Chapter 1: A Sparrow And A Phoenix, A Man Is The Master Of His Own Fate!

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

In the Zhenwu Continent, Purple Sun Institution.

This institution was one of the four greatest institutions in the Billow Dynasty’s Flowing Cloud Ridge and was so superior that the students there were wealthy and respectable people.

It was midsummer at the moment, where the Sun shone brightly in the sky. Two people were seen standing opposite one another.

“Luo Feng, it’s impossible between us! Stop your wishful thinking!”

A young lady who was holding a sandalwood box looked at the young man in front of her with disgust.

The air was extremely dry, but the young lady sounded so cold that it gave a chill down one’s spine.

On the other hand, the good-looking young man, whose eyes were shut, had a face so pale that he looked dead.

Upon hearing the sound, Luo Feng’s eyelids flickered for a moment before he opened his eyes, and slowly showed a lively complexion.

After looking at his surroundings, Luo Feng fixed his gaze on the young lady in front of him. He eventually understood what just happened after being confused for a while, but everything seemed rather complicated.

“I can’t believe that the owner of this body is named Luo Feng too, I’ve actually traveled through time…”

Luo Feng mumbled softly, lost in thought.

He recalled being in a car accident while on his way to school.

By the time he awoke, he was already standing here with a set of strange memories in his head.

Luo Feng recollected all the memories of this body’s past owner.

In his memory, he was a young master of a noble family in Flowing Cloud Ridge. He began studying at Purple Sun Institution three years ago, which was where he met Lin Xiaoxiao, who was his classmate. From then on, Luo Feng started crazily chasing after Lin Xiaoxiao.

Once the original owner knew that Lin Xiaoxiao wished to enter a martial arts shrine, he did not hesitate to give all his cultivation resources to her.

This time, the original Luo Feng used three months’ worth of savings to purchase a Grade One Vitality Condensation Pill as a gift for Lin Xiaoxiao, but unexpectedly received a heartless remark in return. Lin Xiaoxiao was determined to cut off all relations with him.

Consequently, the original owner was so furious that he disappeared from Heaven and Earth.

After figuring out the sequence of events, Luo Feng laughed at himself as he could not believe that the original owner’s death was even more surprising than his.

Luo Feng looked at Lin Xiaoxiao from head to toe.

Lin Xiaoxiao’s graceful figure was exquisitely outlined by a classic crimson dress. She had long dark green hair that hung loosely like a waterfall, as well as a pair of delicate eyes.

Under the sunlight, she was as striking as a newly bloomed peony and was indeed a beauty who was hard to come by. That being said, the hint of arrogance that she carried made her less attractive.

“Why?”

Luo Feng blurted out. When he looked at Lin Xiaoxiao, various memories of the original owner came to his mind, which made him feel unreconciled, mad, and humiliated.

In those memories, Lin Xiaoxiao used to be very close to him, so there must be a reason for the sudden change in her temperament.

“I…”

Lin Xiaoxiao was tongue-tied. She felt a chill due to Luo Feng’s distant stare, which was a look that she had never seen before.

“Hmph! I’ll tell you why!”

A yell came out of nowhere, where a square-faced young man with wide ears approached Luo Feng with majestic strides.

Luo Feng recognized him right away. The young man was Lin Xiaoxiao’s older cousin, Lin Hui. The three of them were classmates in Silver Moon Class at the institution.

Lin Hui, who was nine feet tall, looked strong. He gave Luo Feng a mocking look.

“Xiaoxiao is the daughter of Sky Frost City’s mayor, how could she be interested in trash like you from a small city at the border! She was only using you to break through boundaries! You just didn’t seem to know where you stand, and took it seriously! You’re just a toad wishing to eat swan meat!”

Luo Feng was immediately enraged.

Lin Hui gave a cynical laugh as he placed his hands behind his back.

“Luo Feng, let me tell you, Xiaoxiao’s sweetheart is Mister Duanmu from the Inner Institution! Xiaoxiao has now activated the Fourth Meridian Cycle, she’ll enter Golden Sun Class in a few days, and will soar into the sky! On the contrary, you’re just a worthless man at Level Two Meridian Cycle!”

‘Mister Duanmu… Duanmu Yu!’

Luo Feng was enlightened when the memories related to this name immediately appeared in his mind. He clenched his fists subconsciously.

