Qi Refining Level 3000, Accepting The Empress As A Disciple At The Beginning

They glared fiercely at each other, throwing heavy punches, each blow landing with brutal force. Instantly, the arena was filled with screams, blood splattering, a truly gruesome sight.

It seemed they were not only merciless towards Li Fan but also towards their own.

Soon, only two disciples remained standing on the platform.

These two had been specially chosen by Elder Cheng Tian to deal with Li Fan, to take him down unexpectedly. Never did he imagine that they would end up killing each other.

The two men glared at each other with fierce eyes, surrounded by circles of dazzling light. Within the light, the two men fought shirtless, locked in a fierce battle.

In the end, they both fell off the stage in a mutual suicide.

The crowd looked at the scene on the stage, sighing with emotion.

Just when everyone thought it was over, the hands that were clutching desperately on the edge of the stage exerted strength. The body suspended in the air suddenly twitched, leaned back onto the stage, and crashed down heavily.

Li Fan grinned at Ye Kong.

Li Fan won this round.

The final match, the winner's contest against the senior disciples, was scheduled after all the group matches were completed.

There was still time.

Ye Kong quickly walked down from the stands and carried the battered Li Fan down. Chun Xiao and Qing Long also crowded around, asking about Li Fan's injuries.

Li Fan smiled at Ye Kong, "It seems that the method you gave me is indeed reliable."

Ye Kong felt a pang of pain. He didn't expect these people to really try to kill him!

Eight of Li Fan's ten fingers were bruised, his right pinky finger was broken in the middle, and each fingernail was ripped off, with blood and flesh oozing out completely. To bandage it, the fingernails would have to be flipped back and carefully bandaged.

It would be another agonizing reunion.

Fortunately, Li Fan had taken the medicine Ye Kong gave him and had already fallen asleep.

Chun Xiao helped while scolding the instigators, "They were clearly doing it on purpose. If you hadn't been there, Li Fan would have been tortured to death by them!"

Ye Kong was both angry and distressed. After bandaging him, he arranged for Chun Xiao and Qing Long to take Li Fan back to rest, while he went out for a while.

After a while, Tian Qi came to report, "Master, something bad has happened! Cheng Manor has been ravaged by a demonic wind. Your reception hall and several elders' bedrooms are all unrecognizable!"

Elder Cheng Tian looked at Ye Kong, who was leaving, cursed inwardly, and immediately gave instructions. Then, he looked at Ye Kong, who had returned, with a slight smile.

"It seems Ye Kong is quite busy, huh? He doesn't forget to do bad things even while watching the competition," Elder Cheng Tian said sarcastically.

"Naturally, I can't compare to Elder Cheng Tian, who arranges everything properly and flawlessly. I should learn from you," Ye Kong retorted mercilessly.

After a while, the disciples sent out by Elder Cheng Tian returned with dark faces and knelt at Elder Cheng Tian's feet.

"You bunch of bastards, what are you doing?"

"Master, there is a restriction set up in Qingliang Garden. As soon as we approached, we were thrown out and couldn't get close."

"A bunch of trash!" Elder Cheng Tian glared and blew his beard. "Get to Mount Xuan Yuan and receive your punishment!"

Ye Kong chimed in, "Elder Cheng Tian, don't be angry. If you want to go to Qingliang Garden, just say so. I'll take you there. Don't go the wrong way and suffer for nothing!"

Elder Cheng Tian snorted coldly and stopped talking.

The next few groups proceeded much more reasonably without Elder Cheng Tian's interference. They were all normal competitions, and the selected disciples eventually competed with the disciples of the main sect of the Tengyun Sect.

Li Fan was arranged to be the first group to play.

When Chun Xiao carried Li Fan over, she realized that the main sect disciple in front of them looked somewhat familiar.

Once they started fighting, Li Fan realized he was right. These disciples were the same people who had lived in the side room with him before, disciples under Sect Master Teng Renhuai.

Then this competition would be much easier. By the time Elder Cheng Tian reacted, Li Fan had already perfectly dealt with the two fellow disciples in front of him, reaching the standard to become a Tengyun Sect disciple.

Becoming an official disciple of the Tengyun Sect.

Elder Cheng Tian stood up directly and left without watching the remaining matches, filled with anger.

On Ye Kong's side, with Elder Cheng Tian leaving, he naturally wouldn't stay either, and left together.

On the way, as they passed the dining hall, they saw Elder Cheng Tian standing at the entrance, loudly scolding the disciple in front of him, "You're such a waste. If I had known, I would have let you fend for yourself. Let me tell you, if the dining hall isn't repaired, you won't be eating!"

The disciple in front of him nodded obsequiously and apologized repeatedly.

When Elder Cheng Tian and his entourage left, the disciple looked up and turned out to be Zhang Wen.

Unexpectedly, in just one day, he had gone from being the most beloved disciple to the most hated.

Zhang Wen also saw Ye Kong and the others. He strained to hold his head high, pretending to be aloof, snorted, and directed his subordinates to work while his peripheral vision constantly glanced this way.

"That's because he was too ambitious, so this is what he deserves. Besides, without a good master like Ye Kong, his days in Cheng Manor won't be easy," Chun Xiao said.

The result was naturally obvious.

This matter was put aside.

However, that night everyone noticed that Tuan Zhi was gone!

Everyone tacitly knew that Ye Kong had sent Tuan Zhi down the mountain and consciously stopped asking.

But Xiao Man and Yu Hai were completely unaware. Especially Xiao Man, who checked the numbers when he was interested every day, and found that another person was missing from the team!

"Where's Tuan Zhi?" Xiao Man asked.

"I don't know!" Everyone was busy training.

Xiao Man asked Ye Kong about it.

Ye Kong glanced at him, "If I said I didn't know, would you believe me?"

"Stop hiding it. I feel that this Tuan Zhi is fair-skinned and pretty. She shouldn't have done anything to displease you, right? You don't want her anymore?" Xiao Man helpfully analyzed.

"Is that so?" Ye Kong's mind conjured up Tuan Zhi's face, which was indeed memorable.

"However, as you asked, she has indeed gone down the mountain. She must have found a place more suitable for cultivation than the Tengyun Sect!" Ye Kong was telling the truth.

As time passed, everyone gradually accepted this fact.

This name, with her departure, became a thing of the past.

Although Li Fan being able to enter the Tengyun Sect was indeed something to be happy about, the price he paid for it was still very high. Every time his hands were re-bandaged, he had to endure excruciating pain.

Pain, it was too painful!

Under the pain, new flesh grew rampantly.

As Li Fan's fingers slowly recovered, Ye Kong's disciples were also well-trained and ready to be put to the test!

Ye Kong quickly arranged their first mission.

Since it was the first mission, Ye Kong would lead everyone to complete it together.

The night before yesterday, Teng Renhuai had specially sent Ye Kong a letter.

This letter came from Auspicious Town, a small town fifty kilometers from the Tengyun Sect. The letter stated that ferocious beasts appeared in Auspicious Town at night and pleaded for the Tengyun Sect to come to their aid.
