Looking at his master sleeping figure, Tu Feng could not still believe that a nine year old could be capable of all his feats.
"You are really something all together, me becoming your disciple is not bad at all," Tu Feng said as he took Lu Jin to the bed.
Waking up after an hour, Lu Jin could feel his body radiating with energy, seeing the amount of sword qi in his dantian, Lu Jin was speechless, he broke through the seal that was suppose to take four day of bombarding.
Putting the pieces together, Lu Jin could acknowledge his breakthrough, the energy qi that his body absorbed was repeatedly cracking the seal on his dantian.
Sending the energy qi towards Tu Feng his body greedily absorbed, made the sword qi ravage the seal time after time, bringing the seal to it's limit and finally breaking it.
"But the amount of sword qi in my dantian is still far from reaching the limit of the second section, then there is the seal to the third section, I really need more energy stones if I want to keep up my pace," Lu Jin was saying when Tu Feng came inside the room.
"Master you are awake already, I thought you would have slept for a bit longer," Tu Feng said
"I will be leaving, focus on your cultivation, yes, before I forget, have you find out the reward for being the sword representative," Lu Jin asked
"I asked a senior about it, he told me the sword representative will receive three time his allowance, he or she will be able to use the sword room once a week for every month and for every month he or she will be able to use sword valley, it is a place where sword qi and sword energy stones are abundance all around the area," Tu Feng explained, craving for such a reward even if it was out of his reach.
Hearing the reward, Lu Jin was shocked, no wonder the students of sword hall will be so angry with him, he said, "to be able to represent sword hall won't be so easy. It to be the best among the best among your classmates and your seniors."
"I have hope that master can do it," Tu Feng said, showing his support
"It not about if I can do it, is that there is no time, if base on the circulating rumors, sword master is now forced to choose a representative, I won't be chosen because of my weak strength, infact no xiantian realm cultivator will be chosen and only Martial Prince Realm cultivators will have the chance to be chosen to represent the sword hall," Lu Jin said after calculating the amounts of rewards involved.
He continued, "you should join a group as fast as possible, I might even join one after I come back from my mission."
"Why don't master create a group, instead of joining one and I'm sure with master's talent students will want to join," Tu Feng
"I already have a group, just not for students to join when they are interested," Lu Jin said
"May I ask how many members, master have in his group?" Tu Feng asked curiously
"There are only two members in the group, you and me," Lu Jin answered
"Then why would master advice me to join a group of another student?" still trying to clear his doubt, Tu Feng asked
"My group won't be known by students, it will only be known by the members of the group. Each group is formed for benefits, so is my group," Lu Jin
"Can master throw some lights on the benefits we the members of your group wi.....ll re....ceive?" Tu Feng asked, dragging the last words as he saw Lu Jin's facial expression changing
Looking at Tu Feng, Lu Jin just doesn't know if he should throw him out of the room, how could he ask such a silly question, he asked, "you been able to have a perfect dantian, been able to get a mortal rank cultivation technique without spending a dim, having a mortal rank battle technique to browse through and a master who will solve your doubts and problems in your sword techniques, doesn't that count as benefits?"
Hearing all the things his master mentioned, Tu Feng was embarrassed, trying to avoid anymore scolding from Lu Jin, he said, "is there any benefits for master, because the way I'm seeing it, master is the one providing the benefits here."
Not minding how Tu Feng changed the topic, Lu Jin asked, "have you heard the saying, feeding the pig to a full size, inorder to taste the sweetness of it's pork?"
Understanding the meaning of what Lu Jin said, taking a step back, Tu Feng swallowed hard
Seeing Tu Feng's response to his word, Lu Jin smiled as he said, "looks like you get it, you are the pig in the statement, well, not only is the pig, I will get more pigs to feed but you all have to be willing to be fed."
"Master, I'm sure that you don't mean to eat me right?" Tu Feng asked, trying to find the meaning of Lu Jin's words.
"Of course not, but I will use your abilities, your skills, your body and your cultivation realm to achieve my goals," Lu Jin said, standing up, he said, "cultivate hard and try to move up your room rank, I will be behind you."
