YM778.TV Chapter 63: Am I going to die today?
Mo Fan was in a pickle, getting struck on his legs over and over. It was only because of the supreme cultivation skill that he had learned that he was able to still keep standing even after their strong assault.
Though the warm current inside him was flowing, helping his body to keep standing sturdy, but, he knew that he wouldn\'t last any longer.
He had questions and he was roaring them in his mind: "Who are these men and why are they attacking me? Why isn\'t anyone stopping them? Can\'t anyone see this? Do I have to suffer injustice again? Am I going to get eliminated like this?"
"Take this!" One of the men shouted, using a similar skill to Mo Fan as a purple aura enveloped his leg. He kicked, aiming at his knee to make him kneel.
"Argghh!" Mo Fan let out a cry of pain and this was the first time that he had made any sound. His knee had bent from the attack. It took every ounce of determination left in his body to keep standing and not kneel.
"Poor Boy..." One of the peak masters said with pity in his eyes. "Where is Elder Lo Pu? What is he doing?" He burst out in frustration.
However, everyone remained silent. No one had an answer to his question.
"I say let\'s eliminate those five boys!" The Peak master suggested, looking at the other Peak master\'s expression.
"Eh? Don\'t make decisions yourself, Raging Phoenix Peak master. I want those five boys into my Rising Phoenix Peak! They are all nascent soul realm cultivators at such a young age, anyone can see that they are geniuses!" A green-haired peak master suggested.
"You call them geniuses? What kind of genius gangs up on a single cultivator? Also, isn\'t that boy more of a genius to withstand their assault for so long?" The brown-haired peak master asked in disbelief.
"Well, we have our own opinions so let\'s just wait till the end of the test. Who knows, maybe that boy you are siding with won\'t even choose your Raging Phoenix Peak!" The green-haired peak master sneered before continuing to look at the screen.
"You!..." The brown-haired peak master gritted his teeth in frustration before also looking at the screen anxiously.
Meanwhile, Mo Fan\'s one knee had touched the steps and only one knee was left before he was declared to be eliminated, however, they didn\'t go for his other knee but suddenly gathered in his front and pushed him with their gathered strength.
Mo Fan\'s eyes widened in shock as he found his balance fumble and he began to fall on his back: "Finished... I\'m finished" He murmured, not finding any way out.
He was falling in a difficult position which made it impossible for him to escape falling and the constant push coming from the five men didn\'t help either. He accepted his loss.
However, Suddenly, He felt his body stop in between. It felt as if someone caught his back and was pushing him up.
The men in front also had weird expressions as if seen a ghost.
"Are you alright, little friend?" A heavy, deep voice came from behind him whose vibration he felt through the bulky hands that were holding him.
He then felt his body being lifted and placed to the side of the source of the voice.
It was then that his gaze fell on the towering man that was in front of him. This man had bulging muscles and was 2m in height, however, the scariest thing was the scar that connected his left eye to the right corner of his mouth. He wore a sleeveless, orange shirt and matching pants.
He appeared to be in his later forties.
"I, Vi Ling, who has sworn to protect the weak won\'t let this injustice slide. You men, aren\'t you ashamed of bullying the weak?" His thunderous voice echoed loudly in the ears of Mo Fan and the five men.
"Weak? Are you calling me weak while I am standing right here?" Mo Fan looked at this unbridled man with an incredulous expression.
Meanwhile, Vi Ling released his aura, letting the five men see his cultivation.
"Peak Nascent Soul?" Mo Fan\'s eyes widened along with the five men.
Did the five men had a chance of beating him?
No!
The five men, therefore let go of the idea to eliminate Mo Fan and ran up the stairs in an attempt to escape.
Seeing this scene, Elder Lo Pu turned towards Ashen with a smile: "Young Master Ashen, you were right. See, now someone who protects the weak has also appeared. Isn\'t this similar to the path of cultivation where cultivators help each other?" Lo Pu asked with a happy smile.
Ashen\'s mouth twitched at his words as he scoffed internally: "What are you so happy about?"
Meanwhile, on the outside, Ashen turned towards Elder Lo Pu, urging: "Elder Lo Pu, You need to go and stop them, otherwise, if we let these cultivators run wild in the test, where would that put the disciplinary team and you at? Wouldn\'t that mean we are useless?"
