"Broken Fate" - Singers: Modern Brothers, LiuYuning

♫ Half moon, full moon sprinkle the frost to cover the eyes ♫

♫ Either the day lights up or turns dark, destiny is not self-determined ♫

♫ So are also ordinary people floating in the world ♫

♫ Endures the changes from the spring to the autumn ♫

♫ I think, I sigh, with the sound of the zither disappearing ♫

♫ You unsheathe, you dance, the sword severs affections ♫

♫ Standing face to face looking at each other speechless ♫

♫ When does the embracing become frustrating ♫

♫ Each side of the sky may be considered perfect ♫

♫ I hurt, I grieve, love is like smoke ♫

♫ You gaze, you're distant, saying you're sorry ♫

♫ Love is torn apart in hate ♫

♫ I hate you but I'm loved by you, I constantly debate with myself ♫

♫ It has become the longest pastime of my life ♫

[God of Lost Fantasy]

Prince Regent, that Mo Tianlin keeps hiding.

I sent my son, Ye Wuque, to visit many times.

He was rejected every time.

What an ungrateful fool.

The Mo Clan is proud of their strength.

Their behavior is so rude and unreasonable.

In the future, they will definitely hinder us.

Nowadays, within the Four Great Clans,

there's the Qin Clan that controls the Longxiang Guards.

That is a powerful army of many spiritual soldiers.

Both the Qin and Mo families

were always loyal to Emperor Yi.

Once they join hands,

they will become a great peril for us in the future.

The Qin Clan will definitely protect the crown prince.

How about we draw the Bai Clan to our side?

- The Bai Clan? - Yes.

Back then, the Bai Clan was demoted to Tianyong City and abandoned by all.

Then Bai Qingsong was unable to compete.

So now, if Your Highness shows them a little help,

then the Bai Clan will be deeply grateful to you.

And when the day comes, Your Highness

can easily

make use of the Bai Clan.

I like what you're saying.

[Episode 2]

You finally appeared.

What are you scared of? I only want

a few drops of your tears.

I won't kill you.

Moreover, do you know that these tears

can not only save your life,

but can also save the lives of others?

Such a good deal.

Do you agree or not?

- Master. - Ruo Huan, how is the student enrollment going?

Da Shan and Yu Fei are taking care of it.

This time, the Four Great Academies are enrolling students in Tianyong City. [Mo Shang, Lotus Academy Elder]

I don't know if any good talent will show up. [Ruo Huan, Eldest Disciple of Mo Shang]

Yes, Master.

- It's a demonic beast. - The sound is weird. Maybe it's hurting people.

- I'm going to have look. - There's still much to do in Tianyong City.

Return to the guest house with Da Shan and Yu Fei. I'll take care of it.

Yes, Master!

Hey!

How could I let it run away?

Qingcheng, why are you here?

Are you running away behind your father's back again?

I'm bored every day at home.

It's really too boring.

There are many demonic beasts around here. It's very dangerous. What if you have an accident?

How could I explain myself to your father?

That level of demonic beast,

how could it bother me?

Moreover, aren't you here?

Stop it. We mustn't stay here for too long.

Let's talk while walking.

Are you going to Tianyong City?

You're smart. If I wasn't going to Tianyong City looking for students,

how could I save you?

How could such a small fry like that demonic beast be a match for me?

I just didn't want to hurt it.

I'm afraid that this Great Yi Empire

will no longer be in peace. [Deity Yi - Headmaster of the Lotus Academy]

Aunt, what is this?

There's someone using the power of the stars through the Silver Poisonous Needle Technique to rush into the Ninth Heaven,

forcing the door open to obtain the Celestial Soul.

There are archives about this technique from 500 years ago,

but almost nobody succeeded.

It's not communicating with the Celestial Soul, but taking it.

Do you think it could be related to the Dark Night Tribe?

Ruo Huan. Da Shan. Yu Fei. Go and have a look.

Yes!

In your body

lies the immemorial Celestial Soul Stone.

Five hundred years ago, Deity Cang used it

to communicate with the Taurus constellation.

You must defeat this golden bull to obtain

approval of the Celestial Soul Stone.

Embrace your soul and eliminate external interferences.

Know your thoughts and rebuild the Celestial Soul of the Hammer of Heaven.

What's going on?

May I know who you are?

Don't worry.

I'm the guardian of Celestial Soul Stone.

Just call me Uncle Hei.

You must remember what I say.

