Chapter 11: Chapter 11: How Did You Advance to the First Order?

"Even if Huang Wei possesses a grade ten martial spirit, Father's action is too partial to him!" Su Yan argued in a dissatisfied manner. "Could it be at the end of the year's Clan Assembly our Xiaolong will really…?!" The words choked in her throat as Su Yan's eyes turned red.

"I'm going to have a talk with Father!" At this moment, Huang Peng stood up in anger and said.

"Dad, it's not necessary!" Huang Xiaolong stopped Huang Peng abruptly, saying "It's not necessary to look for Grandfather!"

Huang Peng and Su Yan turned to look at their son.

Just when Huang Peng opens his mouth about to say something, on his son's body, he saw a burst of battle qi's bright radiance.

"Battle qi, outward projection of battle qi?" After being dazed for a moment, Huang and Su Yan blurted out in shock, a look of disbelief evident on their faces.

'The outward projection of battle qi, does this mean…?' A thought flashed through Huang Peng and Su Yan's mind, First Order warrior! Only after reaching the First Order warrior one can project battle qi outside the body; someone who had just successfully condensed battle qi was unable to project battle qi outwards.

"Xiaolong you, could it be that you have advanced to First Order?" Huang Peng asked in a trembling voice, although he witnessed the proof with his own eyes, he dared not be sure, for it might turn out to be an illusion.

"That's right, Dad, Mom, I have already advanced to First Order!" Huang Xiaolong nodded, he did not wish to see his parents worrying endlessly about matters related to the Clan Assembly, so he decided to reveal part of his strength.

Hearing their son's confirmation, Huang Peng and Su Yan finally believed the truth in front of them. Joy took over their faces, especially Su Yan, after going through surprise and excitement she ran over and hugged Huang Xiaolong tightly: "Wonderful, my son finally advanced to the First Order!'

Tears of joy rolled down Su Yan's face.

Su Yan's was quite a voluptuous woman, being hugged so tightly made Huang Xiaolong feel like he was about to suffocate; he finally managed to break free with much difficulty after a moment. 'It is only the First Order, is it necessary to make such a big fuss?' Huang Xiaolong thought dejectedly in his heart.

However, he could truly feel the love Huang Peng and Su Yan had for him.

Huang Peng and Su Yan gradually calmed down from their joy and excitement a short while later.

"Xiaolong, how did you advance to the First Order?" Huang Peng voiced out the doubt in his heart. With Huang Xiaolong's grade seven martial spirit talent, to advance to the First Order would take at least a year or more.

Su Yan also turned to look questioningly at her son, obviously, she too has some doubts.

Instead of speaking, Huang Xiaolong withdrew two bright red fruit from his chest under the astonished gaze of Huang Peng and Su Yan.

The bright, succulent redness of the fruits bedazzled people.

"These, these are Yang fruits?!" Huang Peng and Su Yan both exclaimed in amazement.

"Yes." Huang Xiaolong laughed. "One month ago, I accidentally found these Yang fruits in a valley at the back mountain. There were five fruits in total, and I took three of them."

There were truly five pieces of Yang fruit in the beginning, but Huang Xiaolong only ate one.

"Three fruits!" Huang Peng and Su Yan looked at each other. They finally understood the 'real reason' their son advanced to the First Order in such a short amount of time.

"Good! Haha, Xiaolong, unexpectedly you have such good fortune. The Yang fruit is a wonder fruit; its benefits are no less compared to the Leirion Heart Grass your Grandfather bought for Huang Wei." Huang Peng laughed merrily: "It is also beneficial to your future cultivation."

Even Su Yan was smiling from ear to ear.

"Dad, Mom, these two Yang fruits, both of you take one each and cultivate." Huang Xiaolong said.

Huang Peng and Su Yan's smiles stiffened on their faces and were about to refuse when Huang Xiaolong interrupted, "I have already taken three fruits, any more will only waste it and will not bring more benefits to me. It is better if Dad and Mom take it."

Hearing this, Huang Peng and Su Yan could no longer say anything. 

