Chapter 601: The Scum Is Inhibited

A bright light can be seen in the sky like a giant star, making the surroundings look as if it was the day. The second elimination period is now here. They all fell asleep without meaning to because of how exhausted they are during the day earlier. Their sleep-muddled brains almost forgot about the second elimination period!

"Good middle-of-the-evening, participants!" a loud voice greeted, as if it was shouting just beside their ears, making them all almost jumped out of their tents after being started by the voice.

Their sleep-muddled brains were instantly jolted awake. "…" fck! Why is it Cheng Sheng?! They all thought as their faces twisted in both shock and confusion after they recognized the extremely familiar voice. They thought that it would be Zheng Yi!

"Oh? They all have gone to sleep?" everyone heard Cheng Sheng spoke.

Sun Yan and Fei Luo who had just finished their 'exercise' and naturally completely awake. "…"

Xi Bing and Fei Huo who were wrapped in an awkward atmosphere. "…"

Among the Shanliangde Sect disciples, only Xi He was truly asleep, as he had to exert all of his energy when he has fallen into Wu Tie's trap thus he also had to fight against xiao Bao and xiao Ling. Sun Ri, after coming into this special space, learned to become a light sleeper. Thus, she instantly woke up when she heard Cheng Sheng's voice.

"Since they dared to sleep, I guess we have to double the point threshold…" Cheng Sheng said.

Everyone became completely awake. "No!" they exclaimed as they hurried out of their tents with their hairs and clothes still messy.

So, when Sun Yan and Fei Luo came out, they looked just like the other participants who was roused in the middle of their sleep. Sun Yan naturally knows that he shouldn't overdo his and Fei Luo's 'exercise', thus Fei Luo only look slightly tired. Fortunately, everyone also are focused on the point threshold right now and are panicking so no one noticed that he and Fei Luo came out of one tent together, despite they should have slept on different tents.

Fei Huo, still distracted by Xi Bing's confession earlier, dazedly came out of the tent followed by the similarly dazed Xi Bing. Fei Huo didn't even notice his elder brother Fei Luo.

"Oh? They are actually awake?" Cheng Sheng said. "A pity… just when I was about to take this opportunity to… ehem." He coughed, didn't continue what he was about to say.

Everyone. "…" what was he about to say? To pit them again? They thought as their faces were covered with black lines.

"Ehem. Participants." it was Zheng Yi. "Today is the second elimination period, and the point threshold is – " he said.

Everyone immediately held their breaths.

" – one thousand points." Zheng Yi said.

The Xinfaxian Sect and the Youxiwang Sect, as well as the others, sighed in relief. Fortunately, the point threshold is low this time.

Meanwhile the Shanliangde Sect fell silent. Even if they have finally decided to go in pairs so that only less points will be deducted from them by xiao Bao and xiao Ling, their points still fall short with the point threshold this time. Added to the fact that they hadn't been able to farm for more points today…

Fei Yinzi saw the gloomy Shanliangde Sect.

"Let's see… hey, Zheng Yi. Finally, in this round, there will be some who will be eliminated!" Cheng Sheng's voice spoke. "Let's see… yi? The Shanliangde Sect? And there are three of them!" he said.

Everyone sucked in a sharp breath. Obviously, it is Sun Yan, Fei Luo, and Sun Ri. Since Xi He went solo, fortunately, he didn't just focused all of his attention on Wu Tie and he managed to save himself in this second elimination period. He must want to face Wu Tie again, thus he farmed for points.

Xi Bing and Fei Huo only had the task of farming points, so they did. Meanwhile, Sun Ri stayed in the Xinfaxian Sect's and Youxiwang Sect's base since Sun Yan knows that she can't keep up with their pace in farming points. As for Sun Yan and Fei Luo, they didn't have the chance to recover the points that xiao Ling and xiao Bao deducted from them.

"Shifu!" Fei Yinzi called amidst the silence.

They all turned to him.

"Oh? Brat, you finally called me 'shifu'!" Cheng Sheng spoke.

Fei Yinzi. "…" is this the time for this? He thought.

The others. "…" so even in the way his disciple is addressing him, Cheng Sheng is strict?! They thought and looked at Fei Yinzi with pity in their eyes.

