Chapter 36

Han Cong's words excited Chen Feng. The generous rewards were naturally a given, but the opportunity to enter the Inner Sect was even more rare.

It must be understood that the treatment of the Inner Sect disciples and the Outer Sect disciples in the Qianyuan Sect was completely different.

In the eyes of the high-ranking members of the sect, the Outer Sect members were insignificant, while the Inner Sect disciples were the root of the sect's continuation.

Each Inner Sect disciple received a generous supply of resources every month for their cultivation, and each of them could obtain a cave heaven as a place for cultivation.

This treatment surpassed many of the elders in the Outer Sect.

Chen Feng firmly said, "I must participate in this Outer Sect competition."

"If you were still at your previous strength, I definitely wouldn't let you participate. But you are now very strong, at the Sixth Level of the Later Heaven stage, you already have the strength to participate," Han Cong said.

"Even if you don't make it into the top ten, gaining combat experience and more training is still very beneficial."

Han Cong smiled.

Han Yuer said, "Father, Chen Feng is so strong now, he can't even make it into the top ten?"

"Among the Outer Sect, there are many hidden dragons and crouching tigers. Don't underestimate others."

Han Cong warned, "Every year during the Outer Sect competition, a batch of exceptionally talented individuals emerges. Not to mention the top ten, every year in the top fifty, there are many at the Eighth Level of the Later Heaven stage, and the Ninth Level is not uncommon. Some have even reached the peak of the Ninth Level of the Later Heaven stage, just one step away from entering the Divine Gate realm."

"These are half-step Divine Gate experts!"

Chen Feng was moved when he heard this.

Half-step Divine Gate, Ninth Level of the Later Heaven stage, such experts were still beyond his current strength. He was strong, yes, but those people were even stronger.

"It seems the Outer Sect competition is not as simple as I thought. I need to work even harder!"

"You don't need to worry about it. I'll register you. You don't need to participate in the preliminary rounds; you can directly join the main competition with 320 participants," Han Cong said.

Chen Feng smiled, "Thank you, Uncle."

Han Yuer said brightly, "Father, I want to participate too."

"If you participate...,"

Han Cong was a bit hesitant, "You are only at the Fifth Level of the Later Heaven stage, which is a bit low. And it's difficult to improve your realm in a short time."

Han Yuer rolled her eyes, "Isn't it your fault? You said you would find me a whip technique manual, and you've been saying that for months, but you still haven't found it. Even if I can't improve my realm in a short time, I can make up for it with a sophisticated martial technique!"

Han Cong was embarrassed, "Well, ah, my dear. You know, whip techniques are rare, and there are few whip techniques. The ones in the Outer Sect's martial technique pavilion don't meet your standards. Let me go to the market and find one for you."

Chen Feng thought of something and took out the whip technique manual from his pocket, handing it to Han Cong, "Uncle, I have a whip technique manual here."

"Thirteen Soft Whip Strikes? This is a Greenwood Sect technique?"

Han Cong took the manual, glanced at it, and his gaze immediately became sharp as he looked at Chen Feng, "Where did you get this?"

Chen Feng didn't hide it, "A few months ago, during my training in the Green Forest Mountains, I encountered a few Greenwood Sect scum. I killed them, and this was found on their bodies."

"Good, good boy! You have some skills!"

Han Cong's expression softened, and he patted Chen Feng's shoulder heavily, laughing, "It seems I underestimated you."

Chen Feng touched his nose and asked, "Is there a big grudge between the Greenwood Sect and our sect?"

"You'll know in the future," Han Cong said.

He threw the manual to Han Yuer and smiled, "Daughter, this is a Yellow Rank Second Grade technique, and it's a whip technique, very suitable for you."

Han Yuer was unexpectedly thrilled and excitedly flipped through it.

"Don't forget to thank Chen Feng. That's impolite," Han Cong scolded.

Previously, Han Yuer had always protected Chen Feng, and she couldn't immediately switch roles to thank Chen Feng.

Chen Feng didn't mind and smiled, "No need, Uncle. You've taken such good care of me. A mere whip technique is nothing."

Han Cong looked at him and nodded approvingly.

After a few more words, Chen Feng bid farewell and left.

Han Yuer saw him out. At the door, she lowered her head and said softly, "Chen Feng, thank you."

She seemed a bit embarrassed and didn't dare to look up at Chen Feng.

Chen Feng was taken aback and smiled warmly, "Senior Sister, no need to be so formal."

The sunset was setting, and the young man's smile was pure and sunny. Han Yuer looked up and couldn't help but be captivated.

When Chen Feng was far away, she covered her slightly flushed face and smiled shyly, "I never realized Chen Junior Brother is actually quite handsome."

Leaving the Han family, Chen Feng went to the front mountain of the Outer Sect, heading straight for the martial technique pavilion.

The recent training not only increased his strength but also made him deeply aware of his shortcomings.

His defense was good, but his offense was lacking.

His offensive techniques were very limited, just the Bright Great Hand Seal. Although it was powerful, it was monotonous and lacked variation. Moreover, the Bright Great Hand Seal was stronger in defense rather than offense.

At least, the current Immovable Mingwang Seal was like that.
