" Father I'm a bit anxious "" Silly, why should you be. If you are anxious how do you expect the others to feel, you should know that your swordplay is the best and those that can match you can be counted with my fingers! "Hearing this, a young lad's face suddenly became bright with a somewhat cheeky smile.Seeing this a middle aged man who stood beside him shook his head helplessly." Brat, so that's what you wanted, you just wanted me to praise you?! "" It always feel pleasing when i hear you say it " the lad said with a more radiant smile on his face.&
"Begin!"" *Inhale* " Lee who had been anxiously waiting took in a deep breath and then, immediately entered into a meditative state clearing his mind of every thought whatsoever.Seeing that the ceremony had officially began, Lee's father couldn't help but clench his already sweaty hands under his sleeves, while a nervous glint flashed across his eyes.**********" Hu la! Hu la! "Like the sound of rushing waters, dense energy began to pour out of the energy outlandish stones and was getting absorbed by the hungry bodies of the participants.************The process was extremely long and so it took several hours before they began to see results.The first to succeed was a young man with pale yellow eyes added to his lean and lanky body
The area around Lee had suddenly become barren as not only was the energy outlandish stones in Lee's section swimming towards him, but every other outlandish stones that contained frigid energy. Frigid energy which had suddenly become berserk poured into Lee's body nonstop and the crowd couldn't help but worry about Lee, if he continued in such pattern he might explode of taking in too much energy.Clan head Skyfire who always had an indifferent expression on his face had suddenly become gloomy, he clenched his fist so hard that his finger pierced the flesh of his palm and blood began to slowly drip.If it wasn't for the fact that it was entirely disastrous to disrupt Lee from his cultivation, he would have slapped Lee out of his meditative state." Strange!" Grindsea couldn't help but ponder, he had previously been disappointed whe
"I'm highly honoured" Lee smiled as he bowed once again, it had been has he expected, he wasn't proud but he knew his talent was topnotch and only those with bloodlines could outmatch him.Elder Chu's face had become terrible to behold, never had he expected that Lee who he had assumed to have either ended up dying or even cripple himself suddenly escape the calamity and come out victorious!"Clan head Skyfire i congratulate you, i had always known that Lee would emerge the best!" Elder son's voice suddenly rang out as he smiled at Lee's father."Shameless Bastard!" Elder chu clenched his hands into fists under his sleeves to abate his anger, as he stared venomously at Elder Son who suddenly appeared to have been on Skyfire's side all the time, if it wasn't for his position as an elder and the importance of the ceremony to his clan, he would have sliced
The sun rose from the horizon smiling brightly, pouring down its resplendent light on the earth, trees gently swaying to the lyrics of the morning wind, and plants joyfully absorbing sunlight.This beautiful day brought anxiety into the heart of Lee as he walked out of his room, in the beautifully adorned house where the clan head his father resided.He raised his foot and walked towards the extremely popular building in the clan, on his way to the library he received several gazes and greetings filled with respect and awe, he was used to been stared at with such eyes, but know it became more intense with the scene he created yesterday.After few moments, he finally arrived at the huge library, which was a sight to behold, standing at the entrance of the library were soldiers who stood like pillars and stared at
"[Ascending flame sword art]"Lee on seeing the name of the first black scroll, didn't blink an eye before he diverted his gaze away from it.He waited a bit for Springdove to view the second scroll, after few moments the lad shook his head, it seemed he wasn't interested in it."[Wind scattering tornado sword art]" Lee on seeing the name of the second scroll, had a tiny glint of interest flash across his eyes.He then read through it, it enabled one to embark on a destructive sword path, in the sense that one would be able to create formidable sword attacks with the force that equaled that in tornados!Lee nodded his head, and turned his gaze towards the third, it was then that he discovered that he was the only one left among the three, Charles had chosen the first sc
" Azure hurry up!" Lee said towards the cub who passionately devoured the roasted meat that laid before him.Lee stared at the cub silently, and couldn't help but smile, he was extremely lucky to have found it, somehow he knew that both of them would soars the haevens together.Few moments later, Azure could be seeing gently resting in Lee's garment. And then Lee raised his foot and left the courtyard.**********"Father it's pretty rare to see you in the house by this time of the day!" Lee said has he gently stared at his father.Skyfire on hearing this couldn't help but smile bitterly. " I'm sorry son, I know I have not had time to be with you, the affairs of the clan is very arduous, and I can't leave it into th
" No sir I don't" Lee truly didn't know anything, all he knew was they forge metals and weapons but if he told that to the extremely arrogant Master Yang he might get ridiculed."As I expected, this small city has made you ignorant of some basic things" Master Yang arrogantly.Lee felt vexed but didn't dare to say anything."A blacksmith is a treasure in the eyes of big clans and sects who are in possessions of bloodlines, do you know why?!" Master Yang stared at Lee as he questioned."To forge weapons!" Lee said knitting his eyebrows, that was the only thing he could think of, what was the job of a blacksmith.Forging!"Haha!" Master Yang on hearing this couldn't help but burst into laughter which made Lee feel a bit uncomfortable.
