Huala!
Using the book of basic cultivation, Xiao Hu finally reached the Silver Spirit Late Stage. Around this time, Xiao Hu couldn't just reach the Gold Spirit Stage. He did everything he could but it seemed to not work at all.
Following the Basic Path of Cultivation which seemed to be a common elementary book of this world, Xiao Hu was able to feel and gather the spirit energy around him causing his spirit to grow. Reaching Silver Spirit Late Stage for a single year is considered a prodigy in this world of cultivation but Xiao Hu had no way of knowing that.
All he did was to follow the instructions in the book as if reading an elementary math book back on earth.
However, right now,
Xiao Hu believed he reached a bottleneck!
Shit!
"Big Brother! Food is ready!"
"Alright, coming!"
Over the year, Xiao Hu mainly focused on his spirit cultivation. Although there were other books like Basic Martial Arts, Flying Wind Steps, and Soaring Spirit Technique. He wasn't able to understand the content of the book and unable to learn the techniques. Since most of the book contained thin pages with scribble without a detailed description.
Even if Xiao Hu followed the scribbled stance, nothing would happen at all. It was like dancing normally. Unlike those experts he witnessed back in the city, they could clearly soar through the sky!
In this case, he basically needed a teacher!
In the kitchen, Xiao Hu saw his cute little sister. Fortunately for them, there was a clean and natural lake a few li away from their home.
Deep in the forest, the lake helped them sustained everyday life without worries. Every noon, Xiao Hu would accompany her sister to bathe separately in the lake and gather a few buckets of water for drinking and cooking.
After reaching Bronze stage, Xiao Hu found out that he became physically stronger that he could lift a few barrels of water in his hands without a sweat! This made things easier for them.
Furthermore, Xiao Hu also visited the Earthly Moon Tiger Sect city last month and found out that it became a ghost town. Dead bodies rotted and became skeletons scattered in the streets. Xiao Hu never thought of visiting again.
Earthly Moon Tiger Sect palace was also ransacked by some survivor other than him. Thinking back on what happened, Xiao Hu couldn't help but shiver.
"Big Brother let's eat!"
His sister reminded Xiao Hu once again, he noticed the boiled chicken on the bowl. Xiao Hu's stomach growled like a beast as he sat down and eat happily with his sister. This everyday life was like Xiao Hu's dream. It was so peaceful. However, it only lasted for a moment. Every night, Xiao Hu would remember the bloody scene that occurred that day in the city.
Blood splashing everywhere!
Countless heads rolling in the ground, and dismembered limbs oozing with red liquid!
The strong trampled the weak for an outrageous reason!
The world which means of survival of the fittest.
This event caused great motivation for Xiao Hu to get stronger. Reaching a bottleneck greatly troubled Xiao Hu.
'Is there really no other choice?'
The only choices left in his mind is 'to stay and wait for death' or 'travel and seek for answers'.
The choice was obvious, but Xiao Hu hesitated. He wasn't alone, at least he wanted to give his sister a good life. To see her marry happily and have cute children of her own was one of a normal family member would look forward to.
In the end, Xiao Hu decided to travel.
Xiao Yun has just turned 11 over the year, since the day her brother came back from the city with blood all over his clothes. Xiao Yun decided to follow her big brother for the rest of her life afraid of losing her only relative.
In this case, convincing his little sister wasn't hard at all.
After a few talks about the plan, the siblings quickly packed up the things they needed in the storage ring.
In the next morning, Xiao Hu and Xiao Hu finally set foot in the whole new world they never seen before. Both children decided on the path of adventure, the boy was 15 years of age and the girl was 11. Both lacking in terms of knowledge, without any backing of a sect, without anyone to rely on but themselves.
The plan was simple. Head north and look for a new city.
Thus, began a year of hell for Xiao Hu.
He never thought the new world was filled with danger other than the people. Aside from the terrain, the most dangerous thing was the wild beasts! Everything went beyond his expectation.
