Chapter 12: A Room of Reflection
After the confrontation with Liu and the intensity of the challenge, Denny C was led to a tranquil corner of the Bull Fight Sect. Here, his eyes fell upon a modest yet inviting room. It was to be his cultivation quarters, a space where he would dedicate himself to mastering the ways of the sect.
Elder Zhang gestured toward the room. "This will be your space, Denny. A place for reflection, growth, and inner strength."
As Denny stepped inside, he took in the serene ambiance—the soft glow of lanterns, the soothing aroma of incense, and the view of a serene courtyard beyond the window. This was where he would come to understand himself on a deeper level, where he would harness his potential.
Elder Zhang spoke, his tone encouraging. "Adjusting to this new environment might take time, but remember, it's within these walls that you'll find your true strength."
Denny nodded, gratitude in his eyes. "Thank you, Elder Zhang. I'm ready for this."
In that very room, Elder Zhang handed Denny a small bag filled with sparkling crystals. Divine crystals, a source of energy that disciples used to cultivate their abilities. Denny marveled at their ethereal beauty, knowing that each crystal contained immense potential.
"These divine crystals will be your allies in your journey," Elder Zhang explained. "Use them wisely, and they will aid you in reaching new heights."
With a bow of respect, Denny accepted the bag of crystals. "I won't squander this opportunity, Elder."
Elder Zhang's eyes held a sense of pride. "I believe you won't."
As Elder Zhang prepared to depart, Denny took a moment to gather his thoughts. This was the beginning of a new chapter, a chance to prove himself and honor the values of the Bull Fight Sect.
Elder Zhang's gaze held a glint of anticipation. "Tomorrow, Denny, we will head to the Bull Temple for the ceremony of new disciples. It's a significant event, marking your official entry into the sect's fold."
Denny's excitement grew, and he nodded eagerly. "I'm looking forward to it, Elder Zhang."
With a nod of approval, Elder Zhang took his leave, leaving Denny in his cultivation quarters. As the door closed, Denny settled onto a cushion, his heart a mix of determination and anticipation. The divine crystals lay before him, a symbol of his path forward, and the Bull Temple ceremony loomed on the horizon—a step closer to solidifying his place within the Bull Fight Sect.
