Ren Yang shows Yin Mo a lot of herbs in the medicinal garden. He teaches him how to uproot them without breaking the roots.

Using soul power isn't easy. Broken roots means less grade in medicine pills.

Yin Mo spends the whole morning planting herbs in the garden. Then he harvests some herbs after lunchtime.

Gu Xian arrives when his duty time is over.

Yin Mo smiles brightly. He has missed him after not seeing him for a week.

Gu Xian rubs his head.

He asks, "Have you got used to this job yet?"

"Yes, senior brother and other disciples are nice to me."

"Good."

A loud bell rings three times. Gu Xian looks excited. It has been many months since anyone used the Arena.

Gu Xian says, "Let's go! We could learn a lot from watching duels."

I planned to teach him how to fight this afternoon. Watching a duel is good too.

The system mocks, "You are just bored to death."

"Yeah! There is no YouTube here. No games. No entertainment."

"Your Master has a bunch of yellow books."

"I have no interest in porn comics. Playboy magazines would be nice."

Most books here are drawn by artists living in poverty.

They arrive just in time. The duel hasn't started yet.

Gu Xian asks a disciple next to him, "Who's fighting?"

"Lin Zhang and his brother, Lin Zhui."

"Oh..."

The Lin Brothers are famous for being talented disciples. They are very close to each others. It's shocking news to hear them fighting here.

Disciples are forbidden from fighting. The only place to solve dispute is the Arena. Fighting until one falls out from the Arena. Or surrender.

Gu Xian takes out a water flask and a large pouch of melon seeds. Cracking seeds while watching a duel.

Yin Mo smiles. Gu Xian's favorite pastime is cracking melon seeds. He often goes to town just to buy 5 kgs seeds.

Gu Xian offers him some seeds so Yin Mo eats them too. The boy drinks water from the same flask. At the same spot where Gu Xian drank it.

Indirect kiss.

The boy blushes slightly. His senior brother hasn't noticed it.

Xue Ying sits beside them. It has been a long time since he joined them. His Master has assigned him to a lot of tasks.

Gu Xian's fault. He deliberately framed Xue Ying so he has less contact with Yin Mo. He fears this pig headed teammate will steal his precious little cabbage.

Xue Ying comments, "Silly brothers. Fighting over a woman."

Gu Xian is busy cracking seeds while watching the duel.

Yin Mo asks, "A woman?"

Xue Ying points to a beautiful lady on the podium next to the Arena.

He comments, "Bai Lian Hua."

Gu Xian got choked and coughs a lot. Yin Mo offers him the flask and Gu Xian drinks it eagerly.

Bai Lian Hua a.k.a White Lotus. It has bad meaning in modern world. As a big hypocrite.
