My Disciples Are All Villains

Chapter 973: Enhanced Peak Trial Card

“Apprenticeship? What’s this new thing?”

Lu Zhou looked at the system interface. The mission for disciplining and educating Yu Zhenghai was flashing non-stop.

Next to it, it was written: “Disciples will provide you with higher rewards after completing the apprenticeships.”

As the saying went, ‘A master for a day, a father for life. It seemed like even if his disciples completed their apprenticeships and left him, things would not change much. He had assumed he would not be able to gain any more rewards once his disciples left him.

“Complete the apprenticeship.”

“Ding! Your disciple, Yu Zhenghai, has successfully completed his apprenticeship.”

“Ding! You’re rewarded with a random card. When you use this card, a rare item will be randomly awarded to you.”

“Ding! After Yu Zhenghai completed his apprenticeship, he can now establish a sect and accept disciples. Maximum number of disciples: 3.”

“Ding! You will no longer receive points for teaching Yu Zhenghai.”

“Ding! You must confirm this with Yu Zhenghai in person. Currently, this only takes effect in the system.”

Lu Zhou found the series of notifications acceptable and within his expectations. After completing the apprenticeships and leaving their master, there was no longer a need for the master to teach the disciples. Moreover, to be honest, the merit points he obtained from Yu Zhenghai during Yu Zhenghai’s time as his disciples were pitifully low.

He also noticed that the mission to discipline and educate Yu Zhenghai had disappeared.

After a moment, a thought appeared in his mind. “Can I obtain merit points through my granddisciples?”

He thought about Si Wuya who had Li Yunzheng as his student. If Si Wuya completed his apprenticeship, did it mean that he would not be able to obtain points from Li Yunzheng anymore? It would be a loss if that was the case.

This was similar to how things worked on earth. After one finished one’s apprenticeship, one would be able to enter society. At that time, one would be qualified to establish a company, or in this case, sect. As for whether one was willing or not was another matter.

Following that, Lu Zhou looked at the random card he was given.

“Use.”

“Ding! Obtained a Ji Tiandao’s Peak Trial Card and an advanced enhanced Reversal Card.”

“…”

A Deadly Strike Card was sold for 32,000 merit points now. His rewards were definitely more than 30,000 merit points. With these rewards, he did not have to risk increasing the price if he bought a Deadly Strike Card.

“Maybe I should let all my disciples leave me…”

On second thought, it was not easy to complete one’s apprenticeship. Even with their Great Void Seeds, they had successfully formed their Thousand Realms Whirling avatar before they could complete their apprenticeship.

Lu Zhou looked at one of the cars. “Advanced enhanced Reversal Card? An ordinary Reversal Card reverses 1,000 days. How many days will it be since it’s enhanced?”

He did not think too much and decided to use the card.

Soon enough, vitality energy began to gather above the Evil Sky Pavilion.

…

Meanwhile, Shen Xi who was still imparting his knowledge to the others in the southern pavilion suddenly sensed a strong fluctuation of vitality energy.

The Nine-leaf cultivators from the various sects looked up as well.

The cloud rolled in, and the wind picked up speed as energy surged violently.

Pan Zhong, who was standing nearby, said with a smile, “Guardian Shen, please continue…”

“Oh, that’s right. Thank you for your reminder, Brother Pan.” Shen Xi recalled Pan Zhong had told him to regard everything that happened in the Evil Sky Pavilion as normal. He must learn from his mistakes. Fear still lingered in his heart from the last palm strike. In fact, his arms were still a little sore and numb.

…

The surging vitality energy did not last long.

Lu Zhou looked at his lifespan.

Remaining lifespan: 652,402 days (1787 years in which 263 years are obtained from Reversal Cards.

“10,000 Days?” The enhanced Reversal Card had reversed a lot of his years compared to the ordinary Reversal Card!

Lu Zhou rose to his feet and walked around the hall in the eastern pavilion. His body felt lighter, and his condition was better as well. The wrinkles on his hands had decreased significantly as well.

Lu Zhou nodded his head in satisfaction. “I’m one step closer to being young.”

Currently, he had two Peak Trial Cards. He only needed one more to synthesize them.

“Lucky draw.”

“Ding! Used 50 merit points and 100 luck points. Obtained: Reversal Card x5.”

“…”

…

Meanwhile, in the red lotus domain’s Southern Kingdom.

Yu Zhenghai looked at his Thousand Realms Whirling avatar with an expression of relief on his face. It was as though a huge weight had been removed from his shoulders. After suffering for several days, he finally succeeded in forming the Thousand Realms Whirling avatar. Only he himself knew how difficult it was.

Following that, he turned around and said to Yu Shangrong, “Second Junior Brother, look! The Thousand Realms Whirling avatar.”

The Birth Disk on the astrolabe, which hung at the back of the avatar, flashed every time the life heart in the Birth Palace flashed. The karmic fire burned magnificently around the Ten-leaf lotus.

Yu Shangrong nodded. “Congratulations!”

Yu Zhenghai put away his Thousand Realms Whirling avatar and asked, “How’s your situation?”

“It’s alright.”

“That’s good.”

Yu Shangrong said, “We still have one more life heart. Eldest Senior Brother, you might as well activate your second Birth Chart now.”

