Chapter 1127

(Unedited)

…

Over the past few years, Xin Ja has already found a lot of mysterious items in the forest. And he has used a lot of them, mostly he could not use, just like the things that he got from that dragon statue. So in time, he has developed a habit of just collecting them.

As of this moment, he fully enjoys what he creates with his own hands rather than the things he gets from others… though not everything is useless, just like his ring and the black pearl.

Creating things that he could use for himself and others seems like things that can make Xin Ja feel happy. He has been feeling like this for a long time now and now he is fully enjoying such benefit for himself.

As he cruises through the rough road he would pass by some of the travelers on the road who would be startled and look at him with dumbfounded expressions in their eyes. Their gawking jaws made Xin Ja feel elated as his young heart is proud of what he has made.

He soon stopped on a small campsite upon noticing a few travelers stopping in that place. He is hoping that the Ogden Academy would be in that area.

He has been traveling for a long time since that morning plus his speed is not that low, so he is sure that the students would be in this place.

And true to his expectation, he saw the caravan of the Ogden academy. As of this moment, Coach An Taining is scolding a few students with a loud tone.

"It was your responsibility to make sure that everyone is on the carriage! Why? Why did you say that everyone is present when Xin Ja was actually not with you!" shouted Coach An while scolding the senior student in front of her.

The students did not reply, and just lowers their gaze. But if one could look closer one could notice the sneer on their mouths and their sinister gaze on the ground.

Xin Ja who is watching this scene was a bit dumbfounded. He did not know why these students are dead serious about getting rid of him. It was like they have a deep hatred and grudge against him.

Xin Ja is not some saint who will let these fellows go. But he also could not let Coach An and Senior Yao be worried for him. So he suddenly walks out of the crowd and then to the group.

"Coach!" he called.

When the people heard his words, they all showed astonishment in their eyes as they saw him arriving without a wound or anything on his body. Coach An was too worried to think of anything else and just grab Xin Ja's shoulders and nodded her head.

"Little Ja…" Yao Mai Lin almost has teary eyes while looking at him arriving safely.

"Senior… Coach… I'm fine, I just fell asleep…" he said with a smile.

"You… you little brat!" Coach An scolded but did not say anything else.

From that time forth in the travel, Senior Yao would always check on Xin Ja on every occasion. She would not let her guard down from that time forth. How could she let this little guy suffer from any animosity from the rest of her teammates?

However, because she did this, she did not know that the sinister gaze of someone is already deep-rooted at Xin Ja… it was to the point that killing intent could already be felt. But of course, Xin Ja ignored this as no matter what, that person won't be able to do anything while Yao Mei Lin is beside him.

And so… the boring travel once again resumes making Xin Ja wished he could have spent more of his time riding his bike which is more fun.

Xuanlong also became bored and began exploring the forest on its own. Every now and then it would bring some kind of ore or medicinal plant to Xin Ja. This made him feel that this little guy is a natural treasure hunter.

Well, how could he not be? According to legends, most dragons are attracted to treasures easily. They seem to be able to feel or spot it even from the skies. And for this reason, most vaults or hiding spots are aligned with rune arrays to protect them from the prying eyes of the dragons.

And so the long journey has finally stopped as the caravan arrives in front of a large town's gate.

Along the way to the entrance of the town of Yanzing, the students noticed a lot of shops on the roadside. Though the town of Yanzing is not any different from the town of Ogden, it still looks like a new place for the students who have not traveled before.

Except for the seniors, all the new members and those that have not joined any War Games before are excitedly looking everywhere from the window of their carriages.

The caravan soon arrives in front of a school gate that looks like a tall stone arch. Behind the stone, the arch is a long pathway going up a mountain.

"Everyone! This is the entrance of the Skymountain School, I hope that you all behave and not do your usual tricks in Ogden academy in this place. Remember, we are just guests in this place act appropriately…" Coach An said with a stern look on her face.

Everyone nodded their heads in agreement.

It did not take long before a figure could be seen gliding down the path.

Soon that figure was able to stand before the group and with a beautiful charming smile greeted everyone.

"I am Xhao Fabing, a senior student of Yanzing Skymountain School… I welcome you all to our school…" She said while gesturing for everyone to take a step forward.

The seniors guided the new members to walk ahead of the group following Xhao Fabing.

When Xin Ja was about to take a step forward, he quickly noticed that something is wrong with the pathway.

"What is this? A trap array?" He thought as he dare not take a step forward.

All of a sudden, someone pushes him from behind… so Xin Ja could not help but take a step.

Thump!!!

His heart skips a beat when he could immediately feel a strange restriction surrounding his body.

When he looks ahead of him, he could see that all of the other students seem to be suffering the same fate.

"Hihi… Do not be alarmed… this is our Heaven Seeking path. Those who wanted to enter the school would always pass through the same process. This is to ensure that you guys are not the bad guys…" she explained with a chuckle.

Xin Ja suddenly feels worried at this time and suddenly remembers Xuanlong. If that small thing passes here, would she be checked by the Heaven Seeking path?

Xin Ja immediately prays that the small thing would not go to this place. As of this moment, Xuanlong is away and is currently playing in the town. That small thing looks like a black salamander lizard, so no one would take notice of it. Plus, the small guy is very intelligent so he is a bit at ease upon thinking to this point.

As Xin Ja waited, he soon noticed the restriction slowly becoming weaker. However, he noticed a few fellows walking down the path. These fellows look like students of the same school with their white gowns and robes.

"Hey, Senior Zhao… Are these weak fellows from Ogden town?" one of them jested with a sneer.

"Yes… They are…" Zhao Fabing said with a nod.

"They're too weak… they could not even free themselves from the restriction on their own… Haha… what a bunch of fools…"

"I think they have not seen such array formations before…"

"They truly belong to a border town… What country bumpkins…"

"Look over there… They also bring a kid with them…"

"Haha… He's small and cute though…"

"Hey, hey… no patronizing the enemy…"

"Well, I'm not… I'm just telling the truth, am I right Senior Zhao…" a female student coquettishly grabs Zhao Fabing's hand.

She then looks at Xin Ja and winks at him.

This made Xin Ja blush a little as this is his first-time being winked at by a beautiful young woman.

Suddenly, one of the male students from the Skymountain School lifted his palm and then strike at the student close to him.

This strike sent that student flying away from the path and recovering his movements.

"What a bunch of weaklings…" he said as he looks at the second one.

On the side of the Ogden academy senior and staff, no one said anything.

"Coach…" Yao Mai Lin wanted to say something but Coach An shakes her head and showed a faint smile on her face.

"Let them experience this… it will curve their pride and arrogance." She said while she continues to watch the scene before her.

Suddenly, a student appears before Xin Ja and looks at him with disdain. He then looks at the female student who winks at Xin Ja.

"You dare seduce one of us… Let me teach you a quick lesson then…" he said as he gather a small amount of Ki in his finger and then stretches it towards Xin Ja's chest.
