Alliance Leader Qin and the alliance leaders all had expressions ugly to the extreme.

From the very beginning, they had prepared to watch a joke, but the Sacred Spring Sect kept losing, completely failing to provide them with any opportunity to laugh!

This plot development was nothing like what they had imagined!

And those various faction forces who had previously mocked the Iron Bones Clanging Sect also had their old faces flushed red.

After all, if it were them, dispatching outer disciples to fight against Sacred Spring Sect outer disciples, winning 3 out of 30 matches would be considered good luck!

“Palace Master…”

Standing in the distance, Li’er’s lips twitched as she said, “The Iron Bones Clanging Sect has won the twentieth match.”

In her estimation, if the Sacred Spring Sect fought thirty or forty matches, they would definitely win thirty or forty matches. Instead, the result was a reverse jinx!

Xi Jingxuan smiled and said, “Sect Leader Jun’s disciples are so strong.”

“Old Ma.”

Wang Donglin’s lips twitched as he said, “These Iron Bones Clanging Sect disciples are too fierce, aren’t they? They didn’t lose a single match out of twenty?!”

Ma Yunteng was also finding it somewhat difficult to remain calm at this moment. After all, even if his own sect came to fight the Sacred Spring Sect, there would definitely be victories and defeats on both sides.

The challenge continued.

Lin Jianghang and other disciples who had joined the sect earlier entered battle one after another, easily claiming victory.

Over this past year, although their spirit root aptitude hadn’t changed, they had gone through various resources and body transformations, and each one now possessed the strength of a high-grade Wutu!

What did this demonstrate?

It demonstrated that the Iron Bones Clanging Sect’s top-tier strength might not be as numerous as higher-ranked sects, but the strength of their foundation-level disciples was already not inferior to theirs.

Once they all fully matured, they would become extremely terrifying!

Elder Zhou from the Certification Headquarters had realized precisely this point, which was why he gave the Iron Bones Clanging Sect a Triple-A evaluation.

The strength or weakness of a sect wasn’t decided by a few individuals—it depended on overall strength!

Sculpting Pills, the Sculpting Chamber, spiritual energy arrays, the Training Tower, various resources, various martial techniques—these were the foundation of the Iron Bones Clanging Sect’s powerful basic disciples!

As for the Sacred Spring Sect?

Although they held the honored position of a fifth-rate sect, their resources were limited and definitely wouldn’t be distributed to outer disciples.

Outer disciples who wanted to receive attention had to work hard to advance to the inner sect. Only then could they enjoy more resources.

Comparing the two this way, which sect’s disciples were happier?

That’s right.

The Iron Bones Clanging Sect!

Although it was only a newly emerged sect, although it had only existed for a little over a year.

But the resources Jun Changxiao gave his disciples were enough to surpass this kind of established sect by many years!

Having traveled thousands of miles to come here today, if we don’t beat you until flowers bloom everywhere, how can it be worthy of this seat’s various resource investments!

The Sacred Spring Sect outer disciples were either suppressed in realm level or restricted in grade ranking. Although occasionally someone could fight with their opponent for twenty or thirty exchanges, they still couldn’t avoid defeat in the end.

To be honest.

It was complete domination!

Boom!

Another Iron Bones Clanging Sect disciple sent a Sacred Spring Sect outer disciple flying. The number of outer disciples defeated in the epic quest increased from 29 to 30.

“Ding! Disciples have defeated Sacred Spring Sect outer disciples. Epic quest completion 20%, Host receives 400 contribution points.”

“Ding! Contribution points: 1605/2000.”

Tsk tsk.

Last time 20% gave 200 points, this time it gave 400 points. Truly very satisfying indeed.

Jun Changxiao cupped his hands and said, “Elder Jin, we’ve fought thirty matches. Shall we end the outer disciple sparring here?”

“No.”

Elder Jin said in a heavy voice, “Keep fighting!”

Thirty matches without winning a single one—what face was left?

They had to keep fighting. If not to win them all back, at least they had to claim ten or so victories to salvage some dignity!

The result?

Sima Zhongda, Cui Bujian, Lin Jianghang, and other disciples entered battle one after another, using their formidable strength to thoroughly trample the Sacred Spring Sect outer disciples beneath fists and feet.

“Boom!”

