for a shot at the Foundation Pill.
193
00:13:13,480 --> 00:13:14,530
He wants in,
194
00:13:15,000 --> 00:13:16,490
but afraid we'll take his spot.
195
00:13:16,790 --> 00:13:18,060
So he's trying to scare us off.
196
00:13:22,390 --> 00:13:22,940
But...
197
00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:25,340
what if he's telling the truth?
198
00:13:30,390 --> 00:13:31,300
Airship approaching!
199
00:13:58,510 --> 00:13:59,300
Elders,
200
00:13:59,390 --> 00:14:00,130
thanks for coming all this way.
201
00:14:00,720 --> 00:14:01,100
I greet you
202
00:14:01,360 --> 00:14:01,820
with respect!
203
00:14:05,720 --> 00:14:07,060
I've prepared tea and fruit
204
00:14:07,550 --> 00:14:08,730
in the Qianji Library.
205
00:14:09,550 --> 00:14:10,220
Please,
206
00:14:10,600 --> 00:14:11,370
come with me.
207
00:14:24,150 --> 00:14:24,770
Mentor,
208
00:14:25,910 --> 00:14:26,850
everything is ready.
209
00:14:28,750 --> 00:14:29,490
You may go now.
210
00:14:30,600 --> 00:14:31,180
Yes.
211
00:14:34,440 --> 00:14:34,850
Come on,
212
00:14:34,960 --> 00:14:35,370
eat up.
213
00:14:35,510 --> 00:14:36,100
Try this.
214
00:14:38,360 --> 00:14:39,180
Try one of these pastries.
215
00:14:39,670 --> 00:14:40,580
- This one's good. - Smells amazing!
216
00:14:48,480 --> 00:14:49,300
Tastes good.
217
00:14:49,910 --> 00:14:50,770
Better than last time.
218
00:14:51,320 --> 00:14:52,940
Stop eating!
219
00:14:57,000 --> 00:14:57,940
We haven't even had enough yet.
220
00:14:59,270 --> 00:15:00,530
The Bloody Trial Ground is about to open.
221
00:15:00,550 --> 00:15:01,420
Per tradition,
222
00:15:01,750 --> 00:15:02,940
the Solunar Purification Pearl,
223
00:15:03,080 --> 00:15:05,010
held by Yellow Maple Valley,
224
00:15:05,440 --> 00:15:06,180
must now be passed
225
00:15:06,480 --> 00:15:07,650
to the next sect,
226
00:15:07,960 --> 00:15:08,650
the Moonshadow Sect.
227
00:15:09,200 --> 00:15:09,730
Hongfu,
228
00:15:10,030 --> 00:15:10,770
please wait.
229
00:15:11,550 --> 00:15:12,850
Before we transfer the pearl,
230
00:15:13,240 --> 00:15:14,220
there's something
231
00:15:14,630 --> 00:15:16,220
I'd like to discuss with the elders.
232
00:15:26,000 --> 00:15:27,220
Isn't this a Foundation Pill?
233
00:15:28,670 --> 00:15:29,700
But the quality's a bit poor.
234
00:15:30,720 --> 00:15:31,460
Mine's slightly better.
235
00:15:33,510 --> 00:15:34,650
These two Foundation Pills
236
00:15:34,910 --> 00:15:36,250
must've been made
237
00:15:36,360 --> 00:15:37,180
in different batches.
238
00:15:38,120 --> 00:15:38,610
That's right.
239
00:15:39,630 --> 00:15:40,980
The one Fu Yunzi has was made with herbs
240
00:15:41,200 --> 00:15:43,060
gathered from the Trial Ground twenty years ago.
241
00:15:45,030 --> 00:15:45,460
And
242
00:15:45,670 --> 00:15:46,460
mine?
243
00:15:46,720 --> 00:15:48,940
Yours was made with recent herbs from the Trial Ground.
244
00:15:50,150 --> 00:15:51,300
They're both Foundation Pills,
245
00:15:51,480 --> 00:15:53,340
but the quality difference is clear.
246
00:15:54,150 --> 00:15:55,180
I believe you all
247
00:15:55,270 --> 00:15:56,100
have noticed it as well.
248
00:15:56,670 --> 00:15:58,010
The quantity and quality of spiritual herbs
249
00:15:58,120 --> 00:15:58,490
in the Trial Ground
250
00:15:58,630 --> 00:15:59,530
aren't what they used to be.
251
00:16:00,440 --> 00:16:01,010
Therefore,
252
00:16:01,600 --> 00:16:03,370
on behalf of Moonshadow Sect,
253
00:16:04,720 --> 00:16:05,980
I propose that after this trial,
254
00:16:06,670 --> 00:16:08,340
we enter an early seal period,
255
00:16:09,000 --> 00:16:09,700
and seal the Trial Ground
256
00:16:10,120 --> 00:16:10,890
for sixty years.
257
00:16:11,510 --> 00:16:11,980
What?
258
00:16:12,000 --> 00:16:13,180
Sixty years?
259
00:16:13,320 --> 00:16:14,270
That's way too long!
260
00:16:14,270 --> 00:16:15,250
Exactly!
261
00:16:27,750 --> 00:16:28,490
Li!
262
00:16:32,870 --> 00:16:33,820
It's really you!
263
00:16:34,030 --> 00:16:34,700
Miss Han!
264
00:16:36,390 --> 00:16:37,980
After we parted at Tainan Valley,
265
00:16:38,270 --> 00:16:40,060
I thought I'd never see you again.
266
00:16:40,630 --> 00:16:41,420
I didn't expect
267
00:16:41,550 --> 00:16:42,850
you'd join Yellow Maple Valley.
268
00:16:44,120 --> 00:16:44,890
I should be thanking you
269
00:16:45,270 --> 00:16:46,250
for that book you gave me.
270
00:16:49,120 --> 00:16:49,940
Miss Han,
271
00:16:50,320 --> 00:16:51,700
are you here for Seven Sects' Summit too?
272
00:16:54,320 --> 00:16:54,650
Oh right.
273
00:16:55,080 --> 00:16:55,980
Just ahead,
274
00:16:56,320 --> 00:16:58,420
there are snacks for Qi Refining disciples.
275
00:16:59,120 --> 00:16:59,890
Go give them a try.
276
00:17:02,080 --> 00:17:02,980
Those over there
277
00:17:03,270 --> 00:17:04,820
are all about to reach the Foundation Establishment Stage.
278
00:17:05,550 --> 00:17:07,180
Just sitting near them
279
00:17:07,600 --> 00:17:08,460
makes me nervous.
280
00:17:09,510 --> 00:17:10,530
I'll pass.
281
00:17:24,630 --> 00:17:25,610
Thank you, Li.
282
00:17:33,150 --> 00:17:33,850
Miss Han,
283
00:17:34,120 --> 00:17:35,250
are you going into the Bloody Trial Ground too?
