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 become descendants of Ground Clan.
They were part of the fifth clan of Asura City. The discarded ones had suddenly risen to become 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 come 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 some 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 moment, 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 men sitting on the ground.

I am very serious here. Ancestor asked me to choose people with high physical strength, and you all belong to the first batch. If any of you slack during construction, don’t blame me 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 time you are caught goofing around while working, half of your credit points will be deducted. You must remember this warning in your heart and not blame me for not reminding you.

Excitement filled the faces of the strong men sitting in three rows, and without paying any attention to the punishment mentioned by Old Bastard, they began to joke around. The reason why they came 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 men sitting before him and nodded in satisfaction.



Old Bastard, come 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 me 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 came here to ask if you have some people who are good at forging weapons. If you have, then send them to me.

Old Bastard frowned. There were people who helped the four great clans in forging metals, so they had some understanding about it, but their numbers were extremely small. He also couldn’t guarantee that there was someone among the first batch of workers he had summoned who knew how to forge weapons.
Old Bastard turned towards the three rows of men 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 become a powerhouse? He was no exception.
Two muscular men 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 some 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 moment. His two friends sitting beside him had sold him out, and they did it with excitement 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 become 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 something, but Rat stepped forward first.

If you understand forging, then come 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 men 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 me, 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 moment 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 come out and follow me. Others continue with Old Bastard.

Jia Lou walked with excitement after Rat, who was a head shorter than him. After making seven or eight turns, Rat found the forging room of the colosseum. Last time, 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 time 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?
