"Everyone, leave." Yun Shui Zai Tian was very astute, understanding that watching any longer would eventually displease Hall Masters Di Chen and Jin Busan. As far as Yun Shui Zai Tian was concerned, he didn't dare offend the Hall Masters of Jisheng Hall or Golden Water Hall like the Sect Leader of the Immortal Sect did; even offending just one of them was not something he dared to imagine.

Immediately after, Yun Shui Zai Tian transformed into a swift streak and vanished from the scene, prompting the other factions aligned with him to leave as well.

The Yin-Yang Elders lingered for a moment, then reluctantly withdrew their gaze from the spectacle and left in a swift streak.

As the spectators left one after another, Jin Busan's displeasure gradually dissipated. He then patted Di Chen's shoulder and meaningfully said, "That's enough, let's end this here today. Let's not let it escalate."

After speaking, Jin Busan glanced at Wen Ping, managed a slight smile, and said, "Sect Leader Wen, I've clarified the misunderstanding for you. Hall Master Di doesn't intend to pursue it further. Shall we let this matter pass today and offer me, Jin Busan, a bit of face?"

Wen Ping had been prepared to teleport the Sword Demon and Wood Dragon here because if a battle broke out, they absolutely could not let the two leave alive. But who would have thought Jin Busan of Golden Water Hall would step in as a mediator.

Since things had reached this point, Wen Ping naturally became uninterested in continuing the fight.

If indeed they fought with Jisheng Hall, the task would certainly become untenable, and the opportunity to increase his fame level by 5 would slip away.

Originally, his goal on this journey was merely to kill those connected to the Tong family. To warn all factions harboring intentions against the Immortal Sect, that should the disciples' disputes involve the upper echelon of the Sect, even if protected by Jisheng Hall, Wen Ping dared to kill!

It's just unfortunate that, since they wouldn't be fighting Jisheng Hall today, they couldn't take the bodies of the three from Yu Pass.

Three black shadow tools, gone just like that.

"Well, let's leave it at that." Since they weren't fighting, Wen Ping decided not to stay anymore, as the teleportation array upgrade was nearly complete.

In Heaven and Earth Lake, Zhetian Tower watched intently, and he didn't want to waste more time on Jisheng Hall's matters.

After speaking, Wen Ping controlled his sword, transformed into a swift streak, and departed.

Lucifer also stepped into the Holy Light and vanished without a trace.

Concerning Wen Ping's departure, Di Chen was like a dumb person eating bitter herbs, unable to voice the pain. After Wen Ping left, Di Chen almost ground his teeth to pieces when he glanced at the utterly disfigured and deceased three from Yu Pass, trembling with rage.

Just recently promoted, they were killed by a powerhouse from the Immortal Sect.

Nearby, Jin Busan consoled, "Alright, you and I both understand the importance of the Immortal Sect Leader in the Domain Master's eyes. It's just three Middle Realm War Gods that died. Such people can be found casually."

"Six!" Di Chen said in a deep voice.

Jin Busan slapped his forehead, "Look at my memory."

...

When Wen Ping flew back to the medical hall with his sword, the events that just transpired had already rapidly spread throughout the city, and within half a day, everyone knew.

Upon awakening and learning of the news, his father-in-law was so overwhelmed with gratitude that, despite his severe injuries, he almost kneeled, "Sect Leader Wen, your immense grace and virtue will never be forgotten by the Yue Family!"

His father-in-law was moved.

He began to be grateful that he had sent Yue Song to the Master's Dao Maze against the clan's opposition at that time.

The Immortal Sect was much stronger than the Red Leaf Sect.

The Red Leaf Sect had only taken from them, never truly helped the Yue Family.

Wen Ping raised his hand, utilizing Vein Qi to support his father-in-law, then said, "The Sect's help wasn't for the Yue Family, just for Yue Song alone."

Wen Ping didn't want the Yue Family to mistake the Immortal Sect as their reliance.

Because the Immortal Sect's vassal was only the Lake Demon Race at Demon Emperor Lake.

However, despite Wen Ping's clarification, his father-in-law still thanked him profusely until Wen Ping couldn't take it anymore and left the medical hall.

