The disciple of the great elder

Galloping as fast as possible, Si Zhang was wondering what rules the duels would have. apparenlty they had yet to be disclosed, "Yami, go faster!" looking at Si Zhang, yami could not believe what he heard "Go faster?! Does this crazy human have the intention to kill me from exhaustion!"

"Why are you looking at me like that? concentrate on the road" sensing that Yami could not go any faster an incredible thought ran through his mind. What if he circulated some qi into Yami's legs?

Placing his hand on Yami's back he began circulating his qi, moving it through his body to finally arrive to the legs.

At first he did not like it. Squealing and showing his dissatisfaction, Yami was getting very agitated. He was feeling a hot, raging thing moving in his body towards his legs.

Arriving in his legs it became calm but it was still hot. It became calm because Si Zhang was controlling his qi to avoid any harm that could happen to his precious horse.

Yami became much faster and his exhausted legs were back on track.

Ding! "quest completed: assist Si Guang and Si Chen in protecting the border."

Ding! "+100 000xp and 100 gold coins"

Level up!

"i don't have time to check the system right now, I will check later" he must focus because he has to control his qi. Galloping with much higher speed, today they traveled three hundred kilometers.

It was sunset, so Si Zhang decided to take a break. Yami felt asleep very fast, as for our well-loved protagonist, he was going to learn the swordskill that was given to him.

Taking the swordskill and opening it, Si Zhang was soon dissapointed by the system notification.

Ding! "host cannot learn[Thousand Demonic Slashes]. Requirement: early stage first-rate martial warrior

"shit, that sucks, This system should be called the fucking grind system! " angry with the system notification, Si Zhang decided to check his stats. "system"

"nice, I have 10 available points. Even my physical state and internal state have increased by ten. mmmm maybe it is because I have increased my realm by one"

Si Zhang decided to put the whole ten points in intelligence and was once again surprised by the system notification.

Ding! "host has become intelligent enough to inspect things"

Ding! "[Inspect] skill unlocked"

"hahahahha, finally I have a skill now. Perfect perfect, but what does it mean by intelligent enough! Fuck you system! " from turning angry to happy then angry once again, Si Zhang decided to test his new skill.

Going near the sleeping Yami, Si Zhang gave it a try. "Inspect" seeing gray words appear above yami's head, he was amazed.

"horse, it says that it is a horse. It's not like I didn't know! System are you playing with me?!"

Not willing to accept it, Si Zhang looked at a stone and inspected it.

"a stone, fuck this skill. I don't even know what uses it has" Si Zhang was very angry, so he went to sleep to vent it. Waking up in the morning he resumed the travel.

Doing the same thing as yesterday, Yami galloped fast, so fast. In four hours they approached the main gate of Si City.

Like always the guards were not paying attention, They were chatting. "In two days time, the duels will take place in the great Demon City, it's gonna be tough"

A big headed guard was talking to the other guards. They were sitting in a circle with him in the middle. "Why is it gonna be tough, elder brother?"

Hearing the question of his junior he answered proudly, it was the perfect time for him to show his knowledge. "junior, you know that each elder has their own disciple, right?"

Seeing his junior nod, he resumed "well, the strongest are the disciples of the fifth and the sixth elder, Si Guang and Si Chen. Or should I say the previous strongest" with a mysterious gaze he looked at all his juniors.

"why? Is there maybe someone stronger now, Is it the princess of poisons?" turning his big head aggressively to his junior, he responded with a deep voice.

"NO JUNIOR, if you listen to the clan news closely then you should know that around thirty days ago, the strongest expert of our Si clan, the great elder, has finally taken in a disciple after 125 years of life."

"according to the rumors that have been spreading those last days, his disciple is tall and muscular, his hair has the color of blood because he baths in the blood of his fallen enemies. He wields a scythe that is so sharp, it could cut through any surface"

Hearing their senior brother's words all the juniors were amazed, such an expert was under the wing of the great elder.

"senior you said that it was gonna be tough to win the duels but with the disciple of the great elder, the clan will triumph."

"first of all I never said that. But, but..." not knowing what to say he turned his big head at the foot of the main gate, he saw a little boy on his horse. Si Zhang was waiting for nearly 10 minutes.

He heard their story about how he looked according to the rumors, he found it funny.

"hey, hey, hey! What are you doing here little boy, don't you know that this is Si City. Get the hell out before we kill you"

Damn this big headed guard surely had a temper. Without saying a word, Si Zhang throwed his token to the guard. The token bumped his big head, but it was cushioned.

Looking at the token, his heart skipped a beat.

"he is the disciple of the great elder?" he tried to speak as low as possible but every other guard heard him.

"Open the gate juniors and greet this young master!" dropping the token to Si Zhang he greeted him immediately.

Having opened the gate, all the guards greeted him. They only had one thought. "how has this child become the disciple of the great elder?"

Making way in the city, it was time to show his progress to Master Si.
