Chereads / Rise of Nyx / Chapter 5 - everyone gathers for testing

Chapter 5 - everyone gathers for testing

time flew by and soon 2 years past since moving to the city and me and yu turned 9, it's time for us to gather around the city hall in the center of 1st district and see if we get choosing to join a school or sect. we still had a 2 months till we have to go, but we have to go register first. I. this country there are 12 months a year, 31 days in each month and 24hrs a day. there are usually 4 seasons a year but it varies from place to place. waking up on my warm bed I stretch my hands, and heard cracking sounds coming from my back, I slide my body out of bed and walk towards my wardrobe. mum said it has war in it's name bx every day is a battle on looks and these are my Arsenal. I smile every time I remember that day. I pick out a pale blue sun dress, walking towards the mirror I check myself out. just shy of 4 feet 5inches of cuteness, my pale blue eyes have started turning darker blue over the 2 years, at first I was worried but the doctors but said I was healthy, just some maturity. I looked at my crystal white skin, that could put the prettiest baby to shame. my cherry red lips making me look more mature. long soft eyelashes that can flutter better then any butterfly. my long black hair that has the gives off a blue hint when shine with direct sunlight is shiny and soft as the demonic nine tale foxes tail. hehe I'm going to turn into an amazing beauty when I'm older. I said to myself as I turn away from the mirror. walking out of my room and into the kitchen I see yu sitting down drinking black tea. he grew up well in the past 2 years, he is 4 foot 8, which is a little tall for his age, his hair turned into a reddish brown color, his eyes turn into am emerald green with milk white skin, he was wearing a black robe which made him feel more fearsome, but also more handsome. he most likely going to grow up into a lady killer I mutter to.myself. sitting down I see look forward and see mum staring out the back window.

morning mum, can I have a Cup of tea and some eggs. I ask

oh, she turns and looks. good morning ny and sure give me a moment. as goes to open to make it

after breakfast mum called me and yu to come the front. as we walk to the front, we see a carriage. ready to take us to register for the talent selection.

yu, ny this will the first time your going into town yourself. I want you to be extra careful and make sure you watch out for the song clan. if you need help or I'm danger shatter this", as she past is a jade scroll.

okay we got it, and you worry to much, I say as I go give her a hug and walk into the carriage.

yu gives her a hug to and walks into the carriage.

as we are making our way into the first district we look out the sides to see how the land scale is changing. from open field and grass everywhere to buildings everywhere, so close there is no room to run around in. moving away from the window I ask yu, " are you excited in 2 months we get to see our talents and become stronger and maybe join a top sect or school" excitement clearly shown on my face,

hmpt with my talent I'm sure to be accepted into any of the top schools. but I never see you train anymore so who knows how stable your foundation will be" he gives a smugly remark

it is true that he hasn't seen me train, but there is good reason. about 1 year ago I became so much stronger them him, I can beat him with just a stick. training with him did me no good, so father pulled me aside and told me I need to stop sparing with yu and start sparring with him at night. not to hurt yu feelings. I smile at yu and say " do you want to make a bet?"

what kind of bet he says giving me a questionable look

we bet on our talent. who ever has the higher talent in two months is the winner. if I win you have to call me eternal big sister every time we meet". I smile while saying. thinking about how embarrassing he will be.

well that won't happen because I will win. yu says. if I win I want you to say out loud big brother yu is the best and no other guy can come". he gives a satisfied grin as he pictures it.

oh I wsnt to beat that grin off his face, you have a deal. reaching out my hand to shakes his. 20 minutes flew by with nothing interesting happening, we finally get to the first districts and tell the carriage guy to wait by the entrance to the 2nd district. me and yu make our way though the sea of people, trying to find city hall. as we are walking we see 2 people around the same age as us walk around with group of body guards pushing others out his way. he was walking when one of the guys told him look in our direction.

HEY YOU GIRL, the guy to the left yells.

I stop to see why he yelled at me. "who are you I ask" in a polite manner.

he and his friend and their body guards make there way toward us, hey you what's your name, as he stared at me.

I started to feel a weird disgust as he looks at me and say fang nyx, who are you.

I'm the 3rd son of the 2nd Prince song zong. and I want you to warm my.. before he could finish yu punched him square in the face. song zong flys into his bodyguard in the back. HOW DARE YOU HIT ME, NOT EVEN MY DAD HITS ME. he roared.

sorry I sliped, yu said acting innocent.

why you, boiling with rage" what are you standing around here for, get him, he roared.

as the body guards were about to take a step. yu takes out a jade scroll and says " yah take another step I dare you" holding the scroll for all to see. the body guards hesitate, since the talent selection was so soon, there bound to be some hidding dragons mixed in and offending them would be horrible to song empire. even if they call themself an empire their family was built like a sect and was in the top 20 in the world. they had to much to fear. they quickly grabbed both of song zong and his friend and made their escape. hmpt cowards yu says.

why did you do that, you made more trouble, if they done anything I could have easily taken them. espiclaly the silk pants. I say to yu.

