[Fights Break Sphere]

[Episode 4]

It's like this. Inside this ring,

lives an exceptionally great fighter. He's the master, of my mother, who died many years ago.

I usually go into this ring to train.

I think your mind got muddled from being burned.

But it's true. Let me tell you! Inside this ring, there's a really huge mountain and waterfalls.

There are all kinds of pellet medicines in there, too. Seriously, I'm not lying to you.

And I tell you, that there's even an earring sprite inside my earrings. Do you believe it?

No, Xun Er. I'm not joking around.

I'm serious.

I don't believe it. If you don't want to tell me, then let's forget it.

I have no more interest in knowing how you became so good either.

But I do believe you are gifted.

You will eventually make everyone admire and look up to you.

Xun'er, for so many years, I have lived in a muddleheaded manner.

Don't worry. I won't ever be like that again.

Fortunately, you have always been by my side.

When I was little, my health wasn't so good.

Each night, someone would come to my room and transfer his Fight Qi energy to me

and help warm my vital channel.

As a result, he caused himself to be drenched in sweat.

Who would you say that was?

I...

Father said that once you're awake, go to the inner courtyard to find him.

I will.

Father.

Why did you take this?

Because... it's an Earth Rank Fight Technique.

Heaven and earth are black and yellow, the universe is vast and in primal chaos. [From Thousand Character Classic, a child's primer ]

Why didn't you take the Sky Rank Fighting Technique?

Sky Rank Fighting Technique... I was afraid that I...

What were you afraid of?

Father, what's wrong?

What you took is the Three Thousand Thunder Movement.

It was initially a Sky Rank Fighting Technique. However, because it's a remnant scroll, it was downgraded to Earth Rank.

The other half is currently in the hands of the Blood Sect, a subordinate of Soul Hall.

I really didn't know that.

Is that so?

Why did you take this then?

You went to get an Earth Rank Middle Level Fighting Technique located in the darkest area of the Fighting Technique Pavilion.

Why?

I...

Does your Master covet this Sky Rank Fighting Technique?

Master? What Master?

I was just lucky.

Lucky?

In one month's time,

you've reached the seventh stage in your Fight Qi Skills.

Your Fight Qi whirl was condensed into a very solid manner. You also did the Eight Extreme Collapse well.

That day, you were even able to break the seal

and obtain a remnant scroll of a Heaven Rank Fight Technique.

For so much good luck to end up with one person,

don't you think that's strange?

Who's teaching you martial arts skills?

Son,

a person can be incapable,

but he cannot lack moral character!

Get up. Let me see what you're capable of!

Father...

Eight Extreme Collapse!

A technique of the Star Fall Pavilion.

Your mother didn't teach you that martial arts skill.

Indeed, Mother didn't teach me that before.

But she did leave behind many good things for me.

Keep this matter a secret.

Do you hear me?

Yes.

Father, you gave me a good scare.

It's you who almost scared me to death.

Increasing one's Fight Qi Skills by 7 stages to become a Fight Qi Practitioner within a month.

Your Eight Extreme Collapse almost killed me.

How about it? Have you decided on your path for training?

I've thought about it already.

I want to enter Jia Nan Academy.

I want to get stronger. I want to defeat Nalan Yanran.

I want to seek revenge for Mother.

I want all those who have taken advantage of us

to pay the price.

The path to cultivation is long.

You never know what will happen in the next moment.

You've grown up. Change your hairstyle.

You'll be leaving soon.

I will pass to you the Six Characters Precept passed down for generations in our Xiao Family, all right?

Father.

When you can't defeat someone, run away quickly.

Jia Nan Academy is the top academy on the whole Fight Qi continent.

It was created by the Fight God, thousands of years ago.

Every year, outstanding students chosen from all over the Fight Qi continent will travel far

to Jia Nan for advanced training. [Black Point Region Forest]

To take revenge for mother, to seek justice from the Five Great Clans,

and also there's the arranged meeting in three year's time with Nalan Yanran.

Going to Jia Nan to learn is the first step that I must take.

I set out full of happiness, but who would have thought

that just walking into the gates of Jia Nan Academy would be very difficult.

Stay closer to me. All of you, keep up!

Prepare to set up camp and eat.