What you saw today,

don't leak it out or tell anyone.

Otherwise, your life will be in danger. Remember this.

I will remember this.

This is the Celestial Soul Stone handed down from Deity Cang.

It has opened up your pulses.

Congratulations on connecting with the Celestial Soul of the Fifth Heaven.

The Celestial Soul Stone is very powerful.

You must not use it unreasonably.

This spiritual diagram

contains thousands of ancient Holy Patterns.

The person who can understand this,

its magical power,

can see the mystery that others cannot.

Take good care of this.

Find out how you can use this on your own.

Since the Celestial Soul Stone has acknowledged its owner,

my mission is complete.

Young man, misfortune and happiness depend on each other.

Rely on yourself.

Thank you very much.

Elder Yuan, you are suddenly going into retreat. What has happened?

Have you seen the astronomical phenomenon?

Could it be...

[Qin Manor]

Second Older Brother, stop pacing.

Three days. It has been three days.

The Four Great Academies' assessment is tomorrow.

Where did that bastard go?

Everyone, today is the recruitment of students for the Four Great Academies.

People with noble aspirations of Great Yi can take part in the assessment today.

If you pass the assessment, you can expect to enter the Four Great Academies for cultivation.

I heard Bai Qiuxue has connected with the Celestial Soul of the Third Heaven.

What an amazing talent!

This twelve-step jade inlaid stairway

is called the Almighty Platform.

It is used to test the selected one's innate abilities.

Steps one, two, and three are low-level.

Four, five, and six are mid-level.

Seven, eight, and nine are high-level.

Steps ten to twelve are for those with heavenly talents.

On the top of the stairs is the Buddhist Great Thunder Drum.

For the last 500 years, the number of those who could strike it

could be counted on your fingers.

The Four Great Academies admission starts now!

Now, Zhang Sanxing has stopped at the third step.

Li Shi has already stopped at the fourth step.

Now, Murong Feng has stopped at the seventh step.

Guan Yue has stopped at the seventh step.

Now, Ou Feng has stopped at the ninth step.

The ninth step? Only two people have made it to the ninth step.

This one is still so young, to be able to get that far is really not easy.

That's right.

Now, Bai Qiuxue

has stopped at the tenth step.

Great!

Qiuxue only has the Third Heaven Celestial Soul.

She still can't go that high.

If she firmly rushes on, I'm afraid it would be dangerous.

Junior Sister Qiuxue is highly qualified.

She's one in a million. Uncle, credits go to you.

- I'm so envious. - You're too kind.

Qiuxue's aptitude is far less than yours, Young Master Ye.

Eldest Brother said in his letter that he hoped to marry into the Ye Clan

and let the Ye Clan become our patron.

But this young man's mind is

too deep and calm.

- Good! - Great!

Great! Well done!

Good! Good job!

Didn't they all say she's a genius?

She just reached the tenth step and fell down.

Seems like Tianyong City is nothing extraordinary.

Everyone, my elder brother is not here.

I, Bai Guangcheng, will be the temporary leader of the Bai Clan.

Taking advantage of the Four Great Academies' admission assessment today,

I'm here to announce one thing.

As of today, the marriage contract between the Bai Clan and Qin Clan

is nullified.

What's going on?

How can this be?

My elder brother indeed promised Lord Qin

that Qiuxue would be married to your son, Qin Wentian.

But your son is inferior,

but considers himself pure and worthy.

My elder brother doesn't want to harm his own daughter,

so he has no choice but to do this.

Bai Guangcheng, the Bai Clan was forced out of the

capital to Tianyong City due to corruption.

At that time, why didn't your

Bai Clan say no to us?

Qin Chuan. Qin Chuan.

You took advantage of our Bai Clan's loss

and forced my elder brother to betroth Qiuxue to your son.

As everyone knows, your son was born with a Blind Pulse.

It was Qiuxue who tried her best to teach him all these years...

- Qiuxue tried to teach him. - What is he saying?

-...so that he can start culivating. - A man with a Blind Pulse.

It's your son's improper conduct.

How can you blame the Bai Clan of being unfaithful

and let us bear this perfidious infamy?

Bai Guangcheng!

Although Wentian is not talented,

I can't let your Bai Clan wrong him for nothing.

Today, I will let you see

if people of the Qin Clan are capable.

- Shang'er. - Shang'er, no.

It's just the Almighty Platform.

Our Qin Clan does not have just Qin Wentian as their descendant.

Shang'er!

