FILIAL PIETY

CHILD

Child Token.

What's going on?

How can she find the Child Token so easily?

I forgot her Transparent Sword and Heart can distinguish what is real or fake.

You should have said it earlier.

You...

How...

How is this possible?

You...

Lingjian Sect is indeed good at hiding talents.

You saw through my Xiyi Cloning Technique so quickly.

However...

You celebrated too early.

PARENT, CHILD

CHILD, PARENT

-Why... -Why...

Why did it all change?

My master taught me one principle.

You need to hold back a trick or two in order to accomplish something.

It's called to take no risk.

I just pulled a trick to the foundation

of the cloning technique.

You placed a coating

while shuffling the tokens?

That's right.

But you found out too late.

CHILD, PARENT

PARENT, CHILD

What?

Shengjing Sect somehow can be barely considered

a righteous sect at least.

How can you use

this kind of coating technique

to trick a girl who has the mind of a six-year-old?

Don't you feel embarrassed?

"Competition first, friendship second."

Fifth Elder, you said that yourself.

If I had known that

the Gateway of Sentient Beings is a gambling house,

I wouldn't have agreed for you to use it in this competition.

Regardless if it's gambling or cultivation,

we're using our intelligence to compete and we're relying on our wisdom.

Can you say that the wisdom in gambling

is more lowly and inferior

compared to the wisdom in cultivation?

You're just being argumentative.

Hey.

Can you stop quarreling?

Be like General Hai.

He's watching the competition silently.

You're so noisy.

My head is aching because of all of you.

My arm is also sore.

His disciples are all disqualified.

He can't join the conversation even if he wants to.

Do you want me to destroy that magic tool with one strike

so that your disciples are disqualified as well?

Do it.

How despicable.

You're even worse than me.

This is the Door of Filial Piety.

Not the Door of Integrity or Door of Humility.

Here,

the most important thing is filial piety.

Among the six of you,

there are only two Child Tokens.

Have you thought about which four will be sacrificed?

Du Songzi is so bad.

He's trying to create conflict among us.

Regardless if I choose fellow disciples or others,

it would create division among my teammates.

Even if we're allies,

people flee separately in the face of disasters.

There are only two Child Tokens.

Based on Wang Lu's personality, he won't give either of them away.

I didn't contribute much to the challenge earlier,

I might be sacrificed.

There are only two tokens left.

Wang Lu would either give it to Wen Bao or Liuli Xian.

He wouldn't give it to me.

I need to figure out a way for myself.

Wang Lu, decide quickly.

I'll listen to you.

This is so delicious. Is there more?

Wang Lu.

You've been staring at me for so long.

Have you decided or not?

We don't need to discuss, they'll listen to me.

Let's start.

The loser accepts his defeat.

You can decide whom to give this extra Parent Token.

As for the other two Parent Tokens,

PARENT

Wen Bao and Zhu Qin.

These are yours.

Never mind that you sacrificed me.

You even gave up Wen Bao.

What a good friend.

You're good, Wang Lu.

You sacrificed your fellow disciples for the sake of others.

You're so impartial.

Wang Lu, what if--

You said you'll listen to me.

It's too late to regret now.

Start the distribution.

Okay.

It's done.

Start doing your filial duty.

Come, Zhu Qin. Wen Bao.

Take out all your money.

Let your descendants fulfill filial duty to you.

Your money will double.

So Wang Lu was prepared.

He needs to sacrifice four people anyway.

So he used my money to get money from them.

But I'll still be out.

Look carefully.

ONE MILLION SPIRIT STONES

From Wanxian Alliance Commercial Center,

a cheque for one million spirit stones.

One million.

Plus ten million.

TEN MILLION SPIRIT STONES

Is your family that wealthy?

I'm the son of the imperial advisor.

I'm the seventh royal son of the Great Ming.

But you have six brothers before you. I'm the only son.

That makes sense.

Are you taking the opportunity to rob us?

Who told your head disciple to show off?

I'm giving him the opportunity.

Wang Lu.

Hai Yunfan.

It's fine.

It's not a problem

if money can solve it.

Ten million.

One million.

Don't I just need to double it?

What's the problem?

Du Songzi, Wangyue Luanyu,

Jiang Liu, Hai Yunfan, and Fang Qiang

have completed the filial piety challenge.

Is that an affirmative?

At this point,

we will surely win, right?

-Yes. -Yes.

Why are you smiling?

Du Songzi, Hai Yunfan,

Wangyue Luanyu, Jiang Liu, Fang Qiang.

