Heaven-defying Phoenix

The dazzling white halo revolved around the temporary teleportation gate. It was mysterious, but the teleportation pathway that should have been opened was already closed.    

"Time's up. It's time for them to return."    

Nian Wuxin looked at Xiao Buyi and laughed.    

"Right."    

Xiao Buyi nodded his head, then turned to the people beside him and said: "Alright, it's about time, elders, let's do it."    

With that said, Xiao Buyi's body once again released a vast and majestic Qi, with both of his hands connecting, streams of light flowed out, straight towards the teleportation gate.    

As he moved, the remaining extreme elders also unhesitatingly exploded forth with their own strength. For a time, all sorts of lights flashed.    

The void suddenly shook. The temporary teleportation gate seemed to have been summoned of some sort at this moment, suddenly erupting with bright rays of light from the middle and following which, it gradually condensed into an illusory passageway.    

Then, Nian Wuxin's body moved, and instantly charged into the passage. When he appeared again, he was already at the Falling Moon Mountain, and right where he stood was the place where Jiu Muli and the rest had originally been.    

The dense forest and vitality of the Falling Moon Mountain was filled with dense foliage. The towering trees were completely covered in the dense forest and shadows of people were completely submerged within it. The only thing that could be seen was the roars of demonic beast, indicating the dangers of the Falling Moon Mountain.    

Jiu Muli, Mu Li, Guo Liang and the other two were traveling through the forest, rushing towards the original entrance.    

"Mu Li, you want to fight for the outer sect's ten spots?"    

Mu Chu said faintly, looking at Jiu Muli with a strange expression and heart that could not be described with words.    

"En, I plan to enter the inner sect this time." Jiu Muli smiled and nodded.    

At this point, she had nothing to hide, the outer sect of Qing Yun Sect was not big, if she wanted to obtain more cultivation resources, she would have to go to inner sect to increase her cultivation speed.    

The Kun Peng's reminder, coupled with the trip to Huangquan Mansion, made her feel that time was pressing for more and more. She felt that it wouldn't be long before something big was going to happen.    

"Hey, this cultivation speed of yours."    

Mu Chu didn't know what Jiu Muli was thinking, but he was genuinely amazed and envious of Jiu Muli's talent    

When he had first met Jiu Muli, the other party had only just entered the sect and was just an unremarkable little cultivator who didn't know anything. He hadn't thought that in less than three months, the other party would have the qualification to compete with the top disciples of the outer sect, and even wanted to enter inner sect.    

"Nothing much, you can do it! I believe I will be able to enter the inner sect soon."    

Jiu Muli smiled as she consoled him. Mu Chu's talent was not weak, and she felt that the other party was hiding a strange power within his body. It was just that for some reason, he had not awakened.    

"All disciples, gather at the entrance within an hour!"    

Right at this moment, the identity token vibrated and a voice suddenly sounded.    

"It's Elder Nian!"    

Mu Chu cried out in alarm, and immediately replied, "An hour, still not enough time."    

They had already departed just now, and the distance was not far. An hour was more than enough.    

Jiu Muli nodded, and did not deliberately increase her speed. Far away, she could feel that many auras were moving, and they were all outer sect disciples of the Qing Yun Sect.    

Obviously, these people had long since been prepared. It was time to leave.    

"Chi!"    

A streak of lightning flashed past, followed by a graceful voice, like a butterfly piercing through a flower, instantly charging in front of Jiu Muli.    

"Jiu Muli, it's you!"    

This was none other than Lei Qianzi. From the moment she had entered the Falling Moon Mountain, she had always been looking forward to meeting Jiu Muli, but unfortunately, she had never met him.    

"What's the matter?"    

Jiu Muli frowned slightly. She did not have a good impression of Lei Qianzi, so she was naturally not in the mood to speak nonsense.    

"I thought you were going to keep hiding."    

Lei Qianzi curled his lips and sneered, then said: "I wonder how many points you have. I hope that you will not disappoint me this time around. I am the contribution point that is waiting for you."    

"Oh, so it's like that. It's good that you didn't disappoint me. Yours will soon be mine."    

Jiu Muli sarcastically retorted, at the same time, she was surprised that her actions in the past three days were not small. It was impossible that Lei Qianzi did not receive the news, she truly did not understand where the other party's courage came from, and was challenging her right now.    

She didn't believe that Lei Qianzi would really surpass her, unless he helped her along. However, looking at the relationship between Lei Dong and Lei Qianzi, they shouldn't be in such a good state, after all, they weren't siblings.    

"Hmph, I hope you won't go back on your words. Otherwise …" The corner of Lei Qianzi's mouth rose, his eyes full of anger.    

As an outstanding daughter of the Lei Family, in the Qing Yun Sect, even the disciples of the inner sect would dare to be rude to her. She did not expect Jiu Muli to not care about her face at all, which made her exceptionally angry.    

"The same goes for you."    

Jiu Muli said calmly. For someone like Lei Qianzi, giving her face was useless, she was cunning and knew that she did not have enough strength, so not only did she not fight, she even used such a small trick.    

"Then I'll wait." Jiu Muli sneered.    

