Chapter 25 – The disciples of Beast-Taming Peak are in big trouble
"Do they think the sect is their home? Who gave them such audacity!" The Third Elderess was furious.
The Ninth Elderess quickly comforted her, "Sister, every grievance has its perpetrator. I believe this has nothing to do with these two young disciples; it's entirely the fault of the Beast-Taming Peak. We must deal with this matter harshly, or today it's Maple Leaf Plaza, and tomorrow it'll be right at the entrance of our cave abodes."
"Exactly!" The Third Elderess took out a communication token and sent a soul message through it.
"I'll have Old Six come over right now to see the fine disciples he's taught!"
Before long, the Sixth Elder arrived in a rush.
"Sister, what do you need from me?"
"Ninth Sister, you too..."
Before the Sixth Elder could finish his greeting, the Third Elderess grabbed his ear and dragged him to the edge of Maple Leaf Plaza.
"Sister, what are you doing? There are two juniors here; give me some face."
The Third Elderess angrily pointed at Maple Leaf Plaza and demanded, "Tell me, what is this place?"
The Sixth Elder glanced around and blurted out, "Isn't this the sect's cesspool? I must say, I've been in the sect for hundreds of years, and this is the first time I've seen it!"
"Sister, this cesspool is quite interesting, even planted with many trees!"
"I'll throw you into it if you keep talking nonsense!"
The Third Elderess pointed to a large sign nearby, "Tell me what this is."
The Sixth Elder paused, then slowly read the words on it.
"Maple Leaf Plaza?"
"I must say, this cesspool has quite an elegant name. Our Xuantian Sect truly has a profound cultural heritage!"
The Third Elderess: "You..."
"Pfft~" The Ninth Elderess burst into laughter.
Qin Yu went through all the sad events of his past and present in his mind, barely suppressing his rising smile.
He turned his head and saw Li Zhengtong about to laugh out loud.
Qin Yu quickly pinched Li Zhengtong's belly hard until his face twisted in pain, and only then did Qin Yu let go.
The Ninth Elderess said, "Sixth Brother, this is a plaza, and these trees are maple trees. In autumn, the leaves turn red and look beautiful."
"Huh? Leaves? Where are the leaves?"
"The leaves aren't important. What's important is the filth on the ground, which is the handiwork of your Beast-Taming Peak's outer sect disciples!"
"Look at how capable your Beast-Taming Peak's disciples are, treating the entire Xuantian Sect like an open-air toilet, using servant disciples as cleaners. If the servant disciples complain a little, they get scolded or even beaten. They're even more arrogant than the Sect Master!"
"Huh?" The Sixth Elder was greatly shocked.
"Our first rule at Beast-Taming Peak is to prohibit spirit beasts from defecating indiscriminately. Those outer sect disciples usually behave well in their inner sect classes!"
The Sixth Elder observed for a while and discovered that the excrement was from spirit beasts that had consumed a special elixir.
This was not just a matter of indiscriminate defecation; it was outright bullying!
The Sixth Elder was furious, not expecting his disciples to be so malicious.
"Order the outer sect disciples to come to Maple Leaf Plaza immediately!"
The Sixth Elder sent a message to the teacher currently lecturing the disciples.
Then, the Sixth Elder looked at Qin Yu and Li Zhengtong.
The two immediately stood up straight and bowed, "Disciples greet the three elders."
From their conversation, if Qin Yu couldn't guess the identities of these three, he must have been kicked by a donkey.
The Third Elderess kept saying 'your Beast-Taming Peak,' making it clear that this man was the Peak Master of Beast-Taming Peak, one of the twelve principal elders of the sect, the Sixth Elder.
Below the Sect Master of Xuantian Sect were twelve principal elders, and below them were hundreds of ordinary elders, each responsible for various affairs of the sect.
Those who could stand on equal footing with the Sixth Elder were naturally also among the twelve principal elders. Based on previous titles, it was easy to deduce that these two beautiful women were the Third Elderess and the Ninth Elderess.
The sect had a total of twelve principal elders, and three of them had gathered at this small Maple Leaf Plaza.