You're all out.

What...

What's going on?

They should be the ones who are out.

How can it be us?

Shouldn't you eliminate the Parent Tokens?

They have the Child Tokens.

Why are they out?

Xiaoyueyue.

Is your magic tool like me?

Old and confused.

That's impossible.

The Gateway of Sentient Beings can't be wrong.

Wang Lu must have pulled a trick again.

He cheated. He must have cheated.

Xiaoyueyue.

When your disciple cheated, it's a legitimate win and we deserve to lose.

When my disciple is winning, you're trying to frame him.

Do you have a problem?

Don't we have the Inner Demon Oath?

Tell me then.

Why are the previously set rules

all messed up when it comes to him?

Because he's handsome.

Master Shuiyue, this is just the first round and you can't afford to lose?

That's right.

Look, General Hai even lost all his capital.

Do you want to bet more?

You're the ones who should be out.

Why?

Why did they lose?

Are you shocked? Are you surprised?

You're really stupid.

This round seems complicated,

but it's actually very basic amidst the complications.

All the rules must fulfill one condition.

What condition?

There are three unfilial acts, having no children is the greatest.

What do you mean?

Since it's the Door of Filial Piety,

you need to abide by the rule of filial piety.

You're holding Child Tokens.

You have parents, but no children.

As they say, having no children is the most unfilial thing.

Shouldn't those who are unfilial be out?

Wang Lu.

Why do I still not understand?

You don't have to understand.

The two key points in the rules

are the number of children and parents.

Moreover, everyone can only have

one token.

So the token and the identity are two separate concepts.

Everyone can have two identities.

A child and a parent.

Could it be that the tokens can have two sides?

Xiaohai.

Based on your IQ,

you must be with them.

Let me teach you

how to pass this challenge perfectly.

PARENT

CHILD

Theoretically,

in this game, as long as you respect your parents, love your children,

and become a part of the family, you can pass.

That's why no matter how many challengers there are,

even if there are thousands,

you just need to sacrifice the head and the tail.

Then the rest

can all advance.

Then...

So you tricked us earlier?

I did.

Are you stupid or what?

Based on your IQ,

shouldn't you lose?

The loser accepts his defeat.

Wen Bao and Zhu Qin.

You're parents.

You can pass if you have a child.

But the candidates for the children are already set.

So I can only choose one of you

to join the family chain.

Well...

My Spell-breaking Eyes weren't of use.

Give the chance to Wen Bao.

I... I'm out.

Don't worry.

I'll surely let you pass the next challenge perfectly.

Liuli Xian, Zhou Mumu, Zhan Ziye, Wen Bao

have completed the filial piety process. Is that an affirmative?

-Yes. -Yes.

Congratulations to Liuli Xian, Zhou Mumu,

Zhan Ziye, Wen Bao for passing this challenge.

Everyone gets ten points.

It seems like I'll get the last laugh.

Master Shuiyue, admit your defeat.

Yes.

Your disciple, Wang Lu is surprising indeed.

Congratulations.

The first challenge is done.

Lingjian Sect's Liuli Xian and Wen Bao,

Kunlun Sect's Zhou Mumu,

and Wanfa Sect's Zhan Ziye, each gets ten points.

Lingjian Sect's Wang Lu and Zhu Qin

as well as all the disciples of Shengjing Sect gets zero points.

Zero points.

Watch out, everyone!

What's going on?

Shuiyue.

Did you do this?

Is it really you, Xiaoyueyue?

Do you have to do this just for the Fabulous Five Conference?

Obviously.

-That's not my goal. -Then what do you want?

Look at your hands.

Does it seem familiar?

Black Stream?

Unexpected, right?

I exerted all efforts to find it.

Heaven helps those who help themselves.

I finally found a wandering one.

You'll be like Lord Tianlun soon.

You'll become a puppet and obey me.

Dream on.

Even if I become a ghost,

I won't become your puppet.

Fine, show me and die.

There's no use. Stop struggling.

I set up the Zhoutian Puppet Formation in the Gateway of Sentient Beings.

Today, none of you will be able to escape from my clutches.

You despicable man.

Why don't you just kill us?

Kill you?

If I kill you,

I'll be the greatest sinner in the Wanxian Alliance.

But if you all obey me,

I'll be the greatest leader of the five major sects.

You...

By the way, I forgot to tell you.

The Zhoutian Puppet Formation

is set up in the Hall of Virtue.

The formation gains more power for every level that is passed.

It will be completed as long as someone passes all challenges.

