By rising of dawn the next day, Bing Yuanshan was sitting outside of the number one room; patiently waiting with a map in his hands.
On this map there was a location circled a hundred miles from the Spirit Sword Mountain range. This area was a lush forest region with winding hills and hundreds of horrible beasts that would devour whoever they got their grubby paws on.
Creeeeeeak.
The door to the room creaked open, standing there was an adolescent with a look of divine pride on his face; for he was about to turn stone into gold.
"You have the map I see." Were Sha Ku's words, looking down at the chubby figure, who instantly leapt to his feet.
Whoosh!
Swiftly and decisively Sha Ku snatched the map from his hands while holding two paper scrolls behind his back.
Quickly memorising the map, he nodded, "Good, good. This deed will not go unrewarded." Sha Ku snapped his fingers, causing the map to go up in cinders.
Handing the two scrolls over to Bing Yuanshan he locked eyes with him, "Memorise these, then destroy them. Believe me; you don't want to be caught with these."
He stepped out of his door and started to walk away before Bung Yuanshan even got the chance to say, 'thank you.'

Before long Sha Ku arrived at a place titled, "Spirit Sword Store."
It was at this place that students would gather rewards contribution points. In the shop was an older man with a pipe in his mouth, rocking back and forth in an old rocking chair. His hair stuck out at the sides, and his eyebrows came halfway off his head.

"Ahhh! A new whippersnapper, what are you here for?" The old man chuckled in his wry voice.
Sha Ku immediately took a bow; he couldn't detect this old man's cultivation level, making the hairs on the back of his neck stand up.
"Greetings Senior, this young one wants to enquire about the reward and contribution point system in the sect." Sha Ku asked humbly, showing the utmost respect.
The old man nodded, taking a large puff on his pipe, taking in all the air and coughing it out, "Cough! Cough! That's some good pipeweed." The old man chuckled, his eyes going red around the irises.
"Listen here, kid, the sect wants to bleed every service possible from you. You aren't going to find anything easy, and it'll kill most of the students before they can become an elder. But for those that succeed, it'll create an inbuilt dependency and loyalty to the sect." The elder spoke, taking another large puff on his pipe.
"The reward system is straightforward; even a rooster could understand it. The sect will reward you for the heads of beasts and sect enemies alike; there are missions as well, but we don't offer them on the lower peaks as they're considered too hard." The old man scratched his chin, nodding, "Yep, that's about it…"
Sha Ku looked up; brows perched. This old man was odd. Very odd.
"May I ask senior's name?" Sha Ku spoke.
"No, you may not, hehe." The old man giggled.
"Very well, I bid you a good day." Sha Ku said, turning around to leave without even bothering to ask about the rewards, he intended to get as many contribution points as possible on this trip.
"Happy hunting for that fungus." The old man cackled, echoing throughout the air.
"What?!" Sha Ku turned around, stunned, looking to ask the old man how he knew of his mission.
But when Sha Ku turned around all he saw was a middle-aged man, dizzy and half-conscious, vomiting on the floor. There was no sight of the crazy old man that he had spoken too before.
"What the hell was that then?" Sha Ku raised his lip in confusion, looking out to the central peak with suspicion.
----
Sha Ku left that day, his hand clasped around a particular sword that he had taken as a prize from a defeated opponent.
As he left the gates of the sect, he looked back, tracing along the outside of the sharp sword, "Soon. Soon, none shall be able to obstruct my path and the mountain will belong to me."
He walked through the hills, his sword sheathed on his belt, another – the violet cloud sword, was resting in his spatial ring.
The journey to the forest – Darkspire, where the fungus resided would be a long one.
There were a hundred miles between him and the forest, he figures he could trek it in about twelve hours of continues travelling, but there's a strong possibility that he'd be exhausted when he arrived. He was only in the body of a young boy after all.
He'd spend two days travelling, to make sure that he didn't tire himself out. That present-ed a specific problem for him though, sleeping. The distance between the Spirit Sword Mountains and Darkspire forest was filled with ruff terrain and beasts beyond counting.
"Eh, I'll just wing it." Sha Ku shrugged, he wasn't too worried, and if worst came to worse, he could slaughter his way to the forest.
