Capítulo 2: Martial school
Entering his house Cyrus quickly headed towards the shower to take a shower.
The house wasn't very big, it was very simple with few rooms, just 2 bedrooms, a kitchen, a bathroom and a living room.
Coming out of the bath Cyrus felt a little hungry and went to prepare a simple meal while thinking, "I need to have at least Qi Refinement realm strength to be able to leave the village and venture out safely with my cultivation speed I should be able to That's when I'm 13."
"It's still going to take a long time, but it's still faster than my father, he left when he was 15."
Then Cyrus finished eating and went towards his bed and took out 2 books one was a martial skill the skill was called flaming fists and it was the skill he used to defeat the centipede.
It was a very powerful skill that created flames in his fists, causing great damage to his opponents, Cyrus trained a lot in this skill and had achieved great success in the 1st layer of the skill, which had a total of 4 layers and each layer was divided into beginning, small success, great success and perfection.
The second book was his father's greatest treasure, it was a body strengthening skill that his own father had created.
His father had told Cyrus several incredible stories, but the most impactful of all was when his father was hunting a demonic cultivator and was seriously injured by him in their fight.
His father was on the verge of death, but suddenly large flames surrounded him, leaving him in a panic, but when the flames touched him, not only did they not hurt him, but he was quickly healed by the flames.
Then while he was in the sea of flames, he saw a large phoenix come out of a cave he was near and fly towards the sky surrounded by a sea of flames that made the surrounding vegetation bloom as if it were spring. He looked at the phoenix in complete disbelief and ended up being inspired by that scene and began to develop his body refinement technique.
His father believed that the phoenix must be in a moment of enlightenment in his cultivation or even going through nirvana, but it didn't matter that scene would forever be in his mind, it was one of the most important moments in his life and that would influence him forever. This story always cheered Cyrus up and he always dreamed of finding that phoenix and witnessing the same scene that his father saw.
His father named the technique 'nirvana rebirth' and worked on it practically all his life, developing it on three levels, strengthening the skin, muscles and finally the bones.
Each divided level was equivalent to a cultivation realm with bone refinement being equivalent in strength to foundation realm which was the realm that came after Qi refinement.
Because of this technique he was one of the most powerful cultivators in the foundation realm, but due to a huge fight where he almost died and his foundation was greatly damaged which ended his cultivator's life and made him return home and have a son.
His father ended up dying when Cyrus was still 5 years old due to his injuries. His father's only regret was not taking his body strengthening technique to the highest level; he knew that bone refinement was not the limit of his technique.
That's why Cyrus had two goals, one was to explore the world and find everything that was incredible and mysterious in the world and the second was to take his father's technique to the highest level, thus completing his father's goal.
Cyrus stroked the book that his father had written and thought: "To improve this technique the first step is to master it completely, now I am still in the small success of skin refinement, soon I will advance and enter the great success I still have a long way to go."
Cyrus then put away his martial skills and lay down on his bed and began to sleep the next day he would continue his training.
The next morning Cyrus woke up, but unlike other mornings where he woke up alone, today someone came knocking on his door speaking in an excited voice.
"Hey man it's me Ryan wakes up soon you have to see this."
Cyrus quickly stood up and shouted, "I'm coming."
Cyrus quickly got dressed and left he knew that something big had happened after all to his lazy friend who always found an excuse to sleep but wake up before him the world must have at least turned upside down.
When Cyrus left, he soon saw all the villagers very excited and making a lot of noise about something, but Cyrus couldn't understand anything they were saying because of the commotion.
Then he turned to his friend who seemed to have received a jolt of energy and asked, "What's going on here, why is everyone so excited?"
Ryan smiled and said: "I'll explain it to you as we walk, but now we have to go in front of the crowd, seriously this is incredible you're going to go crazy when I tell you."
Cyrus nodded and the two began to run and make their way through the crowd and then Ryan began to explain: "I still can't believe it anymore this morning a big bird flew towards our village at first my father who was guarding it thought it was an attack from a powerful demonic beast, but soon he realized that there was a person on top of the beast."
"They stopped at the entrance of the village and my father went to talk to him and guess what... They are from a large martial arts school and are looking for new disciples to join their school."
Cyrus was completely surprised by his friend's words. He knew about the schools specializing in training martial artists. His father had talked about them and he even tried to enter, but failed the test.
Cyrus then asked his friend, "Is this really true? These schools normally test for disciples in their schools and people have to come to them to take the tests like they are coming to take the tests in our village?"
Ryan nodded and said, "That's right, my father had the same question, but one of the school's cultivators responded, it turns out that one of the main elders of the school came from a small village in the desert so he created this system where some examiners go to isolated places to find some talents and give them opportunities and it's not just the our village they have already been to other villages and picked up some talented children our village is the last one on their trip and then they are going to take everyone to the martial arts school."
Listening to his friend Cyrus' explanation, he understood that because of his origins, this old man had sympathy for people in a similar situation to his and created a program to give these people chances.
Cyrus then thought: "That's a good thing, if I pass the assessment, I will be able to explore the world much sooner than I imagined and also my cultivation will advance much faster after all with a teacher guiding me the path of cultivation becomes much easier, my father said that if he had entered the martial arts school at that time his achievements would have been much greater so I can't miss this chance."
The two then ran towards the front of the crowd and soon arrived at the scene.
Cyrus stopped and looked towards a large bird that was in front of the village and was completely in awe of the beast, however his gaze was soon diverted to a group that was talking to the village leaders, they were wearing red vests with a fist-shaped coat of arms and they all looked very powerful only the atmosphere around them gave off that feeling.
Beside them were also some children in simpler clothes who seemed to be very excited as they chatted amongst themselves.
Cyrus looked at them and thought: "These must be the children from other villages who have already passed the test, they really seem very strong."
Cyrus then looked at one of them who was the tallest and who looked to be between 13 and 14 years old and who was in the 8th stage of body refining and who was the strongest of the group.
Cyrus then thought: "He must be 13 to 14 years old with an 8th stage cultivation, he is without a doubt a genius, but compared to my cultivation speed at that age I would be at least at the 9th stage of body refinement, I don't know what the test, but I should be able to pass."
Cyrus had a lot of confidence in his talent, he knew it wasn't a heaven defying talent, but he had full confidence that his talent was the best among the children he had seen. Cyrus and Ryan started talking to each other, talking about what their life would be like at a martial arts school and saying a lot of stupid things.
Meanwhile, the village leaders were talking to the cultivators outside in a friendly manner and soon they finished arguing and turned towards the crowd.
