"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 also are 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 ♫

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

♫ Standing face to face looking at each other speechless ♫

♫ 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]

[Yi Wuwei, Crown Prince of Yi Empire]

Royal Father, lately I've

been imprisoned in the palace by Yi Heng.

Yi Heng has seized power.

The palace is not a place where I can stay for long.

Today, I snuck in here

just to tell Royal Father that I've already decided to respect your decree

and escape the palace and go to the Lotus Academy.

I must concentrate on cultivating and find a way to cure you.

Lord of Victory and Prince Regent have already been waiting a while for you.

Please.

Follow him!

Follow him!

[Imperial City]

[Episode 3]

Nuo Lan!

Miss! Miss you're back.

I just dreamed about you. Why are there so many bloodstains on you?

Why are you so distracted?

I'll go get things ready for you to take a bath.

Don't let my father and grandfather know, understand?

- Understood. - Go, hurry!

I almost forgot.

It actually sprouted.

Could it be the blood?

It's him.

[Galaxy Guild]

[Feng Ping - Blacksmith]

Brother Qin.

Brother Qin, I did not expect to see you here at the Galaxy Guild.

- You are? - I am Feng Ping, a blacksmith in the Galaxy Guild.

- So you are Senior Feng Ping. - Now that your pulse has been cleared, did you come to choose a magical weapon?

That's correct. However, I have never used a magical weapon before.

Could you take me to have a look, Senior?

Brother Qin, you are too courteous. Please come with me.

Brother Qin, your family is not ordinary, thus you have naturally experienced many things.

Brother Qin, please go in.

There is no need for me to speak much about these ordinary items.

However, there is no harm in taking a look at this.

This is an extremely precious imperial stone.

- Imperial stone? - That's right.

I have heard of it, but have never seen it before.

Among the Nine Heavens and Orderly Stars, this holds an immense amount of energy.

Everyone knows that a meteorite passing by implies that there is a very strong energy present,

but they do not know about this imperial stone.

It can help a martial arts cultivator to heighten communication with a celestial soul.

Brother Qin, if you are interested, I can take you to my blacksmithing hall.

There are a lot of materials available there for you to examine and test out.

Much thanks to you, Senior.

Brother Qin, please.

This is the blade of the Sharp Golden Armor-Piercing Knife.

This magical pattern is indeed complex.

Oh, right! Wait here for a moment. You can try to refine this magical weapon.

- I will go relay some things to the head servant. - All right.

I will be right back.

It would be a pity to waste these materials.

How about I give it a try?

This spiritual diagram contains thousands of ancient Holy Patterns.

The person who can understand this, its magical power,

can see the mysteries

that others cannot.

Brother Qin, how is it?

I just saw you refining the sword and got some insight,

so I gave it a try. Please give me your advice.

This is your first attempt?

It is a little rough, but it's already great.

Thank you for your advice.

It's getting late. I won't be a bother. I'll come and see you another day.

Yes. Please.

Qin Wentian? Why did he come?

Elder Mu Qing.

[Mu Qing - Elder of the Galaxy Guild]

Feng Ping, you've improved lately.

Isn't this Qin Wentian's short sword?

Good.

Feng Ping, if only you could refine more magical weapons like this,

you'll become an elder of the Galaxy Guild...

soon.

Thank you, Elder Mu Qing.

Master, this Feng Ping has a problem.

He came here many years ago and never made anything like that.

The magical patterns were quite amazing,

but the engraving technique was very shaky.

If Feng Ping still cannot make weapons,

his technique shouldn't be this shaky.

It seems someone else made it.

Watch him carefully. We must find

who secretly refined this magical weapon.

Yes.

Crown Prince, I am Qin Yao, a disciple of the Lotus Academy.

This is the Lotus Academy.

This is... the Lotus Academy?

What do you think?

I'll show you around. [Qin Yao - Eldest daughter of the Qin Clan]

Let's go.

- Qin Yao. - Elder Mo Shang.

Yao'er, outsiders can't come to the Lotus Academy

that freely.

Very pleased to meet you. I am Yi Wuwei.

Yi Wuwei?

Then, you are the Crown Prince.

Yes.

I was instructed to come to the Lotus Academy.

