Hope

"Fourth elder"Lucian screamed in surprise.

The fourth elder,Fa grovater, the most mysterious elder of Brighten stone village,who however appeared once in a blue moon,a master domain warrior, was standing right before him. He felt his leg betraying him as he fell and bow before him.

"Junior greet senior"

"You haven't answered my question". Fa grovater voiced again. Lucian was scared to his wit.

"I'm leaving...."

Lucian told him his story to avoid offending the fourth elder." I had to leave."

Fa grovater laughed" you are that Lucian, you are weak... come with me" he said after a while. The fourth elder turned around not wanting to hear his opinion.

"What punishment I'm I going to receive" Lucian thought as he quickly hopped behind to keep up with him.

They arrived before a rock, Lucian eyes widen, before him is a pathway,he has been here several times but this pathway has never been there.

"Move in"

Fear appear on Lucian face

The fourth elder sighed " I have a method to heal your cripple cultivation. There are conditions attached to it ?"

"I'm willing to do whatever you ask" joy appear on his face, but he still doubt in his mind. No one can heal cripple cultivation.

"Come in"

. . . . .

"I can't find Lucian, I think he left" a beautiful girl around fourteen walked in, her green dress graciously approach the room.

"Violet, you shouldn't worry, I think he left to avoid humiliation" Quinn replied in a breaking tone.

"Why did you do it, you could've saved him".

"I had to, I had no choice" Quinn said indifferently as she recall the event.

A round face teenager ran into the room with joy. Quinn and violet look begrudgingly, they could see her circulating her energy to quickly approach them.

"What is it?" Quinn and violet asked in unison, they were eager to learn her goodnews

Ura zophi laughed as she looked at their curious face. "My master got me a token to participate in the tournament of prodigy". Ura zophi cheered, Quinn beamed with smile as she was moved to ask her master for a token. They noticed violet sour face as she still only at level six narcrest domain, she isn't strong enough to participate in the tournament. Both Quinn and Ura zophi are a whole domain higher than her.

Quinn is a level two vischaunt domain and Ura zophi is a level one vischaunt domain warrior.

"Quinn, master seeks your presence". Tibe pim voiced from the entrance. Quinn beamed with smile ran along.

. . . . .

Every contestant were in seclusion learning new techniques from their masters library.

"Tibe odam, have you heard the fourth elder took a token for his disciple?" Tibe odam suddenly asked.

"Is that true?"people around him voiced out.

"Impossible"

"Fourth elder has no disciple"

"Tibe Oro, are you in need of attention?"

"Stop teasing us"

"He isn't teasing you, the fourth elder actually took a token for a disciple" Vor andope said. People quiet down,no one voiced against him and had to believe the words of the first disciple of the third elder.

"Stop chattering and continue cultivating, the tournament is in seven months time.

. . . . .

"Quinn, come with me, I want to spar with you" Ura zophi dragged Quinn towards a garden.

Quinn stood upright. She was four and half feet tall, she's fourteen but look sixteen. She had a bronze bracelet on her wrist, waiting curiously for Ura zophi attacks.

"Soul fire" she stuck mightly at Quinn.

Quinn was shocked, she's only at level one vischaunt domain yet she can threaten a level two vischaunt domain warrior.

"Shock wave"

She was more shocked as her power could not counter her attack

"Sonic dash"

Quinn quickly evade the garden to avoid being injured.

"I hope we don't meet on the battlefield" Quinn walked with mixed emotion she knew she can't depend only on her sound power.

"Too bad she's only a level one vischaunt domain warrior or else she would made it to top ten" Quinn muttered as she walk along, she was still scared of the recent attack.

. . . . .

"Have analyzed their power, I'm sure I can win the tournament" standing before the fourth elder stood a purple haired boy with a azure blue dim eye.

"Don't be arrogant, you still need to train" he was scolded.

Lucian moved away angrily as his master still consider him weak
