The disciples served as tools, frantically competing in tournaments while Jun Changxiao sat in the sect collecting Reputation Points. His days were comfortable and easy.
The outside world began to boil over.
If it were just winning one martial tournament championship, that wouldn’t be particularly strange.
However, over the course of half a month, disciples of the Eternal Sect consecutively won first place in competitions held in various major cities. As the news gradually spread, it naturally caused a huge sensation.
“My heavens, the championship of the Golden Seal City Tournament was also taken by the Eternal Sect!”
“This is already the tenth one!”
“I heard the entire competition process was completely one-sided. Many participants couldn’t even withstand a second move before being defeated!”
What shocked the world most was that the disciples who won championships weren’t just one person, but a whole group!
This meant that the Eternal Sect was casting a wide net to participate in various competitions, and whenever they participated, they were guaranteed to win the championship, leaving no chance for other sects!
“Too terrifying!”
“Could it be that every Eternal Sect disciple has exceptional strength?”
“Apparently, all the participants were at Core Rotation Realm!”
It was normal for a sect to have talented disciples participate in martial tournaments and win first place, but having so many disciples win championships in various competitions was simply world-shaking!
Combined with the Eternal Sect’s previous troubles with the御剑玄宗 (Imperial Sword Profound Sect) and 凌刀玄宗 (Soaring Blade Profound Sect), many martial artists began to seriously consider the question: just how strong was the Eternal Sect’s comprehensive strength now?
“Profound-tier, without a doubt!”
“I think it’s more than that. If other Profound Sects participated in that many competitions, they might not win all the championships!”
As Liu Sinan continued leading disciples to participate in and win competitions, the issue of the Eternal Sect’s strength became the most discussed topic in the Upper Realm.
Profound-tier.
This was currently the most widely accepted assessment.
As for True-tier, one couldn’t reach it just by disciples winning championships—they also needed to demonstrate the prowess of high-level combat power.
“Sect Master.”
Li Luoqiu came to report: “The outside world is all discussing our sect, believing we possess Profound-tier strength.”
Jun Changxiao wasn’t surprised at all.
Sending Lu Qianqian, Su Xiaomo, and the others to participate in various competitions was precisely to let the world know that for the Eternal Sect, winning championships was as easy as reaching into a pocket to retrieve something. If they couldn’t realize what this meant, they should quickly go get their brains examined!
“Next.”
Jun Changxiao opened the data panel, looking at the recently increased Achievement Points, thinking to himself: “I’m just waiting for the system’s recognition.”
Recognition in the Upper Realm relied on strength.
System recognition relied on wealth.
As long as there were enough Achievement Points, any problem could be easily resolved.
…
Jun Changxiao didn’t recall the disciples, continuing to let them compete outside, using absolute strength to make the world recognize that the Eternal Sect had already reached Profound-tier.
A month later, Lu Qianqian, Su Xiaomo, and the others had won no less than thirty championships, truly fighting from east to west, from south to north, invincible wherever they went.
As for Reputation Points, they had increased from the initial 2,000 points to 5,000 points.
The Contribution Point system had nearly collapsed.
The Reputation Point system had just begun to emerge.
With continuous refreshing, items gradually appearing in the shop could only be purchased with Reputation Points, not the previous mixed currency system.
The replacement trend was irreversible.
One day, Contribution Points would tearfully say: “Brother, I must exit the stage.”
Reputation Points would solemnly respond: “Big brother, I will inherit your spirit and provide more cheat sources for Dog Leftover. Rest in peace.”
The Yangtze River’s later waves push the earlier waves, and the earlier waves die on the beach.
…
Half a year.
Not too long.
It passed without notice.
Lu Qianqian, Su Xiaomo, and the others had long since returned. They had won a total of fifty championships, completely spreading the sect’s prestige throughout the entire Upper Realm.
Ask any random martial artist what tier the Eternal Sect was at, and the answer would definitely be Profound-tier.
“Step!”
Outside the Life-Death Secret Realm, Ye Xingchen emerged, his forehead covered in sweat.
Over the past half year, he hadn’t gone to compete in tournaments, instead dedicating himself wholeheartedly to martial cultivation, advancing his realm from Four Revolutions to Five Revolutions.
