The sect was not much different compared to the lower world. There was a constant flow of people, resources, and testing going on at all hours of the day. The only major difference was the umbrella of people expanded to Sky Realm aether beasts.
Oddly, they had no issue with humans, demons, or aether children hunting World Realm beasts or even at the Sky Realm. So long as the fight was open or utilized all tools possible to survive, it was simply the stronger defeating the weaker.
The only real restriction was the Mengcong itself.
As the sect was part of it, the beasts in the jungle were generally off limits. The only exception to that was if they were attacked first which was very easy to prove as Lady Gua was able to see anywhere at any time.
