BIRTH OF DRAGON WARRIORS
23 - First Training

Chu Kai watched the children around him. He had already counted them and was convinced that these leaks numbered 15 people. Of course, they were children of different ages.

"Alright," Chu Kai took a breath and then said, "Before we start setting out, I should say a few things to you guys. First, no one should run around let alone enter the forest without my permission."

"Second, we should always be together. And if any of you don't like me, then just say it. I don't want to be on my way later, there's a yang-hey..! Back there! What are you doing?!"

Chu Kai inwardly scratched his head. The children in front of him were mostly 7 years old, some were even 5 years old. He was really in for a big test if he had to take care of all of them.

"Kids, don't play first. Please listen to me-" Chu Kai exhaled. Only a few children listened to him, the rest there were about five people who were so noisy and it felt like wanting to snap their heads.

Chu Kai raised his hand and without warning struck the tree trunk that was beside him. He used a force large enough that a loud sound could be heard, even breaking the tree trunk.

With Chu Kai's sudden action, all the children were shocked and immediately looked at him. He watched those who could finally shut up.

Without a tone, Chu Kai said. "I will not hesitate to make you like this tree if you do not obey my words. Now with regular steps, let's go."

Several children were seen watching Chu Kai intently. They did not expect that this young man had such great power, even though they had not previously felt the strong aura of this young man.

A 14-year-old boy walked over and approached Chu Kai. He asked, "Dragon Swordsman, are you really the dragon swordsman that Shizun said?"

Chu Kai looked at the boy beside him and then said, "What did your Shizun say?"

"He said you were a dragon warrior and we should be able to take care of you before your power rises. But... Seeing that you can do such a shocking thing... I don't think we should take care of you,"

"Hey.." another boy appeared to approach Chu Kai and asked, "Can you fly?"

"No, I can't do that." Chu Kai answered truthfully and occasionally looked at the children following him from behind.

"I heard, the dragon warrior is very powerful. Even his strength exceeds that of the five holy warriors, but why can't you fly? Swordsman Xia Ling Qing and Swordsman Wei Zhang Zihan alone could do it."

"You don't understand yeah," a kid hit his friend's arm. He looked at Chu Kai and said with great admiration. "The Dragon Warrior flew by riding a dragon. Right, right?"

Chu Kai scratched his non-itchy cheek and replied, "Once you go. I don't know.."

"Dragon Warrior, can I ask you something?" a girl approached and made Chu Kai blink.

"You can call me, 'Kai'. What do you want to ask?"

"All right, then. Kai, how did you get chosen as a dragon warrior? I only hear stories from people. I want to hear it from you, right,"

"...................." Chu Kai was silent. He recalled the incident where he first entered the Wushi Mountain Sect. To be honest, all the things he remembered were nothing worth telling.

A boy approached and took over everything. The boy was very chatty about what happened during the election of the dragon swordsman. Even Chu Kai himself felt surprised by how great this child was to tell a story that was slightly infused with the spice of lies.

Chu Kai only listened to these boys tell stories along their way. But it didn't last long until a child pulled her clothes and made her turn her head. Chu Kai's forehead shriveled in astonishment.

"What's wrong?" Chu Kai asked. The little boy who pulled his clothes had a face so innocent.

"Wounds on your face... How did you get it?"

Chu Kai flinched. He looked at this little boy before finally lowering his gaze. He was just about to open his voice when there was the sound of commotion and the cry of a child.

"Revelation..!" a young boy immediately pushed his friend while throwing a small dagger at the bushes.

The boy carried a basket of vegetables on his back, but it did not make him difficult. The attack that he was pinning was even right on the target because it immediately heard the sound of a growl belonging to a wild animal.

The other children ran over and there was even one hiding behind Chu Kai's back. The 18-year-old himself asked that the children beside him not have to panic too much, even though in fact-he himself was actually worried about this situation.

"Kai, man,"

"Don't be afraid," Chu Kai lowered the basket he had on his back along with a huge wolf leaping out from the direction of the bushes.

!!!

Chu Kai was surprised not to play, but immediately, his eyes immediately turned to the sword of a boy who was beside him.

The beast Chu Kai faced was not of the Demonic Beast type, but it was still extremely dangerous. The children witnessed how Chu Kai swung the sword with a gesture unlike that of the disciples of the Wushi Mountain Sect.

Chu Kai had not never wielded a sword, let alone a beginner in swinging a weapon. It's just that he used to be trained by the creatures who live in the Forest of Moui. He never used his abilities because he was trained not to fight, but to kill.

!!!

In just a few moves, the wolf that Chu Kai was fighting was sprawled in a split body condition. Not to mention that the animal's head was separated from its body and was thrown far away. The children who witnessed how Chu Kai had finished off the creature could only silently freeze and involuntarily hold their breath.

Chu Kai was aware of what he was doing. He became tense and looked anxiously at these children. He has made a big mistake.

What he did was a very brutal murder and the person who saw it was a group of children. What should he explain now? He showed me something no child should see. What if they were afraid and thought of him as a monster?!

"I-i..." Chu Kai felt unwell. He did not know what to give these children.

"Kai...!"

"Well...! How cool..!"

"That's incredible..! How did you do it?!"

"Very great!"

Chu Kai was stunned. These children rushed over and swarmed over, some even directly hugged him and made Chu Kai startled.

"You guys..."

"Kai, teach me! I want! I want to be like you!"

"Teach me too!"

"I want to too!"

Chu Kai blinked. He did not expect to get a response like this. Moreover, he was stunned when he saw a child who was crouching with a plain face and seemed to hug his calf. He now felt like a tree being swarmed by dwarves.

"Calm down, let's just calm down.." Chu Kai became embarrassed for suddenly getting so much attention, let alone from children who were clearly the creatures with the hardest hearts to steal.

Being able to get compliments from young children is certainly not something easy. That was why Chu Kai felt pleased and even slightly misbehaved. The young man scratched his non-itchy head and appeared to be smiling.

Chu Kai was just about to speak when he remembered that wolves generally did not hunt alone, but rather in groups. The wind that blew around him even felt very different.

!!

Along with his premonition, a growling sound came back and made the children who were surrounding Chu Kai startled. They spontaneously turned around and circulated a glance, the children's feelings becoming extremely agitated.

There were four wolves emerging from behind the bushes as well as the trees.The size of their bodies was larger than the previous wolves and with a strong killing appetite.

"Y..!"

"Don't yell," Chu Kai belatedly gave a warning.

A child was already shouting his name and it made the wolves around them jump right away, about to pounce. Chu Kai immediately shot out with the sword in his hand. He slashed the wolf's head and slashed at the animal's legs before it completely blew away a child.

Chu Kai was not alone. Among these children, there were those who were so brave and swung their swords to help the friend who was attacked by the wolf. The children's abilities were still lacking, but the wounds they had inflicted on the animal could help Chu Kai to deliver a final, deadly attack.

AHHHHHHH..!

A child was screaming hysterically. He tried to avoid the bite of a wolf by making the basket he carried as a shield. It was almost as if his head was pounced on if Chu Kai did not move and gave a kick that made the wolf throw.
