The Wuxia Phone

After Yang Ki"s defeat, the Battle Royal went smoothly without any interruptions.

But Yang Chen, for the rest of Battle Royal, injured many compet.i.tors and Yang Ho just turned a complete blind eye to this and just continued the Tournament.

Inside Yang Chen, something snapped when he was fighting his older brother. Like his s.a.d.i.s.tic nature was awakened while he was fighting his brother.

In the corner of the VIP room, you can see a set pair of eyes full of concern towards Yang Chen, like it was trying itself not to go there for something. This is Yang Chen"s mother, Yang Bi.

Unlike Yang Li, she is very concerned about Yang Chen. She couldn"t do anything to help Yang Chen much earlier because of Yang Li.

Unlike her, Yang Li cares very much about his reputation. He would"ve dispose of her son if it weren"t for her stopping him.

Yesterday, a suspicious man approached her baby boy and gave him some stuff, like manuals, weapons, pills.

At that time, she was watching from a place far enough for them not to notice. She was about to approach them when she felt a dangerous feeling rising inside her heart, so she stopped.

She felt like she saw a silhouette of a western dragon, but she thought it was just her imagination... At least that"s what she thought at first.

Later she saw him watching her son in a far away tree and there she saw it, a giant western dragon bowing in front of that man.

The dragon seems to have been ordered to do something and left for about five minutes before it returned with an Elder Wolf on it"s back.

The man ordered the dragon again and the dragon obeyed, it returned several minutes later with another Elder Wolf on it"s back.

It seems like the man took a liking to the Elder Wolves, she even saw him hugging them like it was nothing. Normally when you hug an Elder Wolf they bite off your head, but the man seemed to have put something on wolves and now they are obeying him.

Suddenly the man ordered the dragon and the dragon picked up one of the Elder Wolves before it put the Elder Wolf on her baby boy"s side.

Her baby boy entered an enlightenment when he was walking on the Forest alone, she wanted to approach him but she can"t, because in a split second she was watching the man, they met each other"s eyes.

When she saw his eyes, it was like she was staring at an abyss, an abyss so deep that she couldn"t help but feel cold on that split second.

After that the man look away and continued watching her baby boy.

She knew by then, that it was a warning, a warning that if she does something wrong, he will kill her. Truly an abyss so deep that she felt like the whole world was cold for a moment.

But it was just a misunderstanding, Michael wasn"t looking at her, he was looking at a bird, who was flying peacefully in the air.

Then she saw her baby boy breaking through the Qi Gathering Stage levels and reached level 9. Which was a shock to her, because even if you entered an enlightenment you won"t breakthrough the levels like that. Unless you use some special pills.

She was interrupted by the Patriarch, who was announcing the end of the Battle Royal.

"I have been amazed by the performance of the last 100 youths in the arena, and for that, you shall all receive a 30 Minutes long break for the next stage of the Tournament" Yang Ho said with his Qi amplifying his voice.

The remaining childrens returned to the waiting room for their 30 Minutes long break from the tournament.

Yang Chen was tired from all the fightings he had to do and because of the minor injuries he received from all of his opponents.

As he entered the waiting room with the other contestants he saw a man wearing a bamboo hat, he couldn"t see the res of his face but he was sure the man was smiling at him.

The man pointed at him and used a hand sign to say "Come here".

Yang Chen look a little suspicious at the man, when he suddenly saw the man lift his bamboo hat a little and saw the man"s face.

It was that Mister from Yesterday!

He ran towards him and before he could speak, he was suddenly met with a sudden strike of nausea.

He cleared his mind up and he was shock to see that he was in a new place entirely, he was outside of the clan!

"What happened?" He asked.

"When you ran towards me, I grabbed your shoulder and ran towards here in a split second" He heard the Mister"s voice behind him.

He turn around and saw the Mister from yesterday, sitting in a large branch of tree that fell off from the original tree.

"Mister!? How did you do that!?" Yang Chen asked with stars all over his eyes.

"As long as you"re strong as me, you can do that too. But not on the same level" The Mister said with a smirk on his face.

"But right now, I can"t afford to go out of the stadium" Yang Chen said.

"Don"t worry about that, Yang Ho should take care of that for me" Michael said uncaringly.

"Yang Ho? Do you mean the Patriarch? Why is he doing that for a kid like me?" Yang Chen asked him in bewilderment.

"You can say that your Patriarch is right under my foot" Michael said with a smirk on his face.

"I don"t get it" Yang Chen shook his head as he couldn"t get what Michael meant.

"Don"t worry about it, you"ll get it someday" Michael said softly.

"Oh yeah, Mister I haven"t learn what your name is" Yang Chen suddenly remembered.

"Hmm, you can just call me Shoyo, Tatsuya Shoyo" Michael said.

"Okay, Shoyo" Yang Chen said innocently.

Michael nodded before he extended his hand and a yellow pill appeared on top of his palm.

"What is that, Shoyo?" Yang Chen asked.

"This is the Jadelight Strengthening Pill, once you eat this pill you will instantly gain 5 times of your current physical strength permanently" Michael explained.

