The villain and I have eight hundred minds combined

"Axin, I've been feeling so much pain lately. I don't want to practice magic anymore... I'm really tired, I want to leave..." Young Tang Huanyun and young Lu Xin both hugged their knees and huddled in the corner of the darkroom, talking in low voices.

Young Lu Xin was determined and unyielding since childhood. He advised Tang Huanyun: "But if we practice well, we can leave this place and go to a better place to practice advanced magic... If we give up halfway, all our previous efforts will be wasted."

Little Tang Huanyun cried aggrievedly: "But...but I feel so painful every day. Practicing magic and being an immortal is not fun at all. I don't want to play anymore."

"Huanyun, how are we going to make a living after we get out? Why don't we work harder and go to a better place? I heard the gatekeepers mention that they will send those who pass the assessment to the cultivation sects. There are mountains, waters, and immortals there. It's so beautiful!"

Xiao Tang Huanyun was somewhat moved, but soon he looked frustrated and whimpered softly: "Wu... No, Xin, I'm not as good as you. Being able to cultivate a spirit core is already my limit. I definitely can't go to a beautiful place."

"How could that be?" Lu Xin encouraged him, "I have heard adults say 'God rewards hard work' since I was a child. I believe that as long as you work hard, you will be able to enter the world of cultivation and become a real immortal, punishing evildoers and eliminating evil!"

"Axin..." Xiao Tang Huanyun's eyes turned red from crying. She looked up at Lu Xin with red eyes, but hope was burning in her eyes.

"Pfft" At this time, a child nearby couldn't help laughing after hearing their conversation.

The two turned around and saw a kid named Yao Yue. He was the first to cultivate a spirit core and was better at magic than other people. He laughed at them with indifference in his eyes, "You two are not so stupid as to believe what those people say. If the cultivation world is really recruiting new apprentices, why do they have to act secretly in this dark room? Did you see the numbers on your necks?"

As Yao Yue spoke, he pointed to a magic mark on his neck, on which the number 32 was clearly written.

This number was engraved on their necks by magic when they arrived, but no one knew what it meant. Seeing the two of them looking confused, Yao Yue sneered and said, "This is the code name of the container. I am container number 32, you, Lu Xin, number 18, and you, Tang Huanyun, number 19. Do you understand?"

Tang Huanyun asked in confusion: "Container? What container?"

Lu Xin's expression showed astonishment, and he had a bad feeling. Although he was still young, he knew that this was not a good word.

"There are so many monsters and demons in this world, and there are only a few sects in the world of cultivation. How can we get rid of them all? That's why those people want us kids to learn magic from a young age so that we can be used as containers for the monsters!" Yao Yue said fiercely.

The two looked horrified.

"The more outstanding you are, the greater the probability of being used as a container. Lu Xin, you are not really that stupid, are you?" Yao Yue asked back.

Tang Huanyun was so scared that he was shaking all over. He didn't even want to know how the adults would make them into containers. At that moment, his legs went weak and his only thought was to escape from here!

"And you, Tang Huanyun, you are timid and afraid of things. I advise you to run away. If you really pass the assessment, you might be selected by them. Then you won't be able to run away even if you want to!" Yao Yue said to Tang Huanyun again.

Tang Huanyun hugged his knees and huddled into a ball, feeling cold and shivering all over. His face was pale, and he lowered his head and said nothing.

"Don't scare him! I don't know whether what you said is true or false. Practicing magic and exorcising demons is what I want in my heart. No matter where I go, I will persist in practicing and will never slack off!" Lu Xin stood up, frowned, and yelled at Yao Yue.

"You are such a stubborn person!" Yao Yue was shocked and angry. "Forget it, do whatever you want. This is a secret I overheard. Anyway, I have already told you."

What Yao Yue heard was not completely false, but he only overheard a few words. What he heard was "There are too many evil spirits...it can't contain them...the child...use him as a container."

How could such an outstanding person be the miserable container? Yao Yue felt that only discarded trash would be used as a container, so he made up his mind and decided to "tell" the strongest competitor among the group of children - Lu Xin, telling him false information to the contrary, so that he would retreat. In this way, he would be the only one who passed the test.

However, things went against his wishes. Lu Xin did not listen to his guidance at all and insisted on continuing to practice, even working harder than before. However, one night later, something unexpected happened.

Tang Huanyun sneaked out of the darkroom in the middle of the night.

He must run, even if he has to survive alone, he doesn't want to be a container!

As he ran, he secretly rejoiced. He was even more curious as to why the door of the darkroom could be so easily broken by magic and why he could escape so easily. When he was wondering, he suddenly felt a murderous aura behind him. He was so scared that his whole body froze. When he looked up again, he saw two men in black clothes and masks falling from the sky. They were the people who supervised their practice every day!

He was so frightened that his legs went weak and his eyes instantly turned red, but he was still prepared to use all his strength to knock the two men down. The two men stood straight, not saying a word, as silent as a night crow hanging on a tree branch in the middle of the night, which was creepy.

After a while, the two said in a low voice: "Those who escape will die."

Tang Huanyun felt his throat being strangled, and he was so scared that he immediately pushed out a palm. In a flash of inspiration, the two men quickly dodged like ghosts, and then they attacked from both sides, and each of them slapped him with a palm!

His eyes widened. He didn't expect the two men to be so fast. It didn't take much effort for two adults to knock down a child. His heart suddenly stopped, and at that moment he knew that his death was approaching.

However, at the moment he closed his eyes, Lu Xin suddenly flew over as if he had crossed the mountains and seas, and walked in the air!

He actually only used the wooden sword he used during training. A flash of spiritual light appeared between his two fingers, and spiritual energy attached to the sword. He quickly spun the sword and attacked. Spiritual light suddenly appeared all around like stars. There was a loud "bang", and the stars exploded. Fire was shot out, blinding people for a moment. Tang Huanyun immediately closed his eyes and prostrated on the ground. The two men actually couldn't withstand the starlight, so they subconsciously closed their eyes and raised their elbows to step back.

In just that instant, Lu Xin stabbed the two men in the chest with two quick, fierce and accurate swords almost at the same time!

Blood spurted out. The two men trusted the child too much and didn't even intend to use 20% of their strength. Who could have thought that a carelessness and contempt would lead to the loss of their lives in just a blink of an eye.
