Level Up! Martial Technique
Regrets of a Reincarnator [13]

Yu Jian did not move from his place at all. It makes people around him wonder. After his arrogance it was Yu Jian just kept silent without preparing himself.

“You nervous?” Yi Wei asked aware that Yu Jian's body was trembling slightly.

“Y- Yes little.”

“Then why do you have to challenge the sect leader? Isn't that too rash?” Yi Wei was curious.

“I've thought about it well, Although I used to be called a genius for mastering dagger and body piercing techniques, but at my current age it's not something that prides you ta-”

Before Yu Jian could finish his words, Yi Wei elbowed his stomach quite firmly.

“You're mocking or what? I haven't even mastered a single martial technique yet. You're already in the semi-upper realm because you mastered two martial techniques that people our age have only mastered one. Yes even though I know it thanks to the help of something you call ‘system’.”

“Sorry-sorry, then I change it. The sect would not accept a disciple if it had not been the registration time, even if it was a talented person. If I want to be accepted into this sect right now, then I have to make the sect head acknowledge me whether it likes it or not. Just mastering two martial techniques alone I am sure will not satisfy him.”

“You didn't make preparations?” the face of the sect head seemed impatient when viewed from Yu Jian's position.

He just stuck his hand at Yi Wei. Hoping for Yi Wei to hold onto her to calm her nervousness.Aware of that Yi Wei welcomed Yu Jian's hand and grasped it tightly. Yu Jian could only smile in relief as he lowered his hand and looked at the sect head.

“I'm ready.” Yu Jian's voice is firm and full of confidence.

“Hah? What do you mean ready? You haven't even whistled-” yet

The atmosphere around started to change, realizing that the sect master was directly staring into the sky. The bright sky that enveloped the valley of the Azure sect as a sign of joy on the day of the sect's founding instantly changed.

A small glint appeared in Yu Jian's right hand. He released a bit of his Qi into the sky, just like he did a few years ago. However Yu Jian tried to suppress the Qi expenditure that he used so that it did not get out of control.

Clouds began to gather and rumbling sounds began to be heard. The size of the storm was much smaller and thinner than the one Yu Jian had once summoned. The sect master who saw that took out his sword.

Zephyrs

The lightning snatched quite strongly towards the sect head. With a sword layered Qi the sect leader attacked the incoming lightning. The lightning split into pieces and snatched some parts of the sect. However, some elders moved to protect the disciples from the lightning fragments.

Beside him Yi Wei clasped increasingly hard the hand belonging to Yu Jian. Resuscitating him just like that, just a moment ago when lightning struck the heart sect master Yu Jian noticeably paused for a moment. But the strong grasp of Yi Wei resuscitated him.

As he regained his senses Yu Jian looked at the surroundings. There was some damage as some of the chiefs ignored the lightning that did not strike the disciples. No one was injured or killed this time.

Yu Jian's legs seemed to have lost all his strength. Tears came out without him noticing, flowing like a river and rubbing his cheeks.

“Thank you... hiks.. It's a good thing.. hiks... This time no one got hurt... Thankfully no one else had to die because of me... hiks....”.

His entire emotions flooded countlessly. He doesn't know what he's crying about right now. The sadness? Gratitude because no one was hurt? Regret for the tragedy he caused? Yu Jian did not know all that, whatever emotions he was feeling at the moment was a mixture of everything he had endured until this moment.

Everyone was silent, no one spoke at all. Be it about the lightning that came out of nowhere or the cry of Yu Jian that was so loud. The sect master looked at Yu Jian from above, he sheathed his sword.

“I think Yu Jian has shown his value. MUlai today he officially became a disciple of this sect.” said the sect leader while sitting back.

“How could such a sect head be? We don't even know if it was really him who did it. He has not even reached the realm of master.” said one of the elders.

“She, it was done by him.” The sect leader kept looking at Yu Jian who was below. “Chairman Zhang, bring Yu Jian when he is calm to face the chairman and the elders of the sect.”

“Of course the chairman.” master Zhang smiled in satisfaction.

***

This was the second time Yu Jian had been in this place. The first time he came was when he had just stepped on his feet in the Azure sect. There was not much change from that place, one seat in the middle of the higher and the other seat on the right and left. It appeared that the sect leader and the elders were observing Yu Jian.

“New disciple Yu Jian faced the sect leader and the elders.”

Yu Jian looked at the surroundings. Many dissatisfied eyes were directed towards him, only the strange gazes of master Zhang and elder Xian De had satisfied gazes.

“So Yu Jian, you know why you were brought here?” ask the sect leader.

“That, may be related to the dissatisfaction of some disciples and elders towards my acceptance.” jawan Yu Jian was honest.

A table was hit hard. An elder got up from his chair and walked towards Yu Jian.

