Insufficient balance
Finally achieved victory, I sat on the ground with a thud.
Two roommates and Green Hair rushed onto the stage and lifted me up, "Boss, you won the championship, you won the championship."
I gave them a tired glance, "Stop bothering me, disperse quickly, I want to sleep..." Before I could finish speaking, I fainted. My magical power had been overdrawn and it was the first time using someone else's power, my body couldn't withstand it and I fainted as a form of self-protection.
"Huh, how did I end up at Teacher Di's place?" As I came to, I felt a dull ache all over my body and couldn't muster up any strength. Trying to gather some magical energy, I only managed to recover a tiny bit. The small golden orb inside me was slowly rotating, constantly replenishing its energy. It seemed like it would take at least a day or two for me to fully recover."
I'm alone in the room now, it's daytime, but I don't know what time it is.
The door creaked open and Teacher Di walked in, "You're awake! How's your body feeling?"
"Come on, it's just soft and fluffy, Teacher Di, how did I end up at your place?"
"I was waiting for you to wake up and ask you some things, so I brought you here. How did you use the Broken Magic Seal at the end of the final match that day?" Teacher Di asked me urgently.
"Ah! I don't know either. What is a Broken Magic Seal?" I really didn't know, and now even the day I won was vague to me, let alone knowing what was going on.
"How could you not know?! You clearly used it, how could you not know?!" Teacher Di was so anxious that she was pacing back and forth.
"Don't be in a hurry, just tell me slowly, what's going on? What's there to be anxious about? Looking at Teacher Di's expression, it seems like the Broken Seal is very important."
After hearing my words, Teacher Di also knew that he couldn't be impatient and calmed down his mood. "It was like this, on that day, just as you were about to run out of time, when you were sealed by the Wú Dìng Fēng Bō (Unfixed Wind Wave), a dragon clan's unique magic suddenly appeared on your body - Pò Mó Fēng (Magic-Sealing Annulment), which specifically took the form of that golden light halo."
"Golden halo? Let me think." I racked my brain to recall the situation that day, "It seemed like there was a golden halo, and when the turbulent waves of the sea encountered it, they seemed to be broken... but I don't know what happened either. Is this important?"
"Of course it's very important, extremely important, you know? The golden aura you used is a special magic unique to the Dragon Clan, only high-ranking dragons can use it. I've never heard of humans being able to use the Dragon Clan's Broken Seal Magic before. Think about it yourself, haven't you made some kind of contract with the Dragon Clan?"
"No, I've taken care of Xiao Jin, and I haven't made any contract with any creature! Ah, right, Xiao Jin." My eyes lit up, that day Xiao Jin suddenly became restless for no reason which caused my headache, then the golden halo appeared, it must have something to do with Xiao Jin.
"What's wrong with Xiaojin?" Teacher Di asked hastily.
I recounted the situation at that time in detail.
"Teacher Di hesitated for a moment, 'Looking at it this way, could it be that Little Jin is not a snake-type fantasy beast, but rather...'"
I exchanged a glance with Teacher Di and we both said in unison "Dragon..." Little Jin is the Dragon, is this possible????
"Hurry up and summon Xiao Jin out to take a look." I also want to see if Xiao Jin is really a dragon, and it's been a long time since I last let it out, don't know if there have been any changes.
After Teacher Di set up the seal for the entire room, I started chanting "My friend Xiaojin, come before me." Along with my simple summoning spell, a white light flashed by, and Xiaojin appeared in front of me.
Little Jin has grown a lot since I last saw it, but its lazy appearance tells me that it consumed a large amount of magical energy in the previous competition and hasn't recovered yet. Its two horns seem to be growing towards the middle, and the golden stripes on its body run from head to tail. The fin-like structure on its back is thicker and longer than before, almost covering the front half of its body. The five protrusions on the lower part of its body are not only longer than before, but also have a small round pad at the tip of each protrusion.
"It's grown so big?" Teacher Di had never seen Little Jin grow up before.
"Yes, after we shared our lives last time, it grew up, but it seems to be smaller than now. Di teacher, is it a dragon?"
"I also said it's not good, I've never seen a dragon either. But in my impression, a dragon should have two claws, right? If the protrusions on its belly are claws, that's too many. Wait, let me check the book. It's been ages since I last read that book."
As he spoke, Mr. Di took out a very old-looking book from his large bookcase. I went over to take a look and the title of the book was "The True Ruler of the Continent - Dragon". It seemed to be a book that specialized in introducing dragons.
"Let me see, let me see." Teacher Di muttered to himself as he flipped through the book. He read very quickly, almost scanning each page, when suddenly he stopped, looking at the book in one hand and Little Jin with the other, as if comparing something.
"Have you found it? Is Little Jin really a dragon?" I stood on tiptoes looking at the book in Teacher Di's hand.
"Longbow, if the book isn't mistaken, you've struck gold."
"What does the book say?"
"Take a look at this passage." Teacher Di handed me the book and stared steadily at Xiaojin, as if admiring some precious treasure.
I took over the book, and this is what was written on it:
The title is: The Royal Family of the Dragon Clan - Five-Clawed Golden Dragon
Introduction: The Five-Clawed Golden Dragon is the king of the dragon tribe, also known as the Dragon King. Each realm's Dragon King is the strongest in the dragon tribe, possessing exceptionally powerful strength. The lifespan of a Five-Clawed Golden Dragon is approximately 20,000 years. When it exceeds 15,000 years or feels that its life cannot be prolonged, it will mate with the most beautiful mother dragon in the dragon tribe. After more than 1,000 years of gestation, a new generation will be born. After 3,000 years of growth, the new Five-Clawed Golden Dragon will become the true Dragon King, taking over its father's position and ruling the dragon tribe. At this time, the body of the previous generation's old Dragon King has gradually aged, and it will retire to the gathering place of the dragon tribe. Therefore, in each generation, there is only one Five-Clawed Golden Dragon that is the true king. The Five-Clawed Golden Dragon not only excels at physical attacks but also masters the dragon language magic of the dragon tribe and possesses extremely high intelligence.
"Teacher Di, no way! Is Little Jin a Five-Clawed Golden Dragon? If so, it'll take 3,000 years for it to mature. I'll be long gone by then, and it's only less than a year old now!" I asked, voicing my doubts.