Seconds later, Huang Peng nodded his head in agreement: "Fine." Taking the two Yang fruits from Huang Xiaolong's hand, he inhaled deeply looking at them, making an effort to suppress the excitement in his heart. He had been stuck at late-Sixth Order for more than a year, with this piece of Yang fruit he would able to breakthrough to the peak-Sixth Order in two months' time.

In fact, he really needed this Yang fruit.

Looking at the small red succulent fruit in her palm, Su Yan's expression wasn't much different from Huang Peng's. With this piece of Yang fruit, there was hope for her to advance to the Sixth order. 

"Xiaolong, about your breakthrough to the First Order, for the time being, don't let others know." Huang Peng said to his son after regaining some clarity, and continued, "Although you managed to breakthrough after swallowing the Yang fruits, you still need to make an effort in your practice, strive to reach mid-First Order by the end of the year."

In Huang Peng's opinion, as long as his son could reach the mid-First Order, even if Huang Wei was late-First Order at that time, to cripple both of his son's hands would be difficult.

The gap between mid-First Order and late-First Order was almost negligible.

"Dad, Mom, rest assured that I will not disappoint you." Huang Xiaolong said.

Huang Peng and Su Yan were comforted with those words.

A short while later Huang Xiaolong left the Eastern Courtyard hall back to his small courtyard and directly went into practice mode. After advancing to the Third Order, the double-headed martial spirit's speed in absorbing the netherworld spiritual aura had again increased, the battle qi inside his body grew ever more powerful.

Almost at the speed of every other day, the battle qi inside his body became thicker and more powerful.

The small courtyard Huang Xiaolong resided in was located at the easternmost part of Huang Clan Manor, that was why other than his parents and his sister Huang Min, rarely any people passed by, which made it all the more convenient for Huang Xiaolong to concentrate on practice.

With Huang Xiaolong practicing in a crazed manner regardless of day or night, his battle qi and internal force increased exponentially.

The peak of early-Third Order, mid-Third Order, peak mid-Third Order, late-Third Order!

By the time three months had passed, Huang Xiaolong's battle qi had reached peak late-Third Order, at any moment he could breakthrough to Fourth Order, and there were only less than two weeks until the end of the year's Clan Assembly.

However, the Fourth Order was a dividing line, the fourth order's barrier was much thicker compared to the previous second and third order, the difficulty was incomparable.

In Huang Clan Manor there were disciples possessing grade seven martial spirits stuck at peak late-Third Order for more than two years, unable to achieve the desired breakthrough to the Fourth Order. Even those possessing grade eight martial spirits spent more than one year's time at peak late-Third Order before advancing further.

Two weeks passed quickly.

With the approaching Clan Assembly, the Huang Clan Manor was filled with a lively and festive atmosphere because two days after the Clan Assembly was the dawn of a New Year. The entire Huang Clan Manor was decorated lavishly. In contrast with the rest of the Huang Clan Manor, Huang Xiaolong's small courtyard seemed desolate and lonely.

"Tomorrow's the annual Clan Assembly." Huang Xiaolong left his room after more than a dozen days of hard practice, eventually encountering a bottleneck at peak late-Third Order. From the looks of it, it would take a while before he could cross over to the Fourth Order.

Huang Xiaolong walked out from the small courtyard.

"Tomorrow's the Clan Annual Assembly, did you hear, this time Old Manor Lord will make an appearance!"

"This year is Young Lord Huang Wei's first time participating in the Clan Assembly after awakening his martial spirit, of course Old Manor Lord will be joining the gathering. Not only that, I heard that Old Manor Lord even invited the Li Family's Old Patriarch over!"

"Then it means the Li Family's Old Patriarch will be coming over?"

The Li Family and the Huang Clan Manor were considered as Canglan County's major forces. The relationship between Old Patriarch of the Li Family, Li Mu and Huang Xiaolong's Grandfather, Huang Qide, had always been good.


Chapter 12: Chapter 12: The Annual Clan Assembly Begins

"This year's Clan Assembly, Grandfather Huang Qide even invited Li Mu, Li Family's Old Patriarch over, he truly spent a lot of effort and thought." Huang Xiaolong thinks to himself.

He believes the reason Grandfather invited the Old Patriarch of the Li Family over is not that simple.