284
00:17:38,000 --> 00:17:39,340
My brother's old illness flared up.
285
00:17:39,550 --> 00:17:40,700
He's been unconscious.
286
00:17:41,750 --> 00:17:43,850
Only the Solarflame Blossom from the Trial Ground
287
00:17:44,080 --> 00:17:44,980
can save him.
288
00:17:46,320 --> 00:17:47,220
Can't your elders
289
00:17:47,480 --> 00:17:48,420
cure him?
290
00:17:51,150 --> 00:17:51,770
That's why
291
00:17:52,080 --> 00:17:53,890
I have to find the Solarflame Blossom myself
292
00:17:54,080 --> 00:17:54,980
to cure my brother.
293
00:17:57,870 --> 00:17:58,770
Even if I die trying.
294
00:18:01,000 --> 00:18:02,100
You're so nice to your brother.
295
00:18:03,360 --> 00:18:04,250
I have a younger sister too.
296
00:18:05,360 --> 00:18:06,420
When I left home,
297
00:18:07,320 --> 00:18:08,220
she was about this tall.
298
00:18:13,360 --> 00:18:14,130
The herbs in the Trial Ground
299
00:18:14,270 --> 00:18:15,250
are incredibly rare.
300
00:18:16,000 --> 00:18:17,580
Even with one opening every five years,
301
00:18:17,790 --> 00:18:19,770
we barely gather enough for Foundation Pills.
302
00:18:20,320 --> 00:18:21,650
And now it's sixty years between?
303
00:18:22,030 --> 00:18:23,300
[Elder Han, Spirit Beast Mountain]
How should we make up the shortfall?
304
00:18:23,790 --> 00:18:24,530
Exactly!
305
00:18:24,550 --> 00:18:25,420
That's right!
306
00:18:25,440 --> 00:18:25,940
Yeah!
307
00:18:25,960 --> 00:18:27,820
Your Moonshadow Sect is rich and powerful.
308
00:18:27,840 --> 00:18:29,610
Of course you've stocked up on Foundation Pills.
309
00:18:30,360 --> 00:18:31,940
But the rest of us?
310
00:18:32,030 --> 00:18:33,490
Our disciples are still waiting in line.
311
00:18:33,510 --> 00:18:34,250
- Exactly! - That's right!
312
00:18:34,270 --> 00:18:35,010
What are we supposed to do?
313
00:18:35,150 --> 00:18:36,420
Foundation Pills matter
314
00:18:36,630 --> 00:18:37,820
because they're for the younger generation.
315
00:18:38,480 --> 00:18:39,580
But every time the Trial Ground open,
316
00:18:39,910 --> 00:18:41,940
nearly half the Qi Refining disciples end up dead.
317
00:18:42,550 --> 00:18:43,620
Do their lives
318
00:18:44,640 --> 00:18:45,250
mean nothing
319
00:18:45,400 --> 00:18:46,490
to you elders?
320
00:18:47,550 --> 00:18:48,620
Heaven's way never changes,
321
00:18:49,350 --> 00:18:51,010
not for sages, not for tyrants.
322
00:18:51,510 --> 00:18:52,570
Does your compassion
323
00:18:52,830 --> 00:18:54,290
outweigh the way of Heaven?
324
00:18:54,510 --> 00:18:55,860
You're putting a mere Foundation Pill
325
00:18:56,240 --> 00:18:57,050
on par with the way of Heaven?
326
00:18:57,070 --> 00:18:57,860
That's a bit much.
327
00:18:58,030 --> 00:18:59,170
Seems like
328
00:18:59,310 --> 00:19:00,380
your Yellow Maple Valley
329
00:19:00,400 --> 00:19:01,700
is siding with Moonshadow Sect.
330
00:19:02,160 --> 00:19:03,700
Rare treasures in this world
331
00:19:03,790 --> 00:19:04,660
are limited by nature.
332
00:19:04,960 --> 00:19:06,160
Some spirit herbs
333
00:19:06,160 --> 00:19:07,200
take a hundred,
334
00:19:07,240 --> 00:19:08,680
even a thousand years to mature.
335
00:19:09,240 --> 00:19:10,010
But in recent years,
336
00:19:10,200 --> 00:19:11,770
disciple numbers have skyrocketed,
337
00:19:12,270 --> 00:19:12,980
while herbs
338
00:19:13,400 --> 00:19:15,010
only get scarcer with every pick.
339
00:19:15,550 --> 00:19:16,140
Exactly.
340
00:19:16,830 --> 00:19:17,940
At this rate,
341
00:19:18,160 --> 00:19:19,460
we're just killing the golden goose.
342
00:19:20,200 --> 00:19:20,770
Besides,
343
00:19:21,270 --> 00:19:22,940
I heard the Six Demonic Sects are starting to stir again.
344
00:19:23,720 --> 00:19:24,980
We should be minimizing losses,
345
00:19:25,270 --> 00:19:26,330
or what if they strike?
346
00:19:26,720 --> 00:19:27,290
Demonic sects?
347
00:19:27,920 --> 00:19:28,980
It's been centuries,
348
00:19:29,000 --> 00:19:30,090
and every year someone claims they're back.
349
00:19:30,270 --> 00:19:31,770
But aside from us old-timers,
350
00:19:31,790 --> 00:19:32,620
who's ever actually seen them?
351
00:19:32,720 --> 00:19:33,420
True!
352
00:19:52,240 --> 00:19:52,860
Young Master.
353
00:19:54,070 --> 00:19:54,620
Young Master.
354
00:19:54,620 --> 00:19:56,310
[Wang Chan, Ghost Spirit Sect Heir, Mid Foundation Establishment Stage]
355
00:19:56,310 --> 00:19:56,730
When...
356
00:19:57,160 --> 00:19:58,460
[Elder Tong, Early Core Stage]
when are we setting out?
357
00:20:00,110 --> 00:20:01,180
Always in a rush, huh?
358
00:20:01,960 --> 00:20:03,290
[Elder Gui, Early Core Stage]
The Seven Sects of Yue Kingdom
359
00:20:03,310 --> 00:20:04,900
are a chaotic mess.
360
00:20:05,350 --> 00:20:06,980
If we just charge in blindly,
361
00:20:07,310 --> 00:20:08,250
how many men are we going to lose?
362
00:20:09,070 --> 00:20:09,530
Young Master,
363
00:20:09,750 --> 00:20:10,250
forgive me.
364
00:20:11,070 --> 00:20:11,730
But
365
00:20:12,200 --> 00:20:12,730
your aunt
366
00:20:12,830 --> 00:20:13,490
marched into Jiang Kingdom
367
00:20:13,510 --> 00:20:14,860
half a month ago.
368
00:20:15,270 --> 00:20:16,420
If she gets ahead of you,
369
00:20:17,400 --> 00:20:18,380
I'm afraid
370
00:20:18,590 --> 00:20:19,180
your position
371
00:20:19,440 --> 00:20:20,860
will only get more awkward.
