I am the best when it comes to taking divergent paths. With just a flip of my hand, I shall take the path less commonly travelled. I search far and wide, only to find myself unbeatable and unrivaled. So now I ask, who else can match my awesomeness? Acting tough is second nature to me and I am a lone wolf. The road is long and winding but I shan’t feel lonely as long as I am able to act tough! Life and death bore me and I do whatever I deem fit. “Young man, way back when I started acting tough, you were still learning how to put on your underpants!” Xu Que thus decided to take the path of acting tough. He decided to act tough every single god-damned day. If he wasn’t acting tough, he was scheming for the best way to act tough!
Amidst all the mocking, taunting and ridiculing, Xu Que wore a smile and followed the directional signs on the mountain top towards the valley.
Along the way, there were many other Cultivators who were also on their way towards the valley who had heard of Xu Que wanting to finish the stage alone, and they could not help but laugh at him too.
Hence, Xu Que walked past tens and hundreds of them. More than half of them knew about his situation.
"Hey, I’ve heard of a young man who didn’t know his limits and wanted to pass through the second stage alone!"
"Ha ha! I’ve heard about it already and had been excited about it for a while. How could somebody be so stupid?"
