Yao Chen, Hong Tianya, and Ming Feiyu along with unnamed NPCs are now in front of a city, this city is the link between 30+ more villages that were protected by the Heavenly Wind Empire. This is also where they exchange goods with commercials booming from within.

Heavenly Wind Empire is an Empire that existed 500 years ago in the unnamed world they are in. Martial arts thrive, and heroes and villains are born from time to time. It is said that the Heavenly Wind Empire had been built by a Transcendental Human that is neither an Immortal nor a Beast, he was a human that perfected his Martial Arts.

There was also a Beast that brought down chaos in the world. They have strong bodies that could tear upon a Human-like paper and are the enemy of the Martial Artist.

Sadly, 12 years ago, the parents of Ming Feiyu needed to sacrifice themselves to make time for the army to arrive. Even a low-level beast can be killed by the elderly of that village but a mutated beast arrives that disrupts that order.

Because of his parent's sacrifice, Ming Feiyu had been awarded 1000 gold coins from the Empire, enough for his great-grandchildren to live in luxury. He was also known as Heroes' Child

He never uses them because he was given enough food by the villagers. In his previous life, he lived his life humbly, saving his money until his retirement. If he cannot become an Immortal in this world or if he has no chance of advancing, he will come down to become mortal again and spend his lifespan doing what he wanted.

As long as he became a Cultivator, he could do anything he wanted. If he cannot, he will live his life all he wants because Money and Strength solved everything.

The trio had been in the spotlight because they are famous for beating another villager’s children. They are well-liked and respected because of their attitude. Not servile nor arrogant.

“Master Trio, please go on.” A guard said as he looked at them with reverence. One of them is the child of a hero that uses their might to kill that mutated beast. The two are talented children who may be accepted in a prestigious sect.

They all nodded with wondering kids at their backs. There are 50 or so children in the back, proof that their village is well off.

“The trio is here. Hello Brothers and Sister.” A young man said with a shining suit. His eyes are of respect to the three while also pride that can make anyone submit to him. He bowed his head to the three. The guards who accompanied him didn’t mind because even if they stopped the Prince, he would only look at them with a terrifying gaze.

“Prince Chu Hao, hello.” The three or rather all of the children bowed their heads because this is a prince of the Heavenly Wind Empire.

The Empire has hundreds of domains under its name. With millions of troops at their beck and call but they cannot compare to the Immortals that can flip the Empire if they somehow angered them.

“Shall we move as we are causing too much disturbance here?” Chu Hao invited them as they all talk to themselves or rather only the trio. He was the youngest child of the Emperor and he had the chance of attaining the Immortal Path because of a divination in his birth.

The young masters who were beaten by the three saw this scene and backed off. They wanted to humiliate them, especially Hong Tianya who broke their bones, and Yao Chen who beat them without showing any emotions.

”What is your level, Prince Chu Hao?” Ming Feiyu suddenly asked as the two looked at him with curiosity. Their friendship may not be at the level of the trio but they regarded the Prince as one of their own.

He was not arrogant, he showed respect to commoners and even peasants. He has the guts to come down in his small Heaven and interact with those in hell. If he didn’t become a cultivator. He would surely become the Emperor.

His siblings wished he would become a Cultivator though for those apparent reasons.

“With the medicines and martial arts His Majesty acquired, I only go up to Soldier level sadly. How about the three of you.” Chu Hao said as he looked embarrassed. Soldier level at the age of 16 is already considered genius but to these three, it was considered garbage and not worth mentioning at all.

He didn't know about their level but he surely felt they were stronger than he was.

In this Mortal World, Martial Arts are divided into Student, Soldier Apprentice, Soldier, Warrior, and Grand Warrior. There is a talk about a transcendental being capable of overthrowing an Empire with only his presence but that is a hearsay.

Did you know this text is from a different site? Read the official version to support the creator.

Only Chu Hao knows that Transcendental Being is true and he was actually an Ancestor who begged an Immortal to teach him.

Martial Arts are those they practice to become stronger. Not as potent as the one that Immortals are using but they become stronger and become famous through it.

“Congratulations, Prince Chu Hao. We are ashamed that we three are only at the Warrior level.” Hong Tianya praises but hidden deep within is pride and haughtiness that they defeated someone with pure effort.

They are not even using Medicine nor do they use a higher level of Martial Arts but they have defeated someone who did use them. That haughtiness becomes gone in an instant as becoming arrogant with oneself is a downfall.

"I am now at Upper Rank, I don’t know the two.” She said as Chu Hao only shook his head at the incredulity. If she said she was in the Upper Rank, the other two would already be in that state. He knows they are rivals that would compete with each other no matter what it takes.