372
00:20:22,640 --> 00:20:23,420
That's true.
373
00:20:27,110 --> 00:20:28,220
My aunt is pretty aggressive.
374
00:20:29,510 --> 00:20:30,940
But I prefer finesse.
375
00:20:31,550 --> 00:20:32,330
And I'll use this chance
376
00:20:32,350 --> 00:20:33,530
to show my father

00:20:34,000 --> 00:20:36,140
who the next leader of Ghost Spirit Sect should be.
378
00:20:36,790 --> 00:20:37,380
So then...
379
00:20:37,720 --> 00:20:38,730
what's the plan?
380
00:20:40,440 --> 00:20:40,980
No sudden moves.

00:20:44,270 --> 00:20:45,330
you're not going to Yue Kingdom?
384
00:20:45,590 --> 00:20:46,810
Of course I am.
385
00:20:48,110 --> 00:20:48,900
The three of us are enough.
386
00:20:49,510 --> 00:20:50,620
Just the three of us?
387
00:20:50,750 --> 00:20:51,860
No need for a full army?
388
00:20:54,590 --> 00:20:56,250
Besides, the Bloody Trial Ground
389
00:20:56,720 --> 00:20:57,770
is about to open.
390
00:20:59,310 --> 00:21:00,570
Time for those blockheads
391
00:21:00,590 --> 00:21:02,050
from the Seven Sects
392
00:21:02,960 --> 00:21:03,810
to get busy.
393
00:21:06,830 --> 00:21:07,460
And another thing:
394
00:21:07,960 --> 00:21:09,010
once you two get there,
395
00:21:09,030 --> 00:21:10,250
keep your mouths shut.
396
00:21:11,590 --> 00:21:12,860
They don't talk the way you do.
397
00:21:13,640 --> 00:21:14,220
Yes, Young Master.
398
00:21:15,590 --> 00:21:16,220
Yes, Young Master.
399
00:21:17,270 --> 00:21:18,090
That's true.
400
00:21:25,400 --> 00:21:26,860
You've all been around the sects for years.
401
00:21:27,550 --> 00:21:28,980
Don't you know full well
402
00:21:29,240 --> 00:21:30,380
how the Seven Sects are doing?
403
00:21:30,960 --> 00:21:32,140
How do they compare to five years ago?
404
00:21:32,720 --> 00:21:34,140
Or sixty years ago?
405
00:21:35,160 --> 00:21:37,850
It's because our strength is fading
406
00:21:37,920 --> 00:21:39,460
that we need the Trial Ground
407
00:21:39,480 --> 00:21:40,810
to gather more herbs,
408
00:21:41,160 --> 00:21:42,380
so our Qi Refining disciples
409
00:21:42,590 --> 00:21:43,140
can grow stronger
410
00:21:43,400 --> 00:21:44,330
and level up.
411
00:21:44,350 --> 00:21:44,900
Exactly!
412
00:21:44,920 --> 00:21:45,380
That's right.
413
00:21:45,480 --> 00:21:46,180
We can't just avoid
414
00:21:46,200 --> 00:21:47,490
the Trial Ground out of fear.
415
00:21:47,790 --> 00:21:48,250
Won't that
416
00:21:48,550 --> 00:21:49,490
be throwing the baby out with the bathwater?
417
00:21:49,510 --> 00:21:50,140
Exactly!
418
00:21:50,200 --> 00:21:50,860
It's just not worth it!
419
00:21:50,880 --> 00:21:51,900
Anyway, we don't agree.
420
00:21:51,920 --> 00:21:53,330
Why's everyone so stubborn?
421
00:21:54,750 --> 00:21:56,130
- I'm fine either way. - You sure?
422
00:21:56,510 --> 00:21:58,010
Before, it was a gamble every five years.
423
00:21:58,310 --> 00:21:59,700
Now it's one shot every sixty.
424
00:22:00,000 --> 00:22:00,490
I just wonder
425
00:22:00,590 --> 00:22:01,140
Can some folks afford
426
00:22:01,400 --> 00:22:02,180
to wait that long?
427
00:22:03,110 --> 00:22:03,900
Hey, you talking about me?
428
00:22:06,000 --> 00:22:07,010
Hongfu,
429
00:22:07,160 --> 00:22:08,380
please activate the Solunar Purification Pearl.
430
00:22:10,640 --> 00:22:11,180
Hongfu,
431
00:22:11,550 --> 00:22:12,900
if you would.
432
00:22:33,440 --> 00:22:34,090
What's that?
433
00:22:34,790 --> 00:22:35,900
The Solunar Purification Pearl!
434
00:22:37,240 --> 00:22:38,810
Looks like something's up with the elders.
435
00:22:39,200 --> 00:22:39,980
I'll go check it out.
436
00:22:41,440 --> 00:22:41,940
Miss Han.
437
00:22:43,310 --> 00:22:44,620
Come back safe from the Trial Ground.
438
00:22:46,030 --> 00:22:46,660
See you!
439
00:22:53,270 --> 00:22:54,620
What's the Solunar Purification Pearl?
440
00:22:55,720 --> 00:22:56,460
Fellow Elders,
441
00:22:57,440 --> 00:22:58,380
have you noticed
442
00:22:58,750 --> 00:22:59,980
anything different about the pearl?
443
00:23:00,510 --> 00:23:01,460
It's dimmer.
444
00:23:01,550 --> 00:23:02,250
It's not as bright
445
00:23:02,440 --> 00:23:03,380
as it used to be.
446
00:23:04,030 --> 00:23:04,620
That's right.
447
00:23:05,920 --> 00:23:06,900
The Solunar Purification Pearl
448
00:23:06,960 --> 00:23:08,010
was crafted by our sect's ancestors
449
00:23:08,400 --> 00:23:10,140
to dispel the mists within the Trial Ground.
450
00:23:10,880 --> 00:23:12,940
It glows with the essence of sun and moon.
451
00:23:13,310 --> 00:23:14,290
But what you may not know
452
00:23:15,640 --> 00:23:16,810
when the heavens shift,
453
00:23:17,240 --> 00:23:18,570
the pearl is affected too.
454
00:23:19,720 --> 00:23:20,770
Sun and moon should shine steady
455
00:23:20,920 --> 00:23:22,090
through the ages.
456
00:23:22,640 --> 00:23:24,090
But with the Trial Ground opening too often,
457
00:23:24,640 --> 00:23:26,010
the spiritual energy is drying up,
458
00:23:26,830 --> 00:23:28,290
and the pearl has lost its glow.
459
00:23:29,070 --> 00:23:30,490
Doesn't that prove my point?
460
00:23:34,590 --> 00:23:35,810
Now you understand?
