Chapter 2 - 2: Tang San, Xiao Wu and Xiao Yan(1)

Standing up, he stretched his aching and sore muscles and let out a sigh. Truly, a big change from a lazy fat nobody to a training maniac.

"Xiao Yan-gege, here!" Turning his head, Xiao Yan's face met towel. Grumbling, he tear it off of his face and stare in annoyance at the culprit who threw it at him.

"Wu-er, what the heck?" He asked in slight annoyance.

"Hehe. That was for not assisting me and Tang San-gege yesterday!" The culprit, a nine year old girl with jet-black scorpion styled hair wearing a simple pink shirt and white short shorts, giggling in amus.e.m.e.nt and mischief.

This girl is Xiao Wu, his little sister. No their not related, although they have the same surname, their sworn siblings. How that happened you might ask? Well, when you proclaim yourself in a room with a girl as an advocate of gender equality, stuff happens.

Anyways, long story short. Xiao Yan got his a.s.s handed to him but became good friends with her and a certain black haired reincarnated polite boy.

"Well, you guys handled it well." Xiao Yan simply replied back. Yup, they truly did. Having to beat up all the street gangs in the city while having fun was just a one sided massacre. Especially since the only strongest person in the gangs that they beat up were a spirit grandmaster with two white rings.

Despite this city having a spirit hall, it didn't mean that the crimes and injustice going around the city wasn't happening, especially since the spirit hall of the city was lowly ranked one that only had a tool spirit spirit ancestor which almost had zero combat skills when he last checked on the guy.

Shaking his head, Xiao Yan enviously stare at Xiao Wu before releasing a long and resigned sigh.

Despite being almost the same age, with Xiao Wu being a couple of months younger than him, the difference between them was like heaven and earth.

At nine years old, Xiao Wu was a powerful beast spirit master with a spirit power cultivation of 22, which effectively made her one of the most powerful spirit master of her peers in the entire Nouding Academy school body.

Now for him, Xiao Yan, however was pathetic to speak off. At nine years old, his a tool spirit master with a lowly ranked spirit, a recent checked spirit power of 10 and his only defining feature was his great physical strength.

'Yup, I suck.' Xiao Yan thought to himself, dejected, at his pathetic description of himself. Although he was supposed to be a main character, he sucks at cultivation.

'I mean, what the hell could I do? I don't have hack techniques from another world, unlike a certain reincarnated main protagonist, I was a normal guy with a normal life until I got into this world.'

Xiao Yan was also an orphan in this world, raised by an old man from a pharmacy store in the Nouding City which was close to the academy, he was able to get into this school was because he had awakened with a spirit power of 6. He was happy and had immediately chose to attend the academy. The old man who had taken care of him was also happy and had celebrated by teaching Xiao Yan on how to create pills.

Things would have been great for him if his awakened spirit essence wasn't giving him trouble! He would have been a true spirit master if it weren't for it.

His spirit essence seems to slow the speed of his cultivation. Like, imagine a normal cultivator with the same spirit power as Xiao Yan when they awakened their spirit essence. They would advance a rank every once in a couple of months. With him though? He was only able to advance a rank every once in several months.

But that talk would be for another day as the first bell rang, causing Xiao Yan's skin to pale like a vampire.

"AHHH! GRANDMASTER WILL KILL ME!" He yelled out, quickly wiping every last bit of sweat off his body away. Xiao Yan immediately left the courtyard and went back into the dorm to change.

Xiao Wu, his little sister and a hundred thousand year old loli, merely giggled and waved at her sworn brother.

Many would wonder why would she, and her other sworn brother, accompany such a weak person like Xiao Yan. Well, that was because of he was interesting like San-gege.

Where others that was as weak as Xiao Yan-gege would s.u.c.k.e.d up to others like a parasite or just accept the fate that had shackled them. Xiao Yan-gege, would just grit his teeth and let out a big smile like he didn't care. When others would just play around if they cultivate or just didn't give their all, Xiao Yan-gege would do the opposite.

He was like San-gege but without the gifts the heavens given to him.

And also, he had something that San-gege did not have...

Staring at the back of the quickly fading figure of her sworn brother, Xiao Wu let out a small smile and a glint of greater intelligence fitting for someone of her real age flash momentarily in her eyes.

A fiery bright will and future that can even melt the heavens.

"I hope you surprise me, Xiao Yan-gege..."
