天蒙蒙亮，杨开就醒了，稍微洗漱一番便拿着墙角边的扫帚走出了独居的小屋。
The sky was bright, Yang Kai woke up, washed a little, took the broom near the corner and walked out of the solitary hut.
站在门口伸了个懒腰，看了一眼天际边浮现的一抹鱼肚白，闭目凝神享受了片刻的安宁，随即睁开眼帘舞动起手上的扫帚，埋头清理着地面的灰尘和落叶。
Standing at the door, stretched a lazy waist, and glanced at the white fish belly that appeared on the sky. close eyes enjoyed a moment of tranquility, then opened his eyes and danced to the broom on his hand, and buried his head to clean the dust and fallen leaves on the ground.
一袭青衣，朴素干净，老成的衣色平白将少年衬托的虚长几岁。杨开的腰杆如标枪一般挺得笔直，即便是在做着最底层的活，脸庞上的神色也一丝不苟。动作很沉稳，捏着扫把的双手并未用多大力，身子甚至都没多大摆动，只凭着手腕的转动，那扫把便如臂使指，莜来乎去，随着他步伐的移动，地面上积攒的灰尘和杂物神奇地跟着动了起来，仿佛平白长了两条腿。
Tsing Yi, simple and clean, the mature clothing color for no reason will set off the juvenile as long as a few years old. The Yang Kai’s waist rod is as straight as a javelin. Even if it is doing the lowest level of work, the look on his face is meticulous. The action is very stable. The hands holding the broom are not used much, and the body is not even swayed. Just by the rotation of hand wrist, the broom is like an arm’s finger, holding it around. As his pace moves, the ground The dust and debris accumulated on it moved magically, as if for no reason had two legs.
杨开是凌霄阁的试炼弟子，三年前进宗门开始修炼，可直到如今也只修炼到淬体三层境界。与他一同入门的师兄弟们早就远远超过这个阶段，各得机缘拜入门中高人座下飞黄腾达去了，他却只能望洋兴叹。
Yang Kai is the Trial Disciple of High Heaven Pavilion. Three years forward Sect started practice, but until now only practice to Body Tempering 3-layer world. fellow apprentices, which he started with, has already far surpassed this stage. He got the chance to fly Huang Tengda from the middle and high seat of pay respects to join, but he can only look forward with sigh.
三年淬体三层，这等资质已经不是用普通二字可以形容的了，简直可以说是平庸至极。
Three years, Body Tempering 3-layer, this class of aptitude is no longer described by ordinary characters, it can be said to be extremely mediocre.
没奈何，杨开只能在宗门内接了个扫地的活，一边维持生计一边苦苦修炼。
Fortunately, Yang Kai can only receive a sweeping job in Sect, and is struggling with practice while maintaining its livelihood.
凌霄阁是个比较特殊的门派，这个特殊体现在门下弟子竞争的残酷上，在这个门派内，有能力者上位，没能力者淘汰，弱肉强食这个铁律在凌霄阁内被演绎的淋漓尽致。
High Heaven Pavilion is a relatively special martial art. This particular embodiment is reflected in the cruelty of hanger-on disciple competition. In this martial art, those who have the ability are high, those who are not able to eliminate, and the iron law of weak meat and strong food is fully interpreted in High Heaven Pavilion.
其他的宗门或许还有些同门友情手足情谊，但是在凌霄阁内没有！想往上爬，唯有踩着那些所谓的师兄弟们的肩膀，踏过他们的鲜血，如此才有资格。
Other Sects may still have fellowship with their friends, but not in High Heaven Pavilion! If you want to climb up, you can only qualify if you step on the shoulders of those so-called fellow apprentices and step on their fresh blood.
凌霄阁门下制严，在整个大汉朝都是赫赫有名，虽算不得什么超级大派，可门下弟子的争斗之残酷却是首屈一指的！也正因如此，弟子们个个武风彪悍，外出行走江湖之时鲜有人敢招惹。
High Heaven Pavilion is strictly controlled under the door. It is famous throughout the Great Han/big person dynasty. Although it is not a superpower, the cruel battle of hanger-on disciple is second to none! Because of this, disciples martial style are sturdy, and few people dare to provoke when they go out and walk.
