Lin Ming awoke to the smell of cooking meat. He sat up and took a look outside the tent. Sure enough, Gu Xue, and Chu Tianjian were roasting a rabbit over a fire, which was floating over Chu Tianjian's hand. They looked at him, obviously not surprised. Curious, he asked,"Is that magic?" he was replied with a nod from Gu Xue, and a entire speech from Chu Tianjian,"Obviously this is the all powerful fireball magic! It is a Tier 1 magic, but it is the one with the most attacking power of all Tier 1 spells! How do you not know about magic anyways? Everyone should know about magic. But still, look upon this mighty fireball, and feal fear!"
Lin Ming could not help but point out,"Then why are you using it to roast a rabbit?" Speachless, Chu Tianjian could only humph, while Gu Xue giggled. When the rabbit was done cooking, it was split into pieces, for everyone to share. Lin Ming could only sigh, as he got a leg, while Chu Tianjian and Gu Xue shared the rest. But that was the way of this world, the strong commanded the weak. He quickly finished his leg, and began packing up the tent, and other things, so as to leave quickly. When the pair finished eating, he was already ready to go.
They set off toward the Profound City with a full stomach (except on the case of Lin Ming :)) and walked at a brisk pace. Chu Tianjian looked town toward his map, which at some unknown point he had pulled out of his bag, and he smiled, for the first time in a while. He looked up and stated,"WE are only one hour ways from the city. Remember, once we get there, you are on your own. I will not help you get into the Profound sect, that all depends on your luck, and talent. Lin Ming sighed yet again. What a cold fellow.

They arrived at the city gates, and Lin Ming could not help but gape in shock. The gates were grand and tall, and the walls were twice the thickness of a caravan. He emotionally sighed as he mentally compared it to his former village. This was the distance between a first-rate city and a poor village, even the gaurds had iron armor of high quality. "STOP!" The guard told them,"What do you have on you?" Chu Tianjian took out a silver coin, dropped in the guard's hand nad ushered us forward.
"This is where we go our seperate ways" He said. He then flipped over a gold coin to Lin Ming and walked away. Lin Ming stared at the gold coin, and lookedd back up, but the pair were gone. He sighed and asked someone where an inn was, and was pointed toward the west side of the Profound city. The Dragon's Nest, was the first inn that Lin Ming saw. He was very skeptical, as the name sounded like a dungeon, but he went inside anyways. It was a cozy inn, with chairs, and a bar. He flipped the gold coin to the innkeeper, and asked for one night. The inn keeper immediately returned him 96 silver, as the price per night, including food, was 4 silver. Lin Ming looked in shock at the large pile of silver that was returned to him and sighed as he thought about Chu Tianjian and Gu Xue, who could casually toss away such a large sum of money. The innkeeper handed him his keys and he walked inside to his room.
He looked around and thought'This is a pretty good room!' There was a bed, a nice window, and some furniture. OH and how could i have forgotten the sign on the door that says "DAMAGES MUST BE PAYED IN FULL"Lin MIng grinned and sat crosslegged. He began cultivating, but after a while, he frowned. 'After breaking throught to the muscle strengthening second stage, I have encountered a bottleneck' He thought, not very happy, so he uncrossed his legs, and lay down onto the bed. He thought'Tomorrow i will take the test to enter the Profound Sect!' and he fell asleep
