　　Chapter 18 - Part 2

　　        The original host was just a little guard outside of Qin s.h.i.+tian's palace who did odd jobs at that time. Now that there's the chance to become Qin s.h.i.+tian's personal devil guard, Gu Bai was overjoyed.

　　"Thank, thank sect master! Ah Jiu will absolutely do his best!"

　　"You can't talk nimbly, are you a stutterer?"

　　Seeing him stuttering from excitement during both times when he spoke, Qin s.h.i.+tian has never seen such impulsive and youthful face in the sect before.

　　    Those who say they pledge loyalty to him are many, but to dare look at him with eyes reflecting only his own silhouette, this kind of dedication while pledging loyalty without a trace of fear, it's really refres.h.i.+ng.

　　Qin s.h.i.+tian suddenly felt that it was amusing and he couldn't help but laughingly joked.

　　"I……"

　　Gu Bai didn't know what to answer in order to please him and his face immediately turned red, revealing a ineloquent appearance. The eyes staring at him wavered slightly, imprinting his entire figure into his mind.

　　This kind of focused gaze will always make people feel happy and pleasant, especially Qin s.h.i.+tian who is always feared everyone. At least Gu Bai doesn't carry any feeling of disgust at this moment. Even the slightly gloomy mood due to Mo Haige just now improved a bit. He eased his tone and once again ordered the compet.i.tion to start.

　　"Alright, start the compet.i.tion...."

　　According to common practice, this is only a test for new disciples and there's no need to trouble the sect leader over such a small matter.

　　However, new disciples are the fresh blood* of the sect, and Qin s.h.i.+tian attach great importance to it. As a result, he will personally come watch the match and give everyone encouragement every year. It's also a method to win over people.

　　*new members admitted to a group, especially as an invigorating force.

　　He strode over and sat in the seat of honor at the front. Mo Haige stood three meters away from him, still alienating, and his delicate face was cold.

　　The alienation is clearly usual like in the past, but don't know if it's because there's Gu Bai to compare with now, Qin s.h.i.+tian's heart was a little dejected. Restraining himself, he couldn't help but turn his head and direct his sight to the drill ground, concentrating on the compet.i.tion to divert his attention.

　　Gu Bai also had to put all his attention to the ring when the compet.i.tion started.

　　        Mozong's compet.i.tion isn't peaceful like the righteous path. At the end of the day, almost every battle is a matter of life and death. If you don’t beat the opponent to the point where he can't fight back, it will never end. To die in the ring is a common occurrence.

　　The b.l.o.o.d.y cruelty of this world, Gu Bai already got used to it when he was in the valley. Maybe what those people said in his previous life is true, he really is heartless. So when he was stained by blood in the valley, he didn’t feel the fear of murdering for the first time.

　　His first opponent is a big boy with a st.u.r.dy body and should be about the same age as him, but his figure is more than a head taller than him.

　　This can't blame the other party for being born tall and strong. Ah Jiu's body shape is the same as Lu Rongqing in his past life, it's relatively pet.i.te and thin. The appearance isn't more outstanding than Lu Rongqing and Mo Haige, but he's delicate and pretty, looking just like a little sheep.

　　But everyone in Mozong knows that there won't be a sheep in Mozong, so the other party didn't underestimate him and rushed toward him with a machete and a face full of viciousness, obviously wanting to kill him in one fell swoop.
