《The Legend of The Grandmaster》Chapter 8
Advertisement
" Six months passed in this style. "
Today Yu Xiaogang and little Yan were eating steamed meat buns and a dish made of vegetables. It has been six months since they came to the village, and he experienced a satisfying life in the past few months.
Yu Xiaogang trained with his spear for the last six months. Although he didn't make a breakthrough, his spear handling became more refined. He increased the weight of the spear and finally adapted to all of its weight.
Yu Xiaogang imparted all of the knowledge related to the spirit beasts, spirit rings, and even discussed a few topics related to the two empires and the spirit hall. He taught them all they could learn.
Yu Xiaogang did not practice today. Instead, he spent with little Yan and felt very peaceful after spending time with her. After a while, he laid down under the shade of a tree outside the house.
After napping for a while, Yu Xiaogang stood up and summoned his martial soul. The black spear appeared in his hands, and he gently swept the spear and felt like the spear had become one with his arm.
Yu Xiaogang was pleased because he broke through and entered the spear-master realm. The first stage in the spear cultivation according to his previous world. The spear becomes an extension of the arm, and each spear strike is equivalent to an all-out physical attack of Yu Xiaogang.
Yu Xiaogang was excited because he could finally cultivate the foundation spear technique. This technique was the most popular spear technique according to his memories; yet, he felt that not many people could understand the essence of this technique.
The foundation spear method has only one move, i.e., straight thrust with all the strength. It may sound simple, but even after adapting to his spear, Yu Xiaogang could barely thrust thrice with his current strength.

Yu Yan also matured slightly in the last six months. She became more interested in training after learning what he had taught and doubled her training in the last six months.
Yu Xiaogang was gratified with her change, and he saw that simply running would not help exercise her physique anymore and started searching for a physique strengthening technique in his memories.
He found a relatively common body forging method and started writing it in a diary he took out from the soul device. Yu Xiaogang named this technique " Sage physique transformation. " He thought this technique is more suitable for the people in this world.
This technique is divided into three levels, and each level consists of twenty-seven postures. Practicing the first level would increase a person's physique equivalent to a spirit-grandmaster. The second level would raise the physical strength to the peak of a spirit-king, and the third level would raise the physical strength to a rank 80 spirit-sage.
Anyone could cultivate the first level with the help of medicinal baths and consumption of the spirit beast meat for a long period.
Yu Xiaogang intended to give the first level to the children after they successfully awaken their martial souls.
Yu Xiaogang returned to the house and walked straight back to his room. With a single thought, he entered into the space inside the black pearl.
Yu Xiaogang walked towards the divine core and sat cross-legged beneath it. He closed his eyes and meditated for a few minutes to raise his state to the peak.
Yu Xiaogang started absorbing the wisps of energy from the core. The energy moved in his meridians according to the Devouring Codex and entered his dantian.
The spirit energy in his body rapidly increased, and his rank risen from 13 to 20 in no time. He stopped absorbing the energy after reaching rank 20 spirit-master.

Yu Xiaogang used the energy from the divine core to create his second ring. A soul ring started forming above his head, and its color changed from white to black. The second symbol formed on the ring as the age increased to 20,000 years and stopped increasing the age of the ring. He absorbed the spirit ring without any difficulty.
Yu Xiaogang stood up, and two black rings appeared beneath him. The second spirit ring lit up, and a huge dragon's claw materialized above him. His second spirit skill is " Black Dragon's Claw."
Yu Xiaogang's spirit power reached increased after absorbing the ring, and his rank increased to 23 spirit-grandmaster. He exited from the space in the black pearl and returned to his room.
Yu Xiaogang took a bath and walked out of his room. He looked around but didn't find the little girl in the house and saw her sleeping outside under a tree. He went out of the house and picked her up and returned to the house. He gently put her on the bed and covers Yu Yan with the quilt.
Yu Xiaogang left the house and walked towards the village. He met Old Jack on the way and asked him to bring the children early today and walked towards Old Jack's office.
After a few minutes, the door of the office opens, and Old Jack enters with the children. The kids excitedly greet him after they saw Yu Xiaogang sitting inside the office.
" From today, there will be no class. I have already taught you everything there is to be taught. "
Yu Xiaogang said in a calm voice.
Their mood instantly became sullen, and before they could reply, Yu Xiaogang continued that he would call them again after their awakening ceremony.
After the children left, Yu Xiaogang talked with Old Jack and said that he would leave the village tomorrow and go to Nouding city for a few days.
Yu Xiaogang left after chatting with the village chief and returned to his home. He thought that now he could go to the city because his current strength could crush a peak spirit-king and fight against a low-level spirit-emperor.
He entered the kitchen to cook the meal and saw the little girl was trying to cook one herself. He felt amused as he watched her actions and coughed lightly from behind and caught her attention.
He walked over and rubbed her head, told her to sit, and started cooking.

