BIRTH OF DRAGON WARRIORS
101 - Xiang Yu City

"It's hard to increase your potential in a month, but I'm quite satisfied because you're not as fat as I thought." Wei Shezi opened his voice when he saw the practice of Chu Kai who was now at Shis [] and it was drawn on the back of the young man's hand.

Only the back of Chu Kai's hand was shone by the light in that dark room. It was even out of nowhere when the big stone closed the entrance, the place where Chu Kai was.

If you look carefully, this room was previously illuminated by light coming from rocks attached to the wall. Yet now the number of glowing stones was much reduced, as if someone had purposely crushed the stone.

In that dim light, the floor and walls of this room were filled with sword marks. There were many changes happening to the room that Chu Kai was in right now, even the air in this place became even more pressing. The only thing that did not change was the pool of clear water that reflected the light from the shining rock on it.

"Alright," Wei Shezi's voice sounded, "You seem to be very excited. Now is body refining training, it deals with muscles, bones, and marrow. Take your position and concentrate, I'll explain."

Outside the cave.

"You seem to be fine now," Xia Feng Hua looked at Xia Ling Qing who was in front of her. It had been a month since he had asked the girl before him to stay in this place and conduct closed-door training.

"This is information for a month." Xia Feng Hua handed him a scroll and was accepted by Xia Ling Qing. He stared at the door of the cave before him before opening his voice.

"Why didn't Kai come out with you?" Xia Feng Hua opened his voice. He asked Chu Kai for whereabouts.

Without a tone, Xia Ling Qing said. "No need to find that guy. He's probably still training in there. I'll go first. Just have him catch up when he comes out,"

"Ling Qing'Er," Xia Feng Hua stopped Xia Ling Qing's footsteps. He said softly, "Can you treat Kai a little better? He still had many flaws, but had to shoulder a great responsibility. I was hoping you could be friends with him,"

"............." Xia Ling Qing watched her father who walked away leaving her. He stared into the cave before snorting. His facial expression did not change.

Xia Ling Qing darted away, he returned to his room and prepared all the supplies to be taken to the Valley of the Volcano. At the main gate of the Sect, Xia Ling Qing met Wei Zhang Zihan.

"So the one that went with me was you?" Xia Ling Qing said coldly. He breathed and then walked. The sword is seen in his left hand.

"It's a three-man mission, so where's Kai?" Wei Zhang Zihan asked and made Xia Ling Qing stare at him.

"He's still doing closed-door training. Whatever happens to him. He even closed the door of his room," Xia Ling Qing started riding a horse that had previously been prepared by a disciple of the Wushi Mountain Sect.

Wei Zhang Zihan rode another horse. Their current destination was the Valley of the Fiery Land. A place that was at the border between Xiang Yu City and Shi Huang City.

Xiang Yu City was to the north of Lianyi City. The city had a vast territory with delegations and trade visiting from every place. A magnificent city full of liveliness.

People of various hair, eye and skin colors mixed together was already a common sight in this Xiang Yu City. And the famous college in Xiang Yu City was Rufeng Tower.

The Valley of the Land of Fire includes forbidden territory and a place rarely visited. This location has a large expanse of rocky soil, looks reddish. In a year, there are times when the ground of this place will feel hot, there are even bursts of fire in the cracks of the rocks.

This phenomenon happened because in the middle of the valley there was an ancient tomb. It was said that the owner of this tomb was a cultivator who had reached the peak of cultivation.

The journey of Xia Ling Qing and Wei Zhang Zihan could be said to be not too smooth as these two warriors chose the fastest way to arrive at Xiang Yu City.

The fight between Xia Ling Qing and Wei Zhang Zihan against the black horned wolf was not too difficult as the demonic beast was still in the middle level beast faction.

For ordinary humans, demonic beasts were extremely dangerous beasts and difficult to deal with. However for warriors like Xia Ling Qing and Wei Zhang Zihan, this kind of animal did not provide them with much of a threat.

Upon arriving at Xiang Yu City, the two stopped by for a moment at a tavern. There were many types of customers in this two-story building, not even a few of them were warriors from a sect.

Xia Ling Qing watched the surroundings. Actually, this store has a special room to receive customers from the swordsman type. People like Xia Ling Qing and Wei Zhang Zihan had always occupied the second floor because of their pride and status that felt higher than ordinary merchants or humans.

Merely, Xia Ling Qing and Wei Zhang Zihan did not need that privilege for now. Both of them were too tired from the long journey without rest.

"..............."

"..............."

Xia Ling Qing and Wei Zhang Zihan looked at each other. Along this path, they indeed rarely communicated and only continued to dart forward after losing their respective horses. No one discusses for a break, as if in silence - there is a heavy competition between the two.

"Excuse me," a servant approached the table where Xia Ling Qing and Wei Zhang Zihan were. The female servant smiled and said, "Is there anything I can do for Young Master and Miss?"

Xia Ling Qing without looking towards the servant beside him, he said. "Serve the best menu here,"

"I'm rice and clear vegetables," Wei Zhang Zihan opened his voice and made Xia Ling Qing snort.

"Spicy fish head. Serve it as well" Xia Ling Qing added.

"Well, I'll be ready soon. Please wait a moment," the waiter smiled. Somehow he felt something was strange to these two people, as if they should not be left with one table.

"....... I heard it like that,"

Xia Ling Qing turned his head when he heard a voice from a bench not far from him. He saw four people talking about sedans talking about something. Of the swords near them, the four people were none other than warriors.

"The ancient tomb belonged to a cultivator who was at the Eternal Heaven Level. This level was the pinnacle of cultivation and it certainly became a legend. It could be imagined how many treasures and heirlooms could be obtained from the tomb."

"The problem is this ancient tomb has been much awaited by warriors from various sects. We're lucky if we can get a valuable heirloom in that place,"

"Haiih, the other problem is that the ancient tomb created by an Eternal Heaven Level Cultivator cannot possibly be simple. I'm sure there's a lot of traps in it,"

Xia Ling Qing heard it and also knew it. He will only take a look when the swordsman's words again attract his attention.

"..... I heard even the Manifestation Realm will open in this ancient tomb hall. Only ten people could go to the manifestation realm and obtain the strongest technique,"

Xia Ling Qing's expression became complicated. He had not expected that news of the manifestation realm could be spread to this extent. The opening of this realm was what he had to watch out for because if the one who entered into the manifestation realm was a cultivator from the Dead Moon Sect, then it was inconceivable what chaos would ensue.

Wei Zhang Zihan did not say anything, but from his eyes-she clearly had the same thought as Xia Ling Qing. They must not allow the members of the Dead Moon Sect to monopolize the contents of this ancient tomb, and even as much as possible the sect must not be allowed to obtain any valuable heirlooms or the safety of many people would be threatened.
