Chapter 3727: Hundred Sects Competition

Ye Bufan revealed a playful smile: "Young Master Han, what do you mean by that? Why are you looking for me when your Family members are missing?"

"Cut the crap!"

Han Lingkuang shouted angrily, "Where did you go yesterday?"

"Young Master Han is truly interested, even caring about where I go."

Ye Bufan said cheerfully, "My Lingyun Sword Sect hasn't seen much of the world, so we went around Yuangu City to look around. Is there anything wrong with that?"

"This…"

Han Lingkuang was somewhat speechless, then asked angrily, "Just tell me, where did Junior Brother Han Kuo and the others go?"

"Young Master Han, I don't understand what you're saying. Why are you asking me where your Han Family members went?"

Ye Bufan looked at him mockingly, "Could it be that because I bought those six immortal spirit grasses yesterday, your Han Family members followed me, hoping to snatch them back?

That's unlikely, isn't it? Although we're outside Yuangu City, we are still a Sect participating in the Hundred Sects Tournament.

The Han Family wouldn't attack us no matter what, would they?"

"You…"

Han Lingkuang's face was extremely grim. He had indeed sent Han Kuo to follow them, looking for an opportunity to eliminate Ye Bufan and the others.

But such things could only be done secretly; they couldn't be openly discussed, especially under the watchful eyes of everyone.

"Hey, Han, what are you doing? Are you bullying people again?"

As soon as she spoke, Qin Muyue, with her three sky-high ponytails, walked over.

"We're in the same group this time. Do you want to have a good match with me later?"

In this third group, the Qin Family and the Han Family, as seeded teams, were drawn together. However, Han Lingkuang didn't have the courage to fight with the little devil girl.

Although he was also considered a martial Dao Genius, he was only at the Immortal Lord Early Stage.

Qin Muyue, on the other hand, was a famous Immortal Lord Middle Stage, and could even break through to the Immortal Lord Late Stage at any time. The two were simply not on the same level.

"Fairy Qin, I was just asking a few questions. The competition is about to start, so I'll go back now if there's nothing else."

After saying that, he turned and ran, fleeing back to the Han Family's side.

As he left, Ye Bufan smiled slightly at Qin Muyue: "Thank you for your help, Fairy."

No matter what, this woman was quite righteous, and Ye Bufan had a good impression of her.

Qin Muyue, however, looked at him and pouted: "You're useless and unlucky, getting involved with that Han kid.

Fanqie

Stay away from him in the future, or you might easily lose your life."

Although Qin Muyue was a Prodigy, she was already five hundred years old and saw many things very clearly. She naturally knew what kind of person Han Lingkuang was.

"Don't worry, Fairy, I can handle it."

Although he was looked down upon, the other party's intentions were good, so Ye Bufan didn't take it to heart at all.

"Useless and arrogant, you'll have a tough time then."

Qin Muyue seemed very displeased that he didn't listen to her advice and turned to walk towards the Qin Family's side.

As soon as she left, Zhao Xingyun walked over with a few people from the Zhao Family.

"Kid, if you've got guts, fight me on stage later. Don't withdraw from the competition early, or I'll chase you all the way to Dile Heaven to settle the score."

In his mind, the Zhao Family's victory over the Lingyun Sword Sect was certain, without any suspense.

The only concern now was that Ye Bufan might flee without a fight, surrendering directly on the spot, which would deprive him of the opportunity to get his revenge.

Ye Bufan looked at him and smiled slightly: "Don't worry, I have a surprise for you later!"

Zhao Xingyun glared at him fiercely, snorted coldly, and led his group towards the Zhao Family's side.

As soon as they left, the group from the Four Directions Sword Sect walked over.

Jian Juechen's gaze was sharp: "Kid, it's your luck that you didn't draw my Four Directions Sword Sect. I hope you don't die too early!"

Ye Bufan waved at a few people: "Don't worry, we'll have a chance to fight!"

Ling Jianfeng had been by his side the whole time, feeling incredibly nervous.

