(Fourth Update Seeking Monthly Votes!) (19)
On this day, the Falling Star Sect was cleaned from top to bottom.
The entire Falling Star Sect looked brand new.
There were twice as many people at the sentry posts as compared to usual.
As for the Inner Sect Square, it was even more extraordinary. Around the centermost ring, three tall pavilions were temporarily set up.
On the pavilions near the Falling Star Hall, many higher-ups of the Falling Star Sect were gathered. Sect Master Lu Tianyuan was the leader, and beside him were Perfected Masters of the Astral Realm.
Behind the Perfected Masters were the elders of the sect. They were either half-step Perfected Masters or Marquis Peak Martial Saints.
On the left and right of the Perfected Masters stood some core disciples. More than half of the core disciples were here.
Obviously, today was a special day!
Out of the three pavilions, one was occupied by the Falling Star Sect, and the other two were empty. No one knew who they were reserved for.
If the Sect Master of the Falling Star Sect, some of the Perfected Masters, and the elders of the sect were waiting for someone, then the person they were waiting for was definitely not an ordinary person!
"The Sect Master of the Spirit Moon Sect, Perfected Master Xingyue, is here to visit the Falling Star Sect!"
Lu Tianyuan and the rest did not wait for long before a huge bird flew over from the horizon. A loud voice came from afar.
The voice traveled more than ten miles, and the entire Falling Star Sect could hear it.
No wonder Sect Master Lu Tianyuan was waiting for them personally. It was the Sect Master of the Spirit Moon Sect, Leng Xingyue, who was leading the team.
Since the Sect Master was visiting, the Falling Star Sect naturally had to be received by the Sect Master.
As the bird came closer, the people of the Falling Star Sect realized that it was a huge Luan bird. When it spread its wings, it was more than twenty feet long. Its body was covered in shiny green fur. It was a level three demonic beast.
A level three demonic beast was equivalent to a Perfected Master of the Astral Realm.
There were more than ten people standing on the back of the Luan bird. The three people in front had deep auras. They were all Perfected Masters of the Astral Realm.
The ten people behind them did not look old. They were all in their early twenties. They should be the younger disciples of the Spirit Moon Sect.
Their cultivations were not low. Most of them were Five or Six Star Martial Saints. However, two of them were much stronger than the rest. They were like cranes among chickens. Seven Star Vortex Martial Saints.
A Seven Star Martial Sage could be conferred the title of Marquis. For a disciple of the younger generation to reach such a cultivation realm, his talent was indeed outstanding.
Among the disciples of the Falling Star Sect, there was only one who had reached the Seven Star Martial Saint Realm. That was the First Disciple, Ma Ren.
However, Ma Ren had only broken through to become a Seven Star Martial Saint after coming out of the Falling Star Secret Land. Even with the Spiritual Pills provided by the sect to help him consolidate his cultivation, he was only at the middle stage of the Seventh Star Martial Saint Realm.
Among the disciples of the Spirit Moon Sect, there were two Seven Star Martial Saints. Among the disciples of the Falling Star Sect, there was one Seven Star Martial Saint. From this, it could be seen that the younger generation of the Falling Star Sect was indeed inferior to the Spirit Moon Sect.
However, this generation of Spirit Moon Sect disciples was the most ordinary generation in the last hundred years.
Even so, the disciples of the Falling Star Sect were still inferior to them. Some people said that the Falling Star Sect had declined in recent years and had no successors. This was true.
Lu Tianyuan stood up and went out to greet them. Everyone from the Falling Star Sect also stood up. Elder Hua Tianshu of the Tool Pavilion and Elder Yu Pinghai of the Enforcement Hall followed behind Lu Tianyuan to greet the guests from the Spirit Moon Sect.
"Friends from the Spirit Moon Sect have come from afar. It must have been hard on you!"
Lu Tianyuan cupped his fists towards the Spirit Moon Sect Leader in the air. Then, he pointed to a pavilion and said, "Friends from the Flying Cloud Sect have not arrived yet. Sage Xing Yue, please take our friends from the Spirit Moon Sect to rest for a while!"
The Level 3 Demonic Beast Luan Bird landed on the pavilion that Lu Tianyuan pointed at. Everyone jumped down from the bird's back.
"Look, look! That Seven Star Martial Saint in white is Mo Xilan …!"
Among the core disciples of the Falling Star Sect, someone pointed at a female disciple in white from the Spirit Moon Sect and shouted excitedly.
Beside him, several core disciples looked excitedly towards the pavilion where the Spirit Moon Sect was located. Their eyes immediately lit up.
Eldest Senior Brother Ma Ren also looked over with a serious expression.
Mo Xilan, the eldest disciple of the Spirit Moon Sect, was 23 years old and was already a peak Seven Star Martial Saint.
