…
For the past 5 years, Old Wang has been busy with a lot of things. Ever since he lost Xin Ja as his student, the old man was so regretful that he decided to return to the academy, and also to the Runemaster's guild.
It's maybe because of his regret that he decided to once again teach, but also his way of alleviating his feeling of being responsible for the child. At that time, he truly saw Xin Ja as a genius and a very promising runemaster at a very young age.
And so he did what he could to help the young man especially when he discovered that Xin Ja is actually a unique cultivator. Instead of pure Ki, that young man would actually absorb chaotic Ki.
As Old Wang looks at Xin Ja entering the academy he felt contented. He is happy that his student is very independent and relies on his own to solve his own problems. At this time, upon thinking to that Hu Wanxiong, Old Wang's eyes turned serious.
In fact, when he noticed that Xin Ja is about to make a move, he did not have to stop the young man. However, how could he let the young man get into trouble? He had seen those two teachers hiding from the rooftop. It would surely be troublesome if they tell what had happened to the town's enforcers.
Plus, that guy could be a source of training for Xin Ja. That way, the young man could successfully face society and be aware of the hidden dangers in the world outside.
After the figure of Xin Ja disappear, Old Wang also turn around and left.
Meanwhile, Xin Ja has walked with the crowd and soon reaches a building inside the academy. The building is huge with many seats around. In the middle, there are four platforms that look like a fighting stage.
In the middle of each platform there stood a weird stone about 1 and a half meters tall.
"Is that a measuring stone?" a young man asked the one beside him.
"Yeah, I think so… But we're all 1st level Ki fighters in here, why do they need a measuring stone?" the young man who was asked replied.
"Stupid… That's not a measuring stone. That is elemental affinity gauge… It gauges how strong your affinity to any particular elements… It is said that those who have a very high affinity to a particular element could be easily taught. They are easily groomed and could be the focus of nurturing… You can call them geniuses of a particular aspect."
"Oh, I heard of such a thing before… Then there might be geniuses in our midst, right?"
"I could be considered as one. I have a high affinity with water…" a young woman said with a proud smirk.
"A genius my ass… You're still a 1st level Ki fighter just like us, how could you be a genius?" someone mocked her.
"Humph…" she did not have any retort and just folded her arms and then shifted her gaze away from the group.
At that time, the direction she shifted her gaze is towards Xin Ja.
When their eyes met, she was a bit mesmerized by the blue eyes staring right at her.
Sensing the gaze of the young woman, Xin Ja just nodded his head and shifted his gaze away. How could he just continue watching her?
The woman has a petite body and is a bit attractive… however, she is not as beautiful as Yao Xue. But her height is a bit tall… well she is taller than Xin Ja who is around 1.72 meters tall.
As the group of young people began discussing below the four platforms, a few people began walking up the stages and on their hands, they are holding are some scrolls.
The people began calling out names and young people began walking up the platforms.
Xin Ja noticed the crystal stones changing colors according to the elemental affinity of a certain person.
Red for fire, blue for water, brown for earth, and silver for wind, are the most common elements present. Some have a combination called mutated elements, like lightning which is a mutated combination of air, water, and fire into one single element. But that is very rare, and out of the thousands of young people in here, so far only one showed such an element.
And that particular youth has already attracted the eyes of the many in the surroundings.
An elder even approached the guy and asked.
"How come I have never seen you before? If you have such a good talent, you should have enrolled in the school a bit sooner…" he asked with a hint of disbelief and agitation in his eyes.
"Umm… My… my parents told me that I'm just a waste are even at my age I'm still a 1st level Ki fighter…" the young man said with a hint of shyness in his eyes.
The elder shook his head as he realizes the norms in the town.
Luckily the kingdom has sent such a proclamation to its whole citizen, if not then they might have lost out to such a talent.
The elder showed a faint smile on his face.
"From now on, you follow me… okay?" he said with an amiable smile.
"Hey, hey… That was an underhanded move elder Kwon…" suddenly another middle-aged elder wearing the same dark blue robe step forward.
"Yes, I thought you're just complementing the lad… I did not expect that you would suddenly pouch him. What would an Alchemy Master Elder like you do to such a student who has lightning mutated elemental root?"
"Hey… hey… stop it, you guys. Let the young man choose for himself, okay?" one of the most sensible elders stopped the argument almost immediately.
The elders began to show off in from of the young man with the mutated elemental root. But in the end, he followed the first elder who showed him the courtesy and he became the young man's master. The two left in front of many envious eyes.
Not long later, it was already Xin Ja's turn to test his elemental affinity. As soon as he touched the crystal, he noticed that the crystal showed four colors with the same strength of brightness. When the one recording the proceeding saw this… his head shook and a frown appears on his face.
"Sigh… not only does he have a trashy cultivation level, he even has a medium level affinity to all elements… what a waste." The man muttered in a low voice.
Although his voice is low, Xin Ja and some people could still hear him. This made the face of Xin Ja blush in shame. He just walks down the platform and stood with the group who are waiting for the next test.
Deep inside his heart, he feels a bit dejected and a hint of doubt rose up in his consciousness.
"I have four elements alignment… and at a mediocre level at that." He muttered to himself.
The person beside him shook his head and then patted his shoulder.
"Friend, you should not feel down. You should always look at life like it is a passing cloud. Some days you are happy and some days you are sad. In this world, there is no constant… only change. So cheer up!" the young man said.
Xin Ja was a bit taken aback.
The young man beside him has a smiling and friendly expression. From the way he is dressed, one could say that the guy seems to belong to a well-off family, but he is not that overbearing or rude. In fact, one could feel friendliness around the guy.
"Tha… thank you…" Xin Ja said.
After hearing the words of the young man, he feels a bit calm now. He did not expect that such help would arrive in times of his troublesome emotion. Well, in fact, if he looks back in his life… most people who came to help him, came when his emotion is really down and out.
He did not help anyone when it comes to any physical aspect. What he truly needs is emotional support, and that is what he cherishes the most. From his father to his masters, he knows that they are all there for him.
"I'm Qing Joming…" the young man suddenly introduces himself.
"I'm… I'm Xin Ja…" Xin Ja replied a bit hesitant.
He was afraid that the guy would suddenly lose interest in becoming his friend once he knew that his name.
Then, upon hearing his name, the expression of the young man changed. He looks at his left and right and then in a lower tone, he whispered.
"You are Xin Jong's son?"
Feeling a bit weird out by the reaction of the young man, Xin Ja subconsciously nodded his head.
Upon seeing his answer, a wide smile appears on Qing Joming's handsome face.
"Haha… You and I are going to be the best buddies from now on… If you have any problem, just tell me." Qing Joming said while wrapping one of his arms on Xin Ja's shoulder as if they are already best of friends.
"Joming… What kind of crap are you thinking now?"
Suddenly a stern tone interrupted the two as a beautiful young woman clothed in Ogden academy uniform walks in.
