The Taoism Grandmaster
Episode 9
The rule was made
to reduce mutual attack.
Unexpectedly,
it leads them
to this desperate situation.
The way you act is like the way you speak,
without any thinking.
Chief.
Can we stop the trial
or change the rule?
The design of this trial
is imperfect.
I agree with the Sword School.
What do you think, Chief?
But...
Just shut up.
In the Dreamland,
all competitors are young elites
from the Immortal's World.
Your disciples are also included.
Do you want all of them
to be weeded out?
Then who will finish the Taoism Trial Competition?
I...
I'm not saying that I don't agree.
Chief,
what do you say?
Chief,
Kunlun can't go on anymore.
He's the hope of Alliance of Five Great Mountains.
You can't let him
sacrifice here.
Master of Berserk,
say something.
Whatever Chief's decision is,
I'm fine with it.
Continue the trial.
Chief,
don't you care about Kunlun's life?
The rule has been set,
and it can't be changed because of any single person.
Otherwise, this battle
would become meaningless.
Besides,
this is the last chance for them
to learn how to conquer death.
Therefore,
the trial can't stop.
Looks like they're doomed to lose.
Will all of them sacrifice here?
Take out the Change of Destiny.
Check out if they can survive this.
Do it as a practice.
Okay.
- Qianqiu. - Qianqiu.
Qianqiu,
can you hold on?
Giant Golden Bell
is Qianqiu's core magic treasure.
It is linked to Qianqiu.
If the Bell gets melted by the witch fire,
Qianqiu would be badly hurt.
How long can he hang on?
Two hours at the most.
By then, Qianqiu has to withdraw the Bell,
or his life will be in danger.
Two hours later,
we will have to
face Wolf King I
and the large demon army again?
How many of us are left right now?
The bleeding is stopped.
I've done everything I can.
Thank you, Xiao Yu.
Can Yu hold on for eight hours
until the gate is opened?
I'm afraid he can't.
How long?
Four hours at the most.
There must be some way to save him,
or to make him hang on a bit longer.
Think about it! You must know!
Stop.
We should let him die.
Mei Kongyun,
how can you say that?
As 45 competitors are here,
plus Kunlun, Yun Qi,
Ju Xiong, You Bufan, and Long Ying,
50 competitors are left.
As long as he's dead,
there will be 49 competitors.
Then the fifth trial will end.
What do you want?
Let's think about it.
We have six hours
before the gate is opened.
But Qianqiu's Bell
will lose efficacy two hours later.
It means that
we need to figure out some way
to go through the six hours.
But according to our experience,
we can survive for two hours
under the attack of Wolf King I
and the demon army.
How can we go through six hours?
The only way
is to end this trial as soon as possible.
Among us,
someone has to use the Reset Ring
or sacrifice.
I wanna ask.
Is anyone willing to be knocked out?
Looks like there has to be an internal strife.
Mei Kongyun from the Sky School of the Northern Desert,
is too evil within.
To sacrifice oneself
for the greater good
is indeed a good idea.
No.
There must be some other way.
Yu must not die,
or I will annihilate the Sky School.
I got it!
How's it?
The trial has a bug.
But I don't know
who can find it out.
Just as I thought.
We have only one way,
that is,
to kill Han Yu.
Or we should kill you first.
Stop!
I'm willing to be knocked out.
Feifei.
Finally,
there's hope for Yu!
Feifei,
are you sure?
This is the best way
to save Senior Disciple
and avoid internal strife.
Feifei.
What are you doing?
This guy again?
I knew he would stand out.
Remember the rules of the trial?
Don't you?
I wanna review them
to see if my memory is correct.
Have you got any idea?
If you want to save Kunlun
and protect others from any hurt,
just tell me right now.
The rules are
competitors should
stay at the city during the Arche War
until the gate is opened
six hours later.
Whoever goes through the gate
passes the test.
But during this period,
if there're only 49 competitors left in town,
the trial will cease
and they will pass the test
to be competitors of the Taoism Trial Competition.
That is to say,
there're two key points.
The first is there should be 49 competitors left.
The second is we should go through the east gate.
But，
the east gate will be
opened eight hours later.
Why do we have to wait
for it to be opened?
We can open a gate
anytime we want.
What do you mean?
I mean，
we can blow the gate up
if we can't open it.
Blow it up?
Will we violate the rules?
Feifei just repeated the rules.
Blowing up the gate is not a violation of the rules.
Explode the gate.
