The boy in the woods

In the Scorching Sky Kingdom, near a demonic forest, a young man of the age about 10 years is practicing with his sword. He was practicing basic sword techniques but there seems to be some magical sensation into it. His sword was covered in silvery light which increases the sharpness and power of his sword. If an expert were to see this then he would be dumbfounded because this is [sword essence], which many expert sword cultivators cant produce but this little boy who is a mortal seems to produce [sword essence]. When it was evening, he finally stopped his practicing.

"Whew"

"It seems my comprehension in the path of swords again improved" said, Long Chen

Long Chen muttered to himself, " its been 6 years since my family was destroyed in the war, so many things have happened since then".

He was Long Chen, a war orphan whose family members were killed during the enemy kingdom invasion. He was then taken to the military refugee camp where he was there for some time after which he was sent to the military training camp where youths were taught martial arts and helped them in the path of cultivation so that they will fight for the kingdom. He was tested and it was found that he has most average body type even among mortals which were not suitable for cultivation, so he was deemed as waste. For the higher officers, he was deemed to be cannon fodder in the war. He was then sent to another barrack where cannon fodder were trained. Since they were cannon fodders and have high mortality rate, the survival here was very dangerous. The army provided the with some basic body cultivation arts and basic martial arts techniques such as [basic sword technique]. Most people in the cultivation path train in Qi cultivation paths and very few individuals only train in body cultivation arts. Nevertheless little Long Chen, never lost hope and trained diligently. After about 2 years of training in sword, he found out that some mysteries were being clear to him and he could produce some vague silvery light in his sword which increases the attack power and sharpness. After another year when he was about 7 years old, he was sent to war. He, Long Chen have never seen such brutal things in his life except when his family members were killed. He fought with all his might and with the help of the silvery light in his sword he was easily able to kill and survive in the war. After about a year of fighting and brutal killing, some officers of the Scorching Sky kingdoms army noticed and was amazed. He then found out was that that silvery light was [sword intent].

He was then sent to the army's genius camp where excellent youths were trained.

In these 6 years of brutallity, he has seen many things and was matured. Though he was only 10 years old, he was very mature and his thought was like that of an experienced man. Though he was only a mortal with a strong body, by using his sword, he was able to defeat many of the cultivators.

The path of cultivation is divided into Body Tempering stage, Creation and gathering Stage, Qi pond stage, Soul sea stage, Foundation stage, World Tree stage. And each stage was further divided into nine substages. Long Chen by using his sword intent and techniques was able to defeat peak Body Cultivation stage experts.

"Now that I am in [sword essence] late stage in the path of swords, I am now able to defeat late stages experts of Creation and gathering stage," said Long Chen

"Now lets return to the base, tomorrow is the selection of Martial Schools of the kingdom. Though I am unable to cultivate, let's see whether they will take me in based on my comprehension toward swords" After thinking to himself, Long Chen went back to the base to rest.