"Huh? Now you remember about the disciplinary team and my duty? Have some shame kid!" Elder Lo Pu thought internally before asking: "But didn\'t you previously say that we shouldn\'t interfere?"
"Oh, so you want to play huh?" Ashen smiled before asking: "Elder Lo Pu, Does that mean you agree that we shouldn\'t interfere in the test and let the test carry on like this?"
Elder Lo Pu pondered a little before nodding: "Yes Young Master, I think we shouldn\'t interfere!"
"Alright then, Elder Lo Pu, I hope that you won\'t go against your words in the next round of the test. It wouldn\'t be nice to see that and my respect for you would lessen if that happens." Ashen reminded.
"Of course, Young Master Ashen, what do you take me for?" Lo Pu responded with a lighthearted laugh.
Meanwhile, Ashen ruthlessly witnessed the elimination of his five pawns. The five geniuses of the Mo Family were all eliminated by Vi Ling.
Mo Fan who had recovered, expressed his gratitude: "Thanks Brother Vi Ling for your help. If it weren\'t for you, I would\'ve been eliminated unfairly!"
"Hahaha, No Problem, No problem, little brother. I like to help weaker people who can\'t protect themselves. It is after all the duty of the strong, right?" He laughed, playfully accepting Mo Fan\'s gratitude.
Mo Fan\'s eyebrows twitched every time Vi Ling called him weak, however, what could he say?
Therefore, not minding it, he asked: "Brother Vi Ling, I didn\'t see you at the entrance of the sect. I\'m sure I wouldn\'t have missed someone of your stature."
"Oh that, I was actually sitting with my daughter and began to climb late since I don\'t want to leave my daughter so soon. When I came here, I saw you being bullied by five boys, so I decided to help!" He explained clearly.
Mo Fan realized the situation as he bowed and suggested: "Then we should hurry and pass this test. Your daughter must be waiting for you. You shouldn\'t make her wait!"
"Hahaha, right! Then Let\'s go, brother Mo Fan!" Vi Ling answered before beginning to climb back.
After enduring the gravity for a long time, Mo Fan and Vi Ling both passed the first test, climbing all the steps.
Many people had already passed while some were behind them.
There were two paths in front of them, one going right while one going left!
Two disciples wearing the disciplinary team\'s uniform were there to help guide them.
One of the disciples took Mo Fan\'s disciple card while the other took Vi Ling\'s disciple card.
"Please come with me!" Mo Fan was instructed to follow the disciple to the left path while Vi Ling went on the right path.
"See you later Brother Vi Ling!" Mo Fan parted ways with Vi Ling.
Following the disciple, he was brought into an area with green grass and some trees.
"Please go inside, your test will commence soon!" The disciple instructed before leaving.
Mo Fan entered before standing in the center of the area. He could feel some gazes on him, however, he ignored them.
Soon, in front of him, a phantom appeared.
"Lavender Python?" Mo Fan recognized the phantom of the huge purple snake in front of him.
It was approximately six meters in length and 2m in girth. Anyone would feel their body numb just from the sight of it.
It looked at Mo Fan with the intent to kill. Mo Fan, however, was somewhat confident in winning against.
"Come at me!" He shouted before dashing toward the python, however, soon his eyes widened as he felt killing intent aimed at him from two different directions.
He stopped in his tracks before retreating to make some distance from the python. He looked around before spotting two golden eyes in two different directions behind the bushes.
The culprits soon revealed themselves, coming out of the bushes.
"Golden fur lions?" Mo Fan\'s eyes were wide in horror. They were nascent soul-stage spirit beasts and there were two of them in front of him.
And as if that wasn\'t enough, he felt a sting sensation aimed at his heart as he rolled to dodge.
Cut!
A cut appeared on his left hand despite the timely dodge. He searched for the culprit and soon discovered the sword qi lingering in the air.
"Isn\'t this a sword-attacking formation?" Mo Fan felt fear, extreme fear. He wanted to run, however, looking back at the entrance, it had disappeared.
"Am I going to die today?" Mo Fan felt his life hanging by a thread!