Because of the ten-year agreement, all sect resources were being used on Ah Niu, which allowed him to advance one revolution in just over half a year.
Dragon Head Peak.
The completely new great hall had been constructed.
As the sect’s face, it certainly couldn’t be frequently renovated.
Li Qingyang had designed it to be extremely grand and magnificent this time, ensuring it wouldn’t become outdated for a very long time.
Previously, although the Eternal Sect gave people a feeling of splendor and magnificence, it was ultimately a bit too worldly. Now, after major modifications to the main peak, along with the embellishment of various precious plants, it was not only full of vitality but also full of celestial energy.
“Not bad.”
Jun Changxiao was very satisfied.
“Clank!”
“Clank!”
On the martial arts field, several Dark Destroyer Gods were methodically clearing construction debris under Dunan’s command.
Under Taixuan Elder’s continuous research, the number of mechas had increased to three thousand units. Furthermore, because they were all equipped with soul formations, they could operate unmanned.
Dark Destroyer Gods were originally meant for battle, but considering that energy consumption was under control, Jun Changxiao had some of them handle sect internal affairs, truly achieving a transition from military to civilian use.
During this period, quite a few One Revolution Rapid Pills had also been produced. Although the process of consuming them was painful, many disciples broke through to Core Rotation Realm because of them.
According to the latest statistics, the number of One Revolution cultivators had exceeded two thousand.
In less than two hundred days, the Eternal Sect’s overall strength had advanced by leaps and bounds, with a growth rate that left people speechless.
Unfortunately.
Every aspect had improved, but Jun Changxiao alone was stuck at Peak Core Rotation Realm, never triggering the Epic Quest to break through to Truth-Seeking Realm.
“Ding! Disciple Mao Xiaodao has cleaned the latrines one hundred times, completing sect tasks and obtaining 10 Contribution Points and 10 Achievement Points.”
“Ding! Sect Contribution Points: 6,703,200.”
“Ding! Sect Achievement Points: 10,000,000.”
As the notification sounded in his ears again, a smile appeared on Dog Leftover’s face.
Achievement Points.
They’d finally broken ten million!
“Swish!”
Opening the system data panel, he unhesitatingly clicked on sect level, and an option popped up asking whether to spend ten million Achievement Points for promotion.
[Yes]
“Ding! Expending ten million Achievement Points for level promotion.”
“Ding! Sect Achievement Points: 0.”
“Ding! Now detecting whether standards are met…”
“…”
Jun Changxiao nearly cursed.
I’ve already spent the damn money, what’s there to detect!
“Ding! The sect has gained recognition from Upper Realm forces, meeting promotion standards. Eternal Strongest Sect has been promoted to Profound Sect.”
“As expected!”
Jun Changxiao said: “Spending money doesn’t necessarily guarantee promotion—you also need to gain recognition!”
The system said: “But didn’t you still succeed?”
“Bullshit!”
Jun Changxiao roared: “If I hadn’t sent disciples out to compete in tournaments and carelessly upgraded without meeting the standards, the Achievement Points would definitely have been wasted!”
“…”
The system fell silent.
Although it didn’t want to admit it, this was probably true.
“Ding! Sect promoted to Profound Sect, obtaining 10,000 Reputation Points, obtaining Supreme Commodity Purchase Rights ×1, obtaining Nine Heavens Divine Stone ×1, obtaining Earth Corner Dragon Heart ×1.”
“Swish!”
Jun Changxiao jumped up from his chair, his expression gradually transforming from dazed to wildly delighted.
He had thought that promoting the sect to Profound-tier would bring rewards, but he hadn’t expected them to be so generous!
Ten thousand Reputation Points!
Supreme Commodity!
Even receiving just one of these would be incredibly profitable!
“Feeling good?”
“Great!”
The smile on Jun Changxiao’s face bloomed like a chrysanthemum, then he opened the purchased items column and clicked on the Supreme Commodity, but instantly froze because the price tag read—12,000 Reputation Points.
Damn it!
The rewarded Reputation Points weren’t enough to buy it—he still had to pay an additional 2,000 points out of his own pocket!
