The raging flames sect was five man down, it had taken a huge blow. First, the strongest of the team was eliminated, and then the squad leader was also eliminated, the five that remained looked like a herd of sheep with a shepherd. Their morale was extremely low at the moment, any more eliminations and they would surrender, elder Jang could already see that happening. *Sigh* Else Jang released a deep breath and looked at Miss rose, he had kept faith in his students that they would be able to defend against the water serpent sect's attack, but these people were just too cunning. Judith had used the blood art even before the match had started and it seemed the the same was true for the Assistant captain, the result had been decided from the very beginning. Rachel's lips curled up slightly as she locked eyes with Cho cheong but it only lasted a brief moment before she looked away and went to focus on another victim. Cho cheong's heart race like a hor
"Baxia..." Elder Jang said as he placed a hand on Baxia's shoulder. He could sense the anger coming from Baxia. Baxia acting on his anger could get him in serious trouble, even if he was the son of the sect master it would only do little to help. Baxia sneered and shrugged elder Jang's hand off his shoulder, with a final look at Miss rose, he turned his back and left the place angrily. Miss rose had a slight smile on her face after Baxia left and it only increased when she saw the hate filled looks of the raging flames students. "Jang Chi, you really should teach your students basic manners tsk tsk tsk" She shook her head as she spoke. "Please leave with your students" Elder Jang said in a cold fashion. She had already won and yet she had laid hands on the sect master's child, although he couldn't do anything against it because miss rose was kind of in the right, it still was an act of disrespect....she couldn't stay any longer. "hmmm" Muss rose looked around, although she knew t
"Ha ha!" Miss rose let out a light chuckle "Ha ha ha ha ha ha!" She full on started laughing as she held her hand close to her mouth to keep it short. "Did I say something funny?" Elder Jang asked. After he had spoken miss rose had started laughing, did she find his words funny? "N...no...no you didn't" Miss rose said as she controlled herself. "Miss, it seems the Raging flames sect members aren't in the right state to receive a speech" The Great water serpent sect master's daughter let out an easily unnoticeable sigh and maintained her silence after. "Well then, it seems the miss isn't bothered by this development. We will be on our way, Jang Chi" Miss rose said and smiled brightly at Elder Jang. The guards with the Great water serpent sect master's daughter bowed at elder Jang and with one hand on the golden chair the daughter sat on, they raised it up in unison and carried it gently out of the House. Miss rose's students followed behind her. Both injured and uninjured had
"So.... where were you?" Cho cheong asked as she walked home with Harith. Harith had suddenly disappeared while the fight was still ongoing, and he didn't return until it was almost over. Where could he have gone that was more important than the match between the sect and the Great water serpent sect? "....." Harith suddenly be ame silent. He hadn't thought of a viable excuse, and he could really tell Cho cheong that he had left the match to go on a dangerous chase with a girl that he had barely known for days....it didn't sound right in any way he tried to imagine it. "No answer?" Cho cheong raised her eyebrow in suspicion and asked. She had asked this same question to Harith earlier but he had dodged it, she figured he would tell her after the match was done but Harith was dodging the question again?! Something was definitely off somewhere, but she knew not to pry too much. It could be something deeply personally maybe that's why he didn't want to say anything. So she gave
Harith was surprised and he hurriedly made his way to the House. Elder jang...what did he do that had gotten him summoned by elder jang so urgently? He wondered. It took some mere minutes before Harith reached the youth practitioners house. It was very much empty, with elder Jang being the only one present. Elder Jang was with his cane as always, sitting on a slab of stone and he looked to be meditating but as soon as Harith entered the house his eyes opened showing his sharpened gaze. “Hmm, You’re here" Elder Jang said "Yes elder Jang" Harith nodded "You called for me" He said. "Hmm, I did" Elder Jang nodded his head and with the help of his cane he stood up. "Take a seat" he said and pointed at the stone slab. Harith looked at the stone, unsure of what was happening but he still went ahead and sat on the stone. "The girl you were with today, do you know who she is?" Elder Jang asked, his voice cold and deep. Harith's heart
Harith's top fell off and his back was revealed to elder Jang. "So much scars for one so young..." Elder Jang muttered as his eyes widened a bit. Harith was not even an adult yet and although many young practitioners often underwent many rigorous forms of training to progress in their battle power, to have this much scars at this age...and not only on the back but all over the body as well, it was something elder Jang hadn't seen for a while. "Hmmm" Elder Jang didn't focise too much on the scars, he had called Harith for a specific reason. This loss to the great water serpent sect had made him realize somethings, and now he was taking action on them. In both the matches Harith had fought in, he had performed very well, especially in the first battle against the Great water serpent sect. Elder Jang had seen these performances of Harith and since he was impressed by Harith, he decided to help him. And also, Harith possessed a gift that was coveted around t
"Th...the space element?!" Harith asked to be sure of what he just heard. The space element?! He hadn't ever heard of such element, what could It be?! Seeing Harith's response to his words Elder Jang kept a good look. "I am not surprised you haven't heard of it. The space element is only know in the more advanced areas of practitioning" Elder Jang said and moved his hand, a powerful force of wind bursting right out of his palm. Harith mimicked the move but when he tried, nothing came out of his palm...it was rather just plain breeze. "Focus on the movements" Elder Jang said as he saw Harith's disappointment at not being able to perform the move he just did. "As I was saying, the space element is not really known among the lower divisions of practitioning, but among the higher divisions it is considered one of the most powerful and versatile elements one could ever be blessed with" He said. Harith nodded, signifying his attention was present.
Instantly, the hair on Harith's body all stood on edge. His whole life flashed before his eyes as the knife's edge came closer. He tried to move but he knew he was never going to make it in time, the knife was just that fast! *Thud* The knife finally landed, hitting the door of the main house. Heavy breathing came from Harith as he opened up his eyes. He had blacked out as soon as he realized he couldn't dodge the knife, he'd already accepted his fate. But....he was still alive? "Haha" Elder Jang laughed in all brightness. He was the one who had thrown the knife, and even though Harith couldn't dodge it normally, he still dodged it! "Y...you threw the knife?" Harith asked elder Jang as he tried to calm his breathing. Elder Jang had performed something of this sorts a while back but he never expected him to do it again! What the actual fuck! Was elder Jang trying to kill him or something?! "What the fuck was that?!" Harith shouted angrily. "Yo