By then, you will lose all control of your mind

and obey me.

In the Fabulous Five Conference,

regardless of who wins,

Shengjing Sect will be the biggest winner.

You bastard.

FRATERNITY

DOOR OF FRATERNITY

Hai Yunfan.

Do you know what fraternity means?

A harmonious relationship between brothers and friends.

I thought you didn't know.

Hey.

If you have time for nonsense,

just listen to the rules carefully.

Listen? You can't understand them anyway.

You...

Internal disunity dissolves at the threat of external invasion.

Welcome to the world of fraternity.

These are the rules.

First, two people in one team will become siblings.

Second, everyone gets 100 chips

to be used for external betting and internal betting.

You can decide the ratio freely.

Third, the team wins if their total chips after external betting

meets or exceed 100.

Their prize would be double the amount of total chips they have.

If it doesn't exceed 100 chips, they fail.

Both of them would be out.

Fourth, after succeeding in external betting,

the winner would be decided after internal betting.

The one who has more chips wins.

The winner gets his opponent's chips as his prize.

If it's a draw, they'll split the chips.

Fifth, upon final calculation,

those who have 200 chips and above are considered passing the challenge.

Wang Lu, what does it mean?

It's very simple.

For example, you and I are brothers.

In closed doors, we strangle each other and I bully you.

But in the face of despicable people

like Hai Yunfan,

we'll team up and fight him together.

However, after we defeat him,

we still need to decide who the winner is among us, understand?

By the way, I need to add a few things.

First, the virtual bets can't, in any shape or form,

be cloned, destroyed, or multiplied.

Second, the participants would distribute their bets

according to their wishes.

They can't, in any way of form, decide for others.

Third, there's a time limit after the teams are assigned.

If they haven't come up with a strategy after the time's up, they're disqualified.

Wang Lu, I still don't get it.

What do the rules have to do with a harmonious relationship

between brothers and friends?

Of course it has nothing to do with it, silly.

These tricky rules

are just a Prisoner's Dilemma.

What's a Prisoner's Dilemma?

I'll kill you if you ask more questions.

Actually, think about it. The Eight Virtues challenge

is just a ploy.

Regardless if we pass or not,

it doesn't seem to match with one's character.

Otherwise, why would a rascal like me win?

Good thing you know.

Of course.

If I'm not being rascals, should I be unscrupulous like you?

Wen Bao, let's discuss how we can totally defeat them.

-That's what we should do. -Wen Bao.

-I'll tell everyone my idea. -Corn.

Eat it later.

Everyone, I've already discussed with Mumu.

There are only two possibilities to pass based on the rules.

First, the two siblings will use their 100 chips for external betting.

If they win, they can get 400 chips.

And they can call it a draw on internal betting with 0 against 0.

Then, they will split the 400 chips.

Get 200 chips each and pass.

But if I'm sure that the other one will place 100 chips in external betting

and I leave one chip for internal betting,

I'll win with 1 against 0 and get 199 chips as my prize.

And the other one will have nothing.

That's why you can only use this method with teammates that you trust.

If you're in a team with the opponent,

that will be hard to say.

What is the other way?

Divide the chips into two.

Use them for external betting and then internal betting.

If your chips for internal betting are more than your opponent's,

you can get the double amount of chips as your prize.

But there's an assumption.

You both need to bet at least 50 chips

to ensure that chips from external betting exceed 100 in order to win.

If both sides won't give in

and each takes 50 chips for external and internal betting,

they will get a total of 200 chips.

When they split it and each gets 100, won't they be eliminated then?

And you must remember.

If the teams are created randomly,

then Shengjing Sect will have an advance based on numbers.

What do you have in mind, Wang Lu?

Come closer.

Wang Lu.

Is your idea going to work?

Believe it or not.

FRATERNITY

Wang Lu.

I wasn't focused on the last challenge.

I'll surely win against you this time.

Let's see.

Are you all ready?

We're ready.

We're ready.

It's you?

Enemies are bound to meet on a narrow road.

You don't need to fish for information from me.

I won't believe a word you say.

How about this?

Right in front of you,

I'll write down my chips.

Then, you decide how to divide it.

So you won't feel that I'm taking advantage of you.

EXTERNAL

INTERNAL, 100

I'm done.

Are you crazy?

Don't forget.

We don't have any chips for external betting.

I'm relying on you.

Do you think I'm stupid?

If I use up my 100 chips for external betting,

then you'll use 100 against 0 to humiliate me in internal betting.

And you'll use me to win and double your chips as the prize.

