Three thousand Spiritual Stones were enough to support a Middle-stage Spirit Path Martial Artist to cultivate at a speed several times faster than usual for nearly a year, or to buy a Heaven-level Spirit Item of Heaven and Earth, a Supreme-grade Magic Weapon, or even an opportunity for a Supreme Venerable to make a move.
As for the value of an Inferior Grade Magic Weapon, it went without saying.
An Inferior Grade Magic Weapon was far more precious than a Supreme-grade Magic Weapon. Even an Earth Venerable would not be able to obtain one if it was refined with a Supreme Spiritual Object.
However, Lin Buzheng now had the opportunity to enter the Chongsheng Sect's treasure vault and choose an Inferior Grade Magic Weapon that suited him. This opportunity was ten times more valuable than any other Inferior Grade Magic Weapon!
Finally, entering the Small World of the Sacred Lake to cultivate was also an incredible opportunity.
The Small World of the Sacred Lake was one of the thirty-four Small Worlds of the Chongsheng Sect. Legend had it that it was the residence of the Ancient Emperor.
The lake in the Small World had become sacred because it had been contaminated with the Ancient Emperor's aura. It contained countless fragments of the Great Path of Heaven and Earth. Even an Earth Venerable would benefit greatly from soaking and cultivating in the Sacred Lake, let alone a Spirit Path Martial Artist. Such an opportunity could not be bought with a hundred thousand Spiritual Stones!
Lin Buzheng ranked first in the Trial of a Hundred Battles. The benefits he received were more amazing than the last. Even some of the leaders and Elders of the Chongsheng Sect were shocked when they heard this.
"Senior, the rewards for this Trial of a Hundred Battles seem to be a little too much."
Lin Buzheng frowned and asked tentatively. Before he participated in the Trial of a Hundred Battles, he clearly remembered that the reward for the first place was a thousand Spiritual Stones and a Supreme-grade Magic Weapon.
However, now that he ranked first, the reward was more than ten times more. This surprised Lin Buzheng. He hesitated for a while and did not accept it easily.
"Young Friend Lin, don't hesitate. Just accept it. These rewards are what you deserve!"
The Grand Elder of the Chongsheng Sect stroked his beard and said to Lin Buzheng with a smile, "According to the rules of the Hundred Battles Trial, the prize for the champion is only 1,000 Spirit Stones and a supreme-grade magic item."
"However, Young Friend Lin's performance in the Trial of a Hundred Battles was outstanding. Despite the huge disparity in strength, you were able to defeat all of the other disciples who participated in the Trial of a Hundred Battles. Thus, this old man decided to deprive the other participants of their rewards and give them all to Young Friend Lin alone …"
"Great Elder, how can you do this?!"
One of the 11 Sky-Prides exclaimed in shock. His expression changed drastically.
Although the remaining geniuses did not say anything, their expressions were unpleasant too.
During the Trial of a Hundred Battles, the twelve of them joined forces to set up the Twelve Sacred Imperial Formation and fought against Lin Buzheng. However, they were defeated in front of everyone. Their bodies were injured and they lost face. But now, even their rewards were going to be taken away. This was something they could not accept.
As for Heavenly King Wu and Yue He, they stood silently to the side with indifferent expressions, as if they were already aware of all of this.
"Why not?"
"The twelve of you joined forces in the Trial of a Hundred Battles and still failed to defeat Young Friend Lin. Heavenly King Wu and Yue He also lost miserably. The difference in strength between you and Young Friend Lin, who is ranked first, is huge. In two battles, you have completely humiliated the Chongsheng Sect. Yet, you still want rewards?"
The Great Elder of the Chongsheng Sect sneered. With just a few words, the 11 Sky-Prides were flushed with embarrassment. They could not even raise their heads.
"Even so, the rewards of the Trial shouldn't be so generous!"
Lin Buzheng calculated silently in his heart and said calmly.
"Young Friend Lin, don't be hasty. I'm not done yet."
"Before the Trial of a Hundred Battles, Heavenly King Wu said that he would double the rewards for the top ten disciples. Since he has said so, I will naturally fulfill his wish!" The Great Elder of the Chongsheng Sect said with a smile.
"Great Elder, you are …"
Lin Buzheng suddenly understood and looked at the Great Elder of the Chongsheng Sect with a probing gaze.
The Great Elder stroked his beard and looked at Lin Buzheng with approval. "I am the head of the Wu Family. Heavenly King Wu is my disappointing eldest grandson."
"Then I thank Elder Wu for your kindness!" Lin Buzheng finally accepted the Trial of a Hundred Battles.
Clearly, the reason why Elder Wu was so partial to Lin Buzheng was to express goodwill on behalf of the Wu Family. At the same time, he hoped that Lin Buzheng and Heavenly King Wu could bury the hatchet.
Lin Buzheng and Heavenly King Wu did not have much of a grudge, and the conflict with Wu Tianhao was not even worth mentioning.
More importantly, as a disciple of the Chongsheng Sect, Wang Yurou would have to cultivate in the Chongsheng Sect for the rest of her life. It was indeed inappropriate for her to have a conflict with the Wu Family, which was second to none in the Sect.
Since the head of the Wu Family had personally come to resolve the grudge between the younger generation, giving Lin Buzheng face, he naturally had to agree.
At this moment, although Lin Buzheng had a faint smile on his face, his heart was filled with emotion.
Ever since Wang Yurou came to the Chongsheng Sect, she had been bullied and ostracized by the Wu Family.
Although she was strong, her state of mind was transcendent. She was unwilling to fight with others and kept giving in. In the end, even a nobody like Wu Tianhao had dared to bully her.
Lin Buzheng's personality was the complete opposite of Wang Yurou's. After coming to the Chongsheng Sect, he had been arrogant, domineering, and unscrupulous.
"If you punch me, I'll break your skull. If you hurt one of my people, I'll kill your entire family. If you glare at me, I'll hang you from a tree."
Relying on his superior strength, he ran amok in the Chongsheng Sect and beat up all the disciples of his generation in the Chongsheng Sect, causing the Chongsheng Sect to lose face and earning himself a fierce reputation.
Even so, not only did the higher-ups of the Chongsheng Sect not punish Lin Buzheng, they even compromised. Even the head of the Wu Family personally showed up to apologize for Lin Buzheng.
Think about it, if Lin Buzheng's strength was average, would he have received such treatment from the Chongsheng Sect and the Wu Family?
Absolutely not!
When he was bullied by Wu Tianhao and humiliated by the other disciples of the Chongsheng Sect, he could only endure it in silence.
The higher-ups of the Chongsheng Sect and the Wu Family would turn a blind eye to this. They would not intervene at all, even if Su Lie stood behind him.
This was the world of martial arts. The winner takes all, and the weak get nothing. Weakness was a sin. Justice only existed in strength!
Three thousand spiritual stones, one inferior-grade magical item, one chance to enter the small world of the holy lake to cultivate …
For a moment, all the disciples of the Chongsheng Sect looked at Lin Buzheng enviously. They wished they could take his place and receive the generous rewards of the Trial of a Hundred Battles.
Whoosh!
But the next moment, as Lin Buzheng turned around, the disciples of the Chongsheng Sect immediately lowered their heads in fear, not daring to meet his gaze.
Lin Buzheng's invincible aura had taken shape.
Only Wang Yurou, who was not far away, looked like an otherworldly fairy. Her clothes fluttered in the wind as she smiled at Lin Buzheng.
It was as if in her eyes, in the vast world of martial arts, only she and Lin Buzheng were left.
"Yurou, you're here!"
