During the period, everyone become busy training in martial arts to notice the passage of time, but competition was intense, as the families each was trying to send the best resources for their children.

Purity Continent, Purity Sect.
A figure of a woman walked towards the massive tree standing in the center of the continent. If Qin Zhi saw her, she would recognize the womam as the person that visited her on the balcony hidden in the shadows.
One could see white everywhere, even the buildings were this color.
Standing at the Ancestral Purity Tree, the sect master of the Purity Sect was talking to some woman in a purple dress, when a woman's figure rushed in. She blended perfectly within the shadows.
She then knelt down and spoke, "sect master!"
The sect master didn't even turn back, she just spoke, "You are finally back? How did the tasks I assign yoh go? Did Qin Zhu make things difficult for you?"
The sect master didn't send away the woman in a purple dress, clearly allowing her to listen to their conversation.
The figure in the shadows held out her hands respectfully before answering.
"No! She didn't make things difficult, but she also didn't agree to the terms I proposed." The woman in the shadow replied. She didn't dare make up things, and had to report what had happened in detail without even hidding anything.
Then there was knocking on the door.
Dong!
Dong!
"Just enter!" The sect master of the Purity Sect replied without even caring about the interruption it had caused. It seemed as though she had expected someone to come.
Seven white haired figures of women walked into the room after opening the door, then carefully closed it behind them. They turned to look at the sect master, and then the woman in purple dress with some slight frowns.
The women were the elders of the Purity Sect and had been called in by their sect master. It was just that they didn't understand why the stranger was in their sect master's office when they were about to discuss important issues.
"Sect master! Who is this?" One of the elders asked, as they walked toward.
"Don't worry she is a friend, and has some useful information to tell you later. In that way, there is no need to hide what we are discussing from her." She spoke as she looked towards the woman.
The woman in purple had an almost identical appearance to Qin Zhu.
Seeing the everyone had gathered, she motioned the woman in the shadows to continue talking.
"The situation in Lu Tian city is as we thought. Qin Zhi indeed got married to a Wang family descendant. They even have a child together. But the the biggest issue is not this, rather she seemed unmoved by the conditions I proposed to her."
"Unreasonable!"
"We are being kind enough to offer her such a chance!"
"What an ungrateful brat!''
"Who does she think she is?"
The elders in the room were angry, and the reason for this was simple, they had that ability to defy her fate and allow her to rebuild her foundation to an even better one. But she actually didn't give them face and refused again and again.
"Heh, perhaps she thinks she had married into the Wang clan she doesn't need to give our Purity Sect face anymore?" Another older woman spoke up with frustration. They indeed wanted to use her as a chess piece, but the chess piece actually dared to want to jump out of the board. That was considered unforgivable to them.
The Purity Sect was not always this way, but it has changed over the years and the sect master watching all this from the main seat couldn't help but sigh.
'We have actually reached this point of controlling and manipulating even our own disciples but what results have we obtained so far?' she could see things clearly, but sometimes being able to see things didn't matter. She was supposed to be the person with the highest position in the room, but the decisions made sometimes didn't have anything to do with her.
"That Qin Zhu is really rebelling! We should bring her back and teach her a lesson on behalf of her elders!" Another elder spoke out and the moment her words came out, everyone in the room fell silent.
"Elders! Calm down! I think you should at least listen to what my friend has to say before making a decision." The sect master finally interjected.
She didn't seem to care about the woman in purple seeing the arguments between the elders.
Actually no one in the room took the Lu clan seriously. It was probably just a small clan and that was evident from the size of the city. As long as two elders left they could easily deal with someone like Qin Zhu that didn't have any cultivation.
The confidence obviously came from the fact that the Lu Tian City was far away from the Wang clan.
The internal strive between humans was not something shocking and would happen from time to time.
Only in this Abyssal world, it was not allowed for clans to go out and launch large scale wars. If that happened there would consequences, and the same applies even to powerful families as the Wang clan.
The strongest organization in the world was the Abyssal Empire. It had the strongest power in the world and suppressed all the clans and Sects. The Abyssal Empire did not participate in the conflicts and wars between smaller clans, but they paid attention to the stronger ones that had given birth to strong experts.
The strongest experts in the Abyssal Empire all came from all over the world.
The management of the Abyssal Empire was very strict and thus, even the strongest factions could only scheme against each other but the competition even life and death battles between the members was not banned.
The world where strength is respected obviously it would not be a good idea to suppress others too far.
The Purity Sect didn't dare act too higher profile that was even more so in another continent. It could end up making matters become too serious.
The woman that had been silent all this while finally spoke, "Actually! None of you need to head to the Lu Tian City. Qin Zhu has already entered the Wang clan. Considering her talent, she was recognized by those old guys in that clan. She will recieve the same treatment as Mei Lin from the Mei clan that married into the Wang clan. All of you here should know something about her right?" She looked at the elders but even with her face covered by a white gauze. In her eyes one could see amusement. She wondered if this group of women would dare attack the Wang clan.
"What?"
"How dare they?"
"They don't take out Sect seriously?"
