Yang Yong also knew about the conflict between the Jin and Wang Family. He immediately advised, "Dao Yuan, you have already passed the test. There is no need to compete anymore."
Even if he didn't give face to the monk, he still had to give face to the Buddha. Since Yang Yong had personally spoken, he still had to give face to him.
Wang Daoyuan stopped casting spells, but the cultivator surnamed Jin was still unconvinced.
Yang Yong was afraid that he would look for trouble again, so he quickly said, "I used to think that Dao Yuan was only good with the whip. I didn't expect that he had also learned the spells of swordsmanship."
Wang Daoyuan knew what he was trying to do. He wanted to scare the guy surnamed Jin and prevent the two of them from continuing to fight.
Thus, he replied, "It's just a spar. There's no need to use my true abilities. I'll use some of my newly learned spells to ask Senior Martial Brother Jin for advice."
When the cultivator surnamed Jin heard this, he knew that Wang Daoyuan still had some tricks up his sleeves. Even if he used his family's secret technique, he might not necessarily win.
If he were to continue fighting, he would still be defeated even if he were to use his clan's secret art.
If that happened, not only would he lose face, but his entire family would also lose face.
He didn't want to fight anymore, so he swallowed a healing pill and sat down to recover.
The cultivator surnamed Jin could not fight for the time being, so the other two cultivators from the Netherworld Sect had to take the test first.
Next, Wang Daoxing attacked.
The person in charge of testing him was a cultivator from the Netherworld Sect.
Wang Daoxing's strength was too strong, so the two of them did not overdo it.
Not long after, all the early and late Foundation Establishment cultivators finished their tests. Everyone passed.
The Netherworld Sect only looked for cultivators from their clan to be scapegoats. The main force was still the cultivators of their own sect, so it was fine as long as the scapegoats weren't too weak.
The other middle stage Foundation Establishment cultivators were even more miserable. The cultivator surnamed Jin was beaten up by Wang Daoyuan and lost a lot of face.
He did not dare to find trouble with Wang Daoyuan, so he could only vent his anger on the other cultivators.
Using his family's secret arts one after another, he tortured the other middle stage Foundation Establishment cultivators to an extremely miserable state.
However, he had a sense of propriety and allowed all the cultivators to pass the test. It was just that they were all heavily injured.
After the participating cultivators finished their tests, everyone returned to their respective homes. Twenty days later, they officially set off.
Wang Daoyuan and Wang Daoxing didn't run around either. They cultivated in their family's shop.
Twenty days later, more than ten people arrived at the entrance of the Netherworld Sect's headquarters in Clear Glass Market.
Not long after everyone arrived, Yang Yong came in front of everyone and took out a half-foot long flying boat magic tool from his storage bag.
After injecting spiritual energy into it, the flying boat rapidly expanded, eventually reaching a length of more than thirty meters and a width of thirty to forty meters.
The cultivators participating in the battle boarded the flying ship and headed west.
About twenty thousand miles to the west of Qing Li City, one would reach the border between Guanshan Prefecture and Guangyuan Prefecture.
Guangyuan Prefecture was the smallest prefecture in the State of Zhao. It was only half the size of Qingli Prefecture.
However, apart from Trinity River County, it was the most important county in the Zhao Country.
Guangyuan prefecture's terrain was low-lying and the land was flat. There was plenty of water and spirit veins, and spirit fields were everywhere.
One-third of the spirit fields in the State of Zhao were in Guangyuan Prefecture.
Darkwater Commandery surrounded Guangyuan Commandery from the west and north.
Directly to the north was the territory of Guanshan Commandery. There were mountains and valleys, and very few flat lands could be seen. The terrain was dangerous, and it was the northern barrier between Guangyuan Commandery and Sanhe Commandery.
The location of the battle was at the western border of Darkwater Commandery, northwest of Guangyuan Commandery, and the northernmost tip of Trinity River County.
It was about forty thousand miles away from Qing Li City. Riding a grade three flying ship, the speed was very fast, and they arrived in a little more than a day.
The location of the battle was next to the spirit stone mine that the two sects were fighting over. Everyone arrived a few days in advance, so that they could get used to the venue.
The mountain where the spirit stone mine was located was called Pine Elm Mountain. It was a thousand miles to the west of Darkwater River, at the source of a small tributary.
The mountain stretched for more than two hundred miles, and the highest point was no more than three hundred meters.
The mountain was covered with spirit trees like pine and elm trees, hence the name.
Pine Elm Mountain only had a small grade one mid-grade spirit vein. Before the discovery of the spirit stone mine, there was no development value at all.
