Yi Xiong continued and giving another weapon to Uncle Sih: “Uncle Sih, here is your crossbow and its arrow”
Uncle Sih received the sword and the crossbow and said: “This crossbow looks normal but the arrow is not, is there anything special within it? I know you never made anything normal”
The arrow is not sharp pointed like ordinary arrow but its point is round shape like the side of the barbell
Yi Xiong replied: Hahahaha you know it well, why don’t you try injecting your soul energy into your crossbow and its arrow and shoot it into the my front door over there“
Just when Uncle Sih injecting his energy and shoot the arrow, Yi Xiong grabbed his blacksmith mask and wear it on
Shingggg!! A white bright shining light emits from the crossbow
“Ahhhh!!!” Yi Xiang, Uncle Eh, Uncle Bi and Uncle Sih shout loudly and forcefully closed their eyes
Boom!!
Everyone was surprised what was that sound, how could a crossbow makes that sound
“Ah, the door is gone” Mr Eh said with surprised after opening his eyes
Yi Xiong said while unmask the blacksmith mask: “Hahahaha, Uncle Sih, since you destroyed my door, I hope you can compesate me with more gold to get a new better door”
Uncle Sih replied: “Hahahahaha, don’t worry don’t worry, money is not that important since we started hunting man-sized clam pearl, what important is, what is this crossbow and arrows? How can it be so strong?
Yi Xiong replied with relax: “Flashing Manta Ray tail that I asked from you earlier has a property that can shine upon danger, so it is normal for your Flashing Manta Crossbow to be able to shine like that, as for the arrow. This is iron sardine arrow, by injecting soul energy into the arrow, it can strengthen the iron sardine arrow speed upon launching from the crossbow, as for the impact, iron sardine body is quite tough, that is why wood made property like my doors can easily be destroyed by it”
Uncle Sih replied: “So that’s how it it, how many arrows were you able to make?”
Yi Xiong: “ You gave me 100 kgs of iron sardine last month, so I can make 100 piece of arrows for you, thanks to that, I always eat sardine meat from breakfast, lunch and dinner”

Everyone laugh and they are extremely happy with their weapon
Uncle Eh continued: “ So, how much shall we pay you for all this awesome weapon Yi Xiong?”
Yi Xiong: “ 49 piece gold, but since you destroyed my door, 50 piece gold will be enough. You know I don’t make anything cheap”
Uncle Eh, Uncle Bi, Uncle Sih all laugh and they took out the money from their spatial ring and give to Yi Xiong
Uncle Eh said to Yi Xiang: “Yi Xiang, since your father allow you to hunt with us, tomorrow night we will go and hunt man-sized clam pearl, are you joining us?
Yi Xiang looked at his father
Yi Xiong nod as he is giving a green light to his son to join the hunt
Yi Xiang replied to Uncle Eh: “Uncle Eh, Uncle Bi and Uncle Sih, tomorrow I will be ready and I will try my best not to burden the hunt progress”
Uncle Bi replied “Hahahaha with all this weapon that your father made, the hunt will be a piece of cake, you should bring your weapon too tomorrow so you can defend yourself”
Yi Xiang replied “ Okay Uncle”
After that Uncle Eh, Uncle Bi, and Uncle Sih thanking Yi Xiong and left
“Son, what weapon you like to use tomorrow?” Yi xiong said
“Water ghoul is as fast as ordinary human, since I am only Basic rank, I think I will go with this Iron long spear” Yi Xiang said while touching the iron long spear in front of him
He continued: “Although I can use all the weapon type because you told me to try it after you made, but this Iron long spear will give me better range and more time to defense or evade the enemy attack”
Yi Xiong : “ Since you choose it, so be it. Tomorrow is the day, today, help me and mom on today house work, tomorrow you can live your life to the fullest hahahaha”
The next day
Yi Xiong is practising his spear mastery, although he can use all weapon type but he only has the basic of attack, defense, parry without any profound arts.