凌霄阁有个规矩，十四岁以下弟子，无论是谁，从入门起，三年内算是试炼期。这三年时间，吃住穿行皆由宗门负责，弟子只管修炼便可。三年时间内若能突破淬体期，便有资格拜入宗中高手门下为徒，让这些高手教导修炼，当然，也可以不拜师自己修炼，但是修炼一途，有良师教导和自己摸索那是截然不同的。在某种程度上来说，凌霄阁这个规矩倒有些自由。
High Heaven Pavilion has a rule, fourteen years old with Lower Base Disciple, no matter who it is, three years from the beginning of the trial period. In the past three years, time, food, accommodation and travel are responsible for Sect, disciple only practice. If time can break through the Body Tempering period within three years, they will be eligible to be apprentices under pay respects to join Zongzhong Expert. Let these Experts teach practice. Of course, you can also not teach own practice, but practice has mentoring and own. different. To some extent, the High Heaven Pavilion rule is somewhat free.
而那些三年内没突破淬体期的人，要么离开宗门，要么被贬为试炼弟子。
People who haven’t exceeded the Body Tempering period within three years, either leave Sect or be degraded to Trial Disciple.
试炼弟子，便是杨开现在的身份！也是凌霄阁内的耻辱！
Trial Disciple is the status of Yang Kai now! It is also a shame within High Heaven Pavilion!
和普通弟子不同，试炼弟子的生存环境更为苛刻，因为走到这一步，吃穿住行都要自己打理，宗门不会再往你身上浪费任何一份修炼资源。而一旦被贬为试炼弟子，基本上此生就永无出头之日了，除非在短时间内实力大幅度上涨，另宗门觉得你有可以投入的资本。
Different from Ordinary Disciple, the living environment of Trial Disciple is more harsh, because at this step, you must take care of own for food, clothing, and transportation. Sect will not waste any practice resources on you. And once degraded to Trial Disciple, basically there will be no day in this life, unless the strength has risen sharply in the short time, and Sect thinks you have the capital you can invest.
整个凌霄阁三千弟子，而试炼弟子有几人？不过十指之数！杨开有幸成为其中一人！
The whole High Heaven Pavilion is three thousand disciple, and how many are Trial Disciple? But ten fingers! Yang Kai is fortunate to be one of them!
试炼弟子想在凌霄阁内活下去，简直难如登天，就比如说杨开现在居住的小屋，那是他自己一根木头一根木头搭建起来的，小屋顶上破了几个洞都没时间打理，一到下雨天屋内便积水难排。他的衣服是自己买的，他吃的东西是自己弄的，所有的一切都是自己负责。
Trial Disciple wants to live in High Heaven Pavilion, it is really difficult to climb the sky. For example, the cabin where Yang Kai lives now is built by own, blockhead/wood, and blockhead/wood. A few holes in the small roof were not taken care of by time. As soon as it rains, there will be water in the house. His clothes were bought by own, and what he ate was made by own, and everything was responsible for own.
就连小屋的位置，也在凌霄阁最偏僻最无人问津的地方。
Even the location/position of the cabin is in the most remote and unpopular place of High Heaven Pavilion.
如此糟糕的待遇，一般人很难忍受的下去，这也是凌霄阁试炼弟子数量之少的缘故，基本上过了试炼期没有突破淬体境界的弟子，都会选择离开凌霄阁这一条路，可是杨开留下来了。
Such a bad treatment is difficult for most people to endure. This is also the reason for the small number of High Heaven Pavilion Trial Disciple. Basically, after the trial period, disciple that did not break through the Body Tempering realm will choose to leave the High Heaven Pavilion road, but Yang Kai stay Already.
已经被人扫地出门过一次，这一次又怎能如此？
Have been swept out once, how can this time do this?
几个月前被贬为试炼弟子之后，杨开便在宗门内接了个扫地的活维持自己的生计。
After being demoted to Trial Disciple a few months ago, Yang Kai took a sweeping job in Sect to maintain the livelihood of own.
