Chương 60: Chapter 60: Aftermath
It hurts... W-Where am I?
Tang Wulin's eyelids trembled and slowly open them, only to let out a hiss and close his eyes once more from the bright white light on top of him.
He tried moving his body but found out that he felt it hard in moving his body, extremely so. It took what seems like several minutes to just move his fingers.
This was the first time he's ever felt so uncomfortable, and he couldn't even remember how he ended up like this.
Minutes later however, he heard a familiar voice.
"Well, looks like you're in great condition already. Even though you've been asleep for two years."
Tang Wulin's eyes shot up wide in shock, his eyeballs was almost falling out, subconsciously, he leaned his body upwards, ignoring the discomfort of moving around, and screamed out loud without any hesitation.
"TWO YEARS?!" Two ear piercing voices shrieked throughout the infirmary and even the outside, making anyone who heard them jumped in surprise.
Tang Wulin blinked his eyes and turned to his left, there he found Xie Xie sitting upright on a overall white colored bed.
Looking around, he could see the entire room is mostly white colored with ten white beds, two occupied by him and Xie Xie, medical equipment were stationed near a desk along with two cabinets filled with medicine. Tang Wulin frowned, the smell of medicine and alcohol is thick in here that it almost made him faint.
Both looked at each up and down, and not in any suggestive manner, as they analyze each other's bodies, they quickly come to a realization.
They're wearing Eastsea Academy's uniform, their faces and body structure remained the same as when they last remember each other, white wraps of bandages covered their bare torso and arms. They looked like they've been through a life and death situation.
But they didn't however, Tang Wulin hissed as memories of how he ended in the infirmary came to his head.
Class promotion tournament, class five against class one, Xie Xie, Gu Yue, Xiu Ye...
In complete synchronization, both Xie Xie and Tang Wulin's bodies trembled while sitting on their respective beds.
"Ugh, big sister Mu Xi, please don't joke around like that. You almost gave me a heart attack." Mu Xi smirked and said. "Sorry not sorry. Besides, if I hadn't done it myself, you two would have been trolled by Xiu Ye. Do you seriously want that?"
Tang Wulin and Xie Xie's lips twitched, she has a point.
Rubbing the back of his head, the white bed sheet on his body was pulled down as he sat up with his feet out of the bed. Tang Wulin then asked.
"So, what really happened? And seriously, how long were we out for? Also, where's Gu Yue?"
Xie Xie grunted and forced himself to sit by the bedside. "I also have the same questions as him."
Mu Xi let out a sigh before flipping over her right palm upwards, on her middle finger, a black ring with white striations on it glowed, and she pulled out five plastic bags. She gave four of them to Tang Wulin while the last one was given to Xie Xie, then she turned around to get a chair.
Both boys looked down on their respective plastic bags in confusion before a familiar smell enter their nostrils.
Without any hesitation, they both tore the plastic bags open, all of which were filled with 50 meat buns in each bag, and quickly started devouring the food like hungry hyenas.
Mu Xi didn't say anything and continued sitting on her chair quietly as the two started eating.
After a few minutes of them eating, and still not finishing, Mu Xi then spoke up.
"You guys have been out of it for just about an entire day. Which is not due to your injuries but something else, which someone will explain later on. Also, do both of you remember how you two ended up here unconscious?"
The two paused and shook their heads.
"All I remember was before I could feel my trident hitting Xiu Ye, his body suddenly disappeared at a speed that I couldn't see and react. Flash Step, a technique he created that lets him move at a unnatural speed to the point of teleportation. Then, I felt an extreme pain coming from my left shoulder, like it was being pierced through with a huge drill, stunned and unable to keep up, he knocked me out by a chop to my neck." Tang Wulin clenched his hand in frustration, he thought that with his Golden Dragon King bloodline and his new weapon Atlanna, he would have finally caught up to Xiu Ye. He was wrong. He had been become overconfident and arrogant with the power his bloodline and trident gave him that he had subconsciously underestimated Xiu Ye.
The person in the entire school, which, he should never underestimate!
He felt like slapping himself several times for his stupidity. Though Xiu Ye had probably already done that by knocking him out and taught him a lesson, he should never become conceited, arrogant and underestimating his opponents just because he gained some power.
As Tang Wulin vowed to himself with his newfound motto, his blood boiled and spiritual power began to rise. Thus was the power of a protagonist.
Xie Xie more or less had the same statement; Xiu Ye disappeared from his spot in a flash, he then felt pain from both sides of his shoulders, and he then knocked out from a blow to the neck.
Xie Xie felt both shame and embarrassed. He had lost to a guy near his age and he couldn't even manage to fight back. What's worse, Xiu Ye was said to be a power attack system soul master so his speed shouldn't be as fast as him, a pure attack agility system soul master.
He clenched his hands, he has to train even more!
Mu Xi had closed her eyes and let out a sigh. "Alright, that seems to be right. Listen, as someone who had seen the entire fight, all that I saw, and possibly even everyone else except for teacher Wu who would seen everything with perfect detail with his cultivation, was that Xiu Ye vanished and the next thing was that you two had screamed and fell face first on the ground. Gu Yue then tried fighting Xiu Ye but that only ended with her butt on the ground and a fist just inches away from her face."
Xie Xie scoffed while still eating on his bun. "Wait, Gu Yue wasn't beat up? Oh, come on! That's bias for Xiu Ye."
Mu Xi glared at him. "She's a girl."
Xie Xie shrugged his shoulders. "So? We're a team. And teammates share all victories and defeats with each other, which includes our suffering as well. If my face gets punch, she also has to get punched to her face."
Tang Wulin and Mu Xi both stared at him like they were staring at a piece of trash then their expressions turned into pity, which Xie Xie caught and was confused. Why are they staring at me like that?
"What? Did I say something wrong? Or did the bun's sauce got on my face–aaaaaahhhh!!" Xie Xie wasn't able to finish his sentence as he felt an iron grip holding his head tight. It feels like his head is about to split!
"Oh? Teammates should share the same sufferings the have, right? Right now I have a massive headache. So you should also share this pain~" Gu Yue smiled sweetly and innocently as she stood behind Xie Xie, her right hand holding onto his head.
"Owowowowowowowowow! PLEASE, STOP! IT HURTS! OH MY GOD! HOLY SHIT! HOW ARE YOU SO STRONG?!"
Both Tang Wulin and Mu Xi ignored Xie Xie thrashing around while Gu Yue still kept an iron grip on the boy.
"Oh yeah, where's Ye?" Tang Wulin asked.
"Hm? Oh last I checked with him, he was still talking to teacher Wu about Class Zero." Gu Yue nonchalantly replied. "Hey, Mu Xi, I heard that you're also joining the training session?"
Mu Xi nodded. "Yup! Got both permission from my teacher and my parents, so I'll be joining you guys."
Tang Wulin raised a hand up, confusion on his face. "Uh, I'm sorry but, what? Class Zero? Training session? What's going on? What the hell happened when we we're unconscious?"
