Shi Lang placed his hand around Quo Lina’s shoulder as he guided her down the stage. It will be a lie to say that this young girl was not tired. The battle just now may look like it was her overwhelming win, but she has been pushing her body to the limit to execute all the skills that she did.

The battle was not in her favor, she was indeed fighting an opponent stronger than herself. She was recently promoted to the three-star level while the opponent was at the peak of her realm. Her foundation was not consolidated either and Theseus had told her beforehand if she did not cash on the fact that Alena has been underestimating her she will suffer if the battle was to drag on for long.

Shi Lang could feel that the body of the girl was shivering slightly, he could tell that she was putting on a tough front, the wave of exhaustion was about to come over. He simply skipped the wave of people walking over to congratulate him. His only priority was to bring Quo Lina to the classroom. The two of them were walking with an unspoken tactic understanding.

Theseus was quick as always and instructed the class to form a barrier around the two. The special class was quick at the job, and they gathered around to escort the two people to the classroom unaffected. Shi Lang nodded to Theseus, acknowledging that this was a good method to keep away the flies.

The two people reached the classroom and Shi Lang had Quo Lina sit down on the ground with her legs crossed and he began to help her channel the spirit energy throughout her body and calm down her energies. The blood inside her veins was churning a lot faster providing her the power she needed in the battle, however, this increased circulation could harm the body from the inside easily.

This was why young cultivators were asked to focus on their cultivation not only to grow stronger but also strong enough to manipulate the blood circulation in the body. Shi Lang was very patient in his guidance.

The class was filled with silence, the students could sense that this matter was of great urgency and that was why Shi Lang was being so meticulous. They also took this instance to relate and rectify the weaknesses in their cultivation techniques. Theseus was very good at theory, so he what Shi Lang was talking about, he understood and relayed it to the rest of the students with his communicator.

He was the class monitor and would not let any of his classmates feel neglected, because he knew that strength lay in unity. To prevent any disturbance, he asked Chou to stay behind and guard the door. He also told him to inform him if any teacher comes over.

Just as he predicted, Yuu had come over to find Shi Lang, but she found a bulky teenager standing in front of the door with his arms crossed in front of his chest. She said, “You are guarding the door?”

Chou did not lie to her and simply nodded, she was an instructor, after all. Yuu nodded and asked, “Why are you guarding the door?”

Chou replied, “The class monitor said, guard.”

Yuu was surprised to see this, in her impression this place was the problem class, and all the children here were problematic and rebellious. To think they have a class monitor who can make a student so obedient. She got curious and asked, “Why do you follow his instructions?”

Chou did not know how to reply to this and shrugged his shoulders, just when Yuu was about to push against him, the door behind opened with a swish and an eloquent student walked out while adjusting his glasses.

Chou looked at the guy and said, “Class monitor, Instructor Yuu wishes to see Teacher.”

Theseus nodded and said, “You did good Chou, it has been hard on you. Go take a rest, I will take over here.”

Chou replied, “But I am not tired yet.”

He was confused, given his strength, it was not a big deal for him to stand here for an entire day, so why was Theseus asking him to go inside? Theseus was well aware of the simple personality of his friend and said, “I mean to say, I will entertain Instructor Yuu, in the meantime go help Venessa maintain order, lest those guys get unruly.”

Chou understood and with a slight bow to instructor Yuu, he went back to the class. This small interaction between the two had already left Yuu in a daze. She was thinking if this was still a class and not a military camp. She looked at Theseus, who was smiling at her, and asked in a gentle voice, “May I help you, Instructor Yuu?”

Yuu snapped back to reality and asked, “Yes, I want to see your teacher.”

Theseus nodded and said, “I understand but can I please ask you to wait for a few minutes? The teacher is helping Quo Lina, he asked not to be disturbed.”

Yuu was surprised, she thought, ‘What could it be that Shi Lang is helping that child with?’

She asked with a solemn expression, “What is going on, did Shi Lang push you guys a bit too much, that you have suffered internal injuries to increase your skills?”

She was not doubting that Shi Lang would do something like this, but it was still necessary to ask, after all, these children were not easy to deal with and if Shi Lang used a heavy hand on them, that was understandable. After all, young blood was hot and volatile.

Theseus chuckled and shook his head as he said, “No, the teacher is never too hard on us. He is very patient. Since you have asked me this question, I shall dispel your doubts. Quo Lina reached the three-star level a day ago, her foundation is yet to be consolidated, and as inexperienced as we are, we did not know the method to consolidate the foundation in a battle.

Also, she is not disrespectful to her opponent. She went past the edge of her limits and that put her body through some stress, Teacher Shi, is helping her with that so that her injuries do not worsen.”

Yuu was surprised and asked, “Did lang ask you guys to push forward so much?”

Theseus shook his head, “We are all doing this because we want to. Teacher Shi is a great general and has won glory for the federation. We all admire him because we know that he was also tagged as a problem child. He has been very patient with us, and we all are taught differently by him. So, when the challenge was put out, we decided to go all out to deal with it. The motive was not to win but to go the distance.

Who knew this pie will fall in our laps when Alena underestimated Quo.”

Yuu nodded, but she still found it hard to digest that the sadist her team has trained was so calm and patient with his students. She said, “Tell him to give me a call when he is free.”

Theseus took note of this and nodded as he watched the lady leave. He went back inside the class and found Shi Lang sitting on his chair as the rest of the class was gazing at Quo Lina who was cultivating in the corner.

The young teacher turned his head to look at Theseus and asked, “What happened?”

Theseus did not know why the man was talking so loud. Shi Lang smiled and said, “I set a barrier around her, it will vanish when she wakes up. Now out with it.”

Theseus nodded and told him about his conversation with Yuu. Shi Lang nodded and said, “I will see what she needs from me, now your assignment is to assess the battle today, and make notes, if you do not understand something, mark it and ask later, but do not copy the assignments. I want to see what is your own comprehension of the scene today. Understood?”

The class replied, “Yes, Teacher.”

Shi Lang nodded and walked out of the class. With the teacher out, the students began to watch the footage of the battle. Someone commented, “Lina was really quick, however, looking carefully, her muscles are too weak.”

The people around him nodded and Theseus said, “No discussion. You will end up copying what you see.”

The students realized this and nodded, as they said, “Sorry, old habit.”

Theseus did not say anything further but watched them everyone comprehend the footage silently. After an hour, Shi Lang came back and Quo Lina also woke up from her cultivation. She skipped on the spot and then threw a few casual punches in the void. The whooshing sound of the air was too cool.

She looked at Shi Lang and was about to thank him, when the man smiled and said, “You all get ready, we have an outing to celebrate the growth you all have shown in the past few days. Also, I do not wish to hear any slang or cusses out there.”

Theseus asked, “Sir, the class is not over yet.”

Shi Lang smiled and said, “I am taking you all to learn social communication.”
