When night falls and the world grows quiet, Su Luo enjoys writing in her diary.
[The sect exchange meeting has arrived, which means my time in the sect is running short.]
[Speaking of this sect exchange meeting, it’s once again Lin Xuan’s time to shine. Everything is prepared for him.]
[The first event is one-on-one duels. Unsurprisingly, Lin Xuan will take first place.]
[If the protagonist doesn’t win first place in such a competition, can it even be called a "Dragon Proud Sky" story? Who cares if the power scaling is broken? Lin Xuan is destined to defeat opponents above his level.]
[Lin Xuan, relying on his strength, fought his way to the finals, where he faced Ding Guanghua from the Heavenly Light Sect.]
[Ding Guanghua, an early-stage Golden Core cultivator, is the most talented disciple the Heavenly Light Sect has seen in a century. He mastered the sect’s secret technique, "Starlight Radiance," in just two and a half years, and has no equal among his peers. He even managed to retreat unscathed after encountering one of the Seven Heavenly Demon Princes...]
[His numerous feats prove that he is no weakling. Unfortunately, he ran into someone even more overpowered—the protagonist. All of Ding Guanghua’s glory will only serve to elevate Lin Xuan.]
[The general flow of the final match will be: Lin Xuan struggles in a bitter fight -> Lin Xuan teeters on the edge of defeat -> Lin Xuan collapses completely -> Lin Xuan’s loss seems inevitable -> Lin Xuan delivers a victory speech.]
[If Ding Guanghua were to say something like, "I’m sorry I couldn’t make you use your full strength," it would be perfect. Sadly, he doesn’t understand the script.]
[The outcome is completely unexpected for everyone. Shock and awe are the only reactions. In the end, Lin Xuan proves his greatness once again.]
[I didn’t have much of a role in this event. Elder Yan Xi instructed me to conceal my strength.]
[After enduring painful trials, I’ve grown a lot and become more composed. When I intentionally lost, I smirked darkly.]
[With greater strength comes greater confidence. Of course, this is all just setting the stage for what’s to come. That dark smirk? It’s a clear sign that things aren’t as simple as they seem.]
[The second event is a sect-versus-sect competition. Each sect sends ten representatives to battle other sects within a designated area.]
[Over three days, the battlefield gradually shrinks, and the last sect standing wins. It’s essentially a team-based battle royale.]
[For this event, I came up with a brilliant plan, so I ignored Elder Yan Xi’s advice and revealed a bit of my strength.]
[I was added to the team because I could wield a treasure that unleashed immense power.]
[This event wasn’t meant to showcase me, though. My task was to increase the difficulty for Lin Xuan.]
[Simply put, I leaked our sect’s location and secretly contacted the Yuexing Sect, arranging for them to ambush us.]
[One sect wasn’t enough, so I reached out to several others. Soon, multiple sects joined forces to besiege the Seven Stars Sword Sect. Since Lin Xuan had taken first place in the first event, he had drawn even more hatred.]
[These sects tacitly agreed to attack the Seven Stars Sword Sect first, then deal with the others afterward.]
[The Cloud Mist Sect happened to pass by and couldn’t stand the sight of so many sects ganging up on one. Is this how things should be done?]
[Mainly, Lin Xuan’s performance in the previous event was so dazzling that some female disciples from the Cloud Mist Sect had already become his fans.]
[If it had been the Heavenly Light Sect, they would’ve gladly joined in the attack.]
[Let’s just say, Lin Xuan’s charisma is off the charts.]
[After the chaotic battle, everyone was down—completely incapacitated. Seizing this golden opportunity, I, the mastermind behind the scenes, naturally stepped forward to show off.]
[My target was still Lin Xuan, seeking a chance for revenge. But before that, I took great pleasure in humiliating the disciples from other sects, putting on a flawless display of a petty villain’s smugness. Of course, I could only bully them when they were powerless.]
[Before I could get to Lin Xuan, he stepped in, saying, “Enough! Even if they are opponents, you shouldn’t humiliate them like this, especially when they can’t fight back.”]
[Then, despite being on the brink of collapse, Lin Xuan stood up resolutely, ready to face me in battle.]
[The other sects were stunned. They never expected Lin Xuan to stand up for them, even against his own sect.]
[At that moment, in everyone’s eyes, he was undeniably cool.]
[I threw Elder Yan Xi’s warnings to the wind and revealed my full strength, engaging Lin Xuan in an all-out battle.]
[The outcome was predictable. I couldn’t even defeat a heavily wounded Lin Xuan.]
[Lin Xuan defeated me and said, “They deserve respect.”]
[Instantly, Lin Xuan’s stature grew in the eyes of the other sects.]
[Now, not only did Lin Xuan have his Cloud Mist Sect fangirls, but he also gained admirers from other sects.]
[Because of this, the other sects respected Lin Xuan and even helped him take on the toughest opponent—the Heavenly Light Sect.]
[Thus, Lin Xuan led his team to victory in the second event as well, unstoppable as ever.]
[Even the Heavenly Light Sect admired Lin Xuan for achieving such a feat.]
[As for me? I withdrew from the competition immediately. If I hadn’t, the other sects would’ve ganged up on me as soon as they recovered.]
[Although I had revealed my strength, the exchange meeting wasn’t over yet. Elder Yan Xi stepped in to smooth things over, and any serious investigation would have to wait.]
[The most important thing now was the final event: the assault on the Heavenly Demon Sect. Originally, this wasn’t part of the plan, but a major Heavenly Demon Sect stronghold had recently been discovered, making it the perfect training ground for the disciples.]
[Having a common enemy would also foster genuine cooperation among the sects. Otherwise, with a fake enemy, they’d surely resort to underhanded tactics, since the consequences wouldn’t be severe.]
[The result was joyous. The Heavenly Demon Sect’s outpost was completely destroyed, and Lin Xuan performed exceptionally, even killing one of the Seven Heavenly Demon Princes.]
[However, this was all part of the Heavenly Demon Sect’s plan. Everything, including the location of the outpost, had been orchestrated by them.]
[Their goal? To build momentum.]
[After destroying a Heavenly Demon Sect outpost, the ten sects naturally boasted about their victory, and the Heavenly Demon Sect secretly helped spread the news.]
[This was all preparation for their eventual attack on the ten sects.]
[A simple assault on the sects wasn’t enough for the Heavenly Demon Sect. They’d tried that before, and it had become too routine, lacking impact.]
[They pretended to suffer a loss, making it seem like the Heavenly Demon Sect was weak and no longer a threat.]
[Then, while the sects were celebrating, the Heavenly Demon Sect launched a simultaneous attack on all ten sects, achieving a major victory. Completely annihilating the sects would be difficult, but securing a significant win was enough.]
[This stark contrast would undoubtedly shock everyone.]
[The Heavenly Demon Sect understood the principle of “lowering before raising.” If successful, their reputation would soar to new heights.]
[And indeed, they succeeded. This is the Heavenly Demon Sect—powerful, ruthless, and utterly insane!]
