Somewhere within the inner Sect of Three Absolutes Peak.
Seven old Disciples were confronting seven new Disciples, showing off their might.
Four of the new Disciples were injured, clearly not lightly.
"Are you guys even capable? With supreme Spiritual Roots, is this all you can do?" An old Disciple's tone was filled with disdain.
Li Yuexin angrily retorted, "Are you shameless? You've cultivated for several years longer than us! Bullying us newly initiated Disciples, can't you have some decency?"
"When you go out for training and encounter demonic or evil Cultivators, will they care if you're a new initiate or an old Cultivator? If you can't defeat them, you die! We old Disciples are just letting you experience the cruelty of the cultivation world in advance!"
"You Disciples with supreme Spiritual Roots are ambitious, arrogant, and complacent. We're doing this for your own good!"
The old Disciples spoke one after another.
"Heh!" Meng Changle laughed heartily, "You dare to do this, someone must be pulling the strings behind you, right? Whoever wants to teach us a lesson, just step forward. Why put on such a show?"
The old Disciples exchanged glances.
Then they attacked the seven new Disciples again.
A Disciple with supreme Spiritual Roots who was already injured couldn't take it anymore and shouted, "Twenty-four, you attack too!"
As soon as the words fell, a fish head popped out from the Disciple's sleeve and spat out a water sword!
"A Spirit Beast too?"
That Inner Sect Disciple at the seventh level of Qi Condensation showed surprise, but calmly cast a spell to defend.
How strong could a Spirit Beast at the mid-stage of Qi Condensation be?
"No! This Spiritual Pressure is too strong!"
When the water sword approached, he immediately felt that something was wrong!
He instantly increased his defensive strength and activated the magic artifact on his body!
Rip!
The water sword directly tore apart the golden shield in front of him. That thick golden shield was completely unable to withstand the water sword's attack!
The water sword's momentum did not decrease and directly struck the Disciple's magic robe.
The magic robe flickered uncertainly, dimming within a breath. The water sword pierced through the magic robe, sending the Disciple flying. A large amount of blood was scattered in mid-air, and he instantly fell into a state of severe injury.
"Hiss!"
The other old Disciples all gasped.
An old Disciple came to his senses and immediately flew over, crushing a pill and scattering it on the injured Disciple's wound.
The wound healed quickly, but the Disciple's aura was still weak and listless. Clearly, he had no strength to fight anymore and needed some time to recuperate.
"You!"
The other old Disciples glared at the new Disciple with supreme Spiritual Roots.
"Do you want to kill a fellow Disciple?"
"Your moves are so heavy!"
The new Disciple's face turned red.
Gu You immediately said, "You were being aggressive. Even a cornered rabbit will bite, let alone us newly initiated Disciples who haven't experienced battle. Isn't it normal to not grasp the strength properly? Is it rare for someone to be killed in the cultivation world because their skills are inferior? Since you dared to attack us, you should be prepared for injury or even death!"
"Driving a Spirit Beast to intentionally injure someone, causing severe injury to a fellow Disciple and endangering their life, it seems you will have to take a trip to the Cliff of Confinement!"
An old Disciple immediately sent a message, requesting a Foundation Establishment Elder to come and handle the matter.
Before Gu You could figure out what was happening, a team of black-clothed law enforcement officers arrived in the sky. The captain clearly had a cultivation base at the Early Stage of Foundation Establishment.
"You... what exactly do you want to do?" Xie Yingying also said indignantly. She knew the atmosphere within the Sect. Under normal circumstances, something like this would never happen. There was definitely something fishy about this matter!
The captain of this law enforcement team arrived in mid-air, looked at the fourteen people below, and said, "Take them all away!"
Feeling the anger and frustration of the seven new Disciples, spiritual fish emerged from their sleeves one after another.
