Chapter 129: Another Hope
"Because my sister's face is not good-looking, I put on a veil to avoid trouble. The woman in white reached out and touched the little boy's head and said to the little boy.
"Then sister, can you let me see what you look like?" Looking at the somewhat lonely eyes of the woman in white, the little boy said seriously.
"If you want to see it, then my sister will show it to you, but let's say it first, don't laugh at my sister!"
I saw that under the veil was a petite and fair face, red lips like cherry petals, and a straight nose, but on this face that was almost overwhelming, there were two three-inch-long scars, one extending from the left corner of the mouth to the right chin, and the other extending from the root of the right ear to the lower lip.
Looking at the scar on the face of the woman in white, the little boy did not show the slightest disgust, but exclaimed: "My sister is really beautiful, just like a fairy!"
"Thank you, little one, it's the first time my sister has been praised in years. The words made the woman in white feel that her eyes were a little moist.
Looking back on these two scars on his face over the years, how many people who have pursued him have stayed away from him, alienated himself, and even insulted him, and forced the girl to wear a veil to cover up her face that should have amazed the world.
"Sister, you are so beautiful, why am I the only one who has praised you, is my sister only showing me my face. The little boy asked, puzzled.
"That's right, you're the only little guy my sister has seen her face. Listening to the little boy's words, the woman in white couldn't help but laugh.
"By the way, little one, do you remember where you are, what your last name is, or the names of your parents?" asked the woman in white.
"I don't remember, I don't remember anything, sister, can I follow you in the future! I feel a very warm feeling in you, I want to stay by your side believe it or not!" said the little boy with expectant eyes looking at the woman in white.
"Yes. Looking at the little boy's expectant gaze, the woman in white couldn't bear to refuse, and finally agreed to his request.
Seeing that the woman in white actually agreed, the little boy couldn't help jumping up happily and said, "Sister is so good, then sister, you can help me choose a name." โ
"Or you just have my surname, my surname is Yu, a single name and a heart character, you actually found it on a rock, then you are called Yu Shi, what do you think?" Yu Xin asked the little boy.
"My sister named me Yu Shi, so I will be called Yu Shi from now on. The little boy smiled happily.

Half a year later, in a simple wooden house called Huangling Town.
While Yu Xin was making breakfast, he shouted at Yu Shi, who was still sleeping lazily in the room: "Xiao Shi, today is the day you go to test the attributes, hurry up, otherwise you will be late." โ
"I know, sister!"
Stretching his waist, Yu Shi reluctantly climbed up from the bed, and after washing up, he sat down on the wooden chair and waited quietly for the breakfast that Yu Xin had made.
"Hurry up, the test starts right away, if you're late you'll have to wait for the next year. Yu Xin put two fried eggs, a chicken thigh, and two steamed buns in front of Yu Shi.
"Knowing sister, don't worry, I'll eat soon. As soon as he spoke, Yu Shi picked up the chicken leg on the table and gnawed it down.
"I don't know what kind of magic you will awaken, my sister is still looking forward to it. Looking at Yu Shi, who was gobbling up, Yu Xin's eyes were full of tenderness and expectation.
"Sister, I'm done eating, let's go, or I'll be really late!" Yu Shi stuffed the last omelette into the middle and rushed out of the door.
"I told you to get up early, you don't listen to it now, so I'm in a hurry!" Yu Xin sighed and began to clean up the dishes and chopsticks on the table.
"Get out of the way, get out of the way, I'm going to be late. Yu Shi was a fast runner on the street, and from time to time he would bump into a stall selling vegetables.
"Xiao Shi, you bumped into my dish again, I will definitely tell your sister!" The owners who were bumped into the vegetable stall by Yu Shi were all scolding, and then reluctantly began to clean up the stall.
At this moment, outside a school gate, a child about seven years old is lining up, and at the front of the line is an old man about sixty years old and a crystal, accompanied by a child to put his palm on it, the crystal released different lights, and the old man is looking at the light to record and announce.
"Yun Feng, earth attribute, affinity level five, general, pass, next. โ
"Fang Yang, fire attribute, affinity level four, poor, pass, next. โ
With the old man's announcement, the team moved forward a little.
"There are so many people, I knew that I wouldn't come so soon, and I bumped into so many vegetable stalls, and when I got home, my sister was going to talk about me again. After Yu Shi spared his hair with some annoyance, he could only be at the back of the line.
