Short Story One

To be written

Moxi is a young dragon who has just come of age. His instincts, etched into his very bones, make him unable to walk away when he sees a baby animal. And though he's a completely hairless dragon, he's obsessed with fluffy creatures. Sadly, the harsh environment of Xize Marsh means that almost every creature has evolved hard, waterproof scales.

One day, he arrives in an unfamiliar place, a land of beautiful mountains and clear waters. Everything running on the ground and flying in the sky is fluffy, and he even finds himself at a place called the Beast Taming Sect.

Standing in front of the spirit-beast pens, Moxi excitedly counts: one fluffy creature, two fluffy creatures, three fluffy creatures, four fluffy creatures... So many fluffy creatures, and even fluffy babies!

Dragon God above, is this paradise for dragons obsessed with fluff?

The Beast Taming Sect has been in decline for years. Almost all its disciples are trying to find a way to join other sects, and the spirit beasts have long been left untended. The sect leader is heartbroken but powerless to help.

Then, among the new disciples who join the sect, one named Moxi stands out. He's astonishingly stupid, unable to gather qi even after a month, yet he's the only one in the entire sect who willingly cares for the spirit beasts.

The sect leader is moved to tears. He makes pills and trades for spirit stones, hoping to improve this good-for-nothing disciple's cultivation. But the new disciple is beyond saving, spending every day caring for spirit beasts without making the slightest progress in his cultivation.

The sect leader is beside himself with worry. He thinks that once he ascends, the other sects will devour the new disciple and the sect, leaving nothing behind.

But when a Divine Transformation cultivator comes looking for trouble, the new disciple leaps into the air. One headbutt, and the cultivator is vomiting blood. Two headbutts, and the cultivator clutches his chest and falls. Three headbutts, and the cultivator dies on the spot.

Sect Leader: ??!!

So much for being a weak, useless good-for-nothing!
