I have a martial arts panel.

Chapter 281 This is too much!

"This is quite a good location for the sect gathering..."

Xu Ning, He Mingye, and Si Ying found the location of the sect gathering in Zuiyue County.

This is a lush garden, where spring flowers and green leaves, full of vitality, extend beyond the walls.

At this time, disciples from various sects continued to enter, and some non-sect martial artists also entered after paying with Pure Origin Pills.

Xu Ning and his two companions arrived at the entrance of the Prosperous Garden and handed over three hundred Pure Origin Pills.

After that, they entered the garden.

Under the guidance of a designated person, Xu Ning and his group were led to a viewing platform.

The open space below is the venue for the upcoming sect conference, where various factions will exchange skills and engage in combat.

Currently, the venue is almost full, with disciples from various sects standing ready.

The young disciples from all sides, in particular, were filled with fighting spirit. They all hoped to stand out in this setting, gain the favor of their sect's higher-ups, and thus receive more resources.

"Have the people from the Source Life Sect arrived yet...?"

Xu Ning looked around but couldn't find any trace of Teng Yunkong or Gu Man.

"Currently, the strongest person in the arena is only at the fourth level of the Dao Realm, the Core Formation Realm..."

Xu Ning also sensed it.

As Xu Ning had predicted, Zuiyue County was not a powerful county, and there were not many experts.

"Every time I see a scene like this, I think of the demon-slaying ceremony in our Yuelan Sect more than three years ago."

Looking at the scene, He Mingye said with a smile, "Junior brother, you shone brightly at that demon-slaying conference in the sect, which caught Master's eye and made you his disciple."

"It was from that time that you made rapid progress on the path of martial arts, quickly leaving everyone behind and eventually achieving the Dao Realm."

Xu Ning smiled upon hearing this.

He still vividly remembers the scene.

"Look, aren't those people from the Source Sect?"

At this moment, Si Ying pointed to another entrance.

Xu Ning and He Mingye turned their gazes in that direction.

"It should be because their clothing is the same as that of the disciples of the Yuanbei Yuansheng Sect."

He Mingye affirmed.

"Yes, it's them."

Xu Ning also spotted Teng Yunkong and Gu Man in that group.

"Five Dao Realm Grandmasters have arrived from the Origin Sect. One of them is at the second level of the Dao Realm, the Qi Refining Realm, and the other four are at the first level of the Dao Realm, the Body Fusion Realm..."

Xu Ning stared at the leading member of the Yuansheng Sect for a long time.

Xu Ning knew that this Qi Condensation Grandmaster should be Xin Andao, the sect leader of the Yuansheng Sect.

"Sect Master, none of these people have any good intentions..."

After entering the venue, Teng Yunkong followed behind Xin Andao.

He observed the other sect members and noticed that they all looked at them with amusement.

Xin Andao did not speak, but his eyes showed a hint of caution and coldness.

Yuanshengzong found his seat and sat down. The atmosphere in the group was somewhat oppressive, and no one whispered among themselves.

Whether they were sect elders or disciples, their expressions were somewhat somber.

In stark contrast, after other sects entered the venue, their high-ranking members engaged in lively conversations and exchanges.

"Just as the waiter said, the Origin Sect is having a tough time right now..."

Xu Ning kept his eyes on the direction of the Origin Sect and noticed that they were clearly in an isolated situation.

"Should we go over and acknowledge them?"

Si Ying asked Xu Ning.

"No rush."

Xu Ning said, "Let's see how things develop."

At this time, more and more people were gathered in the venue. The stands in this lush garden were already full of people, with only the central seats at the edge of the stands remaining empty.

Not long after, someone suddenly shouted.

"Prefect Ji has arrived!"

In an instant, all the elders and disciples of the major sects stood up and looked in the direction where the prefect was coming from.

The governor of Zuiyue County was a middle-aged man whose demeanor was very similar to that of Wei Xiongjian of Guanghe County.

"Fifth level of the Dao Realm..."

Xu Ning realized that this Prefect Ji's cultivation level was similar to his own.

However, Xu Ning easily sensed his strength, but Prefect Ji did not notice Xu Ning's presence.

It wasn't because Xu Ning used the Concealment Ring to hide his aura, but simply because his strength was greater, allowing him to conceal his aura more thoroughly.

"Prefect Ji!"

In an instant, the high-ranking members of various sects paid their respects to Prefect Ji.

This season's prefect is not only of high status, but also the strongest in terms of strength and prestige, enjoying great prestige.

"Please be seated, everyone!"

Prefect Ji waved his hand: "I am only here today to admire the style of each sect. I am just a visitor. There is no need for you to pay too much attention to me."

After saying this, Prefect Ji sat down on an empty chair by the platform.

Beside him sat the sect leaders of two sects, both of whom were at the fourth level of the Dao Realm and the Core Formation Realm.

The two men chatted and laughed with Prefect Ji while glancing occasionally toward the direction of the Yuansheng Sect.

Not long after the arrival of this prefect, the sun was at its highest point in the sky.

At this moment, someone stepped onto the stage and began to preside over the conference of various sects.

The host first gave a few standard remarks, and then explained the procedures for this sect conference.