Junior Brother!

You do have other descendants in the Qin Clan.

I admired you all.

Enough already!

You've gone too far!

You can insult me, but not the Qin Clan.

I don't think I've offended the Bai Clan.

Today, you have gone too far with your insults to the Qin Clan.

Even though I am not talented, I will give it a try.

Wentian, no.

Qin Wentian, since you are

an aspiring man,

please go ahead.

Wentian.

Don't force yourself. Don't go.

Foster Father, please allow me...

to try the Almighty Platform.

Qin Wentian, why are you here?

You are a man of Blind Pulse,

yet you want to try the Almighty Platform?

Qin Wentian has a Blind Pulse.

How can he reach step ten so easily?

This... How is this possible?

Qin Wentian is a man with a Blind Pulse.

How can he reach step eleven?

Man with a Blind Pulse. Go for it! Continue going.

I should figure out a way to help him.

Where is this?

Let's go.

What just happened? Who was that person?

Wentian... he...

Great! Good job!

Exactly, who was that Miss?

Wentian is amazing.

He brings honor to the Qin Clan.

Although he had a Blind Pulse, he worked extremely hard.

Now his pulses are open.

His efforts are rewarded.

It's just... that all his pulses opened so suddenly.

I say, Wentian is gifted.

Once opened, all are opened.

You! I think

it's your niece, Bai Quixue, who does not deserve Wentian at all.

You—

The Almighty Platform only detects aptitude.

It detects the aptitude

you are born to have.

Though Qin Wentian is on the terrace,

he still can't cultivate. He's still a good-for-nothing.

Master, is that so?

Not always.

Even my Celestial Soul Heavenly Eyes cannot see through this lad's natural talents and abilities.

Unless, he is related to the abnormal phenomena.

As I am on the terrace,

please apologize to the Qin Clan for your words just now.

You—

Uncle.

Fine.

Qin Wentian, since you can stand on the Almighty Platform,

are you able to sound the Buddhist Great Thunder Drum?

Wentian, you have no foundation in cultivation.

- If you try to sound the Buddhist Great Thunder Drum, it will kill you. - Yes, Wentian. You need to calm down.

With no cultivation, you can't sound the Buddhist Great Thunder Drum.

Wentian, in order to pound on the Buddhist Great Thunder Drum,

one must have reached a high level of cultivation so that he can suppress it

or else, you will easily face its power backlash.

Therefore, you should not take this risk.

You've already proven yourself. Come down now.

That's right, Wentian. Don't you value your life?

Wentian!

Foster Father, don't worry.

Foster Father.

Wentian, are you all right?

Foster Father, relax, I'm fine.

You're awesome. You brought honor to our clan.

Qin Wentian.

You actually cultivated behind my back.

You are too scheming.

Dear elders, I've never met my birth parents.

Fortunately, my foster father adopted me and regards me as his biological son.

The Qin Clan has adopted a son of filial piety for future generations.

So, naturally, I observe filial piety.

From today onwards, I swear

anyone who hurts the Qin Clan

is my mortal enemy.

Good. Well done, Wentian.

You are a real man of the Qin Clan.

All the candidates who reached step six,

please come front and center.

All those who passed the assessment are here.

Elders of the academies, you can recruit students

according to your academy's decree.

Qin Wentian, join the Holy Wind Academy.

I can promise you to double the condition of being superior to other disciples.

The Seven Stars Academy offers the same.

You have your choice of learning anything you want.

Qin Wentian, the Royal Academy

welcomes you, too.

Lotus Academy will never make any promises.

The Lotus Academy is the best promise.

Qin Wentian, we welcome you to join us.

I want to thank the Seven Stars Academy, Holy Wind Academy,

and the Royal Academy for your kindness.

Our ties are not strong yet. I want to choose the Lotus Academy.

I believe those two boys are good as well.

Elder Mo Shang, what do you think?

Elder Jiang, if you want them, I agree.

Ou Feng and Murong Feng,

do you want to join the Lotus Academy?

Thank you, Elder Jiang. I'm willing.

I also am willing.

Master, this one is also gifted, too. Why don't you choose her?

The Almighty Platforms not only detects aptitude but also virtue.

How can we enroll someone with bad virtue?

The selection of the academies is over.

Everyone, in one month,

we will hold a test among

the admitted students.

It will be carried out in the Dark Forest.

Please pay attention.

This will be an elimination test.

Only after passing this test

can you then become an official student

of the selected academy.