His master had only been in the Middle Heaven Region for a few days, yet he had already provoked the Four Directions Sword Sect and the two Great Families, Zhao and Han.

Ye Bufan, however, didn't care at all. Cultivating immortals was not a smooth path; some difficulties had to be faced eventually.

As the start time approached, all the major Sects were in position.

The most eye-catching was the viewing platform. At this moment, people from the Three Sects, Five Factions, and Seven Great Families were already seated on the platform.

Each of these individuals possessed an extraordinary Aura. As the top forces in the Middle Heaven Region, they had dispatched at least Immortal Venerable level powerhouses today.

The first three seats were occupied by representatives from the Tiandao Sect, Guiyuan Sect, and Bixia Sect.

The Tiandao Sect was a Daoist Sect, and its Sect Master, Wuwei Daojun, did not personally attend. Instead, he sent Grand Elder Wu Huo Daojun.

The old Daoist had long since turned white-haired, wore an Eight Trigrams cloth robe, and had a long sword stuck behind his back, appearing ethereal with Immortal Qi.

To his left was the Guiyuan Sect, whose representative was also the Sect's Grand Elder, Ouyang Pingjiang, a thin old man with surprisingly sharp eyes.

The last one was Grand Elder Fairy Chixia of the Bixia Sect, an extremely beautiful middle-aged woman, but her Aura was too cold, giving off a feeling of 'do not approach strangers.'

The next five seats were for the Five Factions, including the Four Directions Sword Sect, followed by the Seven Great Families. Those attending were all influential powerhouses within their respective Families.

"Alright, everyone, please quiet down."

As the hour arrived, Wu Huo Daojun stepped onto the stage above the arena, looking down at the crowd below.

His voice was calm, yet it clearly reached every corner, and at the same time, it gave people a sense of tranquility and naturalness.

As soon as he spoke, the crowd instantly fell silent.

Facing the Grand Elder of the Tiandao Sect, an Immortal Venerable level powerhouse, everyone looked up with eyes full of admiration and respect.

"Entrusted by everyone, this Hundred Sects Tournament will be presided over by this old Daoist.

At the same time, three notaries have been selected: Fairy Chixia of the Bixia Sect, Elder Ouyang of the Guiyuan Sect, and myself.

Should any difficult decisions arise during the competition, our three final judgments will prevail."

The Tiandao Sect was originally one of the top Sects in the Middle Heaven Region, and coupled with its consistently fair conduct, it was highly respected by everyone.

As soon as Wu Huo Daojun finished speaking, thunderous applause immediately erupted, indicating that everyone had no objections to these three notaries.

"Alright, I have already explained the previous rules to the heads of each Sect. Now, I will only emphasize three points.

First, once on the arena, there are no rules. Whatever means or methods you use, the one who ultimately remains on the arena is the victor.

Second, each major battle concludes when only two Sects remain on the stage.

Finally, this is merely a competition, not a battle to the death. Try your best not to take lives.

Even if you can't control yourself and take a life, you must not harm the Primordial Spirit.

Alright, the group draws are complete. The competition will now begin directly."

Wuwei Daojun appeared extremely calm, but his actions were swift and decisive. Under his guidance, the first major battle quickly began.

Figures flickered, and fifty participating Disciples leaped onto the arena.

In this first group, the seeded teams were the Bixia Sect, one of the Three Sects, and the Qi Family, one of the Seven Great Families.

The tactics of these large Sects were basically the same: they all sent one Immortal Venerable level powerhouse to oversee, while the remaining four Disciples were all Immortal King Peak.

Slightly different was the Bixia Sect, where all five on stage were female Disciples, and each was stunningly beautiful.

The Qi Family, on the other hand, consisted entirely of male Disciples. As scions of a Great Family, they also appeared heroic and exuded a formidable Aura.

As the two seeded teams stood there, the remaining eight Sects were filled with despair. The disparity in strength was simply too great, leaving no suspense whatsoever.

And so it was. The battle almost ended as soon as it began, with the Bixia Sect and the Qi Family ultimately securing their progression from the group.
