The next day everyone was warming up for the competition and xue yuan was playing in the lake with the fishes. Xue zheng came to the lake and catches xue yuan's ears and pulled him out of water.
Xue zheng said "everyone are practicing there and you are playing here"
Xue yuan said "they are not practicing they are warming up"
Xue zheng said "then you go and warm up too or I will ask dad and never let you enter this lake"
Xue yuan pouted and said "you are so cruel brother I was only playing with mina, Tina, Ming Ming, ah rong and li li"
Xue zheng sweated and said "you even gave the fishes name and all the names you gave them are girl's names"
Xue yuan said "YES! Do you want to play with them?"
Xue zheng said "*sigh* do you want to go and practice or should I ban you from the lake"
Xue yuan said "YEAH YEAH FINE! HUMPH!"
Xue zheng chuckled.
After few minutes everyone were told to come to the competition ground.
Every clan master gathered there they were waiting for the kings to come and start the contest.
Then one by one the five different clan leaders came. Then a man explained them what are the stages of the competition. 1st introduce your spiritual weapon.
2nd try to wake your instrumental weapon.
3rd fight with ghouls with your spiritual swords.
Every clan master introduced their spiritual weapon.
Now everyone had to wake their instrumental weapon. This unexpected everyone were shocked they said to the king's "we are so sorry your majesty but we don't know how to call out our instrumental weapon"
Clan leader Jin said "how can it be possible didn't our master bai xiang teach you the second test"
Xue yuan said "he dead before teaching us that it's not our fault"
Yan xichen said "it's not that hard just focus and say turn and your spiritual weapon will change into one"
Yan clan was first they took a deep breath and called out their musical weapon xuchen turned into a harp and yan Zhao's weapon turned into a zither
Everyone was excited by seeing their instruments.
Everyone's spiritual Shan (Chinese hand fan) and swords turned into their musical instruments.
Xue Liang had a harmonica and xue zheng had a kalimba
But for some reason xue yuan wasn't able to wake his flute. He tried many times but it didn't work he was disappointed. Hua xiang was worried about him. He tried 5 more times but failed.
The man said "sorry master but you lost this round."
And walked away. He felt sad he clenched but then his big brother xue zheng and xue Liang patted him and said "it's okay you still have one more round. So, brother CHEER UP!"
He smiled and said "you both are the best" and hugged them. Hua xiang saw them and his worries disappeared and smiled at them.
In the next round everyone was in groups. Group 1 Jin huisang, wen yang, yan zhao, xue zheng, Jin xiong and Shan Yao.
Group 2: Jin wu, Shan lian, xue yuan, yan cheng and xue Liang
Group 1 went far away from group 2. Xue yuan said "hey it's not fair why are all the elder brother in that group and why do we have younger ones in our group. They are more powerful than us and, on the top, they have one extra member"
Yan cheng smiled and said "there's no need to be angry about that. This round depends on our hard work on how many members or age difference. Just try your best"
Xue yuan said "did you just smile?'
Yan cheng coughed and walked away. Xue yuan started laughing at him. Then suddenly group 1 and group two were locked in two different glass cells which was unbreakable.
Then the man released ghouls inside of cell no 1. The ghouls were so powerful. The number of ghouls they kill in 5 mins the number of points they get.
Group 1 killed 6 ghouls in 5 mins and the remaining disappeared. Now it was group 2's turn to fight the ghouls.
Everyone started fighting then using their weapons. But then suddenly many walking corpses started coming at them. Yan cheng shouted and asked
"WHY ARE THERE SO MANY OF THEM STOP RELEASING THEM!"
Then the man said "THIS ARENT THE COMPETITION GHOULS....THEY ARE REAL ONES!!!!"
