Zheng Xiang was silent for a moment before he shook his head and said, "Brother Fang, I can't say anything about joining a league for now. Let's see what the future holds for us." 

Ye Tian Yun shrugged. He was just acquainting Zheng Xiang for now. He didn't care if Zheng Xiang joined any league or remained solo in the future. Zheng Xiang was never his priority. His target right now was to get into the Grand Spirit Hunt, and joining a league was the best way for that. 

Sometime later, the lift finally came to a halt. Both of them had crossed over to the First Peak.

First Peak was the most important peak of the Gracious Sword Sect. It was at the center of all mountains, and the Qi concentration was highest, making it the best place to cultivate in the whole sect. However, only the highest-ranked elders and disciples were allowed to cultivate here, along with the Sect Leader.

On the First Peak's foot were various halls, departments, and shops. The most significant and crowded ones were the Resource Hall, Martial Mission Hall, and Martial Book Pavilion.

Resource Hall was a two-floor building built on the far-left corner, which, as its name suggested, controlled and distributed resources to everyone in the sect. It also allocated resources needed for big events and missions to the disciples and elders. 

The Martial Mission Hall was a three-storey pagoda on the right, which gave out missions to the sect disciples. These missions were mostly requests for help by the surrounding clans and even kingdoms, and these missions also gave out rewards to the disciples, and these rewards were the main source of income for the disciples.

And the Martial Book Pavilion, which stood the tallest among all other buildings at the center of the base of First Peak, and was also the most important building of the sect. This five-storey building had all the sect records and the cultivation manuals for the disciples and elders. 

The base of First Peak was bustling as always, with disciples going from one place to another, heading out of the sect, coming in, and then there were trading stalls opened by disciples to sell their gains from previous missions. This place felt like a mini market to Ye Tian Yun.

There were many inner court disciples also present at the scene along with the outer court disciples, going in and out of the Martial Book Pavilion and Resource Hall.

Ye Tian Yun and Zheng Xiang first entered the Resource Hall for their robes and Inner Court Token. 

Resource Hall, unlike other departments, wasn't entirely controlled by the elders. The ones who took care of everything here were the managers. Managers did not have any political power in the sect and were mainly responsible for wealth management. They worked under core elders and were accountable for all resources.

The Resource Hall was a two-storey building, with the ground floor for all the resource allocation to Inner Court disciples and the upper floor for the management, core disciples, and elders.

When Ye Tian Yun stepped into the building, he was greeted with a buzzing crowd.

Even though it was still early in the morning, the Resource Hall was already crowded with new disciples from all seven peaks. 

The Inner Court Entrance Hunt had come to an end, and now, all new Inner Court disciples were rushing to the First Peak to get their tokens and rewards. 

In fact, even the female disciples from the Third and Fourth Peak had come to get their new tokens. This also created a weird sense of excitement among the male disciples, making them act awkward and elegant at the same time. 

In the Gracious Sword Sect, the female outer court disciples had a more leisurely life than their male counterparts. The female disciples were treated almost like Inner Court disciples. They were given resources and a place to cultivate to prepare for the Inner Court Entrance Hunt. On top of this, the only fights, or battles between them were organized friendly spars to gain some experience. 

Meanwhile, the male disciples were forced to fight among themselves for even the tiniest number of resources and a place to cultivate. The sect didn't give any resources and made the disciples go on missions given by the Martial Mission Hall if they wanted to get resources for increasing their battle prowess and cultivation. 

… 

As soon as one entered the Resource Hall, he would feel like he was in a huge rectangular auditorium, with counters on the opposite end. 

Each counter was adjacent to each other, and the disciples standing in front of them were separated by railings. This made everything much ordered and less crowded.

The disciples were standing in line to get their tokens while most of them also discussed the Hunt that had just come to an end last night. 

Ye Tian Yun and Zheng Xiang didn't say anything and moved towards the shortest line to receive their Inner Court robes and tokens.

However, just before Ye Tian Yun reached, he heard something which made him come to a halt.

"Is Xiao Ming really that powerful?"
