Arcadia Chronicles: The Story Of Lien Hua - Chapter 8
Seeing her two friends like her almost in tears with joy, Lien Hua could not help but smile at this sight that will be imprinted on her mind, seeing that no one had the intention to start talking, she spoke first:
”Did you see that there was nothing to worry about? I knew from the beginning that we would not split even this time, now let’s go before our custodians die of anxiety to know our results”.
Lin Yue, the first to emerge from her state of euphoria, nodded her head and looked at Chen Huang:
”You know, i never thought even a kid as brash as him could have such a high talent, tch”.
Feeling challenged and coming out of his euphoric state, Chen Huang as if someone had stepped on his tail:
”And I certainly never thought that a piece of ice like you would even have any talent”.
After they had said these things, all three new spiritual masters laughed and walked to a street on their right which passed through the tallest buildings in the city full of other disciples, and it wasn’t even midday.
Talking about their future lives as spiritual masters and other topics, they began to think about what their next day as official spiritual masters would be like.
Lien Hua already had a clear idea of how the next few days will follow, but she still made the doubt remain in the heads of her two friends, a bit for fun, a bit ‘also to make them even happier.
Going further and further, after a few minutes, they found themselves at the exit of the city where there was a road leading in front of the big arch of their houses.
In addition to all the other caretakers, parents and other relatives of the other children who were with them, Lien Hua and her group immediately noticed their 3 caretakers. They began to run towards them with huge smiles.
Together with Old Li looking at the huge smiles, the two custodians could not help before they smiled too. As soon as they arrived, they began to walk on the long stairs that would take them home.
During the little trip, Chen Huang was mainly the one who talked continuously about the altar’s location, the process and how strong he was in countering the pain of the awakening.
This sentence was remarked by Lin Yue telling the truth that he had started to cry immediately after the awakening was over and that he had stopped only when they were coming out of the altar.
This remark silenced Chen Huang and caused him to become red of embarrassment, which made everyone present laugh, even the other people who were with them.
As soon as the first houses began to be seen, Lien Hua turned to Old Li and asked if they could all stop for lunch and before Li Wei could answer, her two friends immediately begged their custodians to go there.
Receiving an attack from three fronts, the poor custodians could only accept, and they all began to walk towards Lien Hua’s house.
As soon as they all sat down in the little girl’s little house, Chen Huang revealed the mystery that before they did not want to tell their custodians, namely the degree of their talent.
”Anyways, I wanted to finally announce that all three of us got great grades, in fact now you’ll have to call us the medium-trio!”
Hearing the horrible name Chen Huang gave them, both Lin Yue and Lien Hua laid their hands before their eyes in shame, not seeing the almost unbelieving faces of their custodians.
All three, mainly the two keepers of her friends who discovered themselves to be Guo Feng and Wei Song, with almost their mouths on the ground in shock, would never have imagined that they could have such high grades.
The only one not very shocked but always incredulous was Li Wei, expected that she had a good enough rank because of her intelligence, but he did not expect it so high. But in the end, he was always happy that finally, someone he loved became so talented.
Raising their heads and seeing all the shocked faces, all three began to laugh maliciously having a little pride in this grade even Lien Hua could finally have a little out of character moment, in the end, it was a moment of celebration.
And so the afternoon passed and the evening came between chatter, jokes and various topics mostly told by Chen Huang, who turned out to be a good storyteller.
Greeting her friends and their caretakers, only Lien Hua and Old Li found themselves in the house who finally moved close to her and hugged her after everyone had left.
Lien Hua was shocked, it took her a few seconds to react since it was the first time that Old Li had shown so much affection, and she also hugged him.
After this, Li Wei said a few simple words: ‘I’m very proud of you’.
And those words will remain forever in Lien Hua’s heart.
After this moment of affection, everything went back to normal, Old Li went back to cooking since evening came and Lien Hua remained there still a little incredulous.
She came out of her incredulous state when Li Wei announced that the food was ready. Not even the news of her medium rank had surprised her as much as the unexpected hug of Old Li.
Looking at him a bit and scrutinizing him, Lien Hua finally smiled, like that, she spent the evening with him.
Waking up that morning much more energetic than yesterday, she saw that in the usual place where her white sect uniform without decoration was, which denoted that she was not a real spiritual master, a white uniform with blue embroidery appeared was a lot more classy.
Getting up and taking the piece of clothing in her hands, she could see that it was much smoother and of higher quality than her old garment. She could also notice how all the embroidery in blue cloth created floral motifs and small clouds that congregated in front of the chest, creating a very detailed lotus flower.
‘This is an official uniform of the outer sect’ Lien Hua thought, who did not wait for a second longer to put it on, noting how much more comfortable it was and it kept her warmer than the other uniform.
Touching the very long and wide sleeves, usual in this world’s clothes, and this sect, she felt the door open. She saw Old Li looking at her with very affectionate eyes who moved his hands towards her: ”Well now i will take you to your teaching room which is that of the highest rank, Being that you and your friends have this year’s greatest talent”.
Without waiting for anything else, Lien Hua put on her new shoes also decorated, and began to follow Li Wei who had already set off towards these halls that she had never seen before.
She remarked with disbelief that not even after a few minutes of walking, they went on and on getting closer and closer to the mountain. Right in front of it, there was an arch with stairs leading up to where she could see several buildings.
Passing through the arch with the words ‘Outer Sect Structures 1 Mountain’ she could see that the name indicated that in addition to the fact that there were more structures, it said that they were only those of the first mountain, she did not dare imagine how big this sect was in reality, having only visited the city and that was already very big for Lien Hua.

Going up the stairs, they arrived at a fairly large square with several vast structures, the first three on the left denoted that they were the halls where they would take lessons from some Elder of the sect.
The other two on the right, after asking Li Wei, Lien Hua discovered they were a sort of structure where they gave monthly resources and the mission room.
Besides this, various arches led to other parts inside the mountain, and the whole square was decorated with some saplings.
All the structures were built in ancient Chinese style and were very decorated; they were imposing and robust.
Moving to the classrooms on the left, and as soon as they found themselves in front of the first hall, Lien Hua could see that she and Old Li were the only one near the classroom, there was no living soul besides them.
Looking at Li Wei, Lien Hua asked the latter where the others were, receiving only one answer: ‘Better to be early than late’.
Looking at him with a rather strange eye, she didn’t notice much, after not even 10 minutes that they were there, she began to feel the first steps going up the stairs and turning towards them she could already notice how many new disciples like her were starting to populate the area.
She also noticed her two friends in the crowd and waited for them, then after greeting them, Lien Hua also said goodbye to Old Li and went into the smaller structure that was also the most important, the first hall.
