The Scum Is A ***

"It's the third day, but our sect is still haven't called." Sun Yi said smiled and as he turned to Chen Han. "The Shanliangde and Zunjingde Sect has already made their debut during the first day." He added. 

"As they say, save the best for the last." Chen Han said, ignoring Sun Yi's second sentance. "That goes with Ah Sheng, too." He looked at Cheng Sheng moving his legs, feeling bored as he watched the fifth match between two disciples. They know he was itching to fight. 

Fei Yin heard what Chen Han said and was about to disagree when he heard his last sentence. He looked at Cheng Sheng, then the Alliance's elders – especially Pai Lie, who was showing an impatient expression on his face. Pai Lie is waiting for Cheng Sheng to have his match and show them his skills. Fei Yin couldn't agree more with Chen Han.

"Hm? What's wrong, da shixiong?" Cheng Sheng asked when he saw Fei Yin was staring at him. "Is there something on my face?" he added as he felt his cheeks and forehead.

"There's nothing." Fei Yin answered as he withdrew his gaze. You're handsome as always. He thought in his heart. 

"Winner, Guo Cheng of Huakai Sect!" the emcee announced after one of the contestants fainted when he was hit with a talisman on his forehead. 

"OOOOOOH!!!!" the audience cheered. "It's Huakai Sect! They're really strong!" they said as they looked at Guo Cheng. His yellow uniform looked like the sun shining as he stood on the stage. 

"Both are mages, but there's just really a big difference between them." someone from the audience said as he crossed his arms and shook his head while clicking his tongue.

"Yeah. No matter how much you ate a magic pill to increase your strength, but it won't fill the gap between the two of you if your opponent is a remote class while you're a melee class." They explained. The pill refiner's opponent is a talisman maker - Guo Cheng.

"But – " someone suddenly said. " – that couldn't be said if you possess the talent in the five areas of alchemy." He said.

"You mean…" they said and unanimously turned and looked at Cheng Sheng who is silently watching the sixth match. "True…" they nodded in agreement. "His opponent could only bow down before him." they said and immediately looked away when Cheng Sheng turned to them after he noticed they're looking at him. 

Fei Yin heard what they said, and he couldn't agree more.

"Sixth match – " Jing Xian said as he picked a nameplate. " – Dongcheng Sect, Dong Cheng." He said and picked another nameplate. "Opponent. Huakai Sect, Tang Yun." he said. 

"It's the Huakai Sect again." The audience murmured when they heard the Huakai Sect's name.

"Huakai Sect is bigger than the Dongcheng Sect. The Dongcheng Sect will surely lose." someone said. 

"Yeah..." the person behind him nodded in agreement and sighed. 

"Huh? Isn't he…?" Feng Mo exclaimed when he recognized Dong Cheng on the stage as the match started. 

"You're right!" Cheng Sheng was surprised, too. He already had forgotten the name, but not the face. After all, the idiotic and stupid disciple with Dong Cheng is really brainless. He felt pity for Dong Cheng to be caused trouble by the idiotic and stupid fellow disciple of him that's really brainless.

"Who is he?" Lei Ling, Li Tian and You Rou asked. They were meditating in the inn at that time, so they wouldn't know Dong Cheng. 

"Ah. I've fought with him before…" Lei Qing answered and scratched her head as she watched at Dong Cheng being suppressed by Tang Yun. She sighed. Dong Cheng had lost to her before not because he's weak but she's just stronger than him. Dong Cheng is in the Low Level Golden Core Stage while she's already in the Middle Level Golden Core Stage. However, Tang Yun is stronger than him since he's also a Middle Level Golden Core Stage like her. Also, Tang Yun's attacks are fast and vicious. 

Tang Teng, sect leader and father of Tang Yun, was smugly smiling while Dong Cheng's uncle sighed after he saw Dong Cheng was beaten.

Dong Chi1 - Dong Cheng's cousin, from below the stage, was rejoicing. How dare you act arrogant towards me when you're this weak? He thought and then his eyes caught the sight of Cheng Sheng, Fei Yin, Feng Mo and Lei Qing. His face darkened and he murderously glared at them. He had lost some of his teeth after Cheng Sheng beat him, making him unable to show himself before the others. Now, he came to see Dong Cheng lose and rub his loss on his face. Huakai Sect is strong, and their Dongcheng Sect can't compare with it. Thus, it is their inevitable loss.