Right! Isn't there an old person named Ren Qianxing here?

Impudent!

How dare you say my master's name?

Elder Mo Shang,

if you are his disciple,

then am I not you're...

Qin Yao, you look so young.

Maybe you're even a younger disciple.

Wouldn't you call me "Martial Uncle," then?

You—

Since Your Highness the Crown Prince has been ordered to come here to cultivate,

then please wait a few days.

Go to the Dark Forest to practice.

I have to take part in practice?

What? You don't want to?

I want. Of course, I do.

Let's go.

Master.

Will you really accept Yi Wuwei as your disciple?

Call him, "Junior Brother."

I really didn't think you would come to see me.

I always thought of you as my younger sister.

- Let's go. - All right.

Older Brother Wentian, actually I came

to apologize for my father and sister.

What they did was too excessive.

It's all in the past. It has nothing to do with you.

Qing'er, I still have to thank you for helping me last time.

- Then, can Qing'er come to see you at the Lotus Academy? - Yes.

Then that's good!

Older Brother Wentian, is this pretty?

Buy it for your wife. It's the only one.

- There's no need. - How about these?

I want this.

Thank you.

I'm giving it to you.

Older Brother Wentian, I made you waste your money.

It's all right. I will soon go to Lotus Academy.

Take this hairpin as a keepsake.

Thank you, Older Brother Wentian! You are too nice to me!

Let's go!

[Qin Manor]

- Brother Qin! - Senior Feng Ping?

Brother Qin, I finally found you.

What is it?

Brother Qin.

Even though, I, Feng Ping, am mediocre,

I want to be more proficient at magical patterns.

But my prospects seem limited.

Brother Qin, when I saw you,

it was like seeing hope.

I want to have you as my master. I will not hesitate

to follow this path my whole life.

Please, Brother Qin, help me.

Master Feng Ping, you are a blacksmith, but want me to be your master?

I don't have the qualifications.

Moreover, I am about to leave for the Lotus Academy to cultivate.

Even if you want me as your master, I can't teach you anything.

Brother Qin, I've already wasted ten years.

But for you, I'm willing to wait ten years.

Twenty years. Thirty years.

All right.

Brother Qin, you agree?

- Feng Ping pays his respects to Master! - Please get up!

Get up!

Qingcheng! Qingcheng! What is wrong?

- It hurts. - Servants! Come.

Come.

Careful!

[Old Lao - Previous Patriarch of the Mo Clan]

Master, is Miss all right?

Take good care of her.

Elder,

Qingcheng lost consciousness.

I already know.

A calamity is waiting upon our world.

Is it Baijian City...

Then Qingcheng isn't—

Tianlin, you must take good care of Qingcheng.

Her time...

is short, I'm afraid.

Master, Qin Wentian is right there.

Not bad. This is really not bad.

Brother Qin, would you allow me to sit here?

Certainly.

Let's go.

Brother Qin, I am the elder of Tianyong City's division

of the Galaxy Guild.

I came to invite you

to become the Galaxy Guild Invited Elder.

Elder, you can't be serious. I have no experience.

I can't accept this work.

Brother Qin, you are young,

but I can see that you have a great aptitude.

Once the time comes, you'll accomplish great things.

Thank you, Elder, for your praise, but I am going to the Lotus Academy to cultivate.

I really do not have such will.

Since it's like this. I'm not going to force you.

How about becoming friends?

Of course. I am really humbled by your kindness.

Good. Good.

Today, we already have fate through this cup of tea.

Brother Qin, if you ever encounter troubles from now on,

just say so.

I will help you as much as I can.

Thank you, Elder.

- Please. - All right.

[Qin Manor]

Son, once you get to the Lotus Academy,

remember to maintain face for our Qin Clan. Understand?

Yes, Second Uncle.

Father, Second Uncle, Third Uncle.

I'm leaving.

Your sister is at the Lotus Academy.

Once you're there, you must look out for each other.

Don't worry, Father.

Go on.

Go on.

[Fan Le]

What a good place.

Please, everyone, come see what this is!

- Let's go have a look. - Isn't this a broken sickle?

What broken sickle?

Look at it.

Look carefully! What is written on it?

