"Have you seen the rankings?"
On their way to the Li Family estate, Li Qingyi asked Xu Ping'an.
"Yes, I have. What's the deal with this Grand Sect Competition?" Xu Ping'an inquired.
Li Qingyi looked at Xu Ping'an, not surprised that he knew about the Sect Competition, and explained, "The Grand Sect Competition among the four major sects is a customary event held every ten years. Each time we compete, our Beichen Sword Sect always comes in last, and the gap between us and the third place is significant."
"How significant?" Xu Ping'an asked.
"As far as I know, the Blade Sect, ranked third, already has eight disciples who have reached the Third Rank. And the Li Huo Sect and Tyrant Heavenly Sect probably have even more—definitely no fewer than ten," said Li Qingyi seriously.
"Why so many?" Xu Ping'an asked in surprise.
