The situation in Wanjian Pavilion
"These people have always been like this, you don't have to worry about them," Xia Qingcheng's voice sounded when Chu Xingyun was looking at the disciples.
He slowly turned his head and discovered that Xia Qingcheng was also staring at those juniors. However, her beautiful eyes emitted a hint of coldness, as if she loathed those people.
"Do you know them?" Chu Xingyun asked curiously.
"You can say that." Xia Qingcheng looked away and said coldly, "The head of the Chang Family is Chang Chixiao, and the head of the Qin Family is Qin Qiumo. These two are powerful and highly valued by the Pavilion Master of Wanjian Pavilion. Naturally, the status of the Chang and Qin Families is not low, and they can easily dominate a region."
"These disciples in front of you are only average in talent, but they rely on their family's high status to act in a domineering and ruthless manner. They do not respect anyone. Even the royal family of the Great Xia Dynasty has suffered losses at their hands."
"If not for Chang Chixiao and Qin Qiumo, these guys would have been cut into pieces and died without a complete corpse!"
The coldness on Xia Qingcheng's face shocked Chu Xingyun.
He didn't expect that Xia Qingcheng's hatred for these people would be so deep. It could be said that she wanted to kill them all.
At the same time, Chu Xingyun looked at the others and found that everyone's eyes were filled with coldness and even killing intent towards these disciples. It was obvious that these people's existence was detestable.
"The appearance of the Sword Cleansing Pool has caused the trial this time to become especially difficult, whereas the appearance of these people has caused the trial to become extremely dangerous. If it wasn't for one's strength, it would probably be difficult to survive once one is targeted by them." Xia Qingcheng sighed deeply and ignored the greedy gazes of the disciples. She stood up and left the pavilion.
Chu Xingyun also stood up and quickly followed her.
He glanced at Xia Qingcheng and asked in a soft voice, "Those disciples are so rampant that they are almost no different from bandits. Won't the Wanjian Pavilion take action to control them?"
Xia Qingcheng shook her head and replied, "Within the Wanjian Pavilion, the Pavilion Master is the most respected, and below him are the Sword Masters. Every Sword Master is in charge of the true disciples and many ordinary disciples. Although the total number is small, the hierarchy within the pavilion is extremely strict."
"As far as I know, the Wanjian Pavilion now has 24 sword masters. If we regard the Wanjian Pavilion as a dynasty, then the sword masters are the nobles. Unless the Pavilion Master takes action personally, it's too difficult to control the families of the nobles."
Sensing the helplessness in Xia Qingcheng's tone, Chu Xingyun felt rather sympathetic.
All Sword Masters had reached the Yin Yang Realm.
On the other hand, the strongest person in the Eighteen Dynasties was only at the Heaven Spirit Realm.
The difference between the two was too great.
If a Sword Master took action, no one could stop him. Not to mention, there were many disciples and families under the Sword Master's command. Once things got out of hand, the dynasty would be the one to suffer in the end.
"The Wanjian Pavilion's territory is vast. Every action can affect the operation of the dynasty and the kingdom. Therefore, there are countless schemes in the Wanjian Pavilion. Chang Chixiao and Qin Qiumo have been standing in the Wanjian Pavilion for so long. Naturally, they have many helpers. These factors also make the disciples of the two more arrogant and condescending."
"As long as it's not a matter of life and death, we will choose to endure in the face of these people. Moreover, today's plot was obviously set up by Chang Chixiao and Qin Qiumo. They want to snatch the top ten spots in the trial. If anyone dares to speak up against them, they will become enemies with the two Sword Masters. At that time, even if they can enter the Wanjian Pavilion, they will not have a good ending."
Xia Qingcheng walked along the long corridor. She didn't try to hide her voice and her words were heard by many. Expressions of helplessness appeared on the faces of those who heard her. Evidently, they weren't unfamiliar with this matter.
"You don't have to be so negative. As the saying goes, good will be rewarded with good, and evil will be punished with evil. They will definitely be punished." Chu Xingyun was walking side by side with Xia Qingcheng. His eyes were looking forward as he spoke without batting an eyelid.
Xia Qingcheng was taken aback. She stared at Chu Xingyun and smiled. "I hope so."
Behind the pavilion, there were many buildings and palaces. The auction house was set up there.
Looking from afar, the auction house was luxuriously built. The hall was spacious and could easily accommodate thousands of people. At this moment, many people had gathered outside the auction house. Many luxurious carriages were parked in the square.
One by one, people in luxurious robes walked out of their carriages and headed towards the auction house under the escort of their servants.
Although this auction was one of the segments of the Ancient Sword Conference, as long as one was rich and powerful, one could enter and participate.
Every time the Ancient Sword Conference was held, there would be an auction. The items auctioned in the auction came from various dynasties and kingdoms. Every item was a priceless treasure.
That was the reason why there were so many grand characters present at the auction.
"That person came with Princess Qingcheng. I think the two of them must have some unspeakable secret."
"Princess Qingcheng is powerful and talented. Any Sword Master would want to take her in as a disciple. This person is lucky to be favored by Princess Qingcheng."
"I heard that this person relied on his profound swordsmanship to easily defeat Fang Shi and Bai Muchen. However, his cultivation talent is ordinary. At best, he can only be ranked above average."
As soon as Xia Qingcheng walked out of the pavilion, she attracted the attention of countless people. At the same time, those people also saw Chu Xingyun. They lowered their voices and whispered to each other.
Xia Qingcheng frowned and secretly glanced at Chu Xingyun. Seeing that there was no change in his expression, she was relieved. She smiled and said, "The VIP room is on the second floor. It will be much quieter there."
"Okay." Chu Xingyun nodded and gave a simple reply.
Before the auction, Xia Qingcheng had booked a VIP room. As soon as they stepped into the auction house, two maids quickly walked over and led them to the second floor.
At this moment, people entered the auction house one after another, and the sound of discussion was endless.
Suddenly, a gentle white light appeared in the middle of the auction house. The white light slowly descended from mid-air. Like a bright moon, it illuminated the entire auction house and emitted an incomparably resplendent brilliance.
In the white light, an old man in a crescent-moon robe descended from mid-air. His hair and beard were white, and he had a benevolent countenance. There was a warm smile on his lips, and he gave off an incomparably comfortable feeling.
However, the aura emitted from this old man was extremely vigorous. His spiritual power was like water ripples that swept out in all directions, affecting the free movement of the entire world.
"The auction this time is actually hosted by Sword Master Chang Qing!"
