Chapter 002 – Bronze Plate

The sky was still dark and Tang Tian awoke

Casually washi+ng up, Tang Tian turned on the lights and sat down at the table He unfolded a piece of paper, buried his head down and began writing

“Qian Hui, how have you been? Ihas been well for me, please don’t be worried A new semester has started, and I a assistant in his Sword class Without you here, I feel quite bored Everyone looks down on me, I dislike the so well, he is a good man, and I wish that he will be healthy forever How is Uncle Yu? Please help me say hi to him I really wish to be able to see the Immortal Constellation Nebula Waterfall that you spoke of, I can’t i in ive up…”

After writing so s of life Carefully folding the letter, Tang Tian sealed it in an envelope

Carefully writing the address: I Establish Qian Hui (to receive)

Finishi+ng up, he took out the air postage stamp to Heaven’s road that he had prepared previously, and stuck it on the envelope

After doing everything, he got up again, and went to the courtyard

TheTian extended out a hand and a leg, holding the his position, prepared for a day of training

What he was practising was the funda)

After practising for almost a year, his mastery of the fundamental fist arts was close to perfection

The fundamental fist arts consisted of three movements, cross, jabs and hooks The cross punch releases a lot of strength, deep, firht and fast punches thatof the feet Hooks lie between both the cross and jab, with le

Every basicTian, they were graceful This was after practising over a thousand times, performed to perfection

In a state of concentration, Tang Tian tediously practised, not even once letting a look of tiredness show on his face

Soon, he eating everywhere, drenching his clothes, bean sized drops of sweat trickling down his neck

Looking closely, there was dull vapor rising from his entire body

Repeatedly practising theonce in a while to ponder on theback into practice Time slowly passed by, and as the sun rose, the cold air started to disperse

Tang Tian was too absorbed in his training

Suddenly, an alar, time was up!

Hu!

In the courtyard, with inco Tian bent doith both hands on his knees, bean sized beads of sweat dripping from his chin to the floor Whenever he practised, he would be overly concentrated with no feelings, which caused him to be drained out and momentarily lost after he stopped

Five htened his body, lifted his weak knees and walked towards the corner of the courtyard where a pond lay The pond was filled ater Tang Tian walked over to the pond, and with a ‘splash’, he fell into the pond

The pond water sent a chill to the bones so early in theThe moment he fell into the pond, he quivered

He pulled back his lips and looked as though he was in pain Slowly, he adapted to the coldness of the water, and about two minutes later, his body had coed and focused on mental cultivation

Having stayed in the Andrew Academy for five years, his fundamental mental cultivation art was perfect A funda as there was perseverance, it could beTian did not have a strong essence and therefore used an average of five years, but he did not slack until the fundamental mental cultivation art was perfected He soon started to look for a rank two mental cultivation art, however,Andrew Academy only focused on the fundamental mental cultivation arts, to learn a rank two mental cultivation art, there was a need to enter another academy

Yet Tang Tian did not want to waste any tiht and invited hi Tian [The Secrets of Cultivating Qi], a Bronze Grade Rank Two Spirit Card

Tang Tian then began cultivating the rank two mental cultivation art

[The Secrets of Cultivating Qi] was suitable for one as involved inessence, as its onlyQi] which Tang Tian owned could be mastered fast, as the low levelon perseverance There was not a need for many techniques

The warthened Qi dispersed to each corner of the body, reued body to recover quickly

Tang Tian opened his eyes after an hour

His fatigue had washed away, and he felt rejuvenated Yet he did not get up straight away, instead, he laid half of his body in the water, and gazed at the blue sky

What could Qian Hui be doing now…

His eyes turned gentle, but very quickly, his gaze returned to its usual self and he took off the Bronze Plate around his neck The Bronze Plate was connected to a few of the red strings, one which was tied on by his mother, the other by Qian Hui When Qian Hui was in Star Wind City, she would tie a new red string on the Bronze Plate for Tang Tian every year

The size of the Bronze Plate was similar to a coin, in terms of appearance, it looked old On one side of the plate was a picture of the word ‘ten’, on the other side was a h there wereJust below the river, was a line of nu it impossible to see

Tang Tian had worn this Bronze Plate since he was a child, but it was only in the recent years he noticed the numbers

He also noticed the nue fro the fundamental martial techniques

He was absolutely curious about the new findings on the Bronze Plate

Despite being carefree, he was not stupid Very quickly, he found out the pattern for the nuress on a fundamental martial technique, the numbers would jump

From that day onwards, he realized that the mom he used to think was ordinary, didn’t seem so ordinary anymore It dawned upon him that he did not know much about his mom’s death

And the bastard who abandoned her… [Robin: Abandoned as in he was her husband]

Tang Tian was filled with desire to know the truth, he desired to solve the mystery
