Saint Sovereign of Nine Heavens

To be targeted by a Spirit Accumulation Stage Ranker, Chen Yu naturally would not feel happy about it. However, if it was just making things difficult for him, Chen Yu really did not care. However, since that Zhu Jun dared to do something insidious, he obviously wouldn't stop after making things difficult for him!    

"How much authority does a deacon have?" Ye Qing asked.    

"It's not really that big of a deal, they don't have the authority to directly command Outer Sect disciples. However, just by missing a few contribution points, it will be enough for many Outer Sect disciples to do things for them! " Feng Yang said: "In other words, as long as Zhu Jun says it, many Outer Sect disciples will fight to find trouble with Junior Brother Chen!"    

"Didn't the sect rules prohibit disciples from fighting?" Ye Qing said in confusion.    

Feng Yang laughed as he shook his head, "Sect rules allow martial arts spars, and fighting in the name of sparring is allowed. Even if you refuse the kung fu competition, there are still ways to provoke you. Furthermore, even though the Law Enforcement Hall is generally impartial, when punishing both sides, it doesn't seem that it's too strange for a little bias to appear! "    

Chen Yu's explanation did not surprise Feng Yang at all.    

In fact, the rules were always set for the weak. No matter how strict or fair the rules were, there would always be a loophole. There was no absolute fairness in this world.    

"How much does Senior Feng know about Punishment Tower?" Since he mentioned about the battle, Chen Yu would naturally ask about the Punishment Tower.    

"The Punishment Tower is actually an underground tower located north of Heaven Climbing Peak inside the Earth Fire Cave!" Feng Yang saw Chen Yu ask this question and was slightly startled. He looked meaningfully at Chen Yu and said: "It was completed a thousand years ago by an expert from the sect. There are seven levels in total and different Spiritual Arrays are arranged from top to bottom. The first floor at the top has a wooden puppet formation. When disciples that are punished enter this array, they are constantly attacked by a large number of wooden puppets, and if they cannot withstand it, they will be covered in injuries! "    

"The second level is called the 'Wind Punishment Formation'. Anyone who enters this place will have to endure the pain of being cut by the wind blades!"    

"The third level is the Sand Spirit Sentinel, the fourth level is the Water Death Formation, and the fifth and seventh levels are the Fire Execution Array!"    

"Although the first four levels are hard to deal with, as long as my willpower is strong, I can still hold on. Especially the seventh floor at the very bottom. It is said that there has never been a record of a Outer Sect disciple coming out alive after receiving punishment! "    

Chen Yu couldn't help but frown when he heard that.    

Being beaten up passively had never been Chen Yu's style, so Chen Yu reckoned that he would definitely violate the sect rules in the future, and enter the Punishment Tower s to be punished.    

But if the Punishment Tower was so terrifying, Chen Yu really didn't know if he could handle it.    

"Woosh woosh." Right at this moment, a dozen or so figures swiftly rushed down from the Heaven Climbing Peak.    

"The head is here!"    

"Disperse, all non-new disciples, move to the side!" Zhu Jun and the other disciples immediately started to drive the unrelated old Outer Sect disciples away to maintain order.    

Those non-new disciples also did not dare to be negligent and they all withdrew.    

"I have to stay aside!" Feng Yang nodded to Ye Qing and Chen Yu before hurriedly retreating.    

"Dragon Diagram?" Chen Yu lowered his voice and asked Ye Qing.    

Ye Qing hesitated for a moment before lightly nodding.    

In just two sentences, everyone from the Heaven Climbing Peak had arrived. The leader was dressed in a purple flying magic robe, and his figure was slender without a hint of imposing manner, like a sun wheel suspended in the sky. Even if he closed his eyes, he could not ignore his existence.    

This person looked to be in his sixties, had a thin face, and a face as calm as a ancient well.    

Behind this person, the three old men also had a deep aura and a powerful pressure. Among them was Elder Ji, who had returned.    

Only, including Elder Ji, the three elders who clearly had the strength of their Profound Dark Stage all seemed to lack any presence at this moment.    

As for the dozen middle-aged martial artists that followed behind Elder Ji, they seemed even more unremarkable.    

"This person should be Ruling Spirit Sect's head, Ling Jianxu!" Ye Qing said in a low voice.    

In the blink of an eye, that purple robed disciple had already arrived in front of them. He did not immediately open his mouth, but swept his gaze across each of the six hundred new disciples' faces. His gaze was as deep as the sea, and wherever his gaze passed, every new disciple couldn't help but calm down.    

"Congratulations to all of you for clearing a path amongst the cruel City Battle Trial and successfully advancing to the Outer Sect disciple!" "Let me introduce myself. I am Ling Jianxu, the Heaven Climbing Peak's Peak Master. In name, all of you can call me Master. However, I will not teach you martial arts, so you don't have to call me that! "    

"To be able to stand out amongst tens of thousands of warriors of the same age, you must be very proud!" Ling Jianxu continued, "In your hometown, each one of you is a martial arts genius with extraordinary talent. But here, you will soon find that most of you are not really geniuses at all. Because, true geniuses are always very few in number. If everyone could be called a genius, then the word "Heaven's Genius" would be a bit too worthless. "    

"So, I want to tell you. The purpose behind Ruling Spirit Sect being split into two sects, is to differentiate between the real geniuses and the mediocre geniuses with no good point! "    

When Ling Jianxu said this, the expressions of many of the new disciples slightly changed.    

