《The Legend of The Grandmaster》Chapter 27
Advertisement
As a little child, Yu Yan wished to walk around in such a magnificent city, yet Little Yan showed more intelligence and maturity as compared with other children of the same age.
After entering the city, she stood quietly and repeatedly glanced at her father as both of them stood on the side of the road.
Yu Xiaogang had stopped walking after entering the city, and his body froze as he looked at the person coming over from the other end of the street. A monstrous killing intent flashed in his eyes, Yu Xiaogang immediately concealed it, and even Little Yan, who was repeatedly looking at her father, couldn't find any change in his facial expression.
Yu Xiaogang saw Yu Luomian walking with a group of Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan members behind him. Although he did not have any evidence, still Yu Xiaogang felt that the man in front of him was responsible or at least played a major role in the conspiracy against him.
He took a deep breath, regained his composure, and looked at the little girl standing beside him, " Yan'er, let's go to meet your mother. "
Yu Yan's face showed a beautiful smile as she nodded, " Un! "
Yu Xiaogang increased his hand's grip and firmly held her hand as they began walking; within a few moments, they and Yu Loumian's group passed by each other without the latter recognizing that it was Yu Xiaogang, who had crossed by just now.
Yu Luomian, who was going back to the clan, suddenly felt his chest tighten for a moment, yet he shook his head did not think much about it. As a rank 95 super douluo, not many people on the continent could threaten him and not to mention that he was still the second master of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan.
On the other hand, although Yu Xiaogang did not visit the Blue Tyrant academy before, yet Yu Xiaogang smoothly crossed the streets and made a beeline towards the academy as if he was a regular visitor.

After walking for a few minutes, both of them stopped in front of the entrance of the academy. Yu Xiaogang looked at the huge gate carved out of white marble and the Blue Tyrant Advanced Spirit Master Academy in golden characters written on the plaque on the top of the gate.
There was only a single thought in his mind after looking at the academy, " How much did Erlong have to suffer to build such an academy. " Yu Xiaogang's felt his mind stagnant after the thought of how much pain he had caused to the latter.
Although Yu Yan did could not understand Yu Xiaogang's thoughts, yet she could see that her father was in pain. The little girl stretched out her little hand and tried to pat his back as if she was trying to comfort him.
Yu Xiaogang, who was absorbed in his own emotions, snapped out of it after feeling a pat on his back and saw the little girl who was acting like an adult trying to comfort him.
He forgot all of the guilt and pain in his heart, and Yu Xiaogang stretched his hand and pinched her cheek while saying, " Yan'er, you even dare to tease me? "
Yu Yan couldn't escape and said, " Ah! Forgive me, father. " Yu Xiaogang, who pretended to be angry, also stopped pinching her cheeks and smiled while thinking, " My Yan'er is really the most sensible child. "
This small gesture on Little Yan's part had stabilized his fluctuating mood, and Yu Xiaogang stepped into the academy with a smile on his face.
After entering the academy, both of them went to the recruitment office beside the gate of the academy. Yu Xiaogang knew that he could not meet Liu Erlong directly and had to follow the procedures of the academy; this place was precisely to receive the guest of the academy.
There was no recruitment of the teachers nor the enrolment period for the new students, which made it easy for Yu Xiaogang as he did not have to wait in line. As they entered the room, Yu Xiaogang saw a forty-fifty-year-old man sitting behind the desk.

" Cough!"
Yu Xiaogang coughed lightly after seeing that the other person had not noticed their arrival. The recruitment teacher was startled after hearing the cough and immediately looked at the visitors in front of him.
Yu Xiaogang did not wish to waste any more time; he directly stated his purpose, " I want to meet your dean, tell her I wish to let my daughter become her disciple. "
Although the person was a little upset with Yu Xiaogang's tone, yet he resisted his urge to curse the latter and asked, " Mister, How old is your daughter, and what is her martial spirit? "
Yu Xiaogang keenly noticed the impatience in his voice, and his tone also cooled down a little, " Yu Yan is six years old and is born with " Innate Full Spirit Power. " "
Latter's face changed from the initial impatience to surprise and shock after hearing Yu Xiaogang. He asked both of them to wait and hastily rushed out of the office. After a while, The man returned with another teacher from the academy with him.
The second person stepped forward and said, " I am Yin Shu, rank 51 battle type spirit master. " He stated his rank mainly for intimidating Yu Xiaogang and showing the sincerity of the academy.
How could Yu Xiaogang not understand Yin Shu's careful thoughts? He also released his spirit-energy, and Yin Shu felt a suffocating pressure descending on his body.
Yin Shu started operating his spirit-energy to counter the pressure, but how could his impure spirit-energy counter Yu Xiaogang's thick and pure spirit-energy. One has to know that Yu Xiaogang had crushed a spirit-sage not long ago, so how could he care about a trifling spirit-king.
Yin Shu, who felt the pressure increasing, couldn't help but look towards Yu Yan and the recruitment teacher and saw that both of them did not feel even an ounce of pressure.
A lot of thoughts emerged in his mind after seeing the carefree attitude of the other two people, and beads of sweat began to form on his forehead as his legs started shaking under the ever-increasing tremendous pressure. Yin Shu had figured out that the other party was way stronger than him, and his previous actions had clearly displeased the other party.
Yu Xiaogang snorted after looking at the latter's situation and took back his spirit-energy. Yin Shu, who was about to cry, couldn't help but feel grateful to the other party for retracting his spirit-energy.
The other people had confused looks on their faces as they did not know what had happened, and before both of them could ask, Yin Shu, with his trembling body, stood up and said, " Thank you, senior, for forgiving me. "
Yu Xiaogang nodded indifferently and again asked, " Can we go now and meet the dean? " This time, Yin Shu nodded like a chicken and asked them to follow him as the three of them stepped out of the recruitment office.
Yu Xiaogang and Yu Yan followed Yin Shu on the path leading towards the core of the academy. As they walked inside, there was a forest on each side of the road. After walking for a few moments, Yu Xiaogang and Yu yan saw three big buildings at the end of the path.
Yin Shu not at all walked towards the buildings; instead, he stepped towards a narrow path beside the buildings and entered the forest surrounding the campus.
Yu Xiaogang looked a little surprised as they entered the forest, yet the scenery felt familiar to him. The narrow path was filled decorated with different flowers.
He finally remembered why did this scenery felt familiar to him; he had seen it decades ago on the day of his marriage.

