Day after …
[-In the main office of Master Wushu-]
Feilong entered the main office of Master Wushu without any idea to why he was called.
Suddenly, flying books were being thrown to his direction.
As his initial reaction, he caught each one book and piled it one by one in front of him until it was close to his chin.
He was tall and had long hair.
Amongst the disciples of Master Wushu, Feilong was also the most handsome.
Aside from being the strongest and the most skilled in sword among the disciples of Master Wushu.
"Have I not told you that none of you will be joining this coming tournament?" an angry tone from Master Wushu.
The oldest disciple of Master Wushu was clueless about the accusation of their master.
"I-I know, master! I completely understand your decision. I would not even dare go against your wishes and command." Nervously pointed out by Feilong.
"Then care to explain, why there is a notice from the organizing committee of the tournament that they were pleased to receive the confirmation of this school's participation for this annual competition?" Master Wushu's voice was even raised to a more threatening pitch.
A bewildered look was painted all over on Feilong's face hearing from his master that the organizing committee received a reply.
He could only remember that he threw the invitation to the trash bin.
"DO YOU TAKE ME AS A FOOL!"
In Master Wushu's anger, a monstrous aura could be felt from their master.
Slowly, Feilong started to step backwards … Planning to get out of the office and run away from Master Wushu.
The moment Master Wushu looked directly at Feilong with an intent to attack.
"I think you need to be punished, Feilong! The hardest way!"
"M-master! C-can't you believe me? … I really did not …" Feilong was not able to finish his words because he had to defend himself first than finish his statement.
…
Meanwhile,
[-In the Library-]
Ruh was tasked to supervise the {Junior-Ranked} disciples in their session in the library.
A loud explosion was heard coming from the main office of Master Wushu.
This made Ruh and the other disciples go outside the library and check what was happening.
Except for Shams and his accomplices who were looking guilty.
Unlike Shams, he continued reading … Unbothered and felt as if there was nothing wrong.
Others could not believe that for the first time they witnessed Feilong getting beaten by Master Wushu with a hardened wooden stick.
Due to the sudden bizarre occurrence with their master and the oldest disciple, Ruh turned around and looked back at those who remained in their looking guilty.
The accomplices and those who knew what really happened were acting unnaturally and sweating due to their guilt.
When Ruh stared at them more seriously …
All together, the accomplices of Shams pointed at his direction and together they uttered.
"It was Shams idea!" in unison the accomplices of Shams pointed at his direction.
"Cowards!" immediate response of Shams towards his accomplices.
Ruh could only face palm and heave a sigh due to another trouble Shams has created.
====================
After Ruh explained to Master Wushu what really happened.
Everyone was assembled to the courtyard.
From the {Senior-Ranked} to the {Junior-Ranked} …
Each disciple was standing, waiting for the announcement of Master Wushu.
While the {Apprentice-Ranked} disciples were standing behind Master Wushu, except for Feilong and Shay.
Shay was tending to the bruises of Feilong after passing out from Master Wushu's wrath.
Master Wushu felt sorry and regret for beating Feilong for thinking that it his oldest disciple whom replied the organizing committee.
Since he gathered everyone, it was time to announce to them regarding their unplanned participation for the upcoming school tournament.
Before starting his speech, he coughed to clear his throat …
"I gathered all of you. To announce, that for a certain reason due to stubbornness and persistence of others. This year, we are participating the school tournament."
There were cheers from most of the disciples that finally they are participating once more.
Though, there were guilty look from the accomplices of Shams because they could sense that Master Wushu was referring to them.
Master Wushu continued,
"Thus, tomorrow … Those who are interested to participate in each division must come along tomorrow with me to the capital city of the Golden Dragon Sect so that the registration for each participants could be submitted personally. Of course, there will be tests given before you could submit your registration as a participant. Remember, this tournament is invitational. Expect tough competition and strong opponents."
At the mention of strong opponents and tough completion, a glimmer in Shams and burning passion could be seen in his eyes by the other fellow disciples.
But it was not only Shams … Also those who could not wait to take part in the upcoming were excited at the thought of finally having the opportunity to showcase their skills and abilities in public.
Further explained by their master,
"This will not be compulsory for everyone. You can choose to opt out from participating from the tournament. Those who are only interested to participate will be going with me tomorrow to the capital city for the submission of registration. Now, you can all go back to your respective tasks and think about your decision wisely." End of the speech of Master Wushu.
Right after the sudden assembly announcement of Master Wushu.
His disciples contemplated and pondered each on their decision whether they will participate or not.
One of them has already totally decided and was contemplating on a different issue.
If what techniques and new moves will he use during the tournament.
If he will be allowed to use his combo-attacks and special moves.
As he stood outside, he looked at the sky if he could reach the heavens above and achieve all his dreams.
"Little Ryoku, too bad you are not qualified to register in any division. I bet that sucks!" Billy brushed Shams' hair after informing him about not qualifying to register in the tournament.
"Wait … What?!?!?!" Shams exclaimed loudly while his accomplices were walking their way to the kitchen.
< Sss … Hahahaha !!! They just used you !! Hahahaha !!! Sss …> Viper teased Shams.
