Chapter 861: Helpless Jia Luo
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The arena of the colosseum was filled with people lying on their backs. The chairs on the first two levels of the spectator stand were dismantled, and people lay there too. Everyone was looking at the countless dots filling the night sky without feeling sleepy. Within a day, their identity has changed completely. From lowest class dispensable people of Asura City, they had beco descendants of Ground Clan.
They were part of the fifth clan of Asura City. The discarded ones had suddenly risen to beco on equal footing with the four clans of Asura City.
The reason behind the transformation was the sixth ancestor Chen Xiu, and every descendant of Ground Clan was grateful toward him.
“Finally, a day has co when we can proudly raise our heads and don’t need to kowtow when seeing the disciples of the four great clans.”
“Ah Mu, I heard that all children can cultivate martial techniques, so can I also learn so skills.”
“Naturally, lord ancestor has chosen to pass on martial techniques to all of us.”
“En, then I will cultivate those martial skills and defend Ah Mu, Ground Clan, and the ancestor.”
The sounds of soft discussions echoed throughout the colosseum. Every person was looking forward to the arrival of the next day. As long as they could obtain credit points by working and would use them to exchange for martial skills, they would benefit greatly.
The martial skills which they could only look at and never hope to obtain were finally within their reach.
At that mont, Rat rushed in while holding a pile of blueprints. When he looked at the densely packed people in the colosseum, he felt a headache coming. How could he choose those who can craft weapons from so many people? After thinking about it, he walked down the familiar path and arrived in the lobby of the lowest level.
Once he entered it, he saw Old Bastard standing in front of a group of muscular n sitting on the ground.
“I am very serious here. Ancestor asked to choose people with high physical strength, and you all belong to the first batch. If any of you slack during construction, don’t bla for being impolite. For participating in the construction, you will get 100 points each day.
“The lowest level martial art requires one thousand points to exchange. In other words, as long as you all work for ten full days, you can exchange them for one martial art. Naturally, this is under the premise that you all work earnestly. Every ti you are caught goofing around while working, half of your credit points will be deducted. You must rember this warning in your heart and not bla for not reminding you.”
Excitent filled the faces of the strong n sitting in three rows, and without paying any attention to the punishnt ntioned by Old Bastard, they began to joke around. The reason why they ca to him was to participate in the construction of houses and earn credit points. To their surprise though, the cultivation skill of lowest level only required them to work for ten days, so who would laze around.
Old Bastard looked at the eager expressions of the strong n sitting before him and nodded in satisfaction.
“Old Bastard, co here,” Rat shouted loudly while standing by the gate.
Old Bastard looked at Rat who was holding a pile of blueprints and suspiciously asked, “What the hell do you want? What is this in your hands?”
“Blueprints given by lord. I just left his room, and he gave a mission. But when I was coming down, I saw people sleeping, so I did not think it good to rush there and choose people. Instead, I ca here to ask if you have so people who are good at forging weapons. If you have, then send them to .”
Old Bastard frowned. There were people who helped the four great clans in forging tals, so they had so understanding about it, but their numbers were extrely small. He also couldn’t guarantee that there was soone among the first batch of workers he had summoned who knew how to forge weapons.
Old Bastard turned towards the three rows of n and asked,”Does anyone among you know how to forge weapons? If there is, raise your hand.”
Everyone looked around doubtfully. In the final row, Jia Lou rolled his eyes and tried to shrink his well proportioned figure so that the person in front of him would hide his figure. Although he knew the techniques of forging since he had helped the four great clans, he did not want to lose out on participating in construction and obtaining 100 credit points every day.
In just ten days, he could exchange for a martial skill. With such a good job in front of him, why would he return to forging weapons?
Who did not want to beco a powerhouse? He was no exception.
Two muscular n sitting by Jia Luo’s side turned to look around, and their gazes fell on him. Their eyes lit up, and they loudly shouted, “Jia Luo, didn’t you work in the forging factory of the four great clans? You should have so understanding about the forging techniques.”
Another man also stood up and excitedly spoke while pointing towards the hidden Jia Lou. “Yes, yes, Jia Luo, you can forge. Old Bastard, Jia Lou understands forging.”
Jia Lou’s expression turned ugly as he sat with his head down. He was most afraid of such a mont. His two friends sitting beside him had sold him out, and they did it with excitent on their faces. He was sure that he was done for now. The best job was out of his reach, and he would have to go and beco a forging master.
Old Bastard shot a glance at Jia Lou. When he saw him hiding by bending his waist, he was about to say sothing, but Rat stepped forward first.
“If you understand forging, then co out,” he said with a smile. “Ancestor has commanded that we must rush to create the things in these blueprints starting from tonight. For every piece you create, you will obtain one thousand credit points.
One thousand credit points!
All the muscular n in the lobby cried out and raised their hands one after another. When creating one item was equivalent to one martial skill, who would not want to put a foot in such a profitable matter?
“I! I! I! I can forge, I am an expert.”
“I also can, choose , I am better than him.”
“I possess great strength, so I can forge even faster.”
Rat looked at everyone raising their hands, and his expression turned gloomy.:
“Only those who really can do it should raise their hand,” he said coldly. “If you turn out to be fake and create useless things, then forget about credit points, you will also be penalized.”
The mont he said that, everyone lowered their hands and turned silent. Jia Lou, however, lifted his head then and raised his hand.
“I-I can forge.”
“Then you co out and follow . Others continue with Old Bastard.”
Jia Lou walked with excitent after Rat, who was a head shorter than him. After making seven or eight turns, Rat found the forging room of the colosseum. Last ti, when he was finishing the previous mission, he had went through the cages of the vicious beasts and passed by the forging room.
After searching for a long while, Rat found the forging room unused for a very long ti and placed the blueprint on the table. He then turned to look at the tall Jia Lou.
“Since you can forge, take a look at these blueprints. If you can, start working right away. Tonight it will be just you, but tomorrow, I will choose more from among the descendants.”
“Hey, what is this thing in the blueprints?”
