Martial Void King Chapter 1-2

A/N: So as a real novice writer, I put the first 6 chapters as really short. As a result they are combined chapters. Please bear with it, it does become normal on chapter 7.

Chapter 1

Without replying Chu Shen set down the disks and quickly left for cup by the well in the corner. Master Lang watched him leave with a pained expression.

Chu Shen always had the heavens gift of abnormal strength, he could as a six year old pick up 80 pounds, which he used to forge. Upon finding his talent for forging Master Lang took him as his direct disciple.

The Gauntlets

A young boy came into the shop with a small wheelbarrow being pushed in front of him. The wheelbarrow was filled with rusted pieces of armor, weapons, and other junk. He brought it into the shop and glanced around. Upon seeing Chu Shen his face lit up and he walked over towards Chu Shen. “Junior brother Shen, I have some scrap metal for you.”

Chu Shen nodded but didn't stop his work. “Okay Senior brother Lan, just leave it on the table.” Chu Lan was a disciple of the Chu Sect who often visited the shop. He would bring with him old or useless armor and weapons to be melted down into new items.

Chu Lan started laying down the items while Chu Shen finished up his work. Turning around, Chu Shen inspected the items that Chu Lan had brought in this time. On the table was a rusted pair of gauntlets, a sword broke in two, a helm with a dent in it, and a metal dagger in perfect condition. “Was there anything interesting in this batch Senior Lan?”

Chu Lan shook his head. “No, all this is from that old man that managed the shop down the road. He ran out of all his goods except these so he decided to leave to someplace, no one knows where.”

“I have to go prepare for the sects trials, you should too if you want to become an inner disciple.”

“…”

“Oh come on, you cannot keep being depressed like this. A frog in a well does not know the extent of the earth. There may be a treasure that can give you meridians, but unless you are a core disciple the sect wouldn’t give it to you.”

'What brat, don’t want to become a disciple of the great me? Would you rather never be able to pass the King stage? I guarantee that without my instruction you could never pass this stage.'
