'Yuan Academy; Boys Dorm'
Morning, Li was cultivating while Heng was woke up by the chirps of the birds, opening his eyes he was brightened by the light that Li emitted and he realized that cultivators are really hard workers but they should rest or relax where Heng said. Li took a deep breath and reminded Heng that he need to be more stronger so at any case or troubles he can protect his self.
Li was right and Heng accepted it but still he was thinking hard that it would be more good if Li revealed his true identity while he furrowed his eye brows. The reason is he feel sorry to Ah Cy because whenever if there was a training in practical forces she keep on smiling but deep down in her emotions Ah Cy feels lonely.
Li sigh as he approved the words of Heng but he can't still do it or reveal it because from his self he don't know what would he do and he still haven't been able to decide as to whether or not, revealing his elements. He can't made it out on his mind but he decided to hide it first.
The two of them started to move out in their room and met Ah Cy. While they were talking each other they heard the shouts of their classmates, near at the E class station. When they went to look it up from what was happening, they saw three boys who were their classmates that was being cornered by six D class boys.
"Those bastards!!"
"Wait! brother Heng! don't cause some trouble. I know you want to help but let's lessen a little bit."
It's good that Heng can now control his patience but only if he is with Li. The three of them went to butt in and the D class started to argue on them while showing off their elements, Li smirk and express an exclamation of derision. The seven D class student boys expression got incredulous and one of them exchange words to Li where he said that Li have a mouthful of crap that even his skills is a trash.
Expectations was right from Li's thoughts and he just waved his hand calmly ignoring the harsh words that he heard. They ignore them and help their four classmates to leave the area, went back at the E classroom. The one who insulted Zhi Li(Li) became angry and use his fire sword, dashing towards him. Li was expecting that and while it's closely hitting on his head he turned around.
The boy stop and can't move, that was caused by Li's(Zhi Li) shadow bind where he restricted the whole body. The boy struggle as much as he can but it didn't even budge a little because Li use his shadow bind skill at refining tier first level, although the D class boy know it too but by his anger attitude he can't accept his defeat. When they were aware that an instructor was coming Li(Zhi Li) then removed his shadow bind and used it as he whip on his cheeks.
Instructor Tieu Dan came on the scene and saw Zhi Li's cheeks that it has a red swollen damage. He sigh like it was problematic and punished the six boys to run three hundred kilometers, surrounding their academy yard. Zhi Li( Li) is suppressing his laughter while both Heng and Ah Cy make a poker face and said.
"What a sly fox...."
Instructor Tieu Dan apologized to Zhi Li for causing him a troubles because D class are really have a bad gangs or attitudes like the six D class earlier and he also add that if he came earlier then Zhi Li shouldn't been injured. Zhi Li didn't worry for it and instructor Tieu Dan laugh it out, he think that Zhi Li have a strong perseverance, so there were no problem and then they proceed to their class sessions.
Class was done, coming out in their class where Ah Cy, Heng and Zhi Li went outside the three boys who was being save by them earlier, they approach Zhi Li like they were ganging him into the corner. The three boys keep on staring at him and Heng rushed on side of Li(Zhi Li). Heng claimed that even their life were save earlier where they are being bullied he feels like they are targeting Li.
Although the four boys didn't still do something to Zhi Li they were just looking each other, seems like Heng was wrong because the four boys suddenly bowed their heads onto ninety degrees and thank the three who save them moreover to Zhi Li.
He feel shy and embarrassed then he stop the three boys for showing a long period of gratitude's bow, it's because he didn't want to seek an attention. The three boys stuttered saying thanks and now, they know that Zhi Li' and his comrades have really kind heart.
"Ah! that's right we didn't still introduce our self. I'm Doung Tei."
"Here! here! I'm Hao Bo"
"Pleasure here, Tao Shui"
Ah Cy, Heng, Zhi Li also pay some respect and introduce their self, also Zhi Li saw the screen pop on the head of three boys, which is there names and emotions. Since they've known each names the three boys treat them on the food stalls. After that mostly Heng is the one who eat too much, he is very glutton when it comes to foods while Ah Cy and Zhi Li feels bad to the three boys but they didn't mind because they really want to repay them.
As for that day they became friends, teaching each other, cultivating and trained their skills. The three boys skills breakthrough into a refining tier first level and that's thanks to Zhi Li's teachings. He also recommend that the three boys will be sparing each other so he will see if there movements and agility improved. They became strong in just a week and that makes Li happy because he really want to help those three.
Li knows their true nature since the he enrolled in the academe sect campus, he saw them helping the poor, but they act in hidden way because they don't want to be notice by other individuals. Also it was a perfect time when those three want to be friends with Zhi Li where he thought that they will not come to seek some friendship but it seems like they were just shy.