Let's put away our weapons
and hear what he says.
Han,
I was forced by the situation
to say that.
Don't blame me.
Everyone takes out
your magic treasures.
See if there's anything we can use.
Sure.
We didn't set the rule of
forcing them to stay in town
for 12 hours.
The rascal
is not violating any rule.
But,
we intended to
let them fight against death
and conquer it by themselves
on a real battlefield.
The rascal is exploiting the loophole.
Such an opportunist
should be knocked out of the trial.
But we made the rules.
It's not a violation.
They can't be knocked out.
Chief,
if they escape through the east gate,
will they pass the test?
Yes,
they will.
It's not easy to
go through the gate
within 12 hours.
There is hope for Yu now.
Tian Xin, you have so many magic treasures.
Don't forget
Qianqiu is the boss of the Untrammeled School.
These Thunder Beads
are enough to blow a hole on the gate.
By the way,
do you have anything
that can hide us?
Yes.
This is the Magical Fire of Invisibility.
Once it is lighted,
it makes you invisible.
- And people - Nice!
who touch the fire holder
directly or indirectly
can vanish in front of enemies.
That's incredible!
How many do you have?
Ten.
The Fire has a certain limitation.
Every single fire
can only last for two hours.
If it is wiped out,
it can't be lighted again.
Besides,
every fire can hide
no more than 12 people.
How long will it take to reach the east gate?
At least four hours.
Feifei,
I found Senior Disciple.
Really? Where is he?
I saw witch fire
burning a house in the south.
He must be there.
It takes about two hours to get there.
How long do we need from the house to the gate?
About two hours as well.
All right.
Here are 45 competitors,
who need eight fires to the east gate.
And the two fires left will be used to save Kunlun.
One squad goes to the gate,
the other to the house.
I believe if we stick with the plan,
all of us
can leave the Dreamland without any damage
or anyone left.
Just let the dame stones
to decide
who's gonna be washed out.
Okay.
Let's call it a deal.
Sure,
I'm going for Senior disciple.
Kunlun has saved my life
before.
I need to return the favor.
I'm going with Feifei.
Not just you,
he also saved me.
I'm going with you.
And me.
Changfeng,
you can't go with us.
Follow me.
Changfeng,
I have an important mission
for you.
I only trust you on this.
Within four hours,
you must prevent them from blowing up the gate.
If we alert the enemy,
we can't reach the gate
after saving Kunlun.
Our lives are in your hands.
Trust me.
I will do everything I can
to prevent the explosion
until you come back.
Great.
Go search!
There.
Go.
Burn them down!
Kunlun,
have some water.
Okay?
Ying,
can you hang on?
Not for long.
Burn them down!
I'm losing control.
Get ready!
The block is collapsing.
Yun Qi,
be the Taoism Seeker for me.
Kunlun!
Let's move.
We're clear.
Kunlun, let's go.
Why are you here?
The Magical Fire of Invisibility.
It can hide us.
We'll blow up the gate.
Can we?
There's no other way to go.
We have to do it.
Let's go.
Don't waste time.
- Go. - Go.
Yu, Yu!
He's not gonna make it.
Let's blow up the gate.
No.
You will kill everyone.
How exciting!
It's not facile to pass.
What a pity.
They're exposed.
Forget it.
It's the best time to go through the gate.
No,
we should wait for Zhang Ling.
Right.
We can't sacrifice others for ourselves.
The Alliance
will never abandon any member.
Yes.
Zhang Ling! Tie Lang!
Feifei, go!
Zhang Ling! Tie Lang!
Go, Tie Lang!
I won't go without you.
- Zhang Ling! Tie Lang! - Go!
-Go! - Release me!
No!
You can't be there.
This way.
- What to do? - Here.
Go, that way!
I run out of Thunder Beads.
Me, too.
Your Invincible Sword.
How can it help us
with a large army outside?
Have you heard about
one who drown to death
can come back to life
if he's rescued in time?
So what?
We are not holding up for long.
I will jump into the well.
This way,
there will be 49 competitors
left in this city.
Then you can safely escape
through the gate.
You said
all of us will go through the gate.
Of course.
Once the demon army disappears,
pull me out of the water
and do whatever you can
to save me.
What if I couldn't?
What are you doing?
If I die,
I'll become a ferocious ghost
to haunt you.
Really? You're joking now?
I'm not joking.
Listen.
Tell you a secret.
I can't swim at all.
But,
I can't figure out other ideas.
Zhang Ling!
Are you okay?
