I can't keep a low profile when cultivating immortality; the sixth one is actually myself.

The first round of the sect competition, the secret realm trial, has come to a successful conclusion.

Some are happy and some are sad.

The inner disciples suffered the fewest casualties, with more than a dozen still missing.

The outer disciples suffered a tragic fate, with more than eighty perishing in the jaws of demonic beasts.

More than 3,200 miscellaneous disciples returned, but nearly 4,000 miscellaneous disciples attended the meeting.

More than 700 people were lost at once.

No one mourns those who have died!

Because this is the reality of the cultivation world.

Countless people embarked on the path to immortality; countless others perished along the way.

Whether in the mortal realm or the cultivation world, only a few will be remembered in the torrent of history!

More than 99 percent of people have been lost in the long river of history, leaving no trace.

Will anyone remember the ordinary people of the previous era in this one?

No, not one!

Just like ordinary people in the mortal world, once they are beyond the fifth degree of kinship, who can still remember who their ancestors were?

Ordinary people in every era are like green leaves on a tree, setting off a few flowers that are praised by the world before quietly withering away.

Nobody cares how many green leaves there are or how they grow! All they care about are those few flowers!

Extraordinary beauty will be remembered, and so will extraordinary ugliness.

The green leaves, however, will repeat their fate again and again in the cycle of spring growth and autumn decay.

However, none of this affects those who are alive, because life must go on.

The disciples who are due for promotion have all received official certification from the sect and have been promoted one level.

The disciples who were to be punished were all demoted.

Next up is the competition for the core sequence of inner disciples, which is currently the hottest topic in the entire sect.

The core sequence competition is scheduled to begin three days from now, still at the outer gate square.

In the blink of an eye, three days have passed.

Today, the outer gate square was once again packed with people.

Regardless of their status as disciples, most people wouldn't miss out on anything exciting to watch.

At this time, 10 circular arenas had been set up in a row in the outer square.

Behind the arena is a high platform, which is where the elders preside over the competition and where the elders from each branch watch the battle.

A large gong is placed to one side of the platform; it is the starting gong.

As the elders from various branches arrived one after another, the second round of the sect competition, the martial arts contest, was about to begin.

At this time, the top 100 disciples in the inner sect trial had all arrived.

At the appointed time, a disciple immediately struck the starting gong.

With a loud bang, the entire room fell silent.

An inner sect elder walked out from the platform and went to the center of the platform.

"The second round of the Inner Sect Competition, the martial arts contest, has officially begun."

All participating disciples will draw lots to determine their opponents, forming pairs of ten pairs per round.

Labels 1 and 51 form the first group, labels 2 and 52 form the second group, and so on.

"Now all participating disciples, please come forward one by one to begin drawing lots." After the elder finished speaking, he walked to the drawing table below the stage.

Each participating disciple only needs to draw one tag from the lottery box.

In less than fifteen minutes, all one hundred disciples had completed the drawing of lots.

Toyokawa drew number 36. In the third round, on stage number six, his opponent was number 76.

We don't know who it is yet, but we'll find out soon.

At this moment, the first round of the arena battles had officially begun.

There were 20 people standing on 10 arenas, including one of Toyokawa's acquaintances.

It was early summer when Huangfu Chuxia stood on ring number 2. Her opponent was a tall young man.

With all 10 arenas in place, another clanging gong sounded.

"The first round of competition officially begins!" With the elder's command, the battles immediately commenced on the 10 arenas.

On Arena No. 2, Huangfu Chuxia instantly unleashed her cultivation realm of the fifth level of Spirit Gathering.

The tall young man opposite her was stunned.

Holy crap, is he that fierce? I'm only at the first level of the Spirit Gathering Realm, and he's already at the fifth level!

How am I supposed to fight this? Won't I get killed? This is so damn unlucky!

"I, I admit defeat!" The tall young man immediately knelt down. What was the point of this competition? They were not even in the same league.

After the tall young man finished speaking, he stepped off the stage and stood aside.

He plans to find an opponent to challenge later and is currently keeping an eye on the battles on other arenas.

At this moment, Huangfu Chuxia stood alone on the arena, feeling a little embarrassed. She had expected a serious battle, but it turned out she had only revealed her cultivation level briefly, and that was it!

At this moment, Fengchuan and his group below the stage all gave a thumbs up and shouted, "Senior Sister Huangfu is awesome! Senior Sister Huangfu is great!"

Before long, the first round of competition ended. The winners all stood on one side of the high platform.

The second round begins. He Buwei and Shangguan Fei are both present, but their opponents are disciples from other branches.

Why not use arena number 3, while Shangguan Fei is in arena number 7?

The arenas are not far apart, and there are formations protecting them during the fights, so there is no need to choose an arena to watch the battles.

All ten arena battles can be seen at a glance.

He Buwei's opponent was also at the first level of the Spirit Gathering Realm. After discovering that He Buwei was at the third level of the Spirit Gathering Realm, he symbolically tested him a few moves before voluntarily admitting defeat.

The fight on Shangguan Fei's side was more intense; they were both at the second level of the Spirit Gathering Realm.

They exchanged dozens of blows, their shadows blurring on the stage, yet the fight ended in a draw, a truly even contest.

While the other arenas had already decided their winners, the two of them were still fighting.

It wasn't until an incense stick had burned that Shangguan Fei's opponent ran out of spiritual energy and narrowly lost a move, thus losing the fight.

Thus concludes the second round of competition. He Buwei and Shangguan Fei both emerged victorious.

Next, the third round of competition.

Fengchuan stepped onto arena number 6. His opponent was a man with a resolute face, whose cultivation level was the first stage of the Spirit Gathering Realm.

After Fengchuan revealed his third level of Spirit Gathering Realm, the man opposite him became serious and fully alert.

As soon as the dueling gong sounded, the man immediately used his movement technique to quickly flash to Toyokawa's side, and then punched Toyokawa hard.

But he didn't feel any real force; it was like punching thin air.

Indeed, this was the case; at this moment, Toyokawa's body had already appeared where the man had just been standing.

The man knew that his opponent was no slower than him and was even more skilled, so he felt a lot of pressure.

So he used all his strength to move around, chasing after Toyokawa and dodging back and forth.

The audience below the stage were shocked to see one after another afterimage appearing on the stage.

Have these two spent all their training time on movement techniques? They're so fast!

After chasing each other dozens of times, Toyokawa felt that it was about time.

Suddenly accelerating again, he appeared directly behind the man. With a swift chop to the back of the man's neck, the man immediately lost consciousness.

Toyokawa, victory!

In the fourth round, He Lanxi and Nangong Yue also took to the stage. Both of them were at the fourth level of the Spirit Gathering Realm and won easily.

However, Zhao Yunfei was not very lucky. He encountered a disciple who was ranked among the top ten on the Inner Sect's Prodigy Ranking and was unfortunately defeated.

However, he wasn't worried, since there was still the challenge match. With his strength, challenging a weaker opponent wouldn't be a problem.

In the fifth round, Du Shaoling and Sima Jinghong took to the stage. Their opponents were also at the first level of the Spirit Gathering Realm, and they won relatively easily.

At this point, the top 50 players in the inner gate have been determined.

Next up is the challenge segment.

Many disciples who felt they had lost unfairly challenged the new disciples.

Some people succeed and some people fail.

However, Zhao Yunfei succeeded in the challenge and entered the top 50.
