Dimension Paradise, I am a summoning apostle

Chapter 497 Disputes Arise at the Mountain Gate

"It seems our Tianxing camp has won this time." Fei Hong's face showed joy.

As the leader of the Xuanjian Adventure Team, Fei Hong spent a lot of money to bring her members into this trial world to participate in the Three Talents Sect's competition.

This competition not only features various teams and factions, but also a group of lone wolf apostles.

The main difference is that the output is quite unique, with most of the resources being martial arts-themed sword techniques.

For example, the two basic skills, melee basics and swordsmanship basics, in the faction shop made Fei Hong extremely envious.

There's only one copy available; whoever from the three factions exchanges it first will have it all.

Unfortunately, with the faction points he has accumulated so far, he won't be able to exchange them for even one by the end of this martial arts tournament.

He has the most points right now, so he can't exchange them, and no one else can either.

With his current points, he might have a chance to exchange for the Brilliant-level Inherited Skill, the Three Talents Sword Manual, which ranks third.

The premise is that he cannot lose any more games and must win first place.

This is indeed difficult. In the Three Talents Sect, there are three opponents of equal strength in the other terrain and human killing factions, and even in his own Heavenly Path faction, there are two equally matched opponents.

There can only be one first place, and everyone wants the faction points.

The current alliance is only temporary; once the spoils are divided, they'll definitely turn on each other.

The competition mode has been changed to a versus mode.

Suddenly, a notification from the amusement park appeared, causing Fei Hong's expression to change.

"what's the situation?"

[Please note: The faction of all members of the Xuanjian Adventurer Group has been changed from the Tianxing Clan of the Three Talents Sect to the Three Talents Sect.]

"Not good!" Upon seeing this notification, Fei Hong understood that the balance of the three major factions of the Three Talents Sect had been disrupted.

In order to counter the more powerful apostles, the apostles, who were originally divided into three factions, were balanced in Paradise.

[Combat Mission: 24-Hour Defense of the Three Talents Sect]

[Successful Contest: Faction Points x10000]

[Defeat in battle: All faction points are cleared]

(Note: After a successful or unsuccessful confrontation, the Three Talents Faction still exists and suffers minimal losses, then returns to competitive mode to continue the duel.)

(Note: Killing the opponent will always drop a Bloodstained Treasure Chest with 10 layers of Blood Pattern)
"It's over, it's over!" Fei Hong never expected that the competition mode would turn into a confrontation mode.

A group of people, evenly matched, engaged in a back-and-forth competition.

When an outsider disrupts the balance, they need everyone to fight back.

[Faction Channel]

[Linghu: @Everyone, what's going on? Why has the faction changed to the Three Talents Faction?]

[Feihong: There's a formidable enemy. Everyone must join forces, or we'll all lose everything this time.]

[Embroidered Mandarin Ducks: Found it, it's an apostle who just entered the mountain gate, seems to be a summoner.]

[Linghu: @Feihong, gather together? Don't betray us when we're all here]

[Feihong: @Linghu, you fucking idiot! Didn't you see the combat mission? What are you up to now? If you don't want to fight, then get lost.]

[Embroidered Mandarin Ducks: Those willing to take on the mission should go to the Sword Testing Ground. That person is very strong; only by combining everyone's efforts can we have a chance of winning.]

[Feihong: Okay, I'll take everyone there right away]

Fei Hong didn't even need to summon anyone, because many members had already arrived ahead of time due to the change in the trial mode.

"Boss, is something bad going to happen? Should we retreat?" a member of the adventure team said worriedly. "No wonder it's a high-difficulty mission; even this kind of unexpected event has occurred."

"Probably not, there's no direct conflict of interest with us." Fei Hong paused after saying that, then added, "Let's use all our faction points first, or we'll lose a lot of money if they get wiped out later."

"As for the combat mission, don't overthink it. We'll play it by ear. At worst, we'll just have to be defeated quickly. The enemy won't kill us."

"After all, they are all apostles, so they are unlikely to kill their own people."

Fei Hong hasn't even managed to gather 10,000 faction points yet, but now that they've won, everyone gets 10,000.

The fact that 10,000 faction points can be exchanged for the Brilliant-level Inheritance Skill Three Talents Sword Manual is enough to show its value.

Not to mention there's also a bloody treasure chest with 10 layers of blood patterns.

Treasure chests of this caliber are simply beyond their reach.

This means the park doesn't think they have a good chance of winning, which is why they're offering such a high reward.

Fortunately, the park had penalties for failure; otherwise, Fei Hong would have immediately led the entire team to evacuate.

The heavier the punishment for such a task, the less dangerous it is.

For the apostles of the Three Talents Sect Grand Competition, having their faction points wiped out was already a very severe punishment.

Since we can't win, to avoid wasting our points, we naturally choose to redeem them.

With his words, the group immediately took action and spent all their faction points on the spot.

They weren't the only ones doing this; most teams opted for risk hedging to minimize losses.

However, some apostles felt unwilling to give up and thought they should take a gamble, so they did not spend their points.

All the apostles in the Three Talents Sect are here for this martial arts competition.

Everyone entered using consumables.

The same applies to teams, except they use a different kind of consumable; they bring the entire team in with them.

"Let's go, let's gather." Fei Hong led the members and set off, saying on the way, "Remember to watch the team channel later. If I say I'll run, I'll run; if I say I'll fight, I'll fight. Don't hesitate to make everyone kneel down."

"Survival is more important than anything else."

