Chapter 35 - Joining the Spirit Sword Sect extra update!

“Third uncle, what exactly was written on the envelope?”

Lin Bai had been asking since last night till this morning.

Every time Lin Bai asked about what was written on the envelope, Lin Yue responded with a mysterious smile and no answer.

“What was written?” Lin Bai asked.

Lin Yue, irritated, said, “Aren’t you going to kill Lin Zi’er at Canghai Yuntai Palace in a year?”

“Yes, but what does that have to do with the envelope?” Lin Bai asked in confusion.

“Then don’t ask too many questions.

In a year, when you go to Canghai Yuntai Palace, you will naturally know what is written on the envelope,” Lin Yue said with a smile.

Lin Bai’s eyebrows furrowed into a frown: “It’s so mysterious.”

“Lin Bai, you must remember, Lin Zi’er has a Martial Soul of the Heaven Level Fifth Grade, her speed of cultivation is extremely fast.

If you want to catch up with her within a year, you must work hard yourself, and at the same time, rely on the training plan arranged for you by Ling Tianzi.”

“As long as you can defeat Lin Zi’er, then no genius of the Canghai Yuntai Palace will be your opponent.”

“Do you understand?

Keep practicing, or else you will not be a match for Lin Zi’er after a year.”

Again, Lin Yue gave a mysterious smile.

“Don’t worry, Third Uncle, after a year, I will certainly be able to defeat Lin Zi’er,”

Lin Bai confidently said.

Lin Yue continued, “Let’s go, we should head to the City Lord’s Mansion.”

Early this morning, many of the warriors participating in the Martial Arts Competition arrived at the City Lord’s Mansion.

The Lord of Lingxi City announced, “The results of yesterday’s competition for disciples are out.”

“Lin Bai, one hundred and twenty-three points, ranked first.”

“Lijian Xing, thirty points, ranked second.”

“Zhang Yao, ten points, ranked third.”

“Bai Zhiyuan, three points, ranked fourth.”

“Sun Chaoyang, two points, ranked fifth.”

“Everyone else, one point.”

As soon as the Lord of Lingxi City finished announcing, it caused an immediate stir in the crowd.

“Lin Bai actually scored one hundred and twenty-three points.”

“He seized all the Demon Beasts that Lin Zi’er killed, of course he got the highest score.”

“Exactly, there are more than a hundred points’ worth of Demon Beasts on the Northwest Mountains.”

“Of course, he has the highest score.”

“But what’s the use of a high score, what future can a waste have?”

“That’s right, no matter how high his score, his Martial Soul of Yellow Level First Grade is still rubbish.”

Many warriors sneered at Lin Bai.

A Martial Soul, represented how far a warrior could go in the future.

And Lin Bai’s Yellow Level First Grade destined him to stop at the Martial Arts Ninth Level; he could not break through to the True Martial Realm.

This was fate.

Lin Bai stood on the Martial Arts Stage with the other disciples, showing a mocking smile at those who ridiculed him.

“A group of frogs at the bottom of the well, how can they see the power of the Devouring Sword Spirit.” Lin Bai shook his head and laughed to himself.

At this moment, the Lord of Lingxi City called, “Please, elders, select your disciples.”

At this point, Xiao Tianchu, Elder of the Fire Palace, Ling Han, Elder of the Edgeless Sect, and Ji Bei, Elder of the Spirit Sword Sect, all walked up to the platform.

“Everyone, then I will not be polite.” Xiao Tianchu laughed, “Lijian Xing, are you willing to join the Fire Palace?”

Lijian Xing, who was second on the points board, received an invitation from the Fire Palace.

Lijian Xing hesitated for a moment and bowed, “Thank you for the kindness Elder of the Fire Palace, but my sister has joined the Spirit Sword Sect, so I wish to practice in the Spirit Sword Sect.”

“What!

What you mean is you want to reject me?

Do you know what will happen if you reject me?” Xiao Tianchu became angry when he heard those words.

He was, after all, an Elder of the Fire Palace.

He was the first to step out to accept disciples, and he was actually rejected.

Isn’t this a direct slap in the face of the Fire Palace?

