Chapter 1 The Sweeper

When the sky was bright, Yang Kai woke up, washed a little and walked out of the solitary hut with the broom at the corner.

Standing in the doorway, he stretched out, glanced at the white fish belly that appeared on the edge of the sky, closed his eyes and concentrated on enjoying a moment of peace, then opened his eyes and waved the broom in his hand, burying his head to clean the dust and fallen leaves on the ground.

Dressed in Tsing Yi, simple and clean, the seasoned clothes are plain and white to set off the youth by a few years. Yang Kai's waist is as straight as a javelin. Even if he is doing the lowest level of work, his face is meticulous. The movement was very steady, the hands holding the broom didn't use much force, and the body didn't even swing much. With only the rotation of the wrist, the broom came and went like an arm. The dust and debris accumulated on it moved magically, as if they had two legs.

Yang Kai is a trial disciple of the High Heaven Pavilion. He started to cultivate in the sect three years ago, but until now, he has only cultivated to the third-layer realm of body quenching. The disciples and brothers who entered with him have long since surpassed this stage, and each had the opportunity to worship the seniors in the entry, but he could only look at the ocean and sigh.

Three years of quenching the body and three layers, this kind of aptitude can no longer be described with ordinary words, it can be said to be extremely mediocre.

Helpless, Yang Kai can only take a sweeping job in the sect, while maintaining his livelihood and practicing hard.

The High Heaven Pavilion is a relatively special sect. This speciality is reflected in the cruel competition among its disciples. In this sect, those who are capable are promoted, and those who are incompetent are eliminated.

Other sects may still have some sibling friendships, but not in the High Heaven Pavilion! If you want to climb up, you can only be qualified by stepping on the shoulders of those so-called brothers and their blood.

The High Heaven Pavilion is strictly controlled, and it is famous throughout the Han Dynasty. Although it is not a super sect, the brutality of the battles of the disciples is second to none! Because of this, the disciples are all sturdy in martial arts, and few people dare to provoke them when they go out on the rivers and lakes.

There is a rule in Lingxiao Pavilion that disciples under the age of fourteen, no matter who they are, start from the beginning and have a trial period of three years. In the past three years, the sect was responsible for food, accommodation and travel, and the disciples only needed to cultivate. If you can break through the quenching period within three years, you will be qualified to be apprentices under the masters of the sect, and let these masters teach you how to practice. are quite different. To a certain extent, the rules of Lingxiao Pavilion are somewhat free.

And those who did not break through the quenching period within three years, either left the sect or were demoted to trial disciples.

The trial disciple is Yang Kai's current identity! It is also a disgrace within the High Heaven Pavilion!

Different from ordinary disciples, the living environment of trial disciples is more harsh, because at this stage, you have to take care of food, clothing, housing, and transportation yourself, and the sect will not waste any cultivation resources on you. And once you are demoted to a trial disciple, you will basically never have a chance in this life, unless your strength rises sharply in a short period of time, and another sect feels that you have capital to invest.

There are three thousand disciples in the entire High Heaven Pavilion, and how many are the trial disciples? But ten fingers! Yang Kai is fortunate to be one of them!

It is difficult for a trial disciple to survive in the High Heaven Pavilion. For example, Yang Kai’s hut is now built by himself, wood by wood. There are several holes in the small roof. Time to take care of it, as soon as it rains, it will be difficult to drain the water in the house. He bought his clothes, made his own food, and was responsible for everything.

Even the location of the hut was in the most remote and uninteresting place in the High Heaven Pavilion.

Such a bad treatment is difficult for ordinary people to bear. This is also the reason for the small number of High Heaven Pavilion trial disciples. Basically, the disciples who have not broken through the quenching realm after the trial period will choose to leave High Heaven Pavilion this way, but Yang Kai stayed.

He has been swept out of the house once, how can this be the case this time?

After being demoted to a trial disciple a few months ago, Yang Kai took a sweeping job in the sect to maintain his livelihood.

It can be said that Yang Kai is now both a trial disciple of High Heaven Pavilion and a sweeper of High Heaven Pavilion. But this sweeping work sometimes cannot maintain Yang Kai's food and clothing. From time to time, he is hungry and full, and the wind and cold are unattended, and his life is miserable. Even so, Yang Kai has never retreated. In his life, he has chosen this path for decades, and he has to keep going. It is not a man's act to give up halfway.

Yang Kai has a tenacity, the tenacity of not hitting the southern wall and not turning back!

The sky gradually lit up, and Yang Kai swept the ground for a while, and the place he passed was clean and dusty.

Although sweeping the floor didn't waste any strength, he moved for so long without eating or drinking early in the morning, and Yang Kai was sweating all over his body.

Two of the three meals are hungry, no matter who is in the living environment of Yang Kai, the physique will not be good.

There were gradually some High Heaven Pavilion disciples around them. All of these disciples woke up early in the morning. They didn't go to practice but surrounded Yang Kai. Many people looked at Yang Kai with great interest, and some people's eyes were very greedy. , as if Yang Kai is now a naked beauty, with a fragrant fragrance.

And among these High Heaven Pavilion disciples gathered around Yang Kai, there is also a tense and competitive atmosphere spreading, vigilantly looking at the apprentice brothers around them, all of them look bad.

