Friendship gesture

After staying in that place for a long time. The exam time had finally arrived.

Gu Ren, who could not go out on his own, leaned on Zao Tian's left shoulder, so the two headed toward the exit of the 'Dark Forest'.

----

In the testing ground, there were practically all the groups of candidates who had entered the 'Dark Forest'.

Approximately six hundred people passed the test. Those people who failed to gather the 10 necessary spiritual cores had already left the 'Star Of War School' as well as those who had left the 'Dark Forest' before the end of the test.

"Looks like that kid really died in there alone." Lin Bei spoke to one of his followers. He was extremely happy.

"Yes ... and it seems that Gu Ren also had the same fate," the young man replied.

"It's better this way! That Gu Ren overestimated himself by thinking he could pass the test alone. "Lin Bei replied.

When Gu Ren and Zao Tian arrived at the exit of the 'Dark Forest', Zao Tian stopped in his tracks. He then placed his hand in his purse and removed 10 spiritual cores. He handed them to Gu Ren and said, "Take this!"

"But ... I can not accept! You will be disapproved if you give me these cores. "Gu Ren said as he looked at Zao Tian. He was totally taken aback by that gesture.

"Do not worry about it! Just accept! I have enough for me too! "Zao Tian replied as he placed the spiritual cores in the hands of Gu Ren.

"But ... anyway ... you fought for them! I can not accept them! "Gu Ren was still reluctant.

"I'm not doing this out of pity! If we had not met ... maybe we were both dead now. And also ... in the future I may need your help. When that time comes ... I hope you're willing to join me. Consider this just as an advance payment. "Zao Tian replied slowly.

"... All right, I'll take it! But when you need me tell me right away! I will definitely pay that debt! "Gu Ren answered sincerely. He did not want to live without paying that debt.

"Right. Then let's go". Zao Tian replied as Gu Ren kept the 10 spiritual cores.

The Elders were already ready to declare the end of the examination and pass the necessary guidance to those approved.

Ye Zuo was a little sad in his heart, for some reason he put a lot of faith in Zao Tian. But once he had not returned, he could simply cheer for Zao Tian as he announced the end of the examination.

Ye Zuo stepped in front of the other three Elders and filled his lungs in order to declare the end of the exam to disciple the 'Star Od War School'. But even before Ye Zuo uttered a single word. A huge commotion took over the candidates.

"Look there! Are not those two? "Someone shouted through the crowd.

"It's not possible."

"And also ... why Gu Ren is in that state?"

Everyone was extremely surprised when they saw the state in which Gu Ren was. But the most incredible thing was who was supporting Gu Ren as he walked.

It was Zao Tian, ​​the boy who was on the first level of the Spiritual realm and was regarded as the weakest of all there. In addition, Zao Tian had entered alone into the 'Dark Forest', as did Gu Ren.

Some sympathizers of Zao Tian and others who wanted to be friends with Gu Ren quickly rushed and supported Gu Ren. They quickly took Gu Ren to the medical tent for him to be treated.

Before Gu Ren entered the medical tent, Ye Zuo asked, "Junior Gu Ren, were you able to gather the 10 spiritual cores?"

Gu Ren nodded in agreement and handed the 10 spiritual cores to a young man who promptly handed them over to Ye Zuo.

"Very good. May take you to be examined. "Ye Zuo replied after analyzing those 10 spiritual cores.

"Wow ... This guy is really very strong. He managed to gather the 10 spiritual cores alone. "Someone said in admiration.

"He is on the 7th level of the spiritual realm. The only one among us who would achieve such a feat is definitely him. "Another admirer replied.

"Humph ... Great shit! He got the 10 spiritual cores ... but in exchange for that, he was in that deplorable state. "Lin Bei snorted with deep envy in his heart. It was very difficult for him to get the spiritual cores he needed, even if he had such a large and strong group with him.

