"What’sthisForgingSwordCity?Don’tevenhaveadecentsword.Mightaswellhaveadrink!"

Justthen,therewasasoundcomingfromoutsidethetavern,followedbyseveralfigurespushingopenthedoorandpassingbySuYi.

"Kid,don’tyouhaveeyes?Youbumpedintome!"

Acoldshout,accompaniedbyafaintgaze,lockedontoSuYi.

SuYi’sgazefollowedandsawfourteenagersentering,roughlythesameageashimself,noolderthanseventeenoreighteenyearsold.Theywerewell-dressedandhaddecentbearing,buttheirattitudewasfarfromcommendable.

"Youstandononeside,andI’llgooutthroughthedoor.DidIbumpintoyouwhenIopenedit?Bemorepolitenexttime."

SuYiwasnotthetypetobebulliedfornoreason.Coupledwithhisuneasiness,hedidn’tcareaboutthebackgroundsoridentitiesoftheseyoungmenandspokewithoutcourtesy.

Theyoungmenwerealreadydiscontented,andseeingapeerdaretotalkbacktothem,evenwithinthesect,noonewoulddaretospeaktothemlikethat.Moreover,thiswasintheoutsideworld,inthissmallForgingSwordCity.

"Oh,didn’texpectthiskidtobesoarrogant.AreyouadiscipleoftheDivineSwordSchool?"Severalyoungmenpausedattheentranceofthetavern,theirgazefixedonSuYi.Ayellow-robedyoungmanaskedwithacoldtone.

"ThedisciplesoftheDivineSwordSchoolarenotworthafight,butwhatever,Ican’tbebothered!"
