NOT EDITED
...
Elder Han received a message from one of the leaders of the sect leader, the message was clear, he should take care of Zemin Yan until the leader of the sect decided whether or not that child would be a pillar within the sect.
Elder Han sighed and looked at Zemin Yan who was holding a small white dog in his arms, his brown eyes seemed to shine with purity and his not very handsome face looked a little rosier as if he were shy.
Zemin Yan was looking around the large silver-colored tent - obviously had some spells of magical formation - which was the tent where the new disciples were gathered after the great test of the Celestial Sword sect. There were about 20 people, 5 children the age of Zemin Yan, 10 teenagers from 11 to 15 years old and 5 young adults from 16 years to 20 years.
The children who took the first test together with Zemin Yan had not finished the other tests, but it was surprising that hundreds of people took the test but only 20 people were accepted so far.
Of course, there was still another tent that was receiving people under recommendations, but Zemin Yan did not know that there were also new disciples in those tents. However, this was not important, as there were now many eyes on his little body.
Zemin Yan looked at all the people for some time, and taking a deep breath he entered the black tent, inside the new disciples, there was a disciple of the Kingdom of the Foundation, who was registering the names of these new disciples.
"Zemin Yan," said Zemin Yan in a clear voice, there was no fear or timidity in his voice.
"Right. This is your animal-contract? "Asked the foundation's disciple with a little sarcasm as he looked at the little white dog in the arms of the 10-year-old.
This disciple of the kingdom of the foundation acted thus by seeing the simple clothes that Zemin Yan was using, especially, compared to the other new disciples who had luxurious clothes.
It was common knowledge that if the person did not have superb talent and did not have strong family support, that person would only be a mediocre person within the sect. Of course, this disciple of the kingdom of the foundation is one of those mediocre people who needs to flatter those who have the power and the money to survive within the sect.
So he had to make a show for these new disciples who had some decent family background to try and get a "sponsor."
Yes, this type of hateful disciple who does not follow from the heart the way of the sword exists, for in a great organization there will always be corrupt, greedy, useless and flattering.
Zemin Yan just shook his head confirming, ignoring the mockery of the disciple's gaze from the Foundation Kingdom.
Elder Han observed everything, just sighed and prayed for the little disciple of the Kingdom of the Foundation who was provoking a tiger.
"If he is like his father ... Who knows this foolish disciple did not suffer much, but if he is like his mother ... I should speak to the administrator of the inner disciples ... These disciples are getting more brazen" thought Elder Han with some concern.
It was known that a person who acted like a pig, when it turns out to be a tiger things will not go well for their bullies!
However, Elder Han would not interfere with Zemin Yan's actions, he would just keep a watchful eye, so the boy would not get hurt too much.
"Tsk! That unashamed guy, besides making me loyal to him, still leaves me his son to care for! "Thought Elder Han mourning his fate of being swindled by a pig and then realizing it was a fierce tiger!
Zemin Yan after checking the data with this disciple of the kingdom of the foundation, he went to sit in a more secluded location, along with Sying who was in his form of a white and fluffy dog.
Sying was still asleep since, as he stepped into the other dimension to test the small dog was sleeping.
They sat on a wooden chair that was padded and very comfortable, in fact, everything inside this tent was very luxurious, there were several tables and chairs available, plus there was plenty of food, teas, refreshments and wine for everyone.
Of course, in the silver tent, there was a layer that separated this outer room from the inner room, it would be in the inner room that the disciples who passed the test should go to sleep before leaving for the Celestial Sword sect.
Zemin Yan did not know this, but soon he would learn that there were even more people who passed the test, but these people were saying farewell to their relatives and friends, since the first two years the disciples were to remain within the Celestial Sword without to be able to contact the outside world, with the exception of team missions given by the sect.
"Elder Han noticed that Sying is a sacred beast?" Zemin Yan thought as he sat in that secluded spot, he looked at Elder Han, who was already leaving the tent.
As if Elder Han Yie was feeling the child's gaze on his body, he looked directly into the clear brown eyes of Zemin Yan and smiled, that kind of honest and benevolent smile that sent shivers down the body of Zemin Yan.
"He knows!" Thought Zemin Yan, still staring at Elder Han's back as he moved away from the silver tent. Zemin Yan lightly clasped the little cub in his arms but did not wake the creature.
No one thought it was strange, they just thought Zemin Yan was scared and trusted only the Elder Han. As Zemin Yan is a small child, no one thought it odd to trust a powerful cultivator who looked more like a gentleman.
Of course, the only person who did not think of this was the disciple of the kingdom of the foundation, who was already sweating cold and had a heart full of regret, for it was known that Elder Han was a serious person and did not have a good mood, of this Elder, it is already possible to know that this Zemin Yan must be an important figure.
Obviously, this was a misunderstanding on all sides, Elder Han just smiled at Zemin Yan to show this kid that he was still the chief pig of this whole place and that young Yan should not overdo much of his acting.