461
00:23:37,590 --> 00:23:37,980
Come on,
462
00:23:38,350 --> 00:23:39,220
let's talk this through.
463
00:24:02,640 --> 00:24:04,570
The Trial Ground is so dangerous.
464
00:24:05,110 --> 00:24:06,380
Maybe I should wait for the next round
465
00:24:06,750 --> 00:24:08,050
when I'm better prepared.
466
00:24:11,720 --> 00:24:12,330
Did you hear that?
467
00:24:12,880 --> 00:24:14,090
From now on,
468
00:24:14,240 --> 00:24:15,660
the Trial Ground will open once every sixty years.
469
00:24:16,590 --> 00:24:17,770
Getting a Foundation Pill
470
00:24:17,960 --> 00:24:18,940
just got a lot harder.
471
00:24:19,400 --> 00:24:20,010
Yeah.
472
00:24:20,440 --> 00:24:21,770
If you don't reach the Foundation Establishment Stage,
473
00:24:22,070 --> 00:24:23,460
your lifespan tops out at around 200 years.
474
00:24:23,920 --> 00:24:25,010
Wait another sixty,
475
00:24:25,480 --> 00:24:26,570
we'll be old by then.
476
00:24:27,240 --> 00:24:28,530
Why not take this chance?
477
00:24:28,880 --> 00:24:30,010
Let's ask my cousin.
478
00:24:30,240 --> 00:24:30,980
If she goes, we go.
479
00:24:31,640 --> 00:24:32,090
No need to ask.
480
00:24:32,350 --> 00:24:33,050
If that Lu guy's going,
481
00:24:33,160 --> 00:24:34,090
you know she'll follow.
482
00:24:35,270 --> 00:24:36,700
But the rules have changed this time.
483
00:24:36,700 --> 00:24:38,140
There'll be way more disciples than usual.
484
00:24:38,790 --> 00:24:40,140
We've got to be extra careful.
485
00:24:40,680 --> 00:24:41,460
Losing your life over this
486
00:24:41,480 --> 00:24:42,730
just won't be worth it.
487
00:24:43,030 --> 00:24:43,460
Alright.
488
00:24:44,000 --> 00:24:44,570
Let's go.
489
00:24:44,680 --> 00:24:45,660
Everyone's lining up to sign in.
490
00:24:46,240 --> 00:24:46,660
Let's move!
491
00:24:49,200 --> 00:24:50,090
Once it closes again,
492
00:24:51,030 --> 00:24:52,140
it won't reopen for sixty years!
493
00:25:00,680 --> 00:25:01,290
Senior Xiang,
494
00:25:02,070 --> 00:25:02,860
didn't they say
495
00:25:02,920 --> 00:25:03,860
those signing up for the Trial Ground
496
00:25:03,880 --> 00:25:04,660
should gather here?
497
00:25:07,640 --> 00:25:08,940
Are we having the wrong spot?
498
00:25:11,440 --> 00:25:12,730
Who are you all waiting for?
499
00:25:15,310 --> 00:25:16,420
I'm right here.
500
00:25:17,830 --> 00:25:18,620
Grandmaster!
501
00:25:28,750 --> 00:25:30,330
Greetings, Grandmaster!
502
00:25:30,680 --> 00:25:31,810
Quite a turnout.
503
00:25:34,960 --> 00:25:35,770
Are you all ready
504
00:25:36,270 --> 00:25:38,220
to throw your lives away?
505
00:25:42,400 --> 00:25:43,700
I'm not trying to scare you,
506
00:25:43,960 --> 00:25:45,220
but out of thousands in our sect,
507
00:25:45,480 --> 00:25:46,420
do you know
508
00:25:47,070 --> 00:25:48,700
how many have reached the Foundation Establishment Stage?
509
00:25:50,480 --> 00:25:51,860
Barely a hundred.
510
00:25:53,200 --> 00:25:54,180
And do you know why?
511
00:25:54,720 --> 00:25:56,140
Because Foundation Pills are rare.
512
00:25:58,200 --> 00:25:59,380
That's only part of it.
513
00:26:00,590 --> 00:26:01,460
Listen,
514
00:26:01,640 --> 00:26:04,290
Qi Refining and Foundation Establishment may be just one stage apart.
515
00:26:04,310 --> 00:26:04,900
However,
516
00:26:05,400 --> 00:26:06,090
the gap between them
517
00:26:06,310 --> 00:26:08,220
is like night and day.
518
00:26:09,110 --> 00:26:09,810
That's why
519
00:26:10,000 --> 00:26:11,010
so many people,
520
00:26:11,440 --> 00:26:12,490
just like you,
521
00:26:13,030 --> 00:26:14,010
all want to enter
522
00:26:14,440 --> 00:26:15,090
the Trial Ground,
523
00:26:15,440 --> 00:26:16,220
hoping to get lucky.
524
00:26:16,790 --> 00:26:17,490
And the result?
525
00:26:18,550 --> 00:26:19,730
They die for nothing.
526
00:26:20,070 --> 00:26:21,220
Forget reaching Foundation Establishment,
527
00:26:21,920 --> 00:26:23,620
just surviving is a long shot.
528
00:26:25,680 --> 00:26:26,460
So,
529
00:26:27,160 --> 00:26:28,730
if you haven't come
530
00:26:28,880 --> 00:26:30,220
with the resolve to die,
531
00:26:31,160 --> 00:26:33,180
I suggest you leave now
532
00:26:33,830 --> 00:26:36,140
before your cultivation journey ends here.
533
00:26:37,270 --> 00:26:38,090
Of course,
534
00:26:39,110 --> 00:26:41,290
if you've heard me out
535
00:26:41,400 --> 00:26:43,050
and still want to go,
536
00:26:44,400 --> 00:26:45,220
step forward.
537
00:26:46,030 --> 00:26:47,090
Let's see who's got guts.
538
00:26:54,750 --> 00:26:55,180
Let's go.
539
00:26:55,310 --> 00:26:55,700
Wait...
540
00:26:55,920 --> 00:26:56,330
Hurry up!
541
00:27:09,440 --> 00:27:10,980
You thirteen guys here
542
00:27:11,000 --> 00:27:12,420
have heard
543
00:27:13,070 --> 00:27:14,090
the Trial Ground
544
00:27:14,110 --> 00:27:15,980
won't open again for sixty years, right?
545
00:27:19,310 --> 00:27:20,090
Not bad.
546
00:27:20,310 --> 00:27:21,010
Smart thinking.
547
00:27:22,240 --> 00:27:23,460
Our Yellow Maple Valley
548
00:27:23,830 --> 00:27:25,010
has fifteen spots
549
00:27:25,920 --> 00:27:27,050
this time.
550
00:27:28,310 --> 00:27:29,090
Two are still open.
551
00:27:30,160 --> 00:27:31,050
Me!
552
00:27:31,920 --> 00:27:32,420
Count me in!