They performed the Seven Stars Profound True Leap, their figures leaping in mid-air. Every time they paused, they left a starlight afterimage in mid-air. The seven spiritual fish met in mid-air and formed a Formation, simultaneously spitting out water swords towards the captain.
"Hmm? You dare to resist? The crime is compounded!" The team captain shouted.
The seven water swords in mid-air actually formed a set of Big Dipper Seven Star Sword Array, attacking him in a surrounding manner.
"Wait!"
The captain's face changed, and he immediately attacked, activating his Flying Sword to retaliate.
Unexpectedly, the power of the water swords forming the sword array surged greatly, and they were in a stalemate with his Flying Sword in mid-air.
Gu You and the others were all dumbfounded, not expecting their spiritual fish to cooperate and form the Big Dipper Seven Star Sword Array.
From the leaping steps and the sword array, they all clearly saw Su Yuan's shadow. Obviously, these spiritual fish were not living in the Secret Realm, but were raised by Su Yuan.
However, now was not the time to think about these things.
"Thirteen, come back!" Gu You immediately shouted.
They would at most be confined for a few days, but if they resisted law enforcement, the nature of the matter would be different!
Thirteen glared fiercely at the captain, but still listened to Gu You and landed.
The other spiritual fish did the same.
The law enforcement team captain's face darkened, and he ordered, "Take them all away! Seal their cultivation and keep a close watch!"
Just as the law enforcement officers were about to act.
"Wait!"
A voice echoed through the clouds.
Everyone looked up at the sky in unison.
They saw nine lifelike True Dragons pulling a throne, breaking through the clouds and emerging.
On the throne sat a handsome and elegant young man, holding a silver-white spirit fox in his arms, looking down at the mountain Peak like a celestial being.
The True Dragons roared, and the sound of swords resonated throughout the entire Three Absolutes Peak. All the Cultivators who heard the sound of swords felt as if their heads had been struck, as if they had heard a grand bell, shocking their hearts and minds.
This scene caused all the Disciples' minds to freeze.
The problem was not Su Yuan's astonishing entrance, but that there were array Restrictions on the mountain Peaks of Three Absolutes Peak. Even Spirit Transformation Elders couldn't descend from the top of the mountain so openly and swaggeringly!
Su Yuan was clearly not the Sect master, nor should he be a Spirit Transformation Elder. The only possible identity was the new Peak Master who had been appointed for several months but had never appeared!
Somewhere in a quiet room on Three Absolutes Peak, Xu Guangwen opened his eyes, frowning, and said, "I've only been in seclusion for a few years, how did such a strange Golden Core True Person appear? His aura is at most early Golden Core, why can he be a Peak Master? However, that Spirit Transformation Elder said two days ago that I could compete for this Peak Master position. Since that's the case, I must at least try to compete!"
Gu You said in surprise, "Peak Master! Please uphold justice, Peak Master!"
Su Yuan glanced at everyone, ignoring them, and instead looked at a certain spot on Three Absolutes Peak, saying, "Xu Guangwen, come out. Haven't you been looking for me?"
As soon as these words came out, the entire Three Absolutes Peak was shocked.
Swish swish swish!
Golden Core Elders flew into mid-air one after another.
Some of the Golden Core Elders immediately bowed to Su Yuan.
"Greetings, Peak Master!"
Seeing this, Su Yuan's expression softened slightly and he said, "I was dealing with the matter of the Immortal Seed Valley a few days ago and did not appear on Three Absolutes Peak. Today I officially take up residence on Three Absolutes Peak. If anyone is unconvinced, they can speak up now. Otherwise, after today, anyone who harms the harmony of the Sect will be severely punished without leniency!"
The other Golden Core Elders who were observing from the sidelines exchanged glances. They looked at the Golden Core True Persons who immediately took sides with confusion, unable to figure out the situation for a while.
This was clearly the consequence of not studying. Things that were clearly written in the Sutra Depository were unknown to these Golden Core Elders.
