The Scum Is A ***

Now that the Shanliangde Sect disciples seemed to have been released from some heavy burden, they immediately departed from the Youxiwang Sect\'s and Xinfaxian Sect\'s camp after… eating breakfast. The Xinfaxian Sect and the Youxiwang Sect are very, very kind and would help anyone all the way, making the Shanliangde Sect feel very grateful. Even Xi He didn\'t show his temper, as he still know how to be grateful.

Of course, after buying medicine, as well as magic pills, talismans and potions from them, they left to formulate a plan. Even if Wu Lian assured them that they will help them for a day, the Shanliangde Sect naturally can\'t continue to exploit them. They have helped them more than enough.

Sun Ri was left to the Youxiwang Sect\'s and Xinfaxian Sect\'s base again, and Xi He continued to go solo. Thus, Sun Yan, Fei Luo, Xi Bing and Fei Huo were left.

"Let\'s continue to go in pairs again today." Sun Yan spoke. "This time, we have to carefully observe xiao Ling\'s and xiao Bao\'s moves to determine the condition of them deducting our points." He said.

They all nodded in agreement. "Then… same arrangement as yesterday?" Xi Bing asked.

Sun Yan\'s brows knitted when he heard him ask. What is wrong with him today? He thought, though he didn\'t give it much thought. "Yes." he answered. Even though they only did it once last night, Sun Yan still feels worried about Fei Luo\'s body today.

"Oh." Xi Bing muttered, looking absent-minded.

Fei Huo is also still absent-minded and seemed to have suddenly forgotten his elder brother. Meanwhile, Fei Luo saw that Fei Huo isn\'t clingy today and took it as Fei Huo growing up. He thinks that what Sun Yan has told him yesterday when he convinced him about letting Fei Huo grow up is right. He also feels somewhat tired today, and his waist still is a little sore. He needs some time to rest. Thus, he didn\'t object with Sun Yan\'s arrangement. He also wants Sun Yan to protect him, and he knows he will.

Thinking this, a small, imperceptible smile appeared on Fei Luo\'s lips. For the first time, he has someone to rely on. And it actually feels good to rely on others.

…

"Good! Really good!" Zheng Fu Gong spoke as he watched the participants continue to farm for points. His eyes are full of satisfaction, and his heart is very happy.

Pai Lie, the other elders of the Righteous Alliance, the sect leaders, as well as the elders like Cheng Sheng, Fan Wen, and the others also are very happy and very satisfied with the participants\' performance, especially their respective disciples. Not only they saw their growth and wittiness, they also seen camaraderie from all of them.

Even with the disciples like Chen Wu, whom everyone thought has a mild temper because of his brother complex behavior, actually can be this calculative! Pitting others and make it look like out of kindness so that the others won\'t take it against him, and even make them indebted to him… this is Cheng Sheng\'s style! He really is Cheng Sheng\'s nephew!

He Shun also has grown. He not only became braver, but he also became smarter to know when to advance and retreat. He also began to become conscious with his surroundings, especially towards people.

Ling Yun became assertive. Before, he was too careful with everyone but now, he turned to develop his own opinions. He became open-minded, and became vocal of his thoughts towards the others. Cui Xiao is the same.

Wu Tie was seen as the future sect leader of the Wuyang Sect and thus everyone has a lot of expectation on him. Fortunately, he didn\'t disappoint them and displayed good skills in martial arts and also showed how careful he is with his plans. Wu Tong is very proud of his son!

Xi He, although he is still reckless, after being pitted by Wu Tie, he finally learned to become more careful. Though, he still likes to go alone. They, especially Sun Yu, hope that he won\'t go seek Wu Tie again and finally end this foolishness of his.

Fei Luo and Sun Yan, having always been at the top, finally made a mistake. Fortunately, they didn\'t brood over it. Though, they didn\'t ignore it, but learned from it instead. Although they didn\'t talk about this mistake of theirs, this is wise of them. Not only because this is their sect\'s matter and it is not prudent to talk about it with many people watching them, they also know to talk about it later because they are still in the middle of the competition, and their sect, as well as their names, have fallen rock bottom on the leaderboard.

