Seeing Elder Jin blocking the air up-down-left-right all by himself, the martial artists from various factions immediately felt black lines rising on their foreheads.
Just how powerful did one’s strength have to be to pummel an Eighth-Grade Wuzong into such a pathetic state!
“Stop swaying, Elder Jin.”
Jun Changxiao shook his head and said, “This sect leader has already stopped.”
Elder Jin was startled, only then realizing that the guy wasn’t attacking at all but was standing at the edge of the martial arena. His old face immediately flushed red.
How utterly humiliating!
Wait!
He was at the edge of the martial arena?
Then where was he himself?
Elder Jin hastily looked down and discovered he had already crossed the boundary and was standing outside the martial arena.
Indeed.
He had been invisibly pummeled out by Sect Leader Jun!
Elder Jin’s rage attacked his heart. Blood within his body surged up along his throat and directly sprayed out. His body also staggered backward, nearly losing his balance and falling to the ground.
He, a dignified Eighth-Grade Wuzong, had actually been beaten out of the martial arena by a Second-Grade Wuzong—this was an utter humiliation!
“Elder Jin.”
Jun Changxiao cupped his hands with a smile and said, “I humbly accept!”
“Ding! Side quest completed, obtained 500 contribution points.”
“Ding! Contribution points: 3205/2000.”
“Ding! Sect contribution points overflow, please host within 24 hours…”
It turned out that when Elder Jin declared war, Sect Leader Jun had received a side quest to defeat him.
It seemed the system had also calculated carefully and didn’t even give it as an elite quest.
Sigh.
I said I wanted to leave, but they wouldn’t let me.
As a result, they lost face in front of everyone and gifted him 500 contribution points. Could this kind of thing… happen a few more times in the future!
Jun Changxiao was genuinely in a delighted mood right now.
After all, counting Epic Mission Three, he had already obtained 3,500 contribution points at the Lingquan Sect!
The feeling of striking it rich overnight, right!
Even more terrifying.
His contribution points had already exceeded by 1,205 points—he could definitely use them to splurge freely!
“Elder Jin.”
Jun Changxiao cupped his hands and said, “May this sect leader now take his disciples and leave?”
He was now anxious to find a place with beautiful mountains and clear waters that was also extremely auspicious to properly refresh things!
Elder Jin stood outside the martial arena, both fists clenched tight, his eyeballs filled with blood vessels. Clearly, he had reached the extreme of fury.
Opening the mountain gates wide this time and letting various factions enter—what was it for?
Wasn’t it to tell the world that any sect daring to court death by challenging their own sect would have to pay a painful price.
And the result?
The watching martial artists didn’t see how the Iron Bones Clanging Sect disciples were brutally abused, but instead witnessed the Lingquan Sect disciples being abused until they lost all will to live!
This was equivalent to opening the gates wide and letting various factions in to watch their own sect humiliate itself.
If word got out, they would definitely become a laughingstock!
If the Wei Brothers were still alive and standing before him, Elder Jin would definitely slap them all to death without hesitation.
Why?
Because they were the cause of everything!
“The disciples have competed, and the high-level members of both sides have also competed.”
Ma Yunteng stepped forward and spoke, “In my view, this challenge matter can end here.”
The Lingquan Sect had lost so much face—if he didn’t come out and say something, they would definitely continue to pester.
“Elder Jin.”
Jun Changxiao cupped his hands and said, “The journey is long. This sect leader won’t stay for a meal and will take his disciples to depart now!”
“…”
Everyone’s mouths twitched.
Brother, you’ve abused the Lingquan Sect so miserably—if you actually dared to stay for a meal, believe it or not, they’d start fighting right at the dinner table!
“We’re leaving.”
Jun Changxiao snapped his fingers and was about to turn and leave when a heavy voice came from the great hall: “Sect Leader Jun, please wait.”
“Swish! Swish!”
A white shadow descended onto the martial arena like a startled swan and swimming dragon.
It was a white-haired elder wearing long robes, about seventy years old, his entire being permeated with the aura of one who had long held a position of authority.
“Greetings to the Sect Master!” The Lingquan Sect elders and disciples all respectfully saluted!