In the first few months, the siblings encounter a few dozen herds of wild beasts! If Xiao Hu didn't reach the Silver Spirit Late Stage by that time they probably wouldn't survive. They kept on running and running time after time. Carrying his sister behind his back, chased by unknown dozens of monsters larger than them.
Sometimes Xiao Hu would use a twig to fend off a large snakelike monster that managed to corner them in a valley. Luckily, the Blue Virtuous Serpent gave up eating them and turned around. The siblings manage to survive once more.
The year went by, the siblings manage to walk ten thousand li away from their home. Xiao Hu still couldn't break through to the Gold Spirit Realm. However, they manage to find a city.
This time, the city was ten times larger!
Many people passed by! After two years Xiao Yun and Xiao Hu finally saw another human being aside from the wild beasts! They almost shed to tears.
The siblings quickly entered the city. Xiao Hu paid 3 silver taels for the entrance. The storage ring that he looted had few hundred gold taels, which is why gold isn't a problem for now.
Entering the city, the siblings were shocked by how crowded it was!
It seemed there is an event going on at this day. Xiao Hu managed to ask a middle-aged passerby.
"Hey, mister, why are there so many people."
The passerby stopped and looked at the siblings from head to toe. He had a mysterious look on his face.
If this man shaved all the beard around his face, many beauties would definitely flock around his side!
"Oh, you didn't know? You're a young traveler. Well, brother, today is the day the Jade City Ten Great Sect is recruiting disciples!"
They looked so poor yet they didn't seem to suffer from hunger. Their body is perfectly normal and the boy seemed to be a cultivator. Interesting.
"Are you perhaps looking for a Sect brother?"
Xiao Hu contemplated for a while and made a slight nod. Having a sect is like having a home.
"I wonder what sect is the best."
"Worry not brother, as long as you are accepted in one of the Jade City Great Ten Sect, all your worries will vanish!"
"Oh really, mister, can everyone apply to be a disciple?"
"Of course! As long as you pass their tests!" The middle-aged man laughs.
This two are really clueless!
"Mister where can I take the test?"
"Well little brother, look they're all over the place! Just line up and wait for your turn!"
Xiao Hu looked around and saw a large number of people lining up in different places. 'I see' Xiao Hu thought.
"Mister, what are the tests given?"
"Haha little brother its simple, first is the disciple must have a great understanding about the basic cultivation, second is the disciple must have silver spirit and above. This seemed to be easy for you and the third is a bit harder!"
Standing next to each other, Xiao Hu gave the middle-aged man a cautious look. The middle-aged man was right on the spot. Everything about the basic cultivation was written in the book he had. So, answering questions about it was easy as pie for Xiao Hu.
However, how did this guy know the second test would be easy for me? Did he sense that I am already a Silver Spirit Late Stage? This dude definitely not normal! Anyhow, Xiao Hu wouldn't pry deeper than he could. The middle-aged man kindly answered his question so he had a good impression of him.
"Mister, what's the third test?"
"Haha, I won't spoil little brother too much. If you really want to take the test, then follow me."
"Can I bring my sister along?"
"Of course!"
Xiao Yun kept her mouth shut all the time, it was her first time entering a city. She was quietly familiarizing things.
….
Soon, the middle-aged man took the siblings in a nearby palace entrance. Many people are lining up to take the test. On the palace gates, the name of the sect was shown.
Primordial Demon Dragon Sect
"Mister, may I ask where sect name originates?"
"Oh, you didn't even know this huh? The name came from the creator strongest beast ever had although some disciple surpassed the creator's beast, the name will remain forever."
"I see."
"By the way, mister. How many disciples the sect is accepting."
"Hmm. Around 3 each year? Maybe 2?"
WHAT!? Mister your kidding? While walking, Xiao Hu saw a hundred of youngsters lined up in for each sect! It was hard to miss.
Out of these hundreds, only 3 is the maximum!? Just how hard the third test is?
