THE XIAO'CHEN JOURNEY

5.ENROLLING

⁇ ️ THE ILUNSTRATION OF XIAO CHEN.

______

After 2 days of non-stop travel the Qian family horse carriage finally entered the crystal city, then the journey continued towards the scarlet academy located in the middle of the city.

When the horse carriage had already entered the outside of the academy. Passing through the window, Xiao Chen glanced out and found there were so many magnificent white buildings complete with dozens of children aged 12 years and over seen passing around compactly using white uniforms.

As soon as the Qian family horse carriage was seen. All the students of the scarlet academy who happened to be in the outer part of the academy, immediately swarmed the horse carriage to welcome their patriack arrival.

When Xiao Chen got off the horse carriage together with all the members of the Qian family, immediately all the academy disciples stared towards the flat-faced young man.

They all immediately whispered about Xiao Chen. From the beginning discuss what the name of the young man and where he came from.

Until a question arises in everyone's mind, about the background of Xiao Chen to the point that he was personally recruited by patriack Qian Tong.

Rather than that, everyone especially women did not care about who Xiao'Chen was and were more concerned about the handsome face he had.

Xiao Chen's cold face seemed to be indifferent to the large number of people watching him.

Seen from the window of a building, two beautiful 15-year-old women were staring at Xiao Chen.

"Look at his gaze, it really makes one's heart melt. How lucky I would be to be his partner,"

"Obviously he was a patriack recruiting student ? Surely the young man had a non-playful background, it was likely that there would be a political marriage between the Qian family and the young man,"

"What do you mean say that ?"

"It's offensive, it's just that you'd rather give up than hurt afterwards."

One of the women sighed, then the two of them walked away after the situation below became increasingly crowded and could not see Xiao Chen clearly.

While Xiao Chen was apparently walking beside Qian Tong towards the inside of the academy. After arriving inside, Xiao Chen was seen to be so small in the midst of the many grand and majestic buildings.

"The name of this place is the main altar. Every morning you have to come here to learn the basics of martial arts along with other students, then proceed to learn to write and understand the meaning of many ancient languages,"

"Does learning an ancient language have anything to do with martial arts ?"

Qian Tong felt confused while scratching his head, the times had indeed changed so that he did not really understand the usefulness of the ancient language.

"From what I know, by learning and understanding the meaning of ancient languages. You can understand many of the upper martial books, considering that they were mostly written in the ancient language."

Xiao Chen simply kept silent, then his attention was diverted to a sizable-sized billboard standing beside the altar. It had 10 names and points written, but Xiao Chen did not understand the purpose of the billboard.

The conscious Qian Tong, immediately helped Xiao Chen by explaining the usefulness of the billboard.

"The name of the board is an experience points board. Every job you do will be turned into points, the higher your points, the better the resources you get each month. Every day the names on the notice board will be replaced with 10 names that have higher points than before. Even though I know your parents well, training is training, don't expect any good from me."

Xiao Chen smiled slightly, "That's what I want, after all no one is asking for your help."

Qian Tong laughed, "You're so cold Chen'er.. Still if you need anything, let me know right away."

"Of course, listen, sir."

"In that case, I'll have someone take you to the dorm. Uncle can't take you there because there's a little business about the black crow members,"

"...."- ".Xiao Chen just kept quiet, then Qian Tong called out to a female disciple who happened to pass in front of them.

The girl stopped and stood before Qian Tong."What's up Patriack ?

"Son, this young man beside me is a new student of the scarlet academy. Can you take her for a walk ? Because I have to go now,"

The female disciple bowed, "Of course patriack, be careful on the road."

Qian Tong nodded slowly, then walked away leaving Xiao Chen both with an ordinary girl dressed in long-sleeved white.

Since she had only met Xiao Chen for the first time, the girl felt very awkward and did not know where to start.

"Uh, um.. First of all you want to see what ?"

Xiao Chen stared at the astonished girl before him."If I know where to go, I don't need to ask for your help."

"Right as well,"The girl felt even more awkward, let alone Xiao Chen having a cold and blunt nature.

"Then I will escort you to the member pavilion. Because in order to become a member of the academy, you have to register first."

Xiao Chen just cleared his throat slowly. Then he walked slowly beside the girl while paying attention to the many things that Xiao Chen felt were each foreign to him.

Noticing Xiao Chen's movements that looked like they had first seen many large and luxurious buildings, the girl next to him assumed that the young man was from a village.

The girl beside Xiao Chen glanced at him."Are you from the village ?"

Xiao Chen looked behind the girl beside him, then coldly said."Are you mocking me ?"

