The Xin manor main courtyard

In the pavilion, in the middle of the wide courtyard, an old man is sitting while calmly sipping on a cup of tea. Sitting opposite the old man is Xin Jong. Although Xin Jong now has a high standing in the town of Ogden, he is still beneath the old man's status so his attitude is a bit polite.

This old man is the same old man who became the first teacher of Xin Ja. Although the class lasted only for a day, Old Wang did not give up and would always visit Xin Jong every now and then for the past 5 years. And the two became friends because of this.

Today is just like any other day the Old Wang would visit Xin Jong.

"Sigh… If our son did not suffer that traumatic event, he would already be one of the special students in the Ogden academy.." Old Wang said with a deep sigh.

Xin Jong showed a faint smile on his face.

"Why? What is happening in the academy Master Wang?" Xin Jong asked.

"Well… As you are aware… Since last year, our kingdom has been at war with the kingdom of Han due to the ore mines in the east. And we have sent thousands of Ki fighters and Ki adepts in this war. Now the kingdom is worried that our future would be affected because of this and decided to recruit as many talented individuals as we can to the academy. As long as they have potential, they can now enroll…" Old Wang explained.

Upon hearing this… the eyes of Xin Jong widened in surprise. He had actually heard of the war from the city council, but since they are just a backwater town in Jimal kingdom, they were not that affected by it.

And after hearing that the academies are actually accepting students, his heart could not help but feel happy. He would truly like his son Xin Ja to go to school. At first, it would be impossible because he is truly weak and would get easily bullied.

"Master Wang… About… about my son, Xin Ja. He… he has already recovered his sanity." Xin Jong suddenly said.

Old Wang nodded his head and took a sip of the tea. But then suddenly he spat it out as his eyes went wide while turning towards Xin Jong.

"You… Are you saying that Young Ja is already healed?" Old Wang said with a hint of disbelief and happening in his eyes.

"This… this truly a good day! Hahaha!" laughed Old Wang.

"I want to see that young brat! Hahaha…" he added as he suddenly stood up in excitement.

How could he not get excited when a promising youth that he has his eyes on has now regained his sanity?

He has lost all hope as the years gone by. But there is something that is telling him not to give up. No matter how hard he thinks about it, he could not figure out why.

And now that he heard that Young Ja is now okay, how could he not feel elated? It was as if all of the fatigue in his body has vanished and the long sadness in his heart is now gone and is now filled with excitement and happiness.

Xin Jong could not stop the old man as his figure disappears on the spot. How could he not know how strong the old man is? Even though he is considered as one of the strongest Ki fighters in the town, he would not be a match to the old man even if he wears the protective rune necklace his son gave him.

But due to some circumstances, he seems to be hiding his true strength.

Soon, Old Wang found Xin Ja in the side hall of the manor. He is currently seated in a cross-legged position.

Old Wang wanted to enter, but he suddenly stops as he noticed something peculiar.

He knew that the kid could not cultivate pure Ki. But upon watching the kid's action, he seems to feel a bit confused.

Suddenly, his eyes went wide as he noticed the chaotic Ki in the air. At first, he did not realize what is happening in the room. But when he concentrated and watches carefully, he could already see the chaotic Ki revolving around the room as if they are being suck towards the body of the young man sitting in the middle.

"This… So this is the reason why he could not cultivate pure Ki… He has a special and unique physique." Old Wang thought as he continues to watch in silence.

As he watches, the young man in secret, he could not help but feel a bit excited. Who would have known that this brat could hide such a huge secret? But then when he realized about those scheming bastards, Old Wang suddenly felt worried.

If people find out that Xin Ja could actually cultivate chaotic Ki, then it would surely cause him no end of trouble.

"No… I must help him conceal this thing… Wait a minute, there is actually a way…" Old Wang thought as his expression suddenly changes.

"If I can modify that formation to suit his needs, then Young Ja would not have any problem with this secret… That would surely protect him." Old Wang thought.

He knew of the gravity of this secret is known in the outside world.

As he looks around the room, he suddenly noticed that there is actually a formation surrounding it.

"Hmm… So that's the reason why I was not able to find out this thing at first glance…" he thought.

As a powerful Ki Master, Old Wang should have already detected such a phenomenon, but even with his acute senses as a Ki Master, he was not even able to see it at first glance. He needed to concentrate so that he could notice the changes inside the room.

"I guess this is the reason why he is brave enough to cultivate in here. Haha… As expected of the student that I, Wang Chanling, has chosen." He thought with a proud smile.

Old Wang did not stay and quietly closes the door. He then left the place and return to the pavilion.

"Haha… Xin Jong… You truly have a good son… This is truly amazing." Old Wang said with a smile.

Xin Jong showed a hint of confusion in his eyes, but he politely nodded his head at the compliment.

"I will return tomorrow and talk about the enrolment to Ogden academy… Sigh… I hope that Young Ja could truly excel and rise above the rest. With his talent in runes and arrays, I am confident that he could build a name for himself in this vast world." Old Wang said as he looks at the sky and a peaceful smile crept on his face.

In truth, he is thinking of teaching Xin Ja personally. However, the boy is an introvert… that he knew. If he would continue being alone, then that would surely not be beneficial to his growth. He needs to learn how to communicate with others and mingle with his age group. That way, he could not only build friends, but also form allies, and acquaintances which would be beneficial in the future.

Upon thinking to this point, Old Wang finished his tea and bade his farewell. He would still need to prepare the special rune to help Xin Ja conceal his true ability.

He would not want the boy to lose his future prospect as for him… the young boy's talent is truly second to none.

With an excited expression, he left the Xin mansion and went back home to prepare.



Meanwhile, Xin Ja has just finished his chaotic Ki cultivation and slowly opens his eyes. Even with his sharp senses, he is unaware that Old Wang has already discovered his secret.

But he has no time to worry about that. This is because an excited gleam is not glowing in his eyes.

Since he has already recovered his Ki, he could not wait to start creating new gears and weapons using the Faragrite metal rock.

If he could turn that lump of metal into a weapon or any gear, his fighting strength would surely increase by leaps and bounds.
