With the Ai Family, Qingyang City’s 3.6 million people, and the Azure Mountain Sect’s elder, what did Jun Changxiao have to fear?
To be an unyielding person, to behave unyieldingly!
What was there to fear?
Even without such a powerful backing, Jun Changxiao dared to wreck the place, so he definitely felt no fear!
Thus, he used his status as sect head, under the influence of all parties of the Qingyang Commandery and before the more than 50 experts of the Hundred Sects Alliance, initiated a formal challenge to the Vast Spirit Gate for the first time!
Kacha!
Qin Haoran clenched his fists and ground his teeth. “My Vast Spirit Gate accepts!”
Patriarch Ai supporting Jun Changxiao was a great blow to him.
At this moment, Qin Haoran wished for the exchange to immediately start so that he could let his own disciples brutally beat the Ironbone Sect disciples up, letting him vent his anger.
Azure Mountain Sect’s Wang Donglin is here to support?
My apologies, but this is a martial exchange. Even if you are here to support the Ironbone Sect, you can only watch.
Alliance Chief Qin thought a little too much.
Although Wang Donglin had appeared here in support of Jun Changxiao, he was here as an individual and would definitely not disturb the martial exchange.
Shua!
Alliance Chief Qin flicked his sleeve and walked down to the stage of the main hall, stopping at the field.
Shua! Shua!
A thousand disciples gushed out from the inner courtyard, neatly lining up behind him and filling the area with vast momentum.
The 20 disciples standing in the first two rows locked their sights on Li Qingyang and the others, some filled with dignity, others with disdain.
These were the Vast Spirit Gate’s elite disciples.
Especially the 10 at the very front, those were Qin Haoran’s direct disciples; their cultivation and spirit roots were all pretty good.
The information was correct. Jun Changxiao secretly thought, This Vast Spirit Gate has three high-grade spirit root disciples.
With the function of the Anti-Glare Sunglasses, he could clearly analyze the ten direct disciples of the Vast Spirit Gate.
Know the enemy, know yourself, and in every battle you will be victorious.
When Li Qingyang and the others went for closed-door cultivation, the Great Sect Head Jun had assigned Drizzle Hall to find out the details of the Vast Spirit Gate.
The information was a bit detailed.
Where the three high-grade spirit root disciples lived, how many people lived in their families, how many acres their lands were, what they planted and the livestock they raised – everything.
The strengths of the ten direct disciples were excellent.
From left to right, the three high-grade spirit roots were respectively a First Stage Martial Master and two Peak Martial Apprentices.
Although the remaining seven disciples were mid-grade spirit roots, their aptitude was comparably insufficient. There were three Ninth Stage Martial Apprentices and four Eighth Stage Martial Apprentices!
As a fifth-grade sect, scraping together three high-grade spirit roots, with some of them breaking through to Martial Master, was pretty average.
Just, there wasn’t one superior-grade spirit root.
As they were a fifth-grade sect, even if they did have a superior-grade disciple, they would at most only have one.
If Xiao Zuiji’s aptitude had not receded, with his aptitude, forget about fourth or fifth-grade sects, even second and third-grade sects would rush to recruit him.
Divine-grade spirit roots were mostly concentrated in the first-grade sects.
Most divine-grade spirit roots were considered to have the destiny of a Heaven’s favorite. In the years that they appeared, as long as they did not die an accidental death, they could even reach the imperial throne, becoming a being worshipped by all.
Compared to the Vast Spirit Gate…
The Ironbone Sect had Li Qingyang, Xiao Zuiji, and Ye Xingchen as three high-grade spirit roots — it didn’t seem too weak either.
It wasn’t that they were weak, but that they lacked background.
Forget about overall strength, they could not compare to the thousand disciples.
Do not fear, do not pause.
This road had to be walked step by step; no one became a fatty with one bite.
“Sect Head Jun.”
Qin Haoran lightly asked, “How do you want to fight?”
Jun Changxiao said, “My Ironbone Sect will send out seven disciples, your Vast Spirit Gate will send out seven disciples, 4 out of 7 is enough for victory. How does that sound?”
“Alright.” Qin Haoran did not have any complaints.
