I Am Supreme

Shi Wuchen put up a confident show confidently when he returned to activate the formation. Unfortunately, the outcome of his actions was that there was not the slightest bit of change, thus he was mocked by Lan and Ren for quite a while. It was only until Yun Yang came back that the mountain-guarding formation was officially activated.

"Excuse me, what are you trying to do by delivering mystical Qi to activate only one formation point? What kind of effect do you wish to garner? There are so many points of formation, but you only activated one of them? Does it make sense if the formation comes to life? What kind of guarding effect could such a formation create?"

Shi Wuchen was flustered by the merciless jabs, but he was quickly stunned by the change that was unfolding before him. Tongue-tied, his jaw dropped and his eyes widened; his face was twisted in shock, looking almost deformed.

As Yun Yang delivered doses of mystical Qi and the grand formation was fully activated, a soft noise was followed by the sight of heaven and earth that changed its colors. A shapeless barrier rose from the ground and soared into the clouds. After a moment, the sun, moon, and stars glowed simultaneously and showered their brilliance upon where the Residence of Nine Supremes stood.

Endless radiance poured onto the Residence of Nine Supremes, the luminosity prismatic and beautiful, only to vanish immediately after.

It seemed that the lights had disappeared, but the intensity of spiritual Qi around the Residence of Nine Supremes escalated abruptly. It was like the spiritual Qi from the vicinity had met with a gigantic whirlpool as they poured and gushed, streaming into one point from various directions.

It had been only within the blink of an eye before the Residence of Nine Supremes was brimming with rich spiritual Qi.

Lan Ruojun breathed in a mouthful of spiritual Qi instinctively, only to be choked. As Shi Wuchen, Lan Ruojun and Ren Qingkuang stood at the Residence of Nine Supremes' highest point and took in everything that had happened, they were left with astonishment and stupor. There was no other way to describe it; they were utterly shocked.

"How can the spiritual Qi be so dense - how -how is this possible?"

Lan Ruojun's jaw almost dropped, his eyes unblinking; he was perplexed like he was in a dream.

"A sect that was simply erected has the supply of spiritual Qi that doesn't lack in comparison to schools of lower class Celestial Luck Banner, in just its guarding formation activation… This isn't a dream, is it?"

Ren Qingkuang was also dumbstruck.

"What is even more amazing is that the spiritual Qi is only accumulating here. It's not going away. If this goes on…"

Shi Wuchen could not even finish his sentence from bewilderment.

Even though Shi Wuchen already had his own set of expectations and was confident in Yun Yang, knowing that the formation set up by a hundred and eight pieces of the Ethereal Amethysts must be extraordinary, the current situation had still come as a surprise.

What was going on?

As the trio felt the spiritual Qi that was growing richer, they felt increasingly soothed. It was as if every breath of spiritual Qi taken caused the mystical Qi within their body to leap forward in advancement.

There had probably never been such a joyous time in their lives as they were experiencing now.

"We… really don't have the Celestial Luck Banner here?" Ren Qingkuang was so surprised that he subconsciously thought of something he would not even believe.

"Have you not come into contact with the Celestial Luck Banner in the past? Do you feel the flag's presence here? Asking stupid questions is all you know!"

Shi Wuchen scoffed loudly, looking at Ren Qingkuang and Lan Ruojun like he was looking at a pair of bumpkins.

"I know that poverty has limited your mind and imagination, but can you at least try to hide your ignorance? You don't think it's embarrassing but I, Supreme Sword of the Residence of Nine Supremes, think it is!"

Ren Qingkuang flushed, retorting angrily, "Yi Tuo! Supreme Despicable! Of course, you're amazing, being Supreme Despicable - oh how amazing you are! Nonetheless, you would do well to watch your words! Be careful, or I'll be at your throat!"

Shi Wuchen snorted and said, "I have no intention to quarrel with you. What do I have to be scared of even if you have a row with me when someone like you can't even feel the presence of the Celestial Luck Banner?"

Both men glared at each other like gamefowls.

This scene had repeated itself too many times throughout these past few days.

Ren Qingkuang was proficient in swordsmanship as well, thus it was natural that he was concerned with being the Supreme of Sword. He had to fight for the title!

Therefore, there were already plenty of times that they battled as the consequence of arguments.

In spite of this, their cultivation base and combat power were similar. They even knew each other as well as the back of their palms. Hardly was there a distinct win after they exhausted themselves each time.

It was also for this reason that Shi Wuchen unavoidably felt that the threat was growing while Ren Qingkuang thought that he was getting closer to his target and was utterly confident instead.

During this period of time, approximately half a month, Yun Yang showed no sign of making any more, only concentrating on building his sect.

Under his and Qian Duoduo's concerted supervision, the ground construction of the Residence of Nine Supremes was already completed. It included the disciple's accommodations, study tower, training room, canteen, toilet, garden, spiritual herb farm, contribution and merit tower, execution hall, fight hall, chore room, warehouse, treasure house, and other basic establishments.

There were also more than a thousand people working in the sect. Out in the huge training ground in front, there were already more than two hundred people training, the Residence of Nine Supremes' freshly recruited disciples.

These were all external disciples recruited by Little Fatty. Among these people, only the most outstanding could possibly be recruited as the internal disciples. Similarly, remarkable internal disciples would only be considered as in-house disciples by the Residence of Nine Supremes' nine Supremes. There were the associated disciples above the in-house disciples and the former who were brilliant could then be the true teaching disciples while those who met the requirements of character and talent had the chance of becoming direct disciples.

Going further as a direct disciple would be to become a core disciple. The top ten of them would be titled the Residence of Nine Supremes' Ten Disciples, the leading one carrying the honor of being the Residence of Nine Supremes' commanding disciple.

In spite of this, the Residence of Nine Supremes' commanding disciple was vastly different from the commanding disciple of other sects. Firstly, the commanding disciple was not the head of the Residence of Nine Supremes, Yun Yang's, disciple. Secondly, the commanding disciple would face a challenge every once in a while; only a complete victory could secure and retain his status. Otherwise, he would be replaced by the next most worthy individual.

In a nutshell, the rules Little Fatty came up with were riddled with complexity and were incredibly stern. Since entering the sect, a disciple would begin an endless competition of a lifetime!

"This disciple and that disciple - is it too much? Isn't it redundant?"

"The various titles allow everyone to fight for them continuously. Only by going up rank after rank will there be a sense of accomplishment, step after step. This can nurture their confidence and whenever it is, they'll never feel like slacking."

When Little Fatty Qian Duoduo informed Yun Yang about the rules, the latter was rather confused.

"Alright. Do as you see fit in this matter."

"Of course. I am terribly familiar with this kind of rules! Of course, we have to get rid of the dross and keep only the essence!"

Little Fatty had been pouring his heart and soul recently in setting up the sect, truly accomplishing his responsibilities and tasks as he drew out all the regulations and systems. It had been more than a month since he had a good sleep. He had slimmed down from the fatigue, losing exactly eight small catties of weight!

The entire sect's outline was indeed built properly by Little Fatty. In addition, Yun Yang, Shi Wuchen, Ren and Lan could not pick out any issues after looking through the specifications and systems he drafted. Even if it were not flawless and perfect, it was extremely all-rounded.

It even caused Lan Ruojun's gaze at Qian Duoduo to be filled with grudging admiration.