Xi Bing, who was looked as average, shown his strength as he protect Fei Huo from the demons. One reveals his abilities when he has someone to protect. Xi Bing, because he was always overshadowed by Sun Yan and Fei Luo, thought that there was no need for him to take the spotlight. Thus, he deliberately, but actually also not deliberately, hid his strength. Thus, he surprised many people when he protected Fei Huo from the demons. Sun Yu was very satisfied with this, since he has already seen Xi Bing\'s abilities.

As for the other participants, they acted the same. Everyone was already satisfied with their performances. But, if the participants still have more to show everybody, then they gladly welcome it! After all, there is still four days left with the competition, and there is enough time for them to show their real strengths. It would even better if they have more skills, since the cultivation world would flourish more if they do.

"Ai." Cheng Sheng suddenly sighed.

"What\'s wrong, Cheng-shidi?" Feng Mo asked.

They all looked at Cheng Sheng and saw that he is sighing. His expression looked disappointed.

"Are you dissatisfied with Er Zi\'s performance?" Fei Yin asked, immediately revealing Cheng Sheng\'s chagrin.

They all looked at Fei Yin. As expected of Fei Yin! He is the only one who can understand Cheng Sheng! They all thought. Ah, no! This isn\'t the focus! "You… you are still dissatisfied with your disciple\'s performance?!" they asked in surprise. 

Cheng Sheng didn\'t answer their question and he frowned as he looked at Fei Yinzi.

"Xiao Sheng… what is wrong with Er Zi?" Fan Wen asked.

Chen Han was also puzzled. "Er Zi\'s performance is even better than the earlier stages." He said. "He even fought better now against xiao Bao than when he fought xiao Bao before." He added.

The others nodded in agreement.

"Isn\'t it because junior Cheng has a high standard?" Sun Yi asked and smiled as he playfully winked at Cheng Sheng whose frown became deeper as he continued to watch Fei Yinzi currently fight xiao Bao.

Fei Yinzi and xiao Bao are currently fighting one on one. Yes… Fei Yinzi chose to go alone this time while Ling Yun, his pair before, paired up with Zhu Xi and they are currently fighting against xiao Ling.

"I think Er Zi is fighting hard this time since he wants to recover his pride when he fought recklessly against xiao Bao before." Tang Zhe spoke.

"En." The others nodded in agreement.

"What does senior Sun Yi mean by \'standard\', Cheng-shixiong?" You Rou asked when she heard what Sun Yi said earlier.

Cheng Sheng, again, didn\'t answer while he seriously watch Fei Yinzi fight against xiao Bao.

Sun Yi, the other one who understands Cheng Sheng, well slightly than Fei Yin, answered. "Junior Cheng has a set of conditions for Fei Yinzi and Ling Yun, though he didn\'t tell the two beforehand." He told her. "He wants to see if the two would be able to fulfill these conditions that he has for them. In short, he also has expectations for them." he explained.

"Oh!" they all finally understood.

"But, since it is Cheng-shixiong, if Er Zi and Ling Yun would fail to meet his expectation, wouldn\'t they…?" Xiao Le muttered. "Mmph!" he exclaimed when Shu Mu immediately covered his mouth to stop him from talking.

Kang Ce grinned as he glanced at Cheng Sheng. He knows how perverse this guy is. Just look how he pit the others, especially the participants now. He doesn\'t even spare his disciples… well, it is right to say that he is the most harsh towards his disciples!

Truly a scum… a scum master!

Cheng Sheng ignored them as he softly hit his left hand with his fan while he watched the competition. "Look." He spoke.

They didn\'t expect for Cheng Sheng to change the subject. So, they all turned to watch, only to be surprised when they saw the leaderboard! "What…!" they exclaimed.

"The… the points aren\'t dropping!" Jing Hei exclaimed.

"Oh, my god! How did they do it?!" Lei Ling exclaimed as he pulled Jing Kang.

"They have already figured out the conditions." Jing Kang reminded him.

"Ah!" Xi Xing suddenly exclaimed when he saw something.

Xi Ming smiled.. "Yes… the points aren\'t dropping… including of the Shanliangde Sect\'s!" he said and grinned.