553
00:27:35,440 --> 00:27:36,490
Can you handle it
554
00:27:36,830 --> 00:27:37,460
at your age?
555
00:27:38,480 --> 00:27:41,050
I just can't wait another sixty years!
556
00:27:42,400 --> 00:27:42,940
Fair enough.
557
00:27:44,030 --> 00:27:45,180
That leaves one spot.
558
00:27:45,550 --> 00:27:46,050
Alright then.
559
00:27:46,680 --> 00:27:47,570
I'll count to three.
560
00:27:48,920 --> 00:27:49,460
One...
561
00:27:54,480 --> 00:27:55,530
Jumped early, huh?
562
00:27:59,160 --> 00:28:00,860
You're only at Tier 11 of Qi Refining.
563
00:28:01,030 --> 00:28:02,140
You want to die out there?
564
00:28:03,510 --> 00:28:04,090
Grandmaster,
565
00:28:04,440 --> 00:28:05,460
I may lack talent,
566
00:28:06,440 --> 00:28:07,220
but I don't have sixty years
567
00:28:07,440 --> 00:28:08,090
to spare.
568
00:28:08,790 --> 00:28:09,770
Please grant me this chance.
569
00:28:12,160 --> 00:28:12,570
Not bad.
570
00:28:13,640 --> 00:28:14,180
Bold kid.
571
00:28:14,920 --> 00:28:15,420
I like it.
572
00:28:17,790 --> 00:28:19,330
Shame about the talent though.
573
00:28:20,350 --> 00:28:20,810
Alright,
574
00:28:22,110 --> 00:28:22,810
the rest of you
575
00:28:23,510 --> 00:28:23,940
go home.
576
00:28:24,960 --> 00:28:25,490
Grandmaster!
577
00:28:25,590 --> 00:28:26,490
I want to go too!
578
00:28:26,590 --> 00:28:27,140
Grandmaster!
579
00:28:27,270 --> 00:28:28,730
What were you waiting for earlier?
580
00:28:29,830 --> 00:28:30,290
Get back for now.
581
00:28:31,480 --> 00:28:32,010
If you still want to go,
582
00:28:32,400 --> 00:28:33,660
wait for the next batch sixty years later.
583
00:28:34,440 --> 00:28:36,090
I'll be 120 in sixty years, Grandmaster!
584
00:28:36,160 --> 00:28:37,860
Please, give us one more chance!
585
00:28:38,400 --> 00:28:40,380
There's still training and testing ahead.
586
00:28:40,920 --> 00:28:42,250
If someone drops out,
587
00:28:42,510 --> 00:28:44,380
you may get called in.
588
00:28:44,680 --> 00:28:45,460
Alright, enough. Head back.
589
00:28:46,030 --> 00:28:46,420
Go on, now.
590
00:28:46,440 --> 00:28:47,220
We're so lucky.
591
00:28:49,680 --> 00:28:50,330
Getting picked today
592
00:28:51,070 --> 00:28:51,900
took some luck!
593
00:28:54,790 --> 00:28:56,730
Everything starts with courage.
594
00:28:58,270 --> 00:28:58,940
Congratulations.
595
00:28:59,750 --> 00:29:01,530
You've passed the first round
596
00:29:02,550 --> 00:29:03,250
of my test.
597
00:29:05,480 --> 00:29:06,620
Thank you, Grandmaster!
598
00:29:07,510 --> 00:29:09,570
The Bloody Trial is more than just a treasure hunt.
599
00:29:10,030 --> 00:29:10,810
This is a mission
600
00:29:10,830 --> 00:29:12,700
that affects our sect's standing among the Seven Sects.
601
00:29:13,240 --> 00:29:14,860
It can shape our future power.
602
00:29:17,000 --> 00:29:18,460
To make sure you all come back alive,
603
00:29:19,110 --> 00:29:20,140
I'll be training you thoroughly.
604
00:29:20,720 --> 00:29:21,940
This trip is extremely dangerous.
605
00:29:22,680 --> 00:29:24,290
If you're having second thoughts,
606
00:29:24,550 --> 00:29:25,730
now's the time to back out,
607
00:29:26,200 --> 00:29:27,220
before you lose your life in there.
608
00:29:28,640 --> 00:29:29,980
Inside, the weather's brutal
609
00:29:30,310 --> 00:29:31,220
and wildly unpredictable,
610
00:29:31,880 --> 00:29:33,520
with rugged terrain.
611
00:29:34,070 --> 00:29:36,240
Many don't even survive day one,
612
00:29:36,590 --> 00:29:38,100
brought down
613
00:29:38,200 --> 00:29:39,090
by nature itself.
614
00:29:40,830 --> 00:29:42,810
You'll need to memorize these herbs:
615
00:29:43,270 --> 00:29:44,090
Jade Marrow Mushroom,
616
00:29:46,880 --> 00:29:47,620
Violet Monkey Blossom,
617
00:29:50,440 --> 00:29:51,330
and Celestial Essence Fruit.
618
00:29:52,640 --> 00:29:54,090
These are key herbs
619
00:29:54,110 --> 00:29:56,010
for the Foundation Pill.
620
00:29:56,310 --> 00:29:57,090
The Trial Ground
621
00:29:57,510 --> 00:29:58,860
is crawling with demon beasts.
622
00:29:59,480 --> 00:30:00,530
If you want those herbs,
623
00:30:01,160 --> 00:30:02,380
you'll have to get past them first.
624
00:30:03,350 --> 00:30:04,180
If you can't,
625
00:30:04,920 --> 00:30:06,490
you'll be their dinner.
626
00:30:07,880 --> 00:30:09,330
The disciples in the Trial Ground
627
00:30:09,480 --> 00:30:10,570
fall into three general categories.
628
00:30:10,920 --> 00:30:11,380
First,
629
00:30:12,070 --> 00:30:12,900
the weak ones,
630
00:30:13,720 --> 00:30:15,490
like some of you here.
631
00:30:16,200 --> 00:30:17,530
Some are forced to come,
632
00:30:17,830 --> 00:30:19,180
others are just gambling on luck.
633
00:30:19,880 --> 00:30:20,620
These disciples
634
00:30:21,160 --> 00:30:22,290
usually don't survive the first day.
635
00:30:23,080 --> 00:30:23,810
Second,
636
00:30:24,530 --> 00:30:25,670
those with decent cultivation
637
00:30:25,830 --> 00:30:27,330
but not true experts.
638
00:30:27,680 --> 00:30:29,770
Some of them cut corners.
639
00:30:30,790 --> 00:30:32,290
They skip herb gathering
640
00:30:32,590 --> 00:30:33,420
and try
641
00:30:33,480 --> 00:30:35,090
to kill others for loot.
