"Today is the day that you have to prove yourself. Everyone has the chance to become the leader of this class. This has never happened before in the history of the Bai Clan. No matter what happened, a leader was never changed in the history of the Bai Clan after being chosen the first time." Elder Wang stood before the twenty-seven kids and explained.
They were standing outside of the village, near the outskirts of the Si forest. Today, their competition was going to start.
As elder Wang was their training teacher, he was the one managing the first round of the competition with four other elders.
"Look behind me. Your first round is in there. I will be dividing all of you into nine groups, each group having a total of three kids." Elder Wang pointed his right thumb behind him towards the forest. He was looking at twenty-seven kids. His back was facing the forest.
"I, with some other elders, have released a total of five Rank 1 Black Rabbits in
They kept quiet. The Black Rabbit watched them for a while before turning around. It ignored them and began to eat."You two, remove your boots. We need to be careful and reduce our noises." Yang Zhai removed his boots¹ and ordered the other two as well. He wanted to be careful as much as possible."I will try to get close to it from here. On the other hand, you two should spread and come at it from the other two directions. One of you goes to the left and the other to the right side. And huh, you need to cover the front as well." Yang Zhai turned his head behind to look at the two and said.As his eyes were losing sight and it was becoming difficult for him to see clearly every day, he did not want to take the risk of moving around in the jungle² too much and alerting the rabbit.
"Brother Yang, you have already reached the mid-stage! I am truly impressed. The technique that you used earlier clearly possessed the aura of a Rank 1 mid-stage. You truly deserve to be the leader of our class." The boy said. He was shocked to discover that Yang Zhai had already reached the mid-stage.According to the norms, he should be still at the early stage."Yeah, brother Yang, I also felt the aura of the technique you used earlier. It was at the Rank 1 mid-stage and the power was also stronger than a normal Rank 1 mid-stage." Chin Mae also said to Yang Zhai.A technique did not possess any sub-stages. It only possessed ranks, from Rank 1 to Rank 13. This was also the case with the Kas. A technique's power increases according to the strength of the Essence water. However, it didn't mean that a Rank 1 technique could become stronger than a Rank 2 technique.The technique was just like a formula. If a person wanted to change the properties or i
Yang Zhai went closer to the Black Rabbit's corpse. He picked Black Rabbit up and removed the emblem. It easily came off. As Elder Wang had said that this emblem would only come off when the Black Rabbit dies.He then threw the corpse of the Black Rabbit away and said,"Let's go," he turned around and was about to go when he heard the boy."Brother Chin, the technique you used now was at Rank 1 mid-stage, right?" The boy looked at Chin Mae and queried with a serious expression."What are you talking about?" Chin Mae acted as if he did not understand the boy."What do I mean? You know what I mean. You have already reached Rank 1 mid-stage. But you are pretending as if you don't know." The boy said with a serious expression."So what if I did? What does it have to do with you? Brother Yang already reached the mid-stage, so why can I?" Chin Mae said irritatingly."So what, huh? I remember the first day clearly. You were not s
Yang Zhai pulled the long knife out of Chin Mae's head and stored it in the Bloody-Storage Ka. After that, he stored the emblem in his robe's pocket. Then, he placed the bodies of Chin Mae and the boy differently, about two to three meters away from each other.After that, he began to collect a lot of wood and dried leaves. He placed them on the bodies of Chin Mae and the boy that he had killed. He completely covered their bodies with leaves and pieces of wood. Then he collected and stored a lot of wood and dried leaves in the Bloody Storage Ka.After he collected a lot of these in the Bloody Storage Ka, he came back to the place where the dead bodies were placed.Thereafter, he activated the Bloody Storage Ka and spread all the dried leaves and the wood that he collected in the surroundings of the dead bodies. Almost all of the area surrounding the bodies was filled with wood and leaves. So much so that they could be seen around the trees as well.
Yang Zhai's ruthlessness was too ruthless. He did not even spare himself, let alone others. He knew that if he wanted to achieve his purposes, he had to look at himself before dealing with others.He had to use everything he could, even if it meant sacrificing himself for himself, but not to the point of killing himself; Otherwise, what was the meaning of using himself? After all, he had to live to achieve his purposes. To him, existence came first before everything else. That was why he even burned his own skin so that he could live.He might look like an insane person to the others, but there was sanity behind this insanity. Was the person who followed his emotions insane or the one who could even control his emotions insane?"Help me…help, someone… please help…me," Yang Zhai was s
The next day,Yang Zhai opened his eyes and looked around. What he saw was an empty wooden room. He looked around and examined. He had just woken up from his sleep. Even though he had pretended to be unconscious, he still needed to sleep. Therefore, when he saw that everything was alright, he fell asleep to give a rest to his mind. Right now, he was lying on a wooden bed.After a while, a man walked in, he was Ju Jingyi. When he saw that Yang Zhai was awake, he said,"So, you are finally awake. Congratulations, you have passed the test, here is the emblem." Ju Jingyi handed a half-burned emblem to Yang Zhai."Huh, I passed. What about my teammates? Where are they?" Yang Zhai took the emblem and looked at Ju Jingyi before asking.Yang Zhai knew about all these things. He knew that he would pass the test as long as he had the emblem with him: therefore, he was not worried about not passing the test at all."Sigh, you are still aski
Another day passed,The three days that were given to the candidates had passed. Today, the results of the competition were decided and all of the kids in the class were present outside the village. This was because elder Wang had asked all of the candidates to be present, whether they passed the test or not.And the teams that passed would move to the second round."You all know the reason for all of you to be here. I just want to tell you that only four teams passed the test. And also, a tragedy happened during the competition. One of the teams encountered a problem during the competition and was caught in a forest fire." Elder Wang was standing in front of all the kids. He was serious when he spoke. From his expression, it could be seen that something bad was going to happen today.
Yang Zhai was sitting on his bed. He pulled out the bottle of Ginger Ointment and a small knife. After that, he slashed his right palm with the knife. A deep cut appeared on his palm and the blood began to fall on the towel that he had placed on the bed.He then applied a little bit of the Ginger Ointment paste to his wound. When he did that, the blood stopped. And the wound began to heal slowly. It was proof that the paste he used now was Ginger Ointment."It's real. This should do the work. Now, I should sleep and give my body a little rest." Yang Zhai stored the bottle of Ginger Ointment in his Bloody Storage Ka and slept.The next day,On the day of the second round of competition, ten kids were standing in a straight line. A total of four teams had passed the first round, and each team had three kids; so, there should have been twelve kids, but, since Yang Zhai was left alone from his team, only ten kids were going to compete in the second round.
