You have to know that this batch of disciples in the Purple Sun Gate is not just us; there are also examinees from the surrounding six counties. With so many people entering the sect at the same time, and the cake only being so big, disputes are inevitable. Only by uniting can we make better progress.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I don't oppose it either, but who will be the leader?\" Yun Feng asked coldly.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>At the table, a playful look flashed in the eyes of several people.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cao Rong’s proposal meant he definitely wanted to be the boss. Yun Feng asking so confrontationally meant he definitely didn't accept Cao Rong as the boss.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Naturally, whoever is strongest will be the leader. If you let someone weaker than you lead you, would you be willing?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cao Rong’s gaze swept over everyone at the table, \"I think no one has any objections to this point, right? If any of you can defeat me, the leader will be yours.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the future, after entering the Purple Sun Gate, it will be the same; whoever is strongest will be the leader of the force.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was already quiet all around.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although only the people at Cao Rong’s table were talking, everyone present was an expert at the Great Completion of Qi Gathering, and they could hear the wind blowing and grass moving within three zhang clearly, so naturally, they heard their conversation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The strongest person serving as leader—this point is very good; how could anyone oppose it?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It doesn't matter who is the leader, as long as they are stronger than me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I am convinced by Senior Brother Cao Rong serving as leader.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Many people immediately agreed, but some people’s faces were very ugly, and they didn't want to join such a force.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But if Cao Rong and the others joined forces to form a force, even if they were unwilling, they could only grit their teeth and accept it; otherwise, there would be no good outcome.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fortunately, Yun Feng seemed to be at odds with Cao Rong. If he opposed it or made a scene with Cao Rong, the matter might not be able to proceed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yun Feng snorted coldly, \"You only won by one move that day. Now that almost two months have passed, do you think you can still win against me?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cao Rong laughed, \"Simple. We didn't fight enough that day; let’s just fight another round. Whoever wins will be the leader. How about that?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That suits me perfectly!\" Yun Feng stood up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We are about to set off for the Purple Sun Gate. If Brother Yun and Brother Cao fight, it won't be good if either of you gets injured. I think the two of you are evenly matched in strength; why don't you both serve as leaders?\" Gu Haoming said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As soon as these words were spoken, another group of people agreed, thinking it would be better for the two marrow-cleansing experts, Yun Feng and Cao Rong, to serve as leaders together.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Both were marrow-cleansing experts and young masters of the four major families of Qingyuan; they would definitely be able to lead everyone to flourish in the Purple Sun Gate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So they were putting on a double act here,\" Xu Yang realized.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With Cao Rong and Yun Feng joining forces, the momentum was built up; who else would dare to oppose the formation of the force?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Brother Yun’s strength is indeed evenly matched with mine; I agree with this proposal,\" Cao Rong said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yun Feng’s expression also looked better, \"As long as I am not under you, I agree too.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then the matter is settled,\" Cao Rong laughed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the blink of an eye, even the leaders were decided; many people didn't even have time to voice their opinions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A faint smile appeared on the corner of Gu Haoming’s mouth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Ze had a dark face!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kong Yu’s expression was also somewhat unnatural.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Han Xing’s expression remained unchanged, and he laughed, \"The two of you, wait a moment. First, say whether it is voluntary or mandatory to join. With so many people, we must discuss a charter before telling everyone.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cao Rong said, \"Naturally, it is voluntary to join, but I think there shouldn't be anyone unwilling, right? We are considering it for everyone; otherwise, with the strength of Brother Yun and myself, who would dare to bully us in the Purple Sun Gate?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Immediately, there was another chorus of agreement, calling Cao Rong righteous and saying he was thinking for everyone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, there were also people who remained silent; everyone knew in their hearts whether the young master of the Cao family was a righteous person.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not many people were fools who thought Cao Rong really wanted to protect everyone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was just that at this time, except for figures like Han Xing, not many people dared to come out and sing a different tune from Cao Rong.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Han Xing added, \"Then what is the purpose of the force? Is it just to unite against foreign enemies and avoid being bullied, or is it like the gangs in the city, going to fight and kill others to compete for resources?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cao Rong said, \"If we martial artists want to be strong, we naturally have to compete with others for resources. Competing for resources naturally involves fighting. If you don't even dare to fight, I think you’d better stay in Qingyuan obediently.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Many people were moved by this sentence; martial artists are brave and bloodthirsty, and many people didn't care about these things.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Han Xing shook his head, \"If the nature is like the gangs in the city, please allow me to refuse.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A flash of displeasure crossed Cao Rong’s eyes, but he maintained his smile and said, \"Brother Han, please feel free. Our gang will not force anyone to join.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Qin is also not convenient to participate!\" Qin Ze stood up and said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Another genius who had also comprehended hidden force, named Yue Gui, also stood up and expressed that he did not wish to join.