351 Farewell
The students of the special class entered the classroom and began to go over the battles and the things they learned through the whole experience. Theseus spoke on the podium until, suddenly, Shi Lang entered the room.
His pace was steady and his aura was solemn, the students had a bad premonition in their hearts. They did not understand what was going on with the teacher, was he upset that they did not perform better or was his thinking of how to punish them.
Shi Lang cast a look at Theseus and said, “Go take your seat, I have an announcement to make.”
The class monitor nodded and went back to his seat while Shi Lang came to the podium. He first looked around at the class, at the faces of the students and then said, “You all might be thinking what is making me give off this aura, right?”
He could see through them with ease. He said, “Well, I am not here to make you all ado anything at all. I am only hoping for you all to keep focused towards your studies and become stronger in the coming time. Do not stop learning, and do not forget what your aim is.”
Theseus raised his hand and Shi Lang nodded, he asked, “Sir, are you going somewhere?”
Shi Lang nodded and without much expression on his face and said, “I am going back to the front, my time here has come to an end.”
The class was shaken instantly, however, they still did not give up the discipline and raised their hands. Shi Lang waved his hands and said, “I know that you all have a lot of questions but things are not that simple, and even if I tell you, you might not understand. So, bear with it and become stronger so that you can stand shoulder to shoulder with me in the future.”
The students were upset, and aggrieved. The girls almost had tears in their eyes. However, suddenly, Quo Lina stood up from her seat and saluted Shi Lang as she said, “Command Acknowledged, Sir.”
This sudden salute and loud following remark made things change. The rest of the class stood up and followed this gesture. Theseus stood up in the end and said, “I will not only stand by your side, but also surpass you.”
A lot of classmates were shocked at this, and even Shi Lang was the same, however, this remark ignited his spirit again, and he said, “Come then, I will be there to beat you down every time.”
Then he laughed as his eyes sparkled and his spiritual pressure began to flow out. The students all instantly became suffocated, they sensed as if a mountain was pressing over them. Shi Lang looked at the young man in front of him and said, “This is not even ten percent of what I am, treat this level as a small goal. Find me when you reach here.”
The classmates understood that Shi Lang was saying all this to Theseus. However, they all wished to rise up and face the stronger Shi Lang, the students and the teachers were all inspiring each other. After a few minutes, Shi Lang took back his pressure, leaving the students immobilized. Then he said, “Your new instructor will be here in the class tomorrow, I do not wish to hear any complains or I will come back and break your bones to powder. Understood. Also, I hope that you all the smart enough to know what is a military officer capable of.”
The people nodded meekly, they were really weak at this moment, and Shi Lang left the classroom, he did not wish to waste much time on this temporary farewell. The students he taught will rise to the peak one day to come and that day will come soon enough.
Time has become a fleeting matter to him ever since he stepped into the primordial soul realm, and now it was time to advance. The young general left the classroom and directly exited the school. He did not waste any extra time and simply flashed his way to home. Then he informed his parents of his decision but before they could put up a protest, Shi Lang was out of the house.
Amelia met him at the door step with Shi Tao who was carrying a lot of bags in her hand. Shi Lang pecked her forehead and said, “I am going out for work, will come later, you stay home and be well, study hard and train a lot. Okay?”
Shi Tao nodded and with a skip in her step she walked inside. Shi Lang asked, “What did you buy her to be so happy?”
Amelia shook her head and said, “This child too much after you, she just would not take her eyes off those weapons and armors. So, I got her a custom made weighted suit. She wants to beat Quo Lina and claim the strongest spot in the class.”
Shi Lang laughed and then he stood up to kiss the forehead of the lady and said, “I will go to work now.”
Amelia nodded and said, “Be safe, and no red hair.”
Shi lang laughed as he waved his hand and a dedicated car from the military came to pick him up. The vehicle moved away, and Amelia entered the house when the scene vanished from her eyes. The vehicle did not go straight to the Parliament. Shi Lang was not going to tell the old cronies that he was going back to the front.
He headed to a hangar reserved for him and left the federation. His soldiers were loyal to him only and it was time that the general council woke up from their daze of control and power. The Young general did not look like he will give a chance to his opponents.
His spaceship made rendezvous with X, on Mythya, and then they came to the Tartarus. The living hell that he had designed for the soldiers to train.
The ace division was training here. However, they all found that the ninth level was empty. This was something that they did not expect. Shi Lang had come over to with complete surprise, at this moment some members were in the observation room, watching their comrades running through the courses, when they suddenly saw a new person pass through the barrier of the entrance level.
They brushed it off as a new trainee X bought along. What happened next shocked them, every person entering the Tartarus will be checked and scanned through the doors. Each level had a time scanning device as well.
The person moving through the levels was extremely fast, faster than their imaginations. Milo was the analyst as usual, and he exclaimed out loud, “Who the ** entered Tartarus? The god from hell?”
The others looked at the device and they were shell shocked as well, at this moment, X entered the room and said, “Yes, Someone from hell came here, but he is not a God. He is a Demon, or to be precise, Asura.”
This one word shocked the people, they knew who this identity belonged to. X had a mask on as he did not reveal his identity to anyone, but his gaze was flickering with joy. The ace division had lost blood from their faces when they heard this name. The peak elites of the federation lost their composure and X enjoyed the show.
He said, “You all have a task, report to the lowest level, as soon as possible. Hehe, he will be waiting for you.”
The people jumped into action and then they passed on the message as well, Shi Lang moved so so quickly by the time they were done reaching the first level, he had cleared the seven levels of the maze. There were a lot of new candidates here, but all they sensed was a gust.
However, the pressure did not allow them to gossip at all. Shi Land did not intend to converse with them because his status was too high at the moment and it will only distract them.
Shi Lang reached the ninth level and stretched his bones as he said, “Oh, nine minutes, I have gotten rusty.”
A voice sounded behind him, “Who are you?”
Shi Lang was surprised to hear this and turned around, the figure in front of him looked like a teenager, he asked back, “Do you really not know me?”
The teenager did not react surprisedly, and directly took out his handgun and spoke in his communicator, “Intruder spotted at the ninth level, request assistance.”
Shi Lang was amused and raised his hand and said, “Fine, you win. Take it easy on the trigger.”
Fifteen minutes later, three figures appeared at the entrance of the ninth level, the people were shocked when they saw the scene unfolding in front of them. Milo rushed forward and saluted Shi Lang, “Milo reporting for duty, Commander Ace.”
Shi Lang shrugged and asked, “I have a gun pointed at me, Milo.”
He was exasperated. This guy was still a doofus.