"Xiao Mu, wood attribute, affinity level seven, relatively excellent, passed, next. โ
The old man looked at the little boy in front of him, showed a charitable smile and said, "Xiao Mu, your talent is not bad, in the future, you can only cultivate hard and become a good warlock." โ
"Yes, I'll work hard to cultivate," Xiao Mu replied excitedly.
"Well, I believe you, next!" the old man patted Xiao Mu on the shoulder, and then continued to say to the children in line.
"It's finally my turn, and my legs are almost standing. โ
Looking at the team of only five people, Yu Shi shook his legs to relieve the soreness in his legs.
At this moment, I saw a strange crystal on the side of the old man, and a dazzling golden light was released in the hand of a young man in coarse linen clothes, which made everyone present squint.
And when the old man saw the light from the crystal in the little boy's hand, he couldn't help but even tremble a little in his voice, "Metallic, affinity level eight!!"
"It's been many years, and our Huangling Academy has finally had a student with an affinity level of eighth. Between the words, there was a trace of sparkle in the old man's eyes.
"That, may I ask if I passed!" Seeing the old man's excited reaction, the little boy who had tested the level eight intimacy asked a little timidly.
"Of course you can pass, by the way, what is your name, child!" said the old man excitedly.
"My name is Yao Fei. The boy's tone was still a little cowardly.
"Well, Yao Fei, you go to the school and wait first, and when I'm done with the things in hand, I'll go to you!" the old man patted Yao Fei on the shoulder and said.
After Yao Fei left, the old man said to the children in line with hope, "Next!"
As the last few children tested their talents one after another, the old man's eyes, which were still a little expectant, gradually disappeared, and finally only a one-armed little boy was left in front of the old man.
"Place your hand on the elemental crystal. The old man said to Yu Shi a little lonely.
But the next moment, the old man's originally lonely expression instantly became uncalm when he saw the crystal in Yu Shi's hand releasing the purple gold light.
"The thunder element, it turned out to be a thunder element that is difficult for one person out of 100,000 people. The old man's voice suddenly became sharper, as if he had been greatly stimulated.
"Is the thunder element very powerful?" asked Yu Shi suspiciously.
"Of course, the thunder element is known as the most penetrating element, and it is extremely rare!" replied an academy teacher beside the old man.
"That means, my talent is very strong!" Yu Shi instantly became excited.
"Although it is a thunder element, it's just a pity that you only have a fifth-level affinity, plus you only have one arm, I'm afraid your cultivation path will be much more difficult than ordinary people in the future!" The old man was originally extremely excited and fiery, but after seeing the level of purple gold light in the crystal, and Yu Shi's broken left arm, he instantly cooled down by half.
"Is there only a fifth-level elemental intimacy? Forget it, just be able to cultivate, it doesn't matter if it's difficult for him, as long as it can make me strong and protect my sister in the future." Yu Shi said secretly in his heart.
"Today the test is officially over, and now I will stand beside me by name, and the rest of you will wake up together. The old man said to the people standing in the students.
"Xiao Mu, Yao Fei, Yu Shi. โ
As the old man read his name, three little boys came up to him.
"Follow me. As he spoke, the old man walked towards a classroom, followed by three young boys.
"Do you know why I called the three of you out alone?" the old man asked the three of them as he walked into the classroom.
"Don't know?" all three shook their heads, indicating that they didn't know.
"In six years, it will be the day of the competition in each college, and then I need you to get a good ranking among them, but I have a wish for many years, as long as you can promise me, I can teach you alone for six years, I wonder if you are willing?" said the old man.
"I do. At about the same time, the three of them replied in the affirmative almost at the same time.
"Thank you for agreeing to fulfill my wish, rest assured, I will do my best to teach you. The old man bowed to the three children in front of him, who were not even a fraction of his age.
"You can go back, I'll be waiting in this room tomorrow morning at seven o'clock so don't be late. With that, the old man walked out of the classroom.
"Sister, I'm back!" Yu Shi happily returned to the cabin, and wanted to tell Yu Xin the good news that he could practice the thunder technique, but after looking around, he couldn't find Yu Xin's figure.
"Huh, where is my sister, going to buy groceries again?" Yu Shi returned to his room with doubts.
"How can there be a letter here, is it my sister who keeps a letter for me?"
Picked up the letter and opened it, but when Yu Shi saw the contents, he froze in place, and the letter fell out of his hand.
