5 years later….
Legacy city…..
Four Skies academy…..
Four Skies academy happened to be the highest and best academy within and outside Legacy city. Most of her graduates were all well-known and powerful experts.With a foundation and history of 90 thousand years, it can indeed be called the oldest and most powerful academy in all of Legacy city. The school was for both cultivators and non-cultivators. On the Radiant continent,not all persons had the talent for cultivation, so these people choose professions like doctors,Accountants,Engineers and all that.Like Legacy city, it may have a population of 5.6 million but only 1.9 million had the ability to cultivate, so the remaining 3.7 million were ordinary people.
Outer region….
A tall and slender lady who looked no older than 25 years old, walked round the class containing 25 students with age range of 5 years to 7 years, as she softly and diligently thought her students.
“To become a supreme expert, one must start from the scratch and struggle all the way to the top. Talent is indeed of utmost importance in determining how far a person can go in becoming an expert, however factors like determination, discipline, hard work, solid foundation, steady heart, opportunities, fortune and luck, are a prerequisite to supremacy.”
Speaking up to this point she stopped walking and turned to look at the faces of the young ones she was teaching. The majority of them wore a tired and clueless expression, some went as far as laying their heads on the desk to take a nap, the few ones that seemed to pay attention had a dull look in their eyes, only a scanty few looked at her with bright eyes.
“Excuse me Mam.” The voice of a student rang out in the class, as a boy with pale blue hairs that flowed down his shoulders, raised his hands, beckoning on the teachers attention. The boy looked no older than 5 years,with a bewitchingly handsome face and tender skin like that of baby, attractive lips and a profound gem-like eyes.
“Yes Adrian.” The female teacher flashed the little boy a beautiful smile and she had the urge to go touch his cheeks that where tender and to smooth to be true.
“How can a person cultivate the energy in world?” Adrian asked the teacher.
“Good question.” The teacher said with a smile before she continued “One must be able to feel the energy within nature and try to communicate with the energy, and then drawing it into the body uses it to refine the entire body thereby stepping into the Body Refinement realm. Once the body is refined to the point its durability and strength has far surpassed metal, one can then step into the next realm of power. The first realm on the path of cultivation—Body Refinement realm,it consists of nine ranks, after which, one progresses to the next realm.The essence of this realm is as its name implies;Refining the flesh nine times making it way stronger and tougher than metal,it is the foundation of the tower which is cultivation and must be as solid as a rock if not more. Do you understand, Adrian?”
“Yes mam.” Adrian replied before sitting down.
“Well that will be all for today, Children see you next week and do enjoy your weekend, bye for now.” The female teacher dismissed the kids as she left the class.
Since school was over, the kids packed their books and picked up their bags as the left the class, some in groups of two, three, four or more. Adrian picked up his bag as he turned to leave but accidentally bumped into a girl of similar age.
“Ouch!!” The girls pained exclamation sounded as she fell to the floor.
“Oh!, am sorry .” Adrian hurried to help the girl as he extended his hands to help lift her up. The girl on the floor had ink-black hair which reached her waist, beautiful face, long lashes, crystal clear eyes and a beautiful red plum lips. The girl stood up with the support of Adrian's extended hand.
“Watch your way next time and don't go bumping into people.” The little girl reprimanded Adrian as she stood there looking at the beauti-.. oh! Sorry, I mean handsome, yes handsome boy who knocked her down, she couldn't comprehend why a boy will possess a face and skin that could make a little beauty like her feel envious. Just why in the world will he possess such looks,the heavens must be really blind, this look should be given to us girls, just what was the heavens thinking, well forget it.
“Am really sorry Diana, I didn't mean to knock you down.” Adrian apologized yet again. Diana was a classmate of his and to the best of his knowledge she was from a noble family here within the city but he wasn’t clear on the specifics.
“Hmph! I forgive you, but you have to tell me why-.” Diana snorted, but before she could continue with her statement, Adrian had already disappeared with astonishing speed.
“Damn that little imp.” Diana spoke through gritted teeth as she stomped her little feet on the ground. This was the fifth time he ran away from her before she could ask him what she wanted to ask him.
Meanwhile, Adrian stood outside the school building, panting and gasping for air. The reason he ran so fast and with all his might was because he knew she was going to ask him the same stupid questions she asked him the few times he met her. Whenever she sees him she will ask him questions like “Why is your face more beautiful than mine? Why is your skin so smooth? And oh your eyes as well, they are deep and bright, also you hair color is……”
Just remembering the look in her eyes which looked like she was examining a beautiful human-like doll, a chill ran down his spine and made him feel somewhat cold. Ever since then she has been pestering him non-stop and he couldn't handle the attention. He had never felt comfortable being the center of someone's obsession.And have been avoiding her but seems like he underestimated her persistence.How will he know the reason why he had such hair color? As for the skin tone and texture….just go ask Mother Nature.
