Chapter 6 - Training (1/2)
To cut short what happened inside the office, Wu Zhangkong stated that Tang Wulin, Xie Xie and I will be joining a tournament where classes fight against one another for the sake of increasing their ranks, their teacher's prestige and some rewards.
Xie Xie visibly brightened up when he heard the words rewards. Stepping up, he boasted arrogantly that he would solo the tournament himself.
Wu Zhangkong shut him down by telling him that the minimum number of participants would be a pair and that he wanted the three of us to fight in it.
Xie Xie quickly deflated at those words.
Wu Zhangkong told us that the tournament would be in a month and he would be giving special training at night after classes.
I swear that sounded gay but its actually not.
Leaving the office, Xie Xie coldly called, ”Hey!”
Tang Wulin and I turned around to look at Xie Xie. I was about to say something but Tang Wulin beat me to it.
”What is it? I'll fight you once we get back. I'll also pay you back for the food.”
For a moment, Xie Xie could not help but stare at Tang Wulin blankly for a moment.
”I don't want to talk about that anymore. I'm here to tell both of you not to drag me down in the tournament next month,” Xie Xie proudly said.
Did this guy just forget that the teacher just said that I was holding back against him?
”Whatever you say,” I had a deadpanned look on my face as I said that. Since he didn't register what Wu Zhangkong had said, I wouldn't snap him out of his delusions
Tang Wulin however, was not as courteous.
”Does your face still hurt?”
Xie Xie instantly stiffened at the provocation.
I couldn't help but laugh out when he said that, ”Well said Wulin!”
I bid goodbye to the both of them before going off.
Since classes ended early today, I went out of the academy compound, making my way to Eastsea Park.
I had been waiting the whole day for this. It was time to learn more about the third eye on my forehead.
There were quite a few spots there that were quite secluded at the park so I could experiment all I wanted without getting noticed by others.
I walked deep into the park before going into a spacious clearing. It was quite a distance away from the main path. Not only that, the foliage was quite thick so no one would see me. This was absolutely perfect for my needs.
Sitting down, I began to try out several things with the eye on my forehead. After several hours, I had gotten quite a hefty amount of information on it.
I found out that if I cultivated with the eye open, instead of increasing my cultivation, the energy would undergo a transformation before permeating into every cell of my body.
Was this considered body cultivation? Probably so.
Unlike normal cultivation which was slow and boring, cultivating my body felt amazing. As the strange energy strengthened my body, I was subjected to an extremely comfortable sensation.
