The Scum Is A ***

Chapter 655 – The Scum Is Sloppy

If the sect leaders and elders just heard Cheng Sheng's internal monologue, they would have spat and become furious. What not blame you? Isn't xiao Ling your sword spirit?! And isn't xiao Bao your lover's sword spirit?! So, you are the one to blame!

'they must have come up with a new idea'?! They thought as they looked at Fei Yin in disbelief. Why don't you directly tell us that your sword spirits are up to mischief again?! They thought and sighed as they resumed watching the competition while cheering for their respective disciples in their hearts.

"Hey! Look! Some participants are about to clash!" someone from the audience exclaimed and pointed.

Everyone turned and they were surprised to see Jing De and Jing Xu, and Tang Li and Li Yan. Their eyes immediately brightened since this would be the first time that these two pairs would fight! They didn't witness it in the second stage of the competition before since Jing De and Jing Xu fought in the pairs arena while Tang Li and Li Yan fought in the singles' arena.

Also, the Zunjingde Sect, Huakai Sect and Huli Sect have allied with the Xinfaxian Sect and the Youxiwang Sect since the beginning of the third stage of the competition, so there were no opportunities for these two pairs to fight! It was now where everyone are scrambling for points by killing the demons!

As expected, not a few seconds later and the two pairs immediately fought after they saw two demons not far from them. In order to prevent the other side from killing the demons, each impeded the other's way.

"It is starting! It is starting!" the audience exclaimed in excitement when they saw that Jing De and Jing Xu, and Tang Li and Li Yan began to fight!

The two pairs fought one against one with Jing De facing off against Li Yan while Jing Xu facing off against Tang Li.

Jing Rui's brows knitted after he watched the fight after a few minutes. "Jing De will lose." He said when he saw that Jing De is perspiring more than he should when facing against Li Yan.

Jing Cheng nodded in agreement. "It is a bad idea for him to fight against Li Yan, who is clever." He said.

Jing Bai's and Jing Hei's lips twitched when they heard the implication of Jing Cheng's words.

"En." Jing Kang nodded as he watched Jing De and Li Yan face off. "He lacks brain cells." He said.

Jing Bai and Jing Hei. "…" can't you at least cheer your own disciple?! They thought and helplessly sighed, feeling pity towards Jing De.

"It should have been Jing Xu who fought Li Yan." Jing Rui said.

"But, Tang Li's and Jing Xu's cultivation level is equal." Jing Bai said.

"At least Jing De would have a chance in winning since Tang Li's IQ is equal to Jing De's." Jing Kang said.

Jing Hei. "… hehe." He forced a laugh. These people are really harsh even towards their own disciple… he thought, then shook his head. No. They are even harsher towards their own people! He thought and placed a palm on his face. "Damn Jing De! What the hell is this sloppy fighting!" he cursed.

Jing Xu saw that Jing De was about to lose and he got distracted. Tang Li, although sometimes a fool, definitely wouldn't be this stupid to let the opportunity slip by! Tang Li immediately blocked Jing Xu's way when Jing Xu tried to help Jing De. Then, they both began a new round of exchanging blows while Jing De persevered after he saw that Jing Xu was blocked by Tang Li and is unable to help him.

Suddenly, in the midst of a heated battle, a figure flashed by and killed one of the two demons! Jing De, Jing Xu, Tang Li and Li Yan were dumbfounded. Who did it?! They thought and looked at each other, then suddenly stopped fighting.

"A mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind!" the sect leaders and elders exclaimed in surprise. They looked at the four's dumbfounded expression as they watched the remaining demon escaped.

"Damn it!" Jing De can't help but curse. "Who was it?!" he asked. Everything happened too fast that they didn't notice anything.

"It was just one person earlier… could it be Xi He?" Jing Xu frowned.

(Xi He who was busy fighting against Wu Tie and Jin Yu: I won't carry this black pot (blame)!)

Sun Yu's expression turned ugly. "Hey! Don't you dare frame my disciple!" he said.