There are also rankings at a Level. An Upper-Rank Warrior can become a Commander in the absence of a Grand Warrior which is an impossibility considering their age.

Chu Hao has known them since he was 10 but they are monsters and he was only a genius so comparing him to them is meaningless. The other children just cheered up which surprised the onlookers.

“Upper Rank.” Yao Chen replied.

“Upper Rank.” Ming Feiyu replied.

“You three are truly monsters. You would surely pass the Immortal test.” Chu Hao only nodded absentmindedly.

“The Empire produces an Immortal, is it, not Prince Chu Hao? The Empire is surely gifted with luck.” Ming Feiyu said as he looked at him with a questioning gaze.

“Yes, my Uncle is the recent Immortal of our family but in this whole empire, only 200 or so have truly become an Immortal.” Chu Hao said as he stopped talking. They also stopped their talk as they all felt more nervous talking about Immortal there or Immortal.

Tens of millions of people and only 200 become Immortals. Totally a low ratio for the Heavenly Wind. The Immortal they are talking about is someone that was accepted by the True Immortals, his uncle was gone for at least 40 years, and never heard any talk about it.

They all stopped at an Academy with a signboard of ‘Cleansing Jade Sect, recruitment today.’

This was the embassy of Immortals who would come often here. This is also a sacred place for Mortals, the reason why it was large but unadorned. Only a simple garden and a statue of a guy with a piercing look.

They can see his face but they would always forget about it. This was the founder of the Jade Cleansing who became a God after billions of years, a long time even for Immortals.

The group had seen a set of 5 people with a gaze more than what they could handle. They had bowed their heads in response. Only a handful of people can gaze at them. A dozen to be exact.

They have retracted their aura because if not, they are forced to kneel down. 9 of them will be forced to bow their heads.

“Elder Sister, we have good seeds this year.” A young man nodded, his blue robe flowing in the air. He has the sword on his waist and his aura is carefree as one can be.

The Elder Sister only nodded. She has an ethereal aura and beauty. Life converges around her as any plants will have a boost on her presence.

The young man scanned the group but when he especially saw the trio, he had an indescribable expression. He only laughed and nodded at them. ‘Seems the Sword Mountain have another junior, good.’ He thought

The trio only nodded in response with expectations upon expectations dawning upon them. They cannot help but grin like an idiot.

Even though Ming Feiyu knew that Immortals are only Cultivators with finite lifespans, he followed the script often and only guided the other two into steps that would neither break their independence nor would it affect their life as a whole.

He told them about Perseverance so their hearts are ready for any challenges. He told them they are talentless beings in the grand scheme of things to make sure they have the vision and tell them to take a breath if it becomes harder. The rest is up to them. To become unparalleled is their own choice.

He finds the pleasure to become powerful and unparalleled but not renowned throughout the world. A reputation is a mere shadow of the truth. If his cultivation were to be lost and become useless… then so be it.

“We will start the test. Bone Age, Spiritual Root Attribute and Comprehension. You need to pass the three before you can join us in Cleansing Jade.” An ethereal voice of a woman said. It was of a sister looking at her junior.

“Begin." She added as thousands of children had lined up to be tested. The Elder Sister and the Young Swordsman all saw the happenings and they will see who would cheat in this round.

The trio had been graced to be in the first lane. No one would offend the Golden Trio when they have the chance to become an Immortal in the future. Even the higher ranking nobles and young masters played it carefully when they saw the Prince also on the back, which means the trio is still stronger than the prince.

They cannot beat the Prince and so they cannot become arrogant in front of those three. The three never humbled themselves as they all unanimously became the first, second, and third.

Ming Feiyu touched a mini skeleton of a man with a large forehead. Its whole body glowed with gray light and the light converged in its forehead with 14 on its head.

Chu Hao can only shake his head because he was 16 and he was only at Soldier level while Ming Feiyu who is fourteenth of age can command an army of his own.

Hong Tianya became the next as she also touched the skeleton and it showed her age of also 14.

Yao Chen is also the same at 14 years of age.

Bone Age is the age with bone maturity. Meaning, their Bone Age is also their normal age. It was easy to calculate because the skeleton compared their bones to the bones that were recorded in the skeleton. Although it cannot measure if some old ancestor had transmigrated in the body of a junior, only maturity.

The thought of everyone who was seeing this kind of scene is ‘Did your parents decide the date and time when you three will be making it?'

The young man who was seeing this scene when the people were looking at the trio with a questioning gaze only smiled and mumbled “Interesting.”

The young woman opened her eyes, she looked at the trio and murmured, "You three are here."