Ma Yunteng’s brows furrowed.
At this critical moment, for the Lingquan Sect Master to appear—he probably didn’t intend to let this matter rest!
Jun Changxiao turned around and said, “Is there something else?”
The Lingquan Sect Master’s realm was peak Wuzong, his gaze exceptionally imposing. Yet when meeting his eyes, Jun Changxiao remained calm and composed.
“Impressive!” Ma Yunteng secretly praised.
Facing a powerhouse yet able to display such composure in danger—Sect Leader Jun definitely had the bearing of a great general!
The Lingquan Sect Master was also quite surprised, but he smiled and said, “Sect Leader Jun at such a young age can defeat my Lingquan Sect’s elder. It’s truly admirable.”
“Just luck, just luck,” Jun Changxiao said.
Pummeling someone into complete confusion—if that was luck, then things were truly bizarre!
“Sect Leader Jun.”
The Lingquan Sect Master said, “This sect master wishes to battle you. Will you accept?”
“This…” Jun Changxiao became conflicted.
Wang Donglin said calmly, “Sect Master Huang, Sect Leader Jun just finished battling your sect’s elder, and you immediately declare war following that. This is somewhat bullying.”
As one of the four great elders of the Cangshan Sect with cultivation at peak Wuzong, his imposing manner was completely on par with the Lingquan Sect Master.
Ma Yunteng smiled and said, “An elder has already fought. If Sect Master Huang fights again, when word spreads, people will only think the Lingquan Sect is relying on their power to bully others.”
These two elders, whose names contained the four characters of wealthy people—Yun, Teng, Wang, and Dong—were clearly siding with the Iron Bones Clanging Sect.
The martial artists from various factions could understand.
After all, within the same commandery, instead of helping their own people, should they help outsiders to unite against their own?
Thinking of this.
Many martial artists intentionally or unintentionally looked toward Alliance Leader Qin and the alliance bosses, casting them contemptuous gazes.
From the very beginning, these people seemed to be waiting to watch the Iron Bones Clanging Sect’s joke, never once thinking that if they defeated the Lingquan Sect, wouldn’t that bring honor and glory to their own commandery!
Realizing that everyone was despising them, some alliance bosses’ faces immediately showed shame.
However, Alliance Leader Qin and Shen Tong still stood firm.
They thought inwardly, “Punk, the Lingquan Sect Master has declared war on you—hurry up and accept the challenge!”
Alas.
Completely beyond saving.
“Elder Ma, Elder Wang.”
The Lingquan Sect Master said unhurriedly, “Sect Leader Jun can rest at my sect for a period of time and we can battle on another day.”
“…”
Ma Yunteng and Wang Donglin’s expressions immediately turned ugly.
The martial artists from various factions also realized that the Lingquan Sect Master didn’t intend to let Sect Leader Jun leave.
Thinking about it, that made sense.
The Iron Bones Clanging Sect came to challenge and fought seventy-three matches, with the Lingquan Sect losing all of them. If they let him walk away, where would the sect put its face?
It seemed.
If Sect Leader Jun didn’t go back with some injuries, this matter definitely wouldn’t end.
“Li’er.”
Qi Jingxuan said, “Sect Leader Jun seems to have encountered some trouble. Should this Palace Master go help him out of his predicament?”
Li’er said helplessly, “My Palace Master, this is a matter between their Iron Bones Clanging Sect and the Lingquan Sect. Let’s not get involved.”
“Sect Leader Jun is a remarkable person. This Palace Master doesn’t want to see him bullied by Sect Master Huang,” Qi Jingxuan said.
Li’er said seriously, “Palace Master must consider carefully. Going to help this guy will cause unpleasantness with the Lingquan Sect.”
“They didn’t win a single match out of seventy-three. Even if we antagonize such a sect, it doesn’t really matter, does it?” Qi Jingxuan said.
Miss.
Those words pierce the Lingquan Sect’s heart!
Qi Jingxuan rose from the small pavilion. Just as she was about to speak up to help Jun Changxiao escape his predicament, she heard him laugh and say, “Sect Master Huang, there’s no time like the present. Since we’re to battle, let’s do it now.”
