Refining the Mountains and Rivers

Chapter 524B – Utter Trash

Chapter 524B – Utter Trash

“Enough, everyone follow along and go straight to your residence!” Protector Xin’s assistant shouted out loud. Then, he couldn’t help but mutter a curse, “These lucky bastards!”

Because this group of residences had an important use, whether it was in location or quality of construction, they were all extremely good. Many senior disciples couldn’t even obtain one if they asked, and now they were being given out to these worthless idiots.

The assistant was psychologically imbalanced.

The group moved along, crossing plains and rivers. The vast expanse of the Demonic Path Holy Land was soon revealed to all.

The group of over 2000 people ooh’ed and aah’ed, attracting many eyes as they travelled. When people learned they were the new disciples, the Demonic Path cultivators would all reveal mocking looks.

So these were the useless trash that had stepped into dog shit luck. After glancing at them for several moments, the Demonic Path cultivators would sneer even wider…they really were trash, so trash that they couldn’t be any more trash!

An hour later, the group finally reached their destination. A mountain rose straight up from the earth. The mountain was imposing and beautiful, but it also emitted a somewhat cold and prideful atmosphere.

The assistant led the group. There was an unwilling look in his eyes. In this housing area, one of these residences should have been his…no don’t think about it, think about it and you’ll go crazy!

“As new disciples, you will be placed here. From the base of the mountain to the peak, the spiritual strength increases and the sizes of the dwellings also go from small to large. In order to ensure fairness, the dwellings will all be assigned according to your cultivation. What you obtain will depend on your own ability.

The assistant flicked his sleeve and a white crystal fell to the ground. “Attack this stone with all your strength, and it will release a red, orange, yellow, green, azure, blue, or violet light. The seven colors become increasingly difficult to release, and the assignment will begin according to the order.”

The first new disciple pumped himself up for a long time. Then, with a loud shout, he punched out a fist. The pure white crystal emitted a weak and faint cry and a dark red light flashed on the surface.

The assistant’s lips twitched. He waved his hand. “This is the very bottom. Go stand at the end.”

The person flushed red with shame and scurried away.

Following that was the second person. His performance was a little bit better. Although it was also red, the color was much richer and he was placed in front of the first person.

Red…red…red…

No wonder these people were all despised. It had to be known that for this examination stone, even a somewhat stronger Holy Land servant would be able to cause it to light up.

Generally speaking, a disciple had to be orange. Seeing some yellow as also quite normal.

But these people…

A Demonic Path cultivator couldn’t help but shake his head. This new batch of people was really garbage to the extreme!

…

Before Qin Yu, the best performance so far was an azure color. For better or worse, it was still the fifth rank. Even among the older established Demonic Path disciples, this result was still good. Without accident, this person was sure to have considerable achievements in the future.

The assistant smiled and spoke some words with the person, saying that once everything was settled they should go out for a meal and get to know each other better.

This sight caused the eyes of many people to burn with jealousy. But, this was cold and hard reality. Without strength, one would never earn respect.

Duan Jieyu looked at this new disciple who was trying his best to remain calm but still couldn’t conceal his giddiness and smug satisfaction. She pursed her lips. She knew that this person was extremely fierce and he stood at a level she had never been able to look up to before. But, there was one thing she was sure of, and that was that her master was much stronger.

During that night at Dawnperch Hotel, she and her big brother had kept themselves hidden in a room at Qin Yu’s courtyard. They watched as the old servant appeared and the entire scene that followed up to him fleeing. Although things were covered in fog and it seemed as if her master hadn’t even done anything at all, her big brother told her that this was what it meant to be truly fierce.

Duan Jieyu thought about it and agreed. If a person was able to stand completely still, allowing their enemy to attack them freely, but finally still causing their enemy to flee in fear, if this wasn’t fierce, what was? Moreover, she also heard the news afterwards that some incredibly great figure from the Qi Family had died that night.

From that day forth, her uncle the manager was clearly much more respectful towards her master.

What would her master’s performance today be like?

