Chapter 6 - Formless Sword Strike

A day pasted by swiftly and the new day began as the moon that covered the sky left to sleep and the bright sun came out.

It was just a normal day on the second day of school but the school had an uproar when everyone checked the Academy Daily News.

The Academy Daily News is just like what we read in the newspaper except there are only school related things inside and it is run by a club of students.

Today's shocking news, third year student Su Wuqin of the Qishi Family confess his love for Fairy Qin Yu from the Sheshou Family.

There was also news of Wei Xu defeating Lu Zingye but it was quickly washed away after the love confessions news article.

In Wei Xu room his figure could be seen mediating, darkness and lightning covering his body. The Will of Annihilation spreading around the entire room.

If anyone were to enter the room they would definitely be covered in sweat just from Wei Xu mediating.

His eyes opened slowly as the Will of Annihilation die down.

Wei Xu yawned, "What time is it?" He said out loud not expecting anyone to hear him.

"8AM! Its almost time for your classes!"

"Shadow? I completely forgot about you." Wei Xu called out as the young spirit appear.

"I was only gone for less than a day and you already forgot about me!" The spirit seem to tear up a little.

"It was a joke, totally a joke. How could I ever forget about you?" How could he ever forgot about his little spirit.

"Hmph! Well I have good news for you." The spirit harrumph then went to business.

"Since you awaken your power I went to my family and they told me I can now teach you abilities." Shadow explain to Wei Xu of the situation.

"For real?" Wei Xu eyes brighten, "Then when can we start?"

"How about after your classes?"

"No way, I might die if I went there."

"How comes?"

"Check."

The spirit then tapped Wei Xu softly head, "Hmm?" He raised his eyebrow as he saw all that happened when it was gone.

"HAHAHAH! You really kicked him there! Damn, that kick to the face was truly vicious aswell!" The spirit began to become its talkative persona again.

Wei Xu simply smiled knowing that keeping quiet was the only way to keep it from talking.

"Anyways since you've been learning the arts of using a long sword for so long then I will give you this ability." It tap his head again as words came into his mind.

Name : Formless Sword Strike

Rank : C (Can improve)

Rarity : Bronze (Can Improve)

Description : Forms an imaginable sword. To use this ability imagine a sword in your mind then place one hand to your waist. Once done a sword light will be created.

Thirty minutes pasted as Wei Xu and Shadow talk about how to use the ability.

"I think I got a glimpse of how it work." Wei Xu said as he got up from his bed and perform the movement to activate the ability.

He then placed his hand to his waist and close his eyes, imagine a long sword.

As he imagine it a black sword came out of thin air bringing forth the Will of Annihilation causing the room to once more be filled with it.

What was even strange is that lightning crackled around the blade of this imaginable sword.

"I can't continue." Sweat covered Wei Xu as his feet fell to the floor. The sword and the will of annihilation vanished all together.

Although he managed to increase his mana by two hundred with the use of Lu Zingye mana pills and mediating for five hours, the ability still drained all his mana.

"Did it work?" Wei Xu asked the little spirit.

"Yep! But it wasn't complete, that caused you to use up all your mana. If you were to have a full understanding of it then you would only need to use a quarter of your mana." The spirit explained.

They then spent another thirty minutes on mastering this ability.

"Good you learnt seventy percent of the ability. Now let's move to the next one...."

They were about to move to the next ability when Wei Xu watch rang with an announcement.

"Student Wei Xu, please come to class now!" An angry voice was heard.

"I guess we cannot continue." The spirit sighed.

"No worries, we can continue afterwards." Wei Xu was disappointed at first but brighten back up.

"At least we manage to learn one ability." He said in excitement as he put on his uniform and leave the dorm for class.

Just as he left his dorm a bat came flying toward his head.

Sensing this he easily dodged the attack, although he have zero stats on his body stats he have been training in brutal training since he was five. Making him extremely sensitive to sudden changes in the air and environment.

"So, you finally choose to leave your room! I never thought you would." An angry Lu Zingye came into view as he cracked his hands.

Ten boys stood behind him, all holding bats making Wei Xu cautious a little.

"Where are my mana pills!" Lu Zingye asked in a loud tone.

"I used them."

"All of them?!"

"Yeah!"

"Mother- Beat the crap out of him!" He commanded while pointed his finger at Wei Xu.

The boys then went running towards Wei Xu all ready to hit their bats at him.

"You think I'm afraid of you and your little gang?" His eyes flash with coldness as an air of arrogance and dominance came out along with his killing intent.

The boys that were rushing to beat Wei Xu stopped in their tracks as they saw a black mist around him making them tremble in fear.

"Why did you all stop! Beat him up!" Lu Zingye said not being aware of the situation he's in.

"Yeah he's just one kid get him."

"You're right!

"Beat him up!"

They all came jumping up to Wei Xu yet he didn't move, he wasn't afraid of the predicament he is in.

He rose his head letting them see his eyes. His eyes that was once filled with life became dull, death shined dimly in them.

The boys stopped in their tracks once more, this time dropping their weapons, their feet trembling looking like they cannot keep standing.

"You're all useless!" Lu Zingye said as his mana came forth ready to hit Wei Xu when a short knife struck, going right into his shoulder.

"Do you think because I'm manaless I was afraid of you?" Wei Xu slowly walked toward Lu Zingye. His hand held a short knife as he spin the knife around his fingers.

"In fact I was merely lazy to deal with someone as weak as you."
