Dongfang Bai's Decision

"So this is the Supreme Simplicity Sect? The disciples' cultivation levels are all too weak!"

Ouyang Xin'er Supreme Yin Sect shook her head repeatedly. This was her first time visiting an affiliated force, and she now realized how weak the disciples of the affiliated forces were. The miscellaneous disciples of the Supreme Yin Sect at headquarters were all Great Grandmaster, the outer disciples were generally at the Martial Saint Realm, and the inner disciple were all at the Golden Core True Person Realm.

She was just an inner disciple, with no status in the sect, yet she hadn't even encountered a Great Grandmaster here. Could such a weak sect really have any outstanding geniuses?

A short while later, Dongfang Bai arrived. He also informed Xu Xi and the previous sect leader, Huang Qin. Huang Qin had now broken through to the Great Grandmaster Realm, but had only recently achieved Great Grandmaster and was barely stabilizing her realm.

"Three Great Grandmaster, not bad."

Ouyang Xin'er also knew that the Spiritual Qi in the Chu Kingdom was thin and resources were scarce, so it was undoubtedly remarkable that three Great Grandmaster could be born there.

"This is my identity token, Ouyang Xin'er, inner disciple the Supreme Yin Sect."

Ouyang Xin'er displayed her identity token, thus revealing her identity.

Xu Xi, Huang Qin, and Dongfang Bai examined the token, confirmed it was genuine, and then respectfully bowed, saying, "Greetings, Envoy of the Supreme Sect."

"Which one is the sect leader?" Ouyang Xin'er asked.

Dongfang Bai stepped forward, cupped his hands, and said, "Envoy of the Supreme Sect, I am Dongfang Bai, the Sect Master of the Supreme Simplicity Sect."

"You're quite Great Grandmaster Realm at such a young age." Ouyang Xin'er carefully examined Dongfang Bai, finding Dongfang Bai to be very young, but unable to discern his exact age.

Soon, Ouyang Xin'er learned the identities of Huang Qin and Xu Xi. These two were both quite old, and could certainly not be called geniuses, but she was not going to deny them a chance. In this world, there was no shortage of those monstrous talents who had a sudden enlightenment and whose lifespans were not long, and who broke through several major realms one after another.

If Huang Qin and Xu Xi are only lacking resources and have low cultivation levels, but are extremely talented in other aspects, then they can still be brought into the Supreme Yin Sect and properly nurtured. If they break through one or two major realms, their lifespan will increase, and their potential will no longer be a problem.

"By order of our Supreme Yin Sect Master, we are conducting assessments of our subordinate forces. If any disciples show promising potential, they can be recruited into the Supreme Yin Sect ahead of time and nurtured to grow," Ouyang Xin'er said.

Xu Xi and Huang Qin knew they had no hope, but Dongfang Bai definitely had a chance. If Dongfang Bai entered the Supreme Yin Sect, he would definitely become Golden Core True Person in the future, and might even break through to a higher realm. With a Supreme Simplicity Sect help, he could make the Supreme Simplicity Sect rise to prominence!

"I'm going to test your abilities. Don't say I didn't give you a chance. Who wants to go first?"

After Ouyang Xin'er finished speaking, she looked at the three of them.

"I'll go first."

Xu Xi stepped forward and asked Ouyang Xin'er, "Envoy of the Supreme Sect, please enlighten me."

"I will suppress my cultivation to the Great Grandmaster First Stage. Make your move." Ouyang Xin'er didn't even take out her Law Treasure, as if she hadn't made any preparations. She just stood there quietly, yet she put immense pressure on Xu Xi.

Xu Xi only used her Law Treasure sword and unleashed a Swordsmanship from the Supreme Simplicity Sect to attack Ouyang Xin'er. Her Movement Method were also very fast, but her attacks failed to even touch a single hem of Ouyang Xin'er's clothes.

After Xu Xi did not display any further techniques, Ouyang Xin'er secretly shook her head, and then pointed her sword finger, which contained a trace of Sword Qi, at Xu Xi's sword.

Boom!

Xu Xi's body, along with the sword in his hand, was blasted away. He could no longer hold onto the Law Treasure sword, which fell to the ground some distance away.

Seeing that she had been defeated so easily, and that Ouyang Xin'er hadn't even mobilized much of her power, not even reaching the level of a normal Great Grandmaster martial artist, Xu Xi realized that Ouyang Xin'er had seized upon her weak point and defeated her in one strike.

