Chapter 1102: Myrth: 72

(Unedited)

…

Like a fierce tiger ready to pounce on his enemy, Xin Ja positioned himself on the ground on all fours with his body almost sticking to the ground and his arms spread. His legs are bent and are ready to perform any quick maneuver no matter what happens next.

His position, seem to be very effective as the other students suddenly hesitated to attack. No one wanted to be the first one to be taken out by the strange level 1 freshman.

Meanwhile, General Hou's eyes are already glowing in anticipation of the upcoming brawl, it's like he did not wish to stop the fight so that he could see for himself the true capability of the young man before him.

However, no matter how he wishes to see it, today is not that day.

"What is happening here!" an angry voice suddenly interrupted the conflict.

A tall woman began walking down the field while glaring at the student before her. While behind the tall woman there stood three old men wearing hooded robes. When she got the attention of everyone the four of them walks towards the crowd.

"Why is it that you 3rd years are ganging up on a freshman?" she shouted.

Everyone turned silent all of a sudden.

Then Captain Gong stood up and realized that this scene was his fault. He did not know why he suddenly lost his mind upon seeing Ji Taiyon getting wounded that he did not stop the others from attacking the young lad.

"Coach! I'm sorry… It's all my fault!" Captain Gong said while standing in attention.

"That's right… you are going to take responsibility for this along with the rest of you… And you…" she shouted then quickly glared at Xin Ja.

At this time, Xin Ja has already recovered his wits and realized that he is about to do something stupid. He did not know why, but at that time, he is actually ready to kill someone.

"You follow me!" she shouted at Xin Ja.

Xin Ja slowly stood up, then as if realizing what he could have done, he let go of the weapon in his hand.

He lowered his gaze and bit his lips as he felt a bit embarrassed of what had happened. He followed behind the tall woman and the two other elderly men, while the other one was left in the field.

When the group was away, the elder with a hooded robe that was left looked at the rest of the students.

"You… you youngsters are really naïve. You do not know how to observe your opponent. If the coach has not arrived and seen what is about to happen, then… I think we would be picking you all up from the infirmary…" the old man said with a frown.

"Stupid… all of you are truly stupid! Captain Gong… we are going for reevaluation, get everyone in the training room!" the elder shouted.

Everyone seems to be doubtful but dare not say anything in front of the elder.

The elder then shifted his gaze at General Hou.

"General… I hope that you would not succumb to your impulse as a soldier. Remember, these are just students… they are not yet ready for combat… We still have two years to prepare them for that." The elder said then turn around and left.

General Hou frowns after hearing that, but he did not say anything. He just sheepishly scratches his head while shaking his head.

"These old guys pamper these bastards too much… It would have been a good show if that lad Xin Ja beat these guys up… that would be a good way to straighten their attitude… Hehe…" he muttered to himself with a chuckle.

But before he could say anything else, he suddenly felt a chilling sensation behind him.

"I heard that…" a female voice interrupted his thoughts.

General Hou's body stiffens as he quickly turns around and shows a fawning smile on his face.

"Ah… Daughter! How did you get in here that fast?" he said while clapping his hands together.

"I thought I told you to let that student of mine enter, I did not say to create trouble…" Hou Anqing said in a cold tone.

"But… but that young lad… he… he is a raw talent. I truly wanted to see it for myself… Sigh… Anyway, the coach has already seen what he can do, so you don't have to worry anymore…" General Hou said as he patted his daughter's shoulder.

Hou Anqing pinches her father's hand and lifted it off her shoulder.

"That is good then… I hope that this would not happen again, okay?" she said with a smile, but General Hou could feel the coldness in her gaze.

…

By this time, Xin Ja is already sitting inside a comfortable room with a hot tea served in front of him.

The tall woman who is the coach of the Ogden Academy team for the War Games is currently looking at his profile.

Her brows are crumpled while looking at his profile as if she is doubtful of their truthfulness.

"Let me get this straight… You are the son of Xin Jong, right?" she asked with a hint of doubtfulness.

"Ye… yes mam…" Xin Ja replied feeling a bit pressured by the woman.

"Hmm… I see… So… it seems that for once at least the rumors are wrong." She said while closing the scroll and then putting it on the table.

"I am An Taining, and I am the coach of the War Games team of Ogden academy. These two elders are by assistant coaches, and… you already met General Hou and Captain Gong, those two are from the recruitment. I've seen your potential, I hope that you can lend us a hand…" she said as she rested her back on the backrest of the chair.

Xin Ja was a bit taken aback as he did not know what to say at this time. But then he already realized that these people are actually recruiting him for some kind of sports or something. But he did not know how that sports go so, how could he answer?

Seeing the confusion in his eyes, Coach An Taining, signaled one of the elderly men beside her.

"Young man, we are from the War Games team of Ogden Academy. The War Games is a sport created to train students about combat tactics and fighting. It simulates almost an actual war scenario which would prepare and enable the kingdom to pick the best of the best from the academies throughout the kingdom…"

Then the old man explained the rules of the War Games and how it is played. Xin Ja learned that in a single battle, there are around 20 players. Out of the 20 players, 10 are the so-called Attackers or soldiers that would be in the front lines, while behind them there are four Defenders, A Commander, two Healers, and three Rangers.

The game is either played in an open field or in complex terrain. But most of the time, the academy contests, are held in an open field.

This is the only place where one can show how strong their team really is. In open raw combat where one can show their talent and ability to the public.

After hearing the explanation, Xin Ja's heart is already brimming with excitement. He did not know why, but he is already excited to go home and tell his father that he was chosen to participate in such an honorable event. And it was just his first day in school.

"So… will you join the team?" she asked.

Actually, An Taining could already tell that the boy is excited to join from his rich expression alone after hearing the explanation from the elder. She could tell that the boy would actually agree. The only problem now is how they could convince his father.

Xin Jong is known in the town for pampering his only son. So she did not know if he would agree with him joining.

But then, she could sense something about the boy which made her think that the boy might be hiding something, even from his father. It was her instinct that is telling her to recruit the boy no matter what.

"Umm… I… I really wanted to. But… but I have to tell my father first. I know that if he heard this, he would be excited." Xin Ja said not giving his answer directly.

"Alright… after your classes, I will wait for you outside the academy. Let me, open this great news to him personally then." An Taining said with a smile.

Xin Ja nodded his head.

After that, he returns to his classroom and everyone is now looking at him like he is some rare species. How can they not understand what just happened in the field just a while ago? They clearly saw it… This simple-looking young lad actually took down two 3rd level Ki fighters. How could not feel a hint of fear towards him?

As Xin Ja got seated, Qing Joming tap him on his shoulder.

When Xin Ja saw his smiling face, he almost jump out of his seat.

Qing Joming right now is showing a creepy smile on his face that made all of the hair on Xin Ja's skin stand on end.
