The Strongest Sect of All Times

If it were another person, Liu Kunlong would definitely not have ended up in a pool of his own blood. At most, he would have just been sandbagged a bit. 

But his opponent was Ye Xingchen.

Who was that?

Once, he had been one of the Ten Great Martial Emperors!

In his previous life, not only had he killed people, he’d killed many people — the skeletons of those who fell under Ye Xingchen’s hands could form a mountain. 

With such ruthlessness, he could absolutely kill without batting an eye. 

Remembering how he had been put into a dangerous position by a group of mere savage beasts, and now that a junior was being contemptuous, Ye Xingchen’s anger had changed into killing intent. He lifted the blade to slash down once more. 

“Xingchen.” Jun Changxiao stopped him, saying, “This is but an exchange, there is no need for such extreme actions.”

Ye Xingchen re-collected his murderous aura and threw the blade onto the ground. With a cold snort, he said, “Sect Head, in the future, don’t make me go on stage to deal with this type of trash. Such a waste of time.”

Then, he turned around to take a bathy-bath. 

“He unexpectedly can defeat a Fifth Stage Martial Disciple, Junior Brother Ye is so awesome!” the disciples exclaimed. 

Su Xiaomo was also amazed. “Junior Brother’s growth is so quick?”

Jun Changxiao tapped his chin. “There seemed to be an aura of some sort a moment ago.”

Due to proximity, Jun Changxiao actually caught the tyrannical aura Ye Xingchen released a moment ago. Although it was but for a moment, he was able to feel the sense of fear. 

The system said, [That was the force of a soul.]

“Soul force?”

[When a martial artist’s soul strength is great, they can form a soul force to shock other’s minds.]

Jun Changxiao said, “You mean that Xingchen erupted with a soul force to shock Liu Kunlong’s mind a moment ago, which is why the kid dropped his blade?”

[Correct], the system said. 

Looking at the figure gradually leaving, Jun Changxiao thought, This disciple of mine is not so simple.

[Not at all], agreed the system. 

…

Liu Kunlong originally could contest with Ye Xingchen, but was disrupted by the Tyrant King’s Aura and ended up laying in a puddle of blood. 

It wasn’t that he wasn’t strong, but that his opponent was too evil. 

Song Cai collected his condensed spirit energy, his vision filled with anger. 

A moment ago, if Ye Xingchen dared to cut down, he would definitely have made a move. After all, Liu Kunlong was regarded as an important inner disciple of the Star Cloud Sect. 

Jun Changxiao said, “Elder Song, four exchanges. Your Star Cloud Sect has lost four, is there a need to continue?”

These words were wounding, so wounding that Song Cai felt a stabbing pain in his heart.

With a deep voice he said, “Continue!”

If he gave up now, it would be 4:0. But since he continued to keep fighting, the score would be 5:0. 

Because the next one on stage was Lu Qianqian. 

This was an icy beauty who didn’t look very aggressive. But she had just stepped onto the stage when she released a tsunami of spirit power, frightening the Star Cloud Sect disciple and causing him to directly collapse. 

Bang! Bang!

The spirit power then formed a small fist, punching the disciple’s chest in a frenzy. Finally, beaten until he coughed blood, the Star Cloud Sect fainted with honor. 

Even the Ironbone Sect disciples felt the corners of their mouths twitch. 

It turns out that our beautiful and angel-like Senior Sister Lu is actually fiercer than Ye Xingchen!

Long Ziyang, Yang Yuhua, and the other new disciples secretly came to a conclusion: Senior Sister Lu is the most ferocious person in the sect, she cannot ever be provoked!

[Ding! Disciples tyrannically beat the Star Cloud Sect disciples 5/5]

[Ding! Side mission complete. The host has obtained 50 contribution points.]

[Ding! Sect Contribution: 230/500.]

Feels good!

Jun Changxiao stood up, smiling and clasping his hands in a slight bow. “Elder Song, you let us win!”

Song Cai’s entire face was dark. 

On his way here, he had hit his chest and solemnly guaranteed Qin Haoran that he could suppress the Ironbone Sect’s arrogance. But the result… all five matches were total defeats. He’d gotten the pants beaten off of him!

If this news ever got out, that would definitely be disgraceful!

“Elder Song.” Jun Changxiao said, “It seems that your expression is quite ugly, as if you are not convinced of your loss. How about you and I compare notes?”

Song Cai was startled. 

He found the disciples’ rout unable to bear and was also thinking of asking this guy to compare notes, but didn’t expect that the other would take the initiative. 

Very good, super good!

Song Cai clasped his hands. “Since Sect Head Jun has suggested it, this Song will respectfully accept.”

Saying so, he stepped onto the stage and walked to the center. On the way, he fed Liu Kunlong a healing pill and dragged him off stage. 

Jun Changxiao walked over and thought, What’s his strength?

[About 30,000], the system answered. 

“Just 30,000?” Jun Changxiao was disdainful. 

