Martial Peak - 1. Chapter 1 Sweeper
When the sky was bright, Yang Kai woke up, after a little washing, he took the broom by the corner and walked out of the lonely house.
Standing at the door stretched lazily, glanced at the whiteness of the fish belly emerging from the horizon, closed his eyes and enjoyed a moment of peace, then opened his eyes and danced the broom in his hand, burying his head in cleaning the dust and fallen leaves on the ground.
Dressed in Tsing Yi, plain and clean, the old-fashioned clothes are plain and white to set off the youth of a few years old. Yang Kai’s waist was as straight as a javelin, and even when he was doing the lowest level of work, the look on his face was meticulous. The movements were very calm, the hands holding the broom didn’t use much force, and the body didn’t even swing much. With just the turning of the wrist, the broom was like a finger with an arm. The dust and debris accumulated on the surface magically moved, as if two legs had grown in vain.
Yang Kai was a trial disciple of the Lingxiao Pavilion. He advanced to the sect and began to practice for three years, but he has only cultivated to the third level of body tempering until now. The brothers who started with him have already surpassed this stage long ago, and each had the opportunity to worship the middle and high seat of the entrance, but he could only sigh with excitement.
After three years of body tempering and three levels, these qualifications can no longer be described in ordinary words, it can be said to be mediocre.
Reluctantly, Yang Kai could only accept a sweeping job in the sect, and practice hard while maintaining his livelihood.
The Lingxiao Pavilion is a relatively special sect. This particularity is reflected in the cruel competition among the disciples under the sect. In this sect, the capable people are in the top position, the incompetent are eliminated, and the iron rule of the weak eating the weak is vividly deduced in the Lingxiao Pavilion.
Other sects may have some friendship and brotherhood, but there is no such thing as Lingxiao Pavilion! If you want to climb up, you can only be qualified if you step on the shoulders of the so-called brothers and step on their blood.
The strict rules under the Lingxiao Pavilion are well-known throughout the Han Dynasty. Although it is not a super faction, the cruelty of the fighting among the disciples is second to none! Because of this, the disciples are all sturdy martial arts, and few people dare to provoke them when they go out and walk the rivers and lakes.
There is a rule in the Lingxiao Pavilion that disciples under the age of fourteen, no matter who they are, from the beginning, three years are considered a trial period. During these three years, the sect was responsible for all meals, accommodation, and transportation, and the disciples could just cultivate. If you can break through the tempering period within three years, you are eligible to join the masters of the sect as apprentices, and let these masters teach your practice. Of course, you can also practice without a teacher, but once you practice, you will have a mentor to teach and explore it by yourself. Is completely different. To a certain extent, Lingxiao Pavilion’s rules are somewhat free.
Those who did not break through the body tempering period within three years either left the sect or were demoted to trial disciples.
Trial disciple is Yang Kai’s current identity! It is also a shame in the High Court!
Unlike ordinary disciples, the living environment of trial disciples is more demanding, because at this point, you have to take care of food, clothing, housing and transportation by yourself, and the sect will not waste any cultivation resources on you. Once you are relegated to a trial disciple, you will basically never have a head start in this life, unless your strength rises sharply in a short period of time, and the other sect feels that you have the capital you can invest in.
There are three thousand disciples in the entire Lingxiao Pavilion, but how many disciples are there in the trial? But ten fingers! Yang Kai is fortunate to be one of them!
Trial disciples want to survive in the Lingxiao Pavilion. It is as difficult as climbing to the sky. For example, the hut where Yang Kai lives now is built by himself, one by one, with a few holes in the small roof. Take care of time, when it rains, the water in the house is hard to drain. He bought his clothes, he made his own food, and he was responsible for everything.
Even the location of the hut was in the most remote and most unattended place of Lingxiao Pavilion.
Such a terrible treatment is difficult for ordinary people to tolerate. This is also due to the small number of disciples in the High Heaven Pavilion trial. Basically, the disciples who have not broken through the body tempering state after the trial period will choose to leave the High Heaven Pavilion, but Yang Kai Stayed.
I’ve been swept out once, how can I do this this time?
After being demoted as a trial disciple a few months ago, Yang Kai took a sweeping job in the sect to maintain his livelihood.
It can be said that Yang Kai is now not only a trial disciple of High Heaven Pavilion, but also a small servant of High Heaven Pavilion. But this sweeping work, sometimes unable to maintain Yang Kai’s food and clothing, from time to time, he was hungry and full, and the wind and cold were unaffected, and the life was miserable. Even so, Yang Kai has never retired. He is alive, decades old, and he has chosen this path, so he has to keep going. It is not a man’s work to give up halfway.
Yang Kai has a resilience, the tenacity that doesn’t hit the south wall and doesn’t look back!
The sky gradually lighted up, and Yang Kai swept the ground for a while, and everything he passed was clean and dusty.
Although sweeping the floor didn’t waste any strength, but after moving for so long early in the morning without eating or drinking, Yang Kai was also sweating all over his body. This had nothing to do with his strength, it was entirely because of his poor physique.
Two of the three meals are hungry, and anyone in the living environment of Yang Kai will not be good.
Gradually surrounded by some disciples of the Lingxiao Pavilion, these disciples all got up early, and they did not go to practice but surrounded Yang Kai. Many people looked at Yang Kai with interest, and even more people looked very greedy. , It is as if Yang Kai is now a naked beauty, with a compelling fragrance.