Wang Lu, you're trying to trick me.

All right then.

Don't write yours down.

For external betting,

if we don't get 100, we'll both be out anyway.

That way, you won't be too humiliated when you lose.

Wang Lu.

You're forcing me to lose with you.

Who says so?

I originally thought you'll consider our friendship

and let me win for once.

Forget it!

There's not much time left.

Think about it carefully.

I'll go ahead.

Affirmative.

Wang Lu.

You're such a big bully!

FRATERNITY

Lingjian Sect's Wang Lu and Shengjing Sect's Hai Yunfan,

you're out.

Our friendship is so shallow.

I originally thought you'll consider our friendship

and let me win for once.

I didn't think you'd be more ruthless than I am.

Dream on.

Shengjing Sect's Du Songzi and Jiang Liu, you've passed.

Wang Lu.

If you have time to argue,

you should be concerned

about how bad your teammates lost.

Lingjian Sect's Liuli Xian, Zhu Qin, and Wen Bao,

Wanfa Sect's Zhan Ziye,

Kunlun Sect's Zhou Mumu,

you've all passed.

What's happening?

What about my fellow disciples?

Shengjing Sect's Wangyue Luanyu, Xu Peng,

Xiao Cun, Li Jiu, Fang Qiang,

you're all out.

Well...

It's you again, right?

What exactly did you do to them?

-Guess it. -Guess it.

You're such a big bully!

Remember.

The rules are always traps.

Use your brain to find the key to overcome the challenge.

Instead of thinking how much your opponent's chips are,

take the initiative in your own hands.

What should we do then?

When your opponent shows up, make a judgment call.

If their martial arts skills are below yours,

hit them and make them faint.

After the time is up, they would be eliminated.

At that time, use his 100 chips on external betting.

And pass the challenge.

What if their martial arts skills are better?

That's even easier.

Ambush them instead of fighting them head-on.

Do whatever you can.

As long as you can beat your opponent within one style,

that's fine.

Wang Lu.

Is your idea going to work?

What?

I said, is your idea going to work?

I'll kill you if you ask again.

I hit him with a bat, it's so much fun!

Good thing you helped us.

Fighting is so much fun.

I haven't had enough.

-Thanks, Wang Lu. -Thanks, Wang Lu.

That's impossible.

The rules clearly stated it.

Fighting is not allowed.

Violators will be out.

You've all gotten into fights.

How can you pass?

Xiaohai.

I think that after staying in Shengjing Sect for so long,

is your IQ sharply decreasing?

One hit the other and made him faint. Is that considered fighting?

It's just an ambush.

Then why didn't you hit me?

Could it be that you...

Could it be what?

That I still have feelings for you?

You think too much.

If I didn't take the Inner Demon Oath, I would have killed you.

Will I wait until you walk out?

I don't want to talk to you.

Let's go.

The second challenge is over.

Liuli Xian, Zhan Ziye,

Zhou Mumu, and Wen Bao each have 20 points.

Zhu Qin, Du Songzi, and Jian Liu each has ten points.

The rest have zero points.

The result of this competition is becoming more and more unpredictable.

I can't guess which of your beloved disciples

will personally send you on your way.

By the way, Fifth Elder.

Don't you love to gamble?

Do you want to make a bet?

Sure.

You think I'm scared of you?

Who do you think will win?

Of course, it's Wang Lu.

Based on his intelligence,

he'll surely win first prize in the Fabulous Five Conference.

You're so optimistic.

I'm going to be a puppet anyway.

While I'm still conscious,

I need to win over you.

Stop.

General, you can really reign it in indeed.

Fifth Elder.

You're too rash.

Listen carefully, everyone.

If you don't want the soul of your disciples to dissipate,

don't do anything rash.

The Gateway of Sentient Beings is relying on our spiritual powers for its operation.

If one of us leaves,

it would destroy its balance.

All your beloved disciples will die.

You despicable man.

You won't even let your own disciples survive.

As long as the formation is completed

and you become my puppets,

I promise I'll treat your current and future disciples nicely.

LOYALTY

This challenge is interesting.

There's no tokens or chips.

Loyalty is a form of religion.

Absolute loyalty can withstand any form of trial.

Questioning is a type of attitude.

Deep questioning can get rid of hypocrisy and cleanse one's loyalty.

Welcome to the Door of Loyalty.

These are the rules.

First, declare someone you'll be loyal to.

You can only declare once.

You can't change it anymore.

Second, question the loyalty of others.

You can only question a person once.

