“Fairy Su, how do you plan to determine the rankings of the sects?”

“Follow the usual practice. Among the younger generation of Elders, select one who has less than eight hundred, five hundred, and three hundred years of cultivation respectively, for a best two out of three matches.”

“Agreed.”

The Sect Leaders of the six major Orthodox Sects consented to the Fairy Pavilion Master’s suggestion.

The six Sect Leaders drew lots to decide their respective opponents.

Mount Shu’s opponent would be Hidden Dragon Temple, Immeasurable Temple would face Inquiry Immortal Pavilion, and Martial Alliance would go against the Refinement Sect.

“The luck of Martial Alliance is truly good. Those from the Refinement Sect are obsessed with refining tools, so their cultivation is inevitably lacking, consistently ranking last among the six major Orthodox Sects. Martial Alliance will surely advance.”

“Our Mount Shu is also lucky, our opponent is only Hidden Dragon Temple, ranked fourth.”

“Don’t underestimate Hidden Dragon Temple. They are adept at strategies and Dao Arrays, often turning decay into magic. Moreover, the rankings of the six major Orthodox Sects have been the same for a thousand years now.”

“Immeasurable Temple is ranked second, Inquiry Immortal Pavilion is in trouble.”

Once the results of the draw came out, many Elders of Mount Shu discussed it privately.

Every Six Dao Conference, the six major Orthodox Sects would be ranked anew. It had been fifteen hundred years since the last ranking, and the strength of each sect had changed.

“Taiyuan, which three disciples do you plan to send into battle?”

The Fairy Pavilion Master asked in a cool tone.

“Changye, Wuchuan, and Longevity, you three will represent our Mount Shu in the contest.”

Grandmaster Taiyuan selected from among the Elders of Mount Shu—Li Changye, who had five hundred years of cultivation, Song Wuchuan with four hundred and fifty, and Lu Changsheng with two hundred and fifty.

“Li Changye and Song Wuchuan, these two Mount Shu Elders, were within my predictions, but what’s the deal with this Lu Changsheng?”

The Fairy Pavilion Master frowned slightly, not understanding why Grandmaster Taiyuan would choose an Elder in the first tier of the Dao Palace realm to fight.

Mount Shu had Elders with three hundred years of cultivation who were in the second and third tiers of the Dao Palace realm; it wasn’t as though there were none.

“Sect Leader chose Lu?”

“It has only been five years since Lu entered the Dao Palace realm. Isn’t it a bit forced for him to represent Mount Shu in combat now?”

“If this is the Sect Leader’s intention, there must be a deeper meaning.”

“It’s a pity that I, Zhao Wuyan, having cultivated for three hundred and twenty years at Mount Shu, fall between the ranks. If only I were twenty years younger, I could have taken Lu’s place in combat. Lu, Sect Leader and Master see potential in you, so you must perform well.”

The Elders of Mount Shu were in an uproar, clearly finding Grandmaster Taiyuan’s third choice unbelievable.

Li Changye, the eldest disciple, with five hundred years of cultivation, Dao Palace realm level nine.

Song Wuchuan, the second eldest disciple, with four hundred and fifty years of cultivation, Dao Palace realm level eight.

Lu Changsheng, the youngest disciple, with two hundred and fifty years of cultivation, Dao Palace realm level one.

No matter how one looked at it, Lu Changsheng appeared to be the weakest link.

Among the Mount Shu Elders with Dao age within three hundred years, besides the direct disciples of Grandmaster Taiyuan, there were also some disciples of the Supreme Elders. Their cultivation might not necessarily be lower than Lu Changsheng’s.

Yet Grandmaster Taiyuan elected to have Lu Changsheng fight.

Many Mount Shu Elders were sweating bullets for Lu Changsheng.

If the eldest and second eldest disciple failed to win, Lu Changsheng could very well become the scapegoat.

Of course, if they knew that Lu Changsheng’s actual cultivation was already at the fifth level of the Dao Palace realm, they would have no need to worry.

“Lu Changsheng? So if we, Inquiry Immortal Pavilion, face Mount Shu, he will be my opponent…”

Xia Ningxue’s gaze fell on Lu Changsheng once more, also quite surprised that Mount Shu would let Lu Changsheng fight.

