Although his cultivation has improved, Hailong still hasn't mastered any of the taoist techniques. He tells his younger brother, Dao Ming, that if he wants to learn the art of taoism, he should go to the "perfected taoists" and teach him how to do the art. Hailong, however, doesn't want to go because he has a higher cultivation than his brother. He says that he still remembers what he did to his spirit herbs 800 years ago, when he first ate them. The place where he learned the art was chosen because it was the largest place in the divine land, and Hailong stayed at the first place. Three days later, he learns that there are five other elite disciples going with him to the competition. They are all from the yunlian peak, and they all have the same level of cultivation as he does. They're all going to the same competition, but they're not as close as he is, because they are all at the peak of their cultivation. He introduces them all as "junior brothers" , and tells them that they are competing with him. They all hail from the same sect, so they are called "the newcomer competition" .
