“Yu Jian! I told you not to play around with daggers like that!” Yu Jian's mother's voice sounded loud.
On top of the tree beside the house Yu Jian seemed to be relaxing while playing around with his dagger. He turned the dagger between his fingers as easily as if he were trained with a dagger.
“Good ma'am, I will stop.” replied Yu Jian while jumping down.
With white clothes as well as short hair looked 8-year-old Yu JIan with her arrogant face. Since reincarnating into this new world he finally gained his abilities as a awakener which he failed to realize on earth because he did not have Qi.
In this place Qi is quite abundant. But after continuing to absorb it, at one point Yu Jian realized that the Qi from nature alone was not enough to make it stronger in a short time. So when he reached the limit of absorbing Qi from the Yu Jian realm did one mission and gained the ability to use daggers and body lightening techniques.
Although he did not yet have a martial technique that used Qi, but with these techniques directly made Yu Jian famous in the village where he lived. He was famous for being the only martial expert in that remote village.
“Yu Jian.. Come play.”
From the outside came the voices of some children. They were friends of Yu Jian in this world. Although he was not fully 8 years old, Yu Jian decided to remain friends with those around him.
“Mother, I go play first.” said Yu Jian.
“Be careful, do not do anything strange with your friends.” said the mother as she waved her hand.
Yu Jian and the three others went towards the river area where they used to play. But aside from playing, Yu Jian usually tried to teach his friends the martial techniques he mastered. Surprisingly most of them were unable to do so despite following the same manner as Yu Jian.
“So today what will we do?” ask one of them.
“Play water? Practicing martial arts? Or try something new.” ask others.
With a strange look Yu Jian tried to hold back his arrogant expression as he had already achieved something new. From behind a girl who was a friend of Yu Jian kicked him to fall into the river.
“Stop making that stupid face to hide your arrogant expression. What new things did you find?” ask the girl.
The splashed Yu Jian tried to grab the riverbank, as it came out all over his clothes and his body was soaked. The drenched Yu Jian looked at the girl with an annoyed look. The girl replied to him with a satisfied expression.
“I managed to learn a new martial technique”
[Skill: Zephyr]
[Releasing Qi To Heaven And Creating Lightning Storm]
[Heaven Level Martial Technique]
A few days ago Yu Jian had just obtained one heaven level technique after completing a mission from the system. Finally he had a martial skill that involved Qi, although he did not know about the levels of martial techniques. Because he is the only martial artist he does not know the technical things related to martial arts in this world.
“New technique!”
“Show! Show!”
“Wait first. Are you sure this is safe?” the girl asked.
Yu Jian was not sure. The system only provides missions and rewards in the form of techniques without providing further explanation. The mood was silent for a moment. Only the wind that blows and the twigs that fall into the river break the silence.
“Already, let's try it. We'll know by then I've done.”
As before, the three friends of Yu Jian hid behind rocks to take cover. On the riverbank Yu Jian closed his eyes, in his mind he uttered the name of the technique he wanted to do while raising his hand to the sky
[Zephyrs]
For the first time Yu Jian used the Qi he had already gathered all this time. While uttering the technique in Yu Jian's heart felt Qi move from the center of his stomach towards his hand.
“A-Aakkhh! Aaaa!”
The originally tingling feeling like tingling changed instantly. It felt as if the entire Qi belonging to Yu Jian was sucked in by something. The roughness of that Qi made Yu Jian's hand like it was torn apart. Not only his Qi, but he felt all the energy in his body like it was being sucked by something to dry.
“Yu-Yu Jian!” said one of the worried children after hearing Yu Jian's shout.
“Stop, if we approach Yu Jian maybe we could be in danger!” said the girl while holding the arm of her friend who was trying to come to Yu Jian.
The beautiful cloudless blue sky during the day instantly changed. Gray clouds began to appear. It clustered and formed a vortex right tens to hundreds of meters above the hand of Yu Jian who was being lifted up.
The rumbling sound of lightning rang out in that place, lightning seemed to be striking within the clouds. The water speck slowly came down and the wind was blowing tightly at that spot. The rumble gets stronger on top giving a bad sign. A few moments later the rumbling stopped.
Duarr…
Lightning hit the earth. His loud voice was so deafening that the lightning struck and flattened whatever it struck. As soon as the lightning struck the rain instantly stopped and those dark clouds began to spread again. Yui Jian lay unconscious after running out of energy.
***
Yu Jian woke up from his sleep. His wrists were so painful, bandages seemed to cover his hands and stomach. Next to him, Yi Wei fell asleep in a chair with the condition of still using his mask.
His head felt so dizzy, either because of the lack of blood or because of the dream he had just experienced. The condition of the room was very dark at that time with only a small candle lit in the corner of the room.
“Yu Jian?” yi Wei's voice.
“I woke you?” yu Jian asked as if nothing had happened.
Yi Wei simply got up from the chair and approached Yu Jian. He stayed long enough, stuck out his hand and pulled it back as if there were mixed feelings in him. But Yu Jian did not see it too much because the condition of the room was quite dark

The First Stage of Martial Experts
Those who enter the martial realm will go through the three training realms. The first realm was a novice martial expert that required them to train their physique before being able to hold Qi which had a crude nature when used. The second realm was Qi gathering where once his body was strong enough the martial expert would perform Qi absorption. The third realm is the non Qi stage of learning martial techniques, in this stage advanced physical exercises are done so that the body gets stronger while using Qi.