Someone in the crowd couldn't bear it, and said softly: "So many people, it's a bit too much."

Immediately, someone replied: "You can leave if you think there are too many people, no one wants you to stay."

One sentence made that person shy, everyone knew why they gathered here, and they all knew why they were staring at Yang Kai, and now they were waiting for that moment to come. The time limit is coming soon, wouldn't it be a pity to leave now? If you can grab the top spot, today will be another harvest.

Yang Kai is naturally aware of Zhou's movements, but his expression has never changed. I have to go through this kind of battle every five days, six times a month. It's really nothing to make a fuss about, and seeing that the number of people in front of me is slightly less, it should be because they haven't all arrived yet.

So he has been sweeping the floor, no matter the people around him, sweeping all the way.

With the passage of time, more and more people gathered around Yang Kai, and it is roughly estimated that there are at least thirty or forty people.

Yang Kai stopped suddenly, just sat in the middle of the road, took a slow breath, and recovered the physical strength that he had consumed early in the morning.

Seeing this movement, everyone gathered around Yang Kai immediately dispersed, and the group surrounded him in the middle. The tense and competitive atmosphere suddenly rose to a new level, as if the air was no longer flowing.

No one sees who is not pleasing to the eye, but they all look forward to Yang Kai.

If people who don't know the truth see this scene, I'm afraid they will think that the person surrounded by the crowd is a superb master. Otherwise, why would such a large number of people be dispatched to deal with him? But in fact, Yang Kai is only a trial disciple of the third-layer body tempering state, and anyone present is more powerful than Yang Kai.

"Yang Kai, don't worry about it, and you will obediently tell me to wait and get down, and everyone will save time, right?" Some people looked at Yang Kai like this, and suddenly felt a little disdain.

What else can I do with a three-layer quenched body? Anyway, we are going to lose, it is better to be more straightforward, why do we have to live so long?

"Yeah, yeah, Yang Kai, please understand the feelings of the brothers, everyone is different from you, we have to practice after this game."

This said, it seems that Yang Kai should be quickly defeated by them, and it seems disrespectful to them that Yang Kai recovers his physical strength now.

Yang Kai turned a deaf ear, like an old monk entering meditation.

Time continued to pass, and suddenly, a melodious and empty bell rang. It was the morning bell of the High Heaven Pavilion. The bell was transmitted to everyone's ears, and the disciples gathered around Yang Kai were all shocked.

The bell rings nine times, the rising sun in the east rises, and it's a new day!

Everyone's breathing suddenly subsided, looking eagerly at Yang Kai who was surrounded by the middle, Yang Kai slowly got up, took the broom in his hand, and glanced at the circle of people around him.

"Choose me, Brother Yang!" Someone shouted loudly, "I'll strike lightly, so I promise you won't hurt!"

"Fart! Choose me, I will give you a good time, and it will be over with one punch. I will never waste everyone's time."

"Choose me..."

"Choose me..."

There was a lot of noise in the field, just like the vegetable vendors in the market were promoting the vegetables in their fields, and they were competing for the fresher vegetables.

"Yang Kai, you can't break the rules you set!" Someone reminded.

Yang Kai chuckled, and threw the broom he was holding into the sky, dozens of pairs of eyes looked up, full of anticipation waiting for the moment the broom landed, praying in his heart: "Choose me, choose me !"

Time seemed to slow down, and the broom made a few turns in mid-air, then fell down, bounced on the ground, and didn't move.

The front of the broom pointed to a burly young man in the crowd.

There was a sound of regret, full of resentment and unwillingness. On the contrary, the burly young man walked out of the crowd with a haha ​​laugh, clasped his fists at the crowd and said with a smile: "Brothers, UU Kanshu www.uukanshu.com I won this battle today, and I hope you guys don't be surprised."

"Grass, shit luck!" Someone was jealous.

"Why can't you choose me, I come every five days, it's been a full month, Yang Kai, did you do it on purpose?"

"Don't mention it, I've been here for three months, and I haven't been selected once!"

"Senior brother, you are worse than me."

"It's neither miserable nor miserable, just watch a good show." The two brothers looked at each other and smiled knowingly.

In the field, the others have dispersed, leaving only Yang Kai and the burly young man looking at each other.

"Trial disciple Yang Kai, three layers of body quenching!" Yang Kai looked at the other party and said.

"Ordinary disciple Zhou Dingjun, five layers of body tempering!" The burly young man reported to his family.

The disciples of the High Heaven Pavilion are also divided into five levels. From the bottom to the top, there are five levels: trial disciples, ordinary disciples, subordinate disciples, elite disciples, and core disciples. Zhou Dingjun said that he was an ordinary disciple, that is, he had not yet joined the masters of the sect and had not received the guidance of a good teacher. If one breaks through the quenching period and joins the masters of the sect, then he is a higher-level disciple. No matter how high the elite disciples are, they are all outstanding, and they are selected from the disciples below.

The core disciples are the hope of the generation of Your Excellency Ling Xiao, and Zong Nei has cultivated these people as future successors.

Sen Ran's hierarchical system of disciples seems inhumane, but it can well stimulate the bloody and competitive consciousness of young people, which is also the foundation of the cruel system of High Heaven Pavilion.

The root cause of Yang Kai being scrambled by countless people is another rule of High Heaven Pavilion, the rule of challenge.
