The Scum Is A ***

Do you think I'll be forgotten by the author? This young master? Jing Kang thought as he stared at Lei Ling who was sitting across him, making his own talisman. No… the author just changed my role. He thought as he resumed writing. Unlike the sword cultivation which lacks finesse, Talisman Making is better. It's elegant.

Talisman Making test: to make things fast, the participants were to make three talismans to use to defeat their opponent later. Not too lethal to kill their opponent. They can knock out their opponent with just one talisman, though. Three is the maximum number of talismans they can use. If both sides are still standing, they will be judged on who received more damage to announce the loser. If it is a draw, they will be given a chance to use another talisman to decide the winner.

Thus, there were making their talismans now. Jing Kang didn't expect to meet Lei Ling here. However, recalling that the guy secretly pasted a Bad Luck Talisman on him before, he should have expected this. He had forgotten he told him his shixiong is Cheng Sheng – the genius mage. Fortunately, he remembered the guy's face. He's going to make him pay him back for the losses he suffered. However, now's not the time. Even if he's an arrogant person, but he knows when to act. If he'll be his opponent later, then he won't show him mercy!

Meanwhile, fortunately for Lei Ling, he hadn't notice the arrogant young master he met before. Or else, he would definitely lose in this test.

In contrast of the Talisman Making, the Spell Casting test is as intense as the martial arts test since, surprisingly, it was also a battle royale. The spectators were all covering their ears because of the explosions they heard from the explosion spells the participants cast.

In the Potion Brewing venue, countless people already ran away to avoid the pungent smell coming from the cauldron of the participants. However, Xi Ning, a delicate-looking girl, seemed to have his sense of smell sealed. Of course she didn't seal it, but she was just already used to the strange smells of poisons.

"Hehehehe…" Xi Ning chuckled like a witch. Her eyes are dark as she put in the ingredients on her cauldron. The participants near her were almost scared off by her frightening expression.

Opposite to the smelly venue is the Pill Refining Hall. Everyone who ran from the Potion Brewing venue sought refuge in the Pill Refining Hall to cleanse their nose from the pungent smell and breathe in the calming scent of the magic pills.

"You can do it, You Rou!" You Rou cheered herself as she closed her eyes and begin to concentrate to start refining her magic pill.

Martial Arts Test, plateau.

"Wow… they really make things harder for us, huh?" Jing Hei can't help to comment after he found a rock to place his right foot.

"If uncle will hear you… ah, he already did." Jing Bai said and looked at the sky. "I'll still say this for you – " he looked at Jing Hei. " – he'll break your nose." He told him.

"Why my nose? That's my biggest asset!" Jing Hei said.

"That's why he'll break it." Jing Bai said.

"Can't you concentrate?" Jing Cheng spoke as he climbed further. "… the Xinfaxian Sect sure has this easy, huh?" he sighed when he saw Cheng Sheng, Fei Yin and Feng Mo not far above them.

"Even their women are tough." Xi Ming commented when he saw Lei Qing didn't even break a sweat as she climbed further. "Ah Xing." He called and helped Xi Xing climb towards him.

Qian Lin turned to the Shanliangde Sect. "… aren't you surrounded by cliffs?" he can't help but ask.

"… we weren't trained in this area." Xi Shi answered. "Aside from that person who was picked up from a street." He looked at Gong Xian who were climbing just beside the Xinfaxian Sect.

Qian Lin looked at Gong Xian in amazement. "How can he…"

"Didn't you know?" Xi Shi said. "He tried to escape from elder Ho before. To escape, he climbed down from the East peak." He said.

"What?!" Qian Lin cried in horror. He almost lost his footing when Jing Hei caught him and pulled him back.

"Heh." Xi Shi grinned. "Then, to take him back, elder Ho also climbed down." He said. "It seems that he values others' lives than his. Thus, when he saw elder Ho climbing down the cliff, he immediately climbed back up." His smile disappeared. "He cried for a long time, apologizing to elder Ho. Then, the next day, he never left the peak. Well…" he said and tilted his head as if he's recalling something. "I think that's when he started to get attached to elder Ho. He then never left elder Ho for five steps."

They all speechlessly looked at Gong Xian who finally reached the plateau. He was the first, followed by Cheng Sheng and Fei Yin. Seeing the others closing in on the top, they started to pick up their pace. Not long after and Feng Mo and Lei Qing also reached the top, followed by Jing Cheng, then Jing Bai. Xi Ming was next, then he pulled Xi Xing up and Xi Shi. Jing Hei was pulled up by Jing Cheng and Jing Bai, then he pulled Qian Lin up.

However, Qian Lin's leg was suddenly pulled. They were all surprised and looked down, only to see Shu Mu! "You bastard!" Jing Hei yelled as he tried to pull Qian Lin again.

"Oh? Is this even a man's leg?" Shu Mu laughed as he tightened his grasp on Qian Lin's leg.

"AH!" Qian Lin cried. He wanted to kick him, but he can't since he'll lose his footing and he'll burden Jing Hei by his weight further.

"Ah Lin!" Jing Hei called. His eyes are bloodshot as he glared at Shu Mu's hand holding Qian Lin.

"Ah Hei…" Qian Lin pressed his lips into a thin line. He looked at Shu Mu before he turned to Jing Hei.

Jing Hei's eyes widened when he realized what's Qian Lin is going to do. "No… no. Ah Lin!" he called and was about to jump down when Jing Bai and Jing Rui pulled him back. "Let go of me!" he said as he struggled form their grasp. He didn't let go of Qian Lin's hand and instead, held them further. "Ah Lin! Don't you dare!" he said.

"Ah Hei! Let go!" Qian Lin said. "Or you'll be pulled down, too!" he told him.

The other participants saw them and started to pull the others near them, too. Even those who are already on top of the plateau, they tried pulling their leg. "AAAH!!!" someone screamed when he fell down and died. Those who were on the top moved away from the edge, except for Jing Cheng, Jing Bai and Jing Hei.
