"Brother Sachin." At the youth's side, the teen girl stopped. She faced Sachin Joshi and bowed respectfully. Her beautiful and gentle face showed a elegant smile which would make the surrounding girls jealous.
"What qualifications do I have right now for you to call me that?" He faced the girl that could be considered the clan's radiant pearl and said bitterly. She, after being down-hearted for an extremely short while, continued to maintain her respect.
"Brother Sachin, you once said to Jhanvi before to take on anything, one must first be able to let go. One is only truly free when he can take on and let go easily." Jhanvi Joshi said gently, her smiling face full of warmth.
"Haha, truly free? I only know how to say it. Look at me now, do I look like a free person? This world wasn't mine to begin with." Sachin Joshi laughed at himself, saying dispiritedly.
Facing Sachin Joshi's somber mood, Jhanvi Joshi's fine brows furrowed a little, and she said seriously "Brother Sachin, though I don't know what's happening to you, Jhanvi Joshi honestly believes that you will stand again and reclaim your lost glory and respect…" She stopped for a moment, her white tender face reddening a little. "Back then, there were a lot of people who were attracted to you…"
"Haha…" Hearing the girl's whole-hearted truth, he laughed awkwardly but didn't say anything else. Other people would be swayed by it, but he did not have the qualifications nor the mood. Instead, he silently turned around and walked away from the square.
Standing still and facing the lonely back of the youth, she hesitated for a while before chasing after him and walking side-by-side with him.
The moon was like a silver plate and the stars filled the sky.
At the summit of the cliff, Sachin Joshi lay on the grass and in his mouth was a strand of green grass. He chewed it slightly and let the bitterness spread into his mouth slowly.
He raised his white palm and put it in front of him, blocking the moon and only letting some moonlight pass through the gaps between his fingers. He looked at the giant circular silver moon in the sky.
"Ai…" Thinking back the testing in the afternoon, Sachin Joshi sighed lightly. He lazily pulled his hand back and rested both hands on his head. He looked absent-minded.
"3 months already, huh?" Asoft voice that suddenly was spat out from the young teen without any warning.
In Sachin Joshi's mind, there was a secret that only he himself knew. He wasn't a person from this world. More accurately, his soul wasn't from this world. He was from a world called Desolate World . As for unexplainable mystery of why he would be here, he himself had no clue. However, after living here for some time, he slowly realised. He passed through to the other side!
As he spends the some time here, he slowly came to understand bits and pieces of this continent.
This continent was called the Falan Continent. On the continent, there wasn't many tales of magic users and their effects, but rather, Falan was the main star.
On this big piece of land, the training of Falan had become commonplace after the hard work of countless individuals who continued to train beyond generations, expanding the knowledge surrounding Falan all the way to the top. Falan and mankind are one and the same in everyday life and as such, Falan is extremely important in the continent. It could be called irreplaceable!
As the number of levels in Falan kept increasing, so did the number of ways to train it. Some were better than others, as expected.
After going through the analysis, the Falan rankings in the Falan Continent got split into four different classes – Tiant, Dians, Xuani, Huain.
And every class was split further into Low, Medium and High ranks!
The Falan techniques you learned also determined how strong you would be. For example, if a person practiced a Xuani class Medium rank technique, he would naturally be stronger than a person who practiced a Huain class High rank technique.
In the Falan Continent, to differentiate the strong from the weak, there are 3 criterias that need to be looked at.
First, and also the most important, is your natural body strength. If a person only has a 1 level of strength, even if he practiced the Tiant class High rank techniques, he wouldn't be able to beat a Huain class Combat Master.
Next is technique level. If two people of the same innate strength were to battle, the one with the better technique will obviously win.
Lastly is Falat Technique.
Falat Technique is a special kind of skill that is used when controlling Falan and in the land of Falan, Falat Technique is also separated into Tiant, Dians, Xuani, Huain.
Falan in the continent speaks for itself, but Falat Technique is different. Almost everyone starts off with a Falat Technique class of Huain. If you wanted to learn more advance control skills, you would need to join a sect or enroll in a Falnt Technique school.
Of course, there are some who, by chance, managed to learn the skills that others before have left behind, or those who have compatible Falat Techniques. For these people, their combat level might be slightly higher than normal.
Relying on these 3 aspects, you can determine who is strong and who is weak. All in all, if you managed to learn a high level Falat Technique, the benefits in the future would be enormous.
However, high level Falat Techniques are really hard to come by as a commoner. Those that are open to the public are normal, Huain class techniques. For those bigger clans or small sects, Xuani class techniques are the norm. For example, in Joshi's clan, their highest level technique was only practiced by the clan leader – Lion Wind Strike. It was a wind style Xuani class Medium rank Falat Technique.