"If you think that you can sleep soundly with the identity of a Ruling Spirit Sect disciple, then you will realize how outrageously wrong you are!" Ling Jianxu walked a few steps, and his voice gradually became stern: "There are currently more than four thousand Ruling Spirit Sect disciples. Including you guys, the number is close to five thousand! And every year, the number of inner court disciples would be fixed at 100. Simply put, if you want to become inner sect disciples, you have to surpass fifty so-called "geniuses", who are four hundred or nine hundred people like you, and stand out from the rest of the City Battle Trial! "    

Many of the new disciples couldn't help but reveal shocked expressions, especially those martial artists from the 72 Cities. Their faces began to turn pale.    

"What, are you afraid? If you are afraid, then get out of the Outer Sect as soon as possible, because it's very difficult for trash to survive here! " Ling Jianxu sneered, then said: "Many people feel that since there is no hope of entering the inner sect, it's not bad to stay at Outer Sect. It's a pity that your luck is a little worse than the Outer Sect disciples of the previous sessions. I hereby announce that from today onwards, all Outer Sect disciples must pay a hundred contribution points each month. Those who are unable to pay for three months straight are to be expelled from the sect! "    

Chen Yu couldn't help but be shocked when he heard this.    

At that moment, even though Ling Jianxu had quite a powerful aura and was extremely frightening, the plaza still burst into an uproar.    

An uproar occurred first, it originated from the old Outer Sect disciples who were spectating, then the new disciples were also in an uproar, even most of the new disciples still did not understand what contribution points meant!    

"This is going to be troublesome!" Ye Qing also smiled bitterly and said to Chen Yu.    

This time, Ye Qing brought over a hundred of his followers into the Outer Sect. If every person had to pay one hundred contribution points per month, even the young master of the Linglong Chamber of Commerce would not be able to bear the huge number of contribution points!    

Also, although Chen Yu did not know how much contribution points were worth, with Bloodfire Emperor's experience in Profound Heaven Sect, Chen Yu did not think that a little contribution point was worth that low.    

Chen Yu asked Ye Qing, "What happened?"    

"I don't know!" Ye Qing said with a wry smile, "There was no news about this before." As far as I know, this was not the case for the previous disciples who joined the sect! "    

Seeing the reaction of all the disciples in the square, Ling Jianxu smiled coldly and gestured to an old man in white vestment beside him.    

"Silence!" The white-robed old man shouted coldly.    

A gust of cold, biting cold telepathic thoughts swept through the plaza like a fierce wind, causing the temperature to plummet.    

Under this kind of suppression that was deliberately released by a Profound Dark Stage expert, even if many disciples were to grudge against him, they would still have to stop complaining.    

"I am Zhao Xiyue, the Law Enforcing Elder!" The old man in white said coldly, "Remember the sect rules. If you violate them and fall into my hands, don't blame me for flaying three layers of skin off you!"    

With that said, Zhao Xiyue walked to the side, no longer saying anything.    

All of the new disciples, even those with great backgrounds, were trembling with fear.    

Another of the elders, who was tall and sturdy with an ancient face and an imposing aura like a mountain, smiled and said, "I am the smithing dean, Old Yang Zhen. If any of you have rare darksteel materials, you can go to the smithy to find me.    

Yang Zhen's words seemed very gentle, and it caused many of the new disciples to be stunned for a moment.    

Chen Yu could see that these elders were actually just showing their faces to let the new disciples get to know each other.    

"I am Ji Tong, an elder of the Secrets Hall!" Elder Ji continued as he turned his head to look at Ling Jianxu with an inquiring expression.    

Ling Jianxu waved his hand and said, "Arrange a place for them to stay!"    

"Alright!" Ji Tong nodded and patted the Storage Bag. He took out a register and said: "We will now begin the allocation of residences. Those ranked from one to two hundred, follow Manager Sheng Yun and Deacon Zhu Jun to the Sky Region to settle down! Those ranked 101 to 400, follow Luo Feng Deacon Yang Yi to the Earth Word District to settle down! Those ranked 401 to 600 will follow Pang Su and Meng Long to the Xuan sector to settle down. "Go on!"    

The six disciple deacons shouted.    

"Chen Yu, it seems like we're going to split up!" Ye Qing said to Chen Yu.    

Chen Yu nodded.    

"Take care!" Ye Qing said with a wry smile, "Gongsun and I will come to you later." Be careful of Zhu Jun's obstructions! "    

"Take care!"    

Chen Yu walked towards Su Guan and Jun Che, walking with them in the direction of Shengyun Zhu Jun.    

Zhu Jun's gaze swept past Chen Yu as his mouth raised in a cold arc.
