Half a month's time quickly passed.

After diligent cultivation, Tang Tian's mid-stage Foundation Building realm had become completely stable, continuously advancing towards the late stage of Foundation Building.

In addition, he had mastered dozens of different techniques, and in terms of understanding and comprehension of the Dao, he was no less than Gu Xiaoxue, that little freak.

Sometimes, during their discussions on the Dao, he could even point out a few details that she had overlooked, which made Tang Tian feel extremely satisfied.

But this girl had an incredibly strong learning ability, and her growth speed was not to be underestimated. Tang Tian would always complain that she was too absorbed in her studies and should balance work and rest, and take more breaks.

After saying that, he would dive into the cultivation chamber and immerse himself in intense cultivation.

Under such an atmosphere of cultivation, even the sisters Lan Yu and Lv Zhu couldn't help but make efforts to improve their strength. Their progress was rapid.

Although they only had a nine-ring talent, there seemed to be some mysterious connection between the two of them, which allowed them to cultivate at a faster rate than ordinary nine-ring cultivators, and their comprehension of the Dao was exceptionally smooth.

"I can't believe it, even a nine-ring talent has become 'only'."

Tang Tian silently complained about himself.

Today was the day of the Five Peaks Exchange Meeting.

The members of the Purple Bamboo Courtyard rarely put aside their cultivation and started playing games under the old locust tree.

They were playing a game called "Nian Dao Pai", where two people formed a team and cooperated to attack another team. It required a deep understanding of the Dao and a tacit cooperation.

Tang Tian and Gu Xiaoxue were a team, while Lan Yu and Lv Zhu were another team.

If someone lost, they would have to stick a piece of paper on their face.

In no time, Tang Tian and Gu Xiaoxue's faces were covered with paper strips.

Although they had a deeper understanding of the Dao, their level of cooperation was far inferior to the twin sisters Lan Yu. It was as if they shared one brain, with seamless coordination. Every time they reached the later stages, Tang Tian and Gu Xiaoxue couldn't find a way to win.

"Damn it!"

"Did your eyes grow on your butt? I clearly used the fire technique, and you sprayed water at me directly. If you want to kill me, just say it!"

Once again, they found themselves at a disadvantage, and Tang Tian couldn't help but complain.

However, Gu Xiaoxue was not willing to back down in this game that determined victory or defeat. She shouted, "I started setting up the water technique from the third step, and you couldn't even see that."

"I even hinted at you in the previous step, but you turned around and wiped me out."

"And you say I'm countering you, you're my enemy from a past life!"

Tang Tian coldly snorted and, after being prompted, he finally noticed Gu Xiaoxue's layout, realizing that he had indeed overlooked it.

But how could he easily admit his mistake? A person can die, but their mouth must remain stubborn!

"You're a terrible teammate, no wonder we can't win!"

Gu Xiaoxue also refused to back down. "You're the terrible teammate!"

"Being your teammate is like being cursed for eight lifetimes!"

The two of them bantered back and forth, then each tore off a strip of paper and stuck it on their foreheads.

"Let's play again!"

Tang Tian didn't want to admit defeat and wanted to continue the battle.

However, at that moment, someone triggered the formation outside.

Waving his hand, Tang Tian deactivated the formation, and a familiar figure walked in.

It was Wang Ziyu.

"Tang Xiong, the Five Peaks Exchange Meeting is about to start, you..."

Before he could finish speaking, he was dumbfounded by the appearance of Tang Tian and the others.

"Um... what are you guys doing?"

Tang Tian quickly took off the paper strip from his face and walked up to him, awkwardly smiling. "Nothing, just playing a game."

Wang Ziyu looked puzzled, glancing at the three of them, then at Tang Tian, and whispered, "Tang Xiong, are you okay?"

"Being with three beautiful and charming ladies, and you're playing this kind of game?"

After saying that, he looked Tang Tian up and down, as if suspecting some kind of ability that Tang Tian possessed.

Tang Tian coughed twice. "I've had too much meat, so I occasionally need some vegetables to balance it out."

"By the way, I've been waiting for you. Let's go to the exchange meeting."

He quickly changed the topic.

Shortly after, a few people quickly cleaned up the battlefield and left the Purple Bamboo Courtyard.

"This conference seems to be different from usual, with more people attending."

"Almost all the famous guys are here."

On the way, Prince Yu said.

"What's different?"

Tang Tian asked.

Prince Yu shook his head, "Hard to say, but I feel it has something to do with the Hundred Gates Battle."

Tang Tian nodded.

In the past month, while he had been practicing in the dojo and the Purple Bamboo Courtyard, Li Hong outside had been busy collecting a large amount of information for him. He finally understood some basic information about the Qingyue Sect.

The Qingyue Sect was founded over four hundred years ago and is considered a relatively new sect.

However, it did not start from scratch but quickly rose with the support of another more powerful sect.

That sect is called the Cloud Summit Heavenly Mansion.

It is a super sect with true immortals and has a vast and extremely powerful influence.

In a sense, the Qingyue Sect is just a subordinate sect under the Cloud Summit Heavenly Mansion.

This news unraveled the doubts that had been lingering in Tang Tian's mind.

Why could the Qingyue Sect buy status and not worry about power shifting?

With the existence of the Cloud Summit Heavenly Mansion, the so-called power struggles within the Qingyue Sect were nothing more than children playing house.

As long as the Cloud Summit Heavenly Mansion remained intact, even if the power structure of the Qingyue Sect completely changed, it wouldn't be a big deal. Those who dared to disobey could be replaced.

This is the oppression of absolute strength.

And what Prince Yu just mentioned, the Hundred Gates Battle, is actually a promotion conference held every five years for all the subordinate sects under the Cloud Summit Heavenly Mansion.

Any disciple who achieves outstanding results can be promoted to the Cloud Summit Heavenly Mansion and enter a broader stage.

However, this Hundred Gates Battle has little to do with Tang Tian.

Because there are very strict participation criteria, the first requirement being that honorary disciples are not eligible.

After hearing this news, Tang Tian fell silent for a long time, and in the end, he could only sigh deeply, feeling helpless.

But he quickly cheered up, anyway, he only needed to spend some points, it didn't matter where he was.

"There is a little over a year left until the Hundred Gates Battle. The Young Master will definitely have something to say."

Prince Yu said.

Tang Tian nodded and didn't make any comments.

Just talk, it has nothing to do with me.

His only goal today was the so-called "Merit Conference".

If he could successfully trigger the system's return, he would definitely spend his points lavishly.

During the chat, the group of people climbed to the main peak and arrived at the venue for the exchange conference.

They were already close to the peak, with pavilions and towers, surrounded by ethereal mist, like a fairyland.

Just as Tang Tian was about to enter, he suddenly saw a familiar figure.

"Shentu Feng?"

"He's also here for the exchange conference?"

Looking at Shentu Feng walking in smoothly, Tang Tian was surprised.

Prince Yu smiled and said, "See, I told you it's very lively today, with a lot of people coming."

Tang Tian curled his lips, "If even these nobodies can come in, I suddenly feel that this qualification is not so precious."

Prince Yu looked embarrassed, "Don't say that, after all, he is a person under Lu Changge, it's normal for him to have the qualification."

"But don't underestimate this exchange conference just because of him. The background of many honorary disciples may not be worse than yours."

Tang Tian nodded.

Then, they reported Mo Xiaoxiao's name and entered the venue smoothly.
