In the sect competition, the initial matches took place where the Celestial Lotus sect competed against the Eternal Wisdom Temple sect, resulting in a victory for CLS. Subsequent rounds followed with other sects participating. Currently, GMS is facing off against IPS (Ivory Peak Sect) in the first round of the pill competition.
Ai Song and other pill refiners took the stage, provided with the same herbs and recipe as the IPS disciples. They carefully inspected the recipe and herbs to determine the necessary quantities for an efficient and productive pill. Once ready, they began maintaining the fire in the cauldron. Spectators marveled at the earth fire displayed by each pill refiner from GMS, while IPS disciples mostly showcased beast fire with a few instances of earth fire, sparking curiosity among onlookers.
During a conversation with Li Tian, a person inquired about the abundance of fires. Li Tian explained that in the past, individuals who acquired earth fire in the sect would leave some in a spiritual room for it to develop and be utilized by other disciples later on. After a few hours of carefully tending to the herbs and fire properties, the pill development process was completed. An elder inspected the pills and announced that GMS had produced five mid-grade and five low-grade pills, whereas IPS had created four mid-grade and six low-grade, both sect refined the pill of grade nine.
GMS has taken the lead in the competition with their pill competition win. Now, a martial competition is about to take place as Li Tian had previously mentioned the use of low-grade martial arts. Their main weapon will be the Attribute punch. First, Tian Bao steps onto the field from IPS, a courageous disciple who enters the arena. He demonstrates his wind element through swift movements and delivers a punch towards Tian Bao with the assistance of the wind element. In response, Tian Bao unleashes his lightning element and counters the wind punch with a series of punches. Due to his impeccable body cultivation, Tian Bao gains the upper hand as his punches prove to be more powerful compared to the IPS disciple. After more than thirty rounds of punches, the IPS disciple becomes exhausted and surrenders.
In the subsequent round, a similar outcome was observed, which left the audience astonished. Following the victorious martial round, the sword round commenced. Suddenly, a chilling breeze swept through the hall, captivating everyone's attention. They were mesmerized by Quan Ning's mastery of the ice element, while a sword-wielding IPS member representing the fire element stepped forward to engage in combat. However, his progress was abruptly halted by the ice, causing him to freeze into an icy structure, leaving everyone in shock. Exploiting this fear, another disciple from GMS easily emerged victorious despite the challenging rounds. After losing three rounds consecutively, IPS ultimately surrendered in the subsequent round of casting.