- Dark Night Clan. - That's right. Dark Night Clan.

This a magic weapon called a hooked spear.

- Hooked spear? - 500 years ago, when the Dark Night Clan attacked my Great Yi,

fortunately, there were the Scarlet Metal Sky Walls to stop them.

The outside of those Scarlet Metal Sky Walls

was filled with corpses and a river of blood.

Now, who can still find ruins of that time?

We can't find it! This thing

was picked up by me when I went outside of the Scarlet Metal Sky Walls

to gather medicinal herbs.

This is an ancient thing.

- It's probably valuable. - Hey! That's right!

What this brother said is correct.

This is an antique from 500 years ago. It belongs to the Dark Night Clan.

- 500 years? - Is there really something so miraculous?

Really?

Let me take a look.

Why is an antique that is 500 years old...

so new?

What is this? He is probably trying to scam people.

It's 500 years old! This is a magical weapon from 500 years ago!

- It is a magical weapon! It has to stay new! Magical weapon right? - A liar. How can it be 500 years old?

Qin Wentian!

Qin Wentian! Why are you everywhere?

Whenever I want to conduct a little business and sell something, you come to ruin it.

I have already been forced to move from Tianyong City to Imperial City here by you!

What more do you want? Hey! What exactly are you trying to do?!

I have already you told to stop scamming people long ago.

- I still have business to tend to. I'm leaving now. - Stop right there!

I heard that you've made a name for yourself.

At the Almighty Platform, where the Four Great Academies come together to recruit disciples, you really put yourself out there to the fullest extent.

Now that you have ruined my business, you must compensate me.

You must take me with you to report to Lotus Academy.

Although you are in Imperial City, you seem to be well-informed.

I am going to the Dark Forest to participate in the final stage of the trial right now.

- You have never even participated in the assessment. There is no use in taking you along with me. - Hey, hey, hey!

As long as you take me along,

I will find a way to participate in the final stage of the trial at the Dark Forest.

Not possible.

Stand right there!

Boss!

I'll recognize you as my boss! Is that not enough?

- Get up. Get up. - Everyone, quickly come look!

- Hurry and get up. - At Tianyong City,

- What are you doing? - ...we were brothers for years!

I'll take you with me, all right?

- Really? - I can take you with me,

but if they don't want you then I can't do anything about it.

All right!

- Let's go. - What are you all looking at?!

- What kind of act was that? - Boss.

[Mo Manor]

- Grandfather, eat some vegetables. - All right, all right.

Qingcheng, I heard your father say that

you are feeling unwell today.

Are you all right?

I'm fine now.

Grandfather, eat this fish. This fish is delicious.

Here.

Look, our Qingcheng is such a good girl today.

She is considered good? She just sneaked out of the manor two days ago.

I didn't even get to question you yet. Where did you go?

Grandfather, there is something I want to discuss with you.

Go on.

I want to go to Lotus Academy to cultivate with Auntie.

No! You still want to run off away from home?

Stay here with your grandfather. You are not allowed to go anywhere.

Grandfather, look at my father.

I'm already an adult, yet he still locks me up at home and won't let me go out.

I'm going to be bored to death soon.

Look! As the saying goes, "It's hard to keep a grown woman home."

It looks like this manor is not enough to keep Qingcheng here.

Grandfather, just approve of it.

I also want to cultivate my magic so that I can succeed in the Mo Clan

and share the burdens of you two elders.

Our Qingcheng has grown up.

She is thinking of bearing some of our burdens.

Then, what reason do we have to not let her go?

Grandfather, you dote on me the most. Unlike Father.

This—

Letting Qingcheng go to Lotus Academy

may not be a bad thing.

After all, it is a quiet, reputable place where one can be away from worldly affairs.

Besides, Mo Shang will take care of Qingcheng.

That's right.

Then, I will allow you to go as well.

Thank you, Father. Thank you, Grandfather.

Then I will go pack my bag right now.

Wait!

What is it?

Qingcheng,

let me take another good look at you.

I am reluctant to let you go.

Grandfather, once I have learned magic, I'll ride a magical beast

and be back in a whoosh.

I promise to frequently come back to see you, all right?

All right. All right.

When I am not by your side,

you must learn to take care of yourself.

