Who Do You Think You Are, Deciding for Me?

Zhang Yang was actually reluctant to establish the "life-or-death contract" rule, because it would lead the arena competition down another cruel path.

However, the Azure Cloud Sect simply cannot afford to have too many instances of Buxu.

To absolutely avoid such a situation, Azure Cloud Master would have to be the referee.

Let's not even talk about whether it's reasonable for a sect leader to act as a referee; how can Azure Cloud Master cultivate if he's wasting all his energy on this?

Zhang Yang had no choice but to add this clause.

He was well aware that adding this rule would inevitably lead to bloodshed in the arena!

It might belong to a disciple of another sect, a Rogue Cultivator, or more likely, a disciple of the Azure Cloud Sect.

But since things had come to this, there was nothing he could do.

Go with the flow.

For the disciples of the Azure Cloud Sect, this more brutal "training" may unleash even greater potential.

Upon hearing Zhang Yang's announcement, everyone below the arena turned serious.

They all knew very well that the upcoming matches would probably not be so simple.

Similarly, the rewards from the Azure Cloud Sect will probably not be so easy to obtain.

Instantly, many people's desire to take on the challenge diminished considerably.

Furthermore, we must reduce our attempts to probe the Azure Cloud Sect in the future.

A situation like Buxu would be an unbearable loss for any sect.

On the arena, Zhang Yang turned to the many Azure Cloud Sect disciples and said, "The rewards for the arena competition are the same for the Azure Cloud Sect disciples. I hope Azure Cloud Sect disciples will actively sign up. Of course, as you all heard, once you step onto the stage to challenge, you must be prepared for injury and death."

After saying that, he returned to the Azure Cloud Sect.

The spies from other sects, having gathered the information, returned to their respective sects to report.

In particular, the situation of Buxu at One-Guard Monastery Temple must be reported to the sect immediately.

After the spies left, Zhang Changshan saw that the atmosphere had cooled down, so he immediately ordered two Azure Cloud Sect disciples to go up on stage again for another sparring match.

Anyway, they also need to practice in combat.

Of course, their vacation is only ten days long, and the rest of the time can only be handled by the Azure Cloud Sect disciples who have not yet received training.

Upon hearing the scout's report, the Sage Master of Langya Sacred Land sighed deeply and said, "I knew long ago that Situ Mingyue was no ordinary person... My son is truly a useless piece of trash; he can't even deceive a woman. Otherwise, our Langya Sacred Land would surely have another True Immortal Realm!"

He genuinely felt some regret.

Because he had personally witnessed Situ Mingyue; she displayed the potential of Immortal Seed being even at the Primordial Spirit Realm —what a promising seedling!

Unfortunately, despite his shameful attempts to persuade the Azure Cloud Sect to let his son marry her several times, they refused!

The Sage Master actually wanted to send a young disciple from the Langya Sacred Land to pursue Situ Mingyue, hoping there might be an opportunity. However, he quickly remembered what Zhang Yang had said and immediately abandoned the idea.

The Azure Cloud Sect doesn't even think much of Kong Xiuping, so the chances of anyone else going there are slim.

If those people use any means to damage our relationship, that would be an even worse course of action.

Most importantly, he really angered the Azure Cloud Sect, causing Zhang Yang to start scheming, and who knows what kind of trap he might set for the Langya Sacred Land.

His only hope now is that Kong Xiuping can capture Situ Mingyue during his time at the Azure Cloud Sect.

When One-Guard Monastery heard that Buxu's State of Mind had been shattered, Han Song Peak Dao Integration Realm, was furious.

"The Azure Cloud Sect deserves an explanation!" Han Song looked at the Abbot with an angry expression. "Abbot, you know Buxu's condition. He's a disciple we've invested a great deal of effort in training, and now he's in this state. We absolutely cannot let this go."

Buxu was his disciple, with astonishing talent, but now he's crippled?

The abbot glanced at Han Song and asked the Nascent Primordial Spirit Realm disciple who had been gathering information, "How is Buxu doing now?"

"When I returned, Junior Brother Buxu was trying to mend his State of Mind," the scout replied.

The abbot pondered for a moment before saying to Yun Song, "Go to Azure Cloud City and bring Buxu back. With you escorting Buxu, there shouldn't be any problem, right?"

"Don't worry, Abbot, there won't be any problems," Yun Song hurriedly replied.

He's at the Peak Dao Integration Realm; anyone who wants to attack him would have to be at the Tribulation Realm.

Although Yun Song agreed, he did not leave.

He was somewhat curious; was the matter of Buxu really just going to be left like this?

Moreover, the abbot did not let him leave, clearly indicating that he had more instructions to give.

The abbot pondered for a moment before continuing to Yun Song, "Go see Cang Song and tell him that if Azure Dragon Monastery has any disciples that it cannot train, they can be sent to One-Guard Monastery!"

"This..."

Yun Song's expression became complicated.

Even though Cang Song has already established its own monastery, why are you still going to invite it...? It's more like you're begging Cang Song.

The other people also had mixed feelings, and some even showed expressions of resentment.

However, no one dared to refute it.

Late Tribulation Realm, sword cultivator, currently ranked number one on the Peak Rankings!

The abbot's prestige is now too high.

Of course, this matter doesn't involve my own interests, and since Cang Song hasn't made a decision yet, there's nothing to object to.

"Alright, go ahead!" The abbot gestured to Yun Song he could depart.

Han Song hurriedly asked, "Master, are we just going to let this go like this?"

"Oh!" The abbot looked at Han Song, "You come along and challenge the Dao Integration Realm expert from the Azure Cloud Sect!"

As you are at the Peak Dao Integration Realm, your cultivation level is indeed higher, so why don't you challenge the sword cultivator Ling Yunzi!

That's fair!

"This..."

Han Song was speechless for a moment, not knowing what to say.

He hoped that the abbot, the number one person in the world, would help his disciple get his revenge.

As Peak Dao Integration Realm, his strength was naturally considerable.

However, Ling Yunzi is a sword cultivator, and sword cultivators are generally recognized as having strong combat power.

He wasn't confident facing a swordsman.

However, if the abbot intervenes, then it's a sure thing.

"Don't you want to go?" the abbot asked. "Since you don't want to go, then Yun Song go by himself. Go quickly and come back quickly!"

"Yes!"

Yun Song immediately got up and left One-Guard Monastery.

"Han Song, stay!" the abbot continued.

The other elders exchanged glances and then left.

Once everyone else was gone, the abbot looked at Han Song and asked calmly, "Was Buxu sent out by you?"

To make a name for oneself?

Struggle for power and profit?

"You still want to make decisions for me and order me into battle?"

Han Song's expression changed drastically, and he shook his head repeatedly. "Master, I absolutely did not instruct you... I only wanted Buxu to save face for our One-Guard Monastery, so I Buxu to challenge the Azure Cloud Sect Primordial Spirit Realm of the Qingyun Sect. Anyway, they don't have many..."

The abbot snorted coldly, interrupting Han Song: "If Buxu cannot recover, your lineage will receive half the resources for the next hundred years!"

Furthermore, if you ever dare to act on my behalf again, you will have to drop everything and go into seclusion for a period of time, and you are not allowed to come out until you reach the Tribulation Realm!

"Yes!" Han Song trembled and hurriedly answered.

"Go and prepare the resources for Buxu's recovery!" the abbot said calmly.

"Yes, I'll take my leave!" Han Song hurriedly turned and left.

The abbot stared at the Han Song until Han Song disappeared, then said indifferently, "Useless!"