There is a woman coming in, she middle aged woman with long hair and she has really oriental faced chinese, she looks very gentle and from her face, it is easy to tell that she is very caring and said “Yi Xiang, tonight you are going to hunt for the first time, do not do reckless thing okay, those 3 uncles are strong but you need to take care of yourself too”

Yi Xiang replied: “Yes Mom, do not worry, I read many bestiary books, so I know water ghoul moves and behaviour”
The night has come
Uncle Eh, Uncle Bi, and Uncle Sih is ready at the pier and waiting for Yi Xiang as they are ready to go into the fishing boat
“Sorry for the being a bit late Uncles, My mom is kinda unease letting me go” Yi Xiang said
Uncle Eh: “Ah, I guess it is normal for Ye Ling to be unease because his only son is now taking a first step becoming a world class hunter hahahaha”
Uncle Bi replied: “True that, its almost time, lets go everyone”
Yi Xiang and three uncles board in the ship and their boat starts going north-east
On the boat, Yi xiang ask: “ Uncle Eh, besides Water ghoul, is there any other monster or creature that we need to be aware of?”
Uncle Eh replied: “It depends on the island we go, this time we go at north-east of our Iron Fishing island, from what we scout previously, this island also has several Iron ranked beast and also several notable Steel ranked beast such as Giant Poison Dart Frog, Big Tarantula, and Big Black Sea Turtle”
“Oh Giant Poison Dart Frog and Big Black Sea Turtle are also there?” Yi Xiang replied with excitement
“Yes, Uncle Sih should remember the location that he met with those two beasts, why do you feel excited upon hearing them?” Uncle Eh replied
Yi Xiang replied: “My father told me to gather Giant Poison Dart Frog and Big Black Sea Turtle corpse that is why he gave this spatial ring so he can make a weapon for me before going to Night Moon city next month, he told me to ask for three uncles here to help me finding it”
Uncle Bi replied: “Hahahaha, Do not worry, we will help you find and slay those two beasts so your father can forge you an awesome weapon so you will not get bullied in Night Moon city academy”
Uncle Sih said: “I remember the spot where I see those two beast, after we get the pearl from man-sized clam pearl, we will help you hunt the remaining beast you want. Since it has been put that way, guess we will not return tonight and we will stay on that island for a while”
Uncle Eh and Uncle Bi nod, Yi xiang said: “ Thanks all uncle, I will definitely remember your kindness on helping my development today”
Uncle Eh replied: “Hahahaha, so Yi Xiang, what is your attribute talent? Is it agility? Strength? Vitality?
Yi Xiang shook his head and replied: “No Uncle, my dad said I am a balanced type, how about the three uncles over here?”
Uncle Bi replied: “Uncle Eh is also balanced type, I am a Strength type that is why Greatsword really suits me and Uncle Sih is Agility type”
Uncle Sih continued: “Oh you are balanced type? You should be patient then, although your power and stamina is not as strong as Strength attribute talent, your speed and vision not as good as Agility type, your defense and resistance is not as tough as Defense attributes talents. When you achieve Steel ranked expert, as long as you can absord a better spirit beast than others, you can surpass them.”
Yi Xiang replied in shock: “Absorb a spirit beast, I read it in a book but I never see it with my own eyes”
Uncle Eh: “Iron Fishing Village is a small village, no wonder you never see it, once you go to Night Moon city, you will see plenty of it hahahaha”
Yi Xiang continues to ask while the boat is moving at constant speed: “May I know what level is the cultivation rank for all the uncles here?”