The Energy Talisman is the monetary unit here at Jia Nan Academy.

Inside the academy, if you want to improve your food, refine, obtain medicine pellets,

or improve your skills inside the special cultivation rooms, all of you will have to use these.

For the first month, each of you will get 10 mei (units). If you lose them,

you will just have to become a beggar inside the academy.

After you pass through the Black Point Region Forest up ahead,

you will have reached the academy. Our academy has a tradition.

All freshmen must undergo a Smelting Trial.

You all are on your own from here.

Entering the forest for the Smelting Trail will also be your first lesson since entering the academy.

You have to think of a way to charge through it.

There will be teachers secretly keeping watch over you!

That's so strange. She leaves just as she sees fit.

That's right. Smelting Trial?

Don't know what's inside this forest.

Are you all right?

- Are you all right? - He fell so badly.

There are Magical Beasts inside there.

There are Magical Beasts within the academy?

What should we do now?

You're fine. Take your time and tell us. Who hit you?

Just after I went in, there were older students who suddenly stole my energy talismans.

They said that first years deserve to be beaten and stolen from.

This is the Smelting Trial. If they wanted to steal, they could have just done so. Why did they still have to hit me?

It's fine... How many of them are there? What Fight Technique did they use?

I... I didn't even see anything clearly

and before I knew it, I-I was beaten up and sent flying out of there.

Where's Hao Tian?

Oh, no! Hao Tian said that he had diarrhea.

Back to back!

Let's go.

Are you all right? Is anything wrong?

- What are you doing? - What do you want?

- Give it to me. - Bring it here. Bring it over here.

Do you know who I am?

I've got people watching my back.

They're people from the academy.

Once we arrive at the academy,

we'll resolutely tell on all of you!

- Brother, if you have something to say, say it. - Hand it over!

- Tell on me? - No...

Lad, take out your energy talismans.

- Don't have any. - Don't have any?

What are you doing?

Run!

Eight Extreme Collapse!

Hurry!

- Let's run! - Go.

- It was so dangerous today. - That's right. So scary.

Such bad luck. Each year, I come here,

and each year I end up going home. What a lousy academy!

I'm not going to learn anymore. I'll just go back and do business.

This is the third time already.

For the previous two times, my energy talismans were all stolen.

I was forced to drop out of the academy.

In passing through the Black Point Region Forest,

1/3 of the first years will get eliminated.

Even if we're able to pass the Smelting Trial,

if all your energy talismans are stolen,

you'll have no food to eat and no means of exchange for medicine pellets,

and the difficulty level of cultivation will be so high, even an iron man would collapse from exhaustion.

Also, after a month, 1/3 will get eliminated again.

What you mean is that among us,

there will only be a small number of us who will truly stay in the Jia Nan Academy?

- Just a small number of us? - Why is it like this?

Aren't you a student in alchemy? Don't tell me you are also joining them?

I... I only have Stage 2 Fight Qi Skills.

Stage 2 Fight Qi Skills? How did you get in then?

Was it really like what you were shouting about earlier, that your family has connections?

I... I was just trying to scare them back then.

But I do know all about medicinal formulas. There's no formula that I don't know about.

Hence, I was a special recruit.

But the academy will choose the best Fight Practitioners.

Every batch, they would eliminate 2/3 of the first years.

In the best school,

of course, only the best Fight Practitioners can get in.

What do you mean by that?

Who are you?

My parents once joined the expedition of the Great War with the Soul Hall.

All of them went but none returned.

Since I was little, I followed my uncle

and grew up in a mercenary group within the Magical Beast Mountain Range.

I've been a magical beast hunter for seven years.

Only this year did I gain admittance into the academy.

What's the use of being loyal and brave? Won't we still get bullied by these seniors?

Other than stealing our energy talismans and spending them,

they don't really care if we can survive it.

Everyone, don't despair.

We will all be Fight Practitioners in the future.

We're just starting. What's the use of abandoning ourselves to despair?

What Xun Er said is right.

We mustn't resign ourselves to adversity.

Who said that first years must lose to the seniors?

Anyway, when you encounter a stronger opponent,

I have never seen a Fight Practitioner who would just sit by and wait for death.

Since the academy was built, I have never heard

of any first years defeating the seniors.

That was the past, not the present.