"Da shixiong!" their disciples cried and immediately helped Dong Cheng sit.

"Hah. Truly a pathetic loser…" Dong Chi said as he looked at Dong Cheng. "You also lost before to a woman. Truly pathetic…" he said.

"Stop it!" the disciples told him.

He glared at them. "You dare order me? You just wait when I tell father about this!" he told them and left in anger. He knew, although he said it but his father favored Dong Cheng more than him. Dong Cheng had always been better than him. It was because his father felt like he had stolen the sect from Dong Cheng's father, thus he's more excessive of his care towards Dong Cheng than towards his own son. Even their disciples favored Dong Cheng more than him – the sect leader's son, who only had friends because they want to suck up to him.

"He's not that weak…" Lei Qing said after Dong Cheng lost the match. "The Huakai Sect is just that strong." She said.

Cheng Sheng and Feng Mo nodded. They could still feel the qi remained on the stage. The qi is of Tang Yun's. "This Huakai Sect…" Cheng Sheng muttered.

"They're from the west." Chen Han said. "They're a big sect, just second to Youxiwang Sect." he explained.

"No wonder they're all strong." Feng Mo said. The Huakai Sect all won their matches.

"Seventh match – " Jing Xian said as he picked a nameplate. " – Shanliangde Sect – "

"Finally, one from the four big sects." The audience said. "Who would it be this time?" they wondered.

" – Xi Ning." Jing Xian said. Xi Ming was surprised and he looked at Xi Ning who was pouting on the side.

"A woman?" the audience said. "And seems she's a mage, too." They added.

"What test did she take again?"

"Opponent – " Jing Xian said as he took another nameplate. " – Huakai Sect, Shan Lu."

"A sword cultivator!" the audience exclaimed when Shan Lu appeared on the stage. "She's going to lose…"

"But, isn't she from the Shanliangde Sect? Surely, she'd put up a fight – "

"A mage. And a woman." Shan Lu frowned, but there's no arrogance on his face. Just dislike. "Admit defeat." He told her. He's the second eldest disciple of the Huakai Sect.

Xi Ning frowned. "How dare you!" she said and took out her potions. "I'll make you be the one to admit defeat!" she said.

"Begin!" the emcee said and left the stage.

Apparently, Shan Lu didn't move. "Shixiong, what are you doing?" the Huakai Sect disciples asked from below the stage. However, Shan Lu ignored them.

Instead, it was Xi Ning who made the first move. She opened a bottle and a smoke came out from the mouth of the bottle. The smoke flew towards Shan Lu and Shan Lu covered his nose to avoid smelling it. Obviously, it's nothing good.

"It's no use to cover your nose." Xi Ning told him. "Just because I'm a woman, you're looking down on me? More so, because I'm a mage?!" she said as she glared at him. Then, she threw the bottle on Shan Lu's feet and the bottle broke. More smoke came out and covered the stage.

The audience immediately moved away and covered their nose. Pai Lie immediately set up a barrier around the stage to prevent the smoke from spreading off the stage.

"Admit defeat!" Xi Ning yelled when Shan Lu didn't answer. She was enraged.

"What… is this…?" Shan Lu asked as he coughed after he smelled the potion.

Xi Ning grinned. "Don't worry, it's not lethal." She said. "You'll just be incapacitated for one day. The maximum time allotted for a match is one hour. Of course, I win." She told him.

Shan Lu's eyes became red and his body was shaking. "… what ingredients did you use?" he asked as he coughed non-stop. He fell on his knees and he's sweating heavily.

There's no harm in telling him the ingredients of the potion, thus Xi Ning generously told him.

"Fog Kelp." he muttered after he heard these two words and suddenly felt his mind became blank.

"Huh?" Xi Ning said, then waved her sleeves to disperse the smoke in front of her. The next second and she saw a shadow from the smoke, then Shan Lu appeared before her with bloodshot eyes. He raised his sword, then it descended to cut her.
