Little Junior Sister, Stop Competing. Our Sect Is Broke

[Strong Female Lead + Silly Comedy + Xianxia Romance] Tianzhen Sect is the greatest sect in the cultivation world. Sword cultivators across the Nine Provinces flock to it, fighting tooth and nail for the title of Sword Dao champion. Yet at the ninety-ninth Immortal Sect Ceremony, the one who stood out was a poor girl carrying a battered bronze sword, with not a single valuable thing on her.

"Is this an Immortal Sect Ceremony or a poor people's pageant?!"

"Don't get obsessed with me. I'm just a legend. If you want to challenge me, the deposit is ten taels. Two people get a twenty percent discount, and if you come as a group of three, buy two and get one free. You won't lose out, you won't get cheated. Don't miss this chance as you pass by!"

"Are you crazy? Who pays to get beaten up?!"

Content warning: light comedy, a bit of an ensemble cast, and a female lead's cultivation journey. The romance isn't very prominent in the early chapters.
