Chapter 80 - Second Challenge
Zhao Luo got up and sat on his bed.
After another night of training tirelessly in his Mental World with his apparitions, Zhao Luo had confirmed one thing.
"Going into the Dark space while lying on my back is way better and comfortable than going there while sitting in the lotus position."
Zhao Luo said while rubbing his chin with his index finger and thumb.
After which Zhao Luo got up and started getting ready.
"I need to complete the three missions as soon as I can."
Zhao Luo said as he tapped his robe like brushing away the night dew with his palm.
"Only then will I advance to the outer hall."
Zhao Luo already had a clear goal in front of him.
These small goals will eventually lead him to the end of his journey but he didn't want to burden himself by thinking of the far future. Just working for the near future was enough for him.
Zhao Luo washed his face as he and swiped his face with his hand clearing away the remaining moisture with his hand.
If the female disciples could see Zhao Luo who was a little wet, they would have lost their lives to the handsome looks of this devil. But fortunately for them, they weren't lucky enough to see this work of art.
Zhao Luo after getting ready got out of his room thus leaving his hut.
The first thing he saw after coming out was a familiar face.
"Wu Yang!"
Zhao Luo called as he could see Wu Yang walking in a circle outside of his Hut.
"What are you doing here?"
Zhao Luo asked him as Zhao Luo was thinking of meeting Wu Yang and the others in the training area.
"I was waiting for you. You sure sleep a lot."
Wu Yang said jokingly.
Zhao Luo didn't mind Wu Yang's attitude. Instead, he just smiled and walked towards Wu Yang.
'He will freak out if he knew that I was training the whole night.'
Zhao Luo chuckled while thinking about Wu Yang's reaction if he told him the truth.
"Brother."
Yan interrupted them as she grabbed Zhao Luo's hands.
As Zhao Luo's cold hands came in contact with Yan's warm hands, his face turned red.
"Hahaha."
Yan laughed as she let go of his hand.
The three started walking towards the exit of the 'Hut' area.
Most of the way, it was just Yan and Wu Yang bickering with each other.
Zhao Luo felt as if he suddenly spawned with two wives.
The reason behind this disastrous thought was because Yan and Wu Yang were arguing while the objective behind their arguing was Zhao Luo.
Everything started when Wu Yang asked a question.
"Yan, you like Zhao Luo. Tell me I'm right."
Wi Yang said with a smirk. It was obvious with all the affection that Yan was showering towards Zhao Luo.
Yan looked at Wu Yang with anger in her eyes.
She was pretending to be a guy but she couldn't just tell that to everyone.
Only three people knew the secret and they were Zhao Luo, Brother Sang, and Elder Bo who had already deducted the identity of Yan when they had visited his shop.
'Even if I like Zhao Luo while being a guy what does that have to do with this guy?'
Yan thought as she didn't answer Wu Yang's question.
"Haha, so I am right."
Wu Yang said as he smirked.
"Two male disciples having a romantic feeling is a taboo in the Xin Sect as it will disrupt the natural order of Yin and Yang."
Wu Yang told Yan as Yan became even angrier.
It wasn't because of the rule of the sect and the Yin and Yang stuff. She just didn't like how Wu Yang was putting his nose between her and Zhao Luo who she liked.
Wu Yang was just messing around with Yan put his arms over his chest while holding his shoulder with his hands acting like a tsundere.
"That doesn't mean you can just get a third male disciple to get around the Sect's rule. Naughty Boy."
Wu Yang was enjoying himself while teasing Yan who was like a beautiful younger brother type to him.
"You vile creature..."
Yan said as her anger exploded and they started arguing with each other.
Zhao Luo who was in the middle of this verbal battle between Wu Yang and Yan felt like he was growing old at a rapid age.
'Please someone make them stop.'
Zhao Luo wished.
As though there was a God was watching over him and listening to his pleas.
"Brother Zhao Luo."
Feng Mei came outside of her hut with her hair loose as she was still getting ready but because of the ruckus caused by Yan and Wu Yang she rushed outside to see Zhao Luo.
"Greetings Brothers."
Feng Mei greeted them as she gently bowed her head in front of the three.
Then she grabbed Zhao Luo's hand cutely.
Her presence was so bright and cute that Yan and Wu Yang forgot about what they were arguing over and had a smile on their faces.
Just like this Zhao Luo with Yan, Feng Mei and Wu Yang went towards the Dining Hall.
Even though Zhao Luo didn't get to feel hunger and the annoying feeling of carving different kinds of foods along with it, he still couldn't forget the various type of meats in the Dining Hall.
'Hmm.'
Zhao Luo was already close to drooling.
As Zhao Luo's group reached the Dining Hall all of the disciples around it were rushing towards the training area while shouting.
"What? The Moonstone Ring Platform is open today?"
One of the disciples that had just exited the Dining Hall with food in his mouth that he was chewing said with a questioning tone.
"What's the moonstone platform?"
Zhao Luo asked Wu Yang.
"It's one of the three rings with the instruments. Also the challenge you will be facing today."
Wu Yang said with a smile as if it wasn't a big issue.
It was the second challenge for Zhao Luo in the trainee hall that only trainee disciples could complete.
Also the first of the 'remaining three missions' that Zhao Luo wanted to complete so he could get the reward from the sect.
"Hah, why couldn't you tell me earlier?"
Zhao Luo had his palm on his forehead as he questioned Wu Yang's intelligence.
Zhao Luo then turned around and followed the disciple who had rushed out of the dining hall just a little earlier.
Wu Yang, Feng Mei, and Yan also moved with Zhao Luo to the training area.
