Chapter 18: Unworthy? (2)

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

In the middle of the field stood two people, Gong Cheng and Du Yu.

The sky was dark and overcast.

Under the heavy rain, the flaming arrow looked especially stubborn, as if it was unwilling to be doused.

Even though it no longer had its burning glory, leaving only traces of sparks and threads of fire.

Gong Cheng stood in front of Du Yu and looked at his trembling body. He said in a low voice, “You still insist? Are you trying to prove your excellence to me?”

Du Yu said, “I just want that custom-made demon weapon.”

“Heh.” Gong Cheng couldn’t help but laugh. He didn’t expect Du Yu to tell the truth. “But your arrow has already been extinguished. You’ve only proven your weakness.”

When Du Yu looked down, the swaying sparks quietly disappeared.

This damn Gong Cheng was really experienced. Even the timing of his words was so precise, as if he had seen through Du Yu’s background.

Gong Cheng: “The fire elemental demonic aura in your body has already dried up. This is not good for Little Fire Fox’s growth.”

Du did not move from his position. “I saved it for her.”

Gong Cheng was displeased. With his sharp eyes, he knew what he was talking about.

His expression darkened at the way the cadet was making things up. “You’re tired.”

Du Yu did not respond. What Coach Gong said was indeed the truth. Even standing in a military posture for so long would be tiring, let alone drawing the bow and nocking an arrow.

“I don’t like him. He doesn’t believe us.” Little Burning Sun’s voice suddenly sounded in his mind. “I still have so much, Fire Demon Aura, hidden.”

Du Yu twisted his fingers and persuaded in his mind, “Coach Gong’s style is just like this, Little Scorcher, he has been helping us.”

“Oook.”

Gong Cheng said, “Your fingers must hurt a lot.”

Du Yu was speechless.

“Not speaking? Okay.” A sneer appeared on Gong Cheng’s face as he paced slowly around Du Yu. “It seems that you have a little more backbone than I thought.”

A demon tamer is a glamorous term that many people dream of becoming.”

Gong Cheng stood behind Du Yu and wiped his wet face. “However, even if mediocre people are lucky enough to become demon tamers, they are still mediocre.

They have a chosen body, but they are mentally barren, weak-willed, and pitiful to the point of being despised.”

The deep voice came from behind him. “Tell me, Du Yu, why did you become a demon tamer.”

Du Yu said, “The Thousand Paper Crane Rain turned me into a demon tamer.”

“No.” Gong Cheng walked around to Du Yu’s side and shook his head gently. “I didn’t ask about your luck or why the heavens chose you.

What I’m asking is why you chose the path of demon taming.”

Du Yu said, “I want to make some money and pay off some debts. I want to fill my stomach.”

Gong Cheng said, “That sounds very cliché.”

Du Yu licked the rain from his lips. “I want a bright new life. I want my story to be brilliant.”

Gong Cheng was very disdainful. “It’s even more cliché.”

Du Yu turned to look at Gong Cheng and said word by word, “I want to experience the mountains and seas of stars in the night sky.

‘I want a bow that shoots through the gates of heaven. An arrow that burns everything to ashes!’

I will pluck the leaves of the Kunlun Twin Trees and make a bed, using the fiery feathers of the mysterious Solar Crow race as a blanket.

I also want a few pets who love me, and those I love.’

Gong Cheng was silent for a moment before saying calmly, “It’s quite specific.”

After receiving such a response, Du Yu grinned. “The rest were all made up on the spot. Actually, I just want to earn some money and fill my stomach.”

Gong Cheng said, “Fill your stomach.”

Du Yu nodded gently. “Yes.”

In the pouring rain, Gong Cheng walked around to Du Yu. His eyes were originally narrowed, but layers of demonic aura ignited on his body.

Under the protection of the demonic aura, Gong Cheng finally opened his eyes.

He looked at Du Yu quietly for a long time and suddenly said, “You can’t hold on anymore.”

It was true. Du Yu’s arms and hands were already sore, and his feet were numb.

Gong Cheng said, “Go back and return the Little Fire Fox to the school. Then go to the Demon Spirit Bureau for help. You can live by raising a functional demon pet and doing some chores.”

Du Yu looked at Gong Cheng quietly and tightened his grip on the bowstring.

Gong Cheng said, “You can’t hold on anymore.”

Rumble!

There were bursts of thunder, and the rain threatened to become a rainstorm.

Gong Cheng said, “Why don’t you just stop being a demon tamer? Find a place to work, or continue to study and apply for difficult subsidies. If you work hard, you might even get a scholarship.”

A bolt of lightning streaked across the dark rainy day, illuminating Gong Cheng’s dark scarred face.

Gong Cheng said, “There are so many paths. Go back and choose.”

Du Yu said, “I…”

“Huh?” Gong Cheng leaned forward and leaned over.

Du Yu said, “I choose the one under my feet.”

Gong Cheng looked amused. “I believe you can successfully complete the training and pass the assessment. But you’re getting further and further away from the title of an outstanding student. You’re short-sighted and full of nonsense.

For a demon weapon, he did not hesitate to exhaust the fire attribute demonic aura in his body and ignore Little Fire Fox. This was not backbone. This was just a moment of anger.

Perhaps, after all, you really should return Little Fox to the Academy. You don’t deserve it.”

Du Yu frowned slightly. “I told you, I have a fire attribute demonic aura in my body.”

“Looks like you can finally prove something to me.” Gong Cheng sneered. With his sharp eyes, he couldn’t be bothered to argue.

“It’s a thunderstorm. You’re really unlucky. Absorb the fire attribute demonic aura as soon as possible. Let me see the flame on your bow before I reach the dormitory building.” Gong Cheng turned around and left. “Don’t say I didn’t give you a chance.”

Sizzle! Sizzle! Sizzle!

In the next moment, the silent black wood of the demon weapon became extremely hot. There was a sizzling sound, as if it had been activated. Steam instantly spread.

Gong Cheng’s departing figure suddenly stopped!

Amidst the heavy rain, the sizzling sound of the black wooden bow was covered. What really made Gong Cheng freeze in place was the feeling of being locked on!

Gong Cheng slowly turned his head. In his peripheral vision, he saw a shocking scene.

He trusted his own judgment and thought he could see Du Yu clearly.

However, it was obvious that the child behind him was more patient and cunning than he had imagined!

Under the pouring rain, the demon weapon’s black wood was burning and steaming. On the black string, a fire arrow was ready!

This was not a spark! This was a flame! A ferocious burning flame!

The young man’s bright eyes were unprecedentedly hot. They passed through the fine rain curtain and locked onto the scar under his eye.

The young man’s powerful voice drifted through the rain and into her ears. “I’m not lying to you.”

Gong Cheng finally turned around and faced Du Yu.

Lightning cut through the dark sky, making Gong Cheng’s stiff scar-faced face even more terrifying. “Including the part where you’re going to make the divine tree leaves your bed and the Solar Crow’s feathers as your blanket?”

Du Yu nodded gently. “After I’m full.”
