Chapter 183 Mistaken identity part 21

The Great Wu Cultivation Academy: 2

/*unedited*/

Inside the Jiao residence, in the family main hall, broken pots and precious porcelain wares are everywhere. Si'en Jiao has an unsightly expression on his face.

"I and my Jiao family were humiliated today because of that unfilial son of mine. I must teach him and his mother a lesson… I…" Si'en Jiao suddenly stopped upon remembering the beauty of Aye Muyan. It was like those years ago when they were young.

In truth, he wanted to dote on her and would always want to seek her in bed before, but because of his junior sister, who is now his second wife, he would always control himself. But now, everything is different. Aye Muyan has the same cultivation as him and she seems to not only regain her cultivation and improve but also gained her youth.

"I must have her back… as for that son… hmmm… since he is strong, he is worthy of my Jiao family now. I must take them back to the family." Si'en Jiao muttered as he tried to work out another plan.

Then suddenly a person appears from the entrance of the family hall.

"Family head, the Great Wu Cultivation Academy has sent us a letter of invitation. This year they would be accepting another batch of students for special cultivation path." The man who enters is one of the servants of the Jiao family.

"Give me the letter." Si'en Jiao said as he stretches forth his hands.

Then he receives the letter of invitation to all the noble families within the Wu Kingdom.

The Great Wu Cultivation Academy is a very prestigious academy of the Wu Kingdom. It is said that the academy was built by a powerful cultivator in the Heavenly Nascent realm thousands of years ago. From the time it was built it fostered most of the elites of the Wu Kingdom that even the Great Empire of Xi would send their precious sons and daughters to the academy.

Since it is near the border and would be in constant war, military tactics and array formation is the expertise of the academy. And those who can enter these classes would be deemed as geniuses and would be highly valued in the empire of Xi.

It is said that almost 80% of the generals of the empire is a graduate of the said academy. And the grand array formation expert, Fang Lang Ju or commonly called as Master Ju is also a graduate and an esteemed special instructor of the academy. So although the academy would always recruit cultivators every year, however, only a small portion of students would be able to qualify in entering such classes.

When Si'en Jiao saw the letter of introduction his eyes immediately lit up. The letter of introduction didn't specify how many juniors they can send to the academy, so he would just pick five of the most outstanding juniors of their family and also invite his unfilial son, Shin Jiao.

Later that day, as Shin Jiao and his mother went home; they saw a luxurious carriage in front of their house. And besides, the carriage is an old man. He is wearing a dark purple elder's robe of the Jiao family. When Aye Muyan saw the old man, her eyes lit up as she walks faster.

"Aye Muyan, greats uncle!" Aye Muyan said with a respectful bow.

When the old man saw Aye Muyan his old eyes immediately lit up. In the Jiao family, he is the only elder who would always side with Aye Muyan. When she was kicked from the family he convinced the family to give her back her dowry as it is not even giving the family enough income. Though he said this in his heart he knows that the small store can give support to the first wife of his nephew, the Jiao family head.

"Ai, my child. You have grown to be a very beautiful lady. You truly have the fortune of heavens looking at you. This old man is truly happy to see you. I thought that the family head would not let me step out of the family for the rest of my life. Sigh… I guess today my old bones still has its uses… So, how are you, my dear?"

"Great uncle, I have been fine. I also find that… little Shin. He… he has grown to be a fine young man now." Aye Muyan said with a bittersweet tone in her voice.

"I'm happy for you. Well, won't you let this old man go inside your home?" The great uncle of the Jiao family asked.

"Aw, my manners… I'm sorry; I was just too excited to see you again." Aye Muyan said as she gave Shin Jiao a nod.

Seeing her signal, Shin Jiao muttered in a low voice.

"Security free entry pass, six people."

"Affirmative, opening array gate for six people." a female voice said from the other end of the line in his earpiece.

With a nod, Shin Jiao signaled six fingers on Aye Muyan.

"Great uncle, you and a single servant may enter along with us." Aye Muyan said with a gentle smile.

"Oh, no worries, I will only go in." the old man said.

As the group enters through the entrance door, the array gate immediately closes after the old man passed. Feeling the closing of the array from behind him, the old man showed an astonished expression.

"This is a truly magnificent array formation." He muttered with a smile on his old face.

Inside Aye Muyan's house, she entertained the old man along with Shin Jiao.

"Lass, I came here to give you something." The old man said.

"What is it, great uncle?" Aye Muyan asked.

The old man extended his right hand and gave her a parcel. Inside, Aye Muyan saw the letter of introduction. When she finished reading, her eyes lit up in astonishment.

"This is… this is an introductory letter to enter the Great Wu Cultivation Academy. Great uncle, do you mean that…" Aye Muyan suddenly exclaimed.

"Yes, your son seems to have gained some favor with your hus… with the family head. And he wanted to offer this opportunity to you as compensation for the mistakes the family made. I hope you, mother and child, would find it in you to forgive us." The old man said with a courteous bow.

"Great uncle, if it's you I don't mind. But with Si'en Jiao and the rest, humph… I won't forgive them that easily. They have bullied and cause me and my son great pain, this I cannot accept and forgive." Aye Muyan said with fiery flame blazing in her eyes.

Shin Jiao suddenly look at the introductory letter given for the Jiao family. As he finished reading, he suddenly had the idea of attending the academy. His knowledge with regards to crafting is already very high because of Gubu. But his array formation and cultivation knowledge are still average or below at most. Though he can learn very fast, his knowledge is limited and most are learned by observing other arrays.

The vastness of array formation is like the vastness of the universe. Many kinds of diversities and patterns can be made and learn when it comes to this subject. This includes rune making, calligraphy and brush stokes, advance mind runes, the natural array of the heavens, and more…

Shin Jiao suddenly has the urge to go there. Though he has a plan to continue on his travel but this little chance to improve his own skills wouldn't come twice. So no matter what he needed to grab this chance to enter that said academy.

Plus, he can learn more about cultivation techniques and fighting styles. The more he can read and learn about them the better his chance of survival in this cultivation world. Right now his knowledge when it comes to techniques and fighting are still the basic and those he mastered on Earth. He knows the cultivation land has more to offer than what he had seen so far.

As of now, he solely relies on his speed and fighting style from the earth. Plus the people he has faced are not that challenging for him. He can even trash those powerful elders in the clan which he knows are not truly learned when it comes to cultivation techniques and arts because if they do, they would not be easily defeated by him with just his simple punches and quick attacks.

So if Shin Jiao enters an academy there may be a chance for him to meet those powerful individuals, especially the Great Wu Cultivation Academy which fosters array formation and military tactics. If so then his experience when it comes to arrays would broaden and he can apply that with his gears in the future.

With this in mind, he stretches forth his hand and patted Aye Muyan's hand gently.

"Mom, it's okay… if the family head of the Jiao family wanted to present us with an opportunity to enter the academy then so be it…" Shin Jiao said with a smile.

Aye Muyan upon seeing that smile of his knows that this son of hers is concocting another plan. But since she saw how he fights and knows that he can make those artifacts, she is confident that she can trust in his abilities.

"Okay, it's your choice son." Aye Muyan said.

"But Senior, this doesn't mean that the debt that the Jiao family did to my mom is easily written off. There are things that we can forgive and things that we cannot least you would think that... we mother and child are easily bullied." Shin Jiao said with a grin.
