Soaring Dragon Continent, Sky Serpent School

Qiu Zhen followed an elder that escorted them further into the school to get their identification card, school robes, and to get settled into their living arrangements. The outer disciples all go an identification card that was white, indicating which group they belonged to. Identification cards are used for everything in the school, you use them when you need to go to the cultivation room, martial skill building, weapons tower, and even to get your monthly pills.

The cultivation room is a place where disciples can go to enhance their cultivation speed. It is a huge tower that has twenty-five floors, and the further you go down, the better the effects. On each floor is a room, which has an abundance of qi flowing in it, disciples can get a room and use it to help absorb qi faster. On the upper floors the qi is lesser, however the deeper you go down, the more qi there is.

Outer disciples can only have access to floor twenty-five - fifteen, floor fifteen is where the most conflicts happen. If you aren’t strong enough to get a room, then don’t bother going that far, because the amount of people that are looking to get a room on that floor are hundreds, if not thousands. Inner disciples have access to floors fourteen-six, while core disciples can go from floors five through one. On the lowest floor which is basically the ground level, a pool of qi is located there, if you are to soak in it, it would increase your qi even faster, but only the top three core disciples are allowed on floor one.

As for the martial skill building, when Qiu Zhen went by there, the building had a total of five floors. Each floor contained a different rank of martial skills, and the higher the floor you go up, the better the skills there are. Outer disciples are only allowed to browse the first floor and second floor, while inner disciples can go to floor three. Core disciples have access to the fourth floor, while only the top three core disciples and elders are able to go to the fifth floor.

As for the weapons tower, it is just as it is named, it is a tower that houses weapons. The weapons aren’t free, they cost money or school credits. If you turn in a demon core to the school, you are able to exchange it for school credits. With school credits you are able to buy weapons of different grades, but each weapon cost a fortune. The only weapons that most outer disciples can buy are mortal weapons, while the weapons of higher grade are at least five times the price of a mortal weapon.

After leaving the group of outer disciples, Qiu Zhen followed the elder further into the school towards the place where inner disciples are located. The population of outer disciples were close to fifteen thousand, and once you reached the place where inner disciples are, it is numbered to around five thousand. Qiu Zhen was getting stares, and envious looks as he passed by. The people who were giving him envious looks were those who worked hard in order to be accepted as a inner disciple, because they knew the only reason he was coming here was because of the exam.

Qiu Zhen placed first on the exam, so he was promoted to an inner disciple, but his ranking was at the bottom. Some of the inner disciples started whispering to each other, while others looked at Qiu Zhen with greed in their eyes. The prize for winning first place was not only a promotion, but a grade six cultivation pill. Many inner disciples wanted this pill, and knowing that Qiu Zhen was at a lower cultivation than them, of course they thought it would be easy to get.

“So that’s the guy who won the competition huh, a mere ninth Qi Realization cultivator. Seems like the people who entered this year are trash.”

“Haha, brother Mo Lin, no one is better than you, if you ask me everyone below the core disciples are trash.”

“Hmph! Look at him, thinking he’s the best, and the look in his eye’s are irritating me. I’ll teach him the strength of real inner disciples!”

As he was passing by, Qiu Zhen could hear the gossip and talk of all the inner disciples. It seemed to him as if these people were all bark and no bite, they could talk about him all they want, but none of them ever did anything to him, yet. The elder lead Qiu Zhen to get his identification card, which was black.

“Come, let me take you to your living arrangements.”

If you encounter this tale on Amazon, note that it's taken without the author's consent. Report it.

“Ah, elder....ugh what is your name?”

The elder glanced at Qiu Zhen, but didn’t say anything. Qiu Zhen was only an inner disciple, who would spend endless years trying to reach to rank of core disciple, this elder couldn’t bother giving his name to every disciple. The elder just continued to walk showing Qiu Zhen to his living arrangements.

“Many thanks elder, tell Master Fang Wei disciple Qiu Zhen has been placed well.”

The elder had a slight change in his expression, but before Qiu Zhen could react to it, his body flashed and he was gone. Qiu Zhen couldn’t help but sigh, he thought that by saying his master was Fang Wei, it would at least give him enough face to get the elder's name.

The house that Qiu Zhen was going to stay in was much better than that of the outer disciples, it was a wooden house, with two windows. The surrounding area didn’t have any other houses around, so he wouldn’t have to worry about people causing trouble. The school did have a rule that stated no other disciple is allowed to enter another disciples room without permission.

The houses that the outer disciples were staying in, were bunched together and they were made of stone, the entire space was around 20 meters, while Qiu Zhen’s place was 50 meters.

Qiu Zhen walked into the house, which only had a bed, while it housed nothing else. He placed his other clothing in a corner, and sat down to start cultivating. Knock! Knock! Bang! Suddenly someone knocked on his door a few times, before they finally decided to kick it open.

Opening his one eye to see who it was that was disturbing him, he found that it was three men who seemed to be in their early twenties. One man walked forward and stared down at Qiu Zhen, he punched a hole in the wall to show off his strength. “Hand over the grade six cultivation pill, and anything else you have of value, and maybe i’ll let you be my lacky.”

Qiu Zhen closed his eye back and calmly said, “You barge into someone else's room, only to ask for a pill and a lacky. You break my wall, which a five year old could have broken to show off your strength, and you expect me to comply with you. Is that right?”

Seeing as to how Qiu Zhen was trying to make fun of him, the man started to get angry. “Arrogant piece of shit, you win a fucking exam with the strength in the qi realm, yet you dare talk shit with me! All the trash you faced probably was at the sixth qi realm, making it easy for you, but let me tell you that doesn’t fly here. You are lucky I got to you first, instead of the other guys, because if you follow me you won’t get bullied.”

“However, seeing as you give me no face, I change my mind, i’m going to beat you, then make you lick my feet, and beg for me to make you my lackey.”

“Ugh… I haven’t even been here a day yet, and someone already wants to challenge me.” Qiu Zhen thought, he opened his eyes and slowly got up from his meditating position. Waving his hand at the door, he said, “Shoo, shoo, i’m in a nice mood so i’ll let you go.”

The man behind the other guy walked forward. “Boss, let me handle him, i’ll teach this trash who's the boss around here.” The guy threw a punch at Qiu Zhen, only to hit air. Qiu Zhen appeared behind the man, grabbed him by his grey robes and tossed him out the room. Boom! Once the guy was out the room, Qiu Zhen’s body flashed and he appeared in the air above the guy, only to come crashing down on his back.

“See, this is why I wanted you guys to leave. Now, I won’t let you go back unharmed, you should realize those who you should respect, and those you shouldn’t. Seeing something does not mean you should always believe it.”

The man who was the boss of the group walked out the room, and glared angrily. “Fucking trash! He was only at the third Dao Realm, and you caught him off guard otherwise you would have been dead if he touched you.”

Qiu Zhen started shaking his head. “Stupid people, only believe things they think are right. Come, let this daddy teach you a lesson.”
