Gao Yuanyuan walked and spoke: "The Kunlun Sword Tournant is a grand event for the Three Sects and Six Gates, along with the Ten Great Families of the Ancient Martial World. It was initially initiated by Kunlun Void, one of the Top Three Sects, and has now reached its ninth session."
"The initial purpose of launching this Kunlun Sword Tournant was to gather righteous people from all over to face national crises together. Later, when New Yan Country was established, the leadership reached a basic consensus with the Ancient Martial World, leading to a division between the martial world and secular society, without interference."
"After that, the Three Sects and Six Gates and the Ten Great Families beca their own realms. Although part of the Ancient Martial World, they were almost separated due to geographical reasons."
"To facilitate communication, the original Kunlun Sword Tournant was continued. The Three Sects and Six Gates along with the Ten Great Families agreed to gather at Kunlun every ten years to hold a sword tournant for exchange."
"This Sword Tournant is both an opportunity for disciples of various sects and families to communicate and a platform for sects and families to showcase their strength, competing against each other."
Oh.
Li Feng uttered an oh, sowhat understanding: "Senior Sister, since it's a platform for showcasing strength, could it be that this Sword Tournant is also an event for the major sects and families to rank and divide benefits?"
Gao Yuanyuan glanced at Li Feng.
"If you put it that way, it's not incorrect."
"The Kunlun Sword Tournant is not just an event for exchange. It lets everyone see the strength of each other, facilitating an understanding among families, because the number of disciples and the strength of power cannot be faked."
"If you're strong, naturally your voice has more weight."
"Take our Divine Sword Manor, for example. The Lin Family could sit firmly at the top of the Ten Great Families because in the previous sessions of the Kunlun Sword Tournant, we surpassed everyone else. Other than Kunlun Void, which can sowhat suppress us, the other sects and families were almost crushed by us."
"Of course, besides these advantages in discourse power, the Sword Tournant also offers opportunities."
"Hmm?"
"Opportunities?" Li Feng looked at Gao Yuanyuan curiously.
Gao Yuanyuan said: "The land of Kunlun is located in the far Northwest, sparsely populated. Yet Kunlun Void has always been a place for cultivating immortality, and nowadays it hides so unknown secrets."
"Senior Sister, what secrets?"
"I don't know the specifics, as those who have been there keep their mouths shut. But I heard from our master that those who entered Kunlun Void and ca out alive received great opportunities."
"For instance, the Lin Family's Refining God Technique was an opportunity our ancestors acquired from Kunlun Void, which is the foundation of our family's growth."
"It is said that Kunlun Void was left by cultivators, tracing back to ancient immortality, though these are hearsay."
Gao Yuanyuan shook her head. In secular society, tales of cultivating immortality and seeking the Dao are often regarded as myth stories or even internet novels.
But in the Ancient Martial World, the pursuit of truth and seeking the Dao is a firm belief, and even lifelong ambition is to attain immortality.
While talking, the two arrived at Li Feng's small courtyard. After recovering a bit, Li Feng moved out of Gao Yuanyuan's boudoir, although his courtyard was not far.
"Senior Sister, tell more about this Sword Tournant."
Gao Yuanyuan was not impatient, as she too was very curious when she first heard about the Sword Tournant.
"Well, I already ntioned that this Sword Tournant is a platform to showcase strength where people from the Three Sects, Six Gates, and Ten Great Families send representatives. It's a crucial exchange event; daily you may not co into contact with other sects or even families, but this ti you can et them all."
"From our Divine Sword Manor, those chosen to go will naturally be our elite. Among them, the closed-door disciples of the elders are guaranteed a spot, and besides that, the inner sect will select so outstanding disciples to accompany them."
"Since the Sword Tournant is held every ten years, everyone usually gets a chance, aning those who have gone once cannot go again. This ans we can send about ten to twenty people in the end."
"But according to the Tournant's regulations, each power sends ten people to the stage for competitions. Besides that, there's free sparring without restrictions."
"Additionally, during the Sword Tournant, sects and families will exchange resources and even hold auctions."
"Lastly, as I ntioned, there's Kunlun Void. Entering Kunlun Void has a quota limit, with only a hundred allowed each session."
"To increase the number entering, you have to seize quotas. The competitions decide eighty percent of the quota allocation, while twenty percent are fixed quotas given to the Three Sects, Six Gates, and Ten Great Families, one for each power."
"This Kunlun Sword Tournant is always held in mid-August, the warst ti for Kunlun, so it's only a few days away."
"When you were recuperating, the inner sect had already started competing for quotas. I initially thought you wouldn't have the chance this ti, but our master suddenly brought it up."
"However, your body?"
Li Feng listened attentively to Gao Yuanyuan's concern, saying: "Senior Sister, I'm recovering quickly, I shouldn't cause any delay."
"Alright, but don't be too careless. Overall, being able to go is a good thing; broadening your horizons is best."
After chatting for a bit longer, Gao Yuanyuan stood up to leave, and only after escorting her from the courtyard did Li Feng return to his room.
The issue with Lu Ziyue seems to have been temporarily resolved, just in ti for this chance to leave Divine Sword Manor, and as for this Kunlun Sword Tournant, I can go and have so fun.
"Grandfather, that Bai Yutang definitely has issues."
Lin Ao, following Third Elder outside, gritted his teeth and swore.
"Previously, Bai Yutang was just a pretty face. When he saw , it wasn't exactly like a mouse seeing a cat, but close enough. Whenever I bullied him, he dared not speak up, and if Lu Ziyue hadn't stood up for him several tis, he was nothing but a coward."
Lin Ao inherently looked down on Bai Yutang, having bullied him more than once or twice. If Bai Yutang had hidden his strength, would he have always kept it hidden?
"Enough."
Third Elder interrupted Lin Ao.
"Do you know what's your most foolish mistake?"
"Grandfather?"
Lin Ao looked up at his grandfather.
Third Elder snorted coldly: "Not even knowing where you went wrong. Whether Lu Ziyue is dead or alive, it's none of your business. You spread rumors and involve Bai Yutang in his disappearance."
"If you had real evidence, that'd be one thing. But all based on your few guesses, whom do you think you can convince?"
"On the contrary, what you're doing is just adding unnecessary complexity. Not only did you fail to harm Bai Yutang, but you also failed to gain favor with the Lu Family. Now, you are the one who's neither here nor there."
"You can be incompetent, but you must not be foolish."
"You'll be confined at ho for now and shouldn't go out."
Third Elder glanced at Lin Ao.
"Grandfather."
Lin Xiong stepped forward.
Third Elder saw Lin Xiong's stern face and smiled slightly, leaving Lin Ao and calling Lin Xiong along.
"My good grandson, I've secured a quota for you for this Kunlun Sword Tournant. Breaking through at this ti hasn't let our branch fall into having no capable hands."
"This Kunlun Sword Tournant, you must bring honor to our branch."
"Yes, grandfather."
"Is Bai Yutang also going?"
Lin Xiong suddenly asked.
