Han Nian leaves a world for another, a violent desire burns in him to stand at the peak of martial arts and its world.
Teachings and values imbibed
forged him into a wreaker in the path of evil.
Nian fell into a state confusion, this old man was getting weird.
“ if I may ask martial uncle, you are optimistic about what sire?” Nian asked
“ it is every master's wish to see a person worthy and talented enough to pass his legacy to” the old master, said as he turned his back towards him.
Nian opened his eyes wide, he understood immediately, this man's thousand year knowledge was going to be passed unto him, not just that but everything he had earned all his years would be passed unto him too.
It sounded nice but it seemed like he was ripping the poor old man off he didn't want that, moreso he wanted to achieve great heights by himself and by himself alone, coach was his only master and he would not worship any one else as his master expect him.
“ Martial uncle is sure kind enough to want to pass his legacy unto me, please understand sire” Nian said with a bow and in the most respectful manner.
The old master first looked at him puzzled, Nian felt like this man was summing him up, like he was drawing up all the intelligence he had gained over the years, after what felt like forever, the old master laughed and took a long drink and looked back at him; this time with a new respect
“ to not be tempted by my legacy is unbelievable, I understand you, you have sworn discipleship to perhaps one of those twins but I tell you, your talent and the height you would reach in this life; even if both their knowledge is combined, it would not be enough to take you to the height you are meant to reach, taking my legacy would be an additional knowledge even both of them would criticize you if you do not take, moreover, I'm not passing it over to you now anyways, although my time on in this life seems short but I can still guarantee that I can live for about half a century more” the old master answered.
Nian felt like there was some truth in what he said but there was still something bothering him.
“ I can't thank you enough then sire but may I ask one more request of you sire?” Nian said
“ rest assured, your secret is safe with me boy, it's time for you to leave now”.
Nian bowed his head low, his fist and palm slammed together.
“ I can't thank you less sire”.

Nian peeled his eyes open and closed it back quickly; the harsh sunlight made him to. That old master was such a mystery. He looked around trying to get his bearing,

a hall affront, on top of it read ‘ seeded disciples’. Nian a little surprised, things had turned out to be better than just good.
As he entered, he caught the spotlight, everyone eyes affixed on him, he could read their expectations. Surprise and disbelief. He could guess why, his cultivation base was low, qi gathering realm lv 4.
a seeded disciple, how come?, the weakest of this bunch; about twenty of them was qi gathering realm lv 6, it was infact normal if they were surprised but as for disbelief; they should have known better that nothing was impossible in this world.
“ and what do we have here?” one said as he came closer to Nian.
“ a qi gathering realm lv 4 seeded disciple of soaring cloud pavilion” another answered.
“ the soaring cloud pavilion never seem to stop impressing me” another said from the back.
Bullies, he had saved a couple of kids from them in his previous world but to think he would be a victim In this world, he hit his temple with his palm and sighed.
“ seems like he has some good stuff on his though” the first one said as he eyed his space ring with lust in his eyes.
“ what are we waiting for then, let's show him the ways of the world” the one from the back answered.
As the first one lunged forward for his hand, Nian stood still, he was sorry for them, so what if they were of higher realm than them, he had battle experience than them, more speed and common sense than them. As he lunged forward, Nian had found couples of weak points with which he would be knocked out in one blow or two but he discussed to wait until last second - until he was completely off guard.
Some thing caught his eye from the side, he saw it - a stone, it came towards his hand or perhaps not, with his eyes he measured and was relieved it was the latter. the boy's hand came closer to his, an inch away, the role of the stone them came to action, it hit the boy's hand and he immediately cried out in pain and held his hands, he eyes reddened.
“ how dare you ....” words struck in his throat as he turned towards the thrower, his face lit up in recognition as he saw who it was. A peak qi gathering realm expert.
“ the boy shall not be bullied” the person yawned, he lied down on a long wooden bench.
“ yes senior” he said and bowed towards him.
The 'senior' waved his hand.
“ tsk, you wouldn't get away next time” the boy said and went off, ashamed and angry.
Nian remained silent and calm but he laughed inside, he looked over at the expressionless senior,

he indeed looked expressionless on the outside and to them but not to him, Nian was more of an expert than that, he could see the expression hidden behind the facadé, it was one of respect and admiration. What was he respecting and admiring?, Nian could guess.
This senior was admiring him, yes him because he was the weakest among them, that he could be a seeded disciple despite his low cultivation base. Thank goodness at least one person was still reasonable.
“ are you going to stand there all day, aren't you going to come sit, even if you aren't at least don't block the light coming from there” The 'senior' said, jolting Nian from his thoughts.
Nain understood such an act very well, he was trying to act like he cared less, it was a good one actually, a few of those fools would fear and respect him even more.
