《Re:Direction The Peak (Cultivation Tale)》CH. 37
Advertisement
The trio soon arrived at a certain entrance where a group of two dozens were waiting at the side. This was the faction Han-Bi and Sang-Min belonged to. They went to join the group while bringing Jin along of course. That was the whole point. The greetings between them were rather short and jovial. Then, they introduced Jin to every single member, one at a time. Jin was forced to greet them back one at a time.
It certainly felt like a pain until they reached the last two. One was a youthful beauty with long blond hair and blue eyes while the other was a fatty with a serene smile. The faction leader Seung-Ja and the famous Chong-Oh. Jin greeted them both but was a little puzzled to see Chong-Oh here. But that's all. It was not for him to point it out. It wasn't his business.
Still, he could clearly see a change in Han-Bi as she introduced them. She who had been a teasing vixen turned out into a little and meek kitten in front of this fatty. It was quite the sight. Sang-Min was sighing at the heavens on the side as he witnessed this...
Anyways, the trio were the last to arrive and the seats had already been reserved so they went inside. As they walked in, Sang-Min spoke to Jin: " You saw how she reacted to Chong-Oh? How can I ever compete with that? " but instead of expecting an answer, it was more of the guy grumbling. Jin didn't reply. There was no point.
Turned out that the arena in the inner sect had a single ring. But what a ring that was. It was as wide as one of those stadiums back in his previous world. One of those big stadiums where youths kicked balls, were idolized for it and payed millions. Damn, just the thought brought him frustration...Anyways, the ring was very big. And that was quite unexpected.

He believed it would be the same as for the outer court...It was far from it. Sang-Min explained: " It's rare for fights to happen in the inner sect as most of us spend our time cultivating or working on side-businesses. When there's a fight however, we need a bigger arena. You will see but fights between outer disciples and those between inner sect disciples are very different "
Jin nodded but scoffed internally. How could fights be different? It would always just be about who could hit the hardest. Sure, since they were cultivators, the blows would be far stronger but so what? In the end, the techniques were the same, the basics unchanged.
Oh, how wrong he was!
They had walked quite high in the stands. In fact, they were close to the end and the highest level. There were only a few dozen levels higher than them... It felt a little weird considering that those were inner sect disciples. Weren't they supposed to have quite the status. Curious about that, he asked Jin as they took a seat: "Why are we so far from the arena?"
And it turned out that he wasn't answered by Sang-Min but the laughter of the other members of the faction who easily overheard him. Soon after, it was Seung-Ja who asked him from the other end of their seats: " Why do you think so, little guy?"
Pushing aside the fact that a young girl called him a little guy, burying the urge to retort deep inside, he thought about it. He couldn't find any reasons so began to check those that had seat further down. There were a lot of inner sect disciples and even more elders from all areas. Yeah, he had no fucking idea. He told her: " Why don't you enlighten me, little girl?"

In the end, he couldn't help but retort. Much to the amusement of the crowd. Even the 'little girl' found it an hilarious comeback. Who these days would dare talk back to her like that? Even seniors didn't dare. After all, everyone here understood one thing: the future would be brighter for some. And more than that, they knew they would live a long time, or hoped to at least.
Who would dare mess with her? She was a new entrant, true, but a top new entrant. What kind of character was that? What potential was hidden inside her hot body? The other disciples were well aware of it. Even some elders were fawning over her already, trying to grab her thighs.
Indeed, it took a fearless idiot to dare do so. And it just happened that the biggest idiot of the century was right there. After all, it was no longer a secret that this kid dared spit at the face of an esteemed core elder...She couldn't help but enjoy the fearlessness and foolishness of this youth. As such, she didn't took it to heart and instead told him: "We are new entrants in the inner sect, all those in front are our seniors, do you think they would give up their seats to us juniors?"
As he heard her explanation, he couldn't help but admit that he had been quite dumb about it. It wasn't his previous world where you could buy tickets to watch a match. This was the cultivation world. Obviously, the stronger ones would take the best seats. Because Might ruled.
In the end, he nodded and said: "Makes sense, thanks sis" and returned to checking out the different people around. However, Seung-Ja and the other members were very interested about the kid. Sang-Min and Han-Bi did bring him here in hope that he could join the faction after all.
Since the fight wouldn't happen for some time, they would take the time to chat with him and sound him out. He was a promising talent for sure but what mattered more than that was his personality. Strength ruled, true, but factions feared pig-like teammates and betrayers far more than weak links.
As such, they planned to test him a little~

