"This compound is really big," Xin said, walking into the compound with Wei.
"Haha, looks like we got into the same class."
"Yeah, that's right."
*Now I've gotten the academy, what next?*
"Improve man, improve! Train rigorously and be the best in this academy. Get more connections and have a pretty nice life."
"By the way, your reward for getting in without any problem."
"DRAGON'S BREATH ELIXIR ×5- IT INCREASES ONE'S STRENGTH RAPIDLY. PHOENIX TEARS ×2- HEALS USER EMOTIONALLY AND BRINGS ABOUT RENEWAL SENT TO INVENTORY"
*Whoa, these things sound great.*
"Of course! All the stuff I give is great!"
*Yeah, yeah.*
*This academy is really large, but what I need to do now is study. It might help make my life less stressful.*
"That's right! Study and be better!"
"Ah... I miss LuoLuo." He said.
"Fuck! Study!"
"Sorry, sorry. Haha."
"Hey." Someone called, smiling at him.
"Hmm?"
"Can I sit beside you?" She asked.
*Oh my God, she's gorgeous!*
"Please, you can." He said, flipping through pages.
"I'm Huang Juan. You must be new here." She said.
"Oh, yeah. Lin Xin." He said.
"This is my second year here."
"Okay."
"What are you studying?"
"Martial skills."
"Okay..."
*Why the hell's she trying to speak with me?!*
"Don't look at another woman with evil thoughts."
*Of course I won't! She might be gorgeous, but LuoLuo is more gorgeous.* He thought, clenching his fist.
"Well that's all good."
"Ha... finally out. That manual is so big." Xin said, yawning and stretching.
"You just read for a day, and you're already tired?"
"Oh, here comes a mission"
"Mission? God, I wanted to have a good rest."
"MISSION: HELPING A FRIEND. REWARD: 1000 POINTS AND A FREE DRAW."
*A friend? What friend?*
"Your friend isn't here this time around. I'll make you remember who's your elder today." Jun said as some guys hit Wei.
"Argh! Argh! Brother Jun, please let me go!"
"Shut it!" One of the guys hitting him said.
"You were so smug and full of yourself before. Why acting scared all of a sudden?"
"You have to be taught to respect me in the future."
"Use enough strength to strike him. Didn't you eat this morning?!" Jun asked.
"Sorry, young master Wang!"
"Argh!!"
"Wei!" Xin shouted, running towards him.
"X-Xin..."
*Don't look at me, I look so pathetic right now." Wei thought, looking away.
"You bastards!" Xin shouted.
"Lin Xin, right? You better stay away from the problem of the Wang family." Jun said, walking towards him.
"..."
"Hehe, that's more like it. Stand like the pathetic loser you are and don't try to interfere in our business." Jun said, patting Xin on his back.
"Tsk."
Xin grabbed Jun at both sides of his temple and rushed towards a wall with him still in his hand before smashing his head into a wall.
"Y-young master Wang!!" They shouted, running towards Jun, who had already blacked out.
"Wei!" Xin shouted, running towards Wei and untying him.
"Xin," Wei called.
"You bastard, don't blame us for being ruthless!!"
"Shut up!" Xin shouted, slapping the guy away.
"Haha, can you stop slapping people?"
*Just one slap sent him flying.* One of the guys thought.
"Guys! Let's attack him together!" He shouted as they all ran towards him.
*I have a feeling something like this happened just recently.* Xin thought.
"Eight trigrams palm strike!" He shouted.
"Argh!"
"Argh!"
"Urgh!"
*Lin Xin... isn't he just in the Qi gathering stage? How does he know how to use the first stage of the Eight trigrams palm strike? That's something for the foundation-building stage!* Wei thought, trying to stand.
"Wei, you're injured. I'll help you to your room." Xin said as Wei nodded.
"Thanks, bro."
"Haha, it's nothing."
"MISSION COMPLETED. 1000 POINTS ADDED, BALANCE: 2000 POINTS. FREE DRAW AVAILABLE"
"HOST HAS GOTTEN TO LEVEL 61. ATTRIBUTES INCREASED. STRENGTH +1, AGILITY +1, LUCK +3"
*Luck? Really?*
"Yeah, your luck is currently 81"
*Whoa, for real?!*
"Yeah, you were lucky enough to meet me."
"Urgh...🙁."
"You..."
"My room's that way," Wei said as Xin nodded.
"I've broken through!" Xin said, sitting on the roof of his assigned building.
"Good, good! You're currently at the core formation stage."
"Yeah, I feel more powerful." He said, flexing his muscles.
"Now that you've broken through, why don't we try pill-making?"
"Pill making?"
"Yeah"
"I don't necessarily need it, I can just buy them in the store."
"Just so you know, I'll keep increasing the prices for the elixirs sold here. You'd be better off making yours."
"Urgh... what a pain."
"It'll help a lot. You can make a name for yourself in the medicine line."
"Ah... I'll start soon. I remember the free draw!"
"Looks like you're ready to test your luck!"
"Well, of course I am!"
"Okay, you can draw now."
"Ah, I wonder what I'll get. Maybe some spiritual weapon or something along the line."
"A book?!"
"It's a manual, a pill-making manual!"
"What the fuck, did you do this on purpose?"
"Haha!"
"It's not supposed to be that way, you cheat!"
"I didn't choose for you, I swear it. The wheel probably just wanted you to learn pill-making."
"Shit! Well, I've gotten it, so I might as well study it seriously."
"That's more like it."
"Yawn... I'm going wash myself and go to bed."
"Urgh... keep that to yourself."
"Why do you always act weird when I talk about stuff like that?"
"It should be something personal, right? I don't need to know it."
"Hmm?"
"Good night!"
"Mmn."
