《The Journey of The Three Immortals》Chapter 11 - Joining the Air Ki class
Advertisement
Celio was thinking harder and harder, while the queue got shorter.
"...Hm? Wait, I think Master Sliver taught me a spell for this sort of situation."
An idea finally came to Celio's mind. He looked around for a child whose Ki is not weak, but not powerful either. He spotted a noble whose affinity was perfect. Good, that will do the trick.
He mumbled a sentence, a small jolt came from both Huo yi and the noble. The noble child was startled and looked around, what was that shock he felt? Zhou Wei xing felt a drop of sweat trickling down his neck... Haha, was it because he was nervous?That cannot be, He was Zhou Wei xing, fearless and superior! His two servants did not notice anything out of the ordinary as their young master rubbed his neck continuously.
Huo yi also felt the jolt, although he was suprised, he knew it was from Celio.His hands began to get sweaty from the anxiety of waiting, It felt he was taking an imperial examination. Finally when the tester shouted out 'Next!', it was his turn.
He walked quickly towards the tester, with light steps and his hands rubbing on his shirt to get rid of the sweat, except the friction just made it even more worse.
"Place your hand on the soul crystal."
The tester spoke sharply with piercing eyes, what he saw was a timid young boy whose as frail as a vase. If he was not paying attention, he would mistaken Huo yi for a girl. He sighed, if you are weak and apprehensive, In this environment people would not hesitant to step on you.
Huo yi placed his pale hand on the round transparent crystal. The crystal shone brightly, revealing a large cluster of yellow light which danced joyfully in the ball.

"Hmm... Not bad. Peak sliver-rank Air Ki, 368 spirit force. Next!"
Huo yi who was surprised at the announcement, silently walked away to the yellow door where the others who had Air Ki were in.
Celio quickly disabled the spell, switching back the Ki to the noble child. He floated after Huo yi along with his sisters. Zhou Wei xing felt another jolt. What the hell? He was pulled back into reality when the tester called for him.
"....Peak sliver-rank Air Ki, 368 spirit force. What a coincidence, the same power as that boy earlier. Next!"
Zhou Wei xing looked at the tester with wide eyes. What boy?
__________________________________________
'That was a close one.' thought Celio. Or maybe it will be awkward.
Usually, siblings would complement each other when they do a feat, However...
Eva and Eli just glanced around the room with uninterested expressions. The three would only speak to each other if Eva said something stupid or if they were forced to think together. Too bad they didn't have a fourth neutral party in the group. Oh wait, Huo yi was there, but he was still a kid.
Sigh. The three were open-minded, but Celio was the most out of the three. After the incident, he had tried his best to make it up with his sisters. Only to be rejected harshly. However, Celio was not the type to be intimidated and back down. They don't want to accept his sincere apology? Then so be it. He had given up on trying to appease his very stubborn sisters. Perhaps he was immature about it, Celio face revealed a sad look.
Huo yi tottered into the room with his usual small footsteps, gazing throughout the surroundings.
"Big brother Ce, do you think I will be able to make friends?"

Huo yi gazed at Celio with uneasiness. During the five years, Huo yi had began to call the guardians his big brother and sisters. Celio raised an eyebrow.
"Of course, but make sure you make friends with the correct people. There are some who are not to be trusted and will betray you. You need a strong backing that you can rely on. Try making acquaintances with other nobles first."
This was logical, Nobles had money and power supporting them. If you had trouble, they had the authority and power to protect you.
"But how do I make friends?"
Celio's smile became a frown. How do you make friends? From his experience, he had a lot of fans and friends as he was an actor in the modern world. People wanted to familiarize themselves with him as he was a cool-headed and charismatic person. He was also approachable. Celio was about to answer, but Eva was first to answer.
"Seduction."
.....
Seduction your ass! He is a child! Celio hurriedly pushed Eva out of Huo yi's sight.
"Please don't listen to this idiot. Ahem, Little yi, I think that you should just be yourself. Although your nature is...uh, a little timid. Some people may feel more inclined to defend you. Of course, if you need help with some horrible people, let us do the talking."
"... I see!"
Huo yi exclaimed. Be himself, huh? Huo yi headed towards the crowd of children were, in 'large' prideful steps.
"Ah, Little yi. Wait a moment."
Celio quickly tapped Huo yi's shoulder. The small child looked back at him.
"Big brother, what is it?"
"During your stay at the sect, you must always use air magic only. No fire, water or earth magic. Okay?"
Huo yi shook his head. He kept it as his number one rule.
The crowd led to a counter with an old lady behind it. So it was handing out the dorm rooms. Huo yi rushed in, a small figure trying to push into a field of giants. Eh, no good. Eli thought.
"Huo yi. This way is much faster."
Eli possessed Huo yi's legs, using silent steps to get to the front. In a flash, Huo yi was already at the counter. The other students in front were surprised. When did this girl appear?
"Uuu..woahh!"
Huo yi gasped. That was...kind of awesome! Huo yi then tip-toed, his eye just above the counter top.
"E-Excuse me, can I get my room card?"
Huo yi mumbled loud enough for the woman to hear, She looked down and said coldly.
"State your name little girl."
"Eh..ah...Huo yi."
Huo yi heard the girl part, even though he wanted to refute, the old lady was already turning her back to Huo yi as she searched the piles of paper.
"You're actually a boy? Apologies. Room 314. Here's your room card. You will be staying with 4 roommates, you need to bring necessary belongings from your home the next day when you come back."
The old woman said with surprise , she handed Huo yi the card and told him instructions for the next day. After that, Huo yi exited the building to join back with Lin xiao and Tang yu.

Convergence Series
Eulisses Malinor is a prodigious and somewhat reclusive wizard with an unconventional outlook on life itself. The latter may or may not be related to him shedding the burdens of mortality some time ago. He claims that every wizard that takes pride in themself needs to reside in a tower in the middle of nowhere. It definitely has nothing to do with the Addia fanatics that continue to seek him out. Successfuly, much to his discontent. Ever out to ‘cleanse’ him, or bloody murder him if you'd ask the lich himself. But soon, that will no longer be a problem, as Eulisses has finally gathered every reagent - magical or otherwise he needs. He will tear open and stabilize a miniature Rift, essentially creating his very-own pocket realm in which even Addia’s gaze will no longer be able to reach him. Everything has been carefully planned out in advance, so there is no possibility of failure. You can maybe then imagine his bafflement, when instead of the nothingness of his successfully created pocket realm, Eulisses finds himself in a quite holy looking hall, amidst quite too-baffled looking fellows, in the centre of a gigantic summoning circle - allegedly, he cannot read the runes that make it up - and facing a young and quite fair maiden that stares at him quite wide-eyed.