Tu Feng was dazed as he tried to process the information he received from Lu Jin, coming back to reality, Tu Feng could not see Lu Jin in his room.
"Looks like he left, I should try stabilizing my foundation and increasing my cultivation rank as soon as possible," Tu Feng said as he sat cross-legged on the ground, using the sword qi in his dantian to strengthen the circumference of his dantian.
.....
The next day, Lu Jin moved towards the lecture hall/room of the sword hall.
Lu Jin could see senior students stepping into the lecture hall, most seniors were coming in on their own, others in group of two and three, they could not restrain their aura without leaving a trace of it, even if they tried to restrain it.
But there was these groups, three in particular if we are keeping check, they didn't bother to restrain their auras, showing their powerful cultivation realm.
"It the three main groups of xiantian realm building, having the most number of students,"
"They were formed by the 1st rank, 2nd rank and 4th rank xiantian realm students,"
"Why did the 3rd rank student not form his own group?" Lu Jin curiously asked
Looking at Lu Jin and knowing he was a new student, the senior said, "it rumoured that he is from the *Assassination House* and he is a loner, always keeping to himself."
Hearing the name of the organization, Lu Jin could tell what they do, he asked, "does the academy not care if their students die mysteriously or vanish into thin air, without leaving a trace?"
Hearing Lu Jin's question been associated with the Assassination House, the senior said, "the Assassination House has been jointly approved by the major powers of the city, inorder to carry out their dirty works."
Watching as they left, Lu Jin could see that his life was in a serious trouble, if a student was willing to hire an assassin, the assassin will have no fear or regard even if he was representing the sword hall.
"I will have to face it when the time comes," Lu Jin said as he took his seat.
.....
"Xu Chan, have you heard about the one representing the sword hall, looks like even you were not good enough for the sword master,"
"Hahahaha Fu Dai, even you were not chosen, why must you rub salt on Xu Chan injury, you must be happy about it,"
"Gui Ao, you should be very ashamed of yourself, even with all the resources you get from your members, you are not still able to surpass Nu Han in the ranking, what a waste of resources, maybe you just split your group into two, giving me and Xu Chan to share," Fu Dai said without holding anything back.
Hearing what Fu Dai said about Gui Ao, Xu Chan chuckled, he said, "Fu Dai, you know that Gui Ao not been able to defeat Nu Han is his biggest embarrassment in the sword hall and you telling him to his face is really humiliating."
"Hmph, I will just tell you to be careful, the outside world is not as safe as the sword hall, second rank xiantian realm student," Gui Ao said, not hiding the killing intent he has for Fu Dai.
"You should even be more careful together with those pets of yours, moving around the sword hall as if you own this place, rich flattering punks," Fu Dai replied, not backing down
Hearing the both of them bickering, Xu Chan smiled, he just wished the both of them will tear each other apart, leaving only his group still existing.
"Looks likes everyone is here, let start," the elder taking the lecture said as he stood at the front of the class
"GREETING ELDER," the class said as they bowed towards the elder.
"You can sit," the elder said
"I'm going to talk on the uses of life spirit, if you can communicate well with your life spirit, your cultivating speed will increase and your battle prowess will be way higher than your peers, who don't have the same amount of cooperation you have with your life spirit," the elder said, telling them the most basics uses of a life spirit.
"First, what is life spirit, anybody have anything to say? the elder asked
"Life Spirit could be said to be the cultivation talent of a cultivator," Gui Ao answered feeling proud and overflowing with confidence of his answer.
"What you said is right, but life spirit is more than that, it i...
"Hahahahahaha, Gui Ao, looks like what you said is not really correct, all what your clan taught you was nothing compared to the knowledge of an elder of sword hall, hahahaha," Fu Dai laughed as he said to Gui Ao.
Hearing what Fu Dai said, Gui Ao what so angry that he started speculating that the elder did it on purpose.
"Fu Dai, you should mind your manners," the elder said as he looked at Fu Dai
"I'm sorry elder Ju, I will not try it again," Fu Dai said politely, the arrogant he displayed for Gui Ao was not seen.
