n, then he would be looked into.
Because of this, Zhao Hai chose to stay in the Outer Sect in the meantime.

After the Outer Sect Competition was the Inner Sect Competition.
The Inner Sect Competition ran the same way as the Outer Sect.
However, there were less Inner Disciples.
Moreover, Inner Disciples were stronger than Outer Disciples.
Because of this, the quality of the battles were much better in comparison.

Anyone can watch the Inner Sect Competition.
Because of this, the competition was livelier compared to the Outer Sect Competition.
Not only were Inner Disciples coming, Outer Disciples also came to see the battles.
The entire Mount Xingtai was packed with people.

Zhao Hai also wanted to see the quality of the Black Tiger Gang’s Inner Disciples.
So on the first day of the competition, he went to Mount Xingtai to spectate.
But seeing the quality of the battles, Zhao Hai was disappointed.
This was because the level of these people weren’t much.
Some haven’t even congealed their Dao Avatar.
Although they were stronger compared to Outer Disciples, they were far from Zhao Hai’s level.

After spectating the first round of the Inner Sect Competition, Zhao Hai returned to the Ignored Valley and no longer went out.
The Inner Sect Competition ran a total of ten days.
However, despite it being the Inner Sect Competition, Zhang Feng didn’t participate.
His identity as the top Inner Disciple was a title for other people to see.
His treatment was on par with the top ten Core Disciples and his strength was also equal to them.
If such a person participated in the competition, it would be unfair to the other Inner Disciples.

Despite this, the top ten Inner Disciples were still worth looking into.
These people had Core Formation-level strength and each one had solidified Dao Avatars.
Despite this, Zhao Hai didn’t go out of the valley.
To him, none of these disciples were his opponent.

Because Zhang Feng didn’t participate, Zhao Hai didn’t know how strong he was.
However, Zhao Hai was sure that Zhang Feng’s strength was far above these Inner Disciples.
He might not be any worse than Firecloud.

What surprised Zhao Hai was that he also didn’t see Han Buli in the competition.
It seems like people from the Darkness Hall have a lot of privileges.
They didn’t even need to participate in the competition.

Of course, it’s also possible that Han Buli participated using another identity, but his performance wasn’t eye-catching so Zhao Hai didn’t notice him.
Recently, Han Buli hasn’t been visiting nor has sent any messages to Zhao Hai.
Therefore, he didn’t know what Han Buli was doing. 

Despite this, Zhao Hai didn’t take initiative in contacting Han Buli.
After all, Han Buli has a special status.
If Zhao Hai sent him a message, it might cause problems with his mission.
Therefore, Zhao Hai always waited for Han Buli to send him a message first.
People in the Darkness Hall have always been mysterious, so Zhao Hai was very careful when it came to their matters.

Now that the Outer and Inner Sect Competitions were finished, what’s left was the Core Disciple Competition.
However, battles between Core Disciples couldn’t be seen by anyone.
Because of this, Zhao Hai put all of his energy into creating the large artifact.

Zhao Hai didn’t want to create the large artifact as one body.
He wanted to use the method used to create Giant Spirit Treasure Ships.
The parts of the ship were divided into components which would be assembled together.
It wasn’t as powerful as a whole large artifact, but it also wasn’t vastly lacking if properly made.
The most important advantage of this method was the ease of repair.
Any damaged parts can be easily removed and replaced.

To ensure the strength of the artifact was preserved well, the damage needed to be replaced immediately.
This was its greatest strength. 

In the beginning, Zhao Hai thought about welding the parts together.
But after further thinking, he knew that it wouldn’t work well.
Welding them together wasn’t different from having one whole artifact.
Once it was damaged, it would still need more work to replace the damaged parts.

Finally, after further experiments, Zhao Hai decided on the method.
He would use joints between components.
Zhao Hai got the inspiration for this method from furniture of the old times.
Without nails to hold wood together, old furniture makers would use unique joints in order to join furniture parts.
This method produced furniture that lasted for many years.

Zhao Hai wanted to use the same method on the ship.
He wanted to see if the ship would become sturdier with this method.
After his experiments, he proved that it was indeed feasible.
Not only did it make a more sturdy ship, it was also very easy to repair after being damaged.

After figuring out the method, the production of the large artifact was quickened.
But then, another problem arose, that was the arrangement of formations.

There were all kinds of formations that could be used on large artifacts.
Zhao Hai wanted to use three-dimensional formations for the ship.
But once the formations were arranged, he found that there would be nodes in the middle of the ship, connecting all the rest of the nodes of the formation. 

If these middle nodes were destroyed, the formations would be severely affected.
But if Zhao Hai arranged formations by component, the joints would thin out the energy lines.
As long as the parts get misaligned, then there would be no way to connect it again.
And if there was no connection, the formation wouldn’t fully operate.

In the end, Zhao Hai had to make specialized formations for the joints.
And after a lot of calculations, he was finally able to solve the problem.

While Zhao Hai was solving these problems, 10 days passed.
At this time, the Black Tiger Gang returned to its normal pace.
People continued to live their lives and do their tasks.
Everything returned to their right tracks.

Five days later, Zhao Hai was finally going to test his Zhang He’s Treasure Ship.
After seeing that there were no issues with it, Zhao Hai sent a message to Zhang Hao.
He wanted him and Zhang Feng to visit the Ignored Valley.

Zhang Hao was aware that Zhao Hai was preparing a gift for Zhang Feng.
However, Zhang Feng didn’t know.
After Zhang Feng received Zhao Hai’s message, he was somewhat confused.
He didn’t know what Zhao Hai wanted him for.
He immediately settled his matters and then went to the Ignored Valley along with Zhang Hao.
