Chapter 368: Sparring (Part Two)
Those trainees all stopped what they were doing, came over, and gathered around.
Luo Yi introduced, “This is my bro, he’s in the 54 cards now.”
He also showed off that mental illness certificate Xu Cheng had, and those trainees all looked over at Xu Cheng with envy and worship and began calling him Senior Brother, making it super awkward for Xu Cheng.
It seemed like the certificate he got was something super glorious to have, and Xu Cheng really wanted to ask what was going on with this world.
In fact, it wasn’t too surprising why these guys were so enthusiastic. They were pretty curious as to what kind of missions the 54 cards got to go on, but normally, those senior brothers wouldn’t come here to communicate with them, and most of them didn’t even know who the 54 cards were. Although they had many questions, they also didn’t know who to ask. So, Luo Yi was pretty proud when he brought Xu Cheng over.
Being surrounded, Xu Cheng felt quite awkward so he could only smile.
“Senior Brother, are there a lot of powerful masters outside of this country?’
Xu Cheng thought for a second and said, “Yeah, but I haven’t met any yet. Those powerful masters of different countries are probably hiding. Unless there’s something major, normally it’s very hard to run into a master.”
“Senior Brother, what kind of mission have you done?”
Xu Cheng smiled and said, “That’s confidential. All of the missions executed by the 54 cards are confidential.”
The trainees nodded in understanding. It was just like how they were cut from the outside world after they came in to train. Nothing in here could be leaked to the outside world.
“Senior Brother, what’s your card?” then, a trainee asked curiously.
Xu Cheng said, “2 of Diamonds.”
Just then, someone said, “I heard the Diamond Division is the weakest of the four, and 2 is the smallest. Senior Brother, don’t be mad, I’m not looking down on you, but can I spar with you? Since the 2 of Diamonds is the smallest of the 54, I just want to see how far away I am to being able to join the ranks.”
The others all nodded and agreed, “Senior Brother, please advise.”
“Uhh… that’s not necessary, right?” Xu Cheng felt it would be a little overkill.
Li Wei and Luo Yi all looked at him pleadingly and said, “Big Brother Cheng, we just want to spar and see how far away we are from the official Dragon Division ranks. These guys have all been here for a long time, and they are all making progress everyday. However, they don’t know when they will be able to enter the 54 cards. In the past, they also haven’t seen any senior brothers fight, let alone spar with them. They couldn’t make any comparison at all and don’t know when they would be qualified to join. You are the first senior brother that came in and are willing to talk to us, so the opportunity is really rare for us.”
Xu Cheng also saw that these people didn’t look down at him at all, or else they wouldn’t be calling him Senior Brother so enthusiastically. Just then, Bei Shan came back and saw Xu Cheng being surrounded by the newbies. He immediately summoned the 5 of Diamonds not far away from him and said, “How about I get your 5 of Diamonds Senior Brother to come and spar?”
The 5 of Diamonds smiled, walked over with Bei Shan, and said, “Come on, I will spar with you guys.”
Everyone looked at the 5 of Diamonds. It was 3 numbers higher, and in the 54 cards, each number gap actually had quite a significant difference, so they became a bit hesitant and said, “I think we will pass on that… No matter how confident we are, the gap is still way too big, just let Senior Brother 2 of Diamonds spar with us…”