These were figures who could shake the entire Cultivation World with a stomp of their feet, yet they were here to handle a problem for a servant disciple like him.
Qin Yu didn't believe this was a coincidence!
These people didn't come early or late; they came precisely when they couldn't deal with the Beast-Taming Peak disciples.
This inevitably reminded Qin Yu of Li Zhengtong's 'Survival Against All Odds' talent effect.
[Survival Against All Odds (A-Rank)]: Favored by the heavens, always able to turn danger into safety, finding life in desperate situations!
'Is an A-Rank talent truly this terrifying!'
"Oh, why aren't you calling me Senior Sister anymore?" The Ninth Elderess teased Qin Yu.
Qin Yu took the opportunity to flatter, "It's because the two elderesses are as beautiful as heavenly immortals, causing this disciple to momentarily fail to recognize."
The Ninth Elderess was amused and laughed heartily.
Soon, the Beast-Taming Peak disciples came rushing over and immediately bowed upon seeing the three elders.
"Disciples greet the Peak Master and the two elderesses!"
The Sixth Elder said sternly, "Do you know why you were summoned here?"
Kong Tianjiao looked troubled and said weakly, "Disciple knows his mistake!"
The other disciples behind him echoed, "Disciple knows his mistake!"
"What is the first prohibition order of Beast-Taming Peak?"
"Pro...prohibit spirit beasts from defecating indiscriminately!"
"And what are the consequences of violating this prohibition?"
The disciples hung their heads, not daring to speak further.
The Sixth Elder said calmly, "Those with serious offenses will be expelled from Beast-Taming Peak. Do you think your offense is serious?"
The disciples quickly kowtowed, "Peak Master, we know our mistake. Please give us another chance."
Qin Yu sighed.

'The law does not punish the masses. If this were the act of one or a few, they would surely be expelled from Beast-Taming Peak.'
'But when everyone is involved, the punishment is bound to be much lighter.'
'However, while they may escape death, they cannot escape punishment. It depends on how harsh the Sixth Elder will be!'
The Sixth Elder continued, "This behavior is extremely serious, but considering your usual good conduct, I will give you another chance."
"Thank you, Peak Master!"
"You have one day to clean up everything, and you are sentenced to six months of confinement in your cave abodes."
"Additionally, each servant disciple who cleaned up your mess will receive fifty contribution points as compensation."
The Beast-Taming Peak disciples felt a pang of pain.
They had just spent a lot yesterday and had few contribution points left. Now they had to pay out more.
Everyone looked resentfully at Kong Tianjiao.
'If it weren't for him, none of us would be punished!'
"How many of you cleaned this up?" The Sixth Elder asked Qin Yu.
Qin Yu answered honestly, "Elder, I know of six, and some who were farther away didn't come into contact with it."
"Alright, pay 300 contribution points now!" The Sixth Elder said sternly.
Kong Tianjiao and the others pooled their points and eventually transferred 300 contribution points to Qin Yu, who then distributed them to Li Zhengtong and the others.
The token used to open the cave abode had the function of storing and distributing contribution points.
Servant disciples worked hard for a month to earn just 10 contribution points; 50 points were equivalent to five months' income.
'I've struck it rich. Is this the benefit of the "Thousand Trials and Tribulations" talent feedback?'
[Thousand Trials and Tribulations (A-Rank)]: A jade must be carved to become a vessel, and a person must be honed to become talented. Only through sufficient trials can one become a true strong person... Frequently encountering difficulties and life-threatening crises, but crises and opportunities coexist. Surviving a crisis brings equivalent benefits.
Qin Yu truly witnessed the terrifying combination of 'Thousand Trials and Tribulations' and 'Survival Against All Odds.'
It's like reaping rewards while lying down.
Qin Yu also realized that the benefits weren't limited to Li Zhengtong; everyone involved in the incident had a chance to gain benefits.
After the matter was resolved, the Sixth Elder said sternly, "This is the first time I've caught you, and it will also be the last. If there's a next time, your cultivation will be abolished, and you'll be expelled from Xuantian Sect."
"Disciples will never dare to repeat this!"