Touch
Touch is a story about a boy named James, and his friends: a group of young, superpowered people brought together by trauma; all trying, in their own ways, to come to terms with what that trauma means to them and who they want to be in response to it. This is a learning process, and mistakes are made, but they grow, learn, and adapt to these difficulties in ways that some might say only young people can. While it may look it at first, this is not intended as a sad story, merely an honest one. I wanted to make the characters human, and unfortunately, that means that difficulties hit them in very real ways through the story, but then again, they have some equally human moments of warmth between one another as they grow. Triggers: Explores the aftereffects and recovery process of sexual abuse, and some other forms of physical abuse. I like to think I avoided making it edgy, but you deserve to be informed. Some readers have told me that it can feel a bit too real at times. A bit too honest. If you like what you read, feel free to comment or review. I like the feedback.

8 155Shadow Emperor
This is one of my side projects. It is about a young innocent boy, who has some mishap happening at the date of his birth. Through circumstances he is forced to strenghten himself. His fate was decided long ago, and this story is just the journey to his fate. It is very xianxia/xuanhuan-esque, with some Western elements mixed in. It is a cultivation novel, and it will have gore, sexual depictions, but to an extent. Most of the time it is either fun or exciting, as you will see an innocent boy's rise to the Emperor of the Shadows..
8 92Campaign: A Project Starfarer Sidestory
This novel’s lore, story and characters are entirely fictitious. Certain long-standing countries, institutions, organizations, agencies, and public offices are mentioned, but their histories and the characters involved are wholly imaginary. "What will you do with your freedom?"Growing up in a meritocracy, infamous for being lawless, Jordan Astros had been repeatedly asked this question, since times unmemorable. In a society where one's accomplishments and skills were tallied and ranked in order to determine one's standard of living however, Jordan quickly grew to understand that 'freedom,' was a reward earned by accumulating Merit. And so, after his 17th birthday, Jordan departed his Clan's habitat in orbit of Europa to embark on his century-long journey to rise from E-Ranker to S-Rank. And spread his name throughout the Galilean Powers. *** Campaign is a sidestory within its NanoPunk parent series, Project Starfarer. (Yet to be published. Be on the lookout for it!) In which the first transhuman known to humanity, the Starfarer, invokes a plan to seed terrestrial life throughout the galaxy. Campaign takes place around the middle of that timeline and explores the life of a key figure in that universe, Jordan Astros. And explores one of four great nations thriving in the Solar System during that time. A Meritocracy that spans Jupiter and its 79 moons, The Galilean Powers. What you'll find in Campaign: Brutal melee combat in airless and pressurized low gravity environments. A technology based progression system influenced by merit and accomplishments; using tech that's theoretically possible to exist in the near-future. An exploratory perspective of the dozens of Galilean societies, or 'Powers,' from Jordans; and sometimes others', POV. What you wont find: Romance. Harems. An MC who receives shortcuts, handouts, learns things unnaturally fast or has OP plot armor. Jordan is not a special individual. Jordan is not OP and he likely never will be. He's no different than any other citizen in the Galilean Powers and will certainly face as many defeats as he does wins. He'll suffer losses and grow as an individual, while the Powers evolves around him as well. This is semi-hard sci-fi/NanoPunk and takes place in a fictional version of our future solar system. Centered around technology that's plausible in the near-centuries to come. Everything abides by the laws of physics/thermodynamics (As best that I understand them, at least. I'm no scientist.) No artificial gravity, inertial dampeners, teleportation, FTL, or hand-wavy materials will be found in the Project Starfarer universe. Just advanced automation, nanotechnology, cybernetics and AI. Set in the backdrop of space. *I do not own the photo used for the cover*