Lijian Xing’s face was bitter and difficult to look at.

“Lijian Xing, are you willing to join the Spirit Sword Sect?” Elder Ji Bei of the Spirit Sword Sect asked.

“I am willing,” Lijian Xing answered immediately.

“Ji Bei, are you determined to oppose me?” Xiao Tianchu said angrily.

“Xiao Tianchu, you heard it too.

He wants to join the Spirit Sword Sect, not your Fire Palace.” Ji Bei said with a faint smile.

In the face of Canghai Yuntai Palace, the Spirit Sword Sect could not resist, but against the Fire Palace, the Spirit Sword Sect still had some confidence.

“Hmph, you wait,” Xiao Tianchu humphed coldly and continued, “Zhang Yao, Bai Zhiyuan, Sun Chaoyang, are you willing to join my Fire Palace?”

Xiao Tianchu looked at the last few talented individuals.

The three were overjoyed and said, “We are willing.”

Afterward, Lijian Xing joined the Spirit Sword Sect.

Sun Chaoyang, Bai Zhiyuan, and Zhang Yao joined the Fire Palace.

The Edgeless Sect casually chose a few disciples and took them away.

The three great sects had almost made their choices, and not one person had mentioned Lin Bai.

Until the last moment when Ji Bei’s gaze fell on Lin Bai.

“Lin Bai, are you willing to join the Spirit Sword Sect?” Ji Bei asked.

Lin Bai smiled faintly, “I am willing.”

Originally, Lin Yue had recommended the Spirit Sword Sect.

Hearing Ji Bei’s invitation at this time, Lin Bai felt somewhat better.

“Ji Bei, it seems your Spirit Sword Sect is really on its last legs.

This kid dared to hurt a disciple of King Zhao; the Canghai Sky Palace will definitely come to settle accounts with him.

You dare to accept him as a disciple, isn’t that playing with fire?”

Xiao Tianchu said mockingly with a cold smile.

The Fire Palace and the Edgeless Sect both avoided Lin Bai like the plague.

Only Elder Ji Bei of the Spirit Sword Sect had some favorable impressions of Lin Bai.

Ji Bei laughed, “Maybe so, but perhaps this is also a chance for the Spirit Sword Sect.”

After everyone had finished taking disciples, they allowed the disciples to return home to pack their belongings.

That afternoon, the three great sects each took their respective disciples back to their sects.

“Third uncle, I’m leaving,” Lin Bai said to Lin Yue.

“Go ahead.

I should also be going.

I’m going to look for the Snake God Sect,” Lin Yue said.

“That’s right.

Now that you’ve regained your cultivation, you should go and find auntie and your children.” Lin Bai said with a smile.

“Remember, Lin Bai, Ling Tianzi is your best master.

It would be best if you could stay under his guidance.”

Before Lin Yue left, he specifically reminded Lin Bai once more.

Lin Bai nodded.

Immediately after, Lin Bai followed Ji Bei back to the Spirit Sword Sect.

Lin Yue, alone, embarked on the journey to find his wife and children.

The Spirit Sword Sect, which was established two thousand years ago, was founded by Ancestor Spirit Sword, who discovered a mysterious cave on Luoling Mountain, comprehended the will of heaven and earth, and created a unique sword skill, after which he founded the Spirit Sword Sect in one fell swoop.

Unfortunately, a traitor who appeared a hundred years later stole a large portion of the sect’s martial arts techniques, causing the Spirit Sword Sect to hit rock bottom.

Despite the fall of the Spirit Sword Sect, there were still more than five thousand disciples under its banner.

There were three thousand outer sect disciples.

Nine hundred inner sect disciples.

Nine core disciples.

One young sect master.

In addition to several elders, service personnel, a large sect with almost five thousand people.

But it was still far behind Canghai Yuntai Palace.

The outer sect disciples of Canghai Yuntai Palace numbered thirty thousand.

After three days of travel, Ji Bei led several disciples back to the Spirit Sword Sect.

At the same time, elders who had gone to other cities for martial arts competitions and recruitment of disciples also returned to the Spirit Sword Sect.
