Surprise me, Jaden

809 Words
The strength test of the female participants was complete but now it was the turn of male participants and the next participant for the strength test was Jaden. "Be extremely careful Jaden. You know that there will be huge rocks everywhere,``warned Darren Shiba with a sneer. In the sitting area of Clan Coliseum, a warrior laughed and said, "Jaden, oh my God, he is humiliating himself. How can it be possible for him to lift a Stone Pillar? It’s over 100 kg. He can’t even wash the marrow or break out of the channels. Three months is too short!” “The Zara lifted the Stone Pillar and she is only seven. But look at Jaden. He is 17 now, and he can’t even do that. That’s shameful!” “Can he just go back and hide? He’s not supposed to be here to attend the Annual Clan Assessment.” Jaden was obviously in his own world now. He ignored the malicious comments and walked toward the Martial Arts arena with a calm, steady gaze. On his way, he met Clara, who had just come back. They stopped and stared at each other. There were only five steps between them. Clara stared at Jaden with a close gaze. Shaking her head slightly, she said,”Cousin, you shouldn’t be here for the Annual Clan Assessment. Even if you are able to wash marrow and break out of the channels, it is impossible for you to lift the Stone Pillar. Don’t you know that it is not just about you? It is also about the Shiba Clan. Why? Why are you here?” Jaden frowned. He looked at Clara and said, “I admit that you are quite outstanding and talented, however, it doesn’t mean that you can denigrate others.” Now Clara’s eyes were filled with disappointment. “Can’t you just listen to me? Maybe living a normal life is the best for you. You don’t have to cultivate, it is just not suitable for you.” She had planned to convince Jaden to quit because they had played together many years ago. Their great times together had pushed her to help Jaden now. “He is so stubborn. Who the hell does he think he is?” Clara felt that there was nothing she could say to Jaden, that stupid, stubborn boy. “All right, take care, Jaden.” With her head raised high, Clara walked toward the exit of the Martial Arts arena. They passed each other, going in opposite directions. The moment that Clara left the Coliseum, she was surrounded by many young warriors. These young men admired and praised her, treating her like a diamond. That was because she was just 15 and was able to lift a Stone Pillar weighing approximately 1,000 kg. In addition, she could toss that kind of Stone Pillar to a maximum distance of 15 meters. Many warriors older than her could not do that at all. Most importantly, she was elegant and gorgeous. As one of the top four most beautiful girls in the Merawu Commandery, she was meant to be loved as god’s favored daughter. “Congrats, Clan Head Xavier, we just witnessed the birth of another genius, Clara! We won’t be able to find another one of the younger generation in Imperial City as talented as her!” exclaimed a famous Martial Artist from Imperial City. The leader of the Green Jade Clan smiled and said, “I have heard that Clara and Marcus will get engaged. They are meant to be together!” Others’ compliments made Xavier Redwing, the Head of the Redwing family, feel very proud. Of course, other eyes were on Jaden in the Martial Arts arena. It was not difficult to see that they were waiting for this prince to disgrace himself. Families that had close relationships with the Shiba Family were all familiar with the name of this prince. He was famous for his poor health. Marcus and Jaden had both inherited genes from the Shiba Clan. But they were so different. Marcus was a genius in people’s eyes, he was a hero of Imperial City as well. However, Jaden was an i***t in others’ minds, people did not expect anything from him. Without any doubt, Jaden’s presence today, attending the Annual Clan Assessment, was considered a joke. However, there was one exception—Tara, who was sitting outside the Clan Coliseum. When she saw Jaden walking into the Martial Arts arena, she became very concentrated with her gorgeous eyes wide open. “That’s exciting. Now surprise me, Jaden!” A hint of a smile crossed her lips.
