Little Fiends
A man in azure robes sat in a corner of the Sword Condensation Palace.
The man was burly and dark-skinned. He had a frivolous smile on his face, and his face was covered in stubble. His clothes were covered in stains, making him look extremely sloppy.
Lai Huabei and the others had been thinking about their days in the Dao Sword Palace.
The burly man's words were like a bucket of cold water that had been poured over their heads. Luo Zheng was still fine, but Lai Huabei and the others immediately became extremely ugly.
"C- palace master Chu, how can you say that?" An azure-robed man felt humiliated as well.
The burly man smiled faintly. He crawled to his feet and slowly walked towards Lai Huabei and the others. As he walked, he said, "The Dao Sword Palace has thirteen academies under it. The Sword Burial Palace, the Demon Sword Palace, and the Broken Sword Palace are all first-rate academies. The Fury Sword Palace, the Upper Sword Palace … these are all second-rate academies. The Sword Condensation Palace, ranked last, was created to accept people like you who joined the Dao Sword Palace through strange methods. Staying in the Sword Condensation Palace will only be a waste of your lives. Are you sure you want to join?"
Lai Huabei was the first to lose his temper when he heard that.
The burly man's words were like an invisible hand, directly crushing his dreams.
"It's said that you can become a disciple of the Dao Sword Palace as long as you obtain the tombs. It looks like the Dao Sword Palace doesn't plan on fulfilling that promise?" Lai Huabei questioned.
The burly man smiled gently. "There's naturally no reason for the Dao Sword Palace to not fulfill its promise. If you're willing to stay in the Sword Condensation Palace, I'll naturally welcome you …"
"But what do you mean by what you just said?" Lai Huabei asked furiously.
The burly man shrugged. "I'm just telling the truth."
The Dao Sword Palace was a huge organization in the Seven Star province, so it was naturally intertwined with extremely complicated relationships.
Many large clans in the Seven Star province hoped to squeeze their own people into the Dao Sword Palace. Due to various considerations, the Dao Sword Palace was unable to refuse these clans.
Originally, the Dao Sword Palace had twelve Academia Palaces, but an exception was made to add the Sword Condensation Palace behind it, making it thirteen Academia Palaces. Those hedonistic disciples who could not refuse but were lacking in talent were naturally shoved into the Sword Condensation Palace.
Those who entered the Dao Sword Palace through the tombs would also join the Sword Condensation Palace.
It was just as the burly man had said. The Dao Sword Palace was a place for trash.
Lai Huabei and the others were furious when they found out the truth.
Luo Zheng's expression remained the same.
Back in Heaven's Wall City, Luo Zheng had been very suspicious of the rules of the Dao Sword Palace. It was just that he did not want to throw cold water on Huabei.
No matter which major force it was, they needed to unearth the most outstanding disciples. If they recruited ordinary disciples, it would only be a waste of resources. This was the case in the God's Domain, and it was the same in the Mother World.
"Now, do you still want to join us?" A treacherous smile appeared on the burly man's face.
Lai Huabei clenched his fists and furrowed his brows. He gritted his teeth and said, "I'm in!"
The other people in the Heaven's Wall City also knew that this opportunity didn't come easily. If they were to return to the Heaven's Wall City now, it would be a huge humiliation.
"I'll join too!"
"I'm in!"
"I'm willing to join …"
The others also followed suit and said.
The burly man looked at the sincere expressions of these people. His eyes revealed a trace of pity. "Alright, since that's the case, go to the backyard after you register. I hope that those little devils will stop for a while …"
Just as everyone was preparing to register with the two green robed men, the burly man said, "Remember, my name is Qiu Shengshui. I am the Palace Lord of the Sword Congealing Palace. If you encounter any trouble, it's best not to trouble me. Try to solve it yourself."
After speaking, the Palace Lord left without looking back.
Hearing these words, everyone was speechless. After registering with a nervous heart, they each received a nameplate. Perhaps it was because the Sword Congealing Palace wasn't valued, but the entire process was extremely simple.
The two green robed men brought everyone to the backyard and told them that this was the residence of the Sword Congealing Palace. They then left without looking back, as though they were afraid of something.
Although the Sword Congealing Palace wasn't valued, it was still built on the scale of a school. The backyard of the palace was extremely spacious.
Just as Lai Huabei and the others were still standing there in a daze, a soft whistle suddenly sounded from the backyard. From each corner of the backyard, twenty to thirty green robed youths slowly walked out.
Looking at the unfriendly faces of these youths, Luo Zheng's eyes narrowed slightly.
"Hehe, it's only been half a month and there are people who don't know what's good for them to join the Sword Congealing Palace. It seems like you guys aren't from Seven Stars City." The leader, a long haired youth, lightly laughed. His voice carried a trace of contempt.
"The people from Seven Stars City aren't that stupid. Our Sword Congealing Palace is notorious. Even if you beat them to death, they wouldn't dare to come." Another silver haired youth had a strange smile on his face.
Lai Huabei stood at the front and stared at the leader, trembling as he asked, "You … What do you mean?"
"Nothing. It's just that the Sword Congealing Palace has its own rules. The first step to joining the Sword Congealing Palace is to let you know the rules …"
Just as the long haired youth was still speaking, Luo Zheng had already turned around and walked out.
"Brother Luo Zheng, where are you going?" Lai Huabei anxiously asked.
Lai Huabei seemed to be the backbone of this group, but when he met with trouble, the first thing he would look to was Luo Zheng.
Luo Zheng did not pay any attention to Lai Huabei. He jogged quickly and caught up with the two men in green.
When the two green robed youths saw Luo Zheng chasing after them, they asked with a strange expression, "Friend, do you need something?"
Luo Zheng asked with a smile, "I want to ask, what are the rules of the Sword Congealing Palace? If a disciple of the palace fights, what is the punishment? "
The two green robed youths looked at each other. They obviously knew what was going to happen in the backyard, which was why they left in such a hurry. Although the little demons' talents were ordinary, each one of them had a strong background. They were also the main culprits of the Sword Congealing Palace's notoriety.
"Our Sword Congealing Palace doesn't have many rules. But when the disciples spar, it's fine as long as no one dies." The green robed youths replied.
Almost all of the disciples who joined the Sword Congealing Palace had to go through the baptism of the little demons. Only a small number of people were able to persevere. The majority chose to leave the Sword Congealing Palace after a day.
This year, there were almost a hundred people who chose to leave.
"Thank you, I understand." Luo Zheng nodded and once again walked towards the backyard.
The two green robed youths shook their heads, "This person doesn't believe in heresy. If he leaves now, he might be able to avoid physical pain. Those guys are …"
