nProfound South Sect had six more residential regions for inner disciples compared to Blue Moon Sect. Each region still had the upper limit of three hundred disciples, and only the top ten most powerful people of each region could participate in the battle.

nSoon, an important figure of Profound South Sect announced the rewards for particular positions obtained in the inner sect battle, following the conventions of previous years.

nThere were three hundred and sixty people participating in the battle in total, but the sect provided rewards only for the first thirty positions.

nThe first place would be rewarded with thirty thousand contribution points.

nSecond place would receive twenty thousand contribution points.

nThird place would receive ten thousand contribution points.

nFourth to tenth place would receive five thousand contribution points each.

nEleventh to twentieth place would receive three thousand contribution points each.

nTwenty-first to thirtieth place would receive one thousand contribution points each.

n…

nMost of the elite disciples of the sect were happy as long as they entered the first twenty places, since then they would obtain ten flux binding pills. After that, as long as their physical strength crossed the threshold, they could already be considered as half a step into the great flux expert realm with the large amount of contribution points at their disposal.

nThis was an opportunity which Li Yunmu couldn’t miss. His reserves of contribution points had been depleting quickly. If he couldn’t ensure a continuous supply of flux binding pills for opening the remaining twenty flux points, it would take him a long time to reach the great circle by relying on absorbing the flux energy scattered in the world. Thus, his gaze was on the first prize.

nSoon, the inner sect battles began.

nThe inner sect battles of the Origin World were also known as tier jumping battles.

nWhy were they called battles and not competition? The answer was very simple.

nBecause the ruthlessness and cruelty of those battles far surpassed any martial competition and was similar to what could be seen in real wars. Unless one was completely certain that they could deal with the enemy easily, they should admit defeat. Otherwise, they would be crushed or could even get killed in the next battle. The reason behind this sort of savage battle was probably the enormous amount of cultivators in the Origin World.

nTen elevated stages had been built long ago by Profound South Sect. The point worth mentioning was the material used to create them, which were the ocean rocks from the deep sea region. They had born the enormous pressure several thousand meters under the surface for several years and were extremely sturdy.

nEven if a great flux expert launched an attack with their full strength, it would be very difficult to break the stage built using more than ten ocean rocks.

nSoon, the upper echelons of Profound South Sect began to pull out lottery tickets and called participants for each stage. In no time, Li Yunmu’s name was pulled out for the seventh stage.

n“Brother Qingyang, be a little careful. Your opponent is Sinister Fiend Tiger, and he is very powerful. He is ranked fifth in the third residential region, and he’s been preparing for two years for this tier jumping battle.”

nLu Tingting who stood behind him quickly supplied some information about his opponent. But Li Yunmu didn’t hesitate and leaped onto the seventh stage.

n“Hey, you’re twenty first residential region’s first ranked Lin Qingyang? I’m sorry but your luck ran out the moment you encountered me. Even if the daughter of the sect master fancies you, accept your death now.”

nSinister Fiend Tiger was as sinister and ruthless as his name. The moment after trash talking, he fiercely stamped his leg on the ground and rushed toward Li Yunmu. Without any preamble, he launched a fist toward Li Yunmu’s vital part.

nThe system had already scanned Sinister Fiend Tiger’s strength by then. His flux energy strength was around one hundred and sixty-seven points while his physical strength was forty-nine oxen. From this, it seemed that on the basis of strength, Profound South Sect was somewhat more powerful than Blue Moon Sect, even if both of them were third tier sects.

nThe man’s flux energy strength of one hundred and sixty-seven points was extremely close to the upper limit of one hundred and eighty points. Sinister Fiend Tiger probably still had to open three or four flux points.

nHis fist utilized an extremely high level explosive fist technique. It used an enormous amount of physical strength and turned it into momentum, after which flux energy was used to increase the explosiveness of the attack.

nThis attack’s explosive might definitely far surpassed the physical or flux energy strength of Sinister Fiend Tiger by several folds. It thus was the reason why Li Yunmu’s absolute defense lost its effectiveness in front of flux experts.

nThe flux experts of the Origin World combined their flux energy and explosive physical strength to attack, which far surpassed the defensive capability of an opponent on the same level. Fluxers relied only on their flux energy to attack, which although wasn’t weak but definitely didn’t have the sort of explosive character that flux experts gained from combining physical strength and flux energy to attack.

nThis sort of combined attack far surpassed their body’s resisting ability. Offensive strength far surpassed any defenses, and it was the main characteristic of the flux experts of the Origin World.

nAs a result, it wasn’t rare for late stage or even peak stage flux experts to be accidentally killed by mid stage flux experts. The reason behind it was that the instant a fight began between a mid stage flux expert and a late stage flux expert, the mid stage flux expert would instantly erupt with an explosive attack which could kill a late stage flux expert easily.

nHowever, Li Yunmu had decided to break this convention. He indifferently looked at Sinister Fiend Tiger, and when the terrifying fist arrived, he didn’t dodge or avoid it, but instead remained standing motionlessly like a deer in front of headlights.

nBang!

nIt was the sound of an enormous power crashing directly against flesh and bone.

nWithout moving, Li Yunmu said just two words, “Too weak.”

n“Impossible.”

nSinister Fiend Tiger fiercely shook his head and began to frantically attack Li Yunmu. One fist after another heavily smashed against his body.

nBang, bang, bang, bang.

nThe sounds of fists hitting flesh filled the entire plaza.

n“Who is he? Our Eight God Sect wants him.”

nAfter seeing Li Yunmu smash the common knowledge about the same realm’s defense, an elder of a second tier sect immediately stood up. Without thinking much, he instantly declared the intention of the Eight God Sect whom he represented.

nHis words were like thunderbolts on the ears of several tens of thousand of spectators. Since the time they had entered the sect, they had never seen a second tier sect willing to take in a person like that.

nHowever, once the elder of Eight God Sect opened his mouth, an even more outrageous affair happened behind the stage. The representatives of other second tier powers also simultaneously spoke up.

n“This person, I want.”

n“I want.”

n“My Thousand Underworld Sect also wants.”

n“My Dragon Mountain also wants him.”
