Chapter 1231

(Unedited)

…

The night, Xin Ja talked with his master and the two began to share more about runes and formation arrays. Xin Ja began showing many complex diagrams that immediately caught the attention of Master Wang. But what baffled Xin Ja is the knowledge and ability of Master Wang to analyze the diagrams.

He truly is a Ki Master, with one glance and a few seconds later he could already determine what kind of array it is. This only proves that Master Wang's attainment in arrays is true of a different level.

Xin Ja also gained attainment when it comes to using higher-level arrays that he needed to control more powerful Ki energy.

As a Ki Master, Master Wang is able to deduce the proper formula and diagram to be able to control such an enormous amount of power.

"Young Ja… I suggest you not delve into such power yet… A Ki Master's power is able to destroy a whole village if an accident happens. If you research on it in the town, then there is a possibility that half of the town would be destroyed if something goes wrong…" Master Wang warned.

Upon hearing this, Xin Ja nodded his head. He knew how strong and powerful a Ki Master is. In fact, with Master Wang alone, he could destroy this whole town if he wanted to. That is the true strength of a Ki Master.

But that strength has a corresponding curse. Whenever a Ki practitioner is about to break through to the Ki Master level, they would not dare face the lightning tribulation of the heavens. Instead, most of them would rather take an oath of destruction.

This is a secret oath that they would promise to control their strength and not go on a rampage unless their physical body would be destroyed.

Now, this oath is a secret amongst the Ki Masters and only a few knew it.

But not everyone takes this oath and would rather face the strong lightning tribulation… and almost 99% of them would die…

Those lucky few were able to live, but barely hang with their lives.

Then, they would recuperate and regain their strength. Though they can be unfettered under heaven by this time, they would still face the consequence if another Ki Master is sent to fight them. Those that take an oath, and those who did not, have no difference in strength.

The only difference is their freedom to rampage and destroy.

And this is the other reason why Master Wang did not want Xin Ja to harness this kind of power. Imagine a Mecha able to wield the power of a Ki Master. That would surely cause chaos and trouble in the world.

And if this happens, then the powerful Shen would sure ascend to this small place and destroy them with a wave of their hand.

While listening to the words of Master Wang, Xin Ja already knew that what his master is telling him is true.

…

The next day…

Xin Ja once again walks to school with Rou Chenchen in his hand. They enjoyed the feeling of each other's warm hands and the feeling of being together.

Not too far from them, Qing Joming and Tung Jo just walk following the two while discussing Mechas.

In Qing Joming's hand, he is holding a video and is showing Tung Jo a Mecha test battle that he got from his father's connection.

When his father heard that his son passed the test for a pilot last night, he was too elated that their family had a feast.

He secretly gave Qing Joming a copy of the video of a Mecha test battle he got a while ago.

His father is also interested in Mechas so hearing that his son will be able to become a pilot someday, he was elated.

Nowadays, Mecha pilots have a high status in the eyes of the people.

Not only should they be strong when it comes to martial prowess or runes, but they too should have enough cultivation to be able to handle the stress the Mecha could give them.

For example, before Yao Mai Lin could become a Mecha pilot she needed to be at the 6th level. So she works hard in the military to increase her power from 4th to the 6th level at that time.

The only exemption to this is Xin Ja who is still at the 1st level in the eyes of the many. But no one dare ask this question as they knew the guy is an anomaly ever since he was discovered by the army.

And so, Tung Jo and Qing Joming busied themselves talking while the two lovebirds enjoy their time together walking hand in hand.

But once they reached the school, they parted way as usual, and Tung Jo was dragged to their campus by Lin Wayin.

The school life of Xin Ja became blissful with someone he loves, his family, and his friends by his side.

Weeks have passed since then… and the seniors are now graduating.

Yao Mai Lin, Hou Jing, Hou Malou, and Lin Geng stood wearing their graduation uniform while receiving a certificate from the academy higher-ups along with the other seniors.

While on the field, Xin Ja and his gang walked up to them, and the group began taking video recordings of their time.

Xin Ja suddenly muttered.

"It would have been better if I could have created something that is called… picture…" he thought.

The military has actually developed such a thing, but it is only for the use of the military. But for the civilians, this thing does not exist yet.

The military rune masters would use a rune array to capture the image from a video recorder crystal and projected it on a paper surface.

Using this, they are able to create pictures for the soldiers and reconnaissance. 

"Maybe I could create such a thing…" Xin Ja thought for a while.

But his thought was interrupted when Yao Mai Lin grabbed his arm and then drags him to the others.

"Hey, let's have some memories together guys!" she shouted as the group gathered in front of the video recorder's lens.

Everyone was very happy and they all showed excitement in their eyes. Their days in the academy might be over but the connection they made in this place is very precious and the friends they have are something they would not forget even after many years have passed.

Some students grabbed this chance to confess their love to their crushes… some even give flowers just to attract the girl they like.

One such girl is Yao Mai Lin who has a long line of admirers. Some even gave Xin Ja glaring stares as they approach.

This is because… there is a rumor in school that Xin Ja and Yao Mai Lin are actually going out.

So… many seniors are annoyed that a freshman dares to get his hands on the beautiful senior. But they dare not take action because that said freshman is someone they could not offend.

But of course, Xin Ja did not entertain such rumors. He is already happy that he could be with his girlfriend; Rou Chenchen… the rumor is irrelevant to him.

After that, the group then went to eat at a restaurant in town.

As of this moment, the town's famous restaurants were actually full of students from Ogden academy and also from the other schools in town.

As the group enters, they were immediately greeted by the festive hubbub inside the restaurant making them feel a bit infected by the joyous occasion inside.

At this time, Xin Ja and the rest went to the second floor and they found an empty seat near the window when a group that was in that place were leaving.

However, as they enter, some of the people on the second floor actually recognize the group.

"Hey… Isn't that the daughter of the Yao family? One of the celebrated heroes in our town…"

"Wow! It's really goddess Lin!… I can't believe she is here!"

"This is awesome! I think my graduation is already complete… Hehehe…"

The guys on the 2nd floor of the restaurant chattered.

"Ugh… Should we…" Hou Jiang wanted to ask if they should transfer but Yao Mai Lin stopped him.

"Let's have our dinner here…" she said with a smile.

The group nodded and did not mind the other people around them.

…

After the celebration, Xin Ja and Rou Chenchen walked home together.

"Brother Ja… I… I have a question… I've wanted to ask this, but have no chance to." She said with a reluctant gaze.

"Why be hesitant?" Xin Ja said with a confused expression.

"This… Umn… I know that Senior Yao has found someone on the battlefield. Then… then how about you? Have you also found someone in there? I promise not to get angry… I know that in the war you would feel lonely, helpless, and depressed… so I could understand that you will also…" Rou Chenchen said trying to tone down her feelings.

But then before she could say another word, she saw Xin Ja stop walking, then turn around.

She did not know why, but upon seeing his gaze, her heart skipped a beat. Then as if in a slow-motion, Xin Ja's face slowly came closer towards her.

Everything around here seems to have slowed down, as her mind anticipated what would happen next…