Third, once the loyalty is successfully questioned, it would be proven fake.

Then you'll be disqualified.

Fourth, if your loyalty is maintained and not proven fake

and you successfully questioned one participant's loyalty,

then you'll pass the challenge.

Are they really testing our virtue in this challenge?

It's possible.

Compared to bogus challenges like filial piety and fraternity,

this challenge seems more legit.

It's just that...

-How do we implement the questioning? -Shouldn't we just provide arguments?

Like a surprise attack in a debate.

Who cares?

How do we approach this challenge? Let's just try it.

I'll go first.

Please state who you are loyal to.

I declare

my loyalty to the Shengjing Sect.

You're in such a rush to die, are you a cannon fodder?

If you don't know how to do a surprise attack, step aside.

I have no time for you.

If your sect has quarrels and internal strife,

which side will you be on?

Shengjing Sect will never have internal strife.

Is that so?

Why do I hear that disasters

always occur in your sect when it's time to choose a leader?

730 years ago,

when Master Shoushan was about to become the leader,

he suddenly died with an unidentified cause of death.

280 years ago,

Master Hetu became the leader

and Master Wanling, who voluntarily relinquished his position,

disappeared mysteriously. Why is that?

You...

I don't really know about the things you said.

You're the sect's head disciple.

An outsider like me knows your sect's history more than you.

-No. -Why are you denying it?

You know what I'm talking about.

Yet you boldly stated that you don't have internal strifes.

What is loyalty?

Loyalty is a form of religion.

You know it's not perfect,

but you still passionately love it and stay loyal to it.

Since you can't directly face your dark past,

how can you declare loyalty to it?

Go and rest.

Lingjian Sect's Wang Lu is successful in his questioning.

Shengjing Sect's Du Songzi failed in his loyalty.

He's out.

Fifth Elder.

I'm starting to like your disciple more and more.

Based on his out-of-the-box thinking that's unique compared to others,

he should be able to pass the challenge quickly, right?

What a shame.

He would never expect

that his so-called intelligence

will personally make his master a puppet.

Watch and learn, cannon fodder.

I'll show you what loyalty is.

LOYALTY

I'll question you then.

I, Wang Lu, am loyal to...

-What did he say? -Yes, what did he say?

Well...

Well...

What is it?

This...

is just a code.

It's a very mysterious existence.

It can't be visually observed by people in any means.

Its real name also can't be mentioned in any way.

That's why I'm loyal to it.

You're all welcome to question me.

Even if we really want to question him,

what can we ask?

Based on what he said, it seems unimaginable

and unassailable too.

How detestable.

He tricked Hai Yunfan again.

How can you do that?

You can't even...

state it clearly.

How can you be loyal to this...

I have no comments.

Well...

If you keep doing that,

how can I question you?

I don't think the rules stated that the one being questioned need to answer.

I choose not to comment.

Well...

Well...

You're obviously just being argumentative.

This guy is the best in defense in this realm indeed.

Not only is his Wuxiang Bones incredible,

his bullshitting power is unbeatable.

I have an idea.

LOYALTY

I, Hai Yunfan, declare my loyalty

to Meme.

Meme

is just a code.

It's a very mysterious existence.

It can't be visually observed by people in any means.

Its real name also can't be mentioned in any way.

And I, Hai Yunfan, am loyal to it.

Xiaohai.

You're just imitating me.

You'll do anything just to win.

I know it, Wang Lu.

You have a way to question what you said earlier.

And once you do,

I can also do the same to you.

I, Hai Yunfan, very much welcome you to question me.

Look what this competition has turned you into.

LOYALTY

LOYALTY

I, Liuli Xian, am loyal to Yumyumyum.

Yumyumyum

is just a code.

It's a very mysterious existence.

I, Wen Bao, declare my loyalty

to Dududu.

Dududu is just a code.

It's a very mysterious existence.

I, Zhu Qin,

declare my loyalty to Piupiu.

Piupiu is a very mysterious existence.

It has no real meaning.

I, Zhan Ziye,

declare my loyalty to Hehe.

Hehe is just a code.

It's a very mysterious existence.

I, Zhou Mumu,

declare my loyalty to Nene.

Nene is just a code.

It's a very mysterious existence.

Wang Lu.

You may have discredited my fidelity,

but there are seven of us in Shengjing Sect.

In this challenge,

I'll surely win.

Is that so?

LOYALTY

What I said earlier,

the thing that cannot be visually observed

doesn't exist.

Therefore, my loyalty

is a lie.

I question my own loyalty.
