Chapter 121 - '\/|||' Mark

nZhao Luo's score was indeed a shocking matter for Senior Cutie but his charming laugh had melted away the heart of this shocked baldy.
n'How lovely.'
nSenior Cutie thought as the melodious laugh entered his ears.
n
"Not only are you strong...but.
"
n'Well built too. Mhmm.'
nSenior Cutie couldn't help himself as he praised Zhao Luo while filtering the creepy words out of his comment.
n
"Hah.
"
nZhao Luo stopped laughing and looked at the baldy who was praising him.
n
"So did I pass?
"
nZhao Luo asked Senior Cutie with a taunting smile.
n
"Yes.
"
n
"You passed the strength test but not only that.
"
nSenior Cutie told Zhao Luo as he walked towards him.
n
"The score '1000' shows that a disciple has the strength of a second '||' level, outer disciple.
"
nSenior Cutie told Zhao Luo while taking glances at his superb score, which was superb in more than one way.
n'9069.'
nZhao Luo nodded as he listened to the baldy trying to explain things to him.
n
"Every increase of 1000 score shows that the strength of a person has increased by a ton. With your score being more than 9000 you have already surpassed a second '||' level disciple in terms of strength by 8 tons.
"
nSenior Cutie continued but this time he was touching his fingers like he was using them to count something.
nZhao Luo who was confused for a second looked at the bald senior in front of him and saw a palm raised, right in front of him.
nSenior Cutie brought down his palm and showed his five fingers.
n
"In terms of strength, you are already close to the top five disciples in our trainee hall.
"
n
"While all of them are way above you in their status as all five of them are ninth '∆' level, outer disciples, while you are just a tr....
"
nSenior Cutie stopped talking as his mouth was opened in shock.
n'Did he just realize everything?'
nZhao Luo wondered as he looked at senior cutie whose face was a perfect match of someone opening an egg from the middle.
n
"You...did the outer disciple ruling over the trainee hall give you something?
"
nSenior Cutie questioned Zhao Luo with sharpness in his eyes.
n'I should have just brought him to the senior first.'
nWhile shaking his head, senior cutie thought that bringing Zhao Luo here for his test was a mistake.
nFor him, Zhao Luo was just some handsome trainee aiming to advance to an outer disciple but who knew that he would turn out to be a monster.
n'This bald egg...'
nWhile listening to senior cutie, Zhao Luo had already made up some new nicknames for him.
n
"What taking over? Senior Mite isn't like that anymore.
"
nZhao Luo told senior cutie in a loud voice like he was reprimanding him.
n
"Ah, so Mite was the one handling the job.
"
nSenior cutie nodded while remembering Mite's thick and sturdy body as his mouth looked filled for some reason.
n
"So did he give you something or not?
"
nShaking his head to throw away the malicious thoughts rising in his head, he asked Zhao Luo again.
n'Hmmm.'
n
"Ah, yes. This.
"
nZhao Luo brought out a white badge from his robe and passed it to the baldy.
n'Grab'
n
"This...He gave you the white badge.
", Senior Cutie stuttered as another shocking thing was happening.
n'It's a shocking day.'
nHe thought while looking at the white badge in his hand.
n
"Well yeah, he did. That is why I passed it to you.
"
nZhao Luo raised his shoulder for an instant.
n'Why would I lie?'
nZhao Luo didn't even know the value white badge except that it was a token of approval from Mite.
n
"This badge means, he has already lost to you.
"
nSenior Cutie looked at Zhao Luo with suspicion filling his eyes.
nZhao Luo had nothing else to say as he gave a short nod.
n
"So he lost to you. A level seven '
/||' disciple losing to a trainee. But I guess you are quite capable.
"
nSenior Cutie had already seen Zhao Luo's strength so he could understand the reason why Mite gave Zhao Luo a white badge.
nWhite Badge: When a hall overseer loses to a lower level disciple, then this white badge is given to the disciple when he leaves that particular hall.
n
"So what will happen to me? Will I be advancing to an outer disciple or not?
"
nZhao Luo just wanted to know a simple question asked the baldy who was acting like Wedlock Homes, that is, as a detective.
n
"Ah yes. You will be promoted to an outer disciple but not only that, I will give you five marks.
"
nSenior Cutie told Zhao Luo as he started walking deeper into the hall.
n
"Come.
