《The Legend of The Grandmaster》Chapter 7
Advertisement
After sending the children back, he went to buy herbs and spices for themselves. Yu Xiaogang knew the importance of a good foundation for the spirit-masters at a young age. Although they are living in a small village, he is confident that his daughter's foundation will not lose out to the heirs of the big clans. He has inherited several techniques from his previous memories, but they are not suitable because of her current physique.
Yu Xiaogang and Yu Yan walked back to their house as the sun was setting. He told her to wash her hands and eat while he entered the kitchen and cooked a light meal for both of them.
Yu Xiaogang prepared the medicinal bath for her directly after eating the meal. Subsequently, he returned to his room and slept. Very particular to his daily routine Yu Xiaogang woke up early, bathed, and prepared breakfast. Today he did not go to wake her up and ate his food and left the house.
Yu Xiaogang released his second martial spirit, and an ordinary-looking black spear rested in his right hand. He started practicing the most basic spear move, "straight thrust," with his martial spirit by holding it with both hands.
" It seems that this is not the ultimate form of my spear. "
With a confused look, Yu Xiaogang muttered to himself after he stopped practicing with the spear. He felt that his spear would unseal in the future.
Even being sealed, his spear weighed nearly 10,000 kg, and the weight will only increase after adding the spirit ring. Yu Xiaogang cleared his head and focused back on his training. He trained with his martial spirit instead of the wooden pole.
Yu Xiaogang actively released the weight of the spear and increased it to 1,000 kg and started thrusting with the spear with his left hand. He shoved the spear in an orderly method and repeated this action for 2,000 times and again did the same with his other hand.

Although it was not a difficult task with his current physical fitness, yet his breathing was a bit disorderly. Yu Xiaogang frowned as he was not satisfied with the result and thought to increase the control over his physical strength. He continued to practice the same action while holding the spear with both of his hands and keeping his breathing steady.
After completing the daily training, Yu Xiaogang returned to the house. He frowned slightly as little Yan was still sleeping after entering the house. Although he was not satisfied with her behavior, yet Yu Xiaogang did not wake her up and continued towards his room to take a bath.
Yu Xiaogang ate fruits and thought of the content he would teach the children today. He sighed and decided to impart them with the basics of martial spirit, spirit rings, and many other concepts. As he was thinking of the easiest way to teach the brats, he saw the little girl coming out of her room and walking towards him.
Yu Yan saw her father staring at her and lowered her head as if she had made a mistake.
" Yan'er, you must wake up on time from tomorrow. Otherwise, I will be angry. " Yu Xiaogang told after seeing her pitiful face. His expression eased a bit after seeing her nodding in agreement; told her to freshen up as he went to heat the food for her. She returned quickly and ate food. He then took her to the village with him and greeted Old jack and asked him to bring the children early today for the class. He then proceeded towards the park and sat down under the shade of a tree.
Yu Xiaogang told Yu Yan to run twenty laps around the field before the other children arrive. The garden had twice the area as their house, and it took her an hour to complete the task.

" Father, I completed it. " Yu Yan said as she walked and sat near him. Yu Xiaogang was a little surprised as he looked at the heavily breathing girl in front of him. He thought that 15 laps were her limit, but she surpassed his expectations and completed it.
" After some time. "
" Teacher! "
Yu Xiaogang heard a few childish voices and opened his eyes to greet them. He saw Old Jack and the excited little brats walking towards him. He slightly nodded at Old Jack's direction and told the children to sit on the ground, and he sat in front of them.
Yu Xiaogang memorized their names in the previous class. Di Chun sat to his extreme right, and Zhao Chao sat beside Di Chun. Li Chen sat in the center, and Li Mei, his sister, sat beside him. Yu Yan sat to Yu Xiaogang's extreme left beside's Li Mei. He began explaining martial spirits to the children because they might awaken one the next year.
" Martial soul/spirit is the part of our soul that we manifest. The majority of the population is not able to awaken their martial soul and can not become a spirit-master. The martial soul is awakened at the Spirit Awakening Ceremony at the age of six. All of you will go through this ceremony next year. "
Yu Xiaogang explained this to them and waited for a few moments before continuing.
" There are three types of Martial souls known to us presently; the tool spirits, beast spirits, and body spirits. Tool spirits are the most common awakened spirit, and they have different uses and forms, ranging from farm tools to weaponry to gems.
Beast spirits are more suited for combat and can be any animal. These spirits are rare than the Tool martial souls. When possessed by the beast spirit-masters, will change their physical appearance.
Body Spirits are the rarest of the three; it can be any part of a person's body and enhances the body part after activating it. "
Yu Xiaogang stopped speaking and looked at his students and gave them time to memorize the knowledge he imparted.
" Pay attention I will show you both the tool spirit and the beast spirit. "
As Yu Xiaogang spoke, everyone looked at him attentively. He was satisfied after looking at their action and summoned his second martial spirit, and a black spear appeared in his right hand.
Everyone looked curiously at the spear in his right hand and immediately remembered his words on " Tool Spirits. " Yu Xiaogang took back the spear with a single thought and activated his first martial soul.
Roar!
The children heard a dragon's roar and saw an illusionary dragon hovering above Yu Xiaogang.
" Martial soul possession. " Yu Xiaogang said loudly, and the black dragon merged with him. A pair of black horns and wings grew on his forehead and his back. The children's eyes shined and started asking him all sorts of questions.
Yu Xiaogang canceled the possession and reverted to his normal form. He tried to answer all of their questions while keeping the answers as simple as he could. He ended the theory part and started the next lesson.
Yu Xiaogang told them to run 15 laps around the park and rest for the next half hour after completing the laps and to repeat it twice. The children started running, and little Yan was the first one to complete the task while Li Mei was the last. After the class, he sent them back to their houses.

With war brewing on the horizon, Silas' plan to become a hero clashes with the harsh reality of conflict. Torn between contradicting emotions, he will have to reconsider his perceptions of both good and evil. Does the end truly never justify the means? Note from author (13.09.20): Sentences have been shortened, less commata used. Paragraphs have been split up. Meant to be "realistic" fantasy, with no overpowered protagonist or evil sorcerer trying to destroy the world. The focus lies on the characters, their progressions and their inner conflicts, coupled with an intricate magic system. Constructive criticism is highly appreciated!

Tales of the Willful Autonomous Nanobot Generator
Due to over-engineering and poor parenting; a nanobot generator is sent into the wider universe, ready to solve any and all problems...though probably not the way that was intended, or even hoped for. This story is a first time attempt to use a literary device I came up with, where I use 4 randomly selected songs to write short stories. As such there really won't be any cohesive story thread between chapters. If this gets traction, the likelihood for reader polls to influence the next story are high.