Everyone looked at Sun Yu in pity since they also saw Xi He is in another direction and is currently fighting, too.

"Did anyone see who was it?" Ling Xi asked as he looked at the others.

"No… I was busy watching our disciples." They answered.

That's right. They were all too engrossed in watching the series of fights breaking out as the participants fought over the demons that they didn't notice anything else happening behind the scenes as someone was trying to sneakily steal some points from the others.

"Who the hell was it?!" Jing Hei frowned as he watched each participant. "Our disciples' efforts were in vain!" he said.

Tang Teng and Li Nanzi nodded in agreement. They also can't help but feel frustrated since their disciples were made to look like fools.

"Aiyo! Enemies met on a narrow road! Xi Bing and Fei Huo met Su Mi and Su Yi!" the audience exclaimed when they saw the four people.

"Who do you think will win?" someone asked.

"Xi Bing and Fei Huo should have a higher chance to win since Xi Bing's strength is on par with Sun Yan's and Fei Luo's." somebody answered.

"Hey! Don't underestimate Su Mi! Her fighting power is very strong and aggressive like Wen Yan's and Zhu Xi's! Not to mention that there is also a mage Su Yi! His spells are to be reckon with!" someone can't help but speak.

"Anyway, these fights are more exciting than the second stage! After all, all of the participants in the third stage are winners, strong!" someone said and cheered loudly.

Indeed, even if Xi Bing is stronger than Su Mi, but so long as Su Mi and Su Yi would fight two against two, Xi Bing and Fei Huo would be at a disadvantage since they are not as tacit as the siblings of the Xinfaxian Sect! Not to mention that although Fei Huo is a sword cultivator, but Su Yi's spells made him feel uncomfortable after Su Yi disrupted his attacks and hit him accurately every time.

Xi Bing saw this and naturally he can't let Fei Huo be bullied so he attacked Su Yi! How can Su Mi just let someone hit her younger brother aside from her? Thus, Su Mi preempted Xi Bing. Not to mention that Su Yi isn't a pushover either and definitely can bite, very hard, thus the pressure on Xi Bing doubled. Fortunately, Fei Huo isn't stupid and helped Xi Bing, but it was useless since he can't even defeat a mage.

Fortunately, Fei Luo's radar of Fei Huo is strong and he and Sun Yan arrived to help Xi Bing and Fei Huo. How can Su Mi and Su Yi continue? They immediately fled, even faster than rabbits! Sun Yan wanted to chase the two, but Su Mi and Su Yi surprisingly disappeared in an instant! Everyone was pleasantly surprised, and only after did they find out that these siblings were actually acting as scouts of their sect! In short, they are both memorizing the terrain and marking the places were there were demons, at the same time they are also marking where the other participants were!

"This is… too cunning… ehem, smart!" Shan Lu immediately changed his wording when he saw that the Xinfaxian Sect elders glared at him. "Who… who came up with this idea among the Xinfaxian Sect disciples?" he asked.

"It should be Wen Yan?" Qian Tian answered. After all, Wen Yan is the eldest disciple of the Xinfaxian Sect among the participants and he is acting as their elder brother. Most of the time, he is their leader.

"No." Zhu Xi answered as he shook his head. "Wen Yan doesn't plan this meticulously." He told them.

That's right! They now recalled that Wen Yan is a straightforward person. He is always direct with his plans and definitely won't use this kind of time-consuming tactic.

"Su Yi?" Xi Xing tried to guess.

Li Tian smiled. "No. Su Yi is clever, but he doesn't like thinking of tactics. He would rather spend his brain cells on discovering new spells." He explained.

"Then, Er Zi?" Sun Yi asked.

"No." Fei Yin shook his head. "He isn't this smart." He told them.

Everyone grimaced. "…" is this okay to say about your nephew? They thought. "Then, who is it?" they asked.

"I have a requirement when I teach someone in every area, for example, tactics." Cheng Sheng spoke. "They have to be proficient in chess if they want to learn tactics from me, since coming up with tactics is like playing chess. You have to use every piece that you have very well.." He explained.
