20 Chapter Seventeen: Preparing to Go Home
Translator: 549690339
At the entrance of the First Cultivation Ground, there was a billboard drawing a massive crowd of trainees, all wearing faces of surprise. Excitement, anticipation, and yearning were noticeable among the crowd. Apart from a few cultivation enthusiasts led by Tang Peng who lost interest after a quick scan, all the clans’ disciples were huddled around the billboard, engaged in animated discussions.

The billboard read: According to the revised holiday schedule of the First Cultivation Ground, the originally scheduled holiday every third of March has been changed to every third of each month. Applications can be filed with the training hall’s responsible instructor. Leave days cannot be accumulated and are forfeited if not taken each month. – Battle Hall Management, Sect Head Tang Sen.

“Oh, my goodness, that’s great, I miss my mom a bit.” Tang Ya, holding her younger sister Tang Zhen by the hand, was joyously looking at the announcement.

For the two young ladies who had just entered the Martial Hall and could go home to visit their family, this public notice was heartwarming.

Unike the newcomers who had just entered the Martial Hall, the senior trainee’s gathering was not as simple as it seemed.

Most public notices were signed by the management, the sect head, and the person in charge. Surprisingly, this announcement which concerned the holiday adjustment of the First Cultivation Ground did not bear the imprint of Chief Instructor Tang Bin, which puzzled many.

The trainees huddled around the bulletin failed to notice that Tang Bin had quietly arrived behind them.

Seeing the mere piece of public notice evoked so much joy among the trainees, he shouted furiously: “Done reading? Assemble immediately.”

The trainees scattered in all directions like frightened birds.

South Ninth District, Building No. 5, 7th Floor

“Brother! We can go home.” Little boy Tang Xing’s face gleamed with excitement.

“Not yet, it’s still two months away.” Tang Luo, engrossed in reading a martial arts secret scroll, put the book aside and rubbed his tired eyes upon hearing the little boy’s words.

“Brother, it’s true, the holiday for the First Cultivation Ground has changed, we can go home for three days every month.” The little boy sat next to Tang Luo’s desk, his face beaming with happiness. “I miss Little Nuannuan.”

“Eh, would Uncle Bin agree?” Tang Luo hesitated. Given that he was a martial arts instructor in Cultivation Ground No.7, he wasn’t aware of the new notice at the First Cultivation Ground, but the content of the notice did raise some doubts.

The cultivation sites of Martial Hall were all enclosed, allowing the trainees to concentrate on their training. The First Cultivation Ground, as the model of the Martial Hall, had even more stringent standards.

Even the legitimate offspring of the familial clans, with the mansion just a wall’s distance away from Martial Hall, could only have a holiday once every three months and family visits were not allowed.

This was done to foster a stronger sense of collective honor in a closed environment. This notice seemed to be a perk for the clan’s disciples in the First Cultivation Ground. Could Tang Bin’s strict persona agree to this?

“Brother, I don’t understand what you’re talking about,” The little boy shook his head, confused. What does the holiday in the training ground have to do with Uncle Bin? But things are so complicated, I don’t want to think about it. I’d rather think about the delicious food and various snacks at home.

Martial Hall food is definitely no match for home-cooked meals. Just thinking about eating home cooked food, Little Tang Xing could almost feel his saliva excreting rapidly.

Seeing Little Tang Xing’s jubilant face, it was evident that he was homesick.
