Legend of the Flute Swordsman

The Day Before the Competition

Morning in front of Xiang Ping Hall

“Announcement!” shouts Shi Ming.

“On behalf of His Majesty Li Yi Cheng, today I, Shi Ming, as a royal advisor would like to announce a contest. Our kingdom will be at war with the Southern Kingdom. The competition this time was held with the aim of finding someone capable of representing the Northern Kingdom leading the war. That person must be a man, but not necessarily a man who is from the Kingdom. Tomorrow morning at 6, the competition will take place in front of the main hall of the kingdom. If the man was able to represent the Northern Kingdom and win the war, His Majesty would definitely give a lot of awards and hand over his only Princess, Princess Li Xing Mi as Wife, to be the only Princess,” Shi Ming said as he read the edict from the Emperor written on a scroll.

“Wah, His Majesty even wants to hand over the Princess as my Wife!” exclaimed Prince Wang Su enthusiastically.

“You're too confident! How could the Princess possibly be yours? She's mine!” sahut Prince Zhi Long firmly.

“Everything, prepare yourself for the competition tomorrow morning. The Princess deserves only to be the Wife of a Prince like me. So, you all don't need to fight over it right now. Let's prove it tomorrow morning,” Wang Jue said with a cynical smile.

“Truly arrogant! Not that the Princess would be his just because he was a Prince who once led a war!” gerutu Prince Zhi Long.

“Although he was able to lead the war, Princess Li Xing Mi was no match for him either. He is old and his face is already wrinkled,” Prince Wang Su said with a smile.

“It's true. Therefore, we must prove that he does not deserve to win in the competition tomorrow morning,” said Governor Dong Lu.

The afternoon in front of Xiang Ping Hall

The announcement that had been delivered earlier this morning by Shi Ming was taped onto the notice board that was in front of the Xiang Ping Hall. All conditions until the prize is written on the announcement.

“Yang Fei, do you want to try to enter the competition?” ask Hua Xiang.

“I?” yang Fei was confused. All three of her friends had martial arts that were more proficient than her, but why did Hua Xiang instead offer her to enter this competition?

“Yes, you try it. Who knew you could win the competition,” Hua Xiang replied.

"That's right. You have fulfilled all the conditions listed. You can follow the competition," Xiao Feng added.

“But, I...” said Yang Fei hesitated.

“I have never entered any competition. How can I lead a war between two kingdoms?” yang Fei.

“It's okay, you don't have to be afraid. You have the Hei Tian Flute in your hand. Hei Tian flute is an ancient weapon used by the God of War in ancient times,” Xiao Feng said.

“What did you say? This flute is a weapon that was once used by the God of War?” yang Fei asked in surprise.

“Of course, I've read it from books that write about ancient weapons.” Xiao Feng replied confidently.

“Yang Fei, if you want to try it, I will accompany you to practice tonight,” Guo Lin Xu said.

“Good, I'll give it a try,” Yang Fei said.

...****************...

The Liao You Forest that was around the kingdom was very quiet at night. Therefore, Yang Fei and Guo Lin Xu chose to train within this forest.

“Actur breath. Focus your mind. Do it with all your heart. Concentrate all the energy in to the chest and remove it!” yang Fei shouted as he straightened his right hand forward and his left hand held the right hand elbow to let out the deep energy that was on his body.

”You have mastered the inner power within your body. That's good.” Guo Lin Xu was happy to see Yang Fei's training progressing rapidly lately.

“I just need to try playing this flute by exerting my inner strength into the melody I am about to play,” Yang Fei said as she took out the Hei Tian Flute from her robe. He began to play several notes until it became a beautiful melody. However, even though the melody produced by Yang Fei's flute game was beautiful, the melody was able to make many leaves on the surrounding trees fall.

“Then, try,” says Guo Lin Xu.

“Successful!” yang Fei shouted excitedly.

“See, there are many shooting stars tonight. In this world, ordinary humans believe that if we make a wish to a shooting star then every request will be granted,” Guo Lin Xu said. He closed his eyes and put his hands together in front of his chest to make a wish.

“Yang Fei, make a wish,” said Guo Lin Xu after he had finished making his request.

“Ok,” says Yang Fei. He did as Guo Lin Xu did and started making some pleas.

“What request did you make?” yang Fei asked curiously.

“It's confidential. How're you? What's your request?” guo Lin Xu.

“I hope tomorrow I can win the competition. Then, I hope that I can always be together with you, Xiao Feng, and Hua Xiang. I also hope to find my brother soon. Lastly, I pray that Master is always healthy and happy,” Yang Fei replied with a happy smile.

“You are so kind as to make a wish for others as well,” replied Guo Lin Xu with his surprised face.

“The competition is tomorrow morning, go to your room and rest now,”, added Guo Lin Xu.

“Ok. Lin Xu, you should also rest well.” Yang Fei reminded Guo Lin Xu while looking at the two eyes of the girl who was dark brown.

“Pasti.” Guo Lin Xu smiled and turned his body because his room was in the opposite direction to Yang Fei's room.

“Thank you for tonight,” Yang Fei said with a smile.

“No problem,” says Guo Lin Xu. He walked and left the place. So did Yang Fei who went straight back to her room.
