Once upon a Time in LingJian Mountain

Episode 34

Liu Xian, what should we do?

How could I know?

What’s up?

I’m busy scolding my disciple.

Have a look.

Who did it?

Wu, it’s my fault.

I found

a heavenly anomaly.

I thought

the Matrix was under attack.

So I went to take a look.

But...

when I came back,

that’s what have become of the Champion Tower.

Did you see who did it?

No.

I was out for one minute.

And I saw nobody.

Forget it. Get it repaired.

I wish I can.

I had checked it before you came.

Most of it has been damaged.

Even we use the magic stones

in Lingjian Mountain to repair it,

it takes at least 7 days.

7 days?

The Five Sects Championships would be over then.

So does our perfect plan against

Shengjing Sect.

If there’s no other way,

we could build an arena

and change the rules.

Don't make it complicated.

Come on, what do we need an arena for?

Vebationes?

It’s the Five Sects Championships!

What is your plan?

Alright. Alright.

We’re running late

to design a new one on a new weapon.

Stop it.

Master Liu.

Why did you call them here?

You’re trying to embarrass me?

It’s a critical issue.

Master Feng Yin is in seclusion.

The Championships are scheduled tomorrow.

Will you take the responsibility?

Can you?

Welcome, leaders.

Give it straight.

I’m no longer

as young as you guys.

I can’t stay up late.

Here is the thing.

The Championships

were delicately designed by Master Wang.

But we got a situation here.

The weapon for the Championships is damaged.

And we don’t have enough time to repair it.

It’s quite an emergency.

So we invite you here to work out a solution

for the Championships scheduled tomorrow.

I see.

But it comes up so sudden.

We don't take weapons

the same level as

the Champion Tower with us.

Moreover, we have to redesign

the rules for the Five Sects Championships.

I’m afraid it’s a task

can’t be completed overnight.

You’re too uninformed.

Luckily,

the Spirit Gate here

is designed for the next Five Sects Championships

to be held at the capital, Chang’an.

The weapon you designed was damaged.

So I’d like to borrow it to you

for emergency use.

I don’t need it.

Yes, we do.

We do, really.

Hold it.

On behalf of Lingjian Sect,

thank you, Master Shuiyue.

I promise.

I’ll guard the weapon well

and return it intact to you

after the Championships.

It’s OK. No need to be wary.

As you know,

Shengjing Sect has deep pockets

and they have lots of weapons.

Alright. Alright.

I need to go back to bed.

A good night sleep gives us strength to fight.

See you tomorrow.

Master Wu,

you're welcome.

See you tomorrow at the Championships.

I...

Wu, calm down.

My guess, it was his doing.

But he saves the day.

Don't be angry.

Calm down.

Easy.

Or we would lose this one, too.

Well done!

Master.

Good job.

We destroyed Wang Lu and his master’s plan

without leaving any trace.

Let’s see if the two of them

can cheat in the Championships.

The Spirit Gate is your weapon, Master.

so in the Championships tomorrow,

we from Shengjing Sect

are the destined winner.

Not necessarily.

The Spirit Gate is named spirit

because the vision it creates is random

and unpredictable.

It’s ideal for the Championships

and also hard for the challengers.

Even though I’m its designer,

I’m unable to foresee

the test you may have tomorrow.

Well...

In the end,

we’re still on our own tomorrow.

What?

You have no confidence in yourself?

No.

That’s not what I mean, Master.

Rest assured, Master.

I’ll help Du within my power

pass the test

and take the championship.

Good.

But I have to

remind you.

Among all the disciples from the five sects,

you need to pay special attention to two of them.

Xue Zefang from Junhuang Mountain,

and Wang Lu from Lingjian Sect.

You take care of Xue Zefang.

And you deal with Wang Lu.

Yes, Master.

If you can eliminate the two of them,

the Championship is no doubt ours to take.

I’m counting on you.

Don’t let me down.

Yes.

Wang Lu! Wen Bao!

Here! Here!

I miss you, Liuli.

I heard you were punished again.

How old are you?

You messed up with your master again?

