In my cultivation journey, I completely crushed a group of chosen ones.

Stepping through the mountain gate, a wide bluestone avenue stretches straight ahead, seemingly reaching the sky.

On both sides of the avenue, towering ancient trees stand tall, their branches and leaves lush, like giant umbrellas that block out the sun.

Sunlight filters through the gaps in the leaves, creating dappled patterns of light and shadow, a scene both dreamlike and enchanting.

The guiding elder moored the cloud boat in a vast and boundless area, large enough to hold hundreds of thousands of people, where it was bustling with activity.

This square seems to have been meticulously sculpted by the gods, with its surface paved with hard, smooth jade slabs, as smooth as a mirror.

In the very center of the venue, a colossal sword-shaped sculpture soars into the clouds, its blade pointing straight to the heavens, radiating an incomparably sharp sword intent.

The group carefully descended. Tens of thousands of people here were like ants among a herd of elephants, extremely insignificant.

Everyone found everything novel and looked around curiously.

The elder who guided the way didn't say anything, thinking back to how he himself had gone through the same thing.

"Someone will come to arrange your whereabouts shortly. Just follow the instructions of the elder in charge."

After the elder finished speaking, he disappeared from the spot; their mission was complete.

Before long, an elder, dressed in a gray robe that signifies a deacon, slowly approached.

"You are all new disciples. I am the elder in charge. Listen carefully to what I am about to say. I will only say it once."

Here, the first assignment is based on your achievements in the Path of Heaven. Those who reach the threshold of five thousand steps to become disciples will be assigned to menial tasks.

Eight thousand steps is considered excellent, qualifying one for entry into the outer sect.

Those who walk more than 12,000 steps on the Path to Heaven are considered outstanding and can enter the inner sect.

Those who can persist in walking 15,000 steps or more on the Path to Heaven.

They are then considered as promising disciples by the sect and can become elder disciples.

As for true disciples, disciples of the Supreme Elders, Holy Sons, and Divine Sons, you are not qualified yet.

The first month's salary was based on this performance, and the accommodation was also based on this performance.

As for the second month, it's up to you to fight for it. If you want to advance, go and fight for the future.

That's a folded space where your best records will be copied.

From now on, it will remain in the Challenge Heaven and Earth, for others to challenge, and so will others.

The battle record is refreshed on the last day of each month, and the monthly bonus is also based on this record.

Furthermore, fighting is forbidden within the sect. Those with grudges should go to the life-or-death arena; if they die, no one will hold them accountable.

Alright, based on your scores, take your identity jade tokens from the Peerless Sword Sect.

The elder waved his hand, and countless storage bags rained down from the sky, like a hailstorm.

Different grades, different colors of light shine upon them.

Di Qingci caught a red ball of light.

Some people see a gray orb of light in front of them, but they don't want it and try to snatch the white one. The white orb of light seems to be alive and remains completely still.

The elder deacon shook his head: "Take it according to your own performance, don't think about taking shortcuts."

Gray, white, pink, and red. The four colors float in the air, and everyone can only receive the items according to their corresponding scores.

Emperor Junlin, holding a red ball of light, walked towards Emperor Qingci: "Qingci, let's choose a place to stay together."

Di Qingci nodded and dripped his blood directly onto the jade tablet, which displayed the route of the Peerless Sword Sect, all clearly marked.

He then opened the storage bag, inside which was a book of sect rules, the living quarters for disciples of different ranks, and a monthly interest.

Di Qingci took out the disciples' residence and said, "Brother, let's go this way."

The mountain where the elders and disciples lived had exquisite pavilions scattered in a well-organized manner on its mountainside.

These pavilions are built in a simple and elegant style, with flying eaves, brackets, carved beams and painted rafters.

The vermilion pillars and the bluish-gray tiles complement each other perfectly, shimmering with a warm glow under the sunlight.

Di Qingci chose the streamside: "Big brother, I think we can come here for a late-night snack if we want something to eat in the future."

Emperor Junlin nodded: "You can decide." It doesn't matter where he lives.

The gray color indicates that no one lives there. Several wooden houses are arranged in a staggered manner. The houses are made of carefully selected century-old wood, which exudes a faint woody fragrance.

After settling in, Di Qingci and Di Junlin sat together that evening.

Di Qingci read the sect rules: "Big brother, we also have to complete sect tasks every month."

Fortunately, we had already started cultivating. Tomorrow we'll familiarize ourselves with the sect and then go out on missions.

It also helps to improve combat skills, which is the best way to increase cultivation level as quickly as possible.

To stand out in the sect, one must cultivate diligently; there are tens of millions of disciples here alone.

As new disciples, we won't attract much attention. Once we return from our mission, we'll go challenge the Heaven and Earth Battlegrounds. What do you think?

"Yes, you make a good point. Let's familiarize ourselves with the sect's rules and regulations before going out to gain experience."

The two went out early in the morning. There were many pedestrians on the road, and no one was curious about strangers.

There are just too many people here, and I encounter a huge number of strangers every day.

The two went to the sect's information office, where all kinds of information could be found and missions could be posted.

This place features celebrities from various lists, and the Battle Universe is divided into several categories.

The first type of yellow list is for Qi Refining disciples to challenge.

The challengers on the leaderboard are Foundation Establishment cultivators.

The challenger on the Earth Ranking is a Golden Core cultivator.

The challengers on the Heavenly Ranking are Nascent Soul cultivators.

In addition, there is the Prodigy Ranking. Those who make it onto the Prodigy Ranking are either disciples of elders or true disciples.

There is also a special group of people: inner disciples with explosive combat power.