And among the Lingxiao Pavilion disciples gathered around Yang Kai, there was also an atmosphere of tense competition spreading, and they looked at the brothers around him vigilantly, and they looked bad.
Some people in the crowd showed an unbearable face, and whispered: “There are so many people, it’s a bit too much.”
At the moment, someone replied: “You think you can leave if there are too many people. No one wants you to stay.”
One sentence made the person slander, everyone knew why they were gathered here, and they all knew why they were staring at Yang Kai, and now they were waiting for that moment to come. The time limit is coming soon, isn’t it a pity to leave now? If you can grab the top spot, today will be another gain.
Yang Kai naturally knew the movement by the side of Zhou, but his expression had never changed. I have to go through this kind of battle every five days, six times a month. It is really nothing to make a fuss about, and the number of people in front of me is slightly less, probably because it hasn’t arrived yet.
So he has been sweeping the floor, regardless of the people around him, sweeping all the way.
With the passage of time, more and more people gathered around Yang Kai. It is roughly estimated that there will be at least 30 or 40 people.
Yang Kai stopped suddenly, just sitting in the middle of the road, taking a slow breath, and regaining the strength he had consumed early in the morning.
Upon seeing this movement, everyone gathered around Yang Kai immediately dispersed, surrounded him in groups, and the atmosphere of intense competition suddenly rose to a new level, as if even the air was no longer flowing.
Everyone sees who is not pleasing to the eye, but they all look forward to Yang Kai very much.
If someone who does not know the truth sees this scene, they will think that the person surrounded by the crowd is a super master. Otherwise, how can they send so many people to deal with him? But in fact, Yang Kai was just a trial disciple of the third-tier body tempering realm, and anyone present was better than Yang Kai.
“Yang Kai, don’t bother to worry about it. You’ll be obediently telling me to wait and get down. Everyone saves time?” Someone suddenly felt a little disdainful when they saw Yang Kai like this.
What is the recovery of a three-layer quenching body? Anyway, it’s all about losing, so why don’t you stay so lingering?
“Yes, yeah, Yang Kai, at any rate, you should also be considerate of the feelings of fellow seniors. Everyone is different from you. We have to practice after this game.”
What this said, it seemed that Yang Kai should be quickly defeated by them, and Yang Kai who was involved in regaining his strength now seemed to be disrespectful to them.
Yang Kai turned a deaf ear to it, as if an old monk entered Ding.
Time continued to elapse, and suddenly, a melodious and empty bell rang. It was the morning bell of the Lingxiao Pavilion. The bell reached everyone’s ears, and the disciples gathered around Yang Kai were shocked.
The bell rings nine times, the eastern sun rises, and it’s a new day!
The breathing of the people suddenly subsided, and he gazed at Yang Kai who was surrounded by him. Yang Kai slowly got up, holding the broom in his hand, and glanced lightly at the circle of people around him.
“Choose me, Brother Yang!” someone shouted loudly, “I did it very lightly, so I promise you won’t hurt you!”
“Fart! Choose me, I will give you a happy one, and it will be over with one punch, absolutely not wasting everyone’s time.”
“Choose me…”
“Choose me…”
There is a lot of noise in the market, just like a vegetable vendor in the market selling the vegetables in his field, and trying to compare who is fresher.
“Yang Kai, you can’t break the rules you set!” someone reminded.
Yang Kai chuckled, and threw the broom he was holding into the sky, dozens of pairs of eyes looked up together, expectantly waiting for the moment when the broom landed, and he kept praying in his heart: “Choose me, choose me !”
Time seemed to slow down, the broom swung a few times in mid-air, then fell down, bounced on the ground, and stopped moving.
The front of the broom pointed at a burly teenager in the crowd.
A sound of regret sounded, full of resentment and unwillingness. On the contrary, it was the burly young man who walked out of the crowd with a laugh, clasped his fists and smiled at everyone: “Senior brothers, I have won this battle today. I hope you can’t blame the brothers.”
“Grass, shit luck!” Someone was jealous.
“Why can’t you choose me? Lao Tzu comes every five days. It’s been a full month, Yang Kai, did you deliberately?”
“Don’t mention it, I have been here for three months, and I have never been selected once!”
“Brother, you are worse than me.”
“It’s not miserable, it’s not miserable, it’s a good show.” The two brothers looked at each other and smiled comprehensibly.
In the field, the others have dispersed, leaving only Yang Kai and the burly boy looking at each other.
“Trial disciple Yang Kai, body tempering three levels!” Yang Kai looked at the other side.
“Ordinary disciple Zhou Dingjun, five-layer body tempering!” The burly boy reported to his family.
The disciples of the Lingxiao Pavilion are also divided into levels, from the bottom to the top are the five major levels of trial disciples, ordinary disciples, under-seat disciples, elite disciples, and core disciples. Zhou Dingjun said that he is an ordinary disciple, that is, he has not yet come to the master of the sect, and he has not received guidance from a mentor. If you break through the body tempering period and worship the master of the sect, you will be a higher-level disciple. The elite disciples at the next higher level are all outstanding, selected from among the disciples under the seat.
And the core disciples are the hope of the next generation of Lingxiao Pavilion, but the clan uses these people as future successors to cultivate.
Senran’s disciple hierarchy seems unfavorable, but it can well arouse the blood and competitive consciousness of young people. This is also the foundation of Lingxiao Pavilion’s cruel system.
And the root cause of Yang Kai being scrambled by countless people was another rule of Lingxiao Pavilion, the rule of challenge.
