One month later.
The Outer Sect was now thrown into chaos.
It all started with the arrival of the new disciple, Kong Xiang. After a couple of seniors tried to extort him unsuccessfully, he had suddenly come up with the idea of taking them under his wing to form a small squad, the Blood Hounds.
Within a week of the squad's formation, the Blood Hounds had swept through the Outer Sect like a hurricane, ruthlessly targeting the smaller gangs that usually went around extorting the weaker Sect disciples. Within the short span of a month, they had expanded their ranks, greedily admitting new members both from the newbie cultivators and from the members of the extortion gangs they defeated. Also, their leader, Kong Xiang, drafted a system for undertaking sect missions jointly, raking in rich rewards.
