Chapter 85

The Fourth Senior Sister was never in the sect; she had gone out for training.

As for the Eldest Senior Brother, Zhao Zhengping, he had only cultivation in his heart, staying behind closed doors all day and not interested in outside matters. Coupled with his own personality, he hadn't come to the kitchen either.

Except for these two, now, whenever mealtime arrived, the entire Divine Jianfeng was like a battlefield—it was intense.

Starting from the mountain peak, one figure after another rushed toward the foot of the mountain like madmen, all sorts of movement techniques pushed to the limit, occasionally accompanied by some small tricks.

Especially after the inner sect elders joined in, the competition became even more intense.

Don't look at these inner sect elders as old-generation powerhouses; when it came to grabbing seats, they were truly vigorous in their old age. The young disciples were not only less powerful than them, but they also had fewer tricks up their sleeves.

Ginger is indeed spicier when it's old; when it came to methods, these old things were definitely a step ahead.

This could be seen from Until Hong Zun—when had Until Hong Zun ever returned empty-handed from the kitchen? He grabbed a seat every time and had never failed.

But this made it miserable for the many disciples.

Not just servant disciples, but even outer sect disciples, and even inner sect disciples, now, if they were not careful, they might return empty-handed and eat nothing at all.

After all, each meal only had enough for one thousand people; no seat meant no food.

It was another brutal battle. Ranked in the front were Until Hong Zun and a group of inner sect elders, followed by the three personal disciples—Liu Shuang, Xu Jie, and Lu Youyou—and only then came the outer sect deacons, inner sect disciples, outer sect disciples, and servant disciples.

Many people who didn't grab a seat looked at those in front with resentment and couldn't help but complain.

"A bunch of animals. How can their movement techniques be so fast?"

"It's not just the movement techniques. Someone just used a binding hand technique to suck me in. How can their methods be so dirty?"

"It's hateful. I haven't eaten for three days. Don't these animals know how to yield? What happened to the traditional virtues of our Dao One Sect?"

"To hell with yielding. Instead of saying these things, you'd better cultivate properly. I heard that many people have been cultivating like their lives depend on it recently, just to be more certain when grabbing a seat."

Who could have imagined that for the sake of a meal, the entire Divine Jianfeng would become so competitive?

Whether it was inner sect, outer sect, or even servant disciples, they all started cultivating like their lives depended on it, and the reason was simply to be able to eat a meal from the kitchen and have the ability to grab a seat further ahead.

Now, all the disciples of Divine Jianfeng, except for eating, almost only had cultivation left. The diligence of each one was enough to make people feel despair.

But there was no other way; if you didn't work hard, you couldn't even eat a meal, and you could only watch others eat while you drooled on the side.

A disciple sighed.

"It's really getting harder and harder. I just want to eat a meal." ===== CHAPTER 86 =====
