56 Chapter 56: Dang it...Not another one........... (1/2)
Yun Che and Retsu's stunt spread throughout the palace like wildfire. Various teachers, elders and disciples heard the recent event happening in the recruitment arena. Yun Che and Retsu overshadowed all the recruits and becoming the primary star of the palace in one single day. Yun Che never actually planned this but if things happen, then so be it.
New Moon Profound Palace occupied a vast expanse, with a magnificent Main Hall at its center, and innumerable architecture that stretched as far as the eye could see. No wonder people called this palace a small part of the city. Yun Che and Retsu followed Xia Yuanba towards his living accommodations before making their way to the food hall. Along the way, New Moon Profound Palace disciples, all of whom were under the age of twenty staring at him as if he was a superstar. Now he knows never underestimated power of rumors once it spreads, even if they wanted to ignore him it would be hard.
Along the way, he heard whispers about them rejecting the offer of the administrator. Calling him arrogant or dumb enough to turn down an offer from Qin Wuyou himself.
”Che, shit happens. This is what happens when you're too strong.” Yun Che started to think if he is a nobody if he's weak and a dumbass if he's strong. He sighed seeing the culture of this cultivation world.
”System, how many disciples in this palace?”
[Ding…. Scan shows there are total of three thousand disciples in the palace. The weakest being the Elementary and the strongest is around Spirit Profound Realm. This is the staging area where disciples are trained before joining the kingdom as soldiers or officers.]
Yun Che nods in understanding before explaining it to Retsu. Yuanba was explaining things about the disciples of the place they should be wary about. Since they both defeated an instructor, they are considered as the shining pearls of the palace. Despite rejecting the offer made by the administrator.
”So Yuanba? How did you get this strong in a span of a year? Last time, your cultivation was at the second level of the Elementary Profound Realm. By rights, you should be around the lower level of mid stages of the Elementary Profound Realm. How did you do it?” He already knew the answer but he asked them anyway to hear Yuanba's part of the story.
”I am not that strong brother in law. Maybe because I was guided by elder Han when I came here. After you left 12 months ago, I really idolize you and wanted to be strong as you. So, father send me here through his connection with Elder Han. At first, elder Han saw me as average and able to get me in the palace. But, I was bullied as the weakest cultivator back then. So I train and train despite it was hard to cultivate. I don't know why.”
”Well, your profound veins are quite unique though.” Yun Che said bluntly while putting both of his hand behind his head.
”Unique?” Yuanba was confused.
”Sort of, your veins require more energy to cultivate compare to ordinary cultivators. That's why your veins are slower compare to those disciples. However, the best part of your veins is you need to 'jump start' your veins to cultivate faster.”
”Jump start? Whats a 'jump start?'” Yuanba asked him.
”Ai…Dang it… It's like you need to trigger something in your veins to make it cultivate faster like force it to awake. You said you idolize me before right? Your will wanted to be as strong as me probably why you were able to trigger a gist of it to spark your cultivation.” Yun Che explained to him. Looks like that habit of bringing modern world terminology started to affect his speech. He needs to be wary of it sometimes.
”A gist? Only a gist and I was able to become this strong?”
”Hell yeah. You need a larger 'trigger' to awaken it. The best I can suggest is anger I think. Anger is the best way for you to cultivate faster.” If he's right, his veins probably function just like a Saiyan Bloodline. They need to feel anger to tap into their potential.
”Anger? Any other way aside from that, brother in law?”
”Nope, your veins are unique though. That's the conclusion I can make.”
”How do you know all of this brother in law?” Yuanba asked him. Its pretty rare for someone likeYun Che to give him full explanation of his cultivation.
”Well, I more of a miracle doctor myself. Retsu too. We can see your veins easily as if we're reading a book. Trust me, the easiest way for you to get angry. The hardest is train yourself to the limit and feel the determination.”
”All right, I'll follow your advice. Brother in law.”
”That's the spirit.” Yun Che pats his back earning a small shock from him.
Yun Che's group finally arrived at the inner disciples' residence area after a while. After exchanging the token which greatly shocking the person in charge, they finally arrived at a large residence with a large courtyard. They are given this courtyard by the headmaster which is different from the other inner disciples. The area was quite large for two people to stay in it. That headmaster of them really outdone himself for them. After persuading Yuanba, he finally agreed to stay with them just for a little while. He wanted to earn a place for himself without relying on Yun Che. He just nods because this the best way for Yuanba to cultivate. He'll make sure to invite Little Fairy to his residence later on. If she found out that they lived here while she stayed in an inn, she'll beat the living hell out of him.
”Brother in law, I want to ask. You could join any sect you want with that strength. Why do you come here?”
”Well, me and Retsu actually had a business here. We're here participate in a banquet three weeks from now. The banquet is where almost all of New Moon City's top powers all in one place. We wanted to beat …no..no.. have the experience of fighting them.”
”Young master said it's the best way to broaden our horizon. It could be the best place to play.” Retsu said excitedly.
”However, Brother-in-law, Sister in law, do you really plan on participating in the banquet three weeks from now?” Xia Yuanba asked somewhat worriedly.
”Of course we have to go.” Yun Che took a sideways glance at him, ”Yuanba, it seems as if you don't want to go to this banquet. Is there a problem?”
”Even though it's not exactly a problem, but…. but….” Xia Yuanba hesitated for a moment, and then said with a bit of reluctance. ”Some time ago, I heard that when last generation's Palace Chief was newly appointed, they also sent out many invitations for a banquet. During that banquet however, the invited disciples from the other sects used the excuse of exchanging pointers to challenge our disciples of the same age. There were ten matches, and we of New Moon Profound Palace lost all ten times. Thus humiliating the old Palace Chief, and turning the new one into a laughingstock for a long time.
”Heh-heh, as expected. That's their way to let him know who was the real boss of New Moon City.” Yun Che said while laughing.
”But don't worry, we'll show all of them who's boss. By the way, how many powers total in this city?”
”Oh, let me think…” Xia Yuanba seriously thought for a moment, and then slowly answered: ”In total there are seven; they are the Profound Heart Sect, Cloudy Sun Sect, Iron Spear Clan, Seven Deadly Sword Pavilion, and Stormy Profound Palace.” After pausing for a moment, Xia Yuanba's voice became somewhat guarded. ”Their influence is far stronger than our New Moon Profound Palace. If not for the backing of the Imperial Family, then perhaps we may have already been suppressed and forced out. In addition to these five, there are two more giants that not even the Imperial Family would dare provoke… and they're the branches of Xiao Sect and Burning Heaven Clan that are here in New Moon City.
”That shitty Xiao Clan in this city? Well, then more reason for me to fuck things up during the banquet.” He said grinning while smash his fist together.
”Brother in law !..You…” Yuanba was shocked after her heard Yun Che calling the one of the two powers as a shitty.
”Yes, I have a score to settle with them. All of them actually.”
”Burning Heaven Clan? Is that clan as weak as the Xiao Clan from before, young master?” Retsu asked curiously.
”Now did you mention it, Retsu. I have a score to settle with them as well. And yes, they're quite weak.”
”Ara, this is getting interesting then.” Retsu said while giggling.
”Brother in law, Sister in law, are you crazy?!!??? Offending the Xiao clan and Burning Heaven Clan is a no-no.” Yuanba tried to persuade Yun Che. Even if he was strong, there's no way for them to fight two giants in this city.