You know my master’s tempered.

If it were your master,

he wouldn’t punish me.

Great!

We’re fighting side by side again.

We’re the perfect team ever.

Where is Hai?

Didn’t we have a deal

to stay together forever?

Since he was dispelled from Lingjian Sect,

he has become a disciple to Master Shuiyue.

But that makes him a traitor.

All right.

Don’t let it ruin our mood.

He’s a different man now. Let’s wish him well.

We’ll see him in the field.

The purpose of this Championships

is to improve the spirit of Tao and magic.

The field is set for the young

to deliver your dreams and make history.

I’m the chairwoman of the appraisal panel,

Wang Wu.

Dear disciples,

how do you think?

Is it quite a surprise to have

such a gorgeous girl as the chairwoman?

Now I’d like to

give my best wishes.

Hope you achieve faster, higher and stronger.

All right.

Let me announce the rules.

The weapon for this Championships is Spirit Gate.

What?

Spirit Gate?

But...we had a deal.

It’s supposed to be a tower.

No tower? How am I going to get the champion?

What’s Spirit Gate?

The challengers will be teleported

to Spirit Gate

where you’ll go through the visions.

You get scores for each level you pass.

At last, the disciple with the most scores wins

and become the champion.

There are visions?

Does that mean we may not

come out after we get in?

How can it be?

If I’m stuck there,

I won’t be able to

eat so many good snacks out here.

Well, I quit.

Liuli.

Listen to me.

If you take the championship,

you’ll be rewarded a VIP Card

that allows you to eat in all the canteens

for free and forever.

I want the championship.

All right.

So much for the rules.

I wish you all come back safe.

Do you feel a little bit nervous?

Well, you should be.

Go, disciples!

Master Shuiyue,

I thought your weapon was formidable.

Turns out it goes on manual.

How low it is!

The Spirit Gate provides a number of visions.

To make sure it works,

it’s not enough with the power of magic stones.

It requires the leaders’ support with our magic

to keep it in function

and guarantee the disciples’ safety.

Besides,

the vision created in Spirit Gate is random,

which leaves no room for cheating.

That’s the key.

Guys, did you hear that?

He was mocking me for cheating.

I never said that.

I think you’re just feeling guilty.

Me? Guilty?

Just be honest with me.

Did you send someone

damage the Champion Tower?

Give a dog a bad name and hang him.

Shut the hell up.

I’m going to smack you.

Wait.

Master Wu, we have to keep the weapon in function.

It’s concerning to your disciple’s safety.

Calm down.

Speaking of my disciple,

I feel much better now.

He’s so handsome.

Curvature of space, 2.6.

Relative humidity, 28.

Nimbus density at level A.

Refractive index, 42.

The space is intact.

But the vulnerability of the stone gate

is way below the levels of the other spaces.

If I’m right, we can make it

through via this gate.

The Almighty Sect is indeed skillful.

It’s said the Almighty Sect

is the craftsman of the cultivation world.

Zhan, in such conditions,

you can calculate all kinds of numbers.

Respect!

I’m flattered.

You’re too modest.

I’m Mumu. Nice to meet you.

So full of useless craps!

We’re not blind.

It says there on the stone gate,

the Spirit Gate.

If the breakthrough is not there,

where can it be, in your body?

Hilarious!

Zefang, why are you so angry?

Are you jealous because Zhou talks to him?

Nonsense.

I’m so fed up

that someone’s putting on airs.

Really?

You don’t have the courage to admit you like Zhou.

My opinion,

you’re the one putting on airs.

What’s it with you?

Nothing.

But

you don’t have a chance.

You’re out of her league.

Du, mind your words.

Du,

what does that mean?

They may have to put up with your insult,

but we from Junhuang Mountain won’t.

Really?

If you’re so awesome,

why Hai

gave up his royal title

and sought apprenticeship from us?

Because

he knows which sect is more powerful.

Go to hell.

Come at me.

Zefang, hold it.

The five sects are supposed to be friendly.

Don't ruin our friendship for temper.

I guess the gate is time-limited.

Let’s get going.