"As I was saying, what Gui Ao said about the life spirit being the talent of a cultivator, is correct, but life spirit is more than just the talent of a cultivator, it is the focal factor in cultivation.
"What does elder Ju mean by the focal factor in cultivation?" a student asked
"What I mean by the life spirit being the focal factor is that, the main path of cultivation is absorbing energy qi from the world and using it to increase your strength, so, the ability to absorb energy qi fluently, is gotten from your life spirit, although some cultivators can absorb with their bodies, it can never compare to those who have a life spirit," elder Ju said, answering the question of the student
"Elder Ju, are there other paths to cultivation excluding the energy qi cultivation?" a student asked another question
"The other paths to cultivation, it will be left for another day. You all should know that, if your life spirit have not manifested, you won't be able to cultivate, so life spirits are innate. Life Spirit helps in the comprehension of cultivation techniques and battle techniques, it can be used as a weapon when cultivators harmonized with it." elder Ju didn't answer as he continued his lecture.
Hearing this, Lu Jin and Tu Feng was shocked, they never knew that life spirit could help in their comprehension of cultivation techniques and battle techniques.
"Martial Prince Realm cultivators draw energy qi, harmonizing with it to launch attack stronger than when using just their energy qi, how do you think they draw energy qi?" elder Ju asked
"There life spirit, they use their life spirit," a student answered
"Yes, the life spirit is what they use, so if a cultivator without a life spirit manage to reach the Martial Prince Realm, he or she should only fight a Martial Prince(s) that are three ranks below them," elder Ju said, if one follows his gaze, it could be seen that he was looking at Lu Jin.
New Chapter.......
Late, I know, I'm sorry, got somethings going on but forget about that......
Have a good night and wonderful dreams......
Jesus loves you always, don't have to be ashamed to repent for He shall surely accept you........
Thanks for your time and patience with Me and Tu Feng...........
When elder Ju looked at Lu Jin, there was no contempt in his gaze, only sorrow and pity could be seen.
"In the Martial King Realm, the transformation of their life spirits brought forth the massive difference between them and Martial Prince Realm cultivators," elder Ju explained
"Elder Ju, what the difference between the Martial King Realm and the Martial Emperor Realm?" Xu Chan asked
"I don't really know the difference as no Martial Emperor has appeared in our academy ever since it creation, but the relics and old scripts we gotten from adventures and expeditions, it said that the difference is base also on their life spirits,. so you can see that the life spirit of a cultivator following the main path of cultivation is mandatory," elder Ju answered.
First time hearing this, Lu Jin was crying, yes, he was really crying, students seeing him will think that it was because he doesn't have a life spirit, but it was not. He was crying tears of joy, of excitement, of happiness and so on, the feeling of escaping a calamity was really exhilarating.
Seeing the little commotion Lu Jin's crying caused, elder Ju tried comforting him, he said, "there are other paths in cultivation, there is the Body Building Path, Phantom cultivation, the other paths are not approved by some major powers of the cultivation world, so I won't advice you or any other person to practice such cultivation."
Hearing the other paths, Lu Jin asked, "can elder explain the Body Building Path?"
Not intending to go towards that topic, but seeing the eagerness to learn from Lu Jin, elder Ju sighed as he said, "the Body Building could be said to be even more painful and expensive than the energy qi cultivation. It uses natural treasures to strengthen the bodies, but the painful part is that, the lower Gu Gongy World doesn't have the cultivation technique for Body Building Emperor Realm cultivators, maybe the higher Gu Gongy World would have, that my speculation cause I haven't been there and have never known anyone from there."
Although Lu Jin have not been able to harmonize with his life spirit, he has a feeling that the great sword life spirit, will be very heavy and inorder to use it, one must be physically strong, so cultivating in the Body Building techniques will do him good.
After three hours of lecture, elder Ju left, leaving the students to their own business.
