It was dusk, and a large cloud of dusk clouds in the sky covered the sunset, turning into golden sunset, and the snow was red, and it was already beginning to night.

In the wide square of Juyan Martial Arts Academy, a group of white doves were walking around by the frozen fountain, picking up bread on the ground; outside the campus gate, there were young civilians who had taken their luggage and left. Most of them were eliminated in the second and third levels. As for the more than 5,000 abandoners in the first level, they had already left.

After one day, more than 4,000 people were buried in the valley. Only 34 people were able to move the stone pier, all of which were men, including Ma He, Lin Yi, Liu Yu, Meng Qian, and others, all took three steps, which was also the highest record. After that, Gai Kui announced that today's assessment was over, and the thirty-four people who passed the test could participate in the final assessment tomorrow; and no one cared about the others, whether they returned home or stayed in the giant rock.

Xin Lie and Cheng Lei walked on the road with their backpacks on their backpacks. Both of them were very silent, and they felt mixed feelings in their hearts. If they said they were happy, there was not much; if they said they were depressed, there was no, but... today they really saw too much and experienced too much...

"It's really thanks to your help today..." Cheng Lei said hoarsely, and Xin Lie shook his head: "It's nothing." Cheng Lei smiled again and said, "Xin Lie, your performance is the best among everyone." Xin Lie smiled indifferently: "Maybe."

After walking out of the school gate, Cheng Lei pointed to the northwest direction and said, "I'm going back to Wangyue Hotel on North Street, are you together? Where are you staying?" Xin Lie pointed to the east: "No, I live at a ferry by the bridge these days." Cheng Lei nodded silently: "See you tomorrow." Xin Lie said, "See you tomorrow."

After saying that, the two went back separately. The candidates around them had different expressions. Some happy people said happily and wanted to drink a few glasses of wine to celebrate the final level. Some tired people stood at the door and looked at the martial arts courtyard, unwilling to leave...

Almost everyone recognized who Xin Lie was, the guy who saved people and killed eagles but ranked 99th in Wenshou. When he saw him, everyone gave advice and whispered to his friends: "It's that boy who killed a Black Mountain Eagle." "He is very good at it, but he has no brains." "He contradicted the adults and was not dead."

When Xin Lie faintly heard these praises or ridicule voices, he ignored them. He just did what he thought was right. He didn't care what others thought he was right.

At this time, he suddenly stopped and saw a girl in black clothes standing in the distance, staring at the towering bell tower in the martial arts courtyard, while her hands were holding a heavy burlap bag below.

Fang Ling'er did not pass the third level, and no one gave her another chance, and she really couldn't move. If Xin Lie hadn't stepped forward in time to pull her away, she might have died under the knife of the one-eyed instructor. However, she seemed to have lost her soul and remained silent all the way back. Her previous gentleness and love disappeared completely, like an empty shell. However, Xin Lie and Cheng Lei didn't know what to say, don't be sad? If it were them, could they do it?

Moreover, it is not only Fang Ling'er who was eliminated today; over the years, it is not only Fang Ling'er who was eliminated?

Does the road to warrior really need to be so cruel? What is all this... Why? Xin Lie frowned and sighed. Just as he was about to walk up, he saw Ma He, who was flowing in the air in front of him, quickly walking past and hit Zhong Fang Ling'er sideways.

Ma He was a burly man, Fang Ling'er was already exhausted physically and mentally. When she was hit like this, her body suddenly became unstable and fell to the ground. Her soft hands could not grasp the burlap bag. The burlap bag fell down, and the copper coins in the bag were poured out like rain. She couldn't help but exclaim: "Ah--"

Dingqiang Dingqiang Dingqiang...

Oops! Xin Lie ran up immediately, but his eyes were wide open, and anger arose. The guy did it on purpose! Ma He on the other side quickly bent over and grabbed the copper coins scattered all over the floor. He grabbed a handful and put them in his pocket, and continued to pick them up. Xin Lie ran and shouted loudly: "Hey!! Ma He, stop--"

"Don't rob it! Don't rob it!" Fang Ling'er also screamed in a panic. While protecting the copper coins on the ground, she pushed Ma He away and shouted in a trembling voice: "Don't rob my money, don't rob my money..."

