"The people who envied him…" Cheng Sheng said. "… that includes a mage, right?" he said and looked at Shu Mu. "That's why his mage badge is like that." He looked at the mage badge on Xiao Le's waist.
Shu Mu felt guiltier, but also there's anger in his eyes. "Yes." he answered. "An elder of their sect has a daughter. She's also a mage. She got jealous of Xiao Le and humiliated him in front of everybody." He said. "That time, I already left when I noticed the sudden change of his fellow disciples' attitude towards him. I didn't expect for it to become worse because of that elder's daughter." He said. "That elder suggested to their sect leader to not make Xiao Le his apprentice because of his poor aptitude. Their sect leader is also bias. He wouldn't offend an elder just for a disciple's sake. Thus, Xiao Le was alienated by his sect. He can only secretly make talismans." He explained.