After the commotion of seeing Gu Ren come back as a warrior, who had fought a war alone, everyone turned their eyes to Zao Tian.

Somehow that kid had come back from the 'Dark Forest' without any scratches, and it looks like he still carried Gu Ren to the exit.

Did he hide all the time? With his strength it was absolutely impossible to survive 2 full days in the 'Dark Forest' and collect the necessary spiritual cores.

Ye Zuo struggled to maintain a solemn appearance. Inwardly he was quite happy, but he could not demonstrate his happiness.

"Junior Zao Tian, ​​have you managed to gather the 10 spiritual cores?" Ye Zuo asked firmly.

After hearing the question, Zao Tian promptly picked up 10 spiritual cores in his bag and threw them to Ye Zuo.

Ye Zuo analyzed the nuclei and realized that those were the nuclei of 'Ferocious Black Wolves'. He was amazed to realize this, because the 'Black Ferocious Wolves' were always together from their packs and were hardly alone. That meant that Zao Tian alone had killed at least two whole packs. That was an amazing thing.

"But how? Did he get those spiritual cores by himself? "Virtually every candidate wondered that.

"And yet ... he does not have a single scratch. That ... it's impossible. "Everyone was shocked.

Lin Bei also could not believe that Zao Tian had done it himself. A thought came to his mind and he immediately shouted, "Of course this is impossible! It was certainly Gu Ren who gave these 10 spiritual cores to him! He would never get them on his own! In fact, Gu Ren gave them to him as thanks for having helped him! "

After Lin Bei's words, the people immediately calmed down. The only plausible explanation for that was what Lin Bei said. Surely that was what should have happened, Gu Ren just paid the debt for that kid to have helped him.

What everyone did not know, was that they were infinitely deceived. Instead of Gu Ren having given spiritual cores to Zao Tian, ​​the opposite situation had happened. They would be even more shocked if they found out that Zao Tian possessed 74 more spiritual cores in his bag.

After Lin Bei's words, Zao Tian stared at him. Several times this Lin Bei had tried to undermine or discredit Zao Tian. So Zao Tian definitely thought he should charge that later.

"You bastard!" While the crowd was finally calm, A young man covered with mud from head to toe, ran furiously in the direction of Zao Tian.

As he approached Zao Tian, ​​the young man quickly grabbed him by the collar of his robe and shouted, "You bastard! Were you trying to kill us in there? Look at the state in which you left me! "

That was Ming Xiao, who several times ended up sunk in the mud whenever he met Zao Tian in the 'Dark Forest'.

"Sorry, friend! I just did not mean it! "Zao Tian replied as he placed his hands behind his head.

He had no intention of fighting with Ming Xiao, after all several times, Zao Tian put in danger this Ming Xiao and his whole group. Even though Zao Tian was punched in the face, he definitely would not retaliate.

But a shout came up behind Ming Xiao: "Stop! Leave him alone! He's being honest! I believe him, he did not want to hurt us! "The young man who shouted was Ming Zou.

After Ming Zou's words, Ming Xiao was a little surprised. But he did not loosen the footprint at all, and struck Zao Tian with two punches.

* Bang. Bang *

Zao Tian simply accepted the two punches and did not sketch any kind of reaction. He simply looked at Ming Xiao and said, "Brother ... I'm sorry. I know I made a mistake and put you in danger. Were those punches enough to vent your anger? "

"You son of a bitch! Do not think that I'm going too easily. I, Ming Xiao, am not your brother, either. "Ming Xiao was even more furious.

"Stop! Ming Xiao, stop embarrassing us with this show! " Ming Zou shouted angrily.

Ming Xiao froze for a moment, he looked a little scared to Ming Zou. But before releasing Zao Tian, ​​Ming Xiao took one last punch at him.

* Bang *

Surely that last punch was the strongest of them all. The punch knocked down Zao Tian and when he fell to the ground, the bag he carried also fell spreading various spiritual cores across the floor.
