C180 New Tasks

"You don't know?" This time, it was Great Sect Master's turn to be surprised. He originally thought that all the disciples knew about this.

Nie Zhen said helplessly, "Master only said that there would be a chance, but he did not say it in detail. I just found out about this half a year's time."

Great Sect Master was surprised, then laughed: "Hahaha... This number two, well said! "

Immediately, Great Sect Master nodded his head, and said to Nie Zhen: "When all disciples gather tomorrow for this matter, this sect master will publicly announce it, but since it has already come to this point, this sect leader can tell you in advance. Half a year later, there will be a twenty-year session of Three Sects exchange, and these three sects will naturally be my Duobao Sect, as well as my Ice River Valley. In this Three Sects exchange competition, every twenty years, the three sects will send their strongest disciples to participate, and the disciples that we will bid for this time will naturally be you ten. However, before the exchange competition arrives, this sect leader wants to give you guys a mission, which can be considered to be to give you guys a bit more experience before the exchange competition. "

Nie Zhen nodded and waited for Great Sect Master to continue.

"Earlier on, I received a report from Elder Tianhuo, saying that the two herb picking boys he sent to Moshi Mountain Range had completely disappeared, and are already dead. Although this doesn't seem to be a big deal, the meaning of Moshi Mountain Range is different, because that place has always been a controversial area. Both sides have always been in dispute about the location of the Moshi Mountain Range at the border between the Myriad Treasures Empire and the Yuan Yuan Empire. So, I plan to send you guys to the Moshi Mountain Range to get a better understanding of the situation, are you willing? "

Nie Zhen nodded his head, looked at Great Sect Master and asked, "Disciple understands, but I wonder if Great Sect Master has set a bottom line?"

Since this concerned another super sect, he would have to inquire about the bottom line. Otherwise, it was very likely that there would be a big problem.

"No bottom line!" Great Sect Master said without hesitation. At this moment, Great Sect Master, who was always kind, finally showed his arrogance.

There was no bottom line, which meant as long as the environment allowed, Nie Zhen could take any action as long as Nie Zhen clearly investigated the matter.

One must know, Great Sect Master was speaking to Nie Zhen.

Who was Nie Zhen? He had once massacred a cultivator with over eighty percent of his super Subordinate Country in a fit of rage, almost as if he wanted to slaughter a nation's god of slaughter, and as if he was given the nickname of Demon King.

Giving such a huge amount of authority to such a person was the same as announcing that as long as Nie Zhen thought it was possible, no matter how many lives were involved, it was all within the scope of Great Sect Master's permission!

Foreign affairs between the two countries. If you offend me, I'll definitely offend you.

According to the tradition of the Duobao Sect, two or three days after the end of the annual examination, all the Duobao Sect disciples would gather once again. After the Sect Master's sacrifices to the heaven and earth, he would announce the end of the annual examination and distribute the corresponding rewards to the disciples who were in the top ten.

In the early morning of the next day, when the disciples received the news, they all went to the plaza outside the main hall of the Duobao Sect.

Duobao Sect Five, Great Sect Master, slowly walked out of the main hall and stopped in front of the joss sticks outside the main hall. At this time, there were five boys who were holding three joss sticks that were as thick as two fingers and handing them over to the five sect masters.

The five sect masters raised the incense in their hands up high and let Great Sect Master read it out in a low voice: "Unfilial disciples Zhuo Bufan, Duan Rong, Zhong Ming, Luo Tian, Zheng Ying, kowtow to heaven and earth … The Duobao Sect seniors above, bless my Duobao Sect to remain prosperous for the next year. There will be many talents within the Duobao Sect, and all of the disciples will cultivate smoothly … "

After the five sect masters had paid their respects to the ancestors of the heaven and earth and Duobao Sect, Great Sect Master smiled and announced to the Duobao Sect disciples present: "Disciples, I hereby announce that the annual Duobao Sect examination has officially ended. However, this annual Duobao Sect examination, in the end, is only an interlude in your path of cultivation.

"Next, all disciples that are ranked in the top ten, please come forward. The sect will bestow upon you the rewards of this assessment!"

As soon as Great Sect Master finished speaking, ten Duobao Sect disciples, led by Nie Zhen, stepped forward one after another.

Great Sect Master was the first to speak as he smiled at Nie Zhen: "Nie Zhen, you are the champion of this year's annual examination. According to my Duobao Sect's customs, you are qualified to receive a middle grade Earth Stage spirit artifact.

As he said that, Great Sect Master took out a long blade covered with a scarlet glow from the Storage Ring and handed it over to Nie Zhen.

"Thank you, Great Sect Master!" Nie Zhen cupped his fist in thanks.