Although it was a bit pathetic, it was precisely because of Fei Hong's suggestions that the Xuanjian Adventure Team was able to advance from the reserve level to the second tier without any members dying.

Of course, if pushed too far, they will fight desperately, and they have done so several times. All of this was for high-difficulty missions like those at the A-level, for which they have also gained considerable benefits.
-
You have entered the competitive mode area; you are being assigned to an opposing faction.

As soon as Chu Danqing stepped into the Sancai Sect's territory, a notification from the Paradise appeared.

[Your overall rating has been detected as severely disrupting the faction balance; the competition mode has been changed to a versus mode.]

You have been categorized as the one being opposed.

[Combat Mission: 24-Hour Battle to Destroy the Three Talents Faction]

[Successful Confrontation: Brilliant-Level Inherited Skill (Limited - Three Talents Sect)]

[Defeat in the confrontation: None]

(Note: There is a 1% chance that a Bloodstained Chest will drop when you kill an enemy Apostle.)
"Ah, this." Chu Danqing was speechless for a moment when he saw the new combat mission.

This task feels like taking off your pants to fart.

"So I'm like a shark that's entered a small fishpond and has become a fish fryer." Chu Danqing's overwhelming strength has caused the original competition to become unfair.

Therefore, the rewards he can receive are relatively fixed.

Otherwise, if it were a competitive mode, there would definitely be a faction shop, and it might even include basic skills.

With his strength, he could easily take them all on.

He has a good understanding of his own abilities.

Only a pure team composition from the top ten in the arena can kill him.

For example, the assassin apostle who was ranked 10th back then had to sacrifice most of his body to achieve a fatal blow.

It's only in the arena that the opponent would dare to use it like that.

"What kind of fried fish?" Li Qingying asked curiously as she leaned closer. "And what kind of fish is a shark?"

“Fish frying is bullying the small by the big. Shark is a kind of sea fish called shark.” Chu Danqing replied, “Shark has sandy skin with interlocking patterns, hence its various names.”

Li Qingying really liked these novel words, such as "wocao," which she learned from Chu Danqing.

"I do know a thing or two about this, it comes from..." Duan Baiyu explained it much more clearly than Chu Danqing, giving a clear account of the shark's origin.

“Yes, that’s it,” Chu Danqing replied.

Before long, the group arrived at the Sancai Sect.

Upon entering, one could see a plaza called the Sword Testing Ground, where there were quite a few people.

Chu Danqing glanced at them and confirmed that these people were dimensional apostles.

The competitive mode has turned into a confrontational mode. Chu Danqing is the one being confronted, so there must also be opponents.

"Who among you is the leader of the Sancai Sect?" Chu Danqing asked first.

Whether or not there is confrontation is actually irrelevant. Most of these apostles are only at a low level of strength, with only a few possessing mid-level strength.

Moreover, the number is not large, only nine people in total.

Preliminary estimates suggest that there are three people in one faction within the Three Talents School.

"Sect Leader?" Fei Hong was also dumbfounded: "You came up the mountain to find the Sect Leader?"

He thought they were about to start a fight.

“Yes, if the sect leader isn’t here, we can have the person in charge come out,” Chu Danqing said.

Fei Hong turned around and looked at the other apostles.

“The Three Talents Sect has no leader.” An aged voice rang out, followed by a white shadow that swept past. An old man stepped forward: “I am Huo Feng, the master of the Heavenly Path Clan.”

"What brings you here?" Huo Feng asked.

He noticed that the disciples of the three lineages had suddenly gathered at the sword-testing arena, and thinking something had happened, he rushed over to check.

While there is indeed internal discord within the Sancai School, this is an internal matter. When it comes to outsiders, they are all united against them.

"Oh, so this is what happened," Chu Danqing said, "My friend..."

Chu Danqing explained the whole story and then said, "I'm here to demand an explanation from you."

Upon hearing this, Huo Feng, the master of the Heavenly Path Clan, turned red and then pale.

"Nonsense! Our Sancai Sect is a reputable and righteous sect. How could we possibly do such a despicable thing!" Huo Feng immediately retorted.

As he said this, the two leaders of the Earthly Branch and the Human Killing Branch also arrived. Upon hearing this, their expressions were not good.

You actually said this in public, don't the Three Talents School have any shame?
For the sake of the sect's reputation, we have no choice but to kill them to silence them today.

As for calling this a demonic act? For the sake of the sect, we can only make these four suffer.

At worst, we'll give them a proper burial after we die.

As for those who tarnished the sect's reputation, they will deal with them afterward.

For the three lineage leaders of the Three Talents School, even if there was a mistake in this matter, it was not up to outsiders to handle it.

What they were unhappy about was that the elder and his disciple had failed to kill a scholar who had never practiced martial arts; they were utterly useless.

"You bastard! How could my Three Talents Sect allow you, a heretic and evil cultist, to slander us?" The leader of the Human Killing Clan immediately shouted angrily and drew his sword.

"You deliberately humiliated me during the Three Talents Sect's Three Lineages Grand Competition. Do you think my Three Talents Sect has no one to rely on?" The leader of the Earthly Branch Lineage followed suit and spoke up.

"Elders and disciples, draw your swords and slay this wicked beast to uphold the name of our Three Talents Sect!" Tianxing Mai Master shouted upon seeing this.

Subsequently, all the native disciples of the Sancai Sect rushed over and surrounded Chu Danqing and his three companions.

The dimensional apostles who came to participate in the competition all showed joy on their faces.

It was a complete turn of events; I thought we were going to lose.

With the three lineage leaders and sect experts joining forces, this mission is a sure thing!
