(MC POV)
Night fell and the event soon became the hottest of news throughout the Sect.
It wasn't often that you heard one of the students turned into a giant, mythical, cannibalistic monster and your Sect Master and several other Elders had to go burn it to death after all.
Except they didn't actually burn it to death.
As Sylphy had predicted, just when they thought the monster was dead when it had gone quiet, the Wendigo destroyed the ground and used a piece of earth as a barrier from the flames. With the improvised shield in place, the Wendigo then leapt away from them with inhuman speed and disappeared outside the Sect.
Apparently it had curled itself up when it was being burnt to protect its face from the flames, indicating it might be it's only weak point.
Now that we know Tekiteh was actually a monster, it kind of explained why he was acting like that.
