Chapter 58
"It is the way of life, Maru. The weak perishes while the strong lives on. To use what's available for the sake of surviving and to grab for the limited resources out there with one's own hands, it is the behavior of a true cultivator. Nobody wants to get stepped upon or taken advantage of. This is why we cultivators fight." Fade answered in length and said her beliefs about how this world works.
She remembered her life as an assistant cook and reviewed what she did since becoming a cultivator. Nothing has changed. There were still those above her in status and power. Thus, she continued living and forging her path towards her freedom. And to be free, she needed power. Fade needed to become stronger.
"That's a sad way to live, isn't it? Why do cultivators need to struggle

"Welcome to our humble sect, Your Excellency!" an old man greeted Maru the moment he entered the Vestal Virgin Sect."Welcome, Your Excellency!" the united voice of the mass of peoples behind the old man roared that shook the skies with its ferocity. Combined auras darkened the morning light in an intense show of might. The spiritual forces released out flowed towards the ranges of the walled palace and even beyond."Thank you." Maru briefly said and tried to count the population that gathered in his front. He stopped looking at it after the first five million as the system continued plotting the data of the numerous cultivators before him. What took most of his focus was the gargantuan works of arts that furnished the sect in style. They were akin to the construction of

"Do you want to dance again, Your Excellency?" Yara asked with a lovely smile on her face."Yes, yes. Let's dance again, Yara! HAHAHA!" Maru exclaimed after the one dance they shared. It cannot be called a simple dance. It was more of an expression. A state where nothing mattered but your partner and the singing of the notes around them. It was amazing! Maru was excited about this form of art. Time stood frozen for the duo as they swept the floor with their flowing feet and swaying arms. Up in the air and down below in level with the seated audience, they had roamed entirely undisturbed."HAHAHA! I never knew that dancing was this fun, Yara!" Maru's voice rose above the music that filled the place. The tender slow groove was replaced by the constant rocking of rapid melod

"The City of Antavale is a good city, Your Excellency! But it could not compare to the exquisite cuisine and premium liquors of a sect." Sect Master Caiden safely replied. He did not want to belittle the city of origin of this boy."I know that now, Sect Master Caiden. I also know that drinking is more fun when you share it with someone else." Maru said and smiled at the old man who joined him for a whole day of drinking."It is my job as a good host, Your Excellency!" Sect Master Caiden replied to the boy. He could determine that the seemingly weak and innocent boy before him was indeed a mighty cultivator. Comestibles such as this huge divine animal served in the table left of them would need at least a Human Realm Expert to digest or he may find himself exploding with

"Affirmative, Maru." the system complied with the boy's request and halted its noisy notifications."Please, Madame Ais." Maru said a full minute later."Affirmative, Maru." the system responded and the boy could feel his body automatically moved on its own. There was a rustle of clothes and then warm water touched his body with its refreshing caress. When Maru opened his eyes, he was now clothed with new garments and its comfortable clean fragrance soothed his delicate youthful skin."Don't let anyone come inside my room." Maru instructed Fade and Lucy."Yes, Maru."

"Why is that?" Fade uttered after three hours passed with ease. She turned her head and saw that Lucy had also met her stare with an unflinching gaze of her own. It was their first movement since they stood in the stifling confines of the castle."You and I are familiar with each other. The years of competitions between us raised animosity that cannot be quenched anytime soon. But here we are, fate has made fun of us to be together in this place and for how long, only the gods knew for sure. Who would have thought we'd end up this way, Fade?" Lucy said and there was amusement in her voice."What is your point, Lucy?" Fade replied and remembered the countless times they'd faced each other in the field of battle. This woman was almost 10,000 years older than she was but the

"What is this?" Lucy frowned when she saw five odd looking balls inside the box. She tried pinching the top part of the brown balls with a forefinger and delighted in its softness. I seemed to break if a heavier force would fall upon it. It was natural and unpleasing to the eyes but her curiosity got the best of her. Food was not meant to be looked at but eaten in full, she determined and prepared for the worst."OOHHHHH MYYYYY!" Lucy exclaimed after a ball levitated then dropped into her mouth."THIS IS...!!!" she thought while slowly discovering the effects of the seemingly ordinary spherical shaped food she was consuming."Soul Essence!" Lucy concluded as four balls followed their counterpart. Ho

"Hahh Hahhh Hahhhh..." the gasping of Tiny Slim was endless while trying to force air into his lungs. He was already face down on the ground after only five minutes of running."Run, Maru! Get away from here now! Go!" Tiny Slim convinced his friend to escape from this place. It was not a good place to be in. Their teacher allowed such discrimination and physical brawls as long as no one died in the skirmish. Their flawed reason was for a den of survivors and not a haven for peaceful learning.“HAHAHA! You can’t get away now, pig!” the group of boys caught up to them. They were almost a dozen of them now while a number of disciples stood outside the commotion and were content on watching the fun.
A.I. Chapter 66
“Where is the Supreme Elder, Teacher?” Tiny Slim asked after he stood before his teacher. His head was bowed low but that did not stop his eyeballs from its continuous scan of the place. When his eyes connected to his new friend, he couldn’t help but smile in joy. It was nothing but good fortune for both of them that they hadn’t been beaten soft by those mischievous boys. At least, they were saved from punishment now. What Master Gregory would do to them after this, would be a totally different scene altogether.“FOOL!” the teacher roared once more and there was an intense impulse to smack this fat boy’s head but he kept his cool in the end. It was unbecoming of a man of his stature to do that, especially in front of this great character near him. Perhaps he could never even do that away from the knowin
