Chapter 65: Another One of the Top Three Mystic Realm Sects, Green Phoenix Mountain
Just as Victor was sighing with emotion, Song Qianqian, whose face was flushed red, finally reached the mountain gate. Seeing Song Qianqian sweating profusely, Victor smiled with relief and waved his hand happily.
Although she barely passed, Song Qianqian’s age and her cultivation of the middle stage of the sixth level of spirit condensation were enough to shock people.
After an hour, the mountain gate test finally came to an end. Many cultivators collapsed on the steps. No matter how hard they tried, they were still unable to set foot on the mountain gate. Hua Feng and Gu Xu were unable to pass the test in the end.
There were only 120 or so cultivators left. Among these 120 or so people, more than 70% of the disciples were from the seven peaks of the Heavenly Sword Mountain, and only a few dozen people from the outside sects and the ten great cultivation families were left.
Many cultivators who were not strong enough were eliminated because they could not pass the test of the spiritual energy attacks.
Each of those spiritual energies was equivalent to an ordinary attack of a fifth-level spirit gathering realm cultivator. The beginner-stage of the spirit gathering realm cultivators who were not strong enough could not withstand the dozens of continuous spiritual energy attacks.
Most of the external sects were completely wiped out. Only Victor and Song Qianqian were left in the Qingyun Sect. They stood out among the external sects. After all, two out of four people succeeded, and there was a 50% success rate.
In addition, only the top sects like the Xuanming Sect and the Sword Hut could have disciples successfully reach the end.
However, compared to the other sects, the cultivation realms of the Qingyun Sect disciples were not considered high. It was surprising that they could achieve such results on this climb.
As for the top ten cultivation distinguished families, their situation was slightly better than the sects of the outside world. The ancient distinguished families would usually have a disciple that they would focus on nurturing. Therefore, there would basically be at least one person left, where some larger distinguished families would have two or three people left.
After stepping into the Heavenly Sword Mountain’s mountain gate, Victor immediately felt that the surrounding heaven and earth’s spiritual energy was 60% to 70% denser. If he cultivated here all year round, he would achieve twice the result with half the effort.
He turned around and glanced at the mountain gate, only to see that there were faint flickering of spells on the mountain gate. It was obvious that there was a spell’s script carved on the mountain gate.
Victor was not the only one who discovered the rich heaven and earth spiritual energy in the Heavenly Sword Mountain.
Many young disciples who came to Heavenly Sword Mountain for the first time were also amazed by this. While they were sighing and discussing, they also began to envy the resources that the Heavenly Sword Mountain sect disciples had.
In a small stone building not far away from the main road of the mountain.
A few disciples of the Heavenly Sword Mountain stood there and looked at the crowded crowd not far away. They were full of mockery at the expressions of the cultivators from the outside world who looked like country bumpkins entering the city.
“Is that the person?” A purple-clothed man stood at the front and pointed his finger subtly at the crowd and asked a disciple beside him softly.
“Yes, that’s the guy. His name is Victor. He’s the one who injured Young Master Nangong.”
“What’s his rank in this round?”
Although the rank couldn’t be used to describe his strength, it was still very useful.
“Around 30. I didn’t count carefully.”
“Not bad. With such a rank, I don’t have to worry about him not being able to advance. It’s for the best. I’ll make him regret it.” The young man in white said with a smile on his face.
At this moment, Victor, who was in the crowd, suddenly turned his head and looked at him.
Their eyes met. Victor smiled slightly and turned his head away.
The man in white felt a chill in his heart.
“His senses are indeed sharp. He can even notice when others are observing him. Very well, I’m getting more and more interested.”
Victor obviously noticed. After all, his current strength was a half-step grandmaster, ninth level of the spirit gathering realm. Now, the system’s detection range had expanded to a radius of 200 meters.
As long as someone within 200 meters had malicious intent towards him, he would be able to detect it immediately.
Three days later, the competition officially began.
The competition venue was set at the main peak of Heavenly Sword Mountain, Sword Control Peak, which was also where the sect master of Heavenly Sword Mountain was located.
Sword Control Peak was 60,000 feet tall. The mountain body was incomparably huge, and it emitted an invisible pressure. Weaker cultivators would feel heavy pressure just by climbing the mountain, and they would only be able to display 50% of their full strength.
The morning sun had just risen, and the square in front of the Sword Control Peak’s main hall had already gathered over a thousand people.
Among them were the disciples of the Heavenly Sword Mountain who had not participated in the competition, as well as people from the upper ranks of the great distinguished families and the other peaks of the Heavenly Sword Mountain. Everyone was looking forward to their disciples obtaining a good result.
The square in the main hall had a perimeter of ten miles.
At this time, it had already been divided into nine regions, forming a nine grid box. Each region was separated by a spell, and these spells that covered the entire region could isolate spiritual energy and prevent danger.
There were a total of 126 young disciples who had successfully climbed the mountain before. They would be divided into nine groups, with 14 people per group. Each group would have seven people as the starters. In total, the nine groups would have a total of 63 people who would be starting.
This was the first round of the grand competition, where the top 63 people would be decided.
The young disciples who were eliminated would still have a chance. They could fight for the following rankings. In short, as long as they were in the top 100, they would get a definite ranking.
Victor had already found out where his group was — Group Eight. This group wasn’t drawn by lot, but was arranged by the Heavenly Sword Mountain.
The outside sects, the Qingyun Sect, and the Xuanming Sect belonged to the same competition zone. This time, the competition would be divided into five groups. In addition to the other forces and cultivation families, there were a total of five forces.
Victor sized up the competition venue. At this moment, he heard a clear and sharp cry coming from above his head.
When he raised his head, he saw a huge green mythical bird spreading its wings and circling in the sky above Tianhuan Mountain. The green mythical bird that was looking down from above was filled with an imposing manner that looked down on the world.
This mythical bird was more than twice the size of the huge black-feathered eagle that they rode on previously.
“It’s the people from the Green Phoenix Mountain. They’re really arrogant. They didn’t even descend when they arrived at our mountain gate. They’re still circling in the sky.”
“There’s nothing we can do. After all, they’re part of the top three mystic realm sects. Moreover, Green Phoenix Mountain has become more and more powerful in the past hundred years. They’re steadily suppressing us. That’s why the sect master went to recruit these external disciples. It’s nothing more than to seek change.”
Victor heard some of the Heavenly Sword Mountain’s disciples discussing in low voices from afar. He felt a little strange in his heart.
In the plot, wasn’t Green Phoenix Mountain a rank lower than the Heavenly Sword Mountain?
How could it develop better than the Heavenly Sword Mountain?
No, the Green Phoenix Mountain appeared earlier than the Heavenly Sword Mountain. The Heavenly Sword Mountain appeared earlier, and the world had already changed.
“A top-three mystic realm sect? What does this mean?” Victor hadn’t thought about this division of power.
Hearing Victor’s doubt, Song Xiuwen smiled and said, “You should go out on strolls rather than cultivating all day long when you are free. It is good for you.
“Besides the Heavenly Sword Mountain, the Green Phoenix Mountain is also part of the top-three sects, and its strength is a bit stronger than the Heavenly Sword Mountain.
“Especially in the past few hundred years, the Green Phoenix Mountain had produced a few geniuses, and become the best among the top three sects.
“Every time there’s a competition, the Green Phoenix Mountain will send people to observe through the teleportation spell to understand the strength of the younger generation of the Heavenly Sword Mountain. Of course, the Heavenly Sword Mountain will also send people to the martial arts competition held in their sect.”