Therefore, the two sects did not take Pine Elm Mountain seriously, and used it as the boundary mountain between the two sects' territories.
Now that a sizable spirit stone mine had been discovered, neither side was willing to give in.
When Wang Daoyuan and the rest arrived, there were already many cultivators participating in the battle.
The battle was on a flat ground in the south of Pine Elm Mountain. This flat ground was four to five miles long and three miles wide.
The cultivators of Cruel Sun Palace were stationed on the west side of the battle ground, while the cultivators of Underworld Sect were stationed on the east side.
After the cultivators of both sides arrived, they first observed the venue.
The Underworld Sect had a rule that cultivators of the affiliated families had to wear the clothes of their own family. Wearing clothes without permission would be severely punished.
Wang Daoyuan felt that this rule of the Underworld Sect was specifically used to trick the Wang family, deliberately letting them attract the hatred of Cruel Sun Palace.
Such a bad idea was definitely from the external branch of the Underworld Sect, and it was very likely that Liang Liang personally came up with it.
As expected, the moment Wang Daoyuan and Wang Daoxing appeared, the cultivators of Cruel Sun Palace turned red.
It could not be helped, the Wang family's clothes had a bounty over at Cruel Sun Palace all year round, so the people of Cruel Sun Palace all knew the Wang family's clothes.
A few cultivators of Cruel Sun Palace cursed at the Wang family, constantly provoking them, asking them to fight one on one.
Wang Daoyuan naturally did not care about this little trick. What surprised him was that his second brother Wang Daoxing did not react.
According to Wang Daoxing's temper, he should have rushed up at this time.
Wang Daoyuan was ready to hold him down, but he did not move at all.
Wang Daoyuan asked, "Second brother, what happened to you?
According to your temper in the past, you should have rushed up directly. "
Wang Daoxing laughed, "I'm almost seventy years old, how can I not know anything?
If I rushed up directly, I would definitely die and implicate the family.
There's no use in arguing with this group of people. I've already remembered those who scolded the most fiercely. I won't let any of the early Foundation Establishment cultivators go, and you can't let the two middle Foundation Establishment cultivators go either. "
Wang Daoyuan patted his shoulder and said, "Second brother, with your words, you can take charge in the future."
Wang Daoxing just smiled and did not say anything.
The day of the duel arrived quickly. All the duels were arranged on this field and were not carefully divided.
The order of the duels started from early Foundation Establishment.
The rules of the duel were also very simple. All methods could be used, but they could not exceed the realm.
In other words, poisons, hidden weapons, spirit talismans, beast taming, corpse refining and all sorts of other methods could be used, but they must not exceed the user's cultivation realm.
The grade of the external objects used by early Foundation Establishment cultivators could not exceed the early second grade.
The winner and loser were also very simple. One side died, went out of bounds and admitted defeat, and the duel would determine the winner.
The winner could apply for an hour of rest before starting the next duel.
Although this was a little slow, cultivators lived long lives and did not care about this time.
The duel soon began. The early Foundation Establishment cultivators of both sides came to the edge of the duel field, ready to fight.
Of the forty people on the Netherworld Sect's side, only five were from the main sect. The rest were from the subsidiary families.
Half of the Cruel Sun Palace's side were from the main sect, while the Netherworld Sect's cultivators were from the main sect.
In terms of responsibility, the Netherworld Sect was truly lacking.
A third level Foundation Establishment cultivator of the Cruel Sun Palace ran to the center of the field and shouted towards the Netherworld Sect's side, "Cowards of the Jade Spring Wang Clan, get over here and die!"
Wang Daoxing was just about to step forward when Wang Daoyuan took out more than a hundred low-grade second grade spirit talismans, saying, "If you can win, then fight. If you can't, then use the spirit talismans to smash him to death.
I have plenty of spirit talismans here. Use as much as you want, no need to save them. "
Wang Daoxing accepted the spirit talismans and put them into his storage bag. He took out a door-sized greatsword and walked into the duel field.
A Zifu Disciple of the Myriad Spirit Sect flew into the air above the duel field and announced the start of the duel.
For the sake of fairness, the Myriad Spirit Sect's cultivators were the referees. The referees were supervised by the cultivators of the Netherworld Sect and the Cruel Sun Palace.
Wang Daoxing's opponent also walked the path of body refinement. He was also a metal-type cultivator and wielded a large saber.
The two's battle was simple and unadorned. After each used a defensive spell, they swung their weapons at each other.