可以说杨开现在既是凌霄阁的试炼弟子，也是凌霄阁的扫地小厮。但这扫地的活，有时候也无法维持杨开的温饱，时不时地饥一顿饱一顿，风寒无人过问，日子过的凄苦伶仃。纵然如此，杨开也没有打过退堂鼓，人生在世，数十年华，自己选择了这条路，就要一直走下去，半途而废可不是男人所为。
It can be said that Yang Kai is not only the Trial Disciple of High Heaven Pavilion, but also the sweeper of High Heaven Pavilion. But this sweeping work, sometimes unable to maintain Yang Kai’s food and clothing, from time to time hungry and full meals, the wind chills no one to worry about, the lives of life are bitter. Even so, Yang Kai has not played back the drums. Life is alive. For decades, own has chosen this path, and it must go on, halfway abandoning the exactly man.
杨开有一股韧性，不撞南墙不回头的韧性！
Yang Kai has a toughness, toughness without hitting the south wall and not turning back!
天渐渐亮了起来，杨开扫了一会地，所过之处干干净净，杂尘清扫一空。
The sky gradually lightened up, Yang Kai swept the ground for a while, and the place where it passed was clean and the dust was swept away.
扫地虽然不废什么力气，可一大早没吃没喝就动了这么久，杨开也是浑身冒着虚汗，这跟实力无关，完全是因为体质太差了。
Although sweeping the floor does n’t waste any energy, it moves for so long without eating or drinking in the early morning. Yang Kai is also sweating with sweat, which has nothing to do with strength, because the physique is too bad.
三餐中有两餐饥，任谁处在杨开这个生活环境中，体质都不会好。
There are two meals in three meals. Whoever is in the living environment of Yang Kai will not be in good health.
身边渐渐围拢了一些凌霄阁的弟子，这些弟子个个都起了个大早，不去修炼却围在杨开的身边，很多人都饶有兴致地打量着杨开，更有人的目光甚是贪婪，就仿佛杨开现在是个一丝不挂的大美女，香气逼人的香饽饽。
Some High Heaven Pavilion disciples are gradually surrounded by them. These disciples all get up early. They do n’t go to practice but are surrounded by Yang Kai’s. Many people are looking at Yang Kai with interest. Some people are very greedy It’s as if Yang Kai is now a naked beauty with an incredibly sweet fragrance.
而这些围聚在杨开身边的凌霄阁弟子之间，也有一股紧张竞争的气氛在蔓延，警惕地打量着身边的师兄弟们，一个个面色不善。
And among these High Heaven Pavilion disciple gathered around Yang Kai, there is also a tense atmosphere of competition spreading, looking at the fellow apprentices and each and everyone complexion around them badly.
人群中有人面露不忍，轻声道：“这么多人，有些过分了啊。”
Some people in the crowd couldn’t bear it, and said softly, “So many people, it’s a little too much.”
当下便有人回道：“你觉得人多也可以走啊，没人要你留下来。”
Sometimes someone replied: “You think you can leave without people. No one wants you to stay.”
一句话便让那人讪讪不言，大家都知道为什么聚集在这里，都知道为什么要盯着杨开，现在就是在等那一刻的到来。时限马上就要到了，现在离去岂不是太可惜？若能抢了头筹，今日就又是一笔收获呀。
In a word, the person was silent. Everyone knows why they are gathered here, they all know why they should stare at Yang Kai, and now they are waiting for that moment. The time limit is approaching soon, wouldn’t it be a pity to leave now? If we can grab the top spot, it will be another gain today.
周旁的动静杨开自然是知道的，只不过他的神色一直未曾变过。这样的阵仗自己每五天就要经历一次，一个月六次，实在没什么好大惊小怪的，而且看眼前这人数也略少了一些，应该是还没全到的缘故。
The Yang Kai news by the side is naturally known, but his look has never changed. The this kind of battle own has to be experienced once every five days, six times a month. There is really no fuss, and it seems that this number is slightly smaller, it should be because it is not all.
所以他一直在扫地，对周旁之人不管不问，一路走一路扫。
So he has been sweeping the floor, regardless of the people around him, sweeping all the way.
随着时间的流逝，聚集在杨开身边的人越来越多，粗略估计至少也有三四十人之多。
With the passing of time, more and more people gather around Yang Kai, and it is roughly estimated that there are at least 30 or 40 people.
