Chapter 4 - CHAPTER 4: The Dao of betting

Ounyu Rein completed his role in giving instructions to crowd and handed over to the young man besides him, Lu Chong.

" That's all for the test rules and regulations. Never should you think about killing or crippling your fellow students. All conflicts will be solved through a fair duel after the two parties sign a contract. That also includes a life-and-death agreement. With that, I will officially hand over to Elder Lu."

Prior to that, the young man besides Elder Ounyu turned his gaze towards the congregation before him. His expression was nonchalant and void of emotion.

" Many of you have come from different places and backgrounds altogether. But one thing is certain. Despite your backgrounds, you are standing on the same platform to partake in this test. Anyone who makes it through will become a student of the academy. So regardless of what you are, all I request of is to try your best and make it through up to the finish line. It is true that many of you will not make it to the finish line. But, the chance is before you so clamp yourself onto it." his remarks made many clench their fists in anticipation. Looking at the fighting spirits before him, Elder Lu shook his head lightly.

" Now I request all those going to take part into the test to head towards the Martial Hall. Everyone will have to go through the Martial root test. Please follow me."

" Little Fu, go ahead. We shall be waiting for your good news." remarked Gu Xiao.

" We trust you. You can do it." Big brother added.

Luo Dao moved forward and gently patted on his shoulder and moved back. His heart couldn't help but twitch a little.

" Okay! I'll get going." He then turned around only to pump into someone.

Ouch! They both screamed beneath their breath.

" Aaa...! sorry! I never meant it. Aaa...I hope you don't mind." Futian hurriedly said.

An innocent young pretty face of a female came into his sight. Her face was fair with blue eyes and a nice nose. Her lips were pink and quite tempting. She was a beauty. Ye Futian couldn't help but swallow hard.

" Hey you! Don't you have eyes? Why do just move without seeing where you are going? Don't you know you could have hurt Young Miss?..." the young girl besides her shouted.

" Xiaomo that's enough."

" Yes Young Miss." the young girl respectfully backed off with a hint of displeasure on her face. The pretty girl turned towards Ye Futian and looked at the latter with a smile.

" Am sorry! I apologise on her behalf. She shouldn't have spoken to you in such a way. I hope you don't mind."

" No.!No..! Actually, it should have been me apologising. Sorry for bumping into you. Well it was not intentional. I hope you don't mind."

" Oh no! it's actually fine with me."

" Thanks for understanding."

" Let's catch up with the rest."

" Okay!" The trio then made their way towards the hall.

Not too long a large hall came into the sight of everyone. A it's entrance were too large heads of tigers and a stair case that led towards the inner compartment.

" Seeing that everyone is here, let's begin with the Martial root test. Everyone will leave a drop of blood on the Martial root orb. After that, one will place his palm the orb and try to immerse his conscious into it."

" The circles show the tier of your Martial root. If one halo lights then, it will mean it a Human tier Martial root. If two halos lights, then it is an Earth tier and lastly if they are three then it is heavenly tier. Anyone with a heavenly tier will automatically be qualified to be a core disciple of the sect." Elder Lu calmly spoke.

" Has everyone understood?"

" Yes!" the group replied.

" Okay, I'll have to ask you to step forward and test your Martial roots.Anyone without a Human Orange is bound not to continue with the enrollment test."

Slowly the congregation began testing their Martial roots. A few shone out of the congregation.

" Human tier Green! Failed".

" Human tier Red! Passed!"

" Human tier Blue! Failed!

" Human tier Green! Failed!

" Human tier Vi..o..let! Passed!" Elder Lu's voice contained a stunned expression.

" Wow ! What a genius!"

" Right! What is his name?"

" He resembles Mu Ling."

" You mean Mu Ling the great genius of the Mu Clan."

" No wonder! It's him!"

" You know him?"

" Of course! The second uncle of the aunt of my mother's cousin works as a guard in the Mu Clan."

The emergence of a violent Martial root caused right a stir among the crowd. Discussions broke out time and again.

" Let's continue" the test commenced once again.

" Human tier Red, Pass!"

" Human tier Yellow! Fail!

" Human tier Orange! Pass!

Soon a duo walked toward the Martial root orb and placed their palms on it.

" Ear..th t.ie...r Green!" Elder Lu's shook was more to it this time.

" Earth tier... Yellow! Pass!"

" You see... I won you. So pay up!Two gold coins!" The fatty one Carrying a bow in this back said joyously.

The slim one who yielded a spear smiled back before saying

" Well , the elder never mentioned that you passed. He just said Ear..th t.ie...r Green. And blah he stopped there." trying to imitate Elder Lu.

" Indeed"the fatty nodded before turning towards Elder Lu.

" " Elder Lu.

" " The group

" " Ye Futian.

It's okay to be geniuses. That's fine with us.

You betted on that fact. That's fine with us too.

But do you really need to expose to us that you are aware of this fact.

Even turning to the Elder to clarify even when you are aware of the fact that you have passed.

Are you two really okay?

The crowd was at loss of words.

One word for the duo... Monsters!

" Aaa...Elder Lu! I do know that am quite handsome." the fatty said while brushing his hair.

Handsome your head!

Does anyone need to take you if your really handsome.

Turn around and look into the mirror you pig head.

" So stop admiring me and tell me if I have passed or not."

Passed your foot!

Calming himself down, Elder Lu nodded his head to affirm that the latter had passed.