"The envoy from the Upper Sect is impressive."

Xu Xi knew that his performance was terrible, and he was also very old with little time left to live, so he was definitely not qualified to enter the Supreme Yin Sect.

Who's next?

Ouyang Xin'er asked again.

Huang Qin stepped forward and challenged him, but she still didn't show much strength and was defeated in one move.

Seeing that the two Great Grandmaster of the Supreme Simplicity Sect were not very skilled, having not even mastered a single perfect Heaven-level martial art, nor any Divine Ability Technique, and with such poor combat experience, she was quite disappointed. If Dongfang Bai were also so incompetent, she would at most ask if the Supreme Simplicity Sect had any powerful special physiques. If not, she would leave.

Following Huang Qin, Dongfang Bai stepped forward, drew a sword, and bowed to Ouyang Xin'er, saying, "Envoy of the Upper Sect, please enlighten me."

"Make your move!"

Ouyang Xin'er had no hope for Dongfang Bai's abilities.

However, Dongfang Bai directly unleashed the Demonic Shadow Clone Technique, a low-level Movement Method that she had already mastered to perfection. Combined with the unique nature of the Yin-Yang Devil Body Divine Art and her mastery of the technique, she was able to unleash its power comparable to a high-level martial art.

"Not Movement Method." Ouyang Xin'er commented.

Dongfang Bai then used the Supreme Yin Divine Sword Divine Ability Technique. He mainly cultivated the Black-Yellow Sect's Demonic Shadow Ten Arms Technique Divine Ability Technique, but he also practiced the Supreme Yin Divine Sword. Although it didn't take much time, he still managed to master it.

"Supreme Yin Divine Sword!"

Ouyang Xin'er used the power of the Great Grandmaster First Stage to fight back, but as soon as she touched him, her body was blasted away, and she had to use more power to stabilize herself.

"Your strength far surpasses that of Early Great Grandmaster stages, and even surpasses that of many Peak Great Grandmaster. Have you cultivated a powerful Body Refining technique?" Ouyang Xin'er exclaimed in shock.

"Reporting to the envoy from the upper sect, I have cultivated various Body Refining techniques, and coupled with my special physique, my physical strength is quite good," Dongfang Bai explained.

"Very well, attack me with all your might!"

Ouyang Xin'er started to get serious, and then Dongfang Bai also showed his strength. Apart from the Demonic Shadow Ten Arms Technique, the Ten Shadow Devil Needles, and the True Devil Body Refining Technique which he did not fully activate, he showed everything he could. However, Ouyang Xin'er also unleashed a cultivation level that surpassed Dongfang Bai's, otherwise she would not have been able to suppress Dongfang Bai.

Half an hour later, Ouyang Xin'er stopped. "That's enough."

Dongfang Bai also stopped attacking, put away his Law Treasure sword, and silently recovered his True Qi.

"Dongfang Bai, you are truly remarkable and qualified to join the Supreme Yin Sect as an outer disciple. Would you be willing to join the Supreme Yin Sect?" Ouyang Xin'er invited.

"Dongfang Bai, say yes quickly."

Xu Xi and Huang Qin quickly tugged at Dongfang Bai. This was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. If he missed it, Dongfang Bai would need to break through to the Golden Core True Person Realm before he could join the Supreme Yin Sect.

"I do."

Dongfang Bai had long ago decided to infiltrate the Supreme Yin Sect to provide more intelligence for the sect and his master, and to contribute to the sect's development. Moreover, by joining the Supreme Yin Sect, he could obtain more resources and his cultivation level would increase dramatically.

Of course, there was a risk in him joining the Supreme Yin Sect: if his identity as a man were discovered, the Supreme Yin Sect could easily crush him.

"For a short period of time, one must maintain the state of Yin Body in places where there are people, and then release the state of Yin Body and restore True Qi when there are no people around."

Dongfang Bai felt that he was only becoming an outer disciple of the Supreme Yin Sect and was not worthy of being valued by the Supreme Yin Sect's higher-ups. He estimated that he would not even have the opportunity to meet the Supreme Yin Sect's higher-ups. The risk was not great, but the reward was huge.

"Good."

Ouyang Xin'er was in a good mood. She had brought Dongfang Bai back, and her sect mission would be completed then, earning her some sect points.