"You are Lu Jin right, you becoming the representative of the sword hall and not having a life spirit is really a disaster for the sword hall, why don't you reject it, as you won't be able to sustain it for long," Gui Ao said as he came with two of his group members to where Lu Jin is sitting.
Seeing Gui Ao haughty attitude, Lu Jin showed no emotion as he replied, "how can one reject something he never had, even I can't reject something that isn't mine."
Hearing Lu Jin's reply, Gui Ao was shocked, the two students following him was shocked, the students around where shocked, Tu Feng was shocked, Fu Dai was shocked, Xu Chan was shocked, Ao Daj was shocked, Bai Zing was shocked, Wun Zhan was shocked and even Lu Jin himself, was not shocked, he was the one who said it.
After contemplating on the issue, they could see that some pieces didn't add up. The sword master never said anything about Lu Jin being the sword representative, the elders of didn't say anything either, there was no coronation, no festival, no congratulations, no nothing, it was like any other day in the sword hall.
Looking at Lu Jin now, the students could not see anything special about him, well maybe only his pretty face, but other than that, nothing. The body tempering realm was different from the xiantian realm. In the body tempering realm, one can do without a life spirit if on the Energy Qi Path of cultivation, but stepping into the xiantian realm, without life spirit, your progress in cultivation would be as slow as a snail, comprehending high quality cultivation techniques and battle techniques would take forever and harmonizing with a life spirit would be impossible as well, they were really not suited for the Energy Qi Path.
Suddenly, the feeling of superiority over Lu Jin was born and Lu Jin's days in the academy would have been worse if he didn't say and do this.
"And me not using a life spirit in any of my battles or not using it during my cultivation in the BODY TEMPERING REALM does not mean, I don't have a life spirit," Lu Jin said as he emphasized on the word body tempering realm.
"Does that means you have a life spirit?" Ao Daj asked after hearing what Lu Jin said
Not answering, Lu Jin stood up as he walked towards the door.
Seeing Lu Jin leaving without answering him, Ao Daj shouted, "ARE YOU JUST GOING TO LEAVE YOUR SENIORS HA....."
Not able to finish his words Ao Daj stopped, looking at the door, he was shocked and not only Ao Daj, all the students in the lecture hall was shocked while looking at the door.
Six sword phantoms were rotating behind Lu Jin, and each have different sizes, shapes and auras.
"That's his life spirit, it's a six attribute life spirit, only the wood element is not there,"
"Although they are students with six elements attribute and even seven element life spirit but he could still be counted among the top 50 students in over 5,000 students in the academy,"
"A genius indeed, no wonder he could reach the second part of the second stage of the gravity zone in the training hall."
Seeing the students talking about Lu Jin, Ao Daj was still unhappy about Lu Jin not answering his question, he said, "is it because you have a six elements attribute life spirit that you no longer have respects for you...,"
Not letting Ao Daj finish what he is saying, Wun Zhan interrupted, he said, "you don't have to say anything about Lu Jin disrespecting his seniors because he answered your question. You asked if he a life spirit, he showed you your answer."
Not able to refute what Wun Zhan said, Ao Daj kept quiet, adding Wun Zhan and Lu Jin to his list of students to get ride of.
Leaving the lecture hall, Lu Jin immediately left to pick a mission.
The mission hall is in the center of the academy, together with the Alchemy hall and Armoury hall.
The missions in the mission hall are placed by the elders of the sect, the students and by high ranking cultivators who need the help of the academy's students.
There are many missions, from searching for herbs or ores to killing of rogue cultivators and demonic beasts hiding in human cities.
"I should probably choose a mission that will get me a lot of energy stones and will be ok for me to handle as a rank two xiantian realm cultivator," Lu Jin said, looking through the mission board on the wall.
"Lu Jin long time no see, looks like you came for a mission also," Guang Chan said as he walked towards Lu Jin with some students.
"Guang Chan, it has only been two weeks and you are saying long time no see," Lu Jin replied
"Hahahahaha, compared to the time we spent in the outer academy rooms, it has really been a long time," Guang Chan said
"I heard that you joined the Water Elemental Hall, how has it been? Lu Jin asked seeking some inside information
"Well, the senior sisters has been giving me a really hard time, but the views I get is really worth the troubles. How about you, anything interesting?" Guang Chan asked.