642
00:30:36,790 --> 00:30:38,220
But by day three,
643
00:30:39,110 --> 00:30:40,900
the cleverest among them
644
00:30:41,350 --> 00:30:42,660
start vanishing
645
00:30:42,880 --> 00:30:44,460
in the Trial Ground,
646
00:30:44,790 --> 00:30:45,700
without a trace.
647
00:30:46,680 --> 00:30:47,460
That's when
648
00:30:47,720 --> 00:30:49,220
the third group shows up.
649
00:30:49,720 --> 00:30:50,460
Grandmaster,
650
00:30:50,880 --> 00:30:52,290
what about the third group?
651
00:30:52,790 --> 00:30:54,010
They're the ones
652
00:30:54,400 --> 00:30:55,090
who know
653
00:30:55,200 --> 00:30:56,180
how to bide their time
654
00:30:56,350 --> 00:30:58,570
and hide their power.
655
00:30:58,880 --> 00:31:00,250
When they finally strike,
656
00:31:00,400 --> 00:31:01,220
they each
657
00:31:01,350 --> 00:31:02,700
reveal their true strength.
658
00:31:02,920 --> 00:31:03,690
Grandmaster!
659
00:31:04,000 --> 00:31:05,070
With all that said,
660
00:31:05,110 --> 00:31:06,810
which group survives the most?
661
00:31:07,200 --> 00:31:08,380
Naturally, the third,
662
00:31:08,680 --> 00:31:09,770
the real powerhouses.
663
00:31:10,270 --> 00:31:10,770
Wrong.
664
00:31:11,920 --> 00:31:12,900
It's the first group.
665
00:31:13,400 --> 00:31:13,860
The...
666
00:31:14,160 --> 00:31:14,980
the first group?
667
00:31:16,640 --> 00:31:18,530
Standing out makes you a target.
668
00:31:19,270 --> 00:31:20,380
Everyone entering the Trial Ground
669
00:31:20,400 --> 00:31:22,050
has some kind of skill.
670
00:31:22,750 --> 00:31:24,180
But without caution,
671
00:31:24,750 --> 00:31:25,860
even the strongest
672
00:31:26,240 --> 00:31:28,140
end up dead and gone.
673
00:31:29,030 --> 00:31:30,420
And the weakest?
674
00:31:31,160 --> 00:31:33,170
They accept their limits early on.
675
00:31:33,640 --> 00:31:35,040
And that
676
00:31:35,040 --> 00:31:37,140
often help them make it out alive.
677
00:31:37,790 --> 00:31:38,730
"Hide cleverness with clumsiness."
678
00:31:38,940 --> 00:31:40,340
- We won't be cowards - "Do good with discretion."
679
00:31:40,340 --> 00:31:41,750
- in the Trial Ground! - Never thought
680
00:31:42,160 --> 00:31:43,670
everything Physician Mo taught me...
681
00:31:43,670 --> 00:31:44,260
Let's grab the most spirit herbs!
682
00:31:44,260 --> 00:31:45,780
- ...would still hold up in the cultivation world. - Let's beat Moonshadow Sect!
683
00:31:45,920 --> 00:31:47,250
Let's beat Moonshadow Sect!
684
00:31:47,590 --> 00:31:48,700
We'll crush Saber-Shearing Sect!
685
00:31:48,700 --> 00:31:49,680
- Crush them! - Crush them!
686
00:31:49,680 --> 00:31:50,800
We're outpacing Spirit Beast Mountain!
687
00:31:50,800 --> 00:31:51,600
We'll wipe out Giant Sword Sect!
688
00:31:51,640 --> 00:31:52,970
We'll wipe out Giant Sword Sect!
689
00:31:53,160 --> 00:31:54,080
Alright, that's enough.
690
00:31:54,440 --> 00:31:55,240
I love the enthusiasm.
691
00:31:56,240 --> 00:31:57,330
But I'll say it again:
692
00:31:57,830 --> 00:31:59,050
what matters most is coming back alive.
693
00:32:00,830 --> 00:32:01,700
Yes, Grandmaster.
694
00:32:09,680 --> 00:32:10,770
The Solunar Purification Pearl
695
00:32:11,400 --> 00:32:12,460
was crafted by our ancestors
696
00:32:12,960 --> 00:32:14,180
specifically for navigating the Trial Ground.
697
00:32:14,960 --> 00:32:16,490
It emits radiant light
698
00:32:17,200 --> 00:32:18,140
and suppresses
699
00:32:18,200 --> 00:32:19,330
all manner of toxic mist.
700
00:32:20,200 --> 00:32:22,040
In the Bloody Trial,
701
00:32:22,590 --> 00:32:23,720
there's an artifact
702
00:32:24,240 --> 00:32:25,460
called the Solunar Purification Pearl.
703
00:32:26,240 --> 00:32:27,290
It shines like sun and moon.
704
00:32:28,030 --> 00:32:29,810
It worked so well
705
00:32:29,830 --> 00:32:30,730
in the Trial Ground
706
00:32:30,960 --> 00:32:32,420
that the other six sects protested.
707
00:32:33,830 --> 00:32:34,660
Our sect
708
00:32:34,720 --> 00:32:36,220
had to surrender it.
709
00:32:36,640 --> 00:32:38,330
It became shared property of all Seven Sects.
710
00:32:39,270 --> 00:32:40,410
After each Bloody Trial,
711
00:32:41,110 --> 00:32:42,730
the sect holding the pearl
712
00:32:42,730 --> 00:32:43,810
must pass it to the next.
713
00:32:44,400 --> 00:32:45,250
This year,
714
00:32:45,750 --> 00:32:47,090
it's returned to our hands.
715
00:32:49,070 --> 00:32:50,050
The Seven Sects agreed:
716
00:32:50,240 --> 00:32:51,420
the pearl can only be activated
717
00:32:51,590 --> 00:32:52,980
on the fourth day.
718
00:32:55,000 --> 00:32:55,900
So, Grandmaster,
719
00:32:56,440 --> 00:32:57,900
does that mean it'll be easier
720
00:32:58,310 --> 00:33:00,050
to collect herbs on day four?
721
00:33:01,680 --> 00:33:02,660
Quite the opposite.
722
00:33:03,720 --> 00:33:05,490
Until the Solunar Purification Pearl appears,
723
00:33:06,110 --> 00:33:07,420
you'll be relatively safe.
724
00:33:08,440 --> 00:33:10,250
Once it's out,
725
00:33:11,440 --> 00:33:13,140
you better start hiding.
726
00:33:15,200 --> 00:33:15,940
Why's that?
727
00:33:16,510 --> 00:33:18,900
Because its appearance signals the start of killing.
728
00:33:20,310 --> 00:33:21,140
Think about it.
729
00:33:22,350 --> 00:33:23,980
If you've spent three days
730
00:33:24,000 --> 00:33:26,330
and still haven't found a single herb,
731
00:33:27,270 --> 00:33:29,220
what will you do
732
00:33:30,440 --> 00:33:31,380
with limited time left?