杨开突然停了下来，就这么坐在道路中央，缓缓地吸了一口气，恢复着自己大清早消耗的体力。
Yang Kai stopped suddenly, just sitting in the middle of the road, slowly inhaling, and recovered the energy consumed by own early in the morning.
一看这动静，围聚在杨开身边的所有人立马散开，团团将他包围在中间，紧张竞争的气氛陡然拔升到一个新的境界，仿佛连空气都不再流动了。
At a glance, everyone around Yang Kai immediately dispersed, and surrounded him in groups. The tension of competition suddenly rose to a new level, as if the air no longer flowed.
谁也看谁不顺眼，却都期待无比的望着杨开。
Everyone can see who is not pleasing to the eye, but they are looking forward to looking at Yang Kai.
若叫不明真相的人看到此景，只怕会以为被包围在人群中的是个绝顶高手，要不然怎会出动如此多的人数来对付他？可实际上，杨开只是个淬体境三层的试炼弟子而已，在场的任何一个人都要比杨开厉害。
If someone who does n’t know the truth sees this scene, he will be afraid that he is surrounded by a crowd of Expert. Otherwise, how can he send so many people to deal with him? In fact, Yang Kai is just Trial Disciple in Body Tempering environment 3-layer. Anyone present is better than Yang Kai.
“杨开，你就别费心思了，等会乖乖的叫我等揍趴下，大家也省时间不是？”有人看杨开这样子，顿时有些不屑了。
“Yang Kai, don’t bother you, wait for the obediently to call me and wait for me to get down. Everyone can save time?” Some people look at Yang Kai like this, and suddenly disdain.
区区一个淬体三层还恢复做什么？反正都是要输，倒不如干脆一些，何必如此苟延残喘？
What else is going on with an Body Tempering 3-layer? Anyway, you have to lose. Why not be so straightforward?
“是啊是啊，杨开你好歹也体谅一下诸位师兄弟的心情啊，大家跟你可不一样，打完这一场我们还要去修炼呢。”
“Yeah, yeah, Yang Kai, how are you, and also consider the feelings of everyone fellow apprentices, everyone can different with you, we have to go to practice after this game.”
这话说的，好似杨开就应该被他们快速击败，搞的杨开现在恢复体力也象是对他们的不敬了。
This said, it seems that Yang Kai should be quickly defeated by them, and the Yang Kai engaged in recovery now seems to be disrespectful to them.
杨开置若罔闻，犹如老僧入定。
Yang Kai turns a deaf ear, as if an old monk was settled.
时间继续流逝，蓦然，一声悠扬空旷的钟声响起，那是凌霄阁的晨钟，钟声传入所有人的耳中，围聚在杨开身边的弟子们齐齐精神一震。
time continued to pass, and suddenly, a melodious and open bell sounded, that is the morning bell of High Heaven Pavilion, the bell sound came to everyone’s ears, and the spirit of disciples simultaneous gathered around Yang Kai was shocked.
钟响九声，东方旭日升起，又是新的一天！
The bell rings nine times, and the rising sun in the east is a new day!
众人的呼吸陡然平息下去，眼巴巴地瞅着被围在中间的杨开，杨开缓缓起身，提着手上的扫把，淡淡地扫了一眼身边的一圈人。
The crowd’s breathing subsided abruptly, and Yang Kai was surrounded by the eyes. Yang Kai slowly got up, held the broom in his hand, and glanced at the people around him lightly.
“选我啊杨师兄！”有人高声喊道，“我下手很轻的，保证打的你不痛！”
“Choose me Senior Brother Yang!” someone shouted, “I have a light hand, and I guarantee you won’t hurt!”
“放屁！选我，我会给你个痛快，一拳就结束，绝对不浪费大家时间。”
“Fart! Choose me, I will give you a happy, one punch will end, absolutely not waste everyone time.”
“选我……”
“Choose me …”
“选我……”
“Choose me …”
场中一片闹哄哄的，就如市场上的菜贩在推销自己田地里的蔬菜，还比拼着谁更新鲜。
The market is noisy, just like the vegetable vendors in the market are selling vegetables in the own field, and they are more fresh than anyone else.
“杨开，你可莫坏了自己定下的规矩！”有人提醒出声。
“Yang Kai, don’t you break the rules set by own!” someone reminded.