You must take care of yourself, too.

I am leaving now.

Leave us.

Have some tea, please.

Lord Ye, rest assured. I will do all that I can [Lone Wolf - Dark Night Clan] (T/N: the romanization of Lone Wolf is "Gu Lang")

to help the Ye Clan become the greatest clan in the Yi Empire.

We shall suppress the Qin Clan and replace the Mo Clan.

Thank you once again for your vigorous aid, Sir.

Once we rise into power and rule the lands,

our Ye Clan will undoubtedly

be of service to the Dark Night Clan.

Thank you.

Although the Qin Clan holds great military power, it is under the Mo Clan's control.

Thus, we can see

that the Mo Clan conceals their true powers.

I have tried to inquire about the Mo Clan's details many times.

Yet I have only vaguely found

that the Mo Clan seems to be strictly guarding a secret.

Strictly guarding a secret?

However, I do not know

what this secret is.

Secret? Mo Clan?

This is a bit interesting.

Someday, I will certainly go

investigate it.

Furthermore,

amongst the four great clans, the heavens have already chosen

my son, Ye Wuque,

and the daughter of the Bai Clan, Bai Qiuxue.

That also means that there is no need for Qin Wentian and Mo Qingcheng

to exist.

These two people already belong to Lotus Academy.

There is no way you don't know, Sir,

that Lotus Academy exists

in order to oppose your Dark Night Clan.

Moreover, they have continuously recruited men and acquired weapons.

Now that they have Qin Wentian and Mo Qingcheng as disciples,

Lotus Academy will become more powerful as time passes.

There is no way I can let them be.

Let us Ye Clan take care of the Qin Clan.

As for the Mo Clan, especially that Mo Qingcheng,

I will leave them to you, Sir.

Qin Wentian.

I will see just what exactly is strange your about your blood.

This is the place where the Four Great Academies gather together to recruit disciples?

Lotus Academy is there. Let us quickly go and report to them.

- Let's go. - Let's go, let's go, let's go.

Here. Next.

All right.

Senior Brother.

- Junior Brother Qin, right? I am Da Shan. - Hello, Senior Brother Da Shan.

Hello, Senior Brother Da Shan. I am Fan Le.

Hello, Fan Le.

Next.

Her Highness, Qingcheng?

It's her?

Do you know her?

Wentian!

Elder Sister.

- Fan Le. - Hello, Elder Sister Yao'er.

This is Senior Sister Rou Huan.

Hello, Senior Sister Rou Huan.

This is Yi Wuwei.

Yi Wuwei?

This name sounds very familiar.

- You still came. - What a coincidence. Princess Qingcheng is here as well.

Your condition is quite well. It seems that Lotus Academy has taken quite good care of you.

Turns out her name is Qingcheng.

I heard Bai Qiuxue connected with the celestial soul of the Third Heaven.

- That is amazing. - Young Master Ye is here.

Qiuxue?

I didn't expect him to come as well.

Isn't that Her Highness, Qingcheng?

It seems like members of the four great clans are here this time.

She is indeed our Great Yi's number one beauty.

As expected, "an extreme beauty has the power to ruin a nation." (T/N: the idiom is "倾国倾城 qing guo qing cheng)" which contains her name Qingcheng.)

The recruitment this time is really not that simple.

So she is Mo Qingcheng.

All the disciples here for the admission assessment of the Four Great Academies, gather here.

- Let's go. - Let's go, let's go, let's go.

On behalf of the Four Great Academies, I will announce the rules.

This Dark Forest here is the last exam to qualify into the Four Great Academies.

Inside, there are illusionary formations to test your patience.

Although you all have passed the test at the Almighty Platform,

do not underestimate these formations.

If you cannot withstand the formation, it will consume and confuse your mind.

Although it is not life-threatening, it will be considered failing this assessment

and you will be eliminated.

This exam will last for one day.

Those who get through this trial smoothly will have succeeded in completing the assessment.

I wish you all good luck.

Let's start!

- Let's go. - All right.

Let's go! Let's go together.

This Dark Forest is not that dangerous at all.

However,

this scenery is not bad.

Qin Wentian, I want to ask you something.

Your blood...

Qingcheng.