Entangled Fates Book 1 - Quantum Beginnings
“By far, the greatest danger of Artificial Intelligence is that people conclude too early that they understand it.” —Eliezer Yudkowsky Hey all, we're moving over to book 2. This content is in a state of transition. The book is now availble on Amazon (includes extra chapters): https://www.royalroad.com/amazon/B07W1534R8 Artificial intelligence was nearly mankind’s last invention. AI took off like a rocket, then when it racked up an impressive death toll, it crashed before it could blossom and took most high-tech industries with it. Resistance and fears became deep-set. Two decades after the infamous Rev. 4.6 incidents, humanity hasn’t quit dreaming of the wealth and power that could be at their fingertips. A new generation of mega-corporations rose from the ashes. When one melds a quantum computer to a barely functional mental patient as a PR move, there are those who seek to profit, those who want to destroy it, and Alex. Alex Sage is a typical college student trying to keep up his grades and maybe find a meaningful connection with the fairer sex. Then, an automated semi crashes into his home, killing his family and turning his head into a pin cushion in the process. Alex awakens to find most of his memories gone and an illegal AI hidden in his brain implant. Now the pet project of a tech billionaire and heavily in debt, Alex struggles to stay valuable enough to be kept online. Still grappling with the repercussions of his injuries, and threats from a dangerous anti-augmentation political movement, there are no easy answers and threats loom around every corner. Alex must use whatever resources he can to escape from under the thumb of a ruthless corporation, while keeping those he comes to love safe. Chapters will stay up on RRL until Aug 10. It'll go up on Kindle Unlimited after that. How do you get those extra chapters I didn't have planned for RR? If you want them, they'll be in the published book. Book 2 will still make sense without them - I made sure of that. But... isn't $3 a lot for extra chapters? Think of it as tipping me for a good job and you'd also be getting my eternal thanks. If you enjoyed it so much that the idea of missing out a few chapters haunts you, I did my job as an author and made an engaging story. What's in those extra chapters? Resolving a few issues, set up for the cybernetic revolution, a rather intense sex scene with a new partner, revelations of who's really pulling strings, and a bit of set up for book 2. Complaints that people missed out on it when it was published here won't help (sorry!). I posted this for the folks who helped me shape the book, which is you all! (Again, yay!) But... Why! Why not keep it all on RR forever? My editor likes being paid for one. For two, I'd like the ability to get broader readership. If I break even on editor costs, I'll be incredibly happy. What about book 2? Drafts for Book 2 will go up around Sept 10. My draft of Book 2 is done, and it will be handed to the editor once Book 1 is published. Feedback has been even more positive. Beta readers devoured it and wanted more. I'll add a link to Book 2 once it's up on RR. I'm more or less, using you all for Beta Readers, so you get it before it's "canon" and edited. I invite active and meaningful feedback during this process. In return, you get early access to chapters. That does mean that the book content or plot might be adjusted before it gets published as I refine it. Sex Y/N? Yes. I heard the feedback, 90% wanted it explicit. You all will get the "full" experience. Will I dump all of book 2 here? Honestly, I'm not sure yet. At a minimum, it'll be up to the 75% mark as we collect feedback, much like what I did with book 1. It really depends on how good the feedback is and how nice people are. Lots of support + meaningful feedback to make it better = higher likelihood you get all the book. Will be it up here indefinitely? No, it'll probably go up on KU at some point, but I'll make sure there's enough time for a large readership to grab it here. Then we move to book 3 which already is around 60K words already. What about other adventures in the same universe/characters? Yep. Absolutely. Nothing ready to share yet though. I plan to keep those side chapters and more slice of life stories as RR exclusive. Since I'm carving this off in book-sized segments, I'll have to figure out where those disconnected story arcs belong. I'm open to suggestions.

Oracle by Default
Oracles are known as divine handouts passed down from the Holy Creator. There are times when evil exist and the Holy Creator wishes to intervene, to which the title of the Oracle is bestowed upon an individual to become the Creator's will in physical form. The Oracle's mission is to then gather heroes from different races to purge the evil. “For the reckoning that is to come, all are tested. Thou shall be the shadow of which valiant souls shine and guide thee through harsh trials. Till oblivion comes, do not turn astray but to continue down the path thou chosen to walk. Lastly, thou must not see eye to eye with, but against the world.” A mysterious man engraved a seal onto Kihet before saving him from being consumed by the flames. The seal seems to have a strong connection with the legends of the Oracle and a Tower with no entrance that suddenly sprouted near the village. Throughout years, his efforts to study the strange tower remained fruitless. Then one day, the village decided it was time for his friends and him to become envoys to look for the potential evil the Holy Creator detected. Before Kihet can set off on his journey alongside his friends, he has his own set of problems to overcome against the village. Note: It's slow. There is romance, but it plays a small role that I don’t know if I should add it in the tags. Main story starts at Chapter 12. Chapters before do contain meaningful context for the rest of story.