The girl's steps stopped, immediately she shook her head with both hands waving and a face that looked panicked.

"You're wrong, that's not what I meant. After I saw you still feel weird being in between big buildings, because I used to feel that way because I was also from a village."

"Lilian Village, it is located far south of the Han continent. Do you know ?"

"....."

The girl slightly sighed seeing Xiao Chen's reaction.

"It's only natural that you don't know the village, because it's been a long time since the village was destroyed along with all its citizens."Without feeling the girl carried away, until it looks sad.

Making Xiao Chen who was looking felt a bit of sympathy towards the girl in question."Are you okay ?"

The girl suddenly realized from her sadness, she shook her head with a smile.

"Just calm down, I'm fine. Let's continue the journey,"

"...."- ".Xiao Chen just kept silent, then they again walked over into the academy.

During his walk towards the members pavilion, Xiao Chen was able to see some foreign girls staring at the cynical girl next to him.

"It looks like those people have a problem with you,"

The girl next to Xiao Chen shook her head accompanied by a sigh."It's okay, they don't like me because I'm just a swordsman with a golden fish spirit. By the way my name is A Ling, what's your name ?"

"Xiao Chen, please,"

"Good name, then what is your cultivation spirit ?"

Xiao Chen was silent because he did not know what to do, and the pohenix inside him said that it was Xiao Chen's cultivation spirit.

"My cultivation spirit is a pohenix,"

Suddenly A Ling was startled and looked at Xiao Chen in disbelief."Really ! Then you're lucky !!"

Seeing A Ling's surprised reaction, Xiao Chen was just acting ordinary.

"Don't overestimate something, ability comes from self instead of relying on spirit cultivation. My pohenix section is still a fat chicken, who knows your fish is a dragon."

Pohenix who heard Xiao Chen refer to him as a chicken was annoyed, but it was true what Xiao Chen said. Pohenix was young, it took tens of thousands of years for him to have his true form.

While A Ling who heard Xiao Chen's remark felt a little surprised."Did you say that to comfort me ?"

Xiao Chen shook his head, as it seemed that A Ling had mistakenly thought."You're wrong, actually what I said earlier is the principle of my life. All cultivation spirits were the same, what distinguished him was the intention of the owner."

A Ling nodded, "What you said is true, because the cultivation spirit will get stronger if the owner is diligent in practicing."

"Good, it looks like you've started learning. But what I'm supposed to teach you is me,"

A Ling was immediately startled, "Pardon me, let's continue the journey."

After walking for 5 minutes, Xiao Chen and A Ling finally arrived at the member pavilion whose building resembled a 5-story pagoda.

But what makes this pagoda different from the ancient pagoda is its design that looks beautiful in white, and has a more modern characteristic of the ancient pagoda.

"I'll be waiting for you here,"

"......"Xiao Chen simply kept silent, then walked into the member pavilion.

After being inside Xiao Chen found a middle-aged man dressed in black white standing behind the table. The man called out to Xiao Chen as the young man walked towards him.

"You're a new student ?"

Xiao Chen nodded, "True sir."

"All right then. Before starting his registration, I will check your cultivation spirit first. Get your hands,"

Xiao Chen held out his hand, then the man touched Xiao Chen's pulse to look at his cultivation spirit.

Not a moment later, the man's face was immediately drenched in cold sweat as he looked at Xiao Chen with a feeling of admiration.

"The spirit of your cultivation is pohenix,"

Xiao Chen felt astonished,"Then ?"

The man was even more surprised to see Xiao Chen's calm."Then ?! You have a cultivation spirit very similar to the hero of the scarlet academy named Fu Chen,"

Xiao Chen was only silent because he was indeed Fu Chen's son. The man looked at Xiao Chen seriously.

"Listen son, there are indeed many disciples who have high-level cultivation spirits in this academy but none are as high as yours. My advice, you should look for a book that matches your cultivation spirit. Because if it's wrong, your life will be at stake because your cultivation spirit is too strong."

'Is this guy really saying ?'Inner Xiao Chen, asked his pohenix.

"Yes, it's true.to compensate for my strength, you need to do extra training and match our strength, otherwise the results will be in vain."

Xiao Chen looked at the man before him."Have you admired me enough ? Now what should I do, sir ??"

Instead of being offended by Xiao Chen's cold demeanor, the man instead grew even more amazed by the confidence the young man had. Because it is very natural that Pohenix has an arrogant and confident attitude.

"Well, you really are a jewel to this academy, son. Now please sign this contract and fill in the biodata that's there,"
