After being expelled from the sect, I became the villain mentor

A long, distant, and clear bird song sounded from above everyone's heads, echoing throughout the Taiqing Fairyland.

Everyone looked up and saw a huge crane with its wings spread out, circling in the sky against the wind, holding a piece of document in its mouth. It slowly approached and landed next to Lin Xiaotian on the Liangyi Arena.

Lin Xiaotian took the document from the crane's mouth and gently touched the crane's huge head. The crane rubbed Lin Xiaotian's neck affectionately, then spread its huge white wings and flew away again.

Then, there was a complicated and grand conference ceremony. Lin Xiaotian gave a long speech that made Yu Nian drowsy.

There's no way around it. In Zhongzhou, people really value rituals and laws, and there are all kinds of rules and restrictions. No matter what you do, the set of procedures can confuse people.

After a long time, Lin Xiaotian's speech on the arena finally ended, and he announced the official start of the sect conference.

The peculiarity of the Yuqing Sect's illusionary formation was once again demonstrated at this moment. The contestants from various sects and schools just stood in mid-air, stepping on the air beneath their feet, and slowly walked up the slope to the arena.

This is a small formation within the larger formation. The formation patterns take shape and condense into a colorful entity. It is transparent but real, just like a glass bridge suspended in the air.

"Xiaoyan, come on." Yu Nian condensed his voice into a line to encourage Yun Yan.

The other thirty foundation-building disciples of Fengxian Academy who were about to participate in the competition also stood up from the audience seats with a sense of sacredness and headed towards the arena.

The arena has gathered sects of all sizes, with a total of three thousand foundation-building disciples from all directions.

There were huge crowds of people, and heads could be seen in the distance. Fortunately, Yu Nian and others were sitting in the VIP seats with the best view, so they could see the entire arena.

"Since there are many disciples from various sects participating in the competition, you will all enter the illusionary space on the arena to conduct the initial elimination round, and the remaining thirty will enter the semi-finals!" Lin Xiaotian's words came into his ears from afar.

Everyone gasped. The elimination rounds had a ratio of less than one in a hundred, but how could it be so intense?!

However, large sects such as Yuqing Sect were not in a hurry at all. The foundation-building disciples they selected for the competition were all people who had reached the peak of foundation-building and had extraordinary power. Moreover, before coming, these disciples had received special team coordination training.

The coordinated training of these teams plays an unparalleled role in such a melee involving thousands of people.

The lesser sects participating in the sect conference were more desperate. Not to mention that they could not gather disciples at the peak of the Foundation Establishment Realm to compete, they had not thought much about the melee when they came to the sect conference, and their preparations were really insufficient.

Just as everyone was confused, Lin Xiaotian continued to announce the rules.

"This elimination tournament uses a points system. Every Foundation Establishment disciple who eliminates one person will earn one point for their sect, and if they eliminate two people, they will earn two points.

There is no time limit for the elimination round and it ends automatically when there are thirty people left.

Every foundation-building disciple who wins a game in the competition can obtain a point for his sect. There are additional rewards for entering the top ten, which can add an extra ten points to the sect.

There are rewards for the top three. The first place will get 40 points for their sect, the second place will get 30 points, and the third place will get 20 points.

Please note that all the above-mentioned point rewards can be stacked!

Okay, enough nonsense, the competition officially begins now!"

As soon as Lin Xiaotian finished speaking, the Tai Chi Yin Yang fish under everyone's feet slowly rotated, turning into a series of dazzling phantoms, and then returned to calm.

Immediately, the world around these contestants underwent earth-shaking changes, and all three thousand disciples appeared in a new world.

A fresh breeze blew across my face.

The place is picturesque with clear water and green mountains, singing birds and fragrant flowers. It is like a paradise on earth, making people reluctant to leave and unable to help but relax their whole body.

"It feels so comfortable! This is..." Some disciples couldn't help but take a few more breaths, with strange expressions on their faces. They felt like they were floating like fairies, and then their body and mind felt relaxed, and the swords in their hands fell to the ground.

The faces of these disciples were so red that blood seemed to be dripping out, like drunk men, staggering and collapsing on the ground unconscious, and were eliminated directly.

Afterwards, this group of fallen monks disappeared in front of everyone. Before the disciples of various sects had time to start fighting, one or two tenths of the three thousand foundation-building disciples were gone.

"We cultivators should be mentally resolute and unfazed by the outside world. These disciples who lack vigilance and resistance should be eliminated directly!"

"Now, you have only entered this space with your consciousness, so start killing boldly!"

"When only thirty people are left, the elimination round ends!"

Lin Xiaotian's voice was like that of a god, echoing throughout the vast space for a long time.

The remaining monk who had fainted finally breathed a sigh of relief and woke up. He looked up at the others and then drew his sword.

In an instant, swords and knives attacked, the sound of the piano stopped, whip shadows filled the sky, the sharp edges of various weapons, and countless lights and shadows filled the entire illusory space.

However, the cultivators watching outside saw a completely different scene. The foundation-building disciples from various sects who came on stage all closed their eyes and stood still, and from time to time some disciples fell to the ground.

As time went on, the number of these fallen disciples increased.

On the huge stone tablet outside the arena, something like a scoreboard continuously displayed the current points of the sects participating in the sect conference. Soon, the Yuqing Sect climbed to the top of the list - 89.

The Divine Sword Sect followed closely behind with 88 points, ranking second, while the Yaoguang Sect ranked third with 81 points.

Even a sect like Miaodan Sect, which is not good at fighting, is ranked tenth and has formed a gap with other sects.

Fengxian Academy now has only 30 points, ranking outside the top 30.

This is the foundation of the top sects. No matter their cultivation, magic, magic weapons or even battle formations, other sects cannot match them.

In the later intense stage, the growth rate of points of each sect on the points stele slowed down and even stopped.

Ten of the thirty foundation-building disciples in Fengxian Academy were already missing. Then, while Yu Nian and the others were almost breathing hard, two more disciples fell down. At the same time, the Yaoguang Sect gained two points.

Then, three more people from the Yaoguang Sect fell. Amid the exclamations of the crowd, the Fengxian Academy gained three more points.

In this situation, it is clear that the Yaoguang Sect and the disciples of Fengxian Academy are at odds with each other!

Fortunately, after each sect lost one person and gained one more point, no one from the two sects fell again. Presumably, the disciples of both sides reached an agreement in the illusory space.

Unfortunately, although the two sides no longer fought each other, other sects had no intention of letting them go, and their numbers continued to decline.

"There are thirty people left, the elimination round is over!"

When Lin Xiaotian's voice sounded, the foundation-building disciples who were still fighting in the illusionary space opened their eyes instantly and stood back on the arena.

The Yuqing Sect is still ranked first with a total score of 189 points, while the Fengxian Academy has only 124 points, ranking 32nd.

Then, Yun Yan stared at the Yaoguang Sect disciples with an angry look on her face.