I did it because I hated his eyes and how they stared. yu said.

oh well, we need to get the resgition done and find somewhere to eat.

we finally found the city hall building and go up the steps.. the city hall looked more like a gothic cathedral. I wonder why. walking to the lady at front.

hello, we would like to register for the talent selection. I say with smile

name? date of birth, location of living and age? she asks.

fang nyx, idk.., month July 7th, 3rd district, and 9yrs old. I said back, she quickly jolts it down but then stares awkwardly.

how do you not know the year? are you alright in the head? she says to me.

I was never told the year. I said with a sad tone..

nobles.. lacking more common sense then ever. the lady says. it's the 2400 year of the new era. so you were born 2391 year. remember it. she growls. okay it's done next.

I walk away feeling i don't know. yu comes up.

I.. would like to ... register.

the lady looks up at yu. and thought this boy is super cute, I'm sure he will turn into a real Hotty. name, age, year, location of residency. she says with a sweet voice.

fang yu, 3rd district, April 2nd 2391, and 9yrs old. he said with his shy voice and not keeping eye contact.

aweee so cute, wait fang.. "is the person before you your sister? she asks.

yes she is, yu replies.

the lady glances over at nyx and stares at her for a few seconds. okay your all done be here in 2 months before the sun reached it's peek.. don't be late. she says to yu.

yu and I turn around to walk out, I feel daggers being stared at me but idk where form.

TIME SKIP 2 months.

nyx wake up or will be late. ming yells.

I'm up im. up replying as I feel groggy, do we really need to get up this early. the sun is just risen. I drag my sleepy body to get dressed. wearing the white robe with fang etched on a patch srurroned by flames, over the heart. mum says it's the symbol of the clan. she gave me and yu a pair. mine robe was white while his was black. she never really brings up the clan and I don't want to ask questions if it's unpleasant. making my way to the kitchen for a light breakfast before walking to the carriage to take our family of four into the first district.

when we got close we saw it as overly crowed. there were parents and children everywhere. looks like we have to get out and walk the rest of the way. lee says to us. we left the carriage and tried our best to push against the crowed. making our way slowly to the city hall. after 30mins we finally struggle and reached the first steps of the city hall. we waited for it to start.

at noon the doors blew open, everyone became silent. the city Lord song ping takes a step out and yells good morning, before we start lee welcome our guests. one by one 10 people walk out. they were represented of the top 10 c

school and sects. from right or left. the immortal sect sent a 35yr old guy who he had a hawk like stare , he wore the all white with the ying, yang symbol over his chest. 2nd was a beauty of a lady, with blonde hair and red eyes. her robe was open a bit at the top giving every male a thought of eroticness. she wore a blue robe witb the four elements in a square over the heard. she belonged to the magic association. 3rd was a young man who held a great sword on his back, giving off a fierce auroa, he was wearing black and red robe. there was a sword and shield crest over his heart. the 4th was an a guy with messy black hair but gave off the smell of herbs, he looked unkempt, there was a tree on his crest, he must be part of the alchmist I'm the trade school I think. 5th was a young lady no older them 26, she gave off am ice cold auroa, a cold princess is what most guys thought. 6th was a shorter man just under 5 feet 6 inches. he was wearing black with gold trimmings. he had a red mounting on his chest. 7th as as young man who stood up straight like a sword, his crest was two swords crossing each other. 8th was a unknown they wore a black cloak, giving off a baleful auroa. there was a blood red crest. with a skull. 9th was a gir who looked no older then 20. she had black eyes but it made you feel like your soul was leaving your body. she was wearing a black robe but with sports of what look to be stars on it. her crest look like a start night sky. 10th was a young man who in every sense of the word looked like a white knight. blonde hair and blur eyes. wearing white armour. on his chest laid what look to be like a giant Church.

city lord ping. greats you all and welcomes you to this city. he cupped his face and bowed. he then turns and faces us. I declare this talent selcrion. open. with a wave of his hand he summons 12 crystal balls to appear out of thin air. and 6 pillars. then sends them inside. the 10 reps also walk inside.

youngsters I beseech you walk up here and enter the hall. and for parents don't worry, with a wave of his hand again, a projection mirror shows up. you can watch on this. " he smiles and walks in.

yu and I turn to our parents who gestures us to go o. ahead, we then give them a quick hug before walking up the stairs and in.
