Hey guys! Since its the summer, Ive decided to try and take translating a bit more seriously. I picked up this story that I found. Hopefully you guys will enjoy it.

Sky Sword Continent, Lin City, Sword Testing Hall.

There were ten long lines of people, from inside the hall to the outside. If one looked carefully, the people were all young boys and girls.

These days were the third-class Wind Sword Sects annual external disciple recruiting ceremony around Lin Citys vicinity. Almost any young person that met the requirements would all come to sign up. It could be described as an incredibly popular event. It should be known, that once one entered into the Wind Sword Sect, even if one only was an outer disciple, they could already be considered as a fish leaping over the dragons gate.

Lu Xuan stood in the middle of the line, following along as the crowds moved forward. Once the final person in front of him disappeared, it was finally his turn. Arranging his clothes, he looked nervously at the examiner.

Name. A middle aged old man holding a jade slip sitting behind a desk asked a little impatiently.

Although his job was only simply registering, but after signing up countless way too many people continuously for the past few days, he naturally became impatient.

Lu Xuan.

Hearing the question, Lu Xuan quickly reported his name.

Age, strength.

Sixteen, body refining second level.

While recording the information, the examiner also glanced at Lu Xuan. The middle-aged man shook his head inwardly. The amount of people the sect would recruit today was not many. Even if a body refining third level wouldnt necessarily be guaranteed a chance. Body refining second level basically had no hope.

Okay, your number is 828. In fifteen days, come back here and wait for the assessment.

Thank you very much examiner senior. Lu Xuan said respectfully.

The middle-aged man waved his hand, indicating that Lu Xuan should go. A mere body refining second level kid completely failed to pique any sort of interest.

After receiving his identification number , Lu Xuan let out a sigh, leaving the long line.

After having lined up for a few hours, he had finally successfully signed up. Whether or not he would be able to join the Wind Sword Sect would be seen during the assessment in 15 days. Thinking about it, he couldnt help but tighten his grip on his number. This was his last chance.

Lu Xuan couldnt really be counted as a citizen of Lin City, but was the only son of a small clan that lived in Qing Mountain Village. Calling it a clan was a bit too flattering for the Lu family. Right now the Lu family was in decline. In the family, other than him, his father, and his older sister, there were only a few servants.

But because it was like this, the Lu familys days werent that easy, especially in recent times. The Long familys third young master had taken fancy to Lu Xuans older sister and wanted to forcefully marry her.

If it was someone else, if a man and a woman got married, even if they were forcefully married, they were still married, but in all of Qing Mountain Village, who didnt know about the Long familys third young masters notoriety? Lu Xuan would definitely not watch his older sister fall into the pit of fire.

It was just that, for the declining Lu family, when placed in front of the Long family, they were completely unable to defend themselves. The only chance was for Lu Xuan to enter the Wind Sword Sect, and once he became an outer disciple, the Long family would definitely not dare to wildly touch the Lu familys people.

Thus, Lu Xuan had come to the Wind Sword Sects assessment, not for himself, but for his older sister. This was also his only chance!

There was still fifteen days. His strength could still possibly be enhanced by a step. That way there would be a better chance.

After deciding in his heart, Lu Xuan quickly walked out.

However, not long after he had exited the Sword Testing Hall, Lu Xuans path was blocked off by some people.

Some strong-bodied servants stood in a line blocking Lu Xuans path. A slovenly looking youth, sloppily holding onto a folding fan, walked in front of Lu Xuan.

Lu Xuan, you still really came to signed up to participate in the Wind Sword Sects assessment? Did you really think that with your strength that you could be fancied by others with your amount of strength? Hahaha

Blocking Lu Xuans path was a branch member of the Long family, Long Yang.

Long Yang was not a stranger to Lu Xuan. Typically, Long Yang usually hung out with Long Tai. In fact, the matter with Lu Xuans older sister was brought up by Long Yang to Long Tai. Lu Xuans hatred towards Long Yang was no less than his towards Long Tai.

Listening to Long Yans unbridled laughter, Lu Xuan coldly said: Long Yang, just let that thought of yours die. No matter what, I will not let my older sister marry into the Long family.

Hearing these words, Long Yang couldnt help but laugh out loudly, creating a Pa noise as he closed his fan. He proceeded to speak in an openly disdainful manner: Over the past few years, youve already seen in Qing Mountain Village, which girl did my third older brother not get his hands on after laying his eyes on her? Your older sister is no exception There will be a day, she will also become acquainted with third older brothers bed as a plaything! Who can say for sure that after third older brother has finished playing with her, I might be able to also have my turn Hahaha!

In Long Yangs tone there was an indescribable sway to it.

As long as Im still around, you guys shouldnt dream of boasting! Hearing Long Yangs mouth desecrate his beloved older sister, Lu Xuan couldnt help but angrily say.

Whether or not therell be boasting isnt for you to decide. Im afraid, you still have hope of entering into the Wind Sword Sect right? Its worth mentioning, simply, since I want to break your hopes for good. Long Yangs face leaked out an ugly smile.

As he finished speaking, Long Yang winked to some of the servants by his side. Those servants suddenly understood, moving quickly, they walked past Lu Xuan.

Seeing that Long Yang wanted to make a move, Lu Xuan couldnt help but take a step back. He was only at a mere body refining second level and the Long familys servants were at least body refining third level and up. Lu Xuan was not their opponent one on one, much less against the three or four people.

Naturally, the conflict between Lu Xuan and Long Yang was seen by others, but with one look, one would know that it was a young master of a clan bullying a civilian boy. Unrelated people stayed away from it, no one wanted to get themselves into trouble.

As for that side, Lu Xuan had already been defeated by the servants. The difference in strength was too large. Lu Xuan only resisted for two seconds before being struck on the back of his neck by a servant and knocked unconscious.

Young master, how should we deal with this kid? The strongest servant respectfully asked Long Yang.

Looking over the vicinity, the amount of passersby wasnt small. Long Yang frowned and said: Lets first go out of the city then talk.

If it was in the Qing Mountain Village and he was with Long Tai, Long Yang would even dare to kill in the streets, but here was Lin City. Long Yang didnt dare to be too arrogant. Compared to a large clan from Lin City, the biggest family in Qing Mountain Village didnt amount to much.

Moving quickly, after a short while, Long Yang brought the servants outside of the city to the wilderness.

Young master, what should we do with him? This is out in the wilderness, even if we killed him, no one would know. One of the servants suggested.

Hearing this, Long Yang thought for a moment, then nodded: Hmm, lets just say this kid off lucky. This time well spare him. Beat him so that he has to stay in bed for at least 10 days to half a month. Doesnt he want to compete in the assessment? Id like to see how hes going to attend.

Long Yangs position in the Long family wasnt too high. Most of the time he relied on Long Tai like a fox assuming the majesty of the tiger. Now that Long Tai wasnt around, he didnt dare to be too arrogant . He still didnt dare to actually get rid of Lu Xuan.

Receiving Long Yangs command, the servants immediately began to beat the unconscious Lu Xuan. These servants had helped Long Yang perform these actions multiple times. They knew where to hit so it hurt but without killing the person. Even though he was unconscious, due to the huge amount of pain, Lu Xuan still revealed a pained expression.

After finishing, Long Yang then threw Lu Xuan into the wilderness, and then took his men away with him. In the case that Lu Xuan was eaten by wild animals, that wasnt his problem.
