Chapter 16

When the two of them was called back in there was the manager who looked like he was having the greatest moment of his live. He then looked at Hao Chen with eyes telling him that the child in front of him was the rarest treasure in the world. Inwardly he was thinking

'Now that i think about it how could have they let such a talented child go. He has done incredibly poor job at it. Oh well, it doesn't matter. After all thanks to whoever they are i am able to get to this kid first. The world isn't fair after all. Muhahahaha. Ahem Wait i don't think i have asked about this kid's name, because i was too excited about it. Let's ask about it'

"Ahem, sorry for the inconvenience, but i don't think i have asked about the two of your name. My name is Ling Tian. Manager i this branch of Spirit Padoga."

"Indeed we haven't introduced our selfs. My name is Yue Ling and this is my son Long Hao Chen. We are thankful that you are going this far for us. Ahh if i remember correctly you told me that, you were going to call someone from higher ups of the Spirit Padoga am i right?"

"Indeed i have just contacted with people from higher ups. And they told me they are going to sent someone from the higher ups to help our situation. He would come tomorrow. His name is Song Weihan he is someone truly talented. And he is about to become titled douluo. He is one of the highest ranked senior in the Spirit Padoga. And i assure you that he will give your son the best possible spirit for him."

"About to become titled douluo huh he should be able to take care of Hao Chen." He once again whispers to himself. And then he turns to Hao Chen and whispers inside his ears

"Hao Chen when that person come then acknowledge him as your master. By doing so you will be his student and get the best of the best from spirit padoga. But since you are only his student you are not actually part of spirit padoga. But you can join them if you want to. They are probably the most powerful faction if this world. But just because they are powerful doesn't mean they are invincible. Nor are they noble. You get that?"

"Yes dad i understand. Basically i have to acknowledge him as my master as a person not as his own person."

"Yes my son"

With that they turn to him. While manager didn't know what they were whispering about he decided to give them the private space that they needed. After looking at them for a while he though that they had done talking with each other. To him they looked like they were whispering with each other about how they can take advantage of the situation.

'It is okay i understand it completely. I would do exactly the same.'

He completely misunderstood them.

"Ahhh sir if you could wait for one more day than tomorrow you would be able to get your spirit ring. The sir said he is bringing the best light spirit rings with him. But on the other hand he told me to measure your spirit power points. So he could be able to give you the best spirit immediately."

"Really right the spirit power measurements. Okay let's take it."

Then the manager bring out one machine as method of determining ones spirit power using technology and soul power. He then had Hao Chen sit next to it and then placed headgear on him. After that he then began typing in console to activate the system. It didn't take long for the machine to start working

"Alright now the machine will start working. But don't worry it won't hurt. The machine will simply have some spirit power invade inside your head. But don't reject it. It is merely going inside your head to get. And you on the other hand need too focus on that spirit power. The more you focus the more powerful it can be. But don't reject or push the power out of your self though. Just calm your breathing and keep focusing on that power. Okay here it comes remember what i said just calm your head."

Just like he said some kind of power goes inside his head. It was warm and cool at the same time. But it didn't feel weird to him thankfully.

'Is this how they measure spirit power? It is the first time to me. In my previous life we had different way of measurement. Well it was to be expected though. Now how do i measure this. Ahhh right, in soul land 2 Huo Yuhao said spirit power is will power if i remember it correctly. If so then i just have to keep my concentration right at this. Than i should be able to do so"

With it he stopped thinking and let go of everything inside his head. He learned this from his teacher. With nothing to take away his attention he would be able to concentrate better. It was called inner peace. The technique that his teacher created. While it may look useless it is pretty handy skill. It is useful in combat and in meditation. With it his concentration was at all time high.

But what he didn't know was that both his father and manager were completely shocked. When he finally opened his eyes he saw number that was incredibly high.

"Spirit power of over 1000 points. At age of 6 damn if i didn't know of his talents i would be shitting my pants. But Still it is unbelievable. What a monster."

'We have to get him no matter what. I have never heard of anyone with such a high level at this age.'

"Ahh can you leave your contact information here. We will leave your contact number here so we can contact you when my superior comes here."

"We will leave it here. Here take this this is the id you can use to contact us. Now Hao Chen let's go home"

"Okay dad"

With that the two of them left the room and started heading toward the exit. While he was going Hao Chen had many thoughts inside his head. From his spirit power to his future teacher to the fact that his parents were going to leave him. But somehow he was calm. Not that he wasn't sad or anything. Maybe somewhere in his heart he was prepared for it. After all in his previous life his parents also left him. Maybe that was the reason for it. Or was it something else, he doesn't now. But all he knows is that he feels empty. Like he doesn't feel anything now that he came out of the Branch of Spirit Padoga. Maybe because he was fooling his sadness away by trying to think about the more important things. But all he knows is that every step feels like eternity. Like he could feel the time slowing down. After long and tiring ride he was finally outside of his house. He doesn't know why but he sprinted to the house and got in. Inside his mom was watching the tv. It looked like she had just finished cooking and was waiting for them. Now that he thought about it his mom always knew when to cook. Well it might be sixth sense. But it didn't matter to him. All he wanted to do was just hug her.

"Hao Chen what happened. Is everything okay? Nothing bad happened did it?"

"It.... It is okay mom. It is just i don't know....."

He didn't even realize that he was crying hard. All the things that has been building up seems to have exploded. He just stayed there crying with his mom trying to calm him down. After a while he fell a sleep. He didn't even realize his father was right behind him.

"So what happened" She asks even though she already knows what happened.

"We have to go now. They are going to find us if we don't."

"What, already?"

"Sigh we both now that we were here little too much. But now we have to go. if we don't take their attention away from him then they will target him. In fact i am already scared that they will target him."

"Really what should we do, the main reason that we are leaving him is because we don't want him to be in danger."

"I know so the two of us will first gain their attention away from him. Second we would need to have him in someone who can protect him. But thankfully i have met someone who can do that for quite a while."

With that he whispers some things into her ears.

"Really you met them? Indeed i have and i even talked with him and had already prepared everything. But i just didn't expect that we will do it so soon. And finally you know that we have got in Spirit Padoga right? Well they are sending someone strong to have Hao Chen join them. From what i have heard he is almost titled douluo, so he should be able to protect him from everything else. So he would be safe. But most importantly we have to get their attention on the two of us. So they wouldn't target him."

"I understand but shouldn't we contact the teacher? They should be able to help him."

"They probably can but even if there is a slightest chance that he has same spirit as you then he would be having to dealt with the same problem that we had to deal. We wouldn't want that situation to happen both for Hao Chen and for our teacher."

"I know but i am scared. I don't want bad things happen to our son. I love him too much to let it happen"

"I know i love him too. But he is strong my dear, he has more talent and power than i ever had. He is kind and determined he is destined for greatness. After all he is our son. So we shouldn't worry for him now but we will help him when he gets stronger. And lets start packing things up. We have to leave."

"But can't we wait just for a bit. I want to say everything in my heart. If not i wouldn't have a calm heart that i might go crazy."

She says that while almost crying. Seen that he couldn't bring himself to leave.

"Okay one day.... One day should be able to do it. But we wouldn't able to get any rest when we are going."

"It is okay i just want to say things that has been i my heart for quite a while. But i want to see him grow up. I want to be with him in many thing. I have so many wishes.... But it is fine. As long as you are happy."