"Fellow cultivator I'm Iron Fist" The human giant said as he bowed slightly."I'm Blue. I hope you take it easy on me" Lee said as he also bowed. It was easy for him to defeat the duo because they weren't too strong, not as Youngblood who even could have also defeated them, the man's speed was quite enough.The duo had already left the platform, as for the cultivator with daggers, after been hit by such attack, It wasn't surprising that he passed out."Hmmph!" The human giant only snorted and didn't say anything more, he slammed his gauntlet covered fist together, which disrupted the air a bit, the message was simple, he didn't talk much his fist did the talking!"I think this is the end for this lad!""It's the end. Iron Fist is a usual in the top 16, he isn't going to lose this match!""I place my bet on Iron Fist!"Several voices rang out among the crowd, they seemed to have envisioned Lee crawling out of the platform.Lee took on a battle stance, Iron Fist who had unleashed his my
"I admit defeat!" With despondency in his voice, Youngblood yelled out.Gasps of shock filled the Arena, the duration of time Lee used to defeat the latter was pretty short, it was less than twenty breaths, the others in stage had shock flash across their eyes."Such a lad!""I place my bet on him!"The crowd began to cheer, as to them a new source of money had appeared, it was in this same breath that another scream of pain filled the air."I admit defeat!!" This latter didn't yell with sadness, but pains, his face was badly battered, his garments were drenched with blood, he looked more like a rag doll.When Lee stared at the cultivator who did it, he was no longer shock at the state of the wounded man.The man was a human giant, he was more than burly, each of his arms were like twice of Lee's thighs, he wore gauntlets that were shining like as though light was reflected on it.From what Lee could see the man was a brute, his aura and presence was very intimidating, he hailed the c
"Boom!""Boom!"In few seconds Lee and Youngblood had exchanged several blows, and with every clash, Lee seemed to have the upper hand, Youngblood was beyond shocked he couldn't understand how he a mystical blood injector is been suppressed by a Essence swordsman in body strength!"Boom!"Lee hacked Blueflame towards Youngblood's head who immediately blocked with his heavy sword, the power behind the attack sent him taken several steps backwards."I don't know how you manage to posses such demonic strength, but I tell you I'm going to end this child's play right now" Youngblood snorted. He clenched his fists hard, mustering all the mystical blood power he could handle, the lightning dancing through his eyes doubled, a faint cry of a bird rang out from his throat, his aura had become extremely domineering, he was planning to go all out. It sounds long but all of it happened in few breaths"It's a Lightning Crow mystical blood he absorbed!" Lee muttered slightly under his breath, this b
Lee stared at the wooden token on his hands, and he couldn't help but grin, it was slowly getting closer to the matches, the token was quite similar to the one given to him in the Raging storm palace, it was inscribed with the number '22', the first set of battles that were coordinated in the Arena of heroes were in form of a battle royale, they went in, in groups of varying numbers depending on the amount of participants for each cultivation stage.No matter the amount of participants, the number of groups would not exceed sixteen, but in rare cases could only be lower.For the stage which Lee had registered for which was the fourth stage, they were to go in a group of eight, so this eight would engage in a battle royale, were only one person was needed, so in a group only one winner was needed....…"Citizens of Vine city, another edition of battles is about to occur in the Arena of Heroes, are you excited?!"A very sonorous and energy filled voice rang out throughout the stadium, L