"Anyway, take this token and pass it on the examiner in the front."
"But mister, the line…"
"Just pass it on."
Alright!
Xiao Hu ignored the line and went straight to the examiner table.
"Umh, here." Xiao Hu handed the wooden token to the examiner.
The examiner verifies to token. "Where did you get this?"
Xiao Hu turned around and was about to point at the middle-aged beardy man. However, he was gone!
"He was—there?"
The examiner sighed, this token was a master token of the Primordial Demon Dragon Sect which means at any means this student is a special case. In cases, a normal disciple examiner like him didn't have to bother or else he would only invite trouble.
"Anyway get in."
Holding Xiao Yun at his side, he asked. "Can I bring my sister?"
The examiner only took a glance. "Just get in."
That moment, Xiao Hu received countless stare of anger and envy. Furthermore, he didn't know the token gave him a skip from the 1st and 2nd tests.
The moment he entered the palace gate, a wide tiled field appeared in front of him.
Xiao Hu was amazed, the spaciousness was more like a half soccer field.
"This way please," Soon a blue-robed male servant approached Xiao Hu.
Soon, Xiao Hu quickly followed the servant.
"I will be the examiner for the final test." The servant spoke as they walked.
Xiao Hu was dumbfounded. Final test? How about the 1st and 2nd? Did I pass?
Soon, the servant took them in a courtyard filled with flowers and herbs.
"Whoaa. Pretty." Xiao Yun exclaimed, she fell in love at the first sight of this place.
Then, they stopped in front of a single table in which 3 large eggs were laid.
"This is…"
"A dragon eggs. A dragon egg would hatch after a few hundred years; however, disciple could make it hatch in a year through a contract, feeding the egg with spirit energy greatly increased the dragon development and soon it can transform into a powerful dragon that depending on your own spirit. These eggs could hatch a Blazing Sun Drake, a Blue Ocean Drake, or a Demon Drake. It all depends on your capabilities. Of course, the sect will provide the materials for your cultivation."
"This is the final test, form a contract in one of these eggs and officially become a Primordial Demon Dragon Sect disciple!"
Xiao Hu inhaled a deep breath as the servant gestured for him to start.
"Umh, may I ask how to form a contract?"
…
…
That moment the servant was all excited for the new disciple to enter the sect. He imagined what type of dragon he would choose is it the blue, red, or the black dragon? However, reality failed him.
"What did you say?" The servant couldn't believe his ears.
"Mister, how should I form a contract?" Xiao Hu shrugged, the Basic Book of Cultivation which was the only source of knowledge for Xiao Hu only contained things about Spirit sense and Cultivation. There was nothing about spirit contracted beasts!
"Excuse me for a moment,"
The servant hurriedly left the courtyard to verify something, how could this boy be here without passing the 1st test! Contracting a beast is a common sense in this world of cultivators. How could he not know!?
"Big Brother what's going to happen?" Xiao Yun asked worriedly.
"It's okay, it's just a test. Big Brother is going to finish it and earn us a home!"
"Big Brother you can do it!" Xiao Yun encourages her brother just like her late mom told her.
Xiao Hu smiled and patted her little sister's head. Yes, the moment he passed the test, his worries might completely vanish just like that middle-aged man said.
Soon, the servant returned to the courtyard. This time there was a calm look on his face. He saw the token that the boy handed to the first examiner, it was naturally legit. Even the master's spirit energy could be sensed within the wooden token.
"This servant verifies something, sorry for the wait."
"It's okay." Xiao Hu quickly replied waving his hand.
Let's get this over with.
He was confidently ready!
"Alright, this servant will guide you on contracting one of the eggs. Please choose."
Xiao Hu quickly chose the middle egg.
"Please place your hand on the egg."
Xiao Hu followed the servant examiner and gently placed his palm on the egg.
