"You! How!? You should have died!" Derek yelled as he pointed at Yi Tan. He didn't understand how Yi Tan escaped that attack just now!
"How I did it is none of your concern. But what is your concern is the fact that you just tried to kill me and my friends. So… You need to pay for it." Yi Tan took a step forward. This one step looked as if he teleported because he instantly appeared in front of Derek. His right fist was already covered in arcs of lightning as he hammered it right into Derek's face. Derek had no chance to even try to defend as he felt his body suddenly go horizontal and then the feeling of being slammed into the pavement below him as his entire face caved in. The feeling of intense pain shot through his entire body as the bones in his face shattered into millions of pieces.
Once Derek was down, Yi Tan's body flashed once more, and he appeared on top of the building nearby. "Tan!" Ana and Mei both yelled out as they ran over to him.
"Are you okay?" Ana asked as she worriedly looked at him.
Mei was patting Yi Tan up and down, checking for injuries. Only when she saw he was completely fine did she let out a sigh of relief. "I am glad you are okay."
"I'm fine, but I can not say the same for them. For the time being, I didn't kill them. But unless they get healed by someone, they will be bedridden for a while." Yi Tan looked over the edge of the building down at the battlefield below and fell into deep thought. He was debating whether he should kill them or not.
While he was lost in thought, he felt two slender arms wrap around his waist and Mei's voice entering his ear. "Just leave it. There is no need to finish them off."
"Mmm. Your right. No need to dirty my hands on them." Yi Tan turned himself around and scratched Mei's ears as he said: "We should find Instructor Johan and let him know what happened."
"No need, I watched the whole thing." Instructor Johan's voice came out of nowhere. Yi Tan looked towards where the voice was coming from to see not only Instructor Johan appear but Tim and Amy as well. "I planned to step in if you kids were in trouble. But it seems you finished things well."
Instructor Johan had noticed that the three had stopped. He turned around to see what was up, but when he saw Derek, it took Amy and Tim and hid by the side to watch how things turned out.
"Yeah, Tan, that movement skill just now was amazing!" Tim shouted as he ran over and patted Yi Tan on the shoulder. Mei frowned as she let go of Yi Tan and backed away. "Hey Mei, why are you treating me like some kind of insect?"
"You... Stink!" Mei said two words coldly before hurried over to Ana.
"What!? How do I stink!?" Tim sniffed his armpits only to freeze as he made a strange face. "What the hell!? Why do I smell so bad!? Fuck! No wonder Amy was keeping ten meters away from me!"
"Since you now understand, can you also stay ten meters away from me as well?" Yi Tan held his nose as he quickly backed away from Tim.
"Haha! It seems someone has a mischief side and cast a curse on you." Instructor Johan said with a laugh. "Maybe the one who cast it is a girl and doesn't want you near any girls."
"Huh!? Who!? I don't remember any girls getting near me." Tim was confused. He did not remember anyone getting close to him to cast any curses. Plus, you would need to have a dark element ability to even cast a curse.
Tim looked at Amy, who snorted and said: "I am not the only one with the dark element in the house. That girl Grace has it too, so don't go thinking I have any feelings for you because there is no way in hell I would get close to you."
"Wait, why are you making such a disgusted face while saying that!? I am not that bad, am I!? Brother, am I!?" Tim looked at Yi Tan pleadingly. He really wanted to know if he was that incapable of making girls like him!
"Tim..." Yi Tan looked up at his friend and shook his head.
"What!? What!?" Tim was confused and started to become self conscious. He looked at the other girls, who all averted their eyes, not daring to look at him.
"Haha! I am just joking, man. But think about it, if it wasn't Amy who was the one who did it and the only one else you have been in contact with that is able to use dark elements is Grace. You can ask her why she would do such a thing." Although Yi Tan said this, he could probably guess why she did. It would be pretty obvious as she was weak in her power, and in order to assure herself a future where she could survive, her only option would be to find someone who would marry her in the future. And her target just happened to be Tim, who was shunned by the other girls. "Let's just say all your questions will be answered soon."
"I don't really get it, but alright, I will ask that Grace girl about it then when we get back." Tim scratched his head. He kind of wanted to know why she would cast a curse on him to make him stinky. "I wonder if she likes me..." He muttered under his breath.
"Alright, since things happened, we will end training here for today. Tan, Mei, and Ana rest up. We will start again bright and early." Instructor Johan decided to end training for today after seeing Yi Tan fight. He wanted to adjust his training course a little bit more to fit Tan's abilities.
"What about them?" Yi tan asked, pointing at the scene below them.
"Someone will be here soon to collect them, don't worry about it. It is their fate if they die. One thing you have to remember, Tan, this academy is survival of the fittest. If they can't beat you and die due to injuries, it is on them, not you. Come on let's head back."
