Strictly speaking, the valley where the Battle Slave Camp was located wasn't very large. It was only a few hundred acres in size. There were nearly a thousand caves of various sizes in this valley. Apart from the 25 caves that were exclusively used by the Heaven Reaching Towers of the Secondary Martial World, the rest were the residences of the Battle Slaves selected from the Heaven Reaching Towers.
The Martial Slaves selected from the various Secondary Martial Realms could live in the cave mansions of the various Secondary Martial Realms for the first five days. After five days, they would have to build their own cave mansions in the valley. After living in the valley for about three months, they would be arranged by the sect to fight on the Duel Arena. As long as they won 100 battles, they could enter the sect and become an outer sect disciple.
Among the people selected, age didn't matter. No matter how old you were, you would still be selected. However, all of the people selected were at the Severed Soul Stage. Cultivators below the Severed Soul Stage weren't qualified to be selected.
Because of this, the 25 caves of the Lesser Martial Realm were the safest places in the War Slave Camp. Because there were always Immortal Stage experts there, and there were more than one of them, the selected battle slaves naturally didn't dare to provoke these Immortal Stage experts.
Zhao Hai stayed in the 23rd cave for five days. During these five days, he didn't go out. He was learning about the Black Tiger Gang and the Cultivation Realm from Luo Ying.
The more he understood Zhao Hai, the more he felt that the Cultivation Realm wasn't simple. The Cultivation Realm wasn't like the Cultivation Realm. It was a universe composed of planets. Besides the Ten-thousand Realm Battlefield, every realm controlled a lot of planets.
The Cultivation Realm was made up of an incomparably huge continent. As for how big this continent was, no one in the Cultivation Realm had actually measured it. In short, it was very, very big. Even with Zhao Hai's current speed, if he kept flying in one direction, he might not be able to reach the edge of the Cultivation Realm even if he flew for ten years.
When he calculated this result, Zhao Hai couldn't help but wonder if he made a mistake. How could there be such a big continent? This didn't make sense.
In the Cultivation Realm, no one knew how many people there were in a sect. However, the Cultivation Realm was divided into nine continents. They were the Central Continent, the Eastern Sage Continent, the Eastern Buddha Continent, the Western Ghost Continent, the Western Sage Continent, the Southern Barbarian Continent, the Southern Sage Continent, the Northern Strange Continent, and the Northern Sage Continent.
In the Nine Provinces, the provinces with the word "Saint" in their names were usually dominated by cultivators from the orthodox Profound Sect. In other words, there were five provinces that focused on Profound Sect cultivation methods, and the Middle Saint Province was the strongest among them.
Zhao Hai's current location was the Northern Strange Continent. It was a relatively remote place in the Nine Continents. There were all kinds of Cultivators and Sects that practiced Cultivation Techniques. The Black Tiger Gang's strength in the Northern Strange Continent was enough to rank in the top 100. It could be considered a relatively large sect.
One shouldn't think that just because the Black Tiger Gang was ranked in the top 100, they weren't strong. On the contrary, the Northern Strange Continent was very large. There were at least eight thousand Sects here. To be able to squeeze into the top 100 among so many Sects, the Black Tiger Gang was definitely not weak. In the Northern Strange Continent, the Black Tiger Gang could be considered a large Sect.
The Black Tiger Gang's first leader was a Black Tiger Demon. The Black Tiger Gang was also a Demon Cultivator Sect. Later on, they absorbed a lot of Human Cultivators and slowly formed the current Black Tiger Gang. Although there were still a lot of Demon Cultivators in the gang, there were also a lot of Human Cultivators.
The Black Tiger Gang was divided into thirty-six halls. These thirty-six halls were divided into Upper Six Halls, Lower Six Halls, Inner Twelve Halls, and Outer Twelve Halls.
The Upper Six Halls and Lower Six Halls were the core halls of the Sect. Aside from the Core Disciples, there were also Elders who were responsible for managing the entire Sect. The other twenty-four halls were managed by these Upper Six Halls. The Upper Six Halls were in charge of the Inner Twelve Halls and the Lower Six Halls were in charge of the Outer Twelve Halls.
As for the Twelve Inner Halls, they were responsible for the normal affairs of the sect. They were responsible for managing the inner disciples and the outer disciples. The normal operation of the sect depended on these halls. They were responsible for the distribution of tasks, pills, weapons, faith power, janitor disciples, and so on.
The Twelve Outer Halls were also known as the Twelve Battle Halls. Once one heard this, one would know that these Twelve Outer Halls were responsible for the sect's external battles. Almost all of these Twelve Outer Halls were powerful warriors. Most of the inner and outer disciples of the sect were managed by these Twelve Outer Halls.
