We Agreed On Experiencing Life, So Why Did You Immortals Become Real? - Chapter 303: Kid, What's Your Name?

Before he knew it, Xiao Mo was already three years old.

During these three years, although Xiao Mo’s days were quite plain, he felt these plain days were very happy.

Not to mention, across several lifetimes, this was the first time Xiao Mo experienced maternal love, which naturally made him cherish it even more.

As for Xiao Mo’s sense of presence in the Xiao Manor, it could be said to be extremely low.

Especially after Prince Xiao’s other concubines gave birth to two more children, Xiao Mo’s sense of presence was almost zero but when Xiao Mo was two years and nine months old, a maid from the Xiao Manor came to find his mother.

What this maid said to his mother, Xiao Mo didn’t know, because Xiao Mo was carried away by Cuicui.

Xiao Mo only knew that when he returned, his mother was sitting in the courtyard in a daze, looking somewhat worried.

Through the conversation between his mother and Aunt Cui, Xiao Mo learned what had happened.

It turned out that children of the Xiao Manor, whether legitimate or born of concubines, when they reached three years old, had to be taken to practice martial arts.

So Xiao Mo, this bastard son, also had to go.

The only difference was that legitimate sons had specialized martial arts experts teaching them one-on-one but for bastard sons like Xiao Mo, there were only ordinary instructors, equivalent to outer sect disciples of a sect eating from a common pot.

However, compared to ordinary families, this was already quite good.

After all, many poor families spent their entire lives worrying about food and warmth, let alone practicing martial arts.

The reason his mother was somewhat worried was because the path of martial arts was arduous and difficult. His mother didn’t want him to work so hard but how could his mother possibly refuse?

“Mo’er…” That evening, Zhou Ruoxi held her child’s small hand, her expression troubled as she said, “Mother wants to tell you something.”

“Mother, what is it?” Xiao Mo’s large eyes blinked, pretending he knew nothing.

“It’s like this.” Zhou Ruoxi bit her thin lip lightly, “Because Mo’er, you’ve reached three years old, and the children of our Northern Pacification Prince’s Manor must practice martial arts, so in a few days, Mo’er, you have to go to the martial arts training ground to practice. Mo’er, are you willing?”

“Practice martial arts? Mother, what is practicing martial arts?” Xiao Mo tilted his head.

“Practicing martial arts is… is practicing some very impressive techniques. In the future, Mo’er will become a very impressive person.” Zhou Ruoxi thought for a moment and said.

“Then Mother, I want to practice martial arts!” Xiao Mo said earnestly, even with a bit of anticipation in his eyes.

“But Mo’er, practicing martial arts is very hard.” Zhou Ruoxi said reluctantly.

“It’s okay! Your child isn’t afraid! Once your child becomes a very impressive person, I can protect Mother, and no one will be able to bully Mother.”

Hearing the child’s words, Zhou Ruoxi’s expression froze slightly, her eyes carrying a faint mist of tears, “Mm, good. Then Mother will wait for Mo’er to practice martial arts well. After you’ve learned successfully, you can protect Mother.”

Xiao Mo vigorously nodded his head, “Your child will work hard!”

“Mo’er is so good. Come, let Mother hug you.”

Zhou Ruoxi embraced her child.

“Mother, are you crying?” Xiao Mo asked.

“No.” Zhou Ruoxi secretly wiped away her tears.

“Mother is lying. Mother is clearly crying.”

“Silly child.” Zhou Ruoxi smiled brilliantly, “Mother is happy.”

Seven days later, Zhou Ruoxi held the child’s hand and brought Xiao Mo to the Xiao Manor’s martial arts training ground.

As soon as they arrived at the training ground, Xiao Mo saw quite a few children around his age.

The oldest was five years old, and the youngest were three-year-old children like Xiao Mo.

These five-year-old children were all distant relatives of the Xiao Manor. The three-year-olds were mostly close relatives.

Children of distant relatives could only practice martial arts at five years old, which ensured the superiority of the Xiao Manor’s close bloodline.

