《Start With Contracting Sprites》Chapter 142: Heavenly King Wu: He Can't Run Anywhere [Priority Reservation!]
Advertisement
The training method Su Hao designed for the Water Unicorn Beast was very simple.
It was to climb up against the force of the waterfall.
In the beginning, it could step on the rock wall first. When it got familiar, it should step on air completely.
Falling? That was normal.
Every successful person has to first grind their muscles and bones, hurting their body and skin.
The Water Unicorn Beast, which had never experienced demonic training, was stunned on the spot.
The Flaming Cloud Crow stretched out its wings and patted it.
Meaning to tell it not to be afraid, and that it would soon be used to it.
It had been this way for itself as well…
"You have to go too." Su Hao looked at the Flaming Cloud Crow. "The requirements for you aren't that high. Find an area with a weaker impact, then use the Flaming Feather Stance. When you can maintain the Flaming Feather Stance in the waterfall for five minutes, you'll be done."
Flaming Cloud Crow: "Σ(⊙▽⊙"a "
I can't do it!!!
...
"Yes, like that, a bit towards the left."
Su Hao was guiding the Water Unicorn Beast step by step.
To let it grasp the rhythm of resisting the impact of the waterfall.
On the other side.
The Flaming Cloud Crow had held back for a long time. Finally, at a dense misty spot, translucent feathers of fire appeared on the black feathers. They arranged themselves and circles of red light spread out.
It looked majestic.
It made a "Squawk" sound, and with an irreversible aura, it charged towards the skyfall.
Boom!
The water streams hit the Flaming Cloud Crow, water and fire collided. Under the high temperature, waves of hot mist exploded… It felt like it could steam a sauna.
The red glow on the Flaming Cloud Crow flickered in the waterfall, like a light bulb that was about to break.
Ten over seconds later…
Bang!!
The Flaming Cloud Crow turned into a Water Sunken Crow. It spread its wings and floated on the water surface as though it was crippled. It floated to the shore with the flow of the water.
"Squawk~"
Su Hao picked it up and shook it.
He wasn't surprised to see that the Flaming Cloud Crow's eyes were still dull and lifeless as if it was spoilt.

He took out the third type jade powder set meal that he had prepared long ago.
It exuded a fatal attraction.
The Flaming Cloud Crow moved over.
Su Hao slammed the lid shut.
"Squawk???"
How cruel!
Su Hao said to it, "As long as you can hold on for one minute, you can have as much as you want."
"Even if you can't take it today, you still have to continue practising tomorrow, but… there won't be any rewards. Think about it, isn't it a loss?"
Seems… seems like it.
If Reverie Butterfly was present at this moment, it would definitely make a disdainful "gurgle".
But it wasn't.
Su Hao thought about it. Giving Reverie Butterfly a day off didn't seem too bad either.
The lost training, will soon be made up with interest inclusive.
The Flaming Cloud Crow continued on fighting.
The Water Unicorn Beast was also climbing up. After being washed down, it climbed up again. In the repeated cycle of being washed down, it was constantly being trained hard.
However, since it was water-element and had thick scales. It wasn't too uncomfortable for it to be washed away by the waterfall.
It was also one with lots of energy.
It even displayed interest after a while.
With increasing excitement, it kept calling out "Neigh neigh".
Su Hao touched his chin.
He seemed to have figured out the trick to stimulate the Water Unicorn Beast's fighting spirit.
That's good.
"Student, your Water Cloud Horse is a second-generation sprite, right? It's training Cloud Steps?"
Su Hao turned around and saw a middle-aged man with thick black hair walking over.
The man looked at the waterfall and said seemingly casually.
"When training Cloud Steps, you can first let the Water Cloud Horse move along a specific route and plan every foothold. It's easier for sprites to learn unique skills that way."
He gave a few pointers regarding the route plans of the Water Cloud Horse.
In the end, he said, "…Your sprite cultivation is pretty good. Continue to work hard."
Then, he touched his thick hair and walked away.
Su Hao was rendered speechless.
Based on his analysis, that was likely a school instructor.
Like students, he also probably frequented various training venues.
"However, he should just be a normal instructor."

