Degrade from Nobility to a Humble Slave

Nory inconspicuously pulled Zen's sleeve and whispered, "Let's find somewhere else to sit."

The man seemed to cause trouble deliberately, so Nory thought they'd better leave.

Zen didn't acknowledge the rude disciple's demand. He continued to eat his food quietly.

"I told you to get out of my seat. Did you hear me?" yelled the young man. To emphasize his point, the man slammed his hand on the table made of hard rock maple. When he withdrew his hand, a clear palm mark had been imprinted on the table. This disciple must be very strong!

Zen remained unaffected by the man's angry display. He chose to chew his food and pretend as though he didn't care about what was happening around him.

"Pooh!"

When the man received no response, he spat into Zen's plate and sneered, "Haha! Enjoy your meal!"

Before the rude disciple could finish sneering, Zen had kicked his chair back, stood, grabbed the man by the collar, and clenched his left hand as though ready to punch the guy.

At the moment, Nory held Zen's left arm and blurted, "Hey brother, calm down! You are not allowed to fight here. In accordance with the rules of Cloud Sect, disciples who battle with each other will be penalized with a loss of points. The moment you do not have enough points, you will either be kicked out of Cloud Sect or confined in Hell Mountain!"

Hearing Nory's words, Zen relaxed. Ever since his admission to Drizzle Peak, Zen had been informed of the rules governing Cloud Sect. He knew what Nory was saying was right.

Since Zen did not enjoy a high status in Cloud Sect, he had to obey the rules. Both Sean and Master Su had told him this many times.

The young man was apparently prepared to provoke Zen to make him break the rules. Perhaps he intended to drive Zen out of Cloud Sect.

When Zen understood this, he shelved his temper, loosened his grip, and stared at the young man for a moment before saying, "I don't know who ordered you to look for trouble. But to be honest, I doubt if your intelligence is good enough even to be considered as average. I can't believe you would think of such a stupid idea to aggravate me! Since you want a fight, I'll give you a chance to challenge me. How about that?"

Hearing Zen's words, the young man cracked up, "Haha! It's just what I intended to say. So, let's fight in the battle ring, and don't try to escape like a cowardly chicken!"

Cloud Sect had stipulated that disciples could not fight each other privately, or they would be severely punished.
