Bai Mu clenched his fists so tightly that the veins on the backs of his hands bulged. His once-calm expression had turned grim. From the very beginning, he had believed the three elders he brought were more than enough to teach Han Nian a lesson.Yet the opposite had happened.The three elders had been toyed with like children who had only just begun learning how to fight.To make matters worse, Han Nian continued throwing out one provocative remark after another, causing them to lose their composure and fight even more recklessly.Hearing those endless taunts, the three elders exchanged glances.This time, they completely cast aside their pride.They realized that if they continued holding back, they would only humiliate themselves further.Swoosh!Swoosh!Swoosh!The three figures charged forward simultaneously once again.This time, their auras were far more terrifying than before.Qi flooded the sky, creating overwhelming pressure that made the trees below tremble violently.The a

Bai Mu and Han Nian stood facing each other once again.The wind swept through the battlefield, carrying dust and withered leaves between them.The aftermath of their previous clashes covered the entire area.The ground was cracked, trees had been uprooted, and even several small hills had been reduced to rubble.Even so, the gazes of both men only grew sharper.Neither showed the slightest intention of ending the battle.Bai Mu took a deep breath.The calm expression he had maintained until now was gradually replaced by astonishment.Throughout his decades of cultivation, this was the first time he had encountered a junior capable of forcing him into such an intense battle."Junior Han, the longer I fight you, the more questions arise in my mind. I truly cannot understand how someone who hasn't even reached the Earth Realm can battle me on equal footing for this long. The difference between the Diamond Realm and the Earth Realm isn't merely one or two stars—it is a vast chasm that sh

Bai Mu continued gripping the two broken pieces of his sword tightly. His face was filled with confusion after hearing Han Nian say that he had his own reasons why the Most Handsome Men Sect of the Sky Continent would never follow the system that nearly every sect had used for thousands of years.Slowly, he raised his head."What do you mean, Junior Han? Ever since the beginning, you've insisted that your sect's system is different because of a reason that cannot be challenged. I truly want to know what that reason is. Haven't the systems used by all the major sects already proven themselves by producing countless experts? Why have you chosen to walk a completely different path? What exactly have you seen that makes you so certain every other sect is wrong?"Han Nian smiled faintly.He looked at Bai Mu calmly before beginning his explanation."The answer is actually very simple, Senior Bai. I dislike the rules adopted by almost every sect. Just imagine a situation. Suppose that one da

The whispers among the prospective sect members grew louder throughout the registration courtyard. They kept glancing at Han Nian with curious expressions. Some of them still couldn't believe that the relaxed young man before them was the very person who had become the talk of the entire Thousand Flower City.Naturally, Zhao Yuan noticed what was happening.He cleared his throat softly before looking at everyone present."Listen carefully, all of you. The person you've been talking about is not an ordinary disciple as you imagined. He is the Founder and Sect Master of the Most Handsome Men Sect of the Sky Continent, Master Han Nian. Every bit of this sect's rapid growth, every pill you've heard about that can dramatically increase cultivation, and even the unique rules that set our sect apart from all the others—they all came from him. So stop standing there staring at him in confusion. Show your Sect Master the respect he deserves!"Instantly, all the prospective disciples were stunn

"Ah... do as you wish if you’ve already made up your mind. But before I truly accept you as my disciple, there is one thing you must understand very clearly. Becoming my disciple is not an honor that comes without a price. On the contrary, it is the most painful path you could ever imagine. The training you will undergo will be at least ten times harsher than anyone else’s in this sect. I will never go easy on you just because you are my disciple. When everyone else is resting, you will still be training. When everyone else is sleeping, you will still be wielding your sword. Even when your body can no longer stand, I will still force you to get back on your feet. Don’t expect me to pity you when I see you covered in wounds or on the verge of collapsing, because to me, misplaced compassion only creates weaklings. I won’t even hesitate to put you through agony if it makes you stronger. So think carefully one more time. If you choose to back out now, I won’t blame you."Luo Feng’s body r
