The Urban Dao Child.

Yang Dao was oblivious to the surprise he had caused to the people outside. His sword was clashing with the puppet's weapons and it has been a full ten minutes. The puppets had all surrounded him and were attacking almost simultaneously.

The boy did not stop parrying and after the last puppet joined the gang did he reveal a sly smile on his face. The people on the outside were able to take a glance at his facial expressions and they all thought, "Why does he seem to be happy?" 

Suddenly, they realized why he was happy. Yang Dao muttered, "Four elemental swords, first style, Blade dance in spring." 

Spring was a season of elemental harmony and was the most balanced season, thus it was placed as the first style. Yang Dao unsheathed his sword and then began his counter. The blade was as if cherry blossom leaves dancing through the void. The sword in his hand was dancing and stabbing at the joints of the puppets. 

It was not only at the puppets but also at the weapons they were attacking him with. His body was also moving around like a silk ribbon being manipulated by a dancer. The attacks were so precise and strong that the people could not help but watch his performance in a daze. 

The girl in the green robe revealed a faint smile and said, "To think we will have a swordmaster in this batch, and too young at that." 

Athena could not help but ask, "Senior sister Shakti. What do you mean? Is this young boy a swordmaster?" 

The girl in the green robe was called Shakti. She was a well-known martial artist in the surrounding systems. The reason, she was a weapon expert and had the cultivation of the peak of the golden core realm. She nodded as she heard this question, "Yes, he is a swordmaster. His mastery of the sword is high enough." 

Athena gulped and asked, "But I heard that one must reach the golden core realm to be called a weapon master because only then they will be able to project the sword energy outside their bodies." 

Shakti nodded and said, "You are only half correct. You become a swordmaster when you can lace the blade with your spirit energy. The moment you can project the spirit energy outside the body, that is when you reach the peak of it." 

Athena nodded in understanding. Diana said in a small voice, "Look, he is cutting down the puppets." 

...

Inside the formation, Yang Dao was starting to use the harder attacks. He held the sword in front of him, the tip of the sword pointed towards the sky and the boy said, "Spring gust." 

The next moment he vanished from his position and appeared behind the puppets. The reason he had not slain them all till now was that he was using them to enrich his combat experience. Now that he sensed no pressure from the puppets, he shot forward, dealing with them all at once. 

With that, he sighed and stepped outside the formation while sheathing his sword back in the white sheath. He found that the people were looking at him with wide-open eyes. He asked, "I passed, right?" 

Shakti nodded and said, "Yes, you did. Come along. The elders will be arriving over soon. They will make the announcements." 

Yang Dao nodded and asked as he walked forward, "This elder hiding inside the void is not an important figure then?" 

His words, puzzled a few people while Shakti was stunned. She was aware that an elder from the sect was here watching over the examination. However, she did not understand how this little guy can sense his presence. The old man was in a realm that was a dream for a lot of people. 

Before she could react, a peal of hearty laughter filled the surroundings. An old man materialized in front of the students, floating in the void with his legs crossed in a lotus position. The old man had bald, as his hair grew long enough to reach his waist. The old man slowly landed on the ground. He said, "Brat, I am an important figure in the sect." 

The students were all shocked, they did not expect an old expert to be hiding inside the void. Yang Dao bowed towards the laughing immortal and said, "I meant no offense to you, Senior. I apologize." 

The old man shook his head and said, "It is fine, knowing that you can perceive me is still a very big surprise for me in quite a few decades. How did you do it?" 

Yang Dao replied, "Perceive the spirit energy around, it reveals fluctuations when the experts use it to mask their presence. Only when they have achieved the realm of spiritual unity will they be able to completely hide their presence." 

The old man nodded, he did not bother to explain what the realm of spiritual unity meant to the students around. He said, "My name is Bai Lao, you can call me Elder Bai. I am the fifth seat of the elder council of the sovereign sect. Meaning, I am the fifth strongest person inside the sect. In the upcoming moments, you will be judged by the elders of the council in the sect. They will tell you about where you will be assigned." 

The old man cast his gaze at Yang Dao again, while Shakti stood behind him. The man asked, "Boy, would you like to be my disciple?" 

His words sent a wave of shock to all the people. They did not know what the true identity of this old sir was, however, he was known as the White Weapon King. The girl Shakti as his Disciple. However, the tag of being the fifth seat of the sect was good enough for almost all of the students to be drooling at his feet. 

However, who was Yang Dao? The boy simply asked, "Ummm, can I meet the other elders before I accept a Master?" 

His words made every student wake up from their daze and Elder Bai fell in a stupor.. A rejection would have been fine, but how was he to react to this innocent procrastination? The old man was yet to react when a few streamers of light approached the students from all directions.
