The Pembarker of Eternity
CHAPT 21'S. Xiao Wu Jie's mood
One month has passed the prospective students with a fairly tight training. The break time is getting narrowed because every month they have to pass tests based on what they have learned.
It would not be wrong if the Twin Mountain Sect Academy was the best academy in the martial world right now that scored countless graduates with outstanding talent. Because from starting to become prospective students only, the training they undergo is very hard.
This is nothing but for the sake of finding superior seed candidates who will contribute and make the development of the kingdom and sect more significant in the future.
All prospective students showed excellent progress. However, there are only a few prospective students who appear to have more prominent abilities than others.
Especially Xiao Wu Jie and Zhang Ma who gained more appreciation from the elders for his achievements in the first stage test yesterday.
Both are believed to have extraordinary genius after demonstrating his ability during the test.
Right now in the room of the academy's chairman, there were a few elders who were seen discussing something.
"Aren't you too quick to recommend them to become core disciples now? We don't even know their ability in absorbing Qi energy yet, how could you think of breaking the rules of the academy?!" Vice Chairman Bou seemed unhappy with Yang San's proposal.
Yang San had previously taken the opportunity to recommend Xiao Wu Jie and Zhang Ma to be sure to become core disciples, as he judged the genius of the two was very worthy of it.
"Actually I agree to elder Yang's proposal. Both of them showed the incredible intelligence that we witnessed on our own at the time of the first stage test and I am very proud and excited about it. I myself did not expect after Xiao Shan turned out that my two grandchildren also had such genius" the Academy's Chairman said
The look on Vice Chairman Bou's face got worse, but he immediately covered it up because he did not want to offend the Academy's Chairman. Still he disagreed "Chairman, can't he delay this decision before the final test ends? Nor can we ignore the other possibilities."
"Hmm alright, but it seems that I don't need to worry too much about the test, however I am confident in the abilities of my two grandchildren hahaha." the laughter of the Academy's Chairman echoed.
Discussions are closed, no more issues will be discussed because of the current state of the academy, everything is going as usual.
On the other hand in the dormitory, the atmosphere of the previous test still felt very memorable because of the two prospective students who looked stunning at the time of the test. Both are now a byword among prospective students.
"Brother Wu, why do you always avoid girls who pay attention to you? isn't that fun??" Zhang Qi seemed to be tidying up his alma while rambling since earlier, while Xiao Wu Jie was focused on staring out the window as if he did not care about his words.
"Lucky enough, you're in the warm conversation of the girls who idolize you, you're handsome and smart, you're so great, where else is the opportunity for me hahaha."
Xiao Wu Jie was still at his position, not responding in the slightest to Zhang Qi's words let alone looking at him. Actually, he was in a bad mood because he again failed to try to open his first nerve Qi.
From day one at the academy, his desire to open the first nerve grew stronger but worry enveloped his mind when he always failed to try.
This time Zhang Qi was no longer excited to chat because he had spoken since then but none of the responses he received. He even more focused on his almaria while humming the ria "Ohh Love... Ohh Honey...Na na na -..."
The fear of failure made his spirit fade, as it was not until another 2 months that he would face an important test that required him to open up a second nerve Qi in order to become a core disciple in the academy.
'What if I fail???' The question continues with him from time to time.
Zhang Ma had only arrived at the dormitory after having been in the library room since. Upon entering the dormitory, his eyes immediately swept through the room and found Xiao Wu Jie was behind the window as if unperturbed by Zhang Qi's humming sound which proved that he was thinking.
"Hey brother Wu, what are you daydreaming about? and you're fat stop singing, don't you feel guilty for hurting brother Wu's ears?!"
"Enak only. It meant one, that he greatly enjoyed my beautiful voice na.na.na" Zhang Qi returned humming, yet still Xiao Wu Jie did not budge.
Zhang Ma came closer to the window so Xiao Wu Jie's face appeared from the side. His eyes were completely empty. With a swift hand embracing his shoulder "Brother, is something bothering you?"
"Sttt is free, from earlier I spoke but not in response" Zhang Qi spoke half in whisper.
"No problem, I just miss my mother and uncle that's it" Xiao Wu Jie smiled but Zhang Ma knew that it was too forced.
Zhang Ma thought if that was not the real reason, but did not intend to ask that reason.
"O my brother, aren't I and the noisy fat man your brother? let's get through this together, shouldn't we focus on forging ourselves here?"
Zhang Qi stopped his bandit "Hey what a noise! that's called melting the atmosphere, you're the only one who doesn't have a sense of humor huh"
"Silence you're fat...! can't you help me a little?!" after looking back at Xiao Wu Jie, Zhang Ma saw his smile so sincere the sign of his sadness had already diminished a little. "We were given a day's rest, why don't we just go around the academy, what do you think brother Wu?"
"Hmm okay..."
"And you're fat, we'll leave the dorm with you until we get back, just remember not to dirty it"
Zhang Qi's expression looked bad but was unable to say anything other than nodding in agreement.
Not long ago they were touring the academy, dark clouds covered the sky a sign it would soon rain.
"Brother Wu how about now we go back to the dormitory?" Zhang Ma was afraid that if it rained soon they would get wet before they could get to the dormitory.