Lee remained motionless for several breaths, the sudden change of events, and the realization that he would have ran mad if his sword totem didn't interfere gave him goosebumps, his robe was wet from sweat as though a bucket of water had been poured on him."If my sword totem hadn't interfered, that is how my mind would have been thrown in chaos, whoever created this is crazy, I bought with my hands what could have almost killed me" Lee couldn't help but shake his head, a part of him was wishing he had let the dark skinned man buy the art."I wasn't traumatized for nothing, at least I ended up creating mental energy" Lee grinned like a Cheshire cat, Lee immediately opened the box containing the needles, he was anxious to test how mental energy worked, he closed his eyes and directed his consciousness towards the mental space which resided in his forehead same as his dantian.Lee wrapped his mind around the floating milky white mental energy ball, it was the first form of mental energy
Lee could be seen seated in a lotus position on a bed in a small room that had only a wooden table and chair, this didn't look like the proper room of Lee in his father's residence. It was with no doubt not Lee's room, after Lee had accepted the Dragon call needles, he had wanted to start cultivating the art, but courtesy demanded him not to, with him not able to fulfill this wish he decided to lose himself in his thoughts and that was what he did till the auction ended, he didn't even know what the main item was, he speedily left the palace and searched around for an inn where he could rent and cultivate the art, it didn't take long before he found one. Lee brought out the scroll and needles from his storage ring, he unfolded the scroll and began to read through the content, it took a while before he digested everything. Lee could not help but shake his head, no wonder cultivators ran mad, you had to place your mind under some certain amount of pressure, it was like placing an heav
The auctioneer smiled upon hearing this, one gold coin wasn't small in any manner, the Fire Limg seed though was rare, but in normal circumstances it shouldn't be sold at such rate, to be able to sell at this rate was a great bonus to her company."Anyone increasing the price?!" The pretty auctioneer said has she increased the loudness of her voice."I guess I have to give up, who knew you desperately wanted the seed" The cultivator in box '20' said with a hint of jeer in his voice.Song Chu's face suddenly became pale, he squeezed his fist tight as anger began to roar in him. He had been played badly, the cultivator didn't have any interest in the seed, he had intentionally dragged with him to increase the price, and then back off when the price had reached an outrageous point, and it worked perfectly, now he had no more chance of struggling with the others for the main material of the day."That bastard, i need to find out who he his, no matter who he is I must make sure I cause tro
The first thing that caught his attention was the open space in front of the box, which represented some sort of window and view for the auction.Lee sat on the wooden seat prepared and stared at the stool beside him that had a wine on it. Lee shook his head, he wasn't quite interested, he had his mind focused on the materials that would showcase in the auction.In few minutes the auction room was already filled to the brim, the most conspicuous sight was the wooden boxes that stood in the auction room, a lot of gazes were directed towards them. Although those in the boxes didn't signify the strongest, it was some sort of means of flaunting your wealth, though not everyone had this intention, some people are so particular of their identities, like Lee is.The air suddenly became relaxed and perverted as the attention of most of the males in the auction was directed towards the platform at their front.A pretty young lady suddenly appeared on the platform. She had fiery red hair with a
The Gathering Point of Vine city, wasn't only comprised of people a group together, there are some certain sights that allured people towards the Gathering point. One of it being the sumptuous building of Raging Storm Palace.A pretty colossal building that was shaped like a rectangle with a hole in the midpoint. There was a circular gap at the centre of the building, leaving an open diameter of space at the top of it, which was covered with long unique iron bars forged by blacksmiths with high class.The Raging Storm Palace was a foreign settlement, that came to Vine city to sell artifacts, pills, weapons and sometimes even some rare mystical beasts. Auctions are only done in Raging Storm Palace when some queer or powerful materials are found, such was what was happening today.Lee was like a grain lost in the sea of humans, that treaded towards Raging Storm Palace
