Chapter 521 Sect sparring

Chapter 521 Sect sparring

The day after they finished choosing their disciples, the members of the Love Sect had to entertain the guests from the various sects that came.

This sect recruitment that they held this time also doubled as a sect opening.

This was their chance to announce the revival of the Love Sect to everyone, as well as showing off the power of the Love Sect to all who came.

So this was an event that was just as important as the sect recruitment.

After all, this was what determined how the other sects would treat them in the future.

They had to show that the Love Sect was not a sect that they could mess with.

The best way to show that off was with a sect sparring.

They would first hold a spar between the disciples of the Love Sect before opening it up to the guests. The guests would be allowed to challenge the disciples of the Love Sect to a sparring duel.

This was the best way for them to demonstrate how strong the Love Sect really was.

The kids that they had taken as disciples back then had already grown up and were ready to fight the disciples of the other sects.

So when the sun rose, everyone gathered at the Love Sect's main building where the sparring arenas were.

There were plenty of seats that had been constructed during this time, so there was plenty of space for people to watch from.

The Love Sect not only welcomed guests, but they also opened up this sparring session to the people of the town.

This was a two fold plan.

One was to show the power of the Love Sect since there was nothing that spread better than word of mouth…or at least that was the case in this technologically challenged world.

Second, it was to inspire more people to join the Love Sect since they would always take more talented people.

When Lin Fan and the elders arrived, they found that the stands were already filled with people. There were many people that had even come early in the morning just so they could find a place to sit even though the sparring wouldn't begin until midday.

Now that they were here, Lin Fan stood up from the sect master's seat to say, "Thank you everyone for joining us today for our sect's sparring session. I hope that we will be able to live up to the expectations that everyone has of us. At the same time, I hope that we will be able to show everyone something new today."

The spectators that came to watch all applauded this, but there was a clear difference in enthusiasm between certain people.

The ones that were more excited were those that had just come to watch the fun.

The ones that were less excited were those from the different sects that were waiting to see just how powerful the Love Sect's disciples were.

They had the job of deciding how they would treat the Love Sect in the future, so they had to make sure that they had an accurate judgement of the Love Sect's strength.

After Lin Fan had finished speaking, he once again handed matters over to Senior Brother Ying.

His one job was just to be present as the sect master of the Love Sect, he didn't really have to do anything to manage the sect sparring. After all, when did a sect master personally handle affairs when there were elders to the sect?

Senior Brother Ying not only acted as the master of ceremonies, he also personally acted as the judge.

This was one part to show that everything was fair while also making sure that no one could play tricks like the other day.

The judge was supposed to be one of the other elders, but they changed it because of the assassination attempt that had happened.

If they allowed such a thing to happen again, there was no doubt that the Love Sect would lose all of their prestige.

So Senior Brother Ying was stepping up.

The first few fights were just average fights between the lower ranked disciples of the Love Sect. These were fights that were meant as nothing more than an appetizer for the real fights that would follow.

To the guests from the other sects, these fights weren't that special since they were just fights between those in the Qi Gathering Realm.

But for the spectators from the town, their eyes lit up since for most of them, it was their first time seeing this kind of cultivator battle.

So for them, they couldn't help being dazzled by the various techniques that were used by our disciples even if they were the most ordinary techniques.

There wasn't much to see here and it didn't take long before they finished their fights.

Once that was done, it was finally time for the main dish.

It was time for the disciples of the elders to fight.

These were the disciples that had been recruited back when they had first formed the Love Sect. These were the disciples that had been recruited from the first batch of orphans that they had brought to the Love Sect.

After several months of cultivating, they had finally become powerful cultivators in their own right even if they were still in the Qi Gathering Realm.

The one that came up first was Xiao Tian, the chubby little boy that Senior Brother Ying had taken as a disciple.

He was one of the first ones taken in as a disciple of an elder and he had been training for the longest time, but he also still looked like a chubby little boy. He was completely different from Tie Yong, the tall and strict looking young man that Senior Brother Ying had just accepted as a disciple.

If one didn't know better, they would have confused the two.

They would have thought that Xiao Tian was the junior brother and Tie Yong was the senior brother.

But Xiao Tian wasn't the same chubby little boy as before.

He had worked hard on his cultivation and had already reached the Peak of the Qi Gathering Realm. He was only a single step away from breaking through to the Foundation Realm.

Not to mention, there was a sharpness to him that wasn't normal.

It was as if one would be cut just by getting too close to him.

His opponent was one of the inner sect Foundation Realm disciples.

This was one of the disciples that had been brought over from the Hidden Dragon Sect.

He was talented, but he wasn't talented enough that an elder wanted him as a disciple, so he was thrown into the inner sect.

A Foundation Realm Cultivator versus someone in the Peak Qi Gathering Realm, one might think that this wasn't a fight that the Qi Gathering Realm Cultivator would be able to win, but…

After the two of them clashed, it turned out that Xiao Tian had the advantage.

Xiao Tian had a special sword spirit root and comprehension for swords, so he had taken to sword cultivation like a fish in water.

As soon as he started cultivating with the sword, his cultivation had soared and his understanding of the sword deepened.

So each slash that he made with his sword was filled with power that he shouldn't have been able to release in his realm.

So even though he was facing someone in a higher realm, he was still able to push him back.

Each attack from Xiao Tian had a sharpness that the Foundation Realm inner sect disciple just couldn't resist.

In the end, Xiao Tian pushed him all the way to the edge and the Foundation Realm inner sect disciple had no choice but to surrender.

This was a friendly spar, so of course they wouldn't take it too far.

Xiao Tian cupped his hands with a smile and said, "Thank you for letting me win senior brother."

The Foundation Realm inner sect disciple also cupped his hands and gave a respectful bow.

The Love Sect was quite harmonious in this sense where no one really hated each other.

There were some people that irritated each other, but that was only natural in a large sect like this.

There was no life and death grudge, which should have been common in sects like this.

That was just how well managed the Love Sect was.

After Xiao Tian, the other elder disciples also made their moves.

It wasn't just the disciples of the senior brothers and sisters from the Love Sect, but also the disciples of the Hidden Dragon Sect elders.

After the Hidden Dragon Sect had been brought to the Love Sect, everyone had come along.

The ones that had been the disciples of the Hidden Dragon Sect elders remained their disciples, so they were considered some of the strongest in the sect.

As they watched these elder disciples, the guests from the other sects had to admit that they were strong.

However, there were also looks on their faces that didn't seem like they were convinced.

That was because there was still another part of this sparring that they were waiting for.

After all of the disciples had a chance to spar, Senior Brother Ying suddenly came forward onto the stage and said, "We would now like to invite our guests to join in the sparring. I'm sure that all of you are curious about the strength of the Love Sect, so we do not mind showing you that strength."

He hadn't minced words at all.

It was almost as if Senior Brother Ying was saying…

"Bring it on."
