âMy guess was right. Revolver-Skyblade couldnât defeat Qian JinâŠâ Christine said as she played with her long blonde hair. She had a smile on her face. âQian Jin, you have finally stepped into the game of the top ten. I want to see how you will escape this time!â
âQian Jin beat Revolver-Skyblade in a fight?â At almost the same time, the other top ten Grade One students smiled as they heard the news.
The guy that never participated in the fight between the top ten has finally been dragged into it. âIt looks like Iâm going to have more tags in my hand,â the other top ten students thought.
âTags⊠the person who designed the tag system is the worst.â
Qian Jin casually threw the four tags onto his bedside table, and then took his toiletries to the nearby shower. He cleaned the dust and sweat off his body and returned to his room.
Night was approaching and Rollin was waiting for him in the room. Rollin said to Qian Jin excitedly, âCome on, letâs go out and eat tonight! Itâs on me! You kicked Revolver-Skybladeâs ass today, so itâs worth celebrating!â
Qian Jin looked at the sun that was lowering below the horizon and asked Rollin seriously, âI donât understand. Why do you like that Julius so much? Whatâs so good about her?â
âEhâŠâ Rollinâs face became serious too. âShe is very pretty, and she is very sexy!â
âThatâs it?â Qian Jin still couldnât wrap his head around it; although there werenât a lot of girls who were as pretty as Julius, they certainly werenât that rare.
âAlsoâŠâ Rollin clapped his hands. âShe is very haughty. Her head is always up when she walks around, and she always had a cold and unconcerned expression on her face. This kind of icy beautyâŠâ
Qian Jin yawned. âSo, sheâs haughty because of her face? Is that something people value now? Compared to her, LunaâŠâ
Qian Jinâs expression changed drastically in a few seconds. It went from disdain to yearning, then to a sudden sadness. Rollin had never seen Qian Jin like this.
âQian Jin⊠Qian JinâŠâ Rollin whispered, âAre you okay?â
âAh?â Qian Jin stretched his upper body as he leaned against the wall that was still warm after being shined on by the sun the entire day. His moodiness disappeared, and his signature smile came back on his face. âWhat? Iâm feeling great.â
âHow about it?â Rollin suggested again, âLetâs go out and have a feast to celebrate!â
Qian Jin rubbed his growling stomach and laughed. âAlright! I fought for you today, so I will take the food as payment.â
âLetâs go!â Rollin dragged him. âYou beat Revolver-Skyblade which is worth celebrating. How about I bring my sister along? I think I told you about my sister. You are currently single, so how about I match you guys up? She is very pretty! I mentioned you to her already, and it seemed like she is interested in you.â
Qian Jin stared at Rollin in the eyes for a while, and a sympathetic expression appeared on his face. He patted Rollinâs shoulder and said, âBro, I know you are coming with good intentions, but you canât just lie to promote your sister. From your look, I can already imagine how your sister looks like.â
âF**k you man!â Rollin gave Qian Jin a front kick. âAlthough Iâm not too handsome, I have a great personality. Plus, my sister is nothing like me; she is really pretty!â
âOkay, I get it.â Qian Jin dodged Rollinâs kick and pushed him forward. âI know, but even if your sister is pretty, Iâm really poor, so I canât afford a girlfriend.â
âItâs okay, my sister is richâŠâ
âBut I donât want to be a boy toyâŠâ
âBro, although we are friends, I have to inform you that you donât qualify as a boy toy; you arenât good looking enough. You look very manly though. On the other hand, Durk, the number one warrior student in our grade, has the potential to be a boy toy.â
âMan, you hurt my feelings. You destroyed my dream of being a boy toy. Iâll have to eat a lot and make you poor after paying the bill.â
âQian Jin, Iâm serious. After you graduate from the Advanced Warrior Academy, you should come to my Falker Family. Although we are not a huge merchant family, we are pretty well off. Once you become the main guardian of our family and marry my little sister, then we will be a real family.â
âFriend, I can consider becoming the main guardian of your family, but after looking at your face, Iâm not really interested in becoming your brother-in-law.â
âHey man, you donât even know. My sister is the most popular girl at Oakland Business AcademyâŠâ
âReally? Damn bro, I feel bad for all the guys who are attending that academy. What kind of environment are they living in?â
Under the sunset, the two of them walked out of the academy and went to their favorite restaurant in the city while joking with each other. It was already nighttime when they finished eating.
Under numerous shining stars, Oaklandâs Warrior and Mage Academy was very quiet. Only the sounds of insects buzzing could be heard. Qian Jin looked at Rollin who had already fallen asleep; he was very thankful that this person appeared in his life. It was more than the monetary support that Rollin gave him. If it wasnât for Rollin, he would currently be in a more silent and depressed state.
Qian Jin leaned against the window and looked up at the stars. Most people who could experience what he had experienced would be very depressed. A big part of the reason why he was so optimistic was because of Rollin.
His vision started to blur as he continued looking up at the sky. The stars twinkled, and it looked like they were dancing around as they formed a blurry face. It was a girlâs face; she had a very charming smile on her face as she waved at him.
Qian Jin waved back subconsciously, but as soon as he moved, his eyes cleared, and the image disappeared. He sighed at the sky.

âI will become the wealthiest merchant in this world! Buddy, remember⊠Family GuardianâŠâ
Rollin murmured in his sleep. He couldnât forget about convincing Qian Jin to become the main guardian in his dreams. A warm smile popped on Qian Jinâs face. âFamily Guardian? If I do end up with that ability, I will definitely become your familyâs guardian; it doesnât matter if other families send me guardian invitations, nor does it matter how powerful they are! But for becoming your brother-in-law⊠Friend, it worries me just based on your look alone,â he thought.
Meditation was something that Qian Jin did every day before he went to bed.
In the quiet room, he closed his eyes and meditated for an hour. It was the same; he still couldnât sense any magic elements around him. He was disappointed. âIt looks like my deformed and incomplete spiritual power reallyâŠâ
Qian Jin took a long breath and stretched himself. After that, he grabbed the hat that looked like a wizard hat from the bottom of his bed. âEndless World, Endless World⊠I wish that you can help me get me stronger using any means. Then, I will be able to enter the Sunset Mountain alone and try to find the [Supreme Wind and Cloud Energy Training Scroll] that may or may not exist. That is my only opportunity to turn my life around!â he whispered to himself.