Or it'd be too late.

What’s up, Lu?

Xinyao and the others all went in.

Why do we stop?

Let’s go.

Let’s go.

Six Lights Prison!

What’s going on?

We can’t go out.

We’re stuck here.

Losers!

Bastard! Let us out.

Break the formation.

Let us out.

What are you doing?

Where’s my sword?

It’s here.

Let us out. You...

Watch out!

You did it.

Lu, you’re so observant.

Shengjing Sect’s illusion, Mirror and Reflect

is indeed deceitful.

Thank you for your compliment.

You’re too modest.

Your disciple, Du Songzi,

made a smart move.

He distracted the others with a Flash Charm,

and then hid the real entrance

closely behind a fake gate

with magic.

After that, he created a count-down

to leave the others no time to think

but fall into his trap.

He made such a careful trap

in so little time.

It is indeed a great job.

Really?

What if Junhuang Mountain

didn’t perform Six Lights Prison on them?

That’s just your excuse.

Whatever it’s locked in the light prison

or free out of it,

they just don’t have to be the first to go in.

However,

Du Songzi provoked Junhuang Mountain

to give himself a perfect excuse to stay behind

and make everything reasonable for them.

I don’t care.

All I care about is my disciples’ whereabouts.

Yes.

Are they in danger?

It’s just a dimension sack.

They’ll be fine.

Unfortunately,

most of your disciples have been

eliminated before it even starts.

Despicable men!

All you’re capable of are evil tricks.

Where is your honor?

Lord Dilun,

how could you say that?

It’s just a friendly competition.

You see General Hai

almost lost every chance he has,

yet he’s still a man of honor.

What a man!

Master Wu, you’re a sensible woman.

Let’s wait and see

who claims the championship.

It’s not about my observance.

Your big mouth gave you in.

From your baffling provocation,

I could feel that you were after something.

Later, Xue Zefang lost his temper.

That gave you the perfect cover.

Luckily, I was on guard against you.

Or I’d be fooled by you, too.

Lu.

How did you find out I created an illusion?

Next time when you perform Mirror and Reflect,

remember to create your image in it.

If you want to fool everyone, make it flawless.

And,

next time you put on a show,

you can inform your guys.

Or dummies like Hai Yunfan

may ruin your plan.

I admit our failure. So enough with your preach.

Now everyone from Shengjing Sect is here.

While half of your teammates have been eliminated.

Both Almighty Sect and Kunlun Sect have

only one contender stay.

Wang Lu, you’re smart.

You should know the possibility.

Possibility

has nothing to do with the number of contenders.

A monkey from Mount Flowers and Fruits

defeats the pigheaded heavenly generals.

I’m afraid the monkey

is running into his Five Fingers Mountain today.

Let’s see.

Let’s go.

Zhu Qin.

What?

Can you be more careful?

You didn’t find out it was Mirror and Reflect

with the Breaking Eye?

What can you do then?

Who told you I didn’t find out?

I wouldn’t have been here if I didn’t find out.

Wen Bao, Liuli, let’s go.

I found it out.

Liuli!

You know I found out, right?

I really did find out.

And I didn’t follow them in.

You know I found out, right?

Filial piety, brotherhood, loyalty, fidelity, courtesy and honor.

These are the virtues

that have been passed down for centuries.

Is it the scholar

who proposed the virtues

who have set this level?

Only the people who possess these virtues

are qualified to be promoted.

Does that mean

you from Shengjing Sect who have no virtues

are going to be eliminated?

Mind your words.

I’m just speaking the truth.

If a man without a sense of loyalty

or shame like you

passes the game,

that would be

a terrible joke of the world.

You’re going to be tested with your virtues.

You’ll compete in the tests one after another.

Those who get more scores win.

Remember, fighting is forbidden.

The breaches will be eliminated.

What?

No fighting?

What’s the fun then?

I’m not playing the game. I’m out.

Liuli.

Honor the rules. No fighting.

How are we going to win them then?

Don't worry. I have my plans.

OK. I’m with you.

Wang Lu.

I need a favor.