Yu Zhenghai shook his head and said, “No. You can have this life heart. I’ve only activated my Birth Chart so I need to wait for it to stabilize anyway. Progressing too fast isn’t always good.”

“I’ll just hold onto it for now.”

“Alright.”

The duo looked south in unison.

“The whiteguards went south previously since the agreement with the Black Tower Council has been broken. We should seize the opportunity to have a look around and see if we can find what master needs.”

“That’s what I’m thinking as well.”

The duo did not waste time and rushed toward the south.

…

After an hour.

Yu Shangrong and Yu Zhenghai arrived at another ruin. Both of them hovered in the air as they looked at the towering but dilapidated building with vines crawling all over them. Bones could be seen in piles on the ground.

This ancient city clearly carried the mark of war. This place should be the Southern Kingdom’s royal capital. The glories of the past could no longer be seen; only a run-down city remained.

At this moment, Yu Zhenghai said, “There are movements ahead. Let’s have a look.”

The duo flew forward.

“The map that master gave us marked this place as well.”

When they arrived above an old palace, they saw a formation flag on the ground that was about 300 meters tall.

The white formation flag fluttered in the wind and was rather difficult to see from afar. Its pole was very thin as well.

When the duo drew closer, they saw patterns and inscriptions on the poles that flickered faintly with light.

“This is from the White Tower Council. We better hide…”

The two rushed into the palace and hid.

After waiting a while, as expected, three white guards appeared and moved to stand around the formation flag.

“Captain, now that we’ve set up the flag formation, I believe we’ll be able to take down this special Birth Chart Beast.”

The captain of the whiteguards nodded and said, “This Birth Chart Beast isn’t simple. It’s rather intelligent as well. Tian Ming, you stay here to look after the formation flag. The judge will definitely come within a month. This is an important matter, and we can’t afford to make any mistakes. Watch out for the people from the Black Tower Council. If there’s anything, report immediately.”

“Understood.”

Soon after, two of the whiteguards left.

Yu Shangrong and Yu Zhenghai were intrigued.

“Special Birth Chart Beast?” Yu Shangrong said to Yu Zhenghai through voice transmission to avoid detection by the white guard.

Alas, as soon as Yu Shangrong spoke through voice transmission, the flag began to flap violently.

“Who is it?”

The flag seemed to be pointing in the direction of the palace.

The whiteguard was very cautious; he did not rush into the palace immediately. Instead, he manifested an energy sword in his hand.

Upon seeing this, Yu Zhenghai shook his head helplessly. “Well, I suppose this is inevitable.” He tapped his toes and flew out of the palace at top speed.

The duo, one on the left and one on the right, flew at a low altitude.

Upon seeing the duo, the whiteguard asked with a frown on his face, “Who are you?”

Yu Shangrong replied with a smile, “I’m Yu Shangrong from the Evil Sky Pavilion. Sorry for disturbing you.”

Yu Shangrong smiled and said, “I’m Yu Shangrong.”

Yu Zhenghai. “…”

It would have sounded forced and awkward if Yu Zhenghai were to say these polite words. However, they seemed very natural coming out of Yu Shangrong’s mouth.

“The Evil Sky Pavilion?” The matters between the Evil Sky Pavilion, the White Tower Council, and the Black Tower Council were mostly confidential. Therefore, Tian Ming, the whiteguard, did not know about the Evil Sky Pavilion. In his opinion, as long as it was not the Black Tower Council, everything would be fine. Therefore, he was rather at ease as he asked indifferently, “Why are both of you here?”

“We’re here to look for something.”

Upon hearing this, Tian Ming raised his guard slightly. “What is it?”

“I’m sorry, this is related to the privacy of my master. I have no comment,” Yu Shangrong said with a straight face.

“…”

After thinking for a moment, Tian Ming said, “Please leave.”

Yu Shangrong shook his head slightly. “I don’t think you understand what I said. The thing we’re looking for is here. If we leave, how are we going to find it?”

Tian Ming, the whiteguard, said, “This isn’t a place you should come to…”

Yu Zhenghai raised his voice slightly and said, “Bullsh*t! The Southern Kingdom has fallen to disrepair. Just because you say we shouldn’t be here, we must listen to you?”

Tian Ming frowned and said, “This is a rule of the White Tower Council. Haven’t you heard of the White Tower Council?”

“I have,” Yu Zhenghai nodded and said, “Unfortunately, you haven’t heard of the Evil Sky Pavilion. In this world, those who dare to oppose my master never have a good ending.”

“…”

Yu Zhenghai who had tasted the sweetness of using his master’s name did not hesitate to bring up his master again.

Alas, not everyone was as astute and tactful as Xiao Yunhe.

Tian Ming shook his head and raised his hand to grab the pole of the formation flag next to him.

In just an instant, a streak of white light shot out of the formation flag.

Under the illumination of the white light, Tian Ming saw the Yu Shangrong and Yu Zhenghai’s miniature avatars that had appeared by their sides. Upon seeing the Ten-leaf avatar and the new Thousand Realms Whirling avatar, he felt greatly relieved. Then, he said, “Both of you are quite brave? How dare you come to the Southern Kingdom with this kind of cultivation base? Aren’t you afraid of being torn apart by Birth Chart Beasts?”
