Spirit Academy.

Chapter 11- Spirit Academy.

Elder Su made his way back to his quarters and summoned his most trusted subordinates. He asked them to invite the most talented soul masters who were on the list of children collected from their observations to Spirit Academy. And asked them to explain to their parents in detail what all benefits the Spirit Academies first class can give to them. This included a free Spirit Soul if they promised to sign a contract to work for Spirit Pagoda for 5 years and also almost free elementary, intermediate and advanced education if they can prove themselves.

Within a few days they had accomplished their task of inviting the children to the new Academy. Elder Su had put in all his men on this project and he had made his higher ranking men invite the most talented children in the group as soon as possible. Most of these invitations were successful though there were a few who disagreed saying they want to try and get into Shrek academy, Those few were from reputable families.

"Hmm, Now that we know we can go forward with Class 1 and the facilities that are going to be used have already been provided by Spirit Pagoda let's go forward and start with sending our men to the people who have accepted our terms. Also, it must be noted that kids can not leave academy premises except for vacations. Visiting them is not recommended and the academy will provide them with accommodation"

Elder Su told his men who had assembled after they had invited enough talents to their new academy.They went to personally invite because they wanted to use this class 1 as a medium of advertisement. The new class consisted of about 30 students and all their parents had agreed to Pagoda's terms after seeing the benefits it would bring their child.

"The elementary level education of class 1 shall be handled by Wong Wei who is a Spirit Elder and the instructor for Intermediate education can be discussed later. This has been approved by Spirit Pagoda." Elder Su announced

"I'm honored, Though I would like to go and escort a particular child who I had suggested to be a student on my own. I was the one who awakened him and his bloodline really does pique my curiosity." Wong Wei asked the elder with a respectful demeanor

"Then you go ahead with that." Elder Su answered.

----------------- Back to what was happening in chap 9 ----------------

Wong Wei's pov.

He had come to invite this student who had piqued his interest but when he arrived at said person's home he was met with unaccommodating eyes. Though he did not give it much thought he realized that the family situation was a bit complex.

"I'm here today to take your son to Spirit Academy, We need to start their elementary education as soon as possible. Don't you agree?" Wong Wei asked while trying to be as respectful as possible to the student's parents.

"Well, I did not expect you people to arrive this quickly." Lin tian said clearly he was not looking amused.

"Um, what might the problem be?" Wong Wei asked while squinting his eyes, he could not comprehend this situation. The parents had agreed to send their kid to Spirit Academy but were not prepared to send them now that he had come to pick Long Yuan up…

"It's a family problem, There is still something I would like to talk about with my son before sending him to Spirit Academy." Lin Tian answered Wong Wei's concern.

"Oh, That's fine you can take all the time you want though I would appreciate it if you could make him free as soon as possible. I do understand that i came in rather short notice." Wong Wei told Lin Tian he could understand where this parents concerns were coming from since he made sure to get here as soon as possible and it's likely that they did not expect it and maybe have not discussed about Spirit Academy with their son yet.

"I'm happy to hear that and yes I shall make him free as soon as possible. I would like it if you could wait in our hotel and tell us your needs." Lin Tian replied with his business smile he finally understood that this person meant no harm and was a genuine person.

Lin Tian summoned a few of his servants who escorted Wong Wei to TianGong and served him whatever he asked for.

Now that the Lin family had some room to talk to each other Lin Tian started to speak his mind.

"Yuan'er , As you have already heard we have enrolled you into Spirit Academy its a new project from the Spirit Pagoda and it seems that they are looking for talents like you for their first class."

"Oh , That sounds fun." Long Yuan answered his parents he did not expect being enrolled into an elementary academy which was under Spirit Pagoda but he was a bit happy and expectant because he had heard many great things about them.

"Son, once you leave today we can only meet after many years…" Lin Tian told

"Huh, Why is that??" Long Yuan was feeling really confused and couldn't help but ask.

"Yuan'er , Dad and Mom have some work we have to deal with…" Lin Tian told his son while Mei Gong refused to look them in their eyes and was hiding her face.

Long Yuan did not know what to think about anymore. He was really confused at this moment. He did not know why everyone who was important to him was leaving him alone and he hated the fact that he could do nothing about it other than just cry. Though he refused to cry and stayed calm and wanted to push for answers.

"Father, are you and Mom going to abandon me?" Long Yuan asked while trying his best not to cry.

"Son, We would never do that. It's just that you are not strong enough so we cannot take you with us. Yuan'er you must always remember that in Soul Master societies Strength is what is most respected. I want you to work hard and become as strong as you can. Get close to people and find more people whom you can treasure." Lin Tian told Long Yuan while Mei gong hugged her son from behind, She was tearing up.

"Yuan'er we love you but we cannot take you with us." Mei gong said while hugging her son

"Yes mom I understand. I'l become the strongest in the world so that you and father don't need to worry about anything anymore." Long Yuan said with a determined expression on his face.

Long Yuan had strengthened his resolve; he never wanted to see people close to him in tears. After spending some more time talking about things Long Yuan realised that his parents did not want to talk about where they were going or what they were going to do. This really did concern him. Though they did give him a spatial ring and a spirit communicator and told him that their home was going nowhere and he was always welcome to hang out here and they would call him once he finished his advanced education. Soon Lin Tian took his son to Tian Gong and left him in his new teacher's care.
