Three days later, ninety percent of the forces in the Ancient Martial World had come to Beidou Sect. Meanwhile, Lin Fei also allowed those families who had left the Dou Sect and wanted to return into Beidou Sect, as these powers were still insufficient.

Lin Fei looked at the immense crowd below; at this moment, no one could stop them. They were all Ancient Martial Artists, each possessing a Dantian, marking them as extraordinary individuals.

If this force stepped onto the global stage, it could instantly seize control, but Lin Fei had no interest in world domination; his true interest lay in confronting those bandit-like figures from the Upper Realm.

"You all must have felt the malice of the Upper Realm toward our Lower Realm, haven’t you?" Lin Fei asked.

Everyone was silent, not responding to Lin Fei but waiting for him to continue.

Lin Fei looked at the dense crowd below and spoke, "Some might not know the difference between the Upper Realm and Lower Realm. Let me explain: the Upper Realm is where cultivation ultimately leads, but it’s not necessarily where we must go. If you do go, you can imagine how those from the Upper Realm view us today."

"People from the Upper Realm possess a kind of superiority, much like how you as Ancient Martial Artists view ordinary people, but in their eyes, we from the Lower Realm aren’t even equal to ordinary people — merely as insects!"

Upon hearing Lin Fei’s words, especially the part where Upper Realm individuals considered Lower Realm people as insects, many were instantly enraged. Who would willingly be seen as an insect? Likely no one.

Insects are things that can be crushed casually. As humans, as Ancient Martial Artists, their identity and dignity are unmatched by ordinary people. The greater their power, the stronger their sense of dignity.

Therefore, hearing Lin Fei’s words stirred a commotion among many Ancient Martial Artists, turning into a wave of deafening noise, reminiscent of blaring steam whistles.

Sound waves actually began surging skyward in tangible waves.

Lin Fei spoke to halt the clamor of the crowd, "Do not make noise, everyone. Although the Upper Realm views us as insects, our power is something they absolutely cannot match."

"The Lower Realm has its own rules, and the Upper Realm has its own laws. Thus, in the Upper Realm, even a hundred of me might not be able to defeat one of them. But in the Lower Realm, this land aids us, diminishing their cultivation greatly, giving us the chance to defeat them."

Upon hearing Lin Fei’s words, the crowd erupted in cheers, with a deafening roar that stirred emotions. Yet Lin Fei knew it wasn’t enough, extending his hand to stop the noise, he continued, "Though they see us as insects, our ultimate destination is the expanse of the Upper Realm."

Upon hearing Lin Fei’s words, the crowd quieted, puzzled by his intent.

"You all might be wondering why, mightn’t you? Because the Upper Realm holds yet broader horizons. But before that, we must enable the people of the Lower Realm to resist the bullying from the Upper Realm. We must make them know that the Lower Realm is our territory, and within our territory, they have no right to be arrogant!"

Boom!

The crowd, hearing his last words, felt their spirits surge with boundless excitement. They all wished to achieve what Lin Fei aspired to, though regarding their own skills, they feared inadequacy.

At this moment, Lin Fei shifted the topic to the main point.

"If you wish to defeat the Upper Realm individuals, relying solely on me won’t work. As happened this time, just one of me, if they disperse, they’ll completely crush you, and I naturally cannot aid you. Therefore, I have decided: you must hand over your Inheritance Techniques and Martial Arts, and under everyone’s supervision, we’ll create a powerful Cultivation Technique to defeat them!"

Upon hearing Lin Fei’s words, the crowd fell silent, beginning to whisper among themselves. Commotion spread below, yet Lin Fei did not stop them, instead sitting in meditation, awaiting their deliberations.

Gradually, the murmuring grew louder, but eventually subsided and fell silent, as they curiously gazed at Lin Fei, puzzled by his relaxed demeanor.

"You’ve all considered, haven’t you? If so, it’s time for me to speak." Lin Fei opened.

The crowd did not respond, and Lin Fei continued, "Hereafter, I offer you a choice: if you’re willing to submit your Inheritance Techniques and Martial Arts, stay. If unwilling, you may leave Beidou Sect now, though naturally you’ll be accountable for your choices."

Upon hearing Lin Fei’s words, having heard the tale regarding the Liu Family and other small families — especially with those families still among the crowd — they were fearful!

That feeling of powerlessness let them know victory against the opposition was impossible, except through Lin Fei!

Those considered immensely powerful in their eyes were seen by Lin Fei as mere ordinary people, easily killed with a single punch, something none anticipated.

They recognized Lin Fei’s strength but had never seen him act personally, shocked by his exposure of power.

Yet still, some remained stubborn, heading toward the exit of Beidou Sect.

Lin Fei coldly smiled at those leaving, saying nothing, but continued, "If you’re leaving, hurry up. You have ten minutes to decide. If you leave, do not return; if you stay, submit your Inheritance and other Martial Arts, otherwise, you’ll also be expelled from Beidou Sect."

Upon hearing Lin Fei’s words, many felt the situation was far from simple; after all, Lin Fei seemed to be forcing a choice upon them. Yet the crux was Lin Fei’s insistence that once they left, they’d have no association with Beidou Sect in the future, which led many to wild speculation.

Ten minutes swiftly passed; a third left, another third remained to observe. Yet when Beidou Sect’s gates shut, three powerful presences descended, eliciting cries of suffering and pleas from outside.

"It seems someone outside is being slaughtered..." 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞

Without needing to speak, everyone was filled with dread as they noticed Lin Fei sitting calmly, indifferent to the cries from outside.

Lin Fei’s indifference led many to despair completely, while cries to open the gates rang outside, Lin Fei turned a blind eye, wholly detached from the matter.