Duan Jieyu blinked her eyes, a bit of anticipation in them. Of course, one of the major reasons for this anticipation was because she wanted everyone here to know that they couldn’t bully her big brother again. Hey, look how fierce our master is!

In fact, Qin Yu’s performance didn’t leave Miss Duan disappointed. When it was his turn, he calmly stepped forward.

His step was tranquil and steady, not anxious at all.

The assistant glanced at him and lowered his head back down, picking at his nails, a bored look on his face.

Initial Blue Sea. He was still far from being Revered. This boy was probably just another piece of garbage that managed to step into dog shit luck and enter their Demonic Path.

Tsk tsk. Thinking back to his youth, just how much pain did they have to endure, how much struggle did they have to overcome to join the Demonic Path?

This boy put on some good airs, but what was the use in that? Whether this person was a mule or horse, everything would be made clear soon.

Hum hum!

This kind of trash, even if they managed to enter the Demonic Path through luck, they were doomed to be at the very bottom. After failing three consecutive ten-year examinations, he would eventually be kicked out anyways!

As all these random thoughts were shuffling through his mind, he heard a slight buzz in his ears, followed by a faint vibration spreading through the ground.

The assistant’s thoughts had drifted elsewhere. When he heard the sound, it took him a while to regain his senses. He looked up and the first person he saw was a Demonic Path disciple who stood to the side to maintain order. This person was named Zhang Xuan. He had a calm temperament and was diligent in his work. However, his luck wasn’t good. He had made a mistake in his early years and thus wasn’t taken seriously. After wasting so many years, it would be difficult for him to ever improve.

But what was this? Even though his status wasn’t high, for better or worse he was a veteran of the Demonic Path. How could he reveal such an idiotic wide-mouthed expression in front of these newbies? It was just disgraceful!

The assistant secretly decided that he couldn’t use this Zhang Xuan any further; he wasn’t able to hide his emotions at all. He would likely blow up if he encountered any difficulties; there was no use in raising him.

After passing down this death sentence in his heart, the assistant turned around, a bit of curiosity in his eyes. He wondered, just what happened?

Then, his mouth slowly fell open, the exaggerated angle so great that it left one sighing in admiration. He was truly worthy of being a Demonic Path disciple; the flexibility of his bones and muscles was astonishing. Looking at how big his mouth was, it was almost possible to fit a cow inside.

But at this time, no one bothered looking at the assistant’s humiliating dumbfounded expression. This was because everyone felt as if they had been struck over the head with a stick. Their minds buzzed and they lost the ability to think.

At the base of the mountain, the examination stone that was placed on the ground was still faintly trembling. Because it was trembling, it caused the ground to shake.

The rich purple color was like a fresh flower in full bloom. It recklessly radiated through the air, the pure and lustrous light leaving one’s mind entranced.

The assistant’s thoughts were caught within the purple light. It was only a long time later that he managed to regain his composure. His lips began to tremble.

Deep purple, this was definitely deep purple. Moreover, Qin Yu’s punch had caused the examination stone to shake and shiver?

This proved that the strength of his fist had surpassed the limits of the examination stone!

This was an examination stone for newly arriving disciples. Although it was only the most basic kind, its highest withstanding limit was at the peak Blue Sea level.

Thinking of this, the assistant’s scalp tingled. If he hadn’t seen this with his own eyes, he wouldn’t have believed it at all.

Peak Blue Sea…this boy unexpectedly…had a peak Blue Sea strength…

He struggled to close his mouth. In his excitement, the assistant’s entire body was trembling. At this moment he felt as if he stood at the turning point of his destiny. Whether his future life would be filled with mediocrity or riches, he feared it would all depend on this person.

What nonsense. To possess a peak Blue Sea level of strength at the introductory examination, this sort of character was rare even throughout the entire Demonic Path.

To say this this person had an infinitely bright future, as beautiful as brocade, was still belittling him. Perhaps one day in the future, this person could rise and become a great figure within the Demonic Path, one that played a pivotal role.

If he could be on good terms with such a person when they were still low and humble, did he have to calculate just how great the returns would be on this investment?

This was a lucky chance bestowed by the heavens! A lucky chance bestowed by the heavens!