It wasn't easy for us to get to where we are now.

Now, either we go home dejected, or...

let's give it all we've got!

Let's give it all we've got!

What if we fail? Isn't that just suffering in vain?

There are so many of us. I'm sure we can come up with something.

How's this? Let's all share what our special skills are.

I know how to surround magical beasts and create traps.

I'm able to scout for information.

Scout information? Where are you from?

I... am an orphan. Born from Heaven and raised by the Earth.

Let's not talk about others. What about you?

Me?

I know a lot about medicinal herbs. Will that help?

Of course. You'll be our medic and be in charge of taking care of the wounded students.

Good.

When you hunted all those magical beasts,

the magical beasts usually had levels higher than humans, but you were always successful.

What method did you use?

Know yourself and know your enemy. Find the target's location and weakness.

Right, you've been in this forest many times.

Do you remember the location of those seniors?

And you still say you don't have much to contribute? You're the most useful out of all us!

The first pass is being guarded by Bai Cheng's group.

They will hide in the deep parts to surround you.

Most are unable to get pass this stage.

Upon entering the forest, you'll be ambushed.

Here, the second batch of seniors guarding are

with Black Evil Lei Xiong and White Evil Ye Xun.

They rank fifth among the top fighters of Jia Nan Academy.

Both of them have completed the cultivation to Fight Grand Master.

If you luckily pass through this stage,

getting past the third obstacle is a hopeless case.

The third obstacle is Bai Shan (White Mountain).

No one knows what his strength is.

The first years that were eliminated at this stage either suffered broken hands or feet,

or were so scared that they never wanted to be Fight Practitioners again.

Come over here. Take a look, everyone.

This is the grape juice that my auntie personally made.

Let me tell you that inside this, she added Green Spiritual Herbs and Snake Saliva Fruit.

After drinking this, your Fight Qi will increase.

This is a very rare find.

More importantly, you can only find this in the Magical Beast Mountain Range.

We won't leave anything today. Let's drink it all!

Good! Good!

Up!

-Let us down! - Let us down!

This gang of scoundrels!

Pieces of trash! What are you looking at?

- Let-Let us down! - Aren't you the amazing ones?

We are talking to you!

- Brats! - Brats!

I'm going to kill you!

Senior Brother, no matter how old you are, you are still a student.

No vulgarity.

- What are you doing? - What are we doing? You took my roast rabbit away.

You need to pay for it.

Let me warn you. You should know your place.

Wasn't it just a lousy rabbit?

Let me down. I will catch eighty or a hundred of those for you.

That's not needed. When we were hunting in the Magical Beast Mountain Range,

we'd kill some hunters and roast them for our meal when we were out of food supplies.

Let me tell you, he really is from the Cannibal Clan.

He just caught an old man and ate his arm raw.

It was so bloody that I could hardly watch it.

No, Brother! People will die!

Let's negotiate, Brother. I feel like my hair is burning.

Bai Cheng took all the rabbits on his own.

- Darn you. - He did it alone. Just roast him only.

Traitor! You are disloyal. Someone can die over this!

Then are you going to pay back Lin Xiuya's rabbits?

Release them.

Take off all their clothes. Don't leave any clothes behind.

What are you doing?

Xun'er, why don't you go away for a bit.

It's not something for a girl to see.

- All right. - Let go!

What are you doing?

Hey!

Don't undress me.

- Don't undress me! - Quick... Take it off.

Do your best!

Where did you hide the energy talismans?

Thinking of leaving?

What are you laughing at? Just let us go.

Aren't you feeling great?

Those brats are really sly.

"Been catching eagles your whole life, but you let an eagle slip away within a blink of an eye." [T/N: Everyone makes mistakes, even the best among us.]

And you let the first years snatch away the energy talismans.

Capture them later

and strip them bare. Then, take back the energy talismans and distribute them equally.

- Did you hear that? - What does it have anything to do with you?

Your share will go to us as fees for sealing our lips about this.

No, Big Brother... This...

Let them down.

Quick, quick!

Stop laughing. Give me something to wear.

- I don't have anything... - Give me something to wear.

Stop laughing already.

Big Brother, do you have any extra clothes?

- Find him some clothes. - Did you hear that? Hurry.

Hurry.

