"Huh?" Hui Mei was startled when a series of notifications appeared on the screen. Upon closer inspection, her eyes widened as she read the text. She glanced at the other Peak Masters, who were also startled by the sudden notifications. Upon reading them, their expressions became as dumbfounded as Hui Mei’s.

"This... why are they all so shocked?" Tang Ning, who hadn’t checked the notifications yet, was puzzled. However, when she finally did, her expression froze.

"Someone already cleared the starting area?" a Peak Master asked in disbelief.

"Heavens... 100 beasts in such a short time? How is this possible with such low cultivation?" exclaimed another Peak Master, equally astonished.

"Heavens... and from the Yang-Yin Sect of all places?" said another Peak Master in a shocked voice, staring at the text with wide eyes.

"Impossible! How can those people have the necessary combat awareness?" said another Peak Master with a frown. He couldn’t believe someone from the Yang-Yin Sect could accomplish such a feat. Sure, they had high cultivation, but their method was Dual Cultivation, which hardly involved any combat. Meanwhile, disciples from other sects who followed the traditional route had to fight regularly, betting their lives and gaining richer combat experience. This challenge required either exceptional combat awareness or a powerful bloodline—qualities he didn’t think the Yang-Yin Sect could produce. Even they, the Black Bamboo Kingdom’s top sect, didn’t have a disciple with such talent. In his opinion, killing 100 beasts at such low cultivation in such a short time was something even royal family members couldn’t achieve.

"Yeah, you’re right. Moreover, that disciple also reached the Foundation Realm so quickly... to do that, the person must have killed a few Foundation Realm beasts at the same time," another Peak Master added.

"Hmm... could it be that a member of a hidden family or a cultivator from outside the Black Bamboo Kingdom joined them?" another Peak Master speculated, making everyone’s faces turn grim.

"What kind of luck is favoring them? Not only did a member of the Min Family join them, but now a possible hidden family cultivator might have as well," said another Peak Master. Those who had been looking down on the Yang-Yin Sect felt as if they had been slapped in the face, their cheeks burning with embarrassment.

"Sect Master, you should contact Sect Master Jiang Hong and ask him who it is. Maybe we can entice him or her to join us," suggested another Peak Master, causing Hui Mei to roll her eyes.

"Do you think Jiang Hong is an idiot who would reveal their identity before the competition? I don’t need to call him—the other Sect Masters, who are more desperate, must already be contacting him. But I highly doubt they’ll succeed in making him speak," Hui Mei replied indifferently.

The Peak Masters grimaced and fell silent, agreeing with her. There was no way Jiang Hong would reveal the disciple’s identity, especially to avoid them becoming a target for those with malicious intentions before the competition.

"Yang-Yin Sect... Master, wasn’t that guy also from that sect?" Tang Ning recalled Wang Ming, whom she had met in the secret realm, and whispered. Hui Mei, who heard this, nodded in agreement.

"Did you say something, Disciple Tang Ning?" asked a Peak Master.

"Nothing," Tang Ning replied calmly.

"She must be worried about her sister," another Peak Master commented.

"Don’t worry. Even if someone else cleared the area first, it’s not certain they’ll maintain the lead. I’m sure your sister will end up on top in the end," reassured another Peak Master, though she seemed to doubt her own words.

"I still believe Disciple Tang—" Before the Peak Master could finish, his eyes darted to the screen, where Tang Ning’s sister was shown fighting in a dangerous situation. She narrowly avoided death by retreating at the last moment.

"You guys should keep quiet! You said no one could beat my future disciples—then someone did. You said the Yang-Yin Sect couldn’t win—now one of their disciples cleared the starting area first. You said Disciple Tang would take the lead soon—and now she had to retreat! I think all your mouths are cursed with bad luck!" Hui Mei snapped angrily. Discover hidden content at freewebnovel

The Peak Masters, hearing this, coughed awkwardly, averted their gazes, and remained silent.

"Hmm, looks like she’s trying to kill those other players," Tang Ning said, causing everyone’s attention to shift to the screen. They saw her sister fighting a couple of players who were likely trying to rob her cores while she was injured.

"Heh, they underestimated her," one of the Peak Masters sneered as the players were easily slaughtered by Tang Ning’s sister.

"Wasn’t there an achievement for killing 100 players alone in this competition?" asked one of the Peak Masters.

"Yes, there was, and a large amount of points would be awarded—around 800, I think," another Peak Master replied.

"Maybe she could do it... I mean, she’s close to killing 100 players. This alone could put her in the lead," said another disciple. Every sect master was watching Tang Ning’s sister kill players, with even Hui Mei and Tang Ning watching nervously.

"Good. After she kills him, she’ll be the first one to get the achievement, and there’s no way anyone would be close to her player kills," Hui Mei said confidently—then suddenly paused.

’Did I raise a flag?’ Hui Mei thought as an ominous premonition welled up in her heart.

’Damn it, me and my mouth... Is my mouth also cursed?’ Hui Mei thought, glaring at the notifications.