Qianqiu.
The battle of Five Great Mountains ends finally.
49 competitors
of the Taoism Trial Competition
finally appear.
Has anyone used the Reset Ring
or been killed?
Zhang Ling! Tie Lang!
Feifei!
Zhang Ling.
Zhang Ling! Zhang Ling!
Zhang Ling!
Zhang Ling, Zhang Ling!
Zhang Ling, wake up!
Zhang Ling!
Wait for me.
I'll find someone for you.
What?
How can he die?
You idiots
haven't found him dead?
Are you crying?
No,
why would I cry?
It's impossible.
Tie Lang!
Tie Lang, Tie Lang.
Are you alright?
Help Zhang Ling.
He drowned himself in the well to save us.
What?
He drowned himself?
Kill everyone in the City of No Tears.
Now!
Does it mean...
Interesting. I like it.
The trial is not finished.
It's not finished!
Zhang Ling is alive!
Kill!
The combination of swordsmanship from Five mountains!
Zhang Ling,
sorry.
I'm late.
Why didn't you leave the Dreamland?
I may sacrifice
in vain.
50 competitors.
No one should be left.
Move!
We can't hang on for too long.
Move!
Look.
We're out!
Great! Good!
We made it! Let me see.
We're out of danger now.
We escaped!
Great!
My wounds healed.
How about you?
These kids
have grown a lot.
I hate it!
Hate what?
I hate their laugh.
I hate their cheer.
I hate all of them.
Queen,
are human really abominable?
They're not.
Then why did the Wolf's World
try to eliminate them
and declare war against the Three Realms?
Because their hearts could become horrible.
Demons have to kill human
for the need of surviving.
Everyone,
please listen.
The fifth trial of the the battle of Five Great Mountains ends.
Among 56 original participants,
6 people were washed out
and 50 people completed the trial.
Great!
It's good!
Yes! Yes!
We made it! Yes!
Tie Lang,
you are a trustworthy battle companion.
You, too.
You are my good battle companion.
Zhang Ling,
why are you always so disconcerting?
Zhang Ling,
I thought you're just clever.
I didn't expect you would
sacrifice for your mates.
No matter where you're from,
I want to make friends
with you.
Tie Lang.
Everyone,
according to the rules,
if the number of competitors is over 49,
you will take the last karma test.
We will use
five-color stones
to pick out the one who will leave.
The stones again.
Please assemble in front of the Taoism Heavenly Palace
right away.
Let's go.
Go.
We can't lose anyone.
It's our choice.
Let's face it
together.
- Go. - Okay.
They
are the fresh troops of the Immortal's World.
Everyone is qualified as the Taoism Seeker.
The purpose of showing
their ability to you
is to give you a warning.
In the Second War,
we have
the ability and determination to win.
No!
General Shadow has been found.
Five chiefs collaborate
for the first time.
No matter how good
your technique of hidden is,
I will beat you into ashes
with my Ten Realms Fingers.
All of you
can't kill me.
A crafty demon.
Catch him.
General Shadow has become millions of beings.
How can you catch him?
His core was damaged by Lady Undead.
He won't live long.
Without him,
the capacity of the Wolf's World
will be impaired.
Now,
it's time
for us to do something we don't want to do.
I know it's not easy for you
to be here.
Whoever gets knocked out
should be proud of himself.
There're 49 white stones
and one black stone
in the cloth bag.
If you get
the black one,
you're out immediately.
The test begins.
Zhang Ling.
The last trial ends.
Zhang Ling
is out.
I'm glad
to be with you guys these days.
Thank you all.
See you guys.
Zhang Ling,
take care.
Take care.
Zhang Ling,
come to the Untrammeled School
for me.
Friend,
I'll go first.
I'm leaving.
I announce
the battle ends now.
All the competitors left
will participate in the Taoism Trial Competition.
You're the hope of the Three Realms.
Zhang Ling,
I got you.
What's the matter? Tie Lang?
You don't want me to go?
Anyway,
we have fought together.
But now you're leaving...
Tie Lang,
I won't be around you in the future.
Don't trust others easily.
Also,
although I can't help you
to get Donghuang Feifei,
I can tell you
what she likes.
She has been spoiled since born.
Money won't satisfy her.
She needs a man
who can make her happy all the time
and show her fresh things.
Besides,
If you can't
narrow the gap
between her father and her,
just be a listener
and accompany her.
Of course, there is the last step.
The last step?
Yes.
You'll have to do it by yourself.