Everyone, look what I found!

These mushrooms are hard to find in the marketplace.

And no one picks them in the woods.

These morchella mushrooms along with a fish

and then densely stewed in a pot.

Savory. Savory.

That's enough. Once that pot of yours lets out any smoke,

the Black White Evil Duo will come and pursue us.

I think none of us will have a chance to drink the soup.

Let me tell you. There is no need to worry.

If the Black White Evil Duo dare to show up,

we will make them look for their teeth on the ground.

See this tree? We will beat them, undress them, and tie them to this tree.

They will then watch us drink our soup.

Once we are done drinking our soup, we will feed them our piss,

take their energy talismans and return to the academy. How about that?

- Great! - Sounds good!

Brother Xiao Yan, I never imagined you would have so many trivial thoughts.

Hu Jia, let's go catch some fishes.

Let's go.

- Catch a big one! - Sure.

Brother Ye. Brother Lei. Did you hear what those brats said?

I don't care what they say about me.

But I can't tolerate them insulting you two.

He makes me so angry I feel faint.

Then you go fight them.

No... I will follow your orders, of course.

The fish is here!

We've been waiting for so long.

- The soup is ready. - Come, take this.

What do you think?

I don't think it'll be so easy.

It's so bold of them to cook in the forest.

It looks like they are trying to lure us out.

The one named Xiao Yan is too sly.

We need to know clearly what's going on before going in.

Of course.

You will do the cooking from now on.

No problem!

The few of you, move to their rear.

Once we attack, no one should be spared.

It smells so good!

- Let me taste it first... - Let me taste it, too.

- How is it? - Good soup! Very tasty.

Xun'er, do you want to have a taste of it?

Leader, if we don't attack now, the soup will be all gone.

Shut up. Move aside.

- Come. I'll scoop a bowl for you. - Let me...

Delicious.

There is a total of 500 energy talismans. I'll take 300. Divide the remaining 200 among yourselves.

Why should you alone get so much?

Why? If not for me,

you would all have pissed in your pants out of fear.

All these energy talismans would have been stolen for sure.

It was your idea, but everyone did their part.

Xun'er, why are you being so silly?

If I get more, you won't lose out either.

This isn't fair. Everyone should get an equal share.

- How is this unfair? - Hey, that's enough.

How about this? Xiao Yan gets a share of 200.

- How can it be like that? - Soft-boned (Unethical). - Indeed.

- Bring it out! - Hey! What are you doing? Even drawing out your knife, are you?

Let me tell you. If not for me,

all of you would not have any energy talismans.

Now that there are some, you are being picky. Right?

Reckless people.

We really overestimated them.

500 energy talismans.

The two of us have hit a small bonanza.

- Right. Each of us gets 200. Divide the remaining 100 among the rest. - And me?

In regards to Bai Cheng, no need to give him any.

No, my two leaders. That's too careless, right?.

I was even tortured into such a state.

At least give me some compensation.

Big Brother.

But there are many of us.

After we have distributed them, how much is left?

What are all you up to? Thinking of snatching them, right?

You've forgotten how I saved you all?

Brother Xiao Yan, there are so many of them and there's just one of you.

We're at a disadvantage. Maybe you ought to think about this again.

Stop talking nonsense. Quickly divide it equally.

Xiao Yan, can you fight all alone and defeat so many of us?

I can't fight and defeat? Do you believe that I'll dump these into this fire right now?

- All of us won't get any! Don't come near me! - What are you doing?

Back away! Keep backing away or I'll throw them in!

- Don't do anything rash! - Back up... - Xiao Yan, you idiot!

- Try throwing them in. - Do you believe that I'll throw them in now? I'm really throwing!

- Just try to move and I'll kill you! - I'm really throwing!

I'm really throwing! I'll throw--

That soup isn't bad. Be my chef from now on.

Our money.

Bai Cheng, come over and hit him.

Sure.

What are you laughing at?

You must be Xiao Yan.

Senior Brother Hei, you've gotten what you wanted. How about letting us go?

Let's be friends. High like the mountain and long like the river (be noble and far-reaching). If it's fated, we'll joyfully meet again.

You brat, still trying to smooth talk me.

Who was the one who said that this tree stump was prepared for us?