In short, everyone understood different things from the attitude of Elder Han and Zemin Yan, which spared young Yan to have to deal so early with bullying.
"Hello, I'm Wen Jie," a hoarse, cheerful voice sounded next to Zemin Yan, who for a moment was startled by the person sitting next to him.
At first glance Zemin Yan noticed the scar on the face of this person, who was very red and stood out on the face of this young man, then he noticed the messy brown hair burnt by the sun, thus having some reddish strands of hair that were stuck with a white ribbon in a messy ponytail.
His eyes were big and honest, his lips were a little protruding and wide, at that moment smiling gave him a fierce look and his nose straight and bulky made him look like a big ferocious wolf.
Zemin Yan after looking for a few seconds at this young man was a bit surprised because he discovered that this was the son of Mrs. Wen, that village woman shameless who always chased him and spoke ill of everyone in the village!
He had never seen Wen Jie, since this early teenager had gone out to hunt with the hunters in the village, leaving in the morning and returning from midday and out again in the afternoon and back at night.
Wen Jie was also not a person who walked around the village, he would rather be training in the backyard or taking lessons to learn to read with the village chief.
So Zemin Yan and Wen Jie never met, so Zemin Yan did not know about Wen Jie's appearance, he could only imagine how this person looked like the conversations between Ms. Wen and the other people.
Obviously, he did not know that a mother will always treat her child as if she were a child no matter how old the child is!
Zemin Yan only discovered that this young man who greeted him is Wen Jie because of the scar on his face, which many people in the village commented on for days, because that day was for Wen Jie to die, but he survived the attack of a pack of wolves and only got an ugly scratch on his face.
"I'm Zemin Yan," Zemin Yan said, bowing a little in greeting, after emerging from his mild stupor.
So Wen Jie started talking to Zemin Yan easily and very honestly, clearly, Wen Jie is the kind of honest and sincere person who can be easily deceived by someone manipulator.
So Zemin Yan was not too worried or too guarded around Wen Jie, but he was a bit surprised because this guy does not look at all like his mother with a poison tongue!
Wen Jie found Zemin Yan pleasant to the eye and also in the conversation, at first, he just wanted to talk to someone who was not high-status to feel better, because everyone who was there had a powerful background, only Zemin Yan and he wore clothes simple.
However, the optimistic and sincere personality of Zemin Yan left him at ease and he felt he could make a friend of that person.
As Zemin Yan is still a child it was inevitable that Wen Jie began to feel like protecting this person, plus there was a strange and wonderful feeling that he could feel of Zemin Yan, it was something that made him feel at ease and generated a good impression on this 10-year-old boy.
"Little Brother Yan, have you ever been informed in which quadrant you will enter the Celestial Sword sect?" Wei Jie asked already feeling relaxed next to Zemin Yan.
"Brother Jie, have not they told me anything yet and for you?" Asked Zemin Yan, also feeling quite at ease about Wen Jie.
"Not too, so they'll tell us when they all finish the tests," Wen Jie said with a sigh. He knew he would not have good placement, but he hoped he could enter at least as an inner disciple of the terrestrial quadrant.
Wen Jie had heard about the positions of the disciples of the other contestants who passed the test inside this tent. He was quite nervous, for in his ignorance he only thought that by passing the great test he would be directly a disciple of the Celestial Sword sect.
Unfortunately, things were not as easy as he imagined, Wen Jie now wondered if he had done as well in the test as he imagined.
While Wen Jie worried about his future, Zemin Yan was relaxed having a friendly conversation with this unlikely person to cross his life under normal circumstances.
However, Zemin Yan felt small arms hugging his waist and the slender body of a child on his back. A quick breath on his neck made him shiver and he wanted to fight this person who grabbed him.
"Brother Yan!" Yi Yuga's voice sounded in the room, catching the attention of all the people in the tent. Everyone looked at the scene of two children hugging each other with some annoyance at the same time as it seemed funny, as it seemed that these children were separated for years, but it was clear that also should not be doing so much time for this boy is looking so excited.
"Yuga, don't shout in my ear!" Complained Zemin Yan trying to get out of his friend's embrace, he felt a bit embarrassed to have such a scandalous friend.
"I'm just happy to pass the test and be able to see Brother Yan!" Said Yi Yuga with a silly smile, but there was a sharp look aimed at Wen Jie who had a bewildered look.
"What do you think you're doing so close to Brother Yan and calling him a little brother?" Thought Yi Yuga as he took a sharp look at Wen Jie.
Wen Jie didn't know why Yi Yuga looked at him with eyes so ferocious, he just foolishly scratched his head and looked at Zemin Yan to explain to him who this ferocious child was clinging to the clothes of his little brother Yan.
"Yuga! Don't run like that! "A teenager's voice can be heard in the tent that was starting to become agitated again, as a new batch of new disciples was entering the silver tent.