Uncle Sih replied: “Uncle Eh is at Iron rank level 10, he is half step into Steel rank, Uncle Bi is at Iron rank level 8, and I am at Iron rank level 7”
Uncle Bi continued: “Everyone, we have arrived, lets start hunting”

Renewal and Rebirth
[participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] Interstellar travel. Life extension medicines. Advanced AI's All of these meant nothing to Jayden, she had been born too soon, her body unable to process the new technology. She was approaching the end of her life and had a choice to make. Deep Dive VR had progressed and real digitization and uploading was now an option for those unable to use life-extension treatments. For all the science the Human race had developed, Jayden was forced to take a different path. She would be digitized and explore a new world. One where cultivation and dinosaurs blended together. [Participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 International License. For those unfamiliar with my writing style, Second Chances was my first attempt at writing. I'm not sure how much I learned in the process, except that readers get angry when you mess with characters they like! Warnings - I tend to info dump. I know I do this, I like slice of life novels that take time to unfold. So don't expect action, murder, and battles in every chapter, it isn't going to happen I prefer the first-person narrative. I will do an occasional POV shift, but it will never be done mid-chapter. I hope you enjoy the story, comments, ratings, and favorites are greatly appreciated!
8 283Is Lucas Destined to Die in the New World?
Lucas imagined himself doing grander things in life; after all, he put in his own blood, sweat, and tears, and got himself a master's degree in English. Maybe he'd be the next best-selling author, or maybe the most popular late night TV show host. However, life didn't give him anything more than a management position at the local burger joint. Day in and day out, he flipped burgers, swept floors, and made weekly schedules that his employees ignored. All he had known for the past five years of his life was pure misery. Then after one night of drunken revelry, he found himself in an unfamiliar world, but he knew all the gimmicks. He knew these stories had quirks he could manipulate- he could put all his stats into magic and become the best wizard in the world, or he could dump all his stats into strength and become a veritable warrior. But once again, just like Earth, this new world seemed to have different plans for him. Instead, he was given a luck stat of 0 and a skill that forced him into danger where there should have been none. Why is this nerdy, magical paradise trying to kill him? Content warnings are there to give me some creative legroom later. There's not an excess of any gruesome content in the story, and what is there is tastefully sprinkled in. This is a LitRPG. Updates are twice a week on Mon/Fri plus some extras here and there.
8 103The Dog with a Chair
As of now, this story is dropped. It was an excellent learning experience, but the quality suffered too much from me trying new things for me to continue in good concience. Thanks to anyone that read it. I'm leaving this story up as a record of my first ever attempt at publishing something I've wrote. To any new writers out there, remember that even if the stuff you write is trash, you can still learn a lot from writing it. - November 17th 2020 Guy gets involved in advocacy for civil engineering projects, then gets pulled into an interdimensional war. Third person with a focus on one main character (Stanley) with the occasional point of view from another character important to story progression. Writing style tends to shift early on as I figure out how to write (this is my first book). Still learning, hoping to improve. Current style choice is to have a focus on character dialogue/actions with interspersed internal monologue in italics. No current end is set for the story, with the primary goal of this project being to learn to express myself in a written format. Storyline is kept as consistent as practical while covering things I find interesting. Governmental systems are mentioned, but not explained in extreme detail. Sci fi elements are used to reinforce and guide plot progression as I'm able. Personal goals belonging to each character are in the process of being developed, with the hope that they will support or oppose each other in interesting ways later on. Hope you enjoy :)
8 160My Roleplay Server
Given the chance to reincarnate in a world with two wishes, who would say no? Especially when you could live a life you've always wanted. This is supposed to be a relaxed story about a man fulfilling the dreams he couldn't in his first life. There will still be drama and more adult things, but overall it will be pretty chill. The action of the story will come in when he finishes making the server. As of right now, 4/6/2022, it's looking like this is going to be a slower-paced novel. Hopefully, in the future, I can get the pacing downright. This is my first released story, so feel free to give me all your constructive criticism. I do plan on finishing this story. Please point out any mistakes you see. This novel is also on Webnovel and Scribble Hub.
8 223A Cultivation Journey
A story of reincarnator...maybe a transmigrator?... with the strongest cultivation manual which is somehow underpowered given it's standard. This is his story in a land of cultivation filled with unknown possibilities.
