Thanks for the chapter!
It's interesting how the thing they're most shocked by is the breaking of the badge. Also, MC forgot to mention the First Elder had given and instructed Nangong to consume an illegal pill when Nangong was losing. Wonder if cultivating helps to slow down ageing, otherwise the former First Elder and former Vice Leader are doomed to life sentences. Although they certainly deserve it putting their own power and interests above that of the sects along with playing fast and loose with the rules while shamelessly claiming to be upholding them. Especially trying to exile the top ten students of the Outer Court just to flaunt their position.