"Now, please close your eyes and gather your spirit energy on your palm. Soon, you would feel the egg sucking your energy. Just let it be. Some may take a lot and some may take just a little energy. After they finished, this dragon egg would be willing to be your servant and sent you its spirit energy, once you accepted that energy. The contract is finished. It is like a 'give and take', however, for a beast, it meant a lot more since it will be dependent on your spirit energy to develop its own. Now relax."
Gathering the spirit energy around his palm was the most basic of the basic. Xiao Hu felt relaxed.
However, it was at that moment he felt something wrong.
The moment the dragon egg sensed an otherworldly spirit energy, it tried to suck it forcefully but the moment that tiny energy went out of Xiao Hu's palm a massive reaction occurred. Xiao Hu's spirit energy rejected the dragon egg causing it to bounce back hard into Xiao Hu's palm creating a tiny forceful shockwave!
Boom!
"Ahh!" Xiao Yun cried out as he was thrown away by the shock wave. Same goes for the examiner table and the eggs.
"Such rejection!!" The examiner cried out as he was forced back by the wave, however, as an old servant. He was also a senior disciple one step away from becoming a master. He could be considered as a strong one. The shock wave was nothing at all. So, he quickly caught the egg one after another and placed it gently on the ground.
"Big Brother!"
Thankfully the ground was filled with soft grass, Xiao Yun landed safely without fatal injury. She quickly rushed towards her brother.
On the other hand, Xiao Hu felt his spirit energy within his body was chaotic. His insides became unbearably hot!
Unable to control his spirit energy, his blood circulation also went wild causing him to vomit a mouthful of fresh blood!
"Big Brother! What's happening! Help him!!" Xiao Yun panicked. The servant hurriedly checked Xiao Hu's pulse.
The servant never thought the dragon rejecting this boy's energy would be this worst! He could even die if left alone!
However, the servant didn't know it was actually the opposite! It was Xiao Hu's energy that rejected the dragon!
Having a participant died in the test would bring shame in the Primordial Demon Dragon Sect. They would lose the credibility of hiring a disciple! In this case, the senior servant also panicked.
He quickly brought out a High-grade Spirit Restoration Pill from his storage ring!
The servant hesitated for a while, it was actually an expensive pill given to him by his master. However, the sect reputation is more important than himself. So, he shoves the pill down in Xiao Hu's mouth.
As the name suggested, the pill taken its effect and restore Xiao Hu's spirit energy back to normal.
Xiao Hu's spirit energy became like a quiet sea after the storm!
Furthermore, the moment Xiao Hu calm down. His spirit finally made a breakthrough to the Golden Spirit Early Stage!
"Impossible! Did he just make a breakthrough! This… This is… Golden Spirit!!"
Having checked Xiao Hu's pulse, the servant exclaimed!
That moment, Xiao Hu momentarily opened his eyes.
"Big Brother!" Xiao Yun couldn't help her tears from falling down to his brother's cheeks.
"I'm okay, Yun'er don't cry"
At that moment, Xiao Hu noticed a blurry face looking down at him beside her sister. Xiao Hu would never forget the most important faces in his two-lifetime. Even though his consciousness was fading due to the exhaustion of breaking through he could still recognize that beautiful face.
"Sav… is that you?" Xiao Hu whispers.
At that moment, things changed. The blurry face which was looking weirdly at him widens its eyes.
"M..m.master, Babe? can you see me!?" Sav naturally panicked. She was actually excited, it was her wish to be seen by that man.
"Master!? Babe!? Hey, wake up! Don't die on me again!"
Sav who was silent the whole time finally spoke, clearly, the beautiful alluring voice resounded on Xiao Hu's mind. The sweet sound made him completely lose his consciousness in comfort.
No one noticed the faintly glowing half-flower sigil on Xiao Hu's other shoulder. It unconsciously revealed itself the moment Xiao Hu made a breakthrough!
Savannah, the 19th out of the 52 cards in Xiao Hu's deck of Waifu made her appearance!
