Seeing the person before him act like that, Ye Lin slowly lowered his long saber.
Meanwhile, Kuang Feng retreated little by little, watching Ye Lin with full vigilance.
"Senior... Junior Brother, thank you for showing mercy. Since there's nothing else, I'll take my leave now."
"Wait."
Kuang Feng turned to leave, but Ye Lin suddenly spoke.
Hearing this, Kuang Feng stopped, his eyes fixed on Ye Lin, his muscles tensed, ready to flee if anything seemed amiss.
"Are there any rules in this Outer Sect?"
"Rules? No, this Nameless Mountain is vast beyond measure, its boundaries impossible to find. The whereabouts of every Outer Sect Disciple are not controlled by anyone."
Despite his doubts, Kuang Feng still explained in detail.
"Oh, right. I see Junior Brother is a new Disciple. I'll tell you everything I know."
"Every so often, the ten groups will hold some activities. Those who perform exceptionally well will receive a large amount of resources."
"And this Outer Sect has an annual assessment. For example, if you were in the Early Stage of Golden Core Stage when you first joined, and your Realm hasn't changed at all after a year, then you'll be expelled from Nameless Mountain."
After Kuang Feng finished speaking, Ye Lin was slightly surprised. One minor stage per year? For the Golden Core Stage, each cultivation advancement is as difficult as ascending to the heavens.
How difficult is it to advance once a year?
"Advance one minor stage a year? I'm afraid not many people can accomplish that, can they?"
Ye Lin said softly. Without the aid of Heaven And Earth Treasure, he wouldn't dare say he could Breakthrough one minor stage in a year.
"Of course, it's not that rigid. As long as there's progress, it's fine. There will be specialists to inspect it then."
"Alright, Junior Brother, I'm done. I'll take my leave now."
Kuang Feng said tentatively, then fled with an extremely fast escape light.
Ye Lin gently beckoned with his hand, and Kuang Feng's long saber floated before his right hand. With a light flick, the long saber transformed into a streak of light and chased after him.
"Returning it to you."
Whoosh!
With a sound of rushing air, the long saber directly pierced Kuang Feng's arm.
A scream came from afar, and Kuang Feng's figure vanished.
For those in the Golden Core Stage, a broken arm is a minor injury, let alone this.
This saber strike was a warning.
"It's time to go back now. I need to refine the Water Spirit Fruit and raise the grade of my Spiritual Root."
"Inferior Spiritual Root. If I don't improve it, I might never Breakthrough to the Nascent Soul Stage in my lifetime."
The next moment, Ye Lin stepped on Evil Slayer and flew towards the distant horizon, disappearing from the Yunwu Mountain Range in the blink of an eye.
And from beginning to end, the few cultivating figures in the Yunwu Mountain Range had not moved.
Upon arriving at his dwelling, Ye Lin found an acquaintance.
"Senior Brother."
Ye Lin walked forward and bowed to Xuan Hu, who was talking to a young man beside him.
"Mm, remember to gather at the plaza in three days. The people from Group Four are causing trouble, and conveniently, your information states you're in the Golden Core Stage, which is decent assistance."
"As long as we take down the people from Group Four, all their resources will be ours."
"Remember, three days from now."
Listening to Xuan Hu, Ye Lin was utterly speechless.
Good heavens, this is truly a bandit's den, isn't it?
"Yes, Senior Brother."
Ye Lin cupped his fists towards Xuan Hu, then looked at the young man in front of Xuan Hu.
It wasn't a big deal not to look, but when he did... it was terrifying.

【Smiling Tiger】: You appear to be a gentle Young Master, but in reality, your heart is extremely dark. You specifically target those around you; none who become your friends will have a good end.
【Sword Dao Divinity】: In the Dao of the sword, you are the undisputed leader; no one in the world can surpass you.
【Innate Sword Physique】: You possess one of the powerful Physiques from the ancient era, naturally affinity with long swords. Once Awakened, you are invincible among those of the same Realm.

【Son of Heaven's Favor】: You are favored by the Heavenly Dao. Those who wish to kill you will ultimately only be killed by you. Those who offend you will ultimately not die a good death, including the Family behind them.
Looking at this person's panel, Ye Lin was greatly shocked. Another Son of Heaven's Favor?
Moreover, this Son of Heaven's Favor is on the same level as Lin Zisheng.
Thinking of this, Ye Lin's lips curved upwards. Son of Heaven's Favor, is it? I'm going to plunder Sons of Heaven's Favor. My future days won't be lonely.
If I don't plunder you, this Son of Heaven's Favor, into my son, then my name isn't Ye Lin.
"Junior Brother Ye, this is Junior Brother Li Xiaoyao, a new Disciple who just joined our Nameless Mountain today. You two should get acquainted."
Xuan Hu looked at Ye Lin and pointed at Li Xiaoyao.
Seeing Ye Lin, Li Xiaoyao immediately approached him with a smile.
"Senior Brother Ye, I'll have to ask for your guidance in the future."
"Hahaha, not at all, Junior Brother Li, don't say that. I've only been here for a short while myself."
Looking at such an enthusiastic Li Xiaoyao, if it were an ordinary person, they would have been misled long ago. But Ye Lin, who had seen Li Xiaoyao's panel, didn't think so.
He hadn't forgotten Li Xiaoyao's so-called 'Smiling Tiger' fate principle.
Those around him would all come to a bad end, and their deaths would be unusually ugly.
It's better to stay far away from this person.
"Alright, since you two are so cordial, you should catch up properly. In three days, come to the plaza to gather together."
"I still need to notify others."
Seeing Ye Lin and Li Xiaoyao getting along so well, Xuan Hu nodded with satisfaction.
The reason he previously disliked taking in new people was that new people were Peerless Paragons in the outside world, and had long developed an attitude of being second only to Heaven and first themselves.
There used to be many such people; they wouldn't behave without a good beating.
And Prodigies, they don't like to lose. If you beat them, they'll pester you every day afterward.
They just have to get their lost Face back.
So in the end, he didn't like new people; they were too troublesome to manage.
But now it's different. First Ye Lin, then Li Xiaoyao. These two don't put on airs, which makes him feel much more at ease.
As for Kuang Feng and Tang Liuli? Foundation Establishment Stage. They don't catch his eye; he doesn't even spare them a glance.
Only those in the Golden Core Stage are worthy of being on equal footing with him.
