" I succeeded? I succeeded! Jun and Junling seniors, we succeeded!"They smile widely looking at the cheeky Mengyang jumping around happily after seeing his name on those floating words.Abruptly, a disciple shouted furiously, startling the whole hall."Why are there only ten names there? We all found the relics? Why won't all of us get accepted?""It is because those relics that you have been collecting are all fake." A lean body with an average height disciple came out in front to hurl back to the disciple who was shouting out of nowhere."Huh? Who are you? What do you mean? The mission was to find the relics, how can you say this divine thing is fake?"The disciple then smiles smugly, approaching him to introduce himself." I am the guy who is not foolish enough to shout in the hall disrespecting the masters."He then made a bow to the disciple locking his eyes on him and said."I am also the guy you don't want to mess with.""Haoran, you promise not to make a scene...!""...Fine."Another young man that is called Cao Longwei tries to keep his comrade in his place to avoid a useless fight between those two disciples."Apologies for the scene, everyone.""Cao Longwei, I'm glad you can keep him calm. I'm even afraid that he is going to explode any second." Master Guang speaks up to ease the tension between them."Now, now. It was a good question there, why didn't all of you pass the mission? It is also right that the relics are fake. But why was it fake?"Master Guang continues his speaking until Feng Junling speaks up and offers that he can answer that question."With all due respect Master Guang I may know the answer to these confusions between the disciples here."Master Guang smiled softly and responded."I would like to hear your answer but don't you think there is someone that should help with this question?" Junling chuckled and he slowly turned himself to Song Jun looking at him with a hopeful look. Song Jun looks at him annoyed, shrugging himself to Junling."Really? I came here to find pretty girls, not answering some questions" he sighs."The relics are all fake because finding it wasn't the real mission. Don't you think it's too easy for us just to go into the woods and find the Divine Relics? The real relics that we have to obtain are inside the demons. I'm very sure every one of us has faced at least one demon inside the woods right? But you ran. Why? Because you already have what you want. You forget our purpose being an immortal disciple, never leave a single demon that comes upon you. You have to fight to get what you want, not just walk around and take what's on the street.""So the actual purpose for us to take this mission is actually, never run from your responsibilities? Mengyang trying to understand the whole mission's purpose."Exactly. Those who failed didn't want to fight the demons because they thought they already succeeded. So, why waste time fighting demons when they already have what they need?"Junling keeps on with the conversation.Zhang Haoran looks at the disciple that he despised earlier and teases him."So, for the one who thinks this is a selfish or trickery plan. They really should think twice because, in this world sometimes we need to find the implied meanings. Not all in front of our eyes are all true.The masters seem to be proud for their disciples to get the message that has been given. All those ten of them deserve to be accepted to the next mission. They have understood the meaning of being a true immortal disciple.*****A few days passed, and the plan to add 20 more disciples to join the front liners didn't go as planned. As it turns out there were only five members who succeeded in fighting the one and only Zhong Kui. The rest of the disciples who got eliminated were hundreds left. They all went back to their mountains; only the disciples of Huashan Mountain, the masters, the Five Brothers, and another ten juniors left. The Five Brothers are having a meeting in the study hall with the masters."I can't believe my little brother got accepted. I couldn't even believe he even took this seriously." Song Zhi chuckles while drinking tea that was set on his table.Master Rong replied to Song Zhi. "He didn't. Junling is the one who forces him to take this tournament seriously. But I'm not going to lie, I was actually impressed how those two always bicker, but never actually fight each other.As soon as Master Rong replied, Song Zhi silenced himself. "...I missed him, Master." Song Zhi expresses his low-spirited tone of voice."Who are you talki- oh... Him...?" Master Rong realises."It's been years, why hasn't he come back?Master Rong sighs. "You know he's not with us anymore.""I know but- I still can't believe he's gone... He's the strongest between us Five Brothers, why on earth would he..." Song Zhi shakes his head to let his thinking pass. "Nevermind, I'm just overthinking...""Who are you talking about?" Out of nowhere, Mengyang cuts off the conversation, with curiosity in his face."Huh? Nothing, just an old friend of mine~" Song Zhun just smiles it off to ease the tension."Oh... You missed your friend? My Master taught me, if one misses somebody, one should visit them. Why don't you visit your friend?"Song Zhun hesitated and looked at his master. Master Rong understood the look, and started to talk to the boy."Mengyang... how about you go practice with Junling and Jun? They are at the practice field, maybe you could enhance your skills? By the time you are at the level of The FIve Brothers, I can ask your master to give you a unique sword for you."Mengyang's eyes brightly turn up. "Really!? Alright! I'll go practice now!"Song Zhun and Master Rong smile at the bright scholar as he leaves the hall."Visit... if only we know where he is..." Jiafu said softly.Suddenly Master Yao cleared up his throat loudly to gain attention."That's enough, let's just focus on our competition. We agreed not to bring the past again in our meeting, correct? Now, let's decide how we should change the next quest for the ten disciples who succeeded.""Change...?" Tian Ji was confused."Why should we change the next quest, Master? Why can't we just stick to the original plan?"Master Guang responded with a soft tone in his voice."We masters may have over-expected our own disciples. We thought at least a hundred disciples would succeed in the first quest. But it seems, they are still immature and not ready to go on a battlefield. The original plan is suitable for hundreds of disciples but now there are only ten disciples who succeeded out of hundreds of them.""I have brought a few of my good students in medicine, they may not have succeeded in the quest, but they can treat any injuries for the next quest." Master Jian Jun continues.Tian Ji and Yichen look at each other puzzled."Why do we need more physicians in our competition, Master? Will the quest be harder for them?" YIchen asks sincerely to the master, in worry of his junior Mengyang."It is proven that most of the disciples who succeeded have passed or are still at their 4th level of Jian Ji. Most disciples have not yet reached the level, and most of them are still stuck at three or two. The one who passed the last quest, are now called as junior prodigies by the scholars. Not only from the mountains, all four seas and the earth also heard about them. So, the next quest is going to get harder by level, I think it is going to get harder than a decade ago, when you kids join the competition too."Master Rong explained further. She is worried too about the disciples for their next quest, because Master Yao is the one who planned for the change, she knows he's not going to take anything easy for those kids.All four of 'The Five Brothers' looked at each other worried about their juniors, hoping any of them would pass the competition. In hope, the last member will join them brothers to defeat the one and only devil.