"Not really, I normally see Tu Feng and attended one lecture that was really helpful," Lu Jin answered, not intending to elaborate.
"Junior brother Guang we got to hurry," a senior brother from the water elemental hall said, as he urges Guang Chan to hurry.
"Ok I coming," Guang Chan said to his senior brother, facing Lu Jin he said, "Lu Jin I will be going now, maybe I will see you later."
"Ok, goodbye," Lu Jin said
Focusing back to the mission board, Lu Jin focused on missions that have to do with Moon Night Forest.
After comprehending a Bloodthirsty type of sword intent, he could feel that his self created technique, *Massacre* is really lacking in artistic concepts.
To be able to bring his technique to the level of a Bloodthirsty sword intent, a massacre need to be carried out, so going on this mission, he have to choose a place that he can carry out a massacre and the Moon Night Forest was really the ideal place.
Bring the horn of a rank two demon commander (Rhinoceros), it's skin, it's tail and it's core.
Rewards:
1,500 Low grade energy stones
1,200 Academy's points.
For students below the fourth rank of xiantian realm.
Seeing the mission, Lu Jin accepted it.
Bring the blood and the lungs of a rank one demon commander (Python).
Rewards:
1,100 Low grade energy stones
1,000 Academy's points.
For students below the third rank of xiantian realm.
Energy Stones can be classified into five grades, they are:
1) Low grade
2) Middle grade
3) Top grade
4) Supreme grade
5) Ultimate grade
Currently, the Academy does not have a single Supreme grade energy stone.
1 middle grade energy stone could be traded for 5,000 Low grade energy stones.
Accepting both missions to acquire the body parts from the moon night forest, Lu Jin went to sign for the missions.
Seeing the missions Lu Jin chose, the elder stationed there asked, "are you going alone or with a group?"
Hearing the question the elder asked, Lu Jin knew he was going into the forest alone and not with a group, but, what the hell, how does it concern the elder, he replied, "I'm going with a group and not by self."
"Ok, be careful and comeback safe," the elder said as he went back to what he was doing before Lu Jin came.
After signing his name, Lu Jin left the mission room, moving towards the gate of the academy, Lu Jin descended down the mountain with caution.
"Yes I lied, but you should reason with me, what benefits will I gain if I said I was hunting alone,"
"It doesn't matter, you were saying that the elder have no business with your mission but you still lied with a straight face,"
"I don't care what you deem right, I will work only for my benefits in this ruthless world,"
Have you come to a point that you start talking to yourself and arguing with yourself? That is what I, Lu Jin, is passing through. But it not a bad thing, it helps me reason from two different angles and view points, in doing so, I avoid unnecessary problems.
Reaching the Forest, Lu Jin knew that it won't be like last time when he was brought for the annual competition, where only demon soldiers and newly advance demon commanders were allowed.
"Massacre doesn't have to do with how strong the ones that are killed are, it is feeling the expressions, the emotions, the blood, the smell, the moment and the excitement brought by it," Lu Jin said, after comprehending a Bloodthirsty sword intent, his understanding to killing, massacre and slaughter had increased and his ability to kill, massacre and slaughter has increased.
He said, "I hear cultivators saying, *to kill without emotion, slaughter without feeling, massacre until you are standing on a mountain of corpses and not feeling anything makes one a Bloodthirsty Demon,* but base on my understanding of being bloodthirsty, I will say, *to kill with emotions, to slaughter with feelings, to massacre until you form a mountain of corpses while feeling every death, every scream, every curse, every plead, every hate in their gaze and still having the urge to continue killing, to continue slaughtering, to continue massacring, now that makes one a Bloodthirsty Demon*."
After almost a week in xiantian realm, Lu Jin can now harmonize with his life spirit.
Harmonizing with the lighting attribute sword spirit, Lu Jin rushed towards the park of wolves at his front.
New Chapter today..........

Goodnight Everyone and have nice dreams...
