Gracious Sword Sect

The Gracious Sword Sect had nine peaks that stood perfectly straight.

The nine peaks rose straight from level ground, like nine sharp swords that shot into the sky.

These nine peaks were also called the Gracious Sword Sect's nine great sword peaks.

Among them, the First Peak was the main peak, and it was the most towering sword peak that had a grand imposing manner.

The other eight sword peaks were spread around the First Peak, like a host of lesser stars around the leading star, surrounding First Peak in the middle….

Though the First Peak was the entrance to the sect, it was also the most important peak in terms of status. The cultivation locations in the main peak belong to Gracious Sword Sect higher-ups and the inner court disciples.

The Second Peak was the home to the Alchemists. There resided many of the finest alchemists of the Xin Kingdom.

The Third and Fourth peaks were semi attached and this was where the female disciples resided.

The last five Peaks were where the male Outer Court Disciples resided.

## hierarchy

at the lowest came the servants, they mostly didn't cultivate or even if did, weren't higher than 3rd Level Of Qi Refining, then came the Outer Court Disciples, they could be easily distinguished by there brown robes, they also didn't have much status. Except for a few disciples who were deemed to have potential, the rest were just there to do ordinary chores and simple tasks which the servants couldn't.

Above Outer Court disciples were the Inner Court Disciples, wearing silver robes, they could be easily distinguished and were treated preferentially whenever they went outside the sect. They were also higher in cultivation.

And above them were the best disciples of the Gracious Sword Sect, the Core Disciples. They were the most talented and privileged disciples of the Sect and were treated no less than the next successor. Quality of the Core Disciples also affected the future of the Sect. A Core Disciple's status was no less than that of an Outer Court Elder.

The Elders were the true managers of the sect who decided allocations of resources and moderated the disciples. Elders were also divided into three categories, Outer, Inner, and Core Elders. While the Outer Court Elders had a similar status as that of the Core Disciples, the Core Elders were the ones who made and decided the path of the future for the sect, which was then finalized by the Sect Leader.

The Sect Leader held the true power in the sect and made decisions on all important matters regarding the future of the Sect with the Grand Elders, who were usually the previous Sect Leaders and Vice Sect Leaders.

### leagus

leagues are organizations created by the Inner Court disciples. Because these organizations could pull the relationships closer and ignite brotherhood between disciples, the Gracious Sword Sect doesn't oppose it, and instead, they encourage it.

##### World League

The World League has the most number of members, reaching at least five hundred people. And they have 'World' behind their back, signifying themselves as the part of the World Alliance

##### Heavenly League

The Heavenly League is the most significant because most of the core disciples were once part of this alliance. But there selection trial is the hardest, so very few disciples succeeded to become a part of this league.

##### Jade League

The Jade League is unique because it is an all female league. There are no male disciples, and it is the most sought after league by female disciples.

##### Nine Supremes

the Nine Supremes are the most mysterious and powerful ones. As the name suggests they truly only have nine members, and anyone who joins them will no doubt become a core disciple soon. But there is no trial or test to join this league, the Nine Supremes will decide if you are worthy, and after three months, the selected will challenge the current nine supremes to become official members.