An opponent was kicked into the sky by Li Shangtian, who then used the Cloud Treading Step in midair to perform an overhead hook kick, directly blasting the opponent over three hundred meters away.

At this point.

The Iron Bones Clanging Sect claimed their fiftieth victory.

“Ding! Disciples have defeated Sacred Spring Sect outer disciples 50/50, meeting hidden criteria. Epic quest completion 30%, Host receives 200 contribution points.”

“Ding! Contribution points: 1805/2000.”

Jun Changxiao was startled, then grinned and said, “So there were actually 20 hidden victory slots.”

…

When Li Shangtian kicked his opponent flying and gracefully landed on the ground, the expressions on the faces of martial artists from various sects had already gone numb.

From the first match to the fiftieth match, in less than an hour, it was over just like that.

Sacred Spring Sect, complete defeat!

Who would have thought that a fifth-rate sect would be so thoroughly thrashed by a seventh-rate sect!

Elder Jin’s hands were trembling. If not for the presence of various faction forces, his face might have become twisted with rage!

Ma Yunteng and Wang Donglin fell silent.

The formidable strength of the Iron Bones Clanging Sect left them deeply shocked.

“Junior Sister.”

The senior sister standing beside Murong Xin said gravely, “This is truly too unbelievable!”

Her sect had the strength to sweep through fifth-rate sects, after all, they held the honored position of a second-rate sect.

But for a seventh-rate sect to accomplish this, and so cleanly and decisively—if she hadn’t witnessed it with her own eyes, she wouldn’t dare believe it!

The outer disciple battle.

The Iron Bones Clanging Sect had used their strength to ruthlessly slap the faces of various faction forces!

“Fight again!” Elder Jin said in a heavy voice.

Jun Changxiao replied, “Elder Jin, my Iron Bones Clanging Sect doesn’t have as many people as your Sacred Spring Sect. If we keep fighting like this, isn’t it a bit like bullying you?”

The original plan was to send out 53 people into battle. Since the opponent was relentless, they could only have the cheering disciples take the stage too. If they kept fighting like this, they definitely couldn’t compare to the other side’s thousands of disciples.

“How about this.”

Jun Changxiao said, “Send out inner disciples to fight.”

The outer disciples had fought enough, and they’d even triggered the hidden quest. The next step would definitely be fighting inner disciples, after all, completing the epic quest was the priority.

“Fine!”

Elder Jin agreed and raised his hand.

A man wearing a green headband walked onto the martial arts arena, his head constantly lowered, his body clearly trembling.

After a moment.

He raised his head and grinned, saying, “Jun Changxiao, do you still remember me?”

“Eh?”

Jun Changxiao said in surprise, “You are… that green-headband man who harassed my eldest disciple outside Qingyang City?”

The Iron Bones Clanging Sect disciples were instantly dumbfounded.

My heavens!

To dare harass the ice-cold Eldest Senior Sister—such commendable courage!

“Cut the nonsense.”

Dai Lü raised his hand, pointing at the group of Iron Bones Clanging Sect inner disciples with very strong auras, his gaze cold as he said, “Send out a disciple to fight me!”

“Heh.”

Jun Changxiao crossed his arms and said, “Who do you want to fight?”

“Hmph.”

Dai Lü said proudly, “Send out your strongest. I’m going to thoroughly thrash them to tell everyone present that the Sacred Spring Sect is not something a trash sect like yours can provoke!”

After the sect’s 50 consecutive losses, Green Headband Brother realized his opportunity had come, so he wanted to perform well before Elder Jin!

Perhaps this battle could allow him to advance directly from outer disciple to core disciple. Then he’d have more resource support and wouldn’t need to consider going out for training!

Keke keke!

Jun Changxiao, oh Jun Changxiao!

You and your disciples are indeed my stepping stones on Dai Lü’s path to becoming a supreme expert!

“The strongest, you say?”

Jun Changxiao began to consider.

Ye Xingchen said coldly, “Sect Leader, since he wants to find the strongest, this disciple is willing to enter battle and teach this arrogant green-headband man a lesson.”

These words made Li Qingyang and Xiao Zuiji’s lips twitch.

Junior Brother Ye, you may be stronger than us, but as for being the strongest inner disciple—going into battle without even asking Eldest Senior Sister, do you have no shame at all!
