The night quickly faded as dawn arrived once more.

Within the circle of experts in Machen Town, a saying was now flowing amongst its grapevine. It was a rumor that could only be described as preposterous if spoken to the upper class of Bright Flame Kingdom and even more so to the ears of particular parties.

Within a crowded bar, around a small table sat four unremarkable individuals, each of whom wore similar uniformed garments. As they sat and ate they discussed the various rumors that are common to the masses, however, it was not too long before their conversation reached the latest and most exciting news flowing around.

"I've heard a rather strange rumor recently," One of the figures said.

"Eh? What's it this time?" Another form replied while the rest looked on in interest.

"Well, it's like this, it appears that a new expert is going around these parts. They said that he is so powerful that he does not lose even when compared to the top tier talents within this kingdom. In fact, I heard that yesterday at the battle arena a few unexpected characters made their appearances known. Rumour has it that each of these individuals where of the highest class in both our kingdom and on the outside, even superior talents ranking on the kingdoms [Bright-Flame-Listing] were involved," The figure said as he drank his morning tea.

"What? A new expert, and high brass characters appearing within this small town. You expect me to believe your nonsense!" Shouted the other figure as he looked towards the man slightly annoyed.

"Enough! Let's finish hearing the story. You may continue with your statement, Brother Bu! What does this expert have to do with those characters?" A relatively larger individual said.

"Em! They say that this expert was so powerful he suppressed the two competing for the title of 'Champion' all by himself while he was under constrained conditions. The high-class characters who saw the scene were stunned as they had wanted to hold a competition with their retainers against promising individuals at the arena. However, with just the expert's slight show of strength, it alone was enough to deter any further thoughts of competition," The man replied with a look of awe visible on his face.

A look of shock could be seen over on one the individual's faces as he inquired, "How could this be? Who is this expert? And What is his title?"

Hearing this an odd smile came on the other figure face as he hesitated for a moment before speaking once more, "He is called Dai Lin, Dai Lin of the Blue Thunder!"

Hearing the arrogance and might behind the title an individual couldn't help but feel warm-blooded, he looked towards the speaker and asked, "Since he's a rogue expert he should not have any affiliation to any influences. Did he join any of the influential characters?"

At his question, the figure smiled as he replied, "This is where the rumor gets more interesting, it was said that after his battle on the Blue Thunder Dai Lin then left with another individual whom he addressed as Young Master."

"Mm, another big figure and who might this fellow be?" Asked the large form with curiosity in his eyes.

"Rumors says that he is known as Machen Town's number one mischief doer, Feng Yu of the Feng Clan."

"What?!" The figures said in unison as they shouted together in harmony.

Seated in a remote corner and overhearing their conversation was a guy dressed in a sleeveless shirt while wearing loose-fitting long pants and a wooden sandal. He was about two meters tall and had a muscular physique black hair and a hard face, hung high on top of his back was a large and odd-looking bow.
