing was the one who refined the weapons. What did this have to do with Shen Ying? Why do you all look so excited after receiving gifts from your idols?
MDZZ！

Because there were too few people, Invincible Sect only registered for the Foundation Establishment and Golden Core stages of the competition. Among them, Yu Hong, Si Yu, and two other girls were in the Golden Core group. The other five entered the Foundation Establishment group. Lonemoon's goal was to enter the top ten in the Foundation Establishment group. After all, among the five people in the Foundation Establishment group, there were two who had perfected Foundation Establishment.
Among the four people in the Golden Core group, other than Yu Hong who was in the mid-stage Golden Core, the other three were in the early-stage Golden Core. Si Yu had just formed her core. It was still difficult to stand out from a group of late-stage Golden Core cultivators, or even perfected Golden Core cultivators.
Although they were body cultivators who were stronger than sword cultivators, they had only learned sword techniques in the past year. They had not fought with anyone before, so they lacked experience. In fact, they probably wouldn't even bother to use those feminine spells from before.
