Sweating hard, it's only been a week after he joins the sect but being in the limelight made the matter worse for Braddy. People keep comparing him to the other Clan new inner disciple recruits. His Seniors told him not to mind them and just relax but how can he do that? Braddy is a prideful man who always stands above someone. He likes being the center of attention the most, a very typical trait of a young master. So he tends to get burned out and exhausted for no particular reason and his progress is worsening day by day. This made him even more angrier.

A Senior of his, Leol, is very kind to him. Supporting him and patiently tutoring him. He is very thankful to him. Leol is a famous sect leader's favorite core disciple yet he extends his hand to Braddy, a simple inner disciple. People gossips that maybe Senior Leol sees something in him and helps him boost his morals. With Senior Leol guidance,Braddy can only soar higher.

Of course, an outer disciple like Shekki will not have the time to guess what the inner disciples are doing. She can only tend her little grass garden and earn her spirit coins. After a month, she broke in Red Sea Rank 3rd Layer. Shekki stretches and yawns. "3rd Layer...if I broke into 4th layer, I can apply for transfer right? Is inner disciple life better than outer disciple?"

Shekki, who only wants to play more and worry less, wonders if she should continue leveling up. After thinking about Braddy retaliating against her with his Senior brother's help she is more fired up to start her cultivation.

"Can't die. Can't die." She said happily.

Watering the spirit grass Shekki finds it stranger and stranger.

"Why is my spirit grass glowing?" She shrugged her shoulders and continued watering it. After she is done she starts cultivating. If she has a tutor she won't be cultivating in this place where there mana is fewer. But since she has no idea. Anywhere is fine with her. Didn't she get the same result after all. She is not anxious about getting stronger for fame or recognition so her advance is smoother than others. If she doesn't need strength she will be more lax. But since her life is not in the clear she rather worked hard now than to be sorry later.

She opens her eyes to eat lunch. Then she just stroll around feeling bored. Even though this is about a cultivation novel, it sure is quiet and uneventful. Thinking about the story line again. The novel is called Malicious heart. The protagonist is actually a pitiful soul. From young, his father treated him like air. His father favored his older brothers and never cared for him. Because of that, he grew insecure about his self worth.

When the protagonist is 6 years old, he witnessed a demon killing a human. The demon tried to kill him but fascinated with his greed and his pain, the demon didn't kill him instead he made him a demon himself.

Day by day the demon power is growing inside of him. This world which discriminates demons will never forgive him and kill him if they find out.

The protagonist's meet a sage. This sage has no prejudice and sees him struggling with demonic power. Instead of killing him, he feels pity and teaches the boy to subdue the demon within him and to walk to the path of immortality. The protagonist's finally have some warmth and he treats the sage like his own father.

After years of cultivating with the sage he finally reaches Wind Rank 5th layer. It is the fastest leveling the sage ever seen. He praises the boy but also envies the boy. Succumb with greed, he tried to kill the boy and take over his body but with the demonic blood within him, the protagonist's survive.

Hurt. The protagonist's swear to get revenge to everyone that hurt him and to never trust anyone again. He wishes for power and domination. He will do his best so nobody can reject him even though he has a part demon.