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Following closely, Kong Yu also stood up and cupped his hands, expressing that he already had an alliance with others and it was not convenient to join.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for Lu Ren, he was cultivated by the Gu family, so naturally, he moved forward and retreated together with Gu Haoming.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And Gu Haoming was clearly already in the same camp as Cao Rong.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cao Rong smiled without warmth and indicated it didn't matter, then said loudly, \"Brother Yun and I intend to establish the Sharp Wind Hall, taking the meaning of being sharp and enterprising, rising with the wind. If anyone is willing to join, you can come over and register now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From now on, whether in Qingyuan or the Purple Sun Gate, you and I, Cao Rong, will be brothers who live and die together.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Since Young Master Cao thinks so highly of us, what are we hesitating about?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Being brothers with Young Master Cao and Young Master Yun is our honor.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Brother Cao is righteous; with his status, it is we who are taking advantage.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a whoosh, many people stood up immediately and walked toward Cao Rong.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Shun and the others, who were sitting at the same table as Xu Yang, stood up without hesitation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Yong hesitated for a moment, but also stood up. He had already joined Gu Haoming’s camp, so naturally, he had to help Cao Rong’s Sharp Wind Hall build momentum.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And Zhao Zhifei and Jiang Ping also stood up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the table, only Xu Yang and Sun Tao didn't move, which was very conspicuous.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Yang’s gaze swept across; out of sixty Dragon-Ascending geniuses, more than a hundred people stood up, intending to join the Sharp Wind Hall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Junior Brother Sun Tao, what are you hesitating about? With Cao Rong and Yun Feng as leaders, and figures like Gu Haoming and Junior Brother Lu Ren, isn't the Sharp Wind Hall worth you joining?\" Jiang Ping frowned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Senior Brother Jiang, please allow me to consider it,\" Sun Tao said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Immediately after, he stood up and left to discuss with the ally his family had found for him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Xu Yang, fighting alone in the Purple Sun Gate will be difficult. Lu Ren and I are both here; how about the three of us continue to support each other?\" Zhang Yong said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The relationship between the three was very special, and now that he and Lu Ren would both join the Sharp Wind Hall, he also hoped Xu Yang would become a member of the Sharp Wind Hall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Allow me to consider it!\" Xu Yang didn't refuse directly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But this was just an excuse. If he joined the Sharp Wind Hall, wouldn't he be a fool for having refused Cao’s conditions earlier?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Progress together,\" \"brothers who live and die together.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He only believed that there was no profit without effort!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before you fall into the pit, the words are beautiful and pleasant; once you jump into the pit of fire, it’s just a matter of a single sentence to manipulate you however they want.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Everyone, Kong Yu and I intend to establish the Fledgling Eagle Society. The purpose of this society is to unite against outsiders, share information, and exchange resources. It will not force members to do anything. Those who are interested in joining, please come over now,\" Han Xing suddenly said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In an instant, there was another commotion among the crowd.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Han Xing, who was at the half-step marrow-cleansing stage, plus Kong Yu, who was hailed as the number one in bone structure for this session, had great appeal. Some people who had originally intended to join the Sharp Wind Hall immediately backed down and turned to Han Xing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, besides the appeal of the two, there was another point: the Fledgling Eagle Society had clarified its purpose, and that sentence about not forcing people—not everyone wanted to be someone else’s subordinate and be ordered around.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Who among those who ascended the dragon in the martial arts examination wasn't a proud person?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Yang discovered that some people who hadn't been moved before also stood up and walked toward Han Xing and Kong Yu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, there were still people who didn't want to join either the Sharp Wind Hall or the Fledgling Eagle Society; he wasn't being unconventional.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"These people discussed it privately.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Fledgling Eagle Society—Xu Yang was somewhat moved.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, only somewhat. He had a grudge against the Fierce Wind Hall, having beaten Zhu Yang to death on the examination ring; naturally, he couldn't join the gang created by Kong Yu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And since they had already come up with leaders, he didn't believe Han Xing and Kong Yu didn't have ambitions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Xu Yang, come over for a chat, how about it?\" In the distance, Qin Ze suddenly spoke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Yang hesitated for a moment and walked toward Qin Ze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Ze was the third in this session. Although it was because he had picked up a bargain, his strength was unquestionable; even Gu Haoming might not be his opponent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Beside Qin Ze, there were already several people.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One was Yue Gui, who had also comprehended hidden force; another was the fifth young lady of the Liu family, Liu Qian; and the last person, Xu Yang remembered, was a disciple of the Crane Cry Fist Gym named Chen Jiang, whose strength was very strong—an expert second only to Qin Ze and Gu Haoming, who had made it into the top ten in the martial arts examination.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And the Crane Cry Fist Gym was also one of the top three major martial arts gyms in Qingyuan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Greetings, Brother Qin, Fifth Young Lady...\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1966,"2026-06-16T12:17:41.122Z","2026-06-16T12:23:14.066Z",1,"Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite","ab5d3d76c2223d14a1f57b08c6aebd0c93c84547bcc0610d9ecb87b562e1a78f","starting-with-the-diamond-exercise-to-achieve-sa-chapter-101","starting-with-the-diamond-exercise-to-achieve-sa-chapter-99",410,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fstarting-with-the-diamond-exercise-to-achieve-sa-cover.jpg"]