"Get out!" Ma He not only did not stop, but instead pushed her away hard, picking her up faster, and said unreasonably: "This is my money, bitch--" Fang Ling'er fell to the snow again, knocking her forehead, and blood immediately poured out, still shouting: "Don't rob, go away, don't rob?" Her shout attracted the attention of everyone around her, but most of them looked indifferent, "Don't expect me to meddle in other people's business", and many people were even more greedy.

"Sir, someone is robbing-" Before the shouting came, Xin Lie had already run to the two of them. He kicked Ma He without stopping, and shouted in a cold voice: "Put down the copper coins!"

Several sword-bearing guards at the school gate in the distance also noticed that they were about to walk over to see what was going on, but a few young warriors who passed by the school stopped them. The men were wearing gorgeous clothes with wheat ears totems, looking at Xin Lie and the others, saying something with a funny look, as if they were watching a monkey show, and bursts of laughter.

After taking a heavy kick, Mahe immediately fell to the side. He stared at Xin Lie with resentment and calmly put the copper coins in his hand into his pocket, and said angrily: "It's not your business."

At first sight, no guards paid attention to it, and the warriors seemed to be intentionally indulging them. After this day, everyone knew that in the eyes of the warriors, the lives of civilians were not as good as an eagle, especially Fang Ling'er was an ordinary civilian who had been eliminated!

Suddenly, one person, two people... actually surrounded him and snatched him up!

It wasn't them who knocked people down or snatched them into their hands. It was picked up from the ground! Although a few broken copper plates are not a big deal, if you don't pick them up if you don't pick them up, you're a fool!

"Stop it!! Stop it!!" Xin Lie looked around and yelled, but he didn't know how to stop it. He watched these people keep robbing, those hands, those smiley faces who thought they were cheap, and his anger was about to burn him to the point of distortion. Everyone is ordinary people. Don't they know the difficulties of ordinary people!? What are they doing when robbing a girl's money!!

Seeing that everyone was still the same, he couldn't help but roar, waved his fists and smashed them: "Stop it—"

As soon as they saw him rushing over, those people grabbed the copper coins, got punched and ran away. They didn't dare to make a big deal. They lost their lives for some copper coins, which was even more stupid than a pig; the people on the other side stepped up their speed to continue robbing...

Some people are eliminated here, and many are the finalists. Liu Yu! Xin Lie punched him again and shouted: "Liu Yu, put down the money!"

"Who do you think you are the oldest!" Liu Yu actually dodged sideways, Xin Lie's fist was as fast as a wind. This time, this dodge was enough to show that his skills were also very good! Without entanglement, Liu Yu turned around and ran away, but he did not forget to turn around and laugh at him and exhale: "Chasing! Haha, look at how many people you can catch, think how much respect you on the mountain is true? I think you can point fingers? I'm a fool!"

Sure enough, everyone began to flee in scatters. Xin Lie grabbed one person and got some money back, but he didn't have time to catch another person.

Lin Yi and Meng Qian, who had formed a group with Liu Yu, continued to grab a handful of them on the snow and quickly left in different directions, leaving behind a string of laughter: "I picked up treasures on the ground, but I can't get them!", "It's developed!"

At this time, there were only a few copper coins scattered on the snow.

"Don't rob my money, don't rob me, don't rob me..." Fang Ling'er, who was pushed by everyone for several times, fell to the side. She held the burlap bag with some copper coins tightly with her hands, her face was bleeding, her expression was confused, and she murmured something.

"Are you okay?" Xin Lie squatted down and looked at her. His heavy face was hard to say that he was gentle. He was indeed a fool. He had imagined that those who participated in the martial arts assessment would be diligent and hard-working good people, and like-minded partners... He was wrong, and it was outrageously wrong...

But... the thought flashed in his mind, and the cold light of both eyes became stronger. He had already remembered the face of everyone involved in the robbery, and would never forget it, because he would definitely deal with these scumbags one by one in the future, and even one of them could not escape...

"I...Brother Xin Lie, I..." Fang Ling'er saw Xin Lie, pursed her lips and grinned, barely covering something, but she still couldn't help but suddenly she burst into tears and burst into tears: "Wooah, Wooah... Wooah..."

Listening to the sad and desperate cry, Xin Lie almost wanted to speak, but he didn't know what to say to comfort him, so he silently picked up the remaining copper coins in the snow and put them back into her burlap bag, one, two, and three...

