Chapter 289: Chapter 288: The System Owner Appears

Under the stunned gaze of the middle-aged Sword Cultivator, Gu Shengge stepped on Jin Xi's Dragon head, pierced through the Void Realm, and vanished in an instant.

The middle-aged Sword Cultivator below was somewhat dumbfounded. He had thought he was about to perish there, but who knew the other party hadn't attacked him.

And with his immense power, what need did he have to come to this Heaven Abyss Realm?

He didn't know the reason. After pondering, he decided to return to the Myriad Hao Heavenly Sect first to see if some major event he was unaware of had occurred.

At the Myriad Hao Heavenly Sect, a hundred Disciples, escorted by the Sect Elders, boarded a flying boat, while below were the high-ranking Sect officials and Disciples seeing them off.

Over a hundred Disciples stood at the edge of the flying boat, waving goodbye to the Cultivators seeing them off below.

The leading man wore white robes, with a long sword on his back, handsome and upright, his gaze firm.

"Sect Master, please rest assured, I will definitely lead my Junior Brothers and Junior Sisters to defeat the Cultivators of the Soul Hao Heavenly Sect and the Primordial Hao Immortal Palace, and let the great name of our Myriad Hao Heavenly Sect spread throughout the entire Heaven Abyss Realm!"

His fellow Disciples beside him were also excited. The grand competition of the three great Sects, held once every thousand years, had finally begun. This would be a battle that determined the Sect's reputation for a millennium, and their participation represented the Sect's hope!

They were very confident about this competition. In recent years, among the younger generation Cultivators who appeared in the three great Sects, few could rival their Senior Brother Wu Hao. Coupled with their own considerable strength, they felt they had an eighty percent chance of defeating the Cultivators from the other two Sects.

They traveled rapidly by flying boat, and in just half a day, they had journeyed tens of thousands of miles, heading straight for Sanyang Mountain.

On the other side, at the Soul Hao Heavenly Sect, gloom pervaded the entire Sect.

A thousand years ago, the Soul Hao Heavenly Sect was ranked first among the three great Sects. Unfortunately, in a battle nine hundred years ago, the Sect's Prodigy, Hu Tian, was suppressed and killed by Chen Haoran of the Myriad Hao Heavenly Sect. Since then, the Soul Hao Heavenly Sect had fallen into decline, and none of its younger generation Cultivators had risen, leaving them in a sorry state.

Now, with the thousand-year period again, and the Three Sect Grand Competition, they had no confidence at all, especially when facing the Myriad Hao Heavenly Sect, which could be considered their sworn enemy.

Their Senior Brother was a top-tier Prodigy, rarely seen in the Heaven Abyss Realm for five thousand years...

A sense of despair enveloped the hearts of the Soul Hao Heavenly Sect Disciples, making them dejected and utterly lacking in fighting spirit.

However, the Three Sect Grand Competition definitely had to be attended. Led by their Elders, they quickly assembled, boarded the flying boat, and departed together.

Within the group, everyone wore a mournful expression. At the very back of the group, a fellow attendant lowered his head, his face full of sneers, muttering to himself:

"A bunch of good-for-nothings, looking like this and still worthy of becoming Inner Sect Disciples of the Soul Hao Heavenly Sect? Truly laughable!"

"Hu Gou'er, aren't you going to come and clean the cabin? You have no sense at all!"

From the front, a Disciple's angry shout came. A hint of coldness flashed in the eyes of the attendant with his head bowed, but he still suppressed his anger and stepped forward to clean the cabin.

Some Cultivators behind him saw his appearance and couldn't help but sneer: "What a waste, I don't know why he insisted on coming!"

Others also showed disdain for him, but they wouldn't care about such a small figure.

The fawning expression on Hu Gou'er's face vanished abruptly as he entered the cabin. After straightening his body, his entire demeanor underwent a complete transformation. He was imposing and exuded a hint of dominance in his every move.

He gazed deeply at the Disciples outside: "The Soul Hao Heavenly Sect has truly fallen. They brought such a group of good-for-nothings! Myriad Hao Heavenly Sect... the old grudges will be settled in this grand competition!"

As he spoke, he raised his hand and casually pointed in the Void Realm, yet there was clearly nothing in front of him, as if he were pointing at the air.

"System, if I, as an attendant, defeat all the Sect's Prodigies and win first place in this grand competition, how much Shock Value can I gain?"

The System's mechanical voice sounded: "Host, based on the number of participants in this grand competition and your current identity and cultivation, you can probably gain two hundred thousand Shock Value. However, this is only an estimate, the specific amount will depend on the actual situation!"

"Furthermore, Host needs to be aware that if you are shocked by an enemy, a portion of Shock Value will be deducted."

Hu Gou'er snorted disdainfully: "I'm not even shocked by having a System like you by my side, what else could possibly shock me!"

The Soul Hao Heavenly Sect's flying boat sped along, and in just two days, it quickly arrived.

Sanyang Mountain was bustling with people. Not only were there Disciples from the three great Sects, but also Disciples from other Sects would come. On one hand, they observed the competition of the three great Sects, and on the other hand, they also had similar competitions of their own, but these would only begin after the three great Sects' competition was completed.

Hu Gou'er saw so many people below, a hint of coldness flashed in his eyes, and at the same time, he had a bold idea.

"System, didn't you say Chen Haoran's aura appeared a few days ago? Do you think he will come to Sanyang Mountain?" Hu Gou'er asked.

The System exclaimed: "Host, what are you going to do? Chen Haoran is the current number one in the Heaven Abyss Realm, and you are only at Foundation Establishment stage..."

Hu Gou'er said irritably: "Shut up! Don't I know that? Don't I still have a Peak Dao Integration Experience Card! At that time... if I can defeat Chen Haoran with my current identity, it will definitely cause a huge sensation. By then, the Shock Value I can gain will definitely double..."

"Host, you are truly too bold. That Chen Haoran is, after all, an experienced expert, and also a Sword Cultivator. To be honest, your idea is risky!"

While they were planning and speculating, an angry shout suddenly came from outside: "Hu Gou'er, where have you hidden again? Why is there no sound? Get out here!"

Hu Gou'er's expression stiffened, his face filled with indignation. A moment later, he suppressed all emotions, put on a fawning smile, and walked out of the room.

"Senior Brother Lin, I'm here! I was too tired just now and leaned against the wall for a quick nap, who knew I actually fell asleep."

His face was full of smiles, but as he approached, that Senior Brother Lin kicked him, sending him flying over ten meters, only stopping when he hit the edge of the flying boat.

"Useless! Lazy dog! I begged the Elder to bring you, and you're not even trying to be more diligent? How will I have an excuse to bring you into the Outer Sect in the future! Do you want to be an attendant your whole life?"

Lin Ming was truly angry. He and Hu Gou'er had known each other since childhood, both being descendants of attendants. When the Outer Sect assessment came, he had originally wanted to bring him along, but who knew this fellow actually overslept and didn't come.

Later, after he entered the Outer Sect, he tried multiple times to bring him into the Sect, but he remained indifferent.

After several attempts to help, he also lost patience. Now he was an Inner Sect Disciple, while Hu Gou'er was still an attendant.

This time, for some unknown reason, he actually took the initiative to ask for his help!

Recalling their past friendship, Lin Ming decided that if this guy was still lazy this time, he would beat him until he dared not be lazy, at least until he became an Inner Sect Disciple!
