Urban: The Taoist Priest Comes Down the Mountain, and Every Mystic Sect Below Bows to Him

Synopsis:

Xu Chen unexpectedly gains the ability to speak with his founding master, inheriting secret arts and the techniques of his sect. He can obtain them all, as long as he completes the tasks the founding master assigns!

To complete one of those tasks, Xu Chen descends the mountain, but accidentally challenges the various schools of the arcane sects below. And so, a great battle among the arcane sects begins.

Xu Chen: I said I didn't do it on purpose. Do you believe me?

The various arcane sects: Get lost!!!!!!!!!!!!

The founding master teaches Xu Chen that fortune-telling costs money, and the fee should be high. Charge too little, and you'll ruin the reputation.

The founding master teaches Xu Chen that feng shui consultations cost money, and the price should be steep. Charge too little, and you'll disrespect the sect's thousand-year legacy.

The founding master teaches Xu Chen that writing talismans costs money: a hundred thousand per talisman. Anything less isn't worth doing.

The founding master teaches Xu Chen that people in their line of work are fated to suffer one of the Five Disadvantages and Three Deficiencies. His master suffered from poverty, so despite being unfathomably profound, he spent his whole life destitute.

Everyone asks: Xu Chen, which one did you get?

Xu Chen turns away with a desolate look and says nothing.

The various arcane sects nearby say: He's got a curse. A really bad one...