733
00:33:32,720 --> 00:33:33,570
Kill for treasure.
734
00:33:36,240 --> 00:33:37,900
Now, I must pass the pearl
735
00:33:37,920 --> 00:33:39,250
to one of you.
736
00:33:40,350 --> 00:33:40,980
Yan Ruyan.
737
00:33:44,480 --> 00:33:45,810
I won't let you down, Master.
738
00:33:46,880 --> 00:33:47,940
How's your health lately?
739
00:33:48,750 --> 00:33:49,420
Any more
740
00:33:49,440 --> 00:33:51,050
fainting spells?
741
00:33:52,000 --> 00:33:53,180
Thanks for your concern, Master.
742
00:33:53,240 --> 00:33:54,180
I've been much better.
743
00:33:54,590 --> 00:33:55,980
Since joining the sect,
744
00:33:56,160 --> 00:33:58,250
my old heart condition hasn't returned.
745
00:33:59,590 --> 00:34:01,380
Even so, don't let your guard down.
746
00:34:02,200 --> 00:34:03,330
I've studied the ancient texts.
747
00:34:03,790 --> 00:34:05,220
To fully cure you,
748
00:34:05,590 --> 00:34:07,620
you'll need a Dark Spirit Root cultivator
749
00:34:07,880 --> 00:34:08,700
to balance your yin and yang.
750
00:34:09,920 --> 00:34:11,220
Thanks for the care, Master.
751
00:34:11,480 --> 00:34:14,010
But right now, cultivation is my only focus.
752
00:34:14,480 --> 00:34:15,700
I'm not ready to think about marriage.
753
00:34:16,590 --> 00:34:17,420
You had me stay behind.
754
00:34:17,440 --> 00:34:18,290
I assume you've got a task for me.
755
00:34:19,160 --> 00:34:20,400
You'll lead the team
756
00:34:20,440 --> 00:34:21,290
into the Trial Ground,
757
00:34:21,640 --> 00:34:23,010
and guard the pearl.
758
00:34:23,550 --> 00:34:25,330
There's one more task, something important.
759
00:34:26,640 --> 00:34:27,250
What is it?
760
00:34:31,640 --> 00:34:32,900
There'll be battles for sure
761
00:34:33,440 --> 00:34:34,730
during this Trial.
762
00:34:35,480 --> 00:34:37,050
I'd better to prepare some solid artifacts.
763
00:34:45,590 --> 00:34:46,730

I am Wangyu,
764
00:34:46,880 --> 00:34:48,620
shopkeeper of Treasure House.
765
00:34:50,110 --> 00:34:50,980
My name...
766
00:34:52,070 --> 00:34:52,700
is Li Feiyu,
767
00:34:53,200 --> 00:34:53,900
a rogue cultivator.
768
00:34:55,270 --> 00:34:56,530
I'm looking for some artifacts.
769
00:34:57,160 --> 00:34:57,810
Price is not an issue.
770
00:35:00,640 --> 00:35:01,730
Mr. Li, I like how direct you are.
771
00:35:02,680 --> 00:35:03,330
Come on in.
772
00:35:03,550 --> 00:35:04,940
Brew a pot of top-grade tea.
773
00:35:05,270 --> 00:35:05,770
Yes, sir.
774
00:35:06,200 --> 00:35:06,700
No need.
775
00:35:07,000 --> 00:35:07,460
I'm not here
776
00:35:07,550 --> 00:35:08,460
for tea and chit-chat.
777
00:35:08,920 --> 00:35:10,010
If you've got nothing good,
778
00:35:10,880 --> 00:35:11,940
I won't waste my time.
779
00:35:12,790 --> 00:35:14,180
Wait, Mr. Li!
780
00:35:20,790 --> 00:35:22,700
This is a full set of Mother-Child Blades.
781
00:35:23,720 --> 00:35:24,460
One mother blade,
782
00:35:24,640 --> 00:35:25,490
and eight child blades.
783
00:35:25,720 --> 00:35:27,730
They're forged from refined steel and pure gold
784
00:35:27,750 --> 00:35:28,900
by a master craftsman
785
00:35:29,240 --> 00:35:31,090
over three days and nights.
786
00:35:31,790 --> 00:35:34,090
With the mother blade in hand,
787
00:35:34,110 --> 00:35:35,700
you can control all eight child blades at once.
788
00:35:36,000 --> 00:35:37,780
The enemy won't just be overwhelmed,
789
00:35:37,960 --> 00:35:38,530
they'll lose their minds.
790
00:35:40,240 --> 00:35:40,770
You'll be unstoppable!
791
00:35:51,440 --> 00:35:52,940
This is the Mystic Iron Flying Shield,
792
00:35:53,960 --> 00:35:56,340
a rare defensive artifact.
793
00:35:56,960 --> 00:35:57,460
It's forged
794
00:35:57,670 --> 00:35:59,900
from mystic iron mined in the icy land.
795
00:36:00,280 --> 00:36:01,300
Not only is it tough,
796
00:36:01,550 --> 00:36:02,690
once activated,
797
00:36:02,840 --> 00:36:03,940
it orbits your body
798
00:36:04,440 --> 00:36:05,090
and defends you automatically!
799
00:36:13,110 --> 00:36:14,210
Tell me, Mr. Li,
800
00:36:14,230 --> 00:36:15,780
what have you been through?
801
00:36:16,920 --> 00:36:17,980
Some big-shot battlefield?
802
00:36:19,590 --> 00:36:20,010
Alright then.
803
00:36:21,630 --> 00:36:22,090
No more pretending.
804
00:36:22,840 --> 00:36:23,650
Let me show you
805
00:36:23,920 --> 00:36:24,980
my favorite little toy.
806
00:36:27,670 --> 00:36:28,490
The Thunder Ball!
807
00:36:29,400 --> 00:36:32,170
It's formed from condensed heavenly lightning.
808
00:36:35,280 --> 00:36:36,170
Even
809
00:36:37,000 --> 00:36:38,570
a Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator
810
00:36:39,030 --> 00:36:40,010
will be blasted to dust
811
00:36:40,880 --> 00:36:41,900
if caught head-on.
812
00:36:44,510 --> 00:36:45,170
Just gone like that.
813
00:36:51,230 --> 00:36:51,940
It's rare, sure.
814
00:36:54,030 --> 00:36:55,130
But it comes with a fine price.
815
00:36:57,670 --> 00:36:58,130
You sure
816
00:36:58,280 --> 00:36:59,650
you can afford it?
817
00:37:10,320 --> 00:37:11,130
Golden Glow Ganoderma?
818
00:37:12,920 --> 00:37:14,150
That's not worth much.
819
00:37:14,190 --> 00:37:14,820
Come on now.
820
00:37:22,710 --> 00:37:24,010
Even one over a hundred years old
821
00:37:24,030 --> 00:37:25,340
barely fetches anything.
