11 Im Free!
"WHITE NOVA BURST!"
"I GIVE UP!" a middle aged man laying on the ground with charred clothes huffing wildly
"Hehe, How is it? am I strong enough to not shaming this Education Hall?" a light-golden haired boy smiling smugly toward him, that boy wearing the same white robe as the middle aged man without the blue ornament on his shoulder.
"Congratulations Mubai, now you can start your own adventure and not shaming us Education Hall." An Elder wearing a blue colored robe smiling toward Mubai, a hint of pride showing in his eyes.
"Thank you Grand Elder Lan [1]. even though I have to conceal my identity when I'm adventuring and exploring the world, I'll be sure to make myself stronger and make an earth shattering achievement." Grinning happily, Mubai began bragging shamelessly.
"You little monster, you've graduated a year earlier than expected. Now you just an eleven years old boy, but look at your spirit rank." sighing, Elder Lan contemplating wether if his achievement in the past as a 'genius' mean anything In front of this boy In front of him.
'The young surely replace the old.' smiling, the elder feeling happy in his heart that the second prince become strong enough to protect himself outside. At least from threat below spirit king he'll be able to escape unharmed and can fight to a standstill from an ordinary spirit ancestor. As for a threat below that? they just a fish on a chopping board for him.
"You're praising me too much Grand Elder, I'm but a rank 33rd spirit Elder. I'm still far away from the peak." Mubai replied humbly, while laughing merrily inside.
"You little freak, you just a rank 33rd but all of your ring are at thousands of years level! which spirit Elder are like that beside you? Beside, how old are you now?" yelled the grand elder Lan
"Oh come on Grand Elder Lan, you're barely passed a century years old yourself and you're rank 97th super douluo. The great 'Blue Nightmare Douluo', who're you trying to deceive?"
"Stop teasing me kid, you can go to meet the temple master then go meet the Emperor. Only then you can go explore on your own."
"Yes, Grand Elder Lan!" Excited, Mubai Cupping his hand and bowing toward the grand elder then hurriedly went to Temple master's hall.
'This kid, In just 5 years he grow from a little genius to a little monster. looks like the next emperor are already decided...'
...
After facing Sage Temple's Temple Master I went back to meet my father and now I'm preparing to go on a journey!
Woohoo, I'm Free baby!
After pretending to be weaker than I should be, after holding back my capabilities to an ordinary genius level, finally I can grow unhindered!
(A/N: Ordinary genius? come closer, so I can punch you right on the face!)
My rank is just 33rd spirit Elder, but in other thing like my physique cultivation and the 'Nine heaven locking sun' which I start to cultivate straight after I got my first spirit Ring are advancing a huge leap!
My Sky-Destroyer Immortal physique reach a minor completion
Nine Heaven locking sun merit law are already fully cultivated
And none of them are know about this! Bwahahaha you plebeian think that you know about my capabilities?
Think Again!
Bwahahahaha!
"Bai'er, you're back?" hearing people calling me, I turned my body to face him. I see a grey-haired old man wearing a yellow changsan with blue line motives.
"Uncle Yi? Where have you been? I miss you!"
"Haha, shouldn't it me who said that?" Uncle Yi laughed at my antic, whatever I'm happy seeing someone close to me here before I went on my journey.
"Hehe, I've graduated a year earlier than expected. Ain't I a genius?" Muahaha, Praise me! I just showing you all the tip of iceberg of my capabilities, yet I'm already surpassed those so called genius out there!
"Yes yes, my Bai'er is the true genius Indeed. I heard you want to go on a journey? are you sure you don't want to enrolled to Our Empire Royal Academy? you can learn many thing there." uncle yi said while also patting my head
"No, I want to go to spread my wings. A tiger have to learn to hunt on his own after all, beside there's many wonder out there to be explored."
"Then your Uncle here will accompany you In your journey, but only for the first year. Okay? I'll teach you how to survive in this rotten world. Here's a graduation gift from me, use it well. Its a 10m cubic storage necklace."
A spirit tool! I always want to own one, but haven't got any chance to buy one.
"Thank you Uncle!"
Then me and Uncle Yi preparing stuff for our journey, we went on carriage because I insist to enjoy the journey. Our first destination is Gengxin city, the place where the blacksmith association reside. But it placed a bit far from the Royal Capital and more close to the border, so we will visit Paotai town[2] and Yule City [3] along the way.
...
Finally we arrived at Paotai town, even though it called town, its environments are like a village. it feels too quiet, as if this is a desolate place. I wonder why?
"Uncle, let's rent a room at an Inn. Let us rest on a proper bed tonight." Uncle just giggled hearing my complaint. He then Immediately went to looking for an Inn, while I'm exploring the town on my own. Uncle are not worry about my safety because through the necklace that I wear he can also detect my location.
I'm walking through a place that looks like a market but unlike my expectation about market, its not bustling with people.
"Tell me! why do you want to be a soldier?!"
"To protect Our Empire! To protect Our Home! To protect our loved ones!"
When I passed a decent sized building, I heard a shout that Immediately followed by another many shouts. Curious, I peep through the window. Inside, I see a middle-aged man wearing a grey vest and a bunch of kids forming a few lines.
"Tell me! What are the qualities of a soldier?!" the middle-aged man shouting again with a loud voice.
"Modesty, Honesty, Pity, Bravery, Fairness, Sacrifice, Honor, Dedication, Love, Justice!" Those kids answered almost Immediately after his shout.
"Good, you have been training for good three years. Today is the day of your advancement examination, those who achieve a level of 10th rank spirit scholar or higher, you will advance and can stay to train. Let's start!"
Then that man call several name at once, I don't bother to hear which name he calls. Several Kids go forward and place their hand on a low quality spirit measuring crystal.
Then the result of one kid surprising me
"Wait, isn't that...?"
[1] mean blue
[2] mean Fort
[3] mean Entertaintment