Fei Yinzi coughed. He looked at Chen Wu, who nodded. "Shifu." He called and cupped his hands before he respectfully bowed. "The Xinfaxian Sect, Youxiwang Sect, Zunjingde Sect, Qianxu Sect, Huakai Sect, Huli Sect, Yuling Sect, Guhe Sect, and the rogue cultivator Lan have something to request." He spoke.

"Oh? What is it?" Cheng Sheng asked, although he, Zheng Yi and the others already know what they wanted to say, as they were watching them.

"We wanted to give some of our points to Sun Yan, Fei Luo and Sun Ri, to keep them in the competition." Fei Yinzi answered.

"Are you sure?" Cheng Sheng asked.

"Yes." Fei Yinzi nodded.

"Why?" Cheng Sheng asked. "Aren't you fellow competitors?" he said.

"We are all friends first before we became competitors." Fei Yinzi calmly answered. "Making friends with others is better than competing against each other. More importantly – " he said as he raised his head. " – the goal of the competition isn't to make enemies out of each other, but to make friends. Solidarity is the key so that hostility shouldn't breed." He explained.

Well said! The others thought and gave Fei Yinzi a like. Meanwhile, the audience loudly clapped, praising the contestants for having such a good sportsmanship! Sun Yu heaved a sigh of relief, and he also feel emotional.

"Reason accepted." Zheng Yi answered. "It was also stipulated that you can give your points to your fellow participants." he added.

Everyone sighed in relief.

"Then, participant Fei Yinzi, to whom do you want to give some of your points?" Zheng Yi asked.

Fei Yinzi smiled and looked at Fei Luo, who is in the same clan as him. "I want to give my two hundred and twenty-six points to Fei Luo." He said, referring to the points Fei Luo needed to reach the point threshold.

"Whatever." Cheng Sheng answered.

Fei Yinzi. "…" master, can't you give me some face? The image I created with that speech just now will be ruined! He thought and inwardly cried.

But, they all saw that Fei Yinzi's points in the leaderboard was deducted while Fei Luo's points increased.

"Thank you." Fei Luo cupped his hands and bowed at Fei Yinzi.

Fei Yinzi did the same. "You are welcome. I hope I can visit the Fei clan again someday." He said as he recalled his visit to the Fei clan before when he was sent by his master to the Shanliangde Sect to train.

Fei Huo, this time, has finally recovered his wits. "Er Zi! You are very welcome! Let us spar again!" he told him.

"Sure!" Fei Yinzi answered with a smile.

The atmosphere then turned warm.

"Cheng-shibo!" it was surprisingly Cui Xiao.

"Ehem… it is still me here…" Zheng Yi spoke.

"… oh." They muttered, and the atmosphere suddenly turned awkward.

But, Cui Xiao's expression didn't change. "Elder Zheng. I want to give my three-hundred and sixty points to Sun Ri!" she said.

Zheng Yi was shocked. "Are you sure? This amount of points…" he muttered. It was close to the first point threshold.

"I am sure!" Cui Xiao answered with a nod. Her points are near a thousand and half.

"If you want to…" Zheng Yi smiled as he transferred some of Cui Xiao's points to Sun Ri.

Sun Ri's tears fell and she ran to hug Cui Xiao and cried. Sun Yan felt his chest became warm as she watched his younger sister. Fortunately, Sun Ri gained friends in this competition.

"Elder Zheng…" Chen Wu spoke and was about to step forward to give some of his points to Sun Yan when Wu Lian stopped him. He looked at Wu Lian.

Wu Lian's expression didn't change as he walked past the bewildered Chen Wu. "Elder Zheng. Elder Cheng." He called. "I want to give one-hundred and eight points to Sun Yan." He said.

"You sure?" it was Cheng Sheng who spoke. "You will fall to the second place and will be replaced by Chen Wu in the first place." He said.

Wu Lian nodded without hesitation. "Yes. I am sure." He answered.

Cheng Sheng shrugged as he transferred Wu Lian's points to Sun Yan's points. With this, Sun Yan, Fei Luo and Sun Ri were saved from being eliminated in this round. Cheng Sheng and Zheng Yi then left, letting the participants resume sleeping.

"Wu Lian. Chen Wu. Er Zi. Cui Xiao." Sun Yan called as he, Fei Luo, Xi Bing and Fei Huo approached them. "We will remember this favor for our entire life. Thank you very much." He said and gave them a bow. 

Before, they looked inhibited as they all stick to their sect's rules.. Now, they learned the hard way how to be flexible, so they definitely won't repeat the same mistake again.
