Iver only looks toward Alya but Didn't answer. In the next moment he looks toward the stage. " It seems the time has come, wish Ayan make here in time ."Thought to himself.
"Next Match Ayan vs iver. Two of you come to the stage" the examiner called for the next Match participants to come into the stage.
Iver slowly goes to the stage and look toward the Enter and exit place to see if ayan Shadow could be seen.
But even after the examiner called for 2nd-time ayan's could not be seen.
Iver was looking forward to today's match with ayan. Iver was curious about ayan. But it seems there is nothing but disappointment .
"He not gone make in time, or is he not gone come, dose something happens to him" iver more and more Start to worry about Ayan, like a big brother would do.
But when the examiner about to call for the last time a person from the arena loudly yall " He came".
There is many occurrence where participants cursed by the people in the arena because he/ she came late. He is a kid that's why one said anything about why he came late?.
"sorry examiner I am late, I had to go to the Wash room, that's why I am late, let us start".
At first, ayan thought not to join in the tournament but when he remembers about his parents he had to change his mind.
It wouldn't be a problem if he wasn't a kid or he didn't have any parents. But after going back home if his mother or father asks why he didn't join the tournament what his answer will be?. Will he be able to say i Didn't join because I don't want to!. He can't say that, That's why he had to join.
"Ok, two of you ready? You guys remember the rules "
Both ayan and iver nod their head to confirm the examiner question.
"then, start"
" I admit defeat " Ayan loudly announced about his defeat and start to leave the stage .
Hearing this iver widened his eyes in surprised.
' I should give this guy a chance, even if I want to become No1 there won't be a problem. But I don't think these small resources can help me. Anyway, I am feeling the boundary to my next realm. I should go and try break Through ' Ayan thought to himself.
"Ayan what are you doing, I know you are strong but how can look down on me" iver become angary. Not because ayan but because of Himself.
He is thinking that Ayan pitying him. So he can take the resources and cultivate them, then what about Ayan? How strong is he that he didn't need any resources for now?
"It's not like what your thinking, we can fight later, my body condition is not in good shape, take this chance and become strong" Ayan exclaim.
"are you sure you want to admit defeat?" the examiner ask Ayan.
"Yes". After answering the examiner. He left toward the exit. He want to go to his room and start his cultivation as soon as possible, if possible he wants to break through before going home.
Ayan comes to his room where he and all of the people came from Pura city staying. Even though he and most of the others became outer disciple they weren't given any separate room because they were not given official ceremonies.
After Ayan shut down the door he sits down in a half-lotus position.
"I can feel the boundary, but it will take two more days I think, I should try a breakthrough after going home," Ayan thought himself.
Almost 4hour later
In the arena
Two girls are facing each other. Two of the girl on the stage are about the same age.
These two girls are looking at each other with a hostile gaze. But when the atmosphere getting heavy, a girl in a white dress said an unexpected word
"I forfeit, I admit defeat"
Everyone on the arena look toward the stage in shock. Because they didn't thought that the one who admitted defeat is none other than 'alya'.
" Good job, that's how you should act, never forget you are always beneath me. Like your father was to my father and you to me, like father like daughter" The girl who was Alya's opponent look toward Alya like a bug she can always crush.
Iver runs after Alya . Iver lost his match so there is no need for him to stay here. But he couldn't stop himself from asking what was that'll about.
" Alya, Alya" he shouts two times to stop Alya. But Alya didn't stop. Alya just ignores him. He continue his walk pace with alya until they reach their destination.
They came to held to a door that leads to the room where they live. After opening the door alya didn't go inside but stood Froze in her position.
Because What she saw couldn't believe in her eyes. A thick aura covered the whole room.
"Hey, iver are you seeing what am I seeing "? Alya who didn't talk with iver from the time she left the arena asks a question with a confused face.
"Yes, I think so" .
But before iver could say anything more the think aura that was lingering around the room suddenly vanished. But a shadowy figure could be seen inside the room.
( It's becoming dark so nothing much can be seen clearly)
A chilling sensation sweep through the room , unknowingly Alya, and iver tremble slightly.
"What is this sensation?" both of them thought to themselves.
In the next moment, that figure in the room vanished in thin air. Alya rubs her eyes 2nd time to see if what she seeing is the reality.
"what are you guys doing in front of the entrance, are you guys planning to take toll from others or something? " Ayan who just came from somewhere stand right behind them.
" Ohh Ayan where you were . We see something astonishing". Alya with excitement told Ayan that she saw something.
"ok, ok, I'll hear from you guys later why are the guy's here now. Shouldn't you guys be in the arena !" Ayan looks toward Alya And iver with a questionable gaze.
"Well, I lost my match and Alya admit defeat for some reason, even though I am trying to know why, she just ignoring me?"
" omm so that's how it is, as much as I know becoming no2 or3 won't be a problem for you why did you admit defeat?". Ayan's gaze shift from iver to Alya.
"truth be told I could have won against that girl, but if wined against her my father had to suffer hardship instead of me". Alya becomes gloomy and enraged at the same time as she told her reason.
"How come your father had to suffer instead of you, do you guys have some old story ?" iver who is curious about Alya's and that girls relationship couldn't hold himself to ask this question.
"I don't think this place is appropriate to talk about that shorts of story we will talk later". Alya try to avoid question ask by ivrr
Ayan didn't say anything he just stood there and hear what iver and Alya's have to say.
"This is interesting!" Ayan thought to himself.
"so what about the rewards, you guys should go and get the reword"
"no, the sect will distribute the reword 1 months latter , and new disciple we get 1 months off, so wo can go home and enjoy some time with family, because a disciple may have to stay 2 years in the sect, after that they get permission to go home" Alya, tried to explain every detail about the sect and other stuff.
After 1 day Ayan and all of the people that come with him, leave for their home. Those who became an outer disciple can come back after 30 days so they can start their education, And Those who wasn't able to become one they are not welcomed.
Somewhere , many carriages going in same direction on the same road. On the side of the road there were no big tree but only crops and villager who were working there.
Midst of this carriages a carriage outshining the most, It is the same carriage where Alya and some other child of some important people came.
On the one side 3people sitting together on the other side 4 people sitting together.
The look on their face of this 4 people are like some bug are biting them but they couldn't do anything because a behemoth watching over the bugs.
These 3 people on the opposite of are nine other than Alya, Ayan and iver.
On the first day of this journey
At first, Alya wants ayan and iver to go with her but when Ayan Refuse Alya incest mere to go. So they couldn't refuse and had to follow alya.
At first iver start to ascending in the carriage. On thing must remember iver not wearing any expensive cloths.
Four people were taking with each other inside the carriage. But they stop Their happy chat. When they saw iver who ascends to the carriage their face twitch in disdain seeing iver.
" Wtf, where this commoner came from" one shout angrily.