822
00:37:26,030 --> 00:37:26,820
Smell it again.
823
00:37:32,590 --> 00:37:33,170
Five hundred?
824
00:37:33,400 --> 00:37:33,980
Five hundred years old?
825
00:37:36,440 --> 00:37:36,940
It's five hundred years old!
826
00:37:38,320 --> 00:37:38,900
Alright, that's fair.
827
00:37:42,440 --> 00:37:43,170
I want more.
828
00:37:43,840 --> 00:37:45,170
Bring out your best stuff.
829
00:37:57,670 --> 00:37:58,420
Close your eyes.
830
00:38:07,710 --> 00:38:09,340
This is the Golden Brick Talisman,
831
00:38:10,550 --> 00:38:12,540
our shop's finest treasure!
832
00:38:16,070 --> 00:38:17,000
Only a cultivator
833
00:38:17,070 --> 00:38:20,090
at the Core Formation Stage can craft one.
834
00:38:22,800 --> 00:38:25,960
It's a bit slow to activate,
835
00:38:25,960 --> 00:38:27,160
but it's far
836
00:38:27,590 --> 00:38:28,050
from ordinary.
837
00:38:29,110 --> 00:38:29,530
Now tell me,
838
00:38:30,110 --> 00:38:30,880
Mr. Li.
839
00:38:31,230 --> 00:38:31,920
Which treasure
840
00:38:32,800 --> 00:38:33,880
do you want?
841
00:38:36,960 --> 00:38:37,780
I'll take them all.
842
00:38:43,920 --> 00:38:45,090
You're talking
843
00:38:45,400 --> 00:38:46,050
like a real big spender.
844
00:38:46,070 --> 00:38:47,210
But Mr. Li,
845
00:38:48,480 --> 00:38:49,050
aren't you mistaken?
846
00:38:50,480 --> 00:38:50,860
Yes,
847
00:38:51,400 --> 00:38:52,090
your herbs
848
00:38:52,480 --> 00:38:53,480
are rare,
849
00:38:54,480 --> 00:38:55,860
but still not enough to trade...
850
00:39:00,280 --> 00:39:00,820
for all of this.
851
00:39:01,710 --> 00:39:02,420
Who said
852
00:39:03,360 --> 00:39:04,860
I only brought five-hundred-year herbs?
853
00:39:29,000 --> 00:39:29,490
A thousand years.
854
00:39:31,000 --> 00:39:31,420
It's a thousand years old!
855
00:39:34,440 --> 00:39:34,980
Deal.
856
00:39:36,320 --> 00:39:36,820
It's all yours.
857
00:39:36,920 --> 00:39:37,300
Including the table,
858
00:39:37,480 --> 00:39:37,940
the gourd,
859
00:39:38,110 --> 00:39:39,170
and the tea set, take it all.
860
00:39:45,800 --> 00:39:47,300
The Bloody Trial Ground is extremely dangerous.
861
00:39:47,480 --> 00:39:48,740
We'll need to stick together.
862
00:39:49,760 --> 00:39:50,460
Yes.
863
00:39:50,880 --> 00:39:51,860
I'm not going with you.
864
00:39:52,150 --> 00:39:53,210
I'll be moving solo!
865
00:39:53,920 --> 00:39:54,380
Senior!
866
00:39:54,800 --> 00:39:55,530
What's wrong, Senior?
867
00:39:57,190 --> 00:39:57,820
Enough.
868
00:39:57,840 --> 00:39:58,690
Don't just stand there!
869
00:39:58,760 --> 00:39:59,490
Go get the Grandmaster, now!
870
00:40:00,440 --> 00:40:01,260
Her old illness is acting up again!
871
00:40:04,880 --> 00:40:05,940
I'm in the middle of nowhere,
872
00:40:06,360 --> 00:40:07,780
perfect place to test my new artifacts.
873
00:40:09,110 --> 00:40:10,740
Mother-Child Blades...
874
00:40:12,030 --> 00:40:12,780
Lu Mingyuan,
875
00:40:13,150 --> 00:40:14,380
I even gave you my Foundation Pill.
876
00:40:14,760 --> 00:40:15,820
Now you're breaking off the engagement?
877
00:40:17,190 --> 00:40:17,690
Someone's there!
878
00:40:17,760 --> 00:40:18,420
Qiaoqian,
879
00:40:18,480 --> 00:40:19,420
was that really necessary?
880
00:40:19,550 --> 00:40:21,820
If I can win Dong Xuan'er's favor,
881
00:40:22,030 --> 00:40:23,050
then Grandmaster Hongfu
882
00:40:23,070 --> 00:40:24,940
may take me as her disciple.
883
00:40:26,030 --> 00:40:27,300
Why will I still need your pill?
884
00:40:28,550 --> 00:40:30,610
You're an absolute idiot.
885
00:40:31,510 --> 00:40:32,340
Alright.
886
00:40:33,110 --> 00:40:33,740
Soon enough,
887
00:40:33,880 --> 00:40:35,490
you'll see how lucky you were
888
00:40:35,710 --> 00:40:36,820
to have me.
889
00:40:38,230 --> 00:40:38,820
Get your hands off me!
890
00:40:44,480 --> 00:40:46,380
My father will know we're done.
891
00:40:47,000 --> 00:40:48,530
Keep dreaming!
892
00:40:56,480 --> 00:40:57,460
Give me back my Foundation Pill.
893
00:41:01,880 --> 00:41:03,050
Even if you don't,
894
00:41:03,400 --> 00:41:05,170
the Chen family will come for it.
895
00:41:05,840 --> 00:41:07,090
We're done here.
896
00:41:13,000 --> 00:41:13,740
Easy, Qiaoqian.
897
00:41:14,150 --> 00:41:14,780
No need to worry.
898
00:41:15,480 --> 00:41:17,570
That's just my Wind Bind spell.
899
00:41:18,320 --> 00:41:19,460
If you aren't the only heiress
900
00:41:19,550 --> 00:41:21,610
of the Chen family,
901
00:41:22,000 --> 00:41:23,820
maybe I'll let you go.
902
00:41:25,280 --> 00:41:26,090
But honestly,
903
00:41:26,510 --> 00:41:28,570
I'm worried you'll hold a grudge
904
00:41:29,030 --> 00:41:30,050
and get back at me.
905
00:41:31,920 --> 00:41:32,570
So I'll take
906
00:41:32,920 --> 00:41:33,940
your Foundation Pill.
907
00:41:35,070 --> 00:41:36,050
As for you...
908
00:41:36,920 --> 00:41:38,940
it'd be best if you disappeared
909
00:41:39,110 --> 00:41:40,300
from this world.
910
00:41:46,230 --> 00:41:46,900
How did scum like him
911
00:41:47,230 --> 00:41:48,380
end up in Yellow Maple Valley?
