Chapter 210: Sect Martial Arena
Yin Yun took both Chen Tian and Su Bingxin on a tour of the first floor. Several outer disciples were busy selecting or practicing new techniques. Some gazes fixated on them, particularly Yin Yun and Su Bingxin, as both women were exceptional beauties. Chen Tian, on the other hand, received a fleeting glance before attention quickly diverted elsewhere.
As they ventured deeper into the first floor, Yin Yun guided Chen Tian and Su Bingxin to an area where various cultivation books and scrolls were stored.
"Here are the resources to enhance your cultivation skills further. When you enter the sect, every disciple is granted 100 points, sufficient to purchase a standard cultivation technique," Yin Yun explained, gesturing towards shelves brimming with ancient texts.
"Since neither of you has cultivated a high-level technique, I recommend selecting one that suits your needs," Yin Yun encouraged them.
"No, I don't require a new cultivation technique; I already have one," Chen Tian responded, shaking his head.
"Me too," Su Bingxin nodded in agreement.
"But the techniques here are more advanced and potent than what you currently possess," Yin Yun pointed out. "Consider upgrading to a higher-level technique to enhance your cultivation further." Chen Tian and Su Bingxin exchanged glances but declined Yin Yun's offer.
"Sigh..."
Resigned to their decision, Yin Yun sighed in disappointment. She respected their choices but couldn't help feeling they were passing up an excellent opportunity to improve their cultivation.
Nevertheless, she understood that everyone had their unique paths to follow, and perhaps Chen Tian and Su Bingxin had different plans for their growth.
With a heavy heart, Yin Yun decided to continue their exploration inside the library. They couldn't ascend to the second floor, as only inner disciples were allowed, and even with Yin Yun's status as a Core disciple, she couldn't take Chen Tian and Su Bingxin with her.
After perusing countless books and manuscripts, they departed the library.
Chen Tian had spotted numerous elemental battle skills that would benefit his current state, but he decided to revisit them later. He still possessed only two elemental crystals out of the eleven; he had a long journey ahead to complete them.
Yin Yun led them to various places within the sect, including the Sect pavilion and the sect square, where numerous disciples were enjoying themselves. Some disciples had established stores within the sect where fellow disciples could purchase various items and resources.
Chen Tian and Su Bingxin were particularly intrigued and decided to explore the stores to see what items and resources they could find. The currency within the sect was in points rather than Spirit Stones.
Yin Yun continued to acquaint them with the sect's various aspects and their surroundings as they strolled through the sect plaza. Chen Tian couldn't help but notice a substantial crowd gathered in a circle.
"Hmm? What's happening over there?" Chen Tian inquired, piqued by his curiosity.
Yin Yun, equally intrigued, suggested that they find out.
As they neared the crowd, they heard shouts and the clash of weapons. It became apparent that a fight was underway.
Pushing their way through the crowd, they eventually reached the center of the commotion.
"A new challenge! How many has it been this month?" one disciple exclaimed to his companions.
"Hu Jianyu knows how to keep things exciting," another disciple replied with a grin.
"If he continues to defeat every second-rank outer disciple who comes his way, he might earn a promotion to a first-rank outer discipline!"
"No, I doubt it. Every first-rank outer discipline is at least in the Foundation Establishment Realm. Hu Jianyu is still in the Meridian Opening 9th Stage; he has a minor realm to traverse before attempting to enter Foundation Establishment."
"But it's still impressive that he can vanquish every second-rank outer disciple. It demonstrates his immense strength. I wager he's the most formidable Meridian Opening Cultivator in the sect."
Chen Tian, Su Bingxin, and Yin Yun reached the center of the group, where a poster was displayed. They examined the poster.
[Disciple Hu Jianyu (Rank: 17,899) vs. Disciple Yin Huiliang (Rank: 18,000)]
The poster even included the time of the upcoming match.
"Do they organize this sort of thing in the sect?" Su Bingxin couldn't help but wonder.
"Yes, they do," Yin Yun replied, her gaze fixed on the poster. "It's a way for the sect to showcase the talents and progress of their disciples, as well as an excellent means of accumulating points and recognition for the sect."
"Points?" Su Bingxin asked, her brows furrowing in confusion.
"Do they earn points by fighting?"
Yin Yun smiled and explained, "In our sect, disciples earn points based on their performance, such as completing missions obtained in the Sect pavilion.
Other methods include participating in sect competitions, fulfilling tasks assigned by their elders, and challenging other disciples to duels.
Each victory earns them points. The minimum requirement to participate in a duel is 100 points, so it's crucial for disciples not to squander their points on unnecessary challenges. Hu Jianyu is probably low on points or is testing his strength against other disciplines."
"That's a great way to gauge one's own progress and enhance their skills," Chen Tian remarked, nodding in agreement.
"Would you like to watch the fight?" Yin Yun asked Chen Tian and Su Bingxin.
"I'd love to see how skilled the sect's disciples are," Su Bingxin replied with curiosity.
Chen Tian also expressed interest in witnessing the duel, and Su Bingxin was eager to observe the various techniques and strategies employed by the sect's cultivators.
With that, Yin Yun led the group to the arena where the battle was unfolding.
As they drew nearer, the sounds of shouts and cheers grew louder, creating an atmosphere charged with excitement and anticipation.
"It's begun. Let's go," Yin Yun said, leading the group into the bustling arena.
The sight before them was awe-inspiring. The arena was filled with disciplines who came to watch or participate in a battle.
The Sect Martial Arena was big, with many big stages that could hold a fight between cultivators.
