Xian was....dumbfounded but, it was soon replaced, as his mood suddenly changed and anger engulfed all of his body, the very moment he heard a familiar vitriolic mocking voice.
"Li Zhong!" Xian gritted his teeth in rage.
Fragments of humiliation and mockery, started flashing inside his mind.
Like Xian, Li Zhong was an orphan too.
And, on the top of that he had a B-rank ability, pyrokinesis — the ability that allowed the user to generate fire and manipulate it.
So, was his arrogance....
He was the most talented orphan, in the orphanage, considered as a hero, in the eyes of the orphans, but was, actually a demon. He bullied the weak orphans as if they were some scrape goat, never letting them to complain, nor even scream.
And, among them was, Xian!...
Due, to his ability, he always saw people, with this belief that they were of small status compared to him; in fact, he considered them as bullying toys.
When, Li Zhong heard that Xian was going to participate in the entrance exam, his anger seemed to no boundary. And, by and by, he decided to do so, also, in order to humiliate him, but, his plan was foiled immediately, as Xian, didn't entered the row of the non-ability participants.
Finally, he couldn't hold his anger anymore, and so, was he here.
Xian was enraged!.....
But, he regained his composure as, a group of words appeared inward his vision, indeed.....it was the system.
[‹‹Dear, host, the system has found a sinner›› ]
[«Name: Li Zhong»]
[«Difficulty: Normal»]
[«WARNING!»]
[ ‹The system is sensing a strong aura, coming in this way — probably, it is one of the instructors in charge of the test. The system, advices to stay out of any disputes, with the target and the sinner›]
[ Meters - 70m...69... 68...]
Xian wanted to curse, his luck, but too bad, the meters decreased constantly, and he gulped his saliva.
At, last, an idea, struck his brain, as he helped himself to stand up on his feet and brushed the dust from his body away, even throwing, nonchalantly, as if ignoring the confused Li Zhong.
"Hey! Trash! What the fu*k? You want to make enemies with me, Li Zhong, a B-rank. You dare, you fu*king filthy bastard?" Li Zhong proudly roared.
The moment, the words escaped from Li Zhong's mouth, different gazes of anxiety from the participants fell upon him and Xian Hu.
But! The most amazing fact was that Xian was as calm as a cucumber.....ignoring Li Zhong and the gazes.
"Hey! Didn't you hear me? Beg me already!..." Li Zhong was losing his patience, he thought that after saying a few words to Xian and scaring him a little, he would beg him to stop, humiliating himself in the process, but, he didn't!....
[Meters - 30m...29....28....]
Xian nonchalantly stared at the decreasing numbers in front of him, finally deciding to take some serious action, now....
"Idiot!" Xian finally remarked.
This — single word, caused everyone to go silent as they started in the direction of Xian, thinking how cool he was!.....
This single word was enough for everyone to have a good impression of him.
And, also, of course, this single word was enough for Li Zhong to go crazy in anger.
"Xian, you son of a bit*h! You dare! I'm gonna, fu*king kill you today!" Fire engulfed all of his right hand,but surprisingly, the skin didn't burn at the slightest....the flames started rising as he proceded to punch Xian.
This was the ability of Li Zhong, pyrokinesis!
But too, bad for him, before the punch could reach the calm Xian, a hand appeared out of nowhere, stopping the attack.
"Li Zhong! You are accused of fighting and humiliating a fellow participant using your ability. You are hereby, disqualified for this behavior and are told to exit the exam immediately, or....the consequences will be too harsh for you!" A man in his 30s spoke up as he stopped the attack with his bare right hand.
He wore...kinda, a classic black suit, with white patterns all over, his hair was crimson in color, and had a bit of saffron hue, though his eyes were black in color.
"Who are you to begin with?" Li Zhang arrogantly asked to the stranger as he back off his hand, only to find his flames were extinguished!....
"Me? I am Mu Shan, an A-rank hunter and an instructor in this academy, I am incharge of the initial test, you'll be giving, now scram!" Mu Shan dropped a bombshell, startling Li Zhang and the others there, excluding Xian.
No words, escaped Li Zhang's mouth. His whole body trembled in fear.
Alas! Nothing could be done now...
What could an arrogant B-rank as him do something to an A-rank hunter, and if that was not enough he was the instructor of the school.
There was not a slightest thing he could do except leaving! Nor could he refute, nor fight back.....
And, so the arrogant Li Zhong hung his face, dejectedly and left the exam center, with humiliation.
The plan he devised, but bounced back at him only!
Such a manipulator was Xian!