Since this was now an honest and upright martial exchange, it was impossible for him to make all one thousand disciples fight.
“Except,” he paused. With a dagger hidden behind his smile, he added, “Since this is an exchange, how about we add stakes?”
Jun Changxiao touched his nose. “What stakes does Alliance Chief Qin want to add?”
Qin Haoran said, “For this martial exchange, if my Vast Spirit Gate wins, let’s have Sect Head Jun remain here to clean the horse stables for a year.”
“Haha,” Shen Tong laughed. “So Alliance Chief Qin lacked a servant. I quite think that Sect Head Jun will be a good fit.”
“To be able to clean the stables of the Vast Spirit Sect, he should be honored.”
The experts of the Alliance ridiculed.
The martial artists watching shook their heads. If the lord of a sect really cleaned the horse stables in the Vast Spirit Gate, he would lose all face.
Related to these stakes…
Qin Haoran had some ideas.
When he first thought about it, he wanted to have Jun Changxiao kowtow before himself and apologize.
What was the crime?
It was the crime of arbitrarily leaving the Hundred Sects Alliance.
But Patriarch Ai and the Azure Mountain Sect had come to watch, so he could only take a step back, changing the punishment to cleaning the stables.
Although the wager was slightly different, the goal was still the same: attacking Jun Changxiao’s self-respect and ruthlessly trampling on his personality!
Regarding the lord of a sect, this was a method more fearful than killing!
Qin Haoran smiled, “Sect Head Jun, what do you think?”
You don’t actually give a fuck about my thoughts. Jun Changxiao said, “This lord has not said his own stakes.”
“Please speak,” Qin Haoran said. He did not take this seriously because he had full assurance to cream the Ironbone Sect in this martial exchange.
Jun Changxiao considered for a moment, then said, “This lord hopes that if Alliance Chief Qin loses, please clean the latrines of my Ironbone Sect for one year.”
“Sect Head!” Su Xiaomo seriously said, “Alliance Chief Qin is such a noble person. If you send him to clean the latrines, Disciple fears he won’t be able to shit.”
Li Fei echoed the sentiment: “Thinking of Alliance Chief Qin personally cleaning, and cleaning it so spick and span, Disciple feels some guilt.”
One Vast Spirit Gate disciples could not bear to listen to them and directly scolded them: “You two lunatics, what the hell are you saying?!”
Su Xiaomo acted dumb and asked, “Who is the lunatic?”
“Lunatic was…” That Vast Spirit Gate’s disciples mind did a turn and he changed his statement, “You’re the lunatic!”
“Fuck your mother, your entire family are lunactics! Your ancestors, 18 generations of your family, are all lunatics!” Su Xiaomo randomly cursed, spit flying.
The imposing manner could not be lost even when cursing people!
That Vast Spirit Gate disciples was angered and had turned red in the face. He was prepared to curse back, but was stopped by Qin Haoran.
“Hmph.” One Alliance expert sneered, “Such vulgar language, Sect Head Jun sure led him on the right path.”
Jun Changxiao lightly responded, “Old fogy, did you not hear that it was the Vast Spirit Gate’s disciple who spat first? Is this lord’s disciple supposed to be an honest and good-natured person, accepting the scolding and then persuading the opponent with words of universal love and respect?”
Universal love was the belief of saints and sages.
Words of respect were only for those deserving of respect.
On Falling Star Continent, when dealing with someone without respect, one had to be even more disrespectful.
“Alliance Chief Qin, my wager?”
Qin Haoran cupped a hand, speaking to the martial artists on the sidelines, “Everyone please testify, my Vast Spirit Gate and Ironbone Sect have set the stakes.”
“Relax, Alliance Chief Qin. Everyone here can see,” a martial artists, who didn’t think the situation was so serious, called out. “Whoever does not follow the rules of the bet is a degenerate of Jianghu, spurned by everyone!”
“Right!”
Other martial artists followed with echoes.
Shua!
Satisfied, Qin Haoran cupped a fist and said, “Sect Head Jun, please!”
Shua! Shua!
The Vast Spirit Gate disciples rapidly spread out, encircling half of the training field. The Alliance experts and other martial artists stood around the open religious, where it was easy to observe the fight.