"
nSenior Cutie waved at Zhao Luo and gestures at him, to follow him.
n
"Okay.
"
nZhao Luo replied as he followed behind the shining head.
n'I will be an outer disciple now.'
nZhao Luo confirmed the reality in his mind as he looked around.
nThere was no one in the big hall.
nThis hall was big enough to contend the training area of the trainee hall.
n'But no one's here.'
nZhao Luo looked around more but couldn't find anyone in such a big hall.
n
"What are those doors for?
"
nZhao Luo asked the senior as he could see two doors in the hall.
nBut both of them were closed so it was quite a surprise that the hall was so big and had two big doors yet no one was there or in the hall.
n
"One is for the ranking tests, that will start next week.
"
nSenior Cutie answered Zhao Luo but stopped there.
n
"We are here. Give me your badge.
"
nSenior Cutie told Zhao Luo as they stopped outside another closed door.
n'Bang!'
n'Bang!'
nWhile Zhao Luo was removing his black badge, the baldy smacked the door twice.
nStunned by the sudden smacking Zhao Luo ripped the badge away from his chest side of the robe, slightly ruining his robe.
n'Are you okay?'
nZhao Luo wondered while looking at baldy.
nHe didn't dare to ask this question out loud fearing the consequences of this weirdo jumping over him.
n'Creak~'
nThe door slowly opened and Senior Cutie entered the room while Zhao Luo entered the room two steps after the senior.
n
"Badge.
"
nBaldy said to Zhao Luo while leaving his hand in front of Zhao Luo.
n'Tap.'
nZhao Luo placed his black badge on Senior Cutie's hand.
n'Tap, Tap.'
nThe baldy moved ahead.
nZhao Luo looked inside the room and found nine different holes in the front wall.
nEach hole had a different type of mark above it showing a level.
nFrom Left to Right, Zhao Luo's gaze lingered on every one of the marks.
nThe first one the left one was.
n'|'
nThen the others kept on coming in his sight as he moved his eyes towards the right.
n||, |||, |
/,
/,
/|,
/||,
/|||, ∆
nZhao Luo could see his senior, an outer disciple, senior cutie, standing there in front of the wall, staring in the halls.
nHe had Zhao Luo's badge in his right hand.
nZhao Luo could see baldy's right hand going towards '
/' hole, that is the fifth level.
nBut then the baldy moved it to the right.
n
"
/||
"
nZhao Luo mumbled but before he could have finished saying what he was seeing the senior cutie already had his arm in front of
/||| mark.
n
"What are you...
"
n
"Shhh.
"
nZhao Luo tried to question the dumb actions of senior cutie but before he could complete his dialogue, senior cutie interrupted him with his 'Shh~' sound.
nZhao Luo raised his brows as he felt annoyed but still he tried his best to stay calm.
nThe baldy kept on moving his hand between the marks '
/' fifth level and '∆' ninth level.
nHe did that the second time and Zhao Luo kept quiet.
nThe third time, Zhao Luo didn't say anything.
nThe fourth time, Zhao Luo didn't say anything and just watched his senior.
nThe fifth time... The sixth time... The seventh time, this same action was repeated by the senior many times till Zhao Luo already had his fists tightened and his teeth clenched.
n
"Can you stop already? Are you trying to perform 'Monk doing a Shit Robotic Dance'? Huh?
"
nZhao Luo broke down and suddenly shouted at the senior cutie.
nThat is what Zhao Luo was looking at.
nA room where he was the only member of the audience and the senior cutie was the performer.
nHe was handling such insane torture.
n'I want to wash my eyes after this, Sigh.'
nZhao Luo couldn't control his anger anymore but he stopped shouting as he realized that the senior was putting his hand in one of the halls.
n
"
/|||
"
nZhao Luo saw Senior Cutie's hand going in the eighth-level hole.
nSenior Cutie took his hand out but it was empty. Zhao Luo's badge was still in the hole.
nAfter a moment, the badge was thrown out of the hole and it went straight towards Zhao Luo.
nGrab!
n'Tap.'
nZhao Luo caught his badge which lied upside-down on his hand.
nZhao Luo switched its side and saw that his badge had marks now.
n
"It's..
"
nZhao Luo could see five marks on his badge.
n
"I am a level eight outer disciple?
"
nZhao Luo asked with a shaking tone while his eyes were fixed on his badge which had '
/|||' glowing on it.
