The sun rose in the east.
The dazzling, fiery orb eternally burst forth with everlasting light and heat. Beyond being a star of flame, it was also the source of Life for countless beings.
All things revived, everything awakening with new vitality as the sun arose. The morning dew quickly dried, and the people living in the city began their busy day.
Su Ping was no exception, although he had risen comparatively late, well past sunrise.
Still with sleep in his eyes, Su Ping yawned. Without hurrying to wash his face, he had already reached Old Sha's training ground on the outskirts of the forest, a place he checked first every day. Only after looking there would he feel reassured enough to check on the Forest Wolf's training situation.
However, this morning, the moment Su Ping took a look, any lingering sleepiness instantly vanished. His eyes widened in astonishment; disregarding his pajamas and slippers, he ran straight into the reinforced glass enclosure to Old Sha's side.