At this moment, Xu Guangwen flew out of the quiet room and arrived in the sky at the same height as Su Yuan.
He said in surprise, "You know me?"
His expression became serious, and he said earnestly, "I am Xu Guangwen, and I did indeed instigate this matter. This is my fault, and I will go to the Law Enforcement Hall to accept the punishment later. But I am indeed unconvinced about you taking the position of Peak Master! I have been operating on Hidden Peak for many years, with extremely high contributions and merits, and my cultivation has reached the Peak of Golden Core. By all accounts, I am the most qualified candidate for the Peak Master position, but a Peak Master was suddenly parachuted in. Naturally, I am unconvinced!"
Su Yuan smiled and said, "If you were on another Peak, taking this Peak Master position would be fine, but on Hidden Peak, well, there are some issues. Of course, it's not that you can't take it. After I serve for a period, I can also hand it over to you!"
"What do you mean?" Xu Guangwen frowned, feeling that Su Yuan's words had a hidden meaning.
Su Yuan asked curiously, "Do you usually just focus on cultivating? How many years did it take you to reach the Peak of Golden Core?"
Xu Guangwen said proudly, "I have supreme Spiritual Roots. I reached the Peak of Golden Core in just ninety-eight years of cultivation. At the same time, I don't just bury myself in seclusion. I often go out for training outside the Sect, killing several Peak Golden Core demon beasts and many well-known demonic and evil Cultivators! I have also experienced life and death, and faced dangers. From every perspective, I am much stronger than you!"
Upon hearing this, Su Yuan nodded calmly and said, "You are excellent, but some things still need to follow the rules!"
"Rules? To be a Peak Master in the Sect, there are three requirements: one is sufficient contribution, two is nomination by a Spirit Transformation Elder, and three is profound cultivation within the same realm. I satisfy all three. I'll assume you also satisfy the first two. But on the third point, I am unconvinced. The biggest rule in the cultivation world is strength! Let me test your mettle. Do you dare to fight?" Xu Guangwen said loudly.
Around him, many Golden Core Elders also stood with him. Although they just stood a little closer to Xu Guangwen, it seemed like they were evenly matched with Su Yuan's side.
Some Golden Core Elders beside Su Yuan exchanged speechless glances. Is this a matter of strength? The position of Peak Master of Hidden Peak, especially the first one, is not about cultivation level! This could potentially change the name of the Sect!
They all looked at Su Yuan with worry. He couldn't fight, could he? Even as the ancestor who opened the meridian, his cultivation time was too short now!
Upon hearing this, Su Yuan nodded calmly and said, "Okay, I'll give you this opportunity. But let's agree beforehand, if I defeat you, you can leave Three Absolutes Peak and go to other Peaks, or you can continue to stay on Three Absolutes Peak, but your punishment will be doubled!"
"Okay, what if you lose?" Xu Guangwen immediately asked.
Su Yuan smiled faintly, "Lose? Simple! I'll give you the position of Peak Master of Three Absolutes Peak! Anyway, I've already been Peak Master for three months."
Xu Guangwen frowned. He once again heard something unusual in Su Yuan's words. Vaguely, he felt that he had overlooked something.
He thought for a long time in his heart and found that there were no major errors in this matter, and his heart settled down.
Xu Guangwen said calmly on the surface, "Alright then, let's have a fight under everyone's witness!"
Su Yuan nodded with a smile. In his palm, a small jade pot appeared. It looked inconspicuous, but it was arguably the most valuable item in the Seven Absolutes Sect right now.
Was it shameful to use a sixth-grade Spirit Treasure against a third-grade Golden Core? Su Yuan didn't think it was shameful. Spirit Treasures were also his strength! And others didn't know he was using a sixth-grade Spirit Treasure against his opponent.
After possessing a sixth-grade Spirit Treasure, Su Yuan's confidence clearly swelled. Within the Sect, he felt he could be high-profile for once!