"Xiu Lian died so miserably. She shouldn't die, she shouldn't die..." After crying for a while, Fang Ling'er choked up and said: "She obviously doesn't like that person. That person is a bully. Her parents insisted on marrying her for two acres of land, so she jumped into the river and committed suicide..." She said and cried again, looking up at him, and asked in a trembling voice: "Why do you need this? Brother Xin Lie, why do you need this?"

Xin Lie remained silent, Fang Ling'er shook her head and continued to cry, "I don't want this, I really don't want this. We have heard the stories of female warriors. They can marry someone they like, and they can decide their lives... Xiu Lian had asked me before committing suicide, and she said, "If I were a warrior, how good it would be!"

She trembled all over, tears mixed with blood falling from her face, "I thought I could... be a female warrior... Dad, mom and others scolded me, scolded me for dreaming... I secretly took a lot of money. The money was earned by my embroidery, but my family originally planned to buy land... I am a fool!"

Xin Lie shook his head silently, tear off a piece of cloth from his sleeve, grabbed some snow and wrapped it into a cold snow ball, pressed it on the wound on her forehead, and said, "You are not, just, just..."

"It's just a failure, right?" Fang Ling'er smiled sadly. Everyone passing by glanced at her from time to time, but she was already ashamed and didn't care about any ugly appearance. She said softly: "You shouldn't have saved me, I should have died then..."

A burst of anger rushed out, and Xin Lie couldn't help but yell: "What did you say! How many people died today? What do you think they were thinking before they died? Let's die!" His rapid breathing slowly calmed down and he whispered: "It's always good to live, isn't it?"

"Yeah." Fang Ling'er nodded sobly. She just felt that she was useless because she saved her and made him quarrel with Lord Gaikui. It was not worth it.

Xin Lie felt a little confused, his heart was very uncomfortable, for those people and for her, yes, why did this happen? If he was eliminated, would everything be over? Take out a small piece of silver from his backpack and stuffed it into her hand: "This is one tael of silver. If you take it, I can't help much." Fang Ling'er pushed it back without thinking: "I don't want it. You saved me twice and helped me too much, but I don't want this money."

Looking at the determination on her pale face, Xin Lie understood her mood and held it tightly with his hands.

"I have to leave. The streets on the other side of the hotel are imposing a curfew." Fang Ling'er stood up slowly. She could no longer get in the way. He had to take the assessment tomorrow... She carried a shriveled and empty burlap bag and settled for a while. Suddenly, she asked blankly: "Brother Xin Lie, is this fate? Is this Fang Ling'er's fate?"

"I don't know if I have a fate, but..." Xin Lie's thoughts churned in his heart and suddenly smiled: "Ha, I don't believe it. What a bullshit fate, God's will, is destined... I don't believe it!" He handed the snow ball to her and said: "Although I have little reading, I know that if you don't do anything in spring, then you will not be able to get a harvest in autumn. This is destined."

Fang Ling'er thoughtful, she glanced at him deeply, then turned around and walked south.

Watching her figure gradually moving away, Xin Lie's fists gradually clenched, and some voices echoed in his ears: "Have anyone ever heard of coolie becoming a warrior?", "If you can't pass the warrior, you can't even go back to your hometown, you can only stay in the giant rock and wait for death, without any hope.", "If you succeed, that's a dream; if you fail, that's a shit.", "Is this fate?"...

Is this fate?

He suddenly shouted, "Hey—"

Fang Ling'er in the distance looked back and her beautiful face was about to cry.

Xin Lie smiled, took a deep breath, and shouted loudly: "If you meet a god, please tell him for help and don't worry about Xin Lie!"

Fang Ling'er smiled lightly, nodded, habitually pulled the burlap bag, raised her feet again, and walked step by step.

Until her figure disappeared far and far away, Xin Lie didn't move. There was also some confusion in the depths of her firm eyes. Countless people came to take the exam for warriors every year, and most of them lost their lives and souls every year. Where did they go? Where did she?

If you still pursue your dreams all day long, it would be a very painful thing! If you say you throw them away, can you throw them away? How can you continue if you don’t throw them away? Or, hide it in your heart...

The three armies can seize the commander, but every man cannot seize the ambition... Is that true?
