The Adventures Of The Young Master

Goldenchild wanted to say no. After all, they weren\'t even particularly acquaintances since they just met a while ago and barely talked to each other. However, how could he bring himself to reject it when the other party was arrogant to the bones?

In the end, he had no choice but to come with Jin Rou and just prayed that he wouldn\'t return dead. Teacher Fairy didn\'t bother stopping Jin Rou and just looked at him, deep observation skills were being maneuvered but no matter how hard she tried, she couldn\'t see through him. Eventually, she gave up and went to somewhere as she needed to report what happened here.

And as for Silver Knight? He was livid and remembered Jin Rou\'s face. Sooner or later, he would exact revenge and he\'d promised that Jin Rou would have to beg for his death during that time.

The Dao Sword Academy was separated into two departments. The Knights Department and Blacksmith Department.

In the Blacksmith Department, students were studying how to create swords for the knights and though they weren\'t special battle types, they were very important for the knights. After all, if no blacksmiths create a weapon for them, how could they fight?

In the past, many brilliant blacksmiths were nurtured by the academy and eventually became known and successful ones that even Dao Monarchs and Imperial Lords sought for. One example was Ravenray Blacksmith. Of all the genius blacksmiths existed in the world, Ravenray was one the very few people who stood at the apex of blacksmithing. He was one of the legendary people who created a Nine Heavens Treasure, the Soul Devourer.

The Soul Devourer was a heavenly sword that couldn\'t buy even if you have money. It was said that Ain Dao Monarch managed to get this sword through Ravenray\'s grand auction held in a very private place that only peak existences could attend. After having the sword, Ain Dao Monarch went for the 5th Expedition with him as the leader of the group.

After Ravenray created this sword, he was never seen again up to now. Many assumed that he\'d already died since it\'s been so long now but it was different for those who could see better and higher.

Right now, Jin Rou was looking at the big statue of a familiar face. It was Ravenray and it was a tribute for him by the academy after helping them overcome a tribulation in the distant past. The statue had a normal robe that you could purchase anywhere with a bit of money. Holding a book, he looked like a scholar that would challenge the Heaven\'s knowledge.

This person was Han Li\'s student and although it was true that the academy nurtured him, the bigger part of the reason why Ravenray was successful was because of Han Li\'s tutelage. Jin Rou couldn\'t help but become emotional. After all, he inherited everything about Han Li so although his soul didn\'t have something to do with Ravenray, he had Han Li\'s body and everything including the bottled emotions he hid to pursue his arduous path.

Goldenchild wanted to ask something as he noticed the strange and warm gaze Jin Rou was giving the statue. For him, it felt like Jin Rou was looking at a child he took care of. Nevertheless, he dismissed this thought as it was impossible. Jin Rou was very young, how could he have a child in that age?

"Hello, Fellow Students. May I request you humbly to step aside?" Then suddenly, three figures appeared and approached Jin Rou and Goldenchild. They were all wearing black robes meaning they were student blacksmiths, "Our Young Master wants to try his luck in getting the sword Master Ravenray is holding."

The appearance of this young master caused a great commotion and immediately became packed with people.

"It\'s Young Master Lux, the direct descendant of Old Yuan Blacksmith!" Everyone was surprised. Young Master Lux rarely show his face in the public yet here he was now, "Is he determined and confident in getting the sword now?"

"If he could get the sword, he will be now the First Student Blacksmith of the academy and Master Yuan will be very happy!" A fan boy said.

The academy set a rule that if a blacksmith student of theirs managed to grab the sword Ravenray\'s statue was holding, they would immediately had the highest blacksmith student title, the First Student Blacksmith. Being one would have tons of privileges including being taught by the best blacksmith the academy had, Lioness Blacksmith!

Of course, Goldenchild also knew this young master and the latter had a higher status than him so he helplessly nudged Jin Rou and said, "Let\'s leave. Young Master Lux wants to try his luck."

"So?" Jin Rou looked at the newcomers and said filled with arrogance, "Tell them to shoo away and wait until I want to leave."

Everyone who heard this was speechless. Some words were supposed to be said but they chocked on it. They were looking at Jin Rou like he was a jumping clown who didn\'t know any better.

Young Master Lux\'s expression turned dark. They were asking nicely yet they were berated like that. In the first place, who was this lad to speak like this in front of him?

"Are you asking for death?" One of the young master\'s friends were angered. In the academy, Young Master Lux was respected and adored by many students and teachers. How could this mere mortal stranger do this?

The crowd also had a negative response for Jin Rou. They kept on speaking malicious and cursing words against Jin Rou.

"Fellow Student, I am called Lux. Pardon my friend\'s words here, but would you mind if I do my business? I am really eager to try my luck." This time, it was Young Master Lux who approached. He was speaking amicably like he wasn\'t affected by the taunt a while ago.

Jin Rou looked at Young Master Lux and shook his head, "You are talented, indeed. However, you are still too young to pull the sword. Wait at least several years."

Hearing these words, Young Master Lux revealed a stumped expression.