Five years ago, when the two first met, Lu Changsheng’s cultivation at the brink of life and death was the first layer of the Dao Palace realm, without any doubt.

But now, Lu Changsheng’s aura seems somewhat elusive.

Due to his Innate Taoist Body, no one present could see through Lu Changsheng’s true cultivation level.

“Our Hidden Dragon Temple will send out Elders Zhuge Changming, Jiang Feng, and Liu Xunxian to fight,”

Temple Master Yu Xuanjiof the Hidden Dragon Temple, following the rules, dispatched three Elders.

“Zhuge Changming, the foremost disciple of Hidden Dragon Temple, has cultivated for seven hundred years, his cultivation is on par with our eldest senior brother, both at the ninth layer of the Dao Palace realm, and even has more combat experience. It seems a fierce battle is inevitable,”

“As long as our eldest senior brother and second senior brother win, Lu doesn’t even need to make a move for Mount Shu to be victorious.”

“That’s right, I believe our eldest and second senior brothers can handle their opponents.”

“Lu, you just relax,”

“The Sect Leader’s intention is most likely for our eldest and second senior brothers to defeat their opponents, and as for the third person, there’s no need to fight, so it doesn’t matter who it is.”

“Itmust be so,”

Most of the Mount Shu Elders deduced the intentions of the Taiyuan Real Person, believing that he had absolute confidence in the eldest and second senior brothers.

In the competition among the six Orthodox Sects, victory in three out of five rounds is sufficient.

If the eldest and second senior brothers win, Lu Changsheng doesn’t need to fight.

However, Li Changye felt not as relaxed as the many Elders of Mount Shu; he knew that the Sect Leader selecting Lu Changsheng as the third combatant wasn’t because of the absolute certainty of victory from the first two, but because amidst all the elders of Mount Shu, Lu Changsheng, with less than three hundred years of cultivation, had the highest level of cultivation!

“Taiyuan, I have never seen this disciple of yours,”

“I hear he is the last disciple you took on.”

“I can’t even discern his true level of cultivation.”

Grandmaster Chen, Master Wuxiang, and other Sect Leaders started to take Mount Shu’s Lu Changsheng seriously.

Based on what they knew about Taiyuan Real Person, he wouldn’t send an insignificant Elder to fight.

The Taiyuan Real Person just smiled faintly, without offering further explanation.

“Regardless of who your disciple is, he will not be a match for mine. Taiyuan, my disciple’s talent is even above yours,”

The Fairy Pavilion Master of Inquiry Immortal Pavilion, with a cold expression, had full confidence in her junior disciple Xia Ningxue.

Xia Ningxue’s speed of cultivation was astonishingly fast, shocking even the Fairy Pavilion Master herself.

Xia Ningxue was her trump card to humiliate Mount Shu.

The Martial Arts Platform for the great event of the six paths was maintained by the Sect Leaders of the six Orthodox Sects. Even prodigies of the Dao Palace realm fighting within could hardly damage the platform.

The three pairs of Elders from Mount Shu and Hidden Dragon Temple confronted each other first.

The first to fight for Mount Shu was the eldest senior brother, Li Changye, and for Hidden Dragon Temple, Zhuge Changming, the favored disciple of Yu Xuanji.

Both were exceptional prodigies among the younger generation of Elders in the six Orthodox Sects, the future pillars of their respective sects.

Once the two stepped onto the Martial Arts Platform, they immediately attracted everyone’s attention.

“Zhuge Changming, the foremost disciple of Hidden Dragon Temple, like the Temple Master, excels in divination and strategic calculation. He once lured and killed five Demon Sect Elders of the Dao Palace realm in an unknown Immortal Ruins, thus becoming widely renowned overnight,”

“With eldest senior brother facing Zhuge Changming, I wonder what his chances of victory are?”

“Ten parts,”

Second senior brother Song Wuchuan suddenly spoke up, silencing the multitude of Mount Shu Elders.

Song Wuchuan turned and smiled, “I might lose, but in the Dao Palace realm, our eldest senior brother is invincible.”
