Chapter 239 Sign up for competition
Since this was Shen Youqing's first time participating, Lin Youran thoughtfully said, "At the Five Sects Conference, the scores of the direct disciples and inner disciples of each sect are counted separately, and the scores of the direct disciples of each sect are related to the sect's ranking."

Shen Youqing nodded.

Lin Jinyao looked at her senior brother, "What do you mean?"

Their abilities aren't that bad; if they give it their all, it's not impossible for them to take first place.

"Just playing around as usual, shall we?" Yang Yousheng asked.

Liang Shimu's gaze unconsciously drifted towards Shen Youqing.

He had seen his junior sister's hard work all along. What would happen to her if they just played around?

"I'm fine with anything." Shen Youqing smiled and said, "I'll listen to my senior brother."

At worst, I can just coast along with them in the team competition, and then go and have a blast in the individual competition.

As for honors, she didn't care about them.

"I think we should take this seriously." Lin Youran was the first to speak, her gentle voice now filled with determination. "I've worked hard at my training, after all, this time we're going to fight for first place!"

They're all chosen ones, and who doesn't have a competitive spirit?

A fighting spirit ignited in Yang Yousheng's eyes.

Needless to say, Lin Jinyao was another one.

"Okay!" Liang Shimu made the final decision.

Xiao Ke looked up and a clear voice rang out, "I won't hold you back."

Liang Shimu looked at his junior brothers and sisters and said, "This time, it will be six direct disciples of our Hehuan Sect. The five sects have discussed and reached a conclusion. The score of the fourth-ranked disciple will not be included in the total score."

"That means our scores have to be similar, at least the scores of the last three can't be too far apart," Lin Youran said thoughtfully.

If the scores of the bottom three are too far apart, it will be difficult for them to compete for first place!
"Which ones can be ranked at the top?" Lin Jinyao asked.

"I definitely can't," Lin Youran said without hesitation.

The alchemist's combat strength is what it is; she's a weak link in the team competition, and her chances in the individual competition are probably slim, since her opponents are all alchemists from the Qingyu Sect.

“It looks like it might be Junior Sister and Fifth Junior Brother,” Yang Yousheng said thoughtfully. “But Junior Sister’s situation is rather special; she can fight and heal.”

The junior sister may look weak, but if a fight really breaks out, she might be the strongest fighter.

"That means Third Junior Sister and Fifth Junior Brother are in more danger," Liang Shimu concluded. "Among them, Third Junior Sister is the most in danger."

Lin Youran opened her mouth, but in the end, she couldn't utter a single word in rebuttal.

Since her fifth junior brother started training his body and practicing swordsmanship, she is now the one with the lowest combat power.

We were cooking together perfectly fine, how come he suddenly became so amazing?

"Third Senior Sister, don't put too much pressure on yourself," Shen Youqing said. "We've got you covered."

Lin Youran sighed slightly, looking at her junior sister whose cultivation level was already on par with hers, and couldn't help but feel a little discouraged.

It's not that the junior sister is progressing too fast, it's that she's not taking her cultivation seriously.

-

The next day.

To prevent these disciples from oversleeping and missing the registration deadline, Xu Xingzhi came to wake them up before Chen Shi (7-9 AM).

At 3:45 AM, a group of six people were already standing at the registration desk.

There were three lines of different lengths at the registration desk.

The registration for direct disciples and inner disciples of each sect is separate. In addition, there is a separate line for independent cultivators to register.

There weren't many people at the direct disciple registration area, but there were many at the other two registration areas.

After Shen Youqing and the others finished registering, they each had an exquisitely designed white token on their waist.

This token is extremely important; scores from every match are recorded on it, and losing it would be a huge hassle. The group who had registered found an open space to stand and await the upcoming chaotic battle in the secret realm.

at the same time.

"I saw that little bitch!" Zhang Xunyu's voice was low and fierce as she looked at Shen Youqing in the distance with angry eyes.

It was this little bitch who caused Qiu Luo to be imprisoned on the Cliff of Repentance, preventing her from attending the grand Five Sects Conference!
Damn!

Zhang Xunyu turned to the disciples beside her and said, "If we encounter her in the chaotic battle within the secret realm, we must kill her without holding back!"

Several disciples looked at Zhang Xunyu with somewhat troubled expressions.

Everything happening within the secret realm will be transmitted to the outside world through the water mirror. There is an ironclad rule at the Five Sects Conference: no one may kill a participant; violators will be disqualified.

"Wait!" Lin Youran narrowed her eyes, her voice suddenly rising, "Am I seeing things?"

How did she even see that little slut Shen Qiuluo?!
There were practically no one left to register for the direct disciple position, so Shen Qiuluo, dressed in a white dress, immediately attracted countless eyes when she appeared.

Shen Youqing looked over and saw Shen Qiuluo registering there, and couldn't help but narrow his eyes.

That shouldn't be the case. For the Sword Tomb riot, she should have been reflecting on her actions at the Cliff of Repentance for at least six months. How could she have been released after only a few months?

"What's going on?" Liang Shimu frowned slightly.

Isn't the Qingyu Sect the most upright and honest?

What's going on here?
Ruin his reputation?

The sect leaders on the high platform all looked at Zhang Youli.

Zhang Youli coldly stated, "The Shen family head's request is for Shen Qiuluo to attend the Five Sects Conference, and then return to continue her punishment."

Liu Xingchui looked at Zhang Youli with some incomprehension, "Your Qingyu Sect is known for its strict rules, how could you give in so easily?"

Zhang Youli spoke coldly, "The Shen family is very generous."

No sect would go against spirit stones, and the Azure Jade Sect is no exception.

Liu Xingchui: ...

Huayuan leaned back in his chair, propping his head up with his hand, his eyes slightly narrowed.

To be honest, given what Shen Qiuluo has done, the best course of action now is to keep her low-key for a while and wait for things to pass, rather than bringing her to the Five Sects Conference to show off.

Moreover, the Five Sects Assembly is crowded with people and eyes, and there is no guarantee that demonic cultivators might infiltrate.

She really couldn't quite understand this head of the Shen family.

It was an hour later when registration at the three locations was completed.

Under the elder's guidance, all participants began to draw lots.

Just before the secret realm opened, Zhang Youli's majestic and indifferent voice almost echoed throughout Yiming Mountain.

"Several months ago, my clansman Shen Qiuluo attempted to kill someone at the Sword Tomb of the Azure Dragon Sword Sect, deliberately causing the spiritual swords within the Sword Tomb to riot... It was the Shen family's intention to have her participate in the Five Sects Conference this time. During the Five Sects Conference, the elders of my sect's Punishment Hall will keep a close watch on her. After the Five Sects Conference ends, her time for reflection at the Cliff of Repentance will be extended by three months!"

Shen Qiulu never expected this to happen.

Family scandals should not be aired in public, and such matters are not respectable. The Qingyu Sect certainly cares about its reputation, so Zhang Youli would never openly discuss this matter.

Who would have thought that Zhang Youli would say such a thing so casually.

Amidst a multitude of gazes, Shen Qiuluo's face was as pale as paper.

Looking at Shen Qiuluo, who was as fragile as a porcelain doll, Zhang Xunyu's heartache was about to overflow.

Seeing his goddess being bullied like this, Deng Nan of the Changxing Sect couldn't hold back any longer. He shouted, "There was more than one person who caused the Spirit Sword Riot! Why doesn't the other person have to be punished?!"

"Is this what fairness and justice are, Qingyu Sect?!"

“This isn’t fair!!”

"If we're going to punish someone, we should all be punished together!!"