“I cannot accept this assessment. There is no evidence that the technique is his. There could have been an expert behind it and waiting for that moment.”

“So elder Quan meant there was a Heaven realm expert who had such free time and helped Yu Jian cheat? I thought not, so Yu Jian, would you like to tell me.” pinta the sect head.

“Sure sect head. So I used to find one heaven-level martial script and study it. Unfortunately I used to be young and careless, plus the technique was deep in my realm making a mess. But now I find a way to outsmart it.”

“Known?! There's no way a guy like you bi-” a guy called teuta Quan protests.

“Close your mouth and let Yu Jian finish it old man! Yu Jian had even mastered two martial techniques when he was 8 years old.”

The two elders hurled insults at each other. An attitude that did not reflect an elder from a big sect.

“Then I continue. So what I did..”.

Yu Jian explained how to use the heaven level technique in his current realm.  First Yu Jian emptied his pulse Qi and opened his Qi pool, then he flowed his Qi into his right hand and instantly closed his Qi pool quickly. The moment the required Qi had already released Yu Jian into the air, the rest of the excess Qi in his veins was instantly overcome by Yu Jian. If he did not overcome then the Qi spread into the air would be too much and inflict even greater damage from summoning even more powerful clouds.

Yu Jian used the same technique again on his left hand, but with a stronger intensity. Because his Qi pool was closed then the Qi that was originally in the right hand was quickly drawn and changed direction towards his left hand.

“When Qi was about to reach my left hand, I did the technique again in my right hand by increasing the intensity. It kept me doing it over and over again until finally the excess Qi that was in the shape of the wisp of Qi in my veins became smoother and the particles were released from each other. That's because it goes back and forth too often. At that point Qi would not be able to be used for martial techniques. It was like trying to use a heaven level technique with depleted Qi.” Yu Jian said.

He uses the concept of a liquid object that clumps will become diluted if too often shaken. Yu Jian was satisfied with his basic knowledge.

There was not a single person who replied to Yu Jian's words. Both the sect master and the Zhang master were all silent at precisely while showing a puzzled expression. Even the furious Qua elder before was instantly speechless by a thousand languages.

“Actually I don't really understand what you're saying. What is clear is that you can open and close your Qi pool. Closing the Qi path might be possible, but the Qi pond? You should be under my auspices.” Elder Quan suddenly spoke up.

Like his previous encounter, this time Yu Jian was viewed again like a rare item. Elder Quan showed his interest clearly to Yu Jian.

“I think our sect found something interesting. So Yu Jian, since you have already been accepted into the Azure Sect as a special disciple you are allowed to be free from daily training. You also have the right to choose your own teacher, so who will you choose?” said the sect leader.

Yu Jian turned around to dine the sect leader. It was his eyes that determined the teacher he was going to choose. He also changed the direction of his gaze towards Master Zhang.

“I chose elder Zhang.” he said without hesitation.

“Eh? Me? Yu Jian you know I'm a poison master, right? I can't teach you who is a fighter with a lightning Qi change type. At least choose Xian De, even though he is a teacher of fire Qi change techniques at least there is still a possibility for you.” Zhang master is trying to dodge.

“Can we know your reason?”

“I got here thanks to elder Zhang, he brought me here-”

“Ah... indebtedness yes? You don't have to reply like that, the important thing is that you just practice being strong.”

Yu Jian's speech was interrupted suddenly by master Zhang's words. Everyone in the room was just staring strangely and it didn't seem to be the first time he was acting strangely.

What's wrong with Master Zhang? I can't understand a 70-year-old person using this rejuvenation pill.

“Actually elder Zhang, I don't really owe you. Honestly I was upset and grateful for dragging me into my trauma again. I would even prefer to study under elder Quan whose reason was obviously because of being interested in my Qi pool. As for elder Zhang, actually I still don't know what you want from me.” Yu Jian said firmly.

“Then?”

“Yi Wei, she helped me through my difficult times. Helping me when I fall, comforting me when I'm sad. He led me when I was tossed in the storm. I respect him and he is everything to me. Right now he has a poison Qi that often makes him feel pain, because I have a strong Qi so I decided to be next to him when he needed me. Just like he was next to me when I needed him. For that I must be under the auspices of elder Zhang.” Yu Jian said without a doubt.

The sect elder could only resign with Yu Jian's decision. It seemed that no one protested Yu Jian's decision because they believed their words would not be written by Yu Jian.

“It looks like no one will be able to shake your decision.” praise the sect head

“Even gods though will not be able to head the sect.” Yu Jian replied.

“Alright then Yu Jian will be under the guidance of Elder Zhang. We look forward to your achievements Yu Jian.”

Back then Yu Jian had already fully become a special grade disciple in the Azure Sect.
