…

"You are Xin Ja… right?" the beautiful and tall young woman asked.

"Yes…???" Xin Ja replied in confusion.

"Ahem… Please… please give this letter to Qing Joming!" the young woman said then forcefully gives Xin Ja a letter then she runs away.

Xin Ja was dumbfounded at what just happened. He then looks at the letter in his hand and frowns as he did not know what is going on.

He then walks to his class and as he enters, Qing Joming is already seated on his seat while browsing through his books.

"Hey… Someone wanted to give this to you…" Xin Ja said as he handed him his letter.

The eyes of Qing Joming suddenly glowed as he accepted the letter.

"Did you open it?" he asked with a serious expression.

"No… of course not…"

"Are you sure?"

"Sigh… this is your problem, not mine…" Xin Ja helplessly said as he got seated.

"Hehe… You did a big ruckus again… did you…" Qing Joming said with a big smile on his face.

"Many are already asking us what kind of potion did you use to cause such an effect and it could only be removed through washing… It was a brilliant defensive potion."

"Hmmm… The news surely travels fast…" Xin Ja muttered.

"Hehe… There are many students, who saw that fight, so how could it not be fast? By the way, is your leg fine? I noticed a lot of blood right there…"

"Yeah, I'm fine… it was just a minor injury."

"Sigh... You are a mere 1st level fighter… How come you're brave enough to fight those stronger than you? Why don't you just be a good guy and relax… Just like me…"

"Pfft…" someone suddenly chuckled behind the two.

When they turn they noticed a bespectacled young girl who suddenly turned shy after she saw the two young men turn their attention at her.

This classmate of Xin Ja is someone who is always quiet and would always work or do her tasks alone. She seems to be very shy and did not like to mingle with others.

"Sorry…" she said as she turns her gaze to the side.

Xin Ja and Qing Joming look at each other and smile. They did not mind the young girl anymore and began talking with each other.

They did not notice the young woman shyly turning her gaze back at the two. And when her sight landed on Xin Ja a slight smile appears on her face.

"He's… cute…" she muttered.

…

One month later…

A day before the War Games, Xin Ja was called to the field along with some other students. They were chosen to be an assistant for the players.

Xin Ja has already gained a name in school after these few weeks for being one of the genius freshmen when it comes to potions.

And because of the special token given to him, he is to watch the practice of the group at least once.

And so he sits on a bench while looking at the field.

As he watches the War Games formation, he once again showed interest. It's like a game of chess but in actual battle. The goal of the game is to take down the captain of the opposite side.

Watching the formations being maneuvered in the field made him suddenly remember what he has learned and seen from one of his lessons in his unique vision.

In that scene, he could see people forming battalions, squadrons, and lines. Then they would charge to the enemy in a line and then duke it out with the enemy. The one with the best or stronger fighters wins.

So winning is a matter of strategy and the ability of the captain to see the movement of the opponent and counter it.

On the field… he noticed that the captain of the War Games team is actually a young woman. She looks like she is a senior and her serious expression are a bit intimidating. But one could tell that her beauty is also impeccable.

The young woman is well-built and her body does not look frail. In fact, one could tell that her muscles are well-toned.

Her voice and command are sharp and on point which made everyone gasp at her sharpness and wit. She looks like a brave goddess of war.

"That is Yao Mai Lin…"

"I really like Senior Mai… she is my idol."

"Look at her commanding presence… if only she is a man, I would really fall in love with her."

The crowd whispered while watching the practice.

Xin Ja just listened and watch the formations being practiced by the group. The timing and the way they should be used.

He is a bit baffled at the formation array of the student soldiers on the battlefield.

"So this is what they call a war game… looks exciting…" Xin Ja muttered to himself as a slight smile crept on his face.

After that practice, everyone is called even the support for the team.

"Tomorrow is the day we depart for Yanzing… I want all of you to get some rest. No more troublesome matters… am I clear?!" shouted Yao Mai Lin to the team.

"Yes, Captain!"

"Good… everyone disperses… See you at the academy gate at exactly 5 am sharp." Coach An Taining shouted as she claps her hands.

The rest also claps in excitement.

"Xin Ja… Can I talk to you?…" Coach An called.

Xin Ja stopped in his tracks and turn around. He suddenly noticed a few eyes glaring at him.

Feeling a bit uncomfortable, he just sneers at those people. It was as if the others were provoked and wanted to take a step forward.

But before they could move, a cold glare meets their eyes from their trainer Captain Gong.

As the rest left, Coach An, Captain Gong, and Senior Mai were left along with Xin Ja.

"I know that there are some frictions in the team with you lately… I wanted to apologize." Coach An grabs the chance to say sorry.

Xin Ja was a bit taken aback.

Captain Gong on the other hand has a complicated look on his face. Before leaving the principal's office that morning, the principal showed him something that almost made him piss his pants. So every time he looks at Xin Ja just now is like looking at a monster.

He might not admit it, but he is now truly afraid of the boy.

"I… I'm sorry… I'm sorry for what happened this morning…" Captain Gong said with sweat trickling down his forehead.

"Student Xin Ja, this is the captain of the War Games… Yao Mai Lin, your senior… I hope that you two can get along…" Coach An said with a smile.

"Student Lin, this is Xin Ja… he has three abilities… a good Attacker, a defender, and could also be a healer…"

When Yao Mai Lin heard this, she showed astonishment in her eyes as she looks at the young man before her.

Isn't that too overrated for a mere 1st level Ki fighter?

She could accept being a defender or a healer, but a 1st level attacker? That would spell doom for the team already.

But then, if the coach told her that he could do it, then she could only trust the coach.

So she nodded her head.

"Welcome to the team…" Yao Mai Lin greeted.

When Xin Ja saw the face of Yao Mai Lin, he could not help but notice some similarities with Yao Xue at home.

"I hope that she is not one of those evil Yao family members…" Xin Ja thought.

Because so far, the Yao members he met except for Yao Xue are all scheming and bunch of bastards. Plus he is lucky that he has not seen those people he had met before in the academy. Well, it's not as if they can recognize him without his mask though.

That night, Xin Ja excitedly told his father about going to Yanzing town for the War Games tomorrow. He then told them about his plan. He wanted his family to see the War Games, so for the whole month, he finished his prototype.

After a bunch of trial and error this month, he finally finished the prototype of the very first video recording system in Ogden town.

A palm-size video crystal could record around 5 hours of moving images. This is after compressing the rune control array on the crystal.

He even recorded many images of him, Xuanlong, and Yao Xue together.

"Papa… I am going to put the video recording crystal on your red Mule… Ok? You can check it every day…" Xin Ja said with a smile.

"I will…" Xin Jong said with a nod.

"Hey… little nephew… I also want this kind of thing… When can you give me one… You can give me Ki buster later, but that video recording crystal thing… I want one… now… Hehe…" Xin Han suddenly said with his palm open wide.

Xin Ja could not help but shake his head as he handed one of the palm-size video recording crystals.

When Xin Han got his hands on it, he immediately acted like a little child. He then began to tinker with the screen.

Xin Ja could not help but smile at the antics of this uncle of his.
