Chapter 7: New Friends

After his first day of school, Tianshang had some idea as to why his parents wanted him to go there. He had made a friend, a genuine friend. The only person he had ever considered to be more than a customer or a junior was Lei Feng, he had thought of him to be his friend but he was a snake that only wanted his treasures. But Zhao Feng was a different story, he was just a Ten Year Old Kid who wanted to enjoy his life and have some other people with him to do the same. After the lesson, he had brought Tianshang to some of his other friends in the class, ``Hey, my name is Chu Feng and this is my brother Chu Shen. We are both from the Chu Royal Family in the Morningstar Empire.'' Tianshang knew about this Empire, it was a First Tier Empire under the protection of Profound Creation Sect, there were five other First Tier Empires with several Second Tier Empires under each of them. they handled the mortal affairs of the Sect, providing new Disciples, labour and materials while Sect provided them with protection and chance to Ascend.

The next person who introduced themselves was also a child of the Elders, Wang Feng, ``Hey, I heard from my father that you are also a Heavenly Yellow Grade Alchemist, Weapon Refiner and an Array Master, is that true?'' cutting straight to the point, this girl displayed her personality perfectly. She had been born into a rich household and was extremely talented and beautiful as well, but a bit arrogant, nothing that bothered Tianshang though. ``Yeah! If you guys need any help, I am happy to do so.'' The group was happy and shocked at the same time, most if not all Occupation Masters were a bit snobby and they had every right to be. First it was hard enough to start any of the Major occupations and then it gets harder and harder to advance to higher levels. Tianshang wasn't a exception to this rule, he only did jobs for materials he needed otherwise he would refuse to even see people, as a Heavenly Sky Grade Master, he had the right to be arrogant. But these were his friends, for family and friends no rules apply.

The boy who going to introduce himself next stopped in his tracks but Zhao Feng saw through his insecurities and gave him a kick, ``Yo! Tang San, how many times have I told you we are friends, we don't mind if you have a common background. Go on, introduce yourself or we aren't friends anymore.'' Another girl who was going to introduce themselves after him also spoke up, ``Yeah! I also want to introduce myself, hurry up.'' Under the urging of his friends, Tang San spoke up, ``Hey man, I am Tang San. I am from a village near the Profound Mountain Range.'' Hearing from him and the girl, he found out they were from the same village, Xu Qi and Tang San were childhood friends but she got picked up by a Array Master Peak Elder who saw that she had a Special Soul, Mirror Soul, which was perfect for becoming an Array Master. Ever since then, Tang San thought himself to be a bit inferior than her and avoided her. She was the one who forcibly dragged him into this group and introduced him to Zhao Feng, Wang Yan, Chu Feng and Chu Shen.

After the introduction, all the friends exchanged communication slips and promised to help each other when in need. Arriving at home he went to his parents and thanked them profusely, ``Thank You Mum, Dad. I have received the best gift since my Reincarnation.'' Both were happy for their child and his siblings arrived with his clone as well. ``Big Brother! We played a lot today.'' ``Yeah! Big Brother, Uh… Big Brother helped us fly!'' Zhu Lei got confused midway through her sentence because of his clone causing everyone except the two young ones to laugh.

Days turned into weeks and weeks turned into months. Zhu Tianshang was having fun with his life, he didn't need to pay attention in class, so he used his time to help his friends. All his friends had at least one if not two Occupations, The Two Brothers were Weapon Refiner and Alchemists, Zhao Feng was an Array Master just like Xu Qi while Tang San and Wang Feng were both geniuses with two Occupations, Alchemist and Weapon Refining. With Tianshang's help, they advanced leaps and bounds and some of them were even ready to take the test to step into the Heavenly Yellow Grade. Tianshang had been jumping around the Profound Mountain Range for fun but with his level and type of Divine Sense, he always found Natural Treasures left, right and centre. After all, how could the base of a Top Tier Sect be ordinary, so Immortal's Space now had more and more Precious Herbs and Flowers alongside Mystic Beasts. He had been using some of them in Pills and Potions and giving the diluted versions of them to his friends. He was preparing their bodies to welcome the Purification Process like he had done for his siblings. Now he was waiting for the day they left to complete a Sect Mission to help purify their bodies like his family and gift them Higher Level Techniques for both their cultivation and their Occupations. And the day arrived soon.

Ao Li, ``Students, Tomorrow you are going to be separated into groups of your choice and sent on missions. Remember the higher number of people means higher level of difficulty. Prepare yourselves tonight. Dismissed.''
