The Geared Immortal

Chapter 1085

(Unedited)

…

The whole town is abuzz because of 2 pieces of news that began to grab the attention of everyone. The first one is the start of the special enrolment for students with special talents but could only reach the 1st level Ki fighter.

This is the talk of the entire kingdom and what the royal family has given importance to, so the whole town is abuzz because of this piece of news. And after waiting, the time has come for those hopefuls to enter the academy.

The second one is something that everyone did not expect to appear. Well, some family actually has it, but only their patriarchs. But only those in the top families and clans in Ogden town have it. In fact, one can only count them with one finger.

But of course, that is a secret no one knew of its reality.

But to everyone's surprise, one of Ogden town's biggest auction houses is going to hold an auction of 5 of these mysterious spatial items. The auction house called these things, storage crystals, but the owner seems to call it, 'Mule'.

And so today the town is lively once again as everyone is excited to see the enrolment in the morning and the auction at night.

But of course, only those that belong to noble families could attend the auction. But that did not stop the hopefuls to get a glimpse of the mysterious storage crystals.

Today, Xin Ja has decided to go to school, while Yao Xue decided to stay at home and hide from the world. They did not know if the Yao family could discover her, but it is better for her to be hidden, and she actually prefers that way.

"Are your things ready? How about your snacks? And also…" Yao Xue said as she checked everything that Xin Ja has brought.

"They are all here… Do not worry too much… Sister… Hehe…" he teased.

Upon hearing this, Yao Xue could not help but feel warmth in her heart. She might not know Xin Ja for long, but she could feel his sincerity towards her. Plus, having a genius like him as a brother is something a big sister could be proud of.

"That's Big Sister for you…" she smirked.

She could only act this way in front of Xin Ja.

"Alright… you two, Xin Ja go now… Good luck… son…" Xin Jong said as he hugged Xin Ja tightly.

"Geez, dad. I'm just taking a test… It's not that big of a deal…" he said with a helpless smile.

For the past few days, he has read all the books that Divine Doctor Ba has given him. In fact, he is a bit amazed at the medical records he has read and it made him feel astonished at Divine Doctor Ba's medical ability.

In fact, the metallic frost ore poisoning is actually very easy for Divine Doctor Ba to take care of. However, it seems that he foolishly falls for the old man's tricks.

But having a master who would give everything to him on a whim is something that Xin Ja did not expect. Divine Doctor Ba actually gave him his life's work. That was truly such an honor for Xin Ja, so deep in his heart, he has already treated Divine Doctor Ba as his second master.

He walked to the Ogden Academy that morning and was shocked to see the crowd blocking the gate.

Among the crowd, he could hear someone shouting as if they are selling themselves just to get a chance to enter the academy.

"I want to enroll, I am still able to serve the kingdom. With my smithing skills, I would end up number one… Haha…"

"Shut up old man! You're already a grandpa what else could you learn in Ogden academy? Plus, even after so many years, you're still at 1st level, how could you not feel ashamed?"

"I want to enter runemaster classes. I heard there are many beautiful students in there…"

"Yes, the fairies of Ogden town could be seen in that place."

"Fools… If you go there, you will only see shut-ins and nerds in runemaster classes. There are only a few beauties in that class. If you really want to see more fairies… then choose alchemy class… that is the place…"

The crowd is a bit rowdy as everyone excitedly discusses while waiting for the academy gates to open.

It did not take long before the large gates open and a number of faculty staff began walking out. They set up a table and some chairs and immediately commanded everyone to line up.

An hour later…

It was already Xin Ja's turn.

When the faculty staff looks at his identification plate a frown appears on his face. He quickly checked the Ki in Xin Ja's body and shakes his head.

"You do not have to enter the gate… You did not pass…" he said while waving his hand.

Xin Ja was stunned, he was a bit taken aback at the reaction of the man. He could sense some traces of resentment in the man's eyes. He did not know what he did wrong and was a bit confused. So he just stood in there spacing out.

"Get out of here!" the man shouted.

This caught the attention of the others in the area. The eyes of everyone were immediately in Xin Ja and the man's direction.

"What? You want to... enter the academy? Tell me, how could we accept the well-known trash of the town, Xin Ja…" the man said with a mocking tone.

When everyone heard this their eyes were immediately planted on Xin Ja. It quickly made him feel uneasy and ashamed. He wanted to be angry and for some unknown reason, some kind of hidden killing intent is already rising out of his heart.

Xin Ja knew that he could not let it happen. As someone who dislikes attention, the situation right now is making him feel confused, embarrassed, and irritated at the same time. At this time, he suddenly wanted to run away and go back home. If he could he would want to hide in his room and cry this out all day.

He felt wronged, he felt persecuted, and he is starting to feel pity for himself. He feels like he could not do anything at this moment.

The mocking voices and jeering of the crowd worsen the deep resentment in his heart. Then that strong killing intent once again began to crawl out of his heart. It was as if some kind of voice in his mind is telling him to kill everyone.

As he looks at them, their faces look like that bald guy inside the prison who beat him up and wanted to make him suffer. Their laughing faces make him feel like losing himself at that instant.

Meanwhile, seeing the expression of the young man, the man who started everything is glaring at Xin Ja's figure. If he could he would want to kill the young man.

The reason for this is because, of the tragedy that his brother has suffered.

That's right… he is one of the brothers of the head of the gang that was purged by the town. At that time, he was with his brother and secretly escaped. At that time, he saw his brother entering the room. He did not know what happened next, but the next thing he knew, he heard his brother suffering in that place.

All of his limbs were twisted and broken. Even the medical masters and doctors could not fix him ever again. He could only live like that for the rest of his life.

He truly regretted escaping at that time.

He began searching for that boy who looks like a demon to him.

Then he discovered that the boy is actually the son of Xin Jong. When he discovered this, Xin Jong is now well-known in the town.

With his strength, he knew that he could not defeat him. Plus, he discovered that his son seem to have been turned into a fool. For him, that is good news, but still, he wanted that kid dead. And yet no matter how he tries he could not enter their manor.

And so, he began to work hard and grow until he became a 5th level Ki fighter. He also began showing his prowess as a combat master. This is due to the teaching of his elder brother that was crippled by that young boy.

He enters the Ogden Academy to be able to get more resources for his growth. He has already planned his revenge, and as he grows, he could already see it coming.

Then suddenly, the kingdom announces the enrolment of low-level Ki fighters. He volunteered as a staff to earn more.

But who would have known that he would see his sworn enemy in this place? He could not control himself and quickly acted out. In fact, he was a bit regretful of that decision. He could have accepted the lad and then use his authority in school to slowly teach that boy a lesson.

But it seems that it was too late.. When he saw the expression of the boy, he suddenly had an idea.