First, disciples from all sides drew lots to spar, and then elders and sect leaders from all sides challenged each other to spar.

This made many outsiders who had brought in a hundred Pure Origin Pills feel incredibly satisfied.

They not only get to witness the competition between sect disciples, but also the contests between high-ranking members of various sects and Dao Realm Grandmasters, which is extremely rare under normal circumstances.

Subsequently, disciples from all sides began to take to the field and engage in combat.

"The disciples of the sects in Wansheng Prefecture not only possess high cultivation levels, but also have a deeper understanding of martial arts!"

Sitting in the stands, He Mingye watched the exchanges between the disciples of the Void Realm and couldn't help but sigh.

"That's right, our outstanding disciples from Yuanbei are hard to compare with them."

Si Ying said, "The martial arts foundation of Wansheng Prefecture is truly terrifying."

This was also the first time Xu Ning had directly observed the competition between disciples of the Wanshengzhou sect.

He also realized that the gap between his Yanlu Sect disciples and these people was quite obvious.

"It's time for the disciples of the Source Sect to take the stage!"

Xu Ning and the other two observed carefully.

On the stage, the Yuansheng Sect disciple and another disciple were both at the ninth level of the Void Realm True Domain.

As soon as they stepped onto the stage, there were no formalities; they immediately unleashed their domains and began a frenzied battle.

"That was intense!"

He Mingye watched with great interest.

"Both sides are using extremely tricky techniques; this is no longer a simple exchange of blows..."

Xu Ning narrowed his eyes. He noticed that the intensity of the battles between the Yuansheng Sect disciples was much higher than before.

In their previous encounters, both sides exercised restraint, knowing their limits and stopping short of confrontation.

However, both of them on stage were clearly ruthless, and if one was not careful, one could be seriously injured.

Bang!

Suddenly, after feinting, the opponent's disciple struck the Yuansheng Sect disciple directly in the chest.

The disciple of the Yuansheng Sect had his chest collapse instantly, and a mouthful of blood spurted out. He fainted in mid-air.

Even so, the opposing disciples did not let him go, but launched a series of attacks in mid-air, further injuring the Yuansheng Sect disciples.

When he landed on the ground, his clothes were completely soaked in blood.

"This is outrageous!"

Below the stage, Teng Yunkong was furious.

The armrest of the seat he was sitting on had been crushed.

Teng Yunkong was about to rush onto the stage when Xin Andao stopped him.

"Soaring Clouds, calm down!"

Xin Andao's face was also ashen, but he remained rational and restrained his anger.

"metropolitan!"

Teng Yunkong gritted his teeth, suppressing his anger as he sat down.

"Those people are just waiting for you to rush in. They're all waiting for you to lose your temper and get out of control so they can find an excuse to severely injure or even kill you."

Gu Man, standing beside him, also grabbed Teng Yunkong's arm: "If you really want to vent your anger, then challenge someone else."

Teng Yunkong managed to calm himself down with difficulty.

The three people in the stands, including Xu Ning, also looked unhappy.

Although they are not from the Yuansheng Sect, the Yuansheng Sect comes from Yuanbei, and so do they.

The feeling right now is like that of a fellow villager who is also wandering far from home being bullied.

"It's supposed to be a friendly spar, but how can a friendly spar involve such force!"

He Mingye was furious.

Si Ying also felt strongly dissatisfied: "This is clearly aimed at taking lives."

Xu Ning remained silent.

However, he also knew that the Yuansheng Sect might be in greater danger in the upcoming sparring match.

As expected, everything went exactly as Xu Ning had predicted.

Whenever a disciple of the Yuansheng Sect goes on stage to spar, the opposing side always sends out a ruthless and powerful individual.

Not only are they strong, but they are also ruthless; they are all disciples with practical combat experience.

Meanwhile, the Yuansheng Sect suffered repeated defeats, and many of its members were seriously injured, causing their morale to plummet.

Xin Andao, Teng Yunkong, Gu Man, and the others were indignant, but there was nothing they could do.

At this moment, two sect leaders were exchanging whispers.

"Look at the expressions on the faces of those people from the Source Sect..."

The speaker was an overweight man with a thick beard, and his tone was mocking.

"Insufficient strength, yet attempting to seize such a large area of ​​Azure-Veined Cold Iron Ore, truly showing a lack of self-awareness."

The other person was wearing a long robe, with narrow eyes, and looked sinister.

"If it weren't for the sake of the prefect's face and not wanting to cause too much of a bad influence in the prefecture, I would have joined forces with several sects long ago and razed the Yuansheng Sect to the ground."

The bearded man sneered, "A small sect established by an overseas person dares to try and seize so many resources? They're really overestimating themselves."

"But right now, seeing his Yuansheng Sect disciples lying down one by one, I feel quite relieved."

The sinister man chuckled softly.

"Not only their disciples will lie down, but later I'll make their sect leader lie down too."

The bearded man looked at Xin Andao from afar.

"Oh? What, you're going to take action against him yourself?"

The sinister man sensed the meaning behind the bearded man's words.

"It's bad to attack them off the court, but if you beat them on the court, it's no big deal."

The bearded man said, "If we can 'accidentally' kill him on the spot, it will be much easier to divide the Azure-Patterned Cold Iron Ore later."