Although he was only an Eighth Stage Martial Apprentice right now, his strength had long since surpassed 20,000 jin. 

The system explained, [This elder’s aptitude is just average, just a normal First Stage Martial Master. The host, who has experienced aptitude transformation and muscle tempering, naturally is no longer an ordinary person.]

“Oh, that makes sense,” Jun Changxiao hummed.

It wasn’t just him. 

The Ironbone disciples, who had practiced the Tendon Altering Sutra, taken the Body Reconstructing Pill, and experienced the tempering of the Muscle Molding Room, were far stronger and more combat efficient than the average cultivator. 

When their spirit root and cultivation were upgraded, their strength… Just thinking about it made people’s blood boil and tremble. 

…

“Sect Head is going to make a move!”

When Jun Changxiao walked to the center of the stage, the Ironbone Sect disciples immediately started to discuss. After all, the last time the sect leader had acted was when he beat Ma Yongning.

“The Star Cloud Sect’s elder is a Martial Master, can Sect Head win?” a new disciple whispered. 

“Nonsense, of course he will win!”

The disciples who had entered the sect early were 100%, unconditionally trusting of Jun Changxiao. 

“Sect Head’s certain victory, Sect Head’s certain victory!” Liu Wanshi raised a small fist to shout. 

Soon, all the Ironbone Sect disciples were moved, shouting in one voice, cheering for their sect leader. 

“Hmph.” Song Cai made a low snort, but he was still humble on the surface. “Sect Head Jun, will we compare with weapons or with our fists?”

“Fists,” Jun Changxiao said, 

Song Cai nodded, “That works.”

As he said so, thick spirit power condensed in his palms, his imposing manner not bad. 

In Falling Star Continent, Martial Apprentice was considered the Spirit Condensing Phase, meaning to condense spirit power and create the cyclone in the dantian. 

Martial Master was considered the Spirit Controlling Phase, because martial artists of this level were far more adept at the utilization and absorption of spirit power. 

Although Song Cai was quite mediocre, he was still a true Martial Master. The spiritual energy condensed within his palms was incomparable to that of a Martial Apprentice. 

Boy. 

Just wait until the match starts. Before your disciples, I will beat you at the maximum speed, saving some face for my Star Cloud Sect. 

Song Cai said, “Sect Head Jun, can we begin?”

“We can begin,” nodded Jun Changxiao. 

Shua!

Song Cai rushed forward, his right hand clenched into a fist. Spiritual energy from his cyclone poured into the fist, presenting visible ripples of qi. 

So anxious. Jun Changxiao smiled lightly, lifting his right palm to cut towards the void. “I Cut!”

Xiu—

A crescent moon shaped beam of light exploded forth. 

Song Cai raised an eyebrow, his right fist whistling through the air to directly punch that beam of light. Since the beam of light immediately scattered, his eyes were filled with disdain. 

However, when he glanced at Jun Changxiao, he actually found that the guy’s left and right hands seemed to have changed into two kitchen knives. Jun Changxiao continuously cut down with his hands, as if he was mincing meat and dicing vegetables to make dumpling stuffing. 

“I Cut, I Cut, I Cut Cut Cut!”

Xiu, xiu, xiu, xiu!

Shortly, dozens of beams of light shot forward from different angles, exploding in arcs. 

“This…” Li Qingyang felt his mouth twitch. Sect Head using I Cut to this degree is a little scary!

Of course it was. 

Song Cai, who had been a little disdainful, saw the densely packed and numerous beams of light rushing towards him at cunning angles and his expression became splendid. 

Hide! Dodge! Avoid!

That was the only thought in his heart, but he could not dodge. He could only quickly condense some spiritual energy, shielding himself from the unceasing barrage of light beams. 

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Song Cai was very strong, completely blocking the beams of light. 

“I Cut, I Cut, I Cut Cut Cut!”

As if he had found some sort of cheat, Sect Head Jun stood in the same place, shaking his hips side to side while waving his hand-blades, crescent-shaped arcs of light constantly blasting out with a xiu xiu.

Facing this endless bombardment, even with his Martial Master cultivation, Elder Song could only passively defend. But the quantity was too great and he eventually could not keep up, as numerous arcs of light unfortunately met with different parts of his body. 

Bang! Bang! Bang!

After five minutes. 

Jun Changxiao panted as he stood on the stage. 

Although the consumption of the I Cut was not great, he could not continuously display it for that long — about 70-80% of the cyclone in his dantian had been consumed. 

Song Cai stood with his legs trembling outside of the arena. Unable to support his body weight, he collapsed onto the floor. 

[Ding! Defeat Star Cloud Sect Seventh Elder Song Cai 1/1 {Elite Mission}]

[Ding! Side mission completed. The host has obtained 100 contribution points.]

[Ding! Sect Contribution: 330/500.]

Li Qingyang and the other disciples were filled with reverence as they looked at the sect head, hearts filled with only one thought: fucking awesome!