A World Forgotten
***This story will contain lite-litrpg elements, mainly character pages and a town page. There will also be settlement building and adventuring, missteps and achievements. But one thing it definitely won’t have is a harem. Nor will it have an overpowered MC. Contains mild cursing.*** ***feel free to critique my writing and offer input. This is my first venture into writing. I've always enjoyed litrpg/gamelit books. I feel like I write how I talk, so it may be a little different. You won't hurt my feelings if you see something wrong or out of place! *** ***What follows is a condensed part of chapter 1. Enjoy!*** Drew Cooper is thrust into a new, unfamiliar world. Waking up in his sweats and t-shirt near what seems to be a forgotten path through some woods, he struggles coming to terms that he's no longer in his apartment. As he tries to cope with his new reality, he hears a horse coming down the path. He hides behind a nearby tree dreading what may happen next. As the horse approaches, he sees a man walking next to it. The horse is burdened with packs and gear. When the man nears, Drew nearly panics. He has a large sword strapped to his waist, obviously a fighter. He continues to hide as the man slowly passes only for the man to stop a dozen meters past his hiding spot. "You may as well come out, ya know. You weren't as well hidden as you thought," the man stated matter-of-factly, letting the horse’s reins go and putting his hand on the hilt of his sword. Slowly and scared for his life, Drew raised up and walked from behind the tree. "I-I'm sorry. I wasn't planning on attacking you. I-I don't know where I am. I heard your horse and hid. I didn't know what you'd do if you saw me. I'm sorry," he nervously blurted out. A minute passed. Then two. The man seemed interested with Drew and stepped closer, eyes squinting as if trying to see something. "What's that on your shirt? Is that. What is that? Is that, Pac-man?" The man was visibly shaken while pointing at me. Looking down at his t-shirt nervously, "Yea. Yea. I woke up here a few hours ago I think. 3 maybe 4 hours. I’ve just been sitting here. Where am I? What's going on?" Drew asked. "That's not important right now," the man replied. " What's important is where you're from. What year is it?" "What year? April something 2020. Why? What's going on?" Drew continued now worried. The man was taken aback. After a few moments, he seemed to calm himself some. The man sighed and looked at Drew in earnest. "Well, I've got good news and bad news for ya. Bad news is you're not on Earth anymore. Good news is you happened to run into me and not someone else. You’re either really lucky, or it’s fate we met in these woods, and I don’t believe in luck." The man continued to walk towards Drew while talking and put out his hand. "I'm John Mitchell from St. Louis or thereabouts. You’ve got nothing to be scared of by me. Walk with me and let’s talk."

My father scolds me sharply. I flinch at the anger in his voice and quickly retract my hand, inches from the trunk of the tree. "Sorry father, I couldn't help it. The trees are just so beautiful," I whine turning towards him. His face softens slightly and he scoops me up into his muscled arms. I wrap my small arms around his neck and bury my face into his shoulder. He hugs me tightly and carries me away from the forest. "Why can't we go into the forest?" I ask, looking over his shoulder to see the red and gold leaves slowly disappear from view as we climb the hill. "The forest is a dangerous place," he sighs. "How can something so beautiful be so dangerous?" I mutter in confusion. "The danger is in its beauty."**Cover by SodaliteSilver**