The Battle Slave Camp that Zhao Hai was in was managed by the Inner Twelve Halls. Only when he officially became an Outer Disciple would he be reassigned to a Hall. Right now, he was just like a janitor disciple. He didn't get the normal treatment of the Sect.
The Upper Six Halls were divided into the Medicine Hall, Tool Hall, Miscellaneous Hall, Law Hall, Holy Hall, and Abstinence Hall. The Medicine Hall was in charge of the Black Tiger Gang's medicinal plants and refining pills. The Tool Hall was in charge of the collection of ores and the refining of artifacts. The Miscellaneous Hall was in charge of janitor disciples and the distribution of gang tasks. The Law Hall was in charge of the distribution of cultivation methods and teaching. The Holy Hall was in charge of the distribution of spiritual veins and the distribution of faith power. The Abstinence Hall was in charge of the Black Tiger Gang's discipline. It was equivalent to the Law Enforcement Hall of other Sects.
The Lower Six Halls were the Wind Hall, Forest Hall, Fire Hall, Mountain Hall, Dark Hall, and Wei Hall. These Lower Six Halls were in charge of external affairs and internal defense. The Wind Hall, Forest Hall, Fire Hall, and Mountain Hall were in charge of external affairs. Most of the Inner and Outer Disciples were in charge of these Four Halls. The Dark Hall was in charge of external intelligence spying. The disciples of the Dark Hall were the most mysterious. No one knew the identity of the disciples of the Dark Hall. The Wei Hall was in charge of the gang's defense. The number of disciples was not fixed. Sometimes, these disciples in charge of defense would become the disciples of the Wind Hall, Forest Hall, Fire Hall, and Mountain Hall, and launch external attacks.
The Inner Twelve Halls were the Alchemy Hall, Botany Hall, Mine Exploration Hall, Tool Refining Hall, Janitor Hall, Mission Hall, Scripture Hall, Spiritual Vein Hall, Sacred Power Hall, Discipline Hall, and Law Enforcement Hall.
The Outer Twelve Halls were further divided into the Dark Hall, Wei Chou Hall, Yin Feng Hall, Dark Mao Hall, Celestial Wind Hall, Si Lin Hall, Wei Wu Hall, Wei Shan Hall, Shen Lin Hall, Yu Shan Hall, Xu Huo Hall, and Hai Huo Hall.
Every Black Tiger Gang disciple was given an identity token. This token wasn't just a proof of identity, it also indicated which hall you belonged to. At the same time, this token was also a record of your achievements. What missions you completed and how many contribution points you received would be recorded on this token.
The way the Black Tiger Gang distributed contribution points was similar to the way the Hundred Treasures Realm distributed contribution points. However, they didn't use computers. Everything was managed by the disciples of the Mission Hall. You go to the Mission Hall to receive a mission and submit it to the Mission Hall. Then the disciples of the Mission Hall would inspect the mission and distribute contribution points to you. You can use these contribution points to exchange for pills, cultivation methods, and other Cultivation items.
However, this was all that Zhao Hai knew. If he wanted to know more about the Black Tiger Gang, he would have to wait until he became an Outer Disciple.
Zhao Hai wasn't disappointed. These things were already very useful to him. As for other things, he could slowly understand them after he joins the Black Tiger Gang.
Luo Ying wasn't disgusted by Zhao Hai's approach. On the contrary, he was very happy. He knew about Zhao Hai's strength. Even the Inner Disciples sent to guard the pagoda couldn't defeat Zhao Hai. This showed how formidable Zhao Hai was. With Zhao Hai's strength, 100 victories in the death-deciding stage shouldn't be an impossible task. It was very likely that Zhao Hai would enter the Black Tiger Gang in the future.
Five days later, Zhao Hai had to leave the 23rd Lower Martial Realm's cave residence and live in an outside cave residence. There were a lot of empty caves in the valley. These caves were left behind by the battle slaves who used to live here. These people must've died in battle, been crippled, or joined the Black Tiger Gang. In short, they wouldn't be coming back. Zhao Hai could choose an empty cave residence to live in. The defensive formation in front of an empty cave wouldn't activate. Only when someone moves in would the defensive formation be activated.
Naturally, Zhao Hai also received a jade token that represented his identity. This jade token had a large 'slave' character on the front. On the back was Zhao Hai's name and the Lower Martial Realm he came from.
When Zhao Hai saw the 'slave' character on the jade token, his expression turned ugly. He didn't think that he would be used as a slave. But now, he knew that he couldn't resist. Just like Luo Ying said, if he resists now, it wouldn't be good for the Hundred Treasures Realm.