You want to join hands?

Yes.

They from Shengjing Sect have no shame.

I’m afraid we from three sects have to join hands.

No problem.

But like the rest of them,

you forget about your wisdom,

save the questions,

and listen to my command.

OK. I’ll listen to you.

I think you’d better give up.

You're actually competitors.

What’s the point of joining hands?

Filial piety is the foundation of all virtues.

Let’s start with the Filial piety.

If you consider yourselves parents-loving,

follow me in and have a look.

Let’s go.

Let’s go.

Gambling?

Children? Parents?

What are these?

This game is about piety. Here are the rules.

I.

A player can pick a Parents Tile

and designate someone to bear a Children Tile.

II.

The Parents Tile carriers

have to raise their designated

Children Tile carriers,

which means they have to give a certain amount of

magic stones to the Children Tile Bearers.

III. The Children Tile Bearers

need to give double the amount to the Parents.

This process is regarded as showing piety.

IV. Those who are regarded piety

can pass the game

and claim the set scores.

No scores for those who fail.

Magic stones for pass, right?

The rich ones pass.

Idiot!

I’m not finished yet.

Don’t interrupt me.

First,

one Parents Tile matches one Children Tile only.

No one could have more matches.

Second,

once you choose a tile, your identity is final.

No one can change it.

Third,

one can only have one tile.

Fourth, you have one chance to raise or show piety.

If one side refuses to raise or show piety,

it’s regarded as quiting the game.

Fifth. The act of raise or piety is not reversible.

The magic stones given out can’t be retrieved.

Sixth. Anyone who breaks the rules

will be disqualified for the following games.

Wang Lu.

What does that man want to tell us

with all his mumblings?

He just wants to tell us

this frigging game is lame.

Half of the players won’t be able

to get a single score.

Why?

Because

only those showing piety can be promoted.

That means the children.

If that’s so,

the ones with Parents Tile fail in this game.

Yes.

But at least, those with Parents Tiles

can get double the amount of magic stones.

So the money or the scores,

it’s your choice.

Now I see.

It still means

magic stones for pass, right?

Yeah. You’re right.

If I were your dad,

I’d give you 100 million magic stones,

you’d have to give me 200 million.

That’s fast and easy money to make.

I’d make 100 million.

It’s worth even if I lose.

Yes.

Did you just take advantage of me?

No.

How could I?

If you don’t have 200 million,

just show your piety

and admit that you lose.

I think it’s you who don’t have it.

The Non-phase Peak is known

for your poor financial standing.

Why don’t you just pick the Parents Tiles

and admit you lose?

You can buy liquor for your master with the money.

Hai.

I wonder if it’s Shengjing Sect you enter

or a cross talk troupe.

You’re so skillful with words now.

Ignore him.

Let’s focus on the strategy.

Looks like we have a trouble.

Are you worried

if two fall in a match,

only half the people can pass the game.

There are eight of us.

So at least one of us have to quit.

Yes.

I can quit the scores in this round.

What?

Even if I quit,

Wang Lu and his team

won’t stay idle.

We can hardly tell how many Children Tiles

we can get in the end.

Though fighting is banned,

there can be other ways to win.

Don’t worry.

I know a way to make them choose Parents Tiles.

Wang Lu, any idea yet?

What ideas?

Just get as many Children Tiles as possible.

That goes without saying.

It’s quite obvious, isn’t it?

But Children Tiles carriers

are designated by Parents Tile carriers.

How can we do that?

Since we can’t pick the Children Tiles directly,

our goal is to make them pick Parents Tiles.

It’s one on one match.

They don’t have other choices.

In the end, they can only designate us.

Wen Bao.

What are they talking about?

I don't know, either.

It’s supposed to be a test.

Now it has become gambling.

Yes.

Filial piety? It’s hell of a game.

In this round,

we’re counting on Zhu Qin.

Why looking at me?

This is Yin-Yang Treasure Chest?

What does that mean?

Wang, you’re a smart man.

Stop pretending.

This chest has access to Shengjing Sect’s vault,

where billions of magic stones are stored.

