The next day, Sam, steve and Vera where seen walking to school. Steve, Vera, I will like to bring in Luke into our group, I want everyone to have a say in matters concerning this group. Vera shrugged, Sam I have no problem with him been in the group but he has to know the rules of no betrayals and no looking down on those that are weaker. Sam nodded, steve what do you say. Steve shook his head vehemently, Sam I do not think getting Luke into our group is a good thing. He will bring in problems to our group. Steve I do not think the fault is Lukes it is the fault of the previous generations of making our generation have the believe that strength was everything and the lack of punishment for bullying emboldened people more. I think I have a way to humble him let us get to class first. Sam got to class and wrote a note asking Vera yo pass it to Luke. Sam left the class and went to the field. Sam took out his sword and sent a message yo the hawk he tamed when I call you do come around. In class Steve gave Luke Sam's note, on the paper was written Luke I want you to be my subordinate. if you refuse come to the field and we will see who is stronger whoever loses serves the other.
Luke was infuriated, he rushed out of the class followed by all the people in class, Sam what is the meaning of this rubbish. A weakling like you dear challenge me. I know you have improved in the last couple of days but you still are at no level to fight me. lukes friends all laughed. Luke I think it has been long he has gotten beaten up and all of a sudden he is itching to get one. Ken do you think I can defeat him. Sam you have yo learn to believe your self. Luke is strong but if you play your cards right and utilize your strengths you should be able yo come out on top. Sam smiled and said do you accept to answer to me when I beat you. Luke been angry drew his sword and rushed at Sam. sam stepped aside letting Luke rush by, then he drew out his sword and took a fighting stand. they both clashed and were thrown back. Luke was surprised, is this thesame person I use to bully. Luke became serious channelling his his spiritual energy into the sword. looks sword had a new look it was covered by water but constantly moving round the sword with great pressure. this made the sword dangerous, Sam also poured his spiritual energy into his sword and it was covered by a golden fire if one looks well at the fire one will notice small arcs of lightning in them.
Luke was not happy how things were going so he protected himself with earth element. Ken why didn't you tell me he uses dual element. Sam you have to learn to expect the unexpected, he used earth to counter your lightning. Now focus here he comes, Sam immediately rushed at Luke. the fight was fast paced Sam activated his titan bloodline, this made him stronger and faster is body was almost as hard as the earth protecting Luke within a few seconds they have made hundreds of attack they both became breathless Sam at was looking at his sword which had no effect on Luke. what should I do but before Sam could think of what to do Luke came rushing at him and shouting no one knew when Mr philip came around and was watching the battle. Their sword crashed together and both sword vibrated there was a chiming noise. the sound was loud that it almost caused damage to the ear drums of those around, both were bleeding from their nose and they vomited blood their hands were numb but for pride non gave up. Sam and Luke both ran toward and started trading attacks this they did for twenty minutes. the ground under them was cracked, the ground was drenched with sweat from the two combatant. Luke knew his reputation was on th line he became more desperate.
Sam Luke called if I beat you you have to serve me do you understand saying this Luke covered his sword with earth element making it heavier after that he attacked Sam Sam was immediately sent flying and fell to the ground both used the opportunity to take a healing pill. in the next thirty minutes that followed was a fight without defence. Luke had protected his body with earth while Sam activated his phoniex and titan bloodline. they both had high defences. lukes sword was swift and fast but something made Sam's sword different. Sams sword was fluid and flexible, it seemed to have a mind of its own it automatically defended Sam. and Sam's sword looks to get sharper as the fight went on. the sword started penetrating the earth defence around Luke. luke was not happy with this and decided to strengthen his defence. the two were frustrated thinking of way to take each other down but unknown to Sam his sword art was improving and so was his cultivation, it shot up to peak innate realm. Sam became stronger his blows with the sword became heavier. Luke was constantly pushed back although the sword could not reach his body he was almost blown off the field. Luke became panicked which resulted in him making all kind of mistakes.
Sam could smell blood he knew that Luke was shaken so he also attacked him verbally. After keeping it up the next five minutes Luke's defences disintegrated. Sam quickly knocked him to the ground, placing his sword at Lukes neck. Do you surrender? Do you give up?Luke nodded his head saying you win. Sam sheathed his sword and helped Luke up after which the crowd dispersed, preparing for practice when they saw their teacher. Luke looked at Sam if I am yo be your subordinate what do I gain from you. as a subordinate I should also have something I gain from you. Sam threw a cultivation technique at Luke and a sword technique that complimented what he had learned. this is the first thing you get from me, I think of you more as a friend than a subordinate. Now there are rules for been in the group, first you should never bully or Luke down at anyone in the group just because you are stronger. secondly you have to always be available to train and meet up where ever and whenever you are called up. thirdly you must listen to me when I order you as I would not give instructions to my friends unless it is absolutely important.
your first task is to come to my house three hours after classes. Sam then signalled to the hawk beast who flew down and landed between Sam and Luke the whole school was in an uproar they taught a spirit beast has decided to attack. the teacher ran back with his sword drawn the weaker students ran away putting as much distance as they could between them and the beast. but to there surprise Sam walked towards the beast and started touching it. he looked at Luke this is also on of the benefits of being my friends, as a subordinate you do not get this. so now are you willing to be my friend or remain a subordinate. Luke looked at the beast can I touch it. Sam nodded and spoke to the beast. Luke walked over and touched the beast. luke while touching the beast was in a deep thought what do you do with the beast Sam. it is a means of transportation and also a fight partner whenever I get into a serious fight. it has a trimendious room for growth so will be around a long time. Luke looked at Sam in the eye, I am sorry for bullying you and yes I want yo be friends with you. Sam laughed nice answer and your bullying made me wish to be stronger without it I won't be here.