Zhao Hai casually found an empty cave residence and entered it. After activating the defensive formation, he entered the Space. After entering the villa, Zhao Hai immediately turned to Cai 'er and said, "Cai' er, how is it?"
Cai 'er turned to Zhao Hai and said, "I've understood the situation in the valley and its surroundings. There are now 183 battle slaves in the valley. 23 of them will leave the valley in a few days. There are also 18 battle slaves that entered the valley with Brother Hai. They are now living in their own residences. All of them are at the Severed Soul Stage. I haven't found any that can use Faith Power."
Zhao Hai nodded, this was also normal. Faith Power wasn't like cabbages in the Cultivation World. Everyone could use it. In the Cultivation World, one in a hundred thousand people would have Faith Power. But in the Cultivation World, being an Inner Court Disciple and receiving Faith Power was something that couldn't be compared to the Cultivation World.
Cai 'er continued, "Outside the valley is a forest. This forest covers an area of several hundred thousand square kilometers. There are a lot of formidable beasts inside. Some of these beasts have already reached the Immortal Stage. They can even transform into human form, they can be considered Beast Cultivators.
Zhao Hai stared, then he knit his brows and said, "If they can transform into human form and become Beast Cultivators, then why don't they join a sect instead of living in the wilderness?"
Cai 'er shook her head and said, "I don't know about that. But aside from your camp, there aren't any other camps in the vicinity. Outside of this forest is an endless desert. This forest is like an oasis in the middle of a huge desert, but it's just that this oasis is a bit bigger."
Zhao Hai let out a long breath, then he nodded and said, "So it's like that. It seems like the Black Tiger Gang chose this place because they were afraid that the slaves would run away. But this is also good, I don't want to run away. I want to see what kind of powerful Cultivators are like." Zhao Hai nodded and said, "You're right.
Cai 'er looked at Zhao Hai and said, "Big Brother Hai, it's impossible for you to stay in your cave all the time in the Battle Slave Camp. You must go out, cause trouble, or be provoked. In short, you must fight. When I was monitoring the Battle Slave Camp, I heard that if you don't fight more than five rounds, then you won't be selected to fight. You might stay in the Battle Slave Camp forever. If you stay in the camp for more than a year, then the Black Tiger Gang would send people to kill you." Zhao Hai nodded and said, "Then I'll leave the Battle Slave Camp.
Zhao Hai stared and said, "There's such a thing? Why didn't I hear about it from Luo Ying? "
Cai 'er replied, "This is what I heard from two Immortal Experts of the Black Tiger Gang. This rule is a secret. They want to see if the slaves have the will to fight. If they don't, then the Black Tiger Gang won't let you stay."
Zhao Hai nodded, then he smiled faintly and said, "Interesting, very interesting. I can actually kill people here. Hehe. Unfortunately, I don't want to cause trouble. Otherwise, I would've killed the 25 Immortal Experts of the Lower Martial Realm and see how the Black Tiger Gang would react."
Cai 'er smiled and didn't say anything. Then Laura said, "Brother Hai, I think you should find an opportunity to fight a few rounds. Then you can participate in the Death Arena and join the Black Tiger Gang as soon as possible. From the information we got from Luo Ying, we can tell that the Northern Continent is much bigger than the Ten-thousand Realm Battlefield. Moreover, there are countless Cultivators here. If Brother Hai wants to improve his strength, then this is a good place to do so." Zhao Hai nodded and said, "Brother Hai, this is a good place.
Zhao Hai nodded and said, "Right. Let's not talk about other things. The spiritual qi in the Battle Slave Camp is much stronger than in the Ten-thousand Realm Battlefield. It seems like there are a lot of experts in the Cultivation Realm. It would be a great pleasure to meet them."
Lizzy smiled faintly and said, "Alright, then you should meet them. Right, Big Brother Hai, why do you think the Cultivation Realm doesn't choose Immortal Experts from the Lower Martial Realm? Aren't Immortal Experts stronger than the Cultivation Realm? "
Zhao Hai shook his head and said, "I don't know about this. It's strange. There might be some reasons that we don't know. We can slowly look for the reason later. Right, let's rest inside the Space for a few days. Then we'll go out and look for things."
Lizzy and the others laughed. Zhao Hai turned his head to Cai 'er and said, "Cai' er, didn't you say that there's a forest outside the camp? Alright, let's see if there are any good things in the forest. If there's anything good, don't forget to take it to the Space. "
Cai 'er smiled and said, "Don't worry, Big Brother Hai, I'll take care of it. You should take a good rest. Use these few days to collect information about the Battle Slaves. It'll make it easier for you to deal with them."
Zhao Hai nodded and said, "Alright, I'll leave it to you. If someone comes here, don't forget to release silver needles on them. I want to know what kind of place the Cultivation Realm is."
