All beasts submit, and the peerless imperial princess is about to defy the heavens!

The four elders haven't taken on any disciples for many years; they mainly accept disciples from the six peaks.

Since Feng Ning has already joined the Fourth Elder's sect, there is naturally no need for her to participate further. The first person to be chosen is Yao Feibai.

The people of Wu Feng were naturally the first to step forward. Elder Wen Yao asked directly, "Yao Feibai, would you be willing to join my Wu Feng?"

He was originally a sword cultivator, so of course he wanted to join the Martial Peak. Moreover, he had just lost in his most prized area, so he naturally wanted to improve even further.

So he agreed without hesitation, took two steps forward, and respectfully bowed to the stage, saying, "This disciple is willing."

Wen Yao nodded in satisfaction, officially joining the inner sect.

He then asked the other two, Duan Menghua and Liu Yuanxiu, and both of them expressed their willingness to join.

With that, the arena competition came to an end.

Next came the competition among some special disciples.

There are many types of spiritual practice, some are specifically offensive, and others are auxiliary.

Most of the auxiliary spiritual cultivators are not very powerful, so it is difficult for them to win against other spiritual cultivators by force alone.

So they were just going through the motions; the real competition was yet to come.

After that, there were special elders who organized competitions in alchemy, weapon crafting, talismans, and formations.

As for beast taming, it directly tests the affinity with spirit beasts. After all, beast taming requires communicating with spirit beasts. If you don't even have affinity, you basically have no talent.

The other elders weren't very interested just now, but now many of them are getting excited.

This competition lasted for two whole days before it ended.

Feng Ning was utterly bored.

She really wanted to try out the array master competition, but after thinking about it, she restrained herself.

She should be given some room to shine. If she continues to steal the spotlight, many people will probably hate her.

After the competition ended, Feng Ning and his apprentice finally returned to Xiaoyao Peak.

“Master, no wonder you don’t like participating in these kinds of activities. They’re so tiring, even more tiring than cultivation. It’s just a thankless task.”

Nian Zhao was also a little bored. "That's right. It's not as interesting as cultivation. Alright, it's already dawn. Let's not waste any more time. I'll take you to the library to see if there are any sword techniques suitable for you to practice."

Feng Ning's eyes lit up, and she immediately stood up. "Okay."

Nian Zhao glanced at her. "You used swordsmanship yesterday too. I thought it was pretty good. Don't you like it?"

Feng Ning sighed, "That sword technique is only suitable for swords with great power like Shadow and Gongbu. But if that's the case, then I can't use my other swords. I want to find a sword technique that allows me to use all my swords."

"You have a nice idea."

"Of course!" Feng Ning was a little proud. "I'm going to become an elite disciple, so of course I have to be better than others."

The two didn't say anything more and went straight to the library.

With the elders leading the way, there was no place in the library that the two of them couldn't go.

After rummaging through it for two days, Feng Ning finally found a sword manual that satisfied her greatly.

Moreover, it is of a very high grade, considered one of the highest-grade cultivation techniques in the Tianxuan Sect's collection, a Saint-level sword manual—"Peerless Sword Technique".

This sword technique was not something the two of them could produce on their own. In the end, they had to ask the sect leader for permission before they could reveal it.

Of course, you have to return this precious sword technique after you've learned it.

Feng Ning happily took the Peerless Sword Manual back with her.

This sword manual truly deserves the title of "unrivaled," and it is perfectly suited for Feng Ning.

This is a flying sword manual. As long as your skill is sufficient, you can control many flying swords at the same time and greatly unleash the power of each sword.

A sword like hers, with its different attributes and temperaments, cannot be fully unleashed by a single sword manual.

This peerless sword manual perfectly solves this problem. It allows her to control each sword to unleash its power and even enhance it.

Feng Ning was so happy she was completely lost.

So, on the day she returned, she immediately went into seclusion.

Nian Zhao remained silent.

Do you know where this place is?

This is Xiaoyao Peak!

He believed in living freely between heaven and earth, and he also practiced the Free and Unfettered Sword Technique.

How come the disciple I took in turned out to be a cultivation fanatic?

He's always going into seclusion, and he's always disappearing. How can I possibly roam freely with him?

This disciple should follow the second senior brother. The second senior brother, that cultivation madman, and this little cultivation madman, are a perfect match!

He could only run to the sect leader to complain.

The sect leader rolled his eyes at him and said, "Just shut up. You should be grateful to have a disciple like this. If you really raise her to be like you, I'll give you a good thrashing."

"Senior brother, aren't you taking my side now?"

The sect leader handed Gongbu directly to him and then shooed him outside, saying, "Get out of here! Send Gongbu to that girl and let her practice properly. Also, take the divine magic you have. Both of these are good swords. Don't let her favor one over the other."

Nian Zhao pursed her lips.

Do I need to remind you?

He had already returned the divine magic to her. Since he was going to practice it, the divine magic had to become the strongest among the seven swords so that he wouldn't fall behind.

"Okay, okay, I'm leaving now."

He's such a pitiful little cabbage that nobody loves.

But when he thought of his little apprentice, he happily took the cloth back and handed it to her.

He then went to visit other people's homes.

Feng Ning, that little girl, also knows some formations. He needs to build a good relationship with the elders of the Formation Peak to pave the way for their little apprentice!

When she comes out, I'll let that little girl see the empire I've built for her!

In the months that followed, the elders of the six peaks were almost driven crazy by this fourth elder.

Every day, whether they have something to do or not, they would come to their peak to wander around. The key point is that when they wander around, they would also chat with them.

You seem to have nothing to do on Xiaoyao Peak, quite idle indeed, but others aren't as idle as you.

Everyone was complaining, and they were about to complain to the sect leader.

If it weren't for the fact that he could occasionally motivate the disciples' cultivation, they would have kicked him out long ago.

It must be said that this Fourth Elder has a great deal of charm.

After all, they were young people, unlike the old men. They understood the minds of young people very well and had them completely under their thumb, keeping them working up a high level of enthusiasm for cultivation all day long.

Every now and then, they would talk about how ambitious their young apprentice was, to provoke others.

And you know what? It's quite effective. Many disciples have gone into seclusion and vowed to outdo this new junior sister.

Every time Nian Zhao defeated someone, he would go back in a happy mood.