Duanmu Yu was a popular genius in the institution. He achieved Level Four Meridian Cycle Boundary when he was fourteen years old, and Level Five Meridian Cycle Boundary when he was fifteen years old. Duanmu Yu was extremely gifted and was one of the top ten elite students in Wing Tiger Class at the Inner Institution.

In addition, Duanmu Yu’s family background was also notable!

Duanmu Yu’s eldest uncle was an elder of one of the Twelve Golden Halls in the Billow Dynasty, Heavenly Sword Hall. His eldest brother was also a renowned master in Heavenly Sword Hall, and was likely going to cultivate at one of the nine major martial arts shrines in the Billow Dynasty! Therefore, Duanmu Yu was very well-known at Purple Sun Institution.

The Outer Institution of Purple Sun Institution was separated into Golden Sun Class and Silver Moon Class.

Students in Golden Sun Class were exceptionally gifted, whereas students in Silver Moon Class were average, and it was, supposedly, impossible for a student from Silver Moon Class to enter Golden Sun Class.

Unquestionably, Lin Xiaoxiao could only enter Golden Sun Class because of Duanmu Yu!

Luo Feng’s and his body’s original owner’s memories merged, as if he had lived through the original owner’s past experiences. Instantly, Luo Feng was filled with the resentment and rage that belonged to the original owner.

‘I’ve been head over heels for her for three years, yet she only used me like a fool. Now that she has someone better to cling onto, she turns her back on me…’

“Hehe, no wonder you suddenly turned your back on me, you’re all over Duanmu Yu now. What a pity, what a pity… A sparrow will always be a sparrow, it can’t be a phoenix.”

Luo Feng, who had figured out the details, looked at her indifferently.

“Do you want to die?!”

Lin Hui was mad upon hearing Luo Feng insulting of Lin Xiaoxiao. The energy of a Level Three Meridian Cycle was released as Lin Hui was about to teach Luo Feng a lesson.

“Dong, dong, dong…”

All of a sudden, the bell tolled melodiously three times and was heard within the institution.

The bells indicated the beginning of class, hence other students rushed into the institution. A number of people noticed Luo Feng, Lin Xiaoxiao, and Lin Hui, and were looking at them curiously.

“Forget it, Older Cousin, it’s time for class. Let’s go.”

Lin Xiaoxiao did not want to draw attention, thus she quickly stopped Lin Hui when she saw people heading into the institution. Afterward, she turned to look at Luo Feng arrogantly and spoke to him with disdain.

“Luo Feng, you’re already fifteen years old, but your cultivation base is only at the later phase of Level Two Meridian Cycle. You’re trash! I’m entering Golden Sun Class now, and I’ll surely enter the Inner Institution in the future, then make my way to the Twelve Golden Halls! We’re from two different worlds, so don’t bother me anymore. Or else, don’t blame me for being rude!”

Later, Lin Xiaoxiao and Lin Hui walked toward the institution. After walking a few steps, Lin Xiaoxiao turned around, bit her lips, then threw the box to Luo Feng’s feet.

“This is your Vitality Condensation Pill. I don’t need a low-grade spirit pill like that, save it for yourself.”

Lin Xiaoxiao left after giving that cold remark.

The students around them looked at Luo Feng with sympathy, then began discussing among themselves.

“Another overconfident fella probably got cold-shouldered.”

“I know that female student earlier, she’s Lin Xiaoxiao from Silver Moon Class, and she has been really close with Mister Duanmu from the Inner Institution.”

“Mister Duanmu! Tsk, tsk, no wonder. This poor fella here is only a student from the Outer Institution’s Silver Moon Class and has the strength of Level Two Meridian Cycle. He and Mister Duanmu are like Heaven and Earth, it’s no surprise that he was dumped. Poor fella…”

The crowd dispersed after a short while since class was about to begin and that it was not the first time something like this happened.

Luo Feng was not bothered about the looks from the people around him and picked up the box from the ground.

He felt like laughing at himself when he looked at the box.

“If I hadn’t given you all my cultivation resources for the past three years to help you with your cultivation, I wouldn’t still be at Level Two Meridian Cycle…”

Luo Feng’s qualities were not outstanding, but they were not substandard too. At the age of fifteen, he should already be at Level Three Meridian Cycle.