杨开轻笑，随手将拿着的扫把往天上一抛，几十双眼睛齐齐朝上看去，满是期待地等待扫把落地的瞬间，心中一个劲地祈祷着：“选我，选我！”
Yang Kai chuckled, throwing the broom in his hand to the sky, dozens of pairs of eyes simultaneous looked up, expecting the moment when the broom landed, praying in his heart: Me! “
时间仿佛变缓，扫把在半空中打了几个转，旋即落下，在地面上弹了弹，定格不动。
time seemed to slow down, and the broom hit a few turns in midair, then dropped immediately, and bounced on the ground, and remained motionless.
扫把的前头，指向人群中一位身形魁梧的少年。
The front of the broom is pointing to a burly boy in the crowd.
一片惋惜声响起，满是幽怨和不甘。反倒是那魁梧少年，哈哈一笑走出人群，抱拳冲众人笑道：“诸位师兄弟，今日这一战小弟拿下了，还望诸位师兄弟莫怪。”
A regret sounded, full of resentment and unwillingness. On the contrary, the burly young man stepped out of the crowd with a smile, and punched everyone with a fist and laughed: “You fellow apprentices, today’s younger brother won, and I hope you fellow apprentices no wonder.”
“草，狗屎运！”有人嫉妒不已。
“Grass, dogshit luck!” Someone was jealous.
“怎么就选不到我呢，老子每五天都来一次，来了足足一个月了，杨开你故意的吧？”
“Why can’t I be chosen? I come every five days, and it’s been a full month, Yang Kai, are you on purpose?”
“别提了，我来了三个月了，一次都没被选到过！”
“Don’t mention it, I’ve been here for three months and I have never been selected!”
“师兄，你比我惨啊。”
“Senior Brother, you are worse than me.”
“不惨不惨，看好戏便是。”两师兄弟对视一眼，心领神会地笑了。
“It’s not miserable, it’s good to see the show.” The two fellow apprentices glanced at each other and smiled attentively.
场中，其他人已经散开，只留下杨开和魁梧少年互相对视。
In the field, the others have dispersed, leaving only Yang Kai and the burly boy to look at each other.
“试炼弟子杨开，淬体三层！”杨开望着对方道。
“Trial Disciple Yang Kai, Body Tempering 3-layer!” Yang Kai looked at the other side.
“普通弟子周定军，淬体五层！”魁梧少年自报家门。
“Ordinary Disciple Zhou Dingjun, Body Tempering 5-layer!” The burly boy reported himself.
凌霄阁的弟子也是分等级层次的，从下往上便是试炼弟子，普通弟子，座下弟子，精英弟子，核心弟子五大等级。周定军说自己是普通弟子，那便是还未拜入宗中高手门下，未得良师指点。若是突破淬体期拜入宗中高手门下，便是更高一级的座下弟子了。再高一级的精英弟子，个个都是出类拔萃，是从座下弟子中选拔上来的。
High Heaven Pavilion‘s disciple is also hierarchical, from bottom to top, there are five major levels: Trial Disciple, Ordinary Disciple, Lower Base Disciple, Elite Disciple, Core Disciple. Zhou Dingjun said that own is Ordinary Disciple, that is, Expert in the pay respects to join case has not yet been instructed. If it breaks under Expert in pay respects to join in Body Tempering period, it will be a higher level seat Lower Base Disciple. The next higher level of Elite Disciple, all are outstanding, selected from the Lower Base Disciple seat.
而核心弟子，则是凌霄阁下一代的希望，宗内可是将这些人当成未来的接班人来培养的。
And Core Disciple is the hope of the next generation of High Heaven Pavilion. Inner Sect has cultivated these people as future successors.
森然的弟子等级制度，看似不近人情，可却能很好地激发年轻人的血性和竞争意识，这也是凌霄阁残酷制度的根基。
Senran’s disciple rating system, which looks like unreasonable, can well stimulate young people’s **** and competitive awareness, which is also the foundation of the cruel system of High Heaven Pavilion.
而让杨开被无数人争抢局面的根本原因，则是凌霄阁的另外一个规矩了，挑战的规矩。
The root cause of Yang Kai being contested by countless people is another rule of High Heaven Pavilion, a rule of challenge.
