Chapter 02 - Training to be a Warrior
It's been a year, and I am 5 years old. That mean I can join warrior training and the maid that suppose to take care of me no longer watch over me, because at age of 5, most of the time spend is on training. The training time was Earlier Dawn and at dusk. The training will be perform both at this time.
As I first join the training, Introduce myself as Liu Xiao Yu in front of other kids with the same age as mine. Less than 50 childrens that age of 5 join the training. The training was consist of running around the field, swind the wooden sword for a 1000 times and then can rest. But, before we follow the regiment menu, we instead been told by instructor about the strength of warrior saint-level and 9th rank.
*Quick Not:Rank was divide to 1st to 9th Rank. and after ward, Saint-Level, Deity-Level (Divide by 3, Lower, Middle and High).*
The other childrens was intently hear the story, but I just running around the field without concern of others. After a few days consist of running around the field (500M). When the time to swing wooden sword, we was given a short wooden sword to practicce with. For kid age of 6 and above, their need to swing the sword 1000 times while we 5 years old kids will be told to swing the sword 50 times only since we are beginner.
But for me, as my previous life was a Berserker Warrior, my mind set was different from others kid. While swing the sword, my mouth will chant "Kill, Kill, Kill". I forgot how long I was swinging the sword, the chant that I use was made me lose my consciouseness yet my body was continually move swing the sword.
From earlier morning to dusk, for the first time I felt a fatigue from both of my physical body and mind fatigue. That is what happen when I regain my consciousness back while I felt my body was wobbbling up. and again this time I lost consciousness again because of my fatigue.
That night I regained my consciousness after well rested, but I think I was awake because of my hunger. When I exit my room with my stomach rumbling, I'm going to the kitchen to find something to eat. Fruit maybe. As I walk down to the kitchen, somehow I felt a presence of someone. Maybe something? Not sure, but after heard my rumbling stomach, I ignore the matter and continue toward the kitchen to find something to eat.
When I was going to the kitchen, I was stumble upon a small pitch-black stone? perhaps a crystal because the small black thingy was a round thing like an orb. I don't know why, I just pick it up and save it on my pocket. And when I was arrive at the kitchen, I start to ransake the kitchen to find someting edible to eat. Later I found a fruit and eat it. after eating about 3pcs of the fruit, I leave the kitchen and go back to my room and sleep.
***
In the morning I awake, same routine like yesterday. Only different this time was I following the entire training programs, when I done with the morning training, I was free with a lot of time until evening training. I casually walk out from the baruch city gate and leave toward the Forest called [Black Forest].
This forest was known as a Black Forest was because iinside the forest reside a large-number of magical beast with a darkness-type. Thus it got it name [Black Forest]. According to history of Yulan Continent, before the great war of the 3 Empire and Disappearance Death calamity, the forest name was different. But now, no one know why the name of the forest was change into [Black Forest].
I only visit as far as the entrance, had yet to enter the forest. Because I knew, the moment I step into the forest, my life will be gone in a matter of second. Since It was already noon after staying there and play by myself for a few hours and noon come. Return to the city, I join the dusk training and return home.

A month have passed,
Even though I kept training with the physical endurance, but somehow I can't produce or practice battle qi. I don't know why, is there something like a manual training perhaps. I was wondering how should I practice my battle qi and how to get the feel of it since I can't feel any qi at all at my dantian. I really though about to give up battle qi practice and focus more on physical training.
My knowledge and wisdom about magic can be said 'out of this world', however the matter of practice and Insight? I need to find a teacher or else, my knowledge only leave it as a mere knowledge if I didn't practice any. After another month passed, I felt a change on my body, even though I train my ohysical body with physical training such as heavy-weight and Endurance. my body still as if I've never train because of my body don't show any muscle to show the result of my physical training.
Even though my body still like that, however the training was not a waste because the strength it produce was the same after I train. So I continue to train with heavy weight lift around 15kg, for a 5 year old kid like me, it is pretty heavy. As for endurance training, it is merely running around the field (500m) and continually swing the swords until a break time or end time.
After 6 month training with the same menu over and over, The training menu seem easy to me so I drop from going to join the training field. Because I will continue to train with my own method. But before that I need some money to use so I ask my dad, Liu Xiang Yan, who currently in the reading room of his working probably.
*knock, Knock*
"Enter" a gruff voice can be heard from inside.
Thn I open the door and enter.
"Oh? Xiao Yu, it is rare for you to be here at this time? aren't you going to join the training?" ask the gruff voice which is my father Liu Xiang Yan.
"No, Father. Not anymore." I told him.
"Why? Is it too difficult?" ask him again.
I shook my head and annswer "Not difficult father, instead I felt it too easy."
"Hahahaha, too easy?" Laugh Father with a disbelief on his face.
"It is Father, that's why I want to train by myself, self training"
"I see, are you here to telling me that? or is there something else you need?" ask father this time he accept what I said earlier and with calm demeanor he ask me what is my need.
"Yes, that too, But, I need some money to spend father, for my own training." Answer me with a calm voice.
"I see, wait a minute" Father stand from his chair and move toward a Box that have a seal on it and after unseal the box, he take a single pouch and toss it to me while said "Here".
"Spend it wisely, son" said Father with a smile.
I cought the pouch and said "I will, father"
"You may leave now." said father while going back to sit on his chair and continue his paper work.
"Then, excuse me" I bow to father and left the room quietly.