And not just magic stones.

Like you interpreted it.

If we from Shengjing Sect

get the Parents Tiles

and give you 100 million,

you’ll have to give us 200 million.

Do you have the money

to finish the game?

So,

why don’t you give up the Children Tiles?

At least you make a fortune.

That’s cheating.

That’s reasonable allocation based on power.

Zhan,

don’t make it harsh.

OK.

How about this?

You give up the Children Tiles.

I’ll give you 100 million.

Reasonable allocation based on power.

I almost forgot you, Zhu Qin.

If it wasn’t you,

we’d lose it on the fortune match.

Give him 100 more million.

I don’t have that much.

I don’t. You know?

Wang, you mean

there’s no deal.

Of course not.

Since we can’t

have a winner on fortune match,

well,

why don’t you have a fight?

The winner decides it.

You think I’m stupid?

It’s clear on the rules.

The breaches will be eliminated.

You think I’m stupid?

You remembered?

Since you’re clear about it,

let’s try to make it fair and just.

It’s simple.

We pick 14 tiles

from the Children and Parents,

7 tiles each.

These tiles match to the fourteen of us.

We have six players on our side,

and you have eight.

One side shuffles the tiles and the other draws.

The one draws first picks seven tiles

and leaves the rest for the other.

What do you say?

OK.

We agree.

Who shuffles and who draws?

Since you make the proposal,

it’s your call.

But I have one request

that everyone

has to make the Heart Swear

to obey the rules.

Those who get the Parents Tiles

have to be cooperative till the end of the game.

No problem.

You shuffle the tiles then.

We draw.

OK.

Fourteen tiles.

Please check it.

Checked. Get started.

I have Breaking Eye

which allows me to see what the tiles are.

Du Songzi, how are you going to defeat us?

Children.

Parents.

Children.

Parents.

Parents.

Children.

How could it be possible?

Children. Parents.

Children. Parents.

Parents. Parents. Parents.

Parents. Parents.

Parents.

Dad and mom. Dad and mom.

Hell of a way to cheat!

I need to learn from you.

As you just saw,

Hai Yunfan destroyed the rest tiles.

There’s no way he can cheat.

Besides, all of them

have made the Swear.

Du Songzi is safe and sound.

That means his conscience is clean.

Master Wu, just admit your failure.

Yes.

What’s the magic?

If it’s some normal tricks,

he’ll be punished by the Swear.

So they are all real?

If I’m right,

this is the Duplication Magic that’s been lost.

The duplications are identical to the genuine.

If he continues,

when will this round end?

Though there are lots of tiles,

most are duplicated from the original

fourteen tiles.

Technically,

as long as the original tiles are drawn,

the duplications will disappear.

That’s right.

But to draw seven original tiles

from so many duplications?

Only pure luck

can make it happen.

Dad, mom.

Mom.

Zhu Qin.

Zhu Qin.

I thought Zhu Qin’s Breaking Eye

can be a help.

Never expected that Du Songzi

had a backup plan.

My mistake.

I...I remember.

Those round tiles

are just like the pancakes Master Ao brought me.

Liuli, look where you are.

Forget about the pancakes.

Liuli.

Are the pancakes you mentioned

Lord’s Pancakes?

I remember Master Ao told me

the pancakes

are blessed and made by lords.

He told me the Lord fed 5,000 men

with merely 5 pancakes.

So amazing!

They just couldn’t eat the pancakes up.

But you ate them up, right?

What?

I have an idea.

All right.

Take your pick.

Liuli.

Your Sword Heart makes you see the genuine ones.

If you can pick all seven original

Children Tiles from them,

this is yours.

Corn!

Corn!

Corn!

Pick.

OK, I’ll do it.

Children.

What’s going on?

How does she know which one is Children Tile?

I forgot that Liuli’s Sword Heart

enables her to tell the fake.

Why didn’t you tell me earlier?

Five tiles already.

Corn.

Your trophy!

Great!

Now the six of us have five Children Tiles.

You’re going to lose.

You...

This is...

It’s not possible.

You...

This is...
