Chapter 1103
(Unedited)
…
"Stop!!!" shouted a female voice which stunned Xin Ja.
Xin Ja saw Teacher Hou standing by the stairs while glaring at them. He knew that if he did not stop, he would surely be punished. And that he did not want to happen. He wanted his father to be proud of him and wanted to feel happy because of his accomplishnts.
And so he lowered his guard because of the presence of the teacher. However, this only proves that Xin Ja is still too naïve and has not thought that a student would still attack him even in the presence of the teacher.
With glowing fingers, the 3rd-year student shouted…
"Eagle Claw Strike!"
Xin Ja was taken aback by the action of the student. Although he was stunned and was surprised by the negligence of the student's duty and his disrespect, Xin Ja knew that if he did not act now, he would surely be wounded.
Swoosh!!!
Xin Ja leaned back and then let the finger pass through him as his hands touché the ground. With his body arching backward, he lifted his legs, and then as the arms of the student passed by, he suddenly clamps them.
Like a koala hugging a tree branch, Xin Ja grabs the arm of the student. Then using his thumb, he quickly thrust it in an acupoint. Then using the montum, he drags that student to the ground as he rolled over and ended up tackling the student. His figure slid to the side and appears behind the student while holding his arm which is still glowing.
The Ki from the student's finger causes the cheek of Xin Ja to be wounded, but he keeps gritting his teeth through the pain.
"Since you do not want to stop, then you cannot bla if I will break your arm right?!" Xin Ja shouted in his anger.
"No… don't!" shouted Hou Anqing as she snapped out of her reverie.
At this ti, the other students have already been released from the array, but they are all still on the ground squirming in pain while holding their bodies.
Hou Anqing this ti has already made her move and arrives near Xin Ja grabbing his shoulder.
"Relax, do not be agitated… Okay, I will make sure that nothing will happen." Teacher Hou Anqing said while trying to pacify the now agitated boy.
"How can I trust? I saw you gawking at while this bastard attacks ! You are a 5th level Ki fighter and can move faster than us! You have the ability to stop him at that ti! Why!!!" Xin Ja shouted as he glares at Teacher Anqing.
When it cos to his life and death, Xin Ja has already been a sensitive boy. He might have held everyone in respect and treated them as his friends, classmates, and teacher, but if push cos to shove, his instinct which he has honed inside the forest would always appear. And when that happens, they can only bla themselves for what would happen next.
"This… I… I'm sorry… I'm sorry, I was distracted." Teacher Hou said while lowering her head.
In fact, she was fascinated at that ti when she saw seven 3rd-year students being trapped by a 1st-year freshman and a 1st level Ki fighter at that. She beca a bit greedy and has not thought of the consequences or the feeling of the young guy.
She just realized her mistake when she saw what is about to happen.
She can see it now in the young man's eyes. Those are not normal eyes of a naïve young man… those eyes are like that of a fierce beast, ready to kill its prey.
Suddenly, Xin Ja lets go of the student's arm, then lowers his head and slowly walks away.
"Tell… tell the coach. I will not be participating in the War Gas…" Xin Ja said in a low voice as he left with a disappointed expression.
How could he not feel such a thing? These 3rd-year students are would-be teammates of his. If he has such s teammate, then that would be like leaving his back open in front of his opponent, and that did not sit well with him at all.
After hearing the words from the young man, Hou Anqing could not say anything anymore. She knew that she made a mistake… in fact… she could have prevented this from happening if only she was not over by curiosity and indifference. If only she was more sensitive to her students.
In her ti as a teacher in the academy, she would always see such a thing happening and thought that it is normal… that it would build strength and character to a student if they ever experience and might overco such bullying.
She thought that those who give up are weak and their minds are feeble. She thinks that they are not worthy to be in the academy.
But now… upon seeing such talent also having such mindset, it made her think that sothing is actually wrong with her train of thoughts.
…
That afternoon, the academy's infirmary was plagued with a big problem. Seven of their students are writhing in pain, and no matter how many healing potions the students take, or antidote, or rejuvenating potions, nothing happens. In fact, even the alchemists and the dical masters are dumbfounded at this occurrence.
Xin Manor in the outskirts of the town
Right now, in the living room, Xin Jong is showing a deep frown on his face while his two guests are looking a bit dismayed.
They have learned of what happened in the academy that afternoon, and what Xin Ja did. Plus they heard about his decision to not join the team anymore, so it made the coach and General Hou feel a bit conflicted.
"Xin Jong… I hope that you can try to convince your son. We will make sure that those students will not cause any more trouble… I promise to keep them in line." Coach An Taining said as she stood up from her seat.
"I too am sorry for what had happened…" General Hou said.
"I hope that you guys will not hold this to my son. Ever since that day when we were kidnapped and I got beaten, he always carries this deep distrust of people… So when soone breaks their promise to him, he would always keep it in mind… Sigh. I too cannot bla you guys… But I hope that you guys will give him ti to think. I will try to convince him, but… I cannot guarantee." Xin Jong promised.
The two left while shaking their heads.
At this ti, Xin Jong enters the courtyard of Xin Ja. He imdiately noticed his son practicing his weird fighting technique again.
"Son…" Xin Jong said as he enters while showing a wide smile on his face.
Xin Ja stopped practicing and wipes his sweat with a towel.
"Yes, papa…" he replied while walking towards Xin Jong.
Xin Jong did not say any words and just grabs Xin Ja's shoulders.
"I'm proud of you… I'm proud to have you as my son. Do whatever you think is right, and I will be behind you always… I will support everything you desire." Xin Jong said as he hugged Xin Ja who was still showing a dumbfounded expression.
The warm hug of his father made Xin Ja feel touched, and also uncomfortable as his body is full of sweat.
"Papa… please let go… Ewww…" Xin Ja squird.
"Oh, really! Then, let's see what my son got?!" Xin Jong suddenly said as he let go of Xin Ja and quickly takes a jab at him.
Xin Ja quickly dodges and retaliates.
The father and son began to have a bout of physical fighting with Xin Jong controlling his strength.
After that, they talked about Xin Ja's day in school, and Xin Jong feel at ease seeing that his son is not actually affected too much by what had happened.
The next day…
Xin Ja was woken up by a soft and sweet voice.
"Little Ja… hey… It's ti for school!" Yao Xue called out while shaking his shoulder.
"Hey, Big Sister Xue… Good morning!" Xin Ja greeted as he jumps out of bed.
He quickly rushes to wash his face and then changes into his school uniform.
"Hey, Little Ja… Umm… I heard that so of the parents of the students in school ca to our house last night. But Uncle Jong chases them away… I hope that you will not be in trouble at the academy, so you be careful, okay?" Yao Xue said with a hint of worry on her face.
Upon hearing this… a slightly mischievous smile appears on Xin Ja's face.
He knew that this would happen, but he just did not expect that the alchemists and dical masters in the academy would not be able to cure those guys. Well… if his master in dicine, Ba Baoji was there, then those guys would already be healed.
But they were just unlucky that they have provoked the wrong person, so he would let them suffer for another day before helping.
But, right now his concern is Teacher Hou.. He might have said sothing that he should not have said last ti, so he feels a bit guilty.
