Somehow it seemed that the elders who were from the soul-eater organization were gathering more and more, so Sword Sect elders always denied these invitations and it was only at a meeting that Mount Fei Sect organized because none of those elders were invited.
These elders from the soul-eater organization were clever, and they used these refusals from the Sword Sect elders to show that they thought they were better than the others and didn't want to be around the elders of the weaker sects.
If it wasn't for Zhang Yi's warning these elders would go to a few meetings just to put an end to those rumors that could be bad for the sect's reputation, but knowing what might happen, the elders would prefer Sword Sect to look bad than fall into a trap.
After several days of meeting and seeing that the Sword Sect elders always refused, these elders from the infiltrated soul-eater organization eventually acted and a Justice Sect elder and an elder from another minor sect were eventually killed.
Hearing of this the Sword Sect elders knew that Zhang Yi was really right and that they had elders who were from the organization of the soul-eater infiltrators, they were happy to believe in Zhang Yi otherwise he could be one of them who ended up dead.
It seemed that someone provoked the Justice Sect elder about the death of the three elders of their sect, the Justice Sect elder was furious and said how the two sects who were guilty of this had already been properly punished.
This angered some of the minor sects that were allies of these two sects and a widespread fight began, several elders joined the fight and so only the two ended up dead and many were seriously injured.
Justice Sect was annoyed by this, but it could do nothing because one of the elders of a smaller sect had also been killed and they were already being criticized for attacking both sects for what happened on the island, after all, they were usually a fair sect.
Even if the situation seemed confusing, the Sword Sect elders knew this was a plan of the elders infiltrating the soul-eater organization, so on other days, they were determined not to attend any such meeting.
On the second day of the struggle between the disciples of the soul-refinement realm, some Sword Sect disciples confronted the disciples infiltrated by the organization of the soul-eaters, those who were stronger only won the fights and nothing happened.
But when they were stronger they had to follow Sword Sect's recommendation and give up the fight, which made them very embarrassed by the mockery of the other disciples of the other sects, because they did not know why they had to give up without a fight.
Zhang Yi thought that only then could the Sword Sect disciples be able to get out of these fights, as they would end up losing anyway.
So only 6 Sword Sect disciples ended up in the top 64 with the 4 already ranked, this time the organization's infiltrated disciples were also in the top 64 and would continue in this tournament.
In the first round of the top 64 Sword Sect, 2 disciples faced these infiltrated disciples of the organization, this time they were stronger and the sect asked them to win and seriously injure these infiltrated disciples.
Since they were disciples of two different sects and nothing serious happened but the serious injury caused no problem for Sword Sect after all some disciples had already died in this tournament, so some serious injuries were nothing.
The fights continued and in the first 16, another fight between a Sword Sect disciple and a stronger infiltrated disciple took place, at this point in the tournament only 2 of these disciples were still in the tournament.
As the infiltrated disciple of the organization was a little stronger Sword Sect suggested that the disciple give up the fight so as not to take any chances, but this disciple was proud and the difference in strength between him and the opponent was not so big, so he decided to face the opponent.
Zhang Yi who was disinterested in seeing these struggles realized this situation and began to pay attention in this fight, he realized that the Sword Sect disciple was weaker and the adversary was an undercover disciple of the soul-eater organization.
So in this situation, it was for the Sword Sect disciple to give up this fight, he looked in the direction where the Sword Sect elders were and saw that the three elders present also looked angry and worried.
So Zhang Yi understood that they should have warned the disciple and the disciple did not want to give up the fight, in the tournament who had the choice was the disciple and the sect could not force him to give up, so Zhang Yi re-observed the fight while waiting for him the disciple was intelligent and gave up when in danger.
As the two had similar strength the fight was fought, the Sword Sect disciple was a young genius of 650 years, he was at level 8 of the soul refinement realm, he had the best techniques and an intermediate understanding of the laws of fire and so can fight well.
The undercover disciple was not that talented, but he was at level 9 of the soul refinement realm, so he got the advantage even though the Sword Sect disciple was more skilled, Zhang Yi realized that the organization's disciple seemed to be losing the fight purpose while avoiding injury.
This made Sword Sect's proud disciple more excited, he wanted to prove to the elders that his decision not to give up this fight was right and with his talent, he could win, he started using more qi in the attacks and made stronger attacks. that left him more open in defense.
The fights were between disciples of the soul-refinement realm of the same level were usually lengthy, but Zhang Yi paid attention throughout the fight, after a long time the Sword Sect disciple managed to slightly injure the opponent.
Convinced that he would win he began to attack harder and leave more openings in defense, this was a trap that the organization's disciple created to have an opportunity to kill the Sword Sect disciple.
Winning this fight was easy for him, but killing his opponent with almost the same force was hard to do and so he came up with this plan, at a time when the Sword Sect disciple left a big opening in defense the organization disciple did a strong attack that was preparing.
This unexpected attack hit the Sword Sect disciple who was very injured, this was the opportunity he was expecting and so he continued to attack with force and speed without the Sword Sect disciple being able to react.
Those who followed the fight were also surprised by this turn of the fight and even some elders were surprised, only Zhang Yi, the Sword Sect elders, and some smarter elders realized that it was a trap.