Qiuxue,

don't worry. I will ask for you.

Brother Bai.

Though the Lotus Academy has been established for hundreds of years with many talented disciples,

the Royal Academy was built by the Royal family

and is the great assistance to the imperial family,

guarding the land of the Great Yi Empire for the imperial court.

Why not let your niece join the Royal Academy?

Elder Tang, you are right.

Qiuxue, quickly greet your master.

- Greetings to Master. - Let's skip the formality.

Congratulations to Junior Sister in joining the Royal Academy.

We are brothers and sisters from now on.

- Senior Brother, please take care of me. - Of course.

Thank you.

Uncle, don't worry. The Ye and Bai Clans are friends.

Of course, I should take care of Qiuxue.

- Qingcheng. - Hey!

Qingcheng, where did you go?

This... Why is there so much blood on your clothes?

I just went out for a walk.

Maybe I got it accidentally.

It's nothing.

Aunt, I want to join the Lotus Academy.

You know I'm not joking. I'm serious.

Promise me.

But your father...

We can act first and report afterward.

As long as you become my master, it's no use if he doesn't agree.

This... This, I can't help you with.

Go home and ask him yourself.

You know my father's temper.

All right. You win.

I will talk with your father.

Anyway, I'm at the Lotus Academy.

You won't be in any type of danger, right?

Okay. Why don't you go home first?

I will talk to your father. Go.

- Remember to talk to my father. - Yes, I will remember.

- Deal. - Deal. Okay. Okay.

- I'm leaving. - Okay. Be careful.

Wentian...

Today, I have a question. Tell me the truth.

Are all of your pulses open now?

Yes. I'm not a person with a Blind Pulse.

Wentian, you were born with a Blind Pulse.

I've found many masters to diagnose you,

but they couldn't do anything.

In the past couple of days,

what happened?

On that day, after coming out of the Bai Clan manor,

I was hunted.

Hunted?

After that, I fell down a cliff.

- And then... - Then what?

Foster Father, I have promised an elder

not to tell anyone about it.

Wentian, since you have an agreement with others,

then you should abide by the agreement.

I trust you.

Take care of this.

Thank you for understanding, Foster Father.

Foster Father, who do you think wanted to hunt me?

Bai Guangcheng is usually well-behaved in front of our clan.

Why did he suddenly end the engagement?

Is the court going against our Qin Clan?

And did he know this in advance?

Our clan has always been loyal, guarding the border for the court.

Why did the court act against us?

This... I'm not certain.

Wentian, don't worry about this.

I will take care of it.

Now that you have been accepted into the Lotus Academy, get ready for it.

After arriving at the Lotus Academy, you must concentrate on cultivation.

Don't be lazy. Don't violate our clan's rules.

Foster Father, believe in me. I will cherish this opportunity.

I will never do anything to insult the Qin Clan.

What's wrong? Still thinking about Qin Wentian?

Uncle.

I was thinking...

Father knew that Wentian was born with a Blind Pulse.

Since the engagement was already made, why break it without reason now?

Nowadays, Emperor Yi has been in a coma

and the prince regent is in control.

The Qin Clan is in Tianyong City.

Prince Regent is relatively alienated from the Qin Clan

and doesn't believe in them at all.

Qiuxue, you don't know yet,

but your father is going to

be transferred to the Imperial City to serve as an official.

Really?

Your father was banished to Tianyong City for years.

Now he is being used by Prince Regent

and has been transferred to the Imperial City to hold an important position.

Then we won't be bullied in Tianyong City

by the Qin Clan anymore.

After we move to the Imperial City, Prince Regent

and the Ye Clan will be our patrons.

In the future, the Bai Clan will have great power

in the capital city.

Do you now understand why we did this?

So you must break all contact with Qin Wentian immediately.

- But... - Okay. Enough already.

Remember how arrogant he was on the Almighty Platform?

Did he respect you or the Bai Clan at all?

Uncle, why don't you ask yourself?

You said in front of so many people that Older Brother Wentian was a good-for-nothing

and humiliated the Qin Clan.

If I were him, I would be angry with you, too.

And you,

it's all because of the help of Older Brother Wentian that you could connect with the Celestial Soul.

Father and Second Uncle asked to break the engagement, but you said nothing.

You are ungrateful to do this.

Shut up!

- You are too young to understand our care and thought. - Enough!

Stop talking! I want to be alone.

You... You are always like this.

I don't care for you anymore.

You...