Zhou Ruoxi saw the Xiao Manor’s instructor and quickly walked forward, saying a few words to this instructor, then took out a small piece of gold, wanting to secretly slip it to him but Xiao Mo only saw this instructor named Huang Shan push that small piece of gold back. No matter how much his mother insisted, he wouldn’t accept it.

He even seemed somewhat angry.

In the end, his mother could only give up. However, Xiao Mo was still quite curious.

Did this Instructor Huang have such integrity?

“Mo’er, Mother can’t stay here to accompany you. I have to go back first. When the you hour arrives, Mother will come pick you up.” Zhou Ruoxi looked reluctantly at her child, instructing him repeatedly, “Instructor Huang is quite strict. You must listen well to Instructor Huang’s words. Don’t make Instructor Huang angry, understand?”

“I understand, Mother.” Xiao Mo earnestly nodded his head.

“Then Mother will leave first.” Zhou Ruoxi still wanted to accompany her child a bit longer, but seeing Instructor Huang not far away already wanting to chase people away.

“Goodbye, Mother. I will definitely be good.”

“Mm, Mo’er is the best.”

Zhou Ruoxi rubbed Xiao Mo’s head before standing up, looking back every three steps as she walked away.

“Alright! You little things, all come over here!”

After Zhou Ruoxi left, Instructor Huang shouted several times, calling over all the little radishes nearby.

“Starting today, I am your instructor. You can call me Instructor Huang! Here, I don’t care about your backgrounds. You all have only one identity, and that is apprentice!

I specialize in spear techniques!

But before practicing the spear, practice the fist!

I will first teach you fist techniques.

Now! Run two laps around the training ground.

Ready, run!”

Following Instructor Huang’s command, the older children already began running laps around the training ground.

Those little brats who were scared silly, after being kicked a few times by Instructor Huang, quickly reacted and hurried to catch up.

After running, there was leg stretching, practicing the “middle section,” and standing meditation post, along with other basic skills.

Quite a few children practiced for a while, then sat on the ground crying loudly, but after being disciplined, they could only continue practicing.

By comparison, though only three years old, Xiao Mo didn’t cry out once. Even his horse stance was more solid than the others.

Seeing Xiao Mo practicing with proper form, Instructor Huang couldn’t help but feel somewhat surprised in his heart.

“Hey, you kid, come here!” Instructor Huang shouted at Xiao Mo.

Xiao Mo stood up and walked toward Instructor Huang.

Without another word, Instructor Huang grasped Xiao Mo’s various joints and bones, continuously manipulating them. Xiao Mo’s bones made cracking sounds.

After examining Xiao Mo’s bone structure, Instructor Huang was even more astonished in his heart.

He hadn’t expected to encounter such a good prospect here.

“Kid, what’s your name?” Instructor Huang asked.

“Xiao Mo.” Xiao Mo answered.

Instructor Huang remembered his name, “Xiao Mo, although you’re only three years old and don’t know anything, to practice martial arts, you must also have a goal!”

“I have a goal!” Xiao Mo answered.

“Oh?” Instructor Huang smiled, “Then kid, what’s your goal?”

“I want to protect my mother well! I also want to become a great general, so Mother can live a good life!”

“Protect your mother, become a great general?” Instructor Huang was stunned, then laughed heartily, “Hahahaha… This goal is indeed good, but kid, this isn’t something you can do just by saying it.”

Instructor Huang planted himself in a horse stance, extended his palm, and said to him, “Come, now, use all your strength and punch me.”

Xiao Mo blinked his eyes, not knowing what he wanted to do, but did as Instructor Huang said, using all his nursing strength to punch at Instructor Huang.

“Use more force!”

“Didn’t you eat?”

“Like this, how will you protect your mother?”

“Again! Punch!”

“And become a great general, let your mother live a good life? What bullshit are you talking! Give me strength!”

“That’s not bad!”

“Again!”

“Again!”
