Ace Of Terrans

Shi Lang glanced at his students and then at Shi Tao as he said, “Go on, tell her what you know about the competition.”

Theseus stood up, he was slightly surprised by this young girl, who joined the class. He still maintained his composure and said, “The Federal Competition is held every year, however, only young students below seventeen are allowed to enter. This competition is organized with the idea to nurture young students and give them a glimpse of what real fighting could be like.”

Shi Lang nodded and said, “That sums it up. Sit down, Theseus. Now that you know the basic idea behind the competition, allow me to tell you what it is that you all have to worry about. The competition is more like a rivalry between different schools.”

Shi Tao tilted her head, she looked extremely adorable, and the girls in the class were mesmerized. Shi Lang smiled and said, “The federal star academy is not the only academy in the federation. It stands on top of the rest of the schools, whether it is in terms of size or quality. Every year, the participants from our school have to face tough competition. The rest of the schools gang up and they all target our school.

This increases the load of the people, so despite how awesome our graduate students be, we have yet to win the trophy from the federal competition or should I say, Federal youth competition.”

The students all opened their eyes in realization. They did not know about such a thing. Theseus said, “To think such a method was used to suppress the young talents in our school. Teacher, is it really impossible to stand against those people?”

Shi Lang smiled and said, “It is not impossible, however, since you all came forward with this proposal, I leave it to you all to figure out the way. This will be your first test.”

Shi Tao pouted her lips and said, “I do not like tests.”

The rest of the students smiled and Vanessa said, “We do not like them either, but teacher Shi loves to test us.”

Shi Tao scratched her head as she did not know what to say about this. Shi Lang said, “Except Tao, all of you get going, give me a thousand push-ups, and Vanessa will have to do additional three hundred squats.”

Vanessa scrunched her nose and wanted to cry, but no tears came out of her hollow eyes. In the past month, the pain and torture they have suffered were enough to temper them enough to endure this punishment. Shi Lang punished them because they showed dissatisfaction. In the military, the soldiers were not allowed to express dissatisfaction regarding the orders. This was seen as a taboo, and Shi Lang trained these guys to be soldiers.

The class got up and began completing the tasks they were given. Shi Tao watched them all from the side, and asked in a low voice, “Dad, when can Tao do that?”

Shi Lang said, “After Tao manages to channel the energy in her body using the breathing method.”

Shi Tao pouted but she did not complain. Shi Lang scratched the tip of her nose gently and said, “Come on, get back to meditating.”

The girl was obedient and she followed his words. Shi Lang looked at the students at the side and said, “Theseus, come here.”

The young man walked over while panting slightly. Shi Lang manipulated his communicator and passed him a few documents. He said, “These are the dedicated training plans I have made for you all. Pass it to them.”

The young man nodded and went back to pass on the plans to his classmates. The students were happy to receive the plans, they knew that their teacher would not mislead them and make proper plans for their future. Shi Lang had a great experience, he was omnipotent to them. So, the students followed the plans with great dedication.

The competition will be held a month later, and Shi Lang planned to have as many of them cross to the third-star level. Theseus and Vanessa eased up his pressure as they paid strict attention to their classmates and none of them were allowed to slack at all. The school life seemed to be moving on slowly, until one day, Shi Lang heard a rumor, that Teacher Shi was using school resources to support his daughter.

Shi Lang ignored it at first, but one day, Shi Tao came to the class with a handprint on her face. The class was in session when the killing aura in Shi Lang’s heart leaked. The students all froze; some were having difficulty breathing, and one fainted and fell to the ground. Shi Lang retained his aura and asked Shi Tao gently, “Tao, who hit you?”

At this moment, the students noticed the faint handprint on Shi Tao’s cheek. The girl shook her head. She did not meet Shi Lang’s gaze. The young man caressed her cheek and the spirit energy healed the bruise. Then he raised her chin with his fingers and asked, “What happened?”

Shi Tao’s eyes turned red, she could not help but throw herself in his arms. He was the only source of comfort for her in this world. She loved Shi Lang a lot. She started weeping, and for the first time in her life, she cried.

Shi Lang did not rush her to tell him what happened to her and who was responsible for it, even if she did not tell him, he will be able to find it out with ease. He just stood there, letting the little girl vent her grief. He patted her back gently and said, “There, it’s okay now. You have me, right?”

Shi Tao calmed down after half an hour and said, “I want to go back home.”

Shi Lang asked, “Why is that? Do you not like it here? All the elder sisters are nice to you, and big brothers pamper you too right?”

Shi Tao shook her head in his embrace and said, “Only your class is good to me, that elder sister said that Tao is a bastard who gobbles free food. She said that Tao is a witch.”

Shi Lang froze, his heart turned cold at this moment. The young man blinked to control his anger and asked, “Who is that elder sister, tell me, I will tell her that my Tao is not like that.”

Shi Tao explained how a girl approached her and asked her what her relationship with Shi Lang was and then she started scolding her and saying bad things. Shi Tao told her not to say such a thing and that she was innocent, but then that girl slapped her and told her to get lost.

Shi Lang clenched his fist and said, “Baby, you stay with Vanessa. I will go solve this matter.”

Shi Tao shook her head and held onto his clothes, he knew that she did not want him to leave her. So he gave in and said, “Come, we will go out now.”

He carried the little girl in his arms. Theseus said, “It is bad, let’s follow them. There is a misunderstanding, and given how angry the teacher is, he might go on a rampage.”

The class quickly followed the young man. Shi Lang was walking through the campus with cold eyes, and his aura alone pushed the people away from him. The temperature was low and the class following him in distance caught the attention of the entire faculty. Shi Lang did not care about anything, he was headed to the administration office to find out which class the girl, who hurt Shi Tao, belonged to.

Quickly he arrived at the office and asked the operator to narrow down the search and find the student. His glaring crimson eyes were so frightening that the operator did not dare to ask anything and quickly found what he wanted. Shi Lang asked Shi Tao to recognize the girl who hit her.

Shi Tao recognized the student and Shi Lang said, “Let’s go meet this, Student Aria.”

Shi Lang carried the girl in her arms the entire time. At this moment, the advanced class had organized a rare sports meet for the teachers and the students. However, the people present here have caught the whiff that something was wrong with the celebrity of their school.

Just then they caught sight of Shi Lang followed by his class walking over with a child in his arms. They found it odd as to why the entire special class was coming over with the teacher. An old teacher asked, “Teacher Lang, what brings you here? If you are going to participate in this meet, how will we old fellows win?”

Shi Lang smiled amiably and shook his head and said, “I am not here to play, Senior Alto, I am here to find a student.”

The old man and the rest were surprised, they thought that the student who caught the eye of Shi Lang must be special. Another teacher said, “Teacher Shi, tell us which student caught your eye. However, you are not allowed to poach.”

Shi Lang chuckled and said, “I am a simple man, my humble self cannot teach such an amazing student.”

This statement shocked the people.