Ma Ren was also 23 years old this year and was also a Seven Star Martial Saint. However, he had just become a Seven Star Martial Saint. Mo Xilan had become a Seven Star Martial Saint at the age of 22 and had been conferred the title of Marquis by the Spirit Moon Country. It had been more than a year since then. There was a big gap between the two of them.
Even the second disciple of the Spirit Moon Sect, Ceng Jingru, made Ma Ren feel a lot of pressure. Ceng Jingru had also broken through to the Seven Star Martial Saint this year. It was about the same time as Ma Ren. Her cultivation should also be at the middle stage of the Rank 7 Martial Saint realm.
This time, the Spirit Moon Sect Leader had brought the core disciples to participate in the gathering of the Falling Star Sect, the Spirit Moon Sect and the Flying Cloud Sect.
Every five years, the top ten sects of the Green Cloud Region would go to the depths of the Green Cloud Mountain Range and open up the Green Cloud Ancient Land once. They would allow their best disciples to enter the Green Cloud Ancient Land to gain experience and explore for treasures!
In the Green Cloud Ancient Land, there were many dangers. The greatest danger came from the disciples of the other sects.
Especially the four sects in the North of the Green Cloud Mountain Range. They were strong and far stronger than the six sects in the South of the Green Cloud Mountain Range. Their disciples were also weaker.
Therefore, the disciples of the six sects in the South had to unite and fight against their enemies. They had to fight against the disciples of the four sects in the Green Cloud Ancient Land.
However, the six sects in the South were all located in the South of the Green Cloud Mountain Range. Usually, there were conflicts and disputes that were difficult to cut off. For example, the Falling Star Sect and the Dongfu Sect had great enmity and they always wanted each other to be destroyed.
Therefore, it was impossible for the six sects in the South to unite. After many years of development, the six sects in the South had been divided into two camps. The Falling Star Sect, the Spirit Moon Sect and the Flying Cloud Sect had joined forces and belonged to one camp. The other three sects had joined forces and belonged to the other camp.
In fact, there were also conflicts and conflicts between the Falling Star Sect, the Spirit Moon Sect and the Flying Cloud Sect. However, because the conflicts between them were small and they had to fight against the other camp, they joined forces.
This kind of alliance was not stable and there were also internal conflicts.
For example, if the disciples of the three sects entered the Green Cloud Ancient Land, who should they listen to since they were in an alliance?
In order to solve this problem, every month before the Green Cloud Ancient Land opened, the three sects would bring their most elite core disciples and hold a gathering.
The purpose of the gathering was to select the person who could command all the disciples of the three sects in the Green Cloud Ancient Land.
In the Star Land, the strong were respected and the strong naturally would not listen to the weak.
Therefore, the selection process was simple. The strongest core disciple of the three sects would listen to his command in the Green Cloud Ancient Land.
In each sect, the ranking of the disciples was based on their strength. The strongest disciple would be the eldest disciple.
Therefore, as long as the eldest disciple of the three sects competed, they would be able to select the strongest one.
However, the Three Great Sects only gathered once every five years. If the Three Great Sects only had a competition between the Three Great Sects, it would be too monotonous and not satisfying enough. Therefore, after discussion, the Three Great Sects decided to have a competition between the Elite Core Disciples during the gathering to see which Sect's disciple performed the best.
Therefore, the competition for command in the Green Cloud Ancient Land evolved into a competition among the core disciples of the three sects. In other words, it was a competition for face.
Whichever sect won the core disciple competition of the three major sects and took the first place, that sect would be proud and proud, their faces filled with glory.
If any of the sects lost, they would naturally lose face. In the next five years, they would work hard and do their best to nurture their disciples. They would strive to be able to hold their heads up high in the next competition.
Five years ago, in the Three Sects Competition, Spirit Moon Sect was ranked first, Flying Cloud Sect was ranked second and Falling Star Sect was ranked third.
This year, it was Falling Star Sect's turn to host the Three Sects Competition. However, the disciples of Falling Star Sect were not as outstanding as the disciples of Spirit Moon Sect five years ago.
The eldest disciple of Spirit Moon Sect, Mo Xilan, was a Peak Seven Star Martial Sage. She was very powerful and was famous in the entire Green Cloud Region. Ma Ren's chances of winning against her were less than 10%.
Therefore, as the host this time, Falling Star Sect did not want to be ranked first. Instead, they wanted to be ranked second and not be ranked last again.
Last time at the Spirit Moon Sect, he had already lost face by coming in last place. This time, it was hosted by the Falling Star Sect, and as the host, if he were to come in last place again, it would really be a huge loss of face.
Whether they could be ranked second or not depended on the current core disciples of Flying Cloud Sect.
