Night sky is beautiful.
The way stars shine and light up the entire night sky looks heavenly. The way many of them form into different shapes like a boar , horse and scorpion add to their mystique. The way they twinkle gives me a sense of lightness. Stars are magnificent.
''Fenger" my mother's shout disturbed my peaceful time of star gazing."
"Yes mother" I stood up and shouted back, patting my back and head to remove the dust and grass which should have stuck on me while I was laying in our garden.
"Come sit, dinner will be ready in a few minutes " my father said as he was examining a pretty looking orb - like object.
"What is that?" A proud smirk soon came on my father's face after my question. Without worry he handed me that strange orb.
"It's a new spiritual object that I created after many years of hard work. A cultivator can inject his qi into this orb and the cultivators qi will remain in it for nearly a year if it's not damaged."
"What use is it ?" As if offended by my idiotic statement he looked at me like I was a fool and straightened up and said in a manner like explaining cultivation to a donkey.
"With the help of this orb an cultivator with a unique qi can store his/her qi in it and can use it for different things for example a alchemist with a rather pure fire qi can store his/her qi and then give it their juniors so that their junior's can learn from it and further refine their qi they can even use this orb's help to even refine higher quality pills."
"Whoa that is incredible"sensing the awe in my voice and the way I was intensely looking at the orb made my father finally satisfied.
"It's a pity the most it can only hold is the qi of early golden core cultivator, not the peak. If it could do that my name would have been famous across the continent." He looked sad as he said the last part seeing my father's mood plummeting I quickly changed the subject.
"How did you make it?"seeing my genuine curiosity he perked up and said.
"First I experimented on different metals that could hold qi like the blue silver ore and azure green ore than I purchased some decades old whispering vines seeing they didn't work. I took a gamble and then purchased a few hundred year old vines, surprisingly they worked but then another problem arrived …...."
"Come on, dinner is ready " my mother's voice came from the kitchen as my father finished his story of how he made the pretty orb which can contain the qi of a golden core cultivator."
"Tomorrow the Dauntless Dragon sect's disciple will come to our city to take the young children for training to the Sect. Are you ready?" my father asks me as he goes to help my mother put the dinner on the table.
"Yes I am" I replied confidently and sat on one of the chairs.
"Of course he is ready, he has been training since he was eight years old " my mother said as she started to serve dinner on mine and my father's plate.
"Mmh it's delicious, what is it?" I asked and my father also hummed in agreement.
My mother smiled and said " It's light Bison's meat. Apparently the bison was in qi condensation phase but it was too ferocious and killed a little yak thus he was killed."
After the delicious dinner I excused myself and went back to my room as I sat on my bed and stared at the decoration in my room. The memories of my life rushed at me looking at the first sword I made at my family smithy when I was ten. It was crudely made yet it was my first creation , the painting of my family I made when I was six years old . All the little things came back one after another.
Tomorrow my life will change but tonight I will sleep like there Is no Tomorrow.
"Fenger - fenger - son - son - SHAO FENG!!!"
"whatt?"I groggily asked the one who disturbed my magnificent dream.
"Wake up the Sect examiners will come in a few hours and you have to be prepared" my mother's reasonable words finally made me give up my bed.
After eating the breakfast when I come to main Street with my parents I was shocked to see the that every shop was open and whole street was bustling with people as we walked on the city lord mansion I saw many childrens with their parents walking towards the mansion and some shops were selling talismans for good luck and many people were buying them.
After a few minutes we reached our destination and saw that childrens were standing in a straight line to city lord's mansion gate while their parents were scattered here and there.
"Go stand in line and be confident"hearing my father's I nodded and joined the line.
After half an hour the city lord's secretary came and led us to the mansion's compound where the disciples and city lord sat and the ceremony began.
First the bells were rung symbolising the new day then the city lord and the sect's disciple performed a few spells to make the atmosphere more magical.
" Let The Dauntless Dragon sect's initiation ceremony start" with a powerful voice city lord started the ceremony.
