Chapter 392 The Reasonable Disciple Of ckrock Peak (Part Two)


    Zen had memorized them and could repeat them verbatim.


    Master Wen smiled back at him but instantly turned into a serious face. "Don''t forget that you hit


    ckrock Peak''s disciple Mack in the previous round. They must be holding the grudge against you. I


    am afraid Dick is nning to take revenge on you. Please pay attention to your safety," he reminded.


    However, his concern did not shake Zen''s resolution even the slightest. Instead, he clenched his fists


    hard with determination and said, "Master Wen, don''t worry about me at all. No matter what, I will try


    my best. I may end up being defeated, but it is still better than giving up."


    Seeing Zen this determined, Master Wen did not dissuade him any longer. He nodded his head in


    consent.


    Although Zen had improved a lot in his training, Master Wen could not help but feel worried that Zen''s


    stubbornness would do him more harm than good. After all, Dick was the most powerful disciple that


    Zen would be fighting against. He did not want Zen to invest his all into this onepetition and end up


    losing his motivation for further cultivation. For Master Wen, there was no need for Zen to rush.


    On the other hand, he could not persuade Zen to give up either. However, he had his reservations


    about thispetition. It was unbelievable to him that Zen could defeat those personal disciples and


    the high-grade ones.


    ''He might not be the strongest, but he is absolutely the most persistent, '' Master Wen pondered. After


    going through manypetitions, Master Wen knew the pattern clearer than anyone else that the final


    winner would be decided not only by his barren strength but also his persistence and resolve. If a


    disciple had great strength and unshakeable resolution, he would be unbeatable.


    "I''m sorry for worrying too much. You''re right. One must absolutely try his best whatever the oue


    will be. And I believe that you will not disappoint yourself," Master Wen encouraged Zen.


    Zen nodded and smiled. He finally looked at the stage with his eyes zing with determination and


    walked up to it.


    Among the small number of people who had bet on Zen, Zachary was the most nervous one. His eyes


    were locked on the Picture b as if it would disappear in the blink of an eye.


    Just before thepetition started, he had ced all his bets on Zen with a total of 1200 cubic


    crystals.


    Given that Zachary was from a humble and simple family, the amount of his bet was already a big


    fortune. So where did he get that amount of cubic crystals? Usually, he would only go to Seven Star


    Sword Light tform once a month for practice because his countable points would not allow him an


    extra trip.


    But thepetition today brought him wealth from the moment he ced his bets on Zen. And since


    Zen had won every round, he had already doubled his cubic crystals. From the original two cubic


    crystals, he had already made an unimaginable twelve hundred cubic crystals. He did not expect to


    earn this much by betting in thepetition. But before this, he was disappointed that he didn''t get to


    participate into All Peaks Competition. But the disappointment had vanished. With the amount he had


    already earned, he was now more eager to bet than to participate in thepetition.


    Now thepensation rate between Zen and Dick was one to nine, which was the highest


    compensation rate that he had ever seen. He could see from the huge gap that most people there


    ced their bets on Dick instead of Zen.


    Choosing Zen instead of Dick in thispetition was a big risk. But for Zachary, the risk was worth


    taking, so he had ced all his bets on Zen.


    "Nine times more, nine times more. Zen, if you defeat Dick this time, I will serve you forever!" Zachary


    repeated these words as he folded his arms in front and prayed. If Zen won this round, his cubic


    crystals would soar up to ten thousand pieces ording to the currentpensation rate. That also


    meant that he could exchange five thousand points with this many cubic crystals. And with these


    points, he would be able to practice more on the Seven Star Sword Light tform. For Zachary, today


    was the day that would define his future life, and he was willing to risk his all in this game.


    In the din of the crowd, Zen walked up to the stage.


    Zen and Dick both had eleven consecutive wins. But in this round, one of them was doomed to be


    defeated and end his consecutive wins.


    Dick was already on the stage. Instead of ckrock Peak''s inner disciple robe, Dick was wearing a


    blue gown with a jade belt around his waist.


    There were no strict requirements for clothes that thepetitors should wear in All Peaks


    Competition. And the way Dick dressed himself in today was clean and neat that he looked more like a


    gentle and intelligent poet than apetitor. There was no sign of crucial killing in his eyes.


    "Just admit your defeat," Dick said in a level, toneless voice as he watched Zen walked up to the stage


    and stood in front of him.


    "Why?" Frowning his brows slightly in ire, Zen questioned.


    "Because I am from ckrock Peak. Since I joined them, my master was nothing but kind and caring to


    me. And since you beat Mack thest time, you cannot me my master if he holds any grudge


    against you. He wants me to take revenge on his behalf, so you''d better be prepared," Dick replied, his


    voice still low and void of any emotions.


    Hearing Dick''s exnation, Zen averted his eyes to look at the crowd from ckrock Peak and saw


    Master Yu seating in the center. He could see Master Yu''s strong and vindictive eyes flickering with


    profound hatred as if it would st out any minute and burn him. Zen then turned his gaze back at Dick


    and smiled contemptuously. "I can see that. But why bother warning me? It would be more interesting


    to beat me up than warn me ahead," Zen said, a me of mockery flickered in his eyes.


    Dick sighed and said, "That''s not true. The fact that I am telling you this is because I don''t think that it''s


    your fault or Yehudi''s. Mack did not behave himself in the first ce and hit Yehudi. You hit him just for


    the sake of Yehudi and that''s kind of a fair deal to me."

    Zen was puzzled after hearing Dick''s words. He had no idea that his opponent was such a reasonable


    man. After a short pause, Zen asked, "But you''re still taking revenge on me for your friend Mack, am I


    right? Is that what''s thispetition going to be?"


    "Frankly speaking, yes. But it is more of Master Yu''s idea than mine. I don''t want to lie to you. I am not


    fond of Mack either," Dick replied. A grimace of helplessness came over his face.


    Indeed, Mack was a cruel and insidious man, and a humble and courteous person like Dick would


    never be his friend. Dick was the kind of a person who enjoyed a simple but full life, learning as much


    knowledge as he could in books and in life and treated his friends with integrity and politeness. He


    would never offend or bully anyone who was inferior to himself. So taking revenge on behalf of Mack


    was apparently an insult to him.