Actually, Nie Zhen did not care about these rewards at all. Not to mention that he already possessed the Sixth Level of the Earth Stage Spirit Weapon, the Solitary Yang Sword, and even the One Yang Sword itself, Nie Zhen might not even be interested in it.

For example, his father and the others. As they were in the Subordinate Country, they probably did not have any good weapons, and the One Yang Sword was personally bestowed by his master. Nie Zhen naturally could not casually give out the sword, but this Flying Hong Blade could be given to Nie Zhen as he wished.

After all, there were annual examination rewards for every year. However, not all spirit artifacts used in the Earth Stage Level were available, and only because this year's circumstances were special did the sect raise the reward by a bit.

After Nie Zhen, Great Sect Master handed the other nine rewards to the other nine disciples.

After the rewards have been distributed, Great Sect Master then spoke to the ten disciples below him: "This year, is a special year. In half a year, my Duobao Sect, Origin Sect, and Ice River Valley will organize an exchange competition that will take place once every twenty years, and the location chosen for this exchange competition will be within the Origin Sect. At that time, you will be fighting with the strongest disciples from the other two major sects.

"Roar …"

The disciples below the stage were all discussing. They were cultivating within the Duobao Sect, and had more or less heard about the twenty year round of Three Sects exchange competition, but because their seniority was still young, they did not know that this year was actually the twentieth year.0

Duobao Sect, Origin Sect, and Ice River Valley; these three major sects had always been competing with each other, but everyone was a sect with status, so collisions between sect heads, elders, and so on wouldn't appear often. Otherwise, big things would happen every second.

Therefore, the three sects had discussed a cycle of reincarnation every twenty years and had their disciples fight a decisive battle. It could be considered a form of healthy competition between the strong and the weak.

One must not underestimate this Three Sects exchange competition, and think that it was just a small fight between disciples of some sort. One must know, whether a sect was strong or was downhill, people could easily tell the strength of the disciples in a sect just by looking at their cultivation.

The policy and strategy of the sect's development in the next twenty years, and its diplomatic attitude towards the other two great sects, whether they were tough or soft, all had a great deal to do with this Three Sects exchange competition.

Moreover, even if these matters of interest were not mentioned, just this sentence alone was enough to stir the fighting spirit of the Duobao Sect disciples.

Although there would usually be competition within the sect, once they all looked towards the outside, they would all be able to unite as one against a common enemy.

Great Sect Master then laughed and said: "After all, there's still half a year of time in the Three Sects Exchange Competition. During this half year, the ten of you must cultivate well, and right now, there's going to be an extremely good opportunity for you to practice in advance."

"According to the report from my sect's Elder Tianhuo, the two herb gathering boys that he sent out have now disappeared, so we guessed that something bad might have happened. Because Moshi Mountain Range is the historical ownership of Moshi Mountain Range at the border between our many treasures empire and the Yuan Empire, the two sects have always debated about it, and taking into account the seriousness of the problem, our sect master has decided to send the top ten disciples to the Moshi Mountain Range in three days to investigate the whereabouts of the two herb collecting boys. This small team, after Great Sect Master's discussion, has decided to let the champion team lead by the core disciple Nie Zhen, what other questions do you have?"

"No!" The ten disciples spoke in unison.

Basically, Great Sect Master had told these information to Nie Zhen the night before. Since Nie Zhen already knew about it, there was no doubt about it.

Regarding this Moshi Mountain Range, after Nie Zhen had bid his farewells to Great Sect Master last night, he had, on the contrary, looked for Yu Zhenzi and Jue Mingzi to get an understanding of it.

Although Nie Zhen was much stronger than the two of them in terms of cultivation level, Nie Zhen might not be as clear as the two of them on the situation within the Myriad Treasures Empire.

According to Yu Zhenzi and Jue Mingzi, Moshi Mountain Range produced a type of ore, which was called Ink Stone, which was a material used for refining artifacts. However, Moshi Mountain Range produced a lot of medicinal ingredients, which was why Origin Sect coveted this mountain range.

Actually, ninety percent of the land under the Moshi Mountain Range was subordinate to one of the Subordinate Country s — — Within the territory of the Nandou Country s, however, there just happened to be a tenth of a mountain range. And because of that, the Origin Sect s took a fancy to this mountain range, insisting that they had the power to jointly develop it.

Duobao Sect naturally strongly condemned such a shameless act. Throughout history, the two sides had fought back and forth, talking back to each other and dancing in the air.

Many people suspected that there was Origin Sect behind his back. If it was really so, then this action of the Origin Sect was not only some sort of probe, it was also likely to be some sort of conspiracy.

No matter what, this kind of shameless behavior must be dealt a blow. This was also the reason why Nie Zhen, who was one of the top ten disciples, had the most decisive style in doing things. They believed that if Nie Zhen really discovered something, he would be the first to give a thunderous attack.