And would even tie us to it, making us watch all you drink your fish soup?

Who said it?

It wasn't me. It really wasn't me.

Senior, he was the one who said it.

We can give you all our energy talismans.

But you must teach that scoundrel a lesson on our behalf!

Help us vent our anger!

Quiet!

Watch them well.

This soup looks good.

Drinking this soup will make my day.

This soup smells delicious.

Still laughing? Tell me, where did you put my clothes?

They won't even call me to have some of that fish soup.

I don't get a share in the distribution of the energy talismans either.

What Black White Evil Duo are they?

Pshaw! They are Black White Scoundrels!

Later, I'll go steal some by myself.

Delicious.

Give me some.

Wait for me! Give me some. Give me some.

Brother, give me some of yours.

Brother Ye, give me some.

Brother, leave some for me.

Oh no!

You... This...

What is wrong? Brother...

No. What did you all do?

You all even resorted to poisoning?!

Don't... Don't undress me. I just put them on.

Two hundred. Xun'er!

Awake?

- You plotted against me. - Plotted against you?

The 1000 energy talismans in their hands

were all found on the two of you.

Tell me. How many students did you thieve?

We're going easy on you as it is.

Xiao Yan, just wait for me. Don't hide.

I absolutely will not hide.

Since you came looking for us, you have to remember clearly

and not be mistaken.

This is Hao Tian, a medicine smelt genius.

His poisoning and detoxification skills are extraordinary.

This is Lin Xiuya, number one in masterly martial arts skills.

He has hunted more magical beasts

than the amount of hair on your head.

That person is Hu Jia, with the worst temper.

No one dares to provoke him.

I'm Xiao Yan. Nothing special about me.

Just that I'm a little smarter than the two of you.

Brother Xiao Yan, what about me?

This is my little sister, Xun'er. She's the best girl in the world.

If any of you ever bullies her,

I'll definitely skin all of you.

Xiao Yan, is not your mother just--

Everyone, the hatred between them and me is set.

Now, when they talk, they also insult my parents.

It'll bother me if I don't punish them now.

What did you say a moment ago?

After drinking the soup, what should be done? Do you remember?

What are you planning to do?

- Stop joking! - Brother Xiao Yan.

- Don't take it too far... - It'll be fine.

Are you really doing it? Don't...

Brother... Brother Xiao... Warrior Xiao... Don't joke around!

- Brother Xiao. You really... - Brother Xiao. Noble Warrior Xiao.

Why are you just sitting there? Help me beg for mercy!

Noble Warrior Xiao, we're also reputable people inside the school.

If you do that, we might as well kill ourselves.

Right. Don't worry. In the future, if anyone mocks you at the academy,

- we will support you. - That's useless.

- From now on, we're your sidekicks. - Your errand boys.

- Little labor force. - Little flea.

More. More.

Today is a beautiful and bright day.

Jia Nan Academy begins its General Assembly.

This is to welcome the first years.

It is also Jia Nan Academy's fifth...

F-Fifth...

Good.

F-Fifty-fifth General Assembly for first years.

Royal Father ordered me to give his sincere regards

to all the teachers h-here.

Jia Nan Academy's long history

has cultivated

c-c-count...

- Good. - Good.

Who wrote this speech?

I don't know. When this Crown Prince Ye Lan mentions the word "wu," he stutters.

...c-countless talents.

During the confrontational battle with the Soul Hall,

continuously injecting fresh...

blood...

This...

This... What is this?

Good speech. Give him a round of applause.

Excuse me, Senior. May I ask, from here to the academy,

how far is it?

It's not that far.

But even if no one gives you directions, I'm afraid you won't get there today.

- Why not? - There are too many energy talismans on you.

Hand them over.

I can then consider letting you go home.

If not, I'll break your legs today so you'll have to stay here.

Senior, may I ask how we should address you?

I am Bai Shan.

Take one fist from me!

Xiuya! Lin Xiuya!

Eight Extreme Collapse!

Brother Xiao Yan.

Interesting.

No wonder Black White Evil Duo were defeated.

Come at me again.

Move aside.

Eight Extreme—

Run!

Where are the energy talismans? Hand them over.

What are you doing?

Medicine Elder!

Medicine Elder!

Medicine Elder. Medicine Elder!