Along the path heading to the Eastern Courtyard's hall were decorated with lanterns and colored banners, when the busy guards and maids saw Huang Xiaolong passing by they immediately stopped to salute: "Young Lord Xiaolong!"

Huang Xiaolong nodded as he walked by.

However, along the way he was able to feel the weird gazes of the guards and maids behind him, seems like Huang Wei's intention of crippling Huang Xiaolong's arms have reached the ears of the guards and maids.

Huang Xiaolong reached the Eastern Courtyard.

Inside the main hall, both Huang Peng and Su Yan were present.

'Dad, Mom." Huang Xiaolong cried out as he entered the main hall.

"Xiaolong, you're here." Su Yan pulled Huang Xiaolong to sit next to her then asked: "Tomorrow's the Clan Assembly, how's your practice coming along?"

Huang Peng on the other side also stares at Huang Xiaolong.

Letting out a small laugh, Huang Xiaolong said: "Dad, Mom, don't worry. Tomorrow I surely will not let you down."

Unexpectedly, the moment his sentence ends, Su Yan almost shouted out loud in surprise: "Xiaolong, did you breakthrough to mid-First Order?" Su Yan thought his confidence came from him breakthrough to mid-First Order.

Huang Peng burst out laughing at this moment: "Good, my son, you really did not disappoint Dad."

When Huang Xiaolong heard his parents' words, he reined his smile within, could advancing to mid-First Order before the annual Clan Assembly is the highest expectation his parents have of him?

"Dad, I heard from the guards this year's annual Clan Assembly, the Old Patriarch of Li Family, Li Mu is coming?" Huang Xiaolong asked, changing the topic.

Huang Peng nodded: "This time, other than the Li Family Old Patriarch himself, he also brought his granddaughter Li Lu over."

"His granddaughter, Li Lu?" Huang Xiaolong was a little bewildered then jokingly said: "Old Patriarch Li couldn't be bringing over his granddaughter for a matchmaking right?"

But Huang Peng answered seriously: "That is the purpose of your Grandfather and Old Patriarch Li, after the Clan Assembly is over, Huang Wei and Li Lu to be engaged and in the future, Li Family and Huang Clan will be in-laws."

Huang Xiaolong went blank.

"Hearsay that Li Lu's talent is quite good, hers is a top grade nine martial spirit, the Divine Dark Sword." Su Yan added.

Top amongst grade nine martial spirits, Divine Dark Sword!

Huang Xiaolong was shocked for a moment for it was unexpected that Li Mu's granddaughter Li Lu's martial spirit is the Divine Dark Sword.

In Martial Spirit World, there are different forms of martial spirits - beasts, weapons, plants and there are even people with nature martial spirits such as lightning, wind, water and fire.

And the Divine Dark Sword is one many types of weapon martial spirits.

Of course, the majority of martial spirits in Martial Spirits World exists in beast form, for instance Huang Wei's Three-eyed Black Tiger, Huang Qide's Six-winged Golden Ape and Huang Xiaolong's variant double-headed serpent.

A short while later Huang Xiaolong returned to his small courtyard and continued to practice Asura Tactics.

Slowly, night descended.

Huang Xiaolong stood on a hilltop at the back mountain, not moving an inch but he wasn't practicing, he was instead looking at the vast sea in front of him. In truth with regards to Huang Wei, Huang Xiaolong truly is not bothered.

Releasing the double-headed serpent martial spirits floating behind him, Huang Xiaolong can clearly sense how powerful his martial spirits are after advancing to Third Order and him being the only person able to sense it.

"Looks like I need to make a trip to the library to see if I can find out about my martial spirits." Huang Xiaolong muttered to himself.

However, Huang Clan Manor's library only allows those who had reached Fourth Order to enter that's why he needs to breakthrough to Fourth Order as soon as possible. 

The moonlight stretches Huang Xiaolong's small shadow on the ground.

Darkness gradually fades as the light brightens the sky, Huang Xiaolong's figure dashed, heading back to Huang Clan Manor.

"The Clan's Annual Assembly finally begins!"

Clan's Annual Assembly is about to begin.

