At the west of the Holy sect was a large number of courtyards that weren't protected by any defensive formations that most courtyards in the Holy sect had.
It almost looked like any outer disciple could just barge in, and claim one of these courtyards for themselves if they wanted to.
Additionally, the qi inside each of these courtyards was much purer than the qi inside the normal courtyards of the Holy sect.
And yet, no normal outer disciple would dare to enter those courtyards without permission.
After all, this was the place where the top 100 factions of the Holy sect fought.
Every single one of the top 100 factions 'owned' one of these courtyards that spanned for more than a mile in radius, and considered it their own territory.
If a faction below the top 100 wanted to stay in one of the courtyards, they could only do so by challenging one of the top 100 factions for their 'territory'.