There was a basis behind his conclusion.
This instructor had thick black hair and was even combed neatly.
He was also dressed very neatly.
Which expert would be dressed like this?
Real experts wouldn't come to a relatively basic training area like Skyfall either.
He immediately forgot about the middle-aged instructor.
He continued to supervise (strikethrough) guide the Water Unicorn Beast and Flaming Cloud Crow in their training.
...
Heavenly King Wu left and walked to a place with no one.
A force enveloped his body.
In an instant, he disappeared. When he reappeared, he was already high in the sky.
He hung there, touched his chin, and let the wind blow his hair, which did not get messy despite so.
Behind Heavenly King Wu was a sprite as tall as a human and shaped like a doll.
It showed agility behind its pair of eyes.
Countless translucent threads shot out from the doll's hand, and the ends of the threads were hidden in the air.
The evolved form of Marionette, Trading Puppet.
Wood/Consciousness, a double element sprite.
The Psychic power it sent out held Heavenly King Wu and hid him as he observed the surroundings.
Even if someone looked up, they couldn't see Heavenly King Wu's figure.
Only the clouds in the blue sky.
"Little Su, not bad indeed."
Heavenly King Wu had actually been observing for a long time.
He witnessed Su Hao's hard work, and understood his character.
Excellent students yearned to learn from good instructors.
But how could Heavenly Kings like them who worked in universities not want to take in a student they were satisfied with?
Who would not want to produce an expert?
Heavenly King Wu could already imagine the day when their group of old friends would gather.
A Heavenly King: "I've cultivated another main sprite."
Heavenly King Wu: "My disciple is already a Heavenly King."
A Heavenly King: "I created a new secret manual."
Heavenly King Wu: "My disciple is already a Heavenly King."
A Heavenly King: "I'm in the New World…"
Heavenly King Wu: "My disciple is already a Heavenly King."
How cool was that!
Heavenly King Wu touched his chin. "My pointers can make it easier for Little Su's sprite to learn Cloud Steps. With today as the basis, when school officially starts and the coaches are selected, Little Su will probably be very surprised to see me and that striking Heavenly King level logo."
He felt there was nowhere else this student could run to.
Everything is ready, now we just have to wait for school to reopen.
Heavenly King Wu did not continue waiting any longer.
There were many other things that kept him occupied.
"Let's go."
...
The Heavenly Kings of Whale Island University all had their own manors in the school to house their sprites.
There was even a logistics team taking care of it.
Many of them were licensed Sprite Cultivators.
At this moment…
At the entrance of Martial Arts Heavenly King's manor, a muscular boy with bare arms and muscles as hard as rock walked in.
A Great Titan followed behind the muscular boy, maintaining the same waving motion as him.
"Teacher, I've already comprehended the profound meaning that you spoke of!"
He was talking about me, not a sprite.
As the disciple of Martial Arts Heavenly King, the worshippers and sprites improved together in their lineage.
Even though the manpower was limited.
But it was not a reason for them to give up on their own progress.
When the bare-chested boy walked in, he saw Heavenly King Bu, whose body was two rounds wider than his, sprawled on the ground. He had one hand behind his back and the thumb of his other hand pressed against the ground. He was doing one-handed thumb push-ups.
He moved up and down at light speed.
After finishing one set, Heavenly King Bu stood up without looking tired at all.
He was also half-naked, with very well-developed muscles. His upper body was wide, and his body had an inverted triangle shape.
When he stood up, he was half a head taller than the bare-chested boy, and it was as if he had blocked the sunlight from casting a large shadow on him.
Extreme impact!
It wasn't much worse than the Great Titan behind the boy!
The bare-chested boy chatted with the tutor about his training.
He made a few movements.
How long did it last?
As he spoke, he saw Heavenly King Wu.
"Old Wu? What's his relationship with that new student? Could he be Old Wu's illegitimate son?"
Heavenly King Bu showed an interested look.

Quebracho: The Legend of Two Heroes
After a violent and tough battle, you recover in an infirmary with your fellow soldiers, or in a more relatable scenario, visit your friend's house after a hard day of studying. You’d expect that both of them would play out normally for the most part, right? Well... Maxon Cortez and Jason McGuire had the same thoughts too. Yet, fate has different plans for them: Max ends up in an eerie location he doesn’t recognize and Jace gets transported to an entirely different world that works like a video game (sort of) by walking into a portal. As they travel along the lands, the two of them will encounter other individuals of many kinds, make friends new and old, gain powerful abilities, experience spectacular adventures, and obtain priceless treasures. However, Maxon and Jason will unknowingly become integral parts of a nefarious conspiracy that, if successful, will plunge both of their worlds into eternal chaos and darkness. So it’s up to them and their allies to thwart it. Side-Note: I’ll admit right off the bat that this story will be my first attempt at writing a LitRPG, so the in-game mechanics and terminology will probably look weird and be even nonsensical. If you notice something that’s out-of-place or just flat out wrong, I apologize. Not only that, it's been a while since I've wrote anything and thus I'm a little bit rusty. So please bear with me. New chapters once every Saturday or Sunday. Also, I'll be fine-tuning the grammar, punctuation, and spelling when I have the time. So expect a lot of random edits. This story is also available on ScribbleHub.

Solstice Anthology
A collection of short stories I've written over the past few years, the centerpiece being "Solstice" itself: On the Winter Solstice, the wind whispered. It roared and blew across the world, and reached even the Heavens above. With it, the great cold of winter flooded across that higher plane, and the gods staggered. They felt the golden dust of their divinity drift away from them, and the message of that wind became clear… This Winter will never end so that the Earth will.