Back to Huang Clan Manor, he moved straight towards the Eastern Courtyard. When his parents, Huang Peng and Su Yan saw him coming did not say much, the three of them then walked to the main foyer.

The Main Foyer is double the size of Martial Temple easily accommodating a thousand people. In front of the Main Foyer is a martial stage, and chairs lined the perimeter of the martial stage for the Huang Clan Manors' elders and housekeepers whereas the disciples can only stand at the back area's open space.

When Huang Peng and Su Yan came in along with Huang Xiaolong, many of the elders and housekeepers were already there.

"Second Manor Lord."

"Second Manor Lord."

The group of elders, housekeepers and disciples immediately greeted Huang Peng.

Huang Peng nodded. Su Yan and Huang Xiaolong followed from behind him arriving in front of a table and chairs and sat down. Sitting down, Huang Xiaolong sense there is a cold gaze staring at him, raising his head to find the source, he saw Huang Wei who was sitting opposite.

At this moment, their eyes met – Huang Wei's gaze was arrogant, condescending, provoking and complacent.

Sitting beside Huang Wei is Huang Ming, forever with his deadpan expressionless face. As Huang Peng sat down, he did not greet Huang Ming. Since the Northern Courtyard incident the two of them no longer speak to each other, from brothers to strangers traveling on the same path.

Not long after the three of them arrived, from the outer hall a hearty laugh rang out, hearing the sound of laughter everyone inside the hall quickly stand up. Looking over Huang Xiaolong saw his Grandfather Huang Qide, walking into the hall with a face full of laughter and next to his grandfather is a high-spirited old man with a head full of silvery white hair about the same age Huang Xiaolong immediately knows this is Old Patriarch Li, Li Mu. Following closely behind Li Mu is a lovely girl with two braids and bright round eyes curiously spinning around. 

"Old Manor Lord."

"Old Patriarch Li."

Everyone present quickly greeted, and after that Huang Ming, Huang Peng and Su Yan went up: "Dad, Old Patriarch Li."

"Grandfather, Old Patriarch Li." Huang Wei and Huang Xiaolong too went up, following from behind.

Huang Qide gave a chuckle and nodded, then said to Li Mu while pointing at Huang Wei: "This is my grandson, Huang Wei." But he only introduced Huang Wei without mentioning Huang Xiaolong.

Li Mu looked at Huang Wei up and down, with a look of appreciation said: "Not Bad. Good. Brother Qide, I heard that your grandson practice less than two months already successfully breakthrough First Order warrior, when it was my time to breakthrough First Order I used more than five months ah."

Huang Qide laughed boisterously when he heard this: "Li Mu Brother, please do advise and look after him in the future."

"In the future, that is of course." Li Mu laughed.

Awhile later, everyone returned to their seats.

Then, Chief Housekeeper Chen Ying stood up begin going through the Annual Assembly's program, after finishing he turned over to looked at Huang Qide, seeing Huang Qide nodding his head, he declared in a loud voice: "Annual Clan Assembly begins!"

Chen Ying's declaration met with a silent hall.

Following the rules of previous years, the first to get up on the stage are usually the ones who awakened their martial spirits this year.

Everyone couldn't resist but to look at Huang Wei, everyone knows the purpose Old Manor Lord attends this year's clan assembly, Huang Wei is destined to be the main focus of attention.

"Huang Wei, go and show the result of your five months effort, let everyone see your achievement." Huang Qide said to his grandson Huang Wei, eyes full of encouragement.

"Yes, Grandfather." Huang Wei stood up and cried loudly he then leaped up onto the center of the martial stage.

Landing atop the martial stage, Huang Wei runs the exercise law, fully releasing his battle qi and his martial spirits, the Three-Eyed Black Tiger floated out behind him emanating quite a powerful aura.

"Peak late-First Order!"

Sensing the battle qi aura released by Huang Wei, elders of Huang Clan Manor, housekeepers and disciples were greatly shocked creating a ruckus. Just five short months of practicing battle qi and yet Huang Wei has reached the peak of late-First Order!

Note:

From brothers to strangers traveling on the same path – from a close/intimate relationship to being strangers traveling on the same road where you do not speak to each other unless necessary.
