\nImagining that Go giving him a hand, Qin Shou felt confident to the utmost.\nHardly had he spotted Wang Di and Wang Manyun when he hastened to call them from afar.\n"Haha, Manyun, Wang Di! Nice to see you again!"\nHis loud shout raised eyebrows in the square. All disciples fixed their eyes on him.\nHowever, Qin Shou felt rather self-satisfied; he simply disregarded their reactions.\nOn the contrary, Wang Di and Wang Manyun disregarded him as well.\nQin Shou put a long face. He couldn't withstand their negligence.\n"Stay put!"\nQin Shou kept up forthwith and got in their way.\nWang Di and Wang Manyun both looked pretty annoyed, "How come he didn't know what an awful bore he was?"\nIndeed, Qin Shou had no idea about that at all.\nHe had long been waiting for the opportunity to show off.\n"Which senior has taken you two as official disciples?"\nHe raised the question on purpose. He learned that Wang Di and Wang Manyun hadn't been allocated to any senior yet.\n Wang Manyun figured him out straight away. However, she didn't feel like mince words with him.\n"It's none of your business."\nAs far as Wang Di was concerned, he had become increasingly sophisticated and composed ever since the alchemy session with Lin Xiao. He simply made no response at all.\n"I was taken as an official disciple by the owner of the Mount Youming," Then Qin Shou pointed at Yi Jia in the distance, looking quite complacent, "Take a look! That was Yi Jia over there, the son of my martial master. He is my big brother!"\nHe droned on, "I can help you to put in a good word if you wanna join the Mount Youming. Since I'm in a good mood, I'm happy to give a hand if you beg me for that."\nNevertheless, Wang Di retained his composure and silence.\nWang Manyun rolled her eyes.\n"Lunatic!"\nQin Shou was about to have a fit when he caught himself. He suddenly remembered a trump card he hadn't played.\n"You…Well, forget about it. I'm a big figure now. There's no need to reason with you."\nThen he feinted a casual manner and went on.\n"Well, something just rang a bell. You might have got the pellets the other day as well, though you're still unwanted. Tell me about your martial capacity."
Even Wang Manyun didn't feel like talking nonsense with him anymore.\nHowever, Qin Shou didn't notice that. That stupid question brought him to the next point.\n"You see, the Most Refined Royal Pellets are a real elixir wonder. My martial capacity rose to a higher level as soon as I took one. I learned that many disciples are eyeing a second pellet, including the key disciples. However, there hasn't been anyone privileged so far."\nWhile he was wasting the time of Wang Di and Wang Manyun, he failed to notice their facial expressions — they looked at each other, with sparkles of ecstasy shining in their eyes. Then they looked back at Qin Shou as if they had remembered something important.\nQin Shou raised his head and spotted their stare. Then he became even more excited.\n"You know, I'm gonna be the first one privileged to a second pellet."\nHe feinted an affected pause and turned even more complacent, on seeing Wang Di and Wang Manyun put on a weird look.\n"I gather the top ten disciples will be entitled to the Most Refined Royal Pellets. I assume the Youming disciples will take up a big proportion there. All of them will give their pellets to me!"\nQin Shou was such a dumb-ass! Even Wang Di broke into a question in spite of himself.\n"Well, how come you're so sure about yourself?"\n