"Let's wait and see."    

She had absolute confidence that she would be able to obtain more points than Jiu Muli, because there were a lot of people by her side who were helping her. From the Star Profound Stage to the Star Master Stage, these people who knew that it would be difficult to enter the top hundred, were all intentionally selling themselves off to her.    

Furthermore, she didn't even need to invite anyone, who would automatically deliver benefits to her and request for her to take care of them. Under such a situation, if she was still unable to surpass Jiu Muli, she wouldn't believe it herself.    

After Lei Qianzi left, Mu Chu said worriedly, "Mu Li, do you really have enough points? From yesterday onwards, the bet between you and her spread and people have been giving her points ever since. "    

"It's fine, I know what I'm doing." Jiu Muli scoffed, unless there was an existence with power like the Tianxin Hall behind Lei Qianzi, it was almost impossible to surpass her.    

After all, even Ye Lan had more than 40,000 points, since not everyone had her strength.    

Mu Chu was still a little worried. After hesitating for a while, he said: "How about, I give you my points first."    

"Don't, I think it's better if it's me. Senior Sister Mu Chu, you have hope to enter the top hundred, but I definitely don't have any hope, so there's no harm giving it away." Hearing that, Guo Liang anxiously stopped her.    

The points could be exchanged for contribution point. Although it was not much, once it was transferred out, it would not be allowed to be transferred back, and must be accumulated again in the future. Furthermore, the points were related to strength, if one's cultivation was not high enough and received a large amount of points, even if they were to be ranked at the top, they would still become the target of public criticism.    

Following Guo Liang's words, the remaining Mu Qing and Xiao Qin also nodded.    

"Really, there's no need."    

Jiu Muli smiled as he shook his head: "I have more points than all of you added together. If that's the case, then I can't surpass her.    

Even if he lost, and her second round results were too eye-catching, at that time, the person who would be in trouble would also be Lei Qianzi.    

Mu Chu and the other three naturally could not say anything, and in the end, followed his will.    

"This damn place, I can finally get out."    

"It's been three days. Not bad at all."    

Some of the outer sect disciples lamented. It was obvious that the Falling Moon Mountain was not a good place.    

"Lin Chong, get the hell out here."    

Some of the disciples angrily roared, followed by the sound of fierce fighting.    

Along the way, Jiu Muli had encountered many such disputes, and the majority of them had fought each other within three days to form grudges.    

Seeing these people fighting to the death, Jiu Muli sighed in her heart. Although she was already used to this kind of thing, she still felt that it was a little strange, but in the end she still did not take action, and only left quietly.    

This was not an act, but an acknowledgment from the bottom of his heart.    

Qing Yun Sect, Grinding Sword Summit.    

Following the opening of the teleportation gate, not long later, the outer sect disciples who were supposed to participate in the first round of the Large Competition all came out one by one. When they saw Xiao Buyi and the other elders of the sect, their faces all became serious, as they did not dare to be presumptuous.    

"I wonder who will get first place this time."    

"First place is meaningless. To be able to enter the top 100, that's enough, do you really think an existence like Senior Sister Bing Ji would really go and collect the points?"    

"That's true."    

After all, the first round of the Large Competition was only for the selection of the top hundred places. For this reason, they would not reveal their hidden methods by killing each other.    

Following that, more and more disciples started to come out, and gradually, the place became more and more lively. When Jiu Muli came out, it was already very noisy outside, and the entire Smelting Sword Peak was filled with people.    

"You're out!"    

The moment Jiu Muli came out, his provocative gaze locked on her. It could be seen that she had already been waiting for a long time.    

"Do you want to give me the contribution point?"    

Jiu Muli raised his eyebrows, and faced her with the same cold brows.    

"Heh, that must be Jiu Muli, I didn't expect to be targeted by him."    

"You left early last time. Did you hear? They already made a bet."    

There were people who noticed the exchange between Jiu Muli and Lei Qianzi, and could not help but discuss among themselves, when everyone heard about the wager between the two, their faces changed slightly.    

Even though the first round of the competition was a gift to the contribution point, it was still not easy. It was unexpected that the two of them would actually compare the rewards they had obtained.    

At the same time, even more people were not optimistic about Jiu Muli, and did not even try to remind him of their intentions, they only waited to see a joke at the side. Although Jiu Muli had made quite a big commotion over the past few days and had made a huge name for herself, they did not think that she could compare to Lei Qianzi.    

Only those who had fought alongside Ye Lan in the Tianxin Hall would understand how terrifying Jiu Muli was.    

In the end, Nian Wuxin appeared, and a familiar voice entered everyone's ears, "The first round of the outer sect competition is over, the names of the top ten people will be announced below."    

With that, Nian Wuxin gave a signal to Xiao Buyi, and then with a hand sign, a name list suddenly appeared in front of everyone.    

"Motherf * cker, it's like the imperial ranking. Is there even a need for an outer sect competition!?"    

Jiu Muli couldn't help but scold him. He obviously had a strong existence like his identity plate, yet he still wanted to pull such a trick, like he did during the opening ceremony of the schools in his previous life.