After leaving the medical hall, Wen Ping called Yun Liao aside to instruct him, "Elder Yun, from the start of the second round of the tournament, these disciples are entrusted to you."

"Sect Leader, are you returning to the Sect?" Yun Liao had already learned from Chen Xie about the fierce battle between Zhetian Tower's powerhouses and the Micro Star Rain.

Wen Ping nodded, then continued, "After publicly punishing the Tong family today, I presume no Earth Unrestricted will dare to resort to underhanded tactics behind the scenes anymore. If anything happens that you can't handle, communicate with the Sect using the Sound Transmission Stone, the Sect is always your backup!"

Yun Liao nodded firmly and bowed, "Sect Leader, rest assured. Your subordinate will certainly lead these disciples to fulfill your expectations and not disappoint you!"

Wen Ping nodded, then immediately inquired with the system, if completing Red Domain's first place as a task, how many Sect Task Points would Yun Liao receive.

The system provided a number—100!

"Why is it so little?"

Wen Ping was startled.

The system explained, "Red Domain's first place is easy for Yun Liao to achieve. The truly challenging task is Heaven-Gazing Gorge's first place. If the host assigns this task to Yun Liao, the reward of Sect Task Points will be as high as 3000 points!"

"3000 points, quite generous." Wen Ping muttered internally, then said to Yun Liao, "Elder Yun, once you secure Red Domain's first place, I will assign you a Sect task with a reward of 3000 Sect Task Points. 2000 Sect Task Points should be sufficient for cultivation in Fa Yuan Valley and the Fifth World for some time."

Upon hearing the reward of 3000 Sect Task Points, Yun Liao became so excited his heart almost leaped out.

3000 Sect Task Points, if solely for entering the Fifth World, could sustain cultivation for thirty full months, saving considerable time on performing Sect tasks. Once his spiritual power reaches the second stage, he can directly cultivate Tier Four magic, moving towards the peak power of Earth Unrestricted!

"Thank you, Sect Leader." Yun Liao thanked him, feeling honored and overwhelmed.

Wen Ping smiled with satisfaction, without divulging further details of the task to Yun Liao, instead, he first led the disciples back to their lodging and had Yun Liao distribute Mirror-Breaking Pills, aiming for everyone to be at the Lower Realm of Mountain Suppression before the second round of the tournament.

The tournament was organized into groups of five, with 80 individuals forming 16 groups. However, there was one issue; Yun Liao came short.

However, the second round of the tournament required five-person teams for confrontation.

Yet Wen Ping was not bothered by this; once the teleportation array was constructed and activated, it immediately brought him back to the Immortal Sect.

After Wen Ping left, Yun Liao directly set his sights on Heaven-Defying Sect, then asked Chen Xie for help with Heaven-Defying Sect's Sect Leader Wan Changqing.

While at Star Sword Mountain, Yun Liao had encountered the Sect Leader of Heaven-Defying Sect several times and conversed, thus they became acquainted.

This time, Yun Liao planned to bring a few disciples from Heaven-Defying Sect to pass through the second round of the tournament, it could be considered helping this aspiring Heaven-Defying Sect Leader. Of course, Yun Liao's main intention was to test his own prowess.

When people from Jin Zhi's Tower brought Wan Changqing to the Immortal Sect's lodging, Yun Liao explained his idea, and both Wan Changqing and Hao Qing were surprised and delighted, "Elder Yun, please wait here, we'll go bring over the disciples right away."

Initially, Wan Changqing and Hao Qing intended for disciples to gain experience in the Seven Domains Celestial Ascension Ranking, with a belief their disciples could pass the tournament's second round. Now, hearing Yun Liao's willingness to assist Heaven-Defying Sect, both Wan Changqing and Hao Qing grinned widely.

So overnight, they sent the disciples to Yun Liao. The four disciples were all at the Divine Profound Upper Realm in strength. If placed in Heaven and Earth Lake, they could be considered top talents, but in Heaven-Gazing Gorge, they could only be regarded as above average, and the second round of the tournament was almost their limit.