However, Luo Feng had been giving his cultivation resources to Lin Xiaoxiao for the past three years, causing him to be stuck at the same boundary.

“Life has its ups and downs. Lin Xiaoxiao, I’ll make you regret your decision today.”

With great determination, Luo Feng took a deep breath and swore to himself that he must be successful.

Not only because he wanted Lin Xiaoxiao to pay for humiliating him, but also because he wanted to treasure his rebirth.

When Luo Feng looked at the sandalwood box again, he had already calmed down.

“Vitality Condensation Pill are Grade One spirit pills that contain a substantial amount of vitality! I’ve been stagnant at Level Two Meridian Cycle for a very long time, this Vitality Condensation Pill will help me to breakthrough.”

Luo Feng kept the Vitality Condensation Pill well, freshened himself up, then strode into the institution.

He strongly believed that a man was a master of his own fate. Since the original owner was quite talented, he would succeed if he put slightly more effort than the others.

Hundreds of young men and women, who were either fourteen or fifteen years old, were standing under the blazing sun on the institution’s training ground.

They wore pure white uniforms with an embroidered Sun and gold edges, which was the uniform for Outer Institution students at Purple Sun Institution. A silver waning crescent could be seen at the chest level of their uniforms, indicating that they were students from Silver Moon Class.

Hundreds of Silver Moon Class students stood like poles on the training ground.

Luo Feng stood at the back of his class as he looked at the young lady standing in front of the square formation.

The lady appeared to be seventeen or eighteen years old. She looked both courageous and wild, and was extremely beautiful. The red animal skin outfit that she wore perfectly outlined her hot body and her black hair that was tied into a ponytail enhanced her heroic spirit even more. The lady was Ji Wuyue, the martial arts mentor of Silver Moon Class.

Ji Wuyue crossed her arms across her chest and ignored the greedy looks from the male students. Her intimidating voice could be heard loud and clear.

“Humans have three souls and seven spirits. Apart from the Humanly Soul, the other two souls and seven spirits form the Nine Meridian Cycles in our body. The meridian cycles contain endless wonders! Martial artists cultivate the meridian cycles in their bodies!

“The Nine Meridian Cycles are located at Yuanguan acupuncture point1, Shenque acupuncture point2, the five major organs, Dantian the gate of Hell, and Tianmen the gate of Heaven! The Nine Meridian Cycles correspond to Nine Levels of Meridian Cycle Boundary respectively!

“The first level preserves health, the second level strengthens the body, the third level perfects energy, the fourth level couples strength and gentleness, the fifth level toughens bones, the sixth level instills bravery, the seventh level stores essence, the eighth level is Hell, and the ninth level is Heaven! The activation of each meridian cycle causes an extreme transmutation to the human body, allowing one to gain incredible abilities. One will attain supreme strength, muscles and bones of steel, profound knowledge…”

These were basic facts about Meridian Cycle Boundary. While most of the students paid little attention, Luo Feng listened to every single one of Ji Wuyue’s words closely.

Luo Feng was aware that the basics were the root of everything. Since the original owner’s basics were poor, it was important that Luo Feng did not neglect this.

“Now, begin your cultivation!”

Once Ji Wuyue was done with the explanations, she glanced at the students, then ordered, “Close your eyes, and cast all distracting thoughts aside. Try to use the vitality in your bodies to cultivate the meridian cycles.”

This was a compulsory cultivation every day. Upon hearing her, the students closed their eyes, and their surroundings became silent.

Luo Feng entered his cultivation state very quickly with the help of his memories.

Once Luo Feng’s consciousness sunk into his body, he was ready to cultivate the meridian cycles with his vitality as instructed by Ji Wuyue. Nonetheless, the moment he shut his eyes, he shouted, “What’s going on!”

Luo Feng opened his eyes right away as he was bewildered.

Theoretically, he should have only activated Yuanguan acupuncture point and Shenque acupuncture point since he was only at Level Two Meridian Cycle.

However, Luo Feng felt that he had four activated meridian cycles in his body!

“Luo Feng!”

While Luo Feng was still taken aback by the changes in his body, a loud roar filled with anger was heard.

Ji Wuyue, who was standing in front, glared at Luo Feng angrily. It was a taboo for martial artists to be distracted during cultivation!