"But the Patriarch said that I can"t use any boost pill of any kind" Yang Chen said sadly

"Don"t worry about that, as long as I"m alive he won"t do a single thing to you" Michael promised him.

"If you say so, Shoyo" Yang Chen trusted Michael more than the Clan, which is weird considering the fact that he just met him yesterday.

Michael gave the Pill to Yang Chen and Yang Chen swallowed the pill after receiving it.

Suddenly he felt like he burning in every part of his body, he started sweating so hard that he felt like he was standing in front of the sun.

"It burns!" Yang Chen yelled out.

It continued for about a minute or so before it stopped.

His body had grown little muscles on his after the burning effect was gone.

Yang Chen breathed heavily as the burning feeling earlier felt like he was in h.e.l.l.

"Why did it make my body burn?" Yang Chen asked Michael while he was breathing heavily.

"That"s just a little side effect of the pill, it was necessary, so that your body can adapt to the sudden increase in strength" Michael explained to him.

"Can I test my new strength here?" Yang Chen asked him.

"Why are you asking me? This is a completely public area" Michael said.

"Okay, I"ll take that as a yes" Yang Chen said as he walk towards a nearby tree before he pulled back his arm and he released a palm attack on the tree.

Bam!

A large hand print was left on the lower half of the tree after he attacked it.

"Wow, with this new strength, no one will be able to beat me in the tournament" Yang Chen said as he felt his new strength.

"Yang Chen, it"s time for the tournament to continue" Michael said.

"Okay, let"s go" Yang Chen walk towards him before he put his hand on his left shoulder and disappeared.

At The Waiting Room

___

Yang Chen and Michael suddenly appeared on the bathroom of the waiting room.

"I"ll be leaving this clan later as I have other business to attend to, do your best at the tournament" Michael encourage him before Michael disappeared in a series of Afterimage.

"Thank you Shoyo!" Yang Chen yelled as he felt warmed in his heart.

"Don"t worry Shoyo, I will win this tournament as the top 1" Yang Chen said with a voice full of confidence.

"Hmph! You? Win this tournament? Your getting a little arrogant, little brother" Suddenly he heard the voice of Yang Mi in front of the bathroom door hallway.

"Yang Mi, what are you doing here?" Yang Chen asked warily.

"Earlier I saw you disappear when you were running towards that man, who also disappeared the same time as you" Yang Mi said coldly.

"So what? It doesn"t have anything to do with you" Yang Chen said coldly.

"Sure it doesn"t have anything to do with me, but I"m sure he gave something to you, something akin to a treasure" Yang Mi said suspiciously.

"No he did not, now get away from me" Yang Chen said with annoyance in his voice.

He push her lightly, but because he couldn"t control his strength yet, she fell.

"Ouch" She yelp in pain.

Yang Chen just walk away and got ready for the tournament.

"Yang Chen!" Yang Mi screamed his name angrily.

At Michael"s Side

_____

Michael walk into the VIP room undisturbed and sat down next to Yang Ho.

The Elders were surprised that a stranger entered the room and the Patriarch isn"t even angry that someone sat beside him.

"Elders, please leave the room. I have a very important conversation with this person right here" Yang Ho ordered them.

Even though they were confused as to why he is making them leave the room, but nonetheless they complied and left the room quietly.

After the Elders left, Yang Ho suddenly kneeled down on one leg with his face changing into a respectful expression.

"Master, what orders do you have for your lowly servant?" Yang Ho asked him.

"I will be leaving this Mountains soon and I want to know about the financial instability of your clan" Michael said in a cold yet soft voice.

"Yes, the clan had ama.s.sed a huge wealth since this clan was built a few millenniums ago, the clan has around 17 Million gold coins worth of spirit stones. But even though I"m the Patriarch, I can"t just spend that money on my own. I will have to budget the things that we need to survive the years, my own gold coins that I can spend is just around a few hundred thousands" Yang Ho explained throughly

"Here" Michael threw a Storage Ring at him.

He caught it and ask "What is this, Master?"

"This storage ring contains 1000 Spirit Stones and a Low Heaven Manual" Michael replied.

Yang Ho almost fainted when he heard what"s inside this storage ring.

"Use 800 hundred of the Spirit Stones inside the storage ring to nurture Yang Chen and then learn the Manual inside the storage ring and teach it to Yang Chen" Michael ordered him.

"Y-Yes Master!" Yang Ho never thought in his whole 107 years of existing, that he will learn a Low Heaven Manual.

"Don"t teach it to anybody, got it?" Michael said coldly.

"I swear to my inner demons that I won"t teach it to anybody but Yang Chen, Master" Yang Ho vowed.

"Good, now make sure that after I leave, Yang Chen will be treated nicely in the clan" Michael ordered.

"Yes Master, he will be treated like a royal Prince inside this clan" Yang Ho said rapidly.

"After he reach the Gold Core Stage, tell him to go to the Land Of Samurai to meet one of my Disciples, he has Silver Hair, dead fish eyes and he is always picking his nose" Michael ordered him again.

"Yes Master" Yang Ho memorize what he said.

"I"m leaving now, and about the library, I"ll visit the next time I come here" Michael said to him before he disappeared.
