“Did the Principal actually go crazy! To cause so much trouble for everyone.” Fu Da could not help but complain.
A few days ago, the Principal suddenly made an announcement, If the school could not obtain good results for this year’s Star Wind Martial Meet, the subsequent two years worth of holidays would be cancelled, and the announcement was aimed at all students and teachers.
The Principal of Crystal Sky Academy’s authority was extremely heavy, and nobody could say otherwise. Anybody who has stayed in Crystal Sky Academy before would know that the Principal’s words were never empty.
At that moment, people in Crystal Sky Academy were squealing like pigs and running around like dogs.
All the teachers were like springs, day and night squatting down to observe students, adding more classes, all kinds of additional special training, there was no day and no night of actual combat practise.
All the students of Crystal Sky Academy felt that the suffering was too much to even say anything. There were rumours that those who skipped classes, or were even just late, under the enormous pressure due to circumstances, would be punished severely. In the past, all they had to do was spend a little bit of money to bribe the teachers, and they could have free days for themselves. But now this method was useless, as the teachers were merciless and strict due to the threat from the Principal.
No one could escape their classes, and everyday the students who suffered the punishments, stood along the corridors.
Fu Da was the one suffering the punishment that day.
“If not for those three assholes.” his follower who was familiar with inside information said in a low voice: “Do you remember the three country bumpkins from that day? At that time, I saw them enter our school, and felt something off about it. However, I never expected that because of them, we have such a big calamity!”
“You are talking about those three country bumpkins?” Fu Da asked. He also saw the three of them that day, but he did not think to link these two matters together.
“That old man is Caramel Academy’s Principal, and the other two guys, one is Ah Mo Li, the other is Tang Tian, you should know, they have caused a sensation these few days!”
Fu Da nodded his head: “Yea yea i’ve heard of it, Mad Bull Ah Mo Li changed schools. But why would they have anything to do with our principal? Did they accidentally offend the Principal?”
“I am not clear about what exactly happened either. But I heard from a few people, that Principal and that old man quarreled in the Principal’s office. After that, this matter blew out!” The follower continued to rant.
“That cannot be.” Fu Da did not believe a word, as if he heard a joke that could no longer be funny: “A broken school like Caramel Academy, what is there to fight about? Unless he wants to compete with us at the Star Wind Martial Meet? His brain must be fried.”
He was not one to brag, because what school was Crystal Sky Academy? It was Star Wind City’s number one school! Caramel Academy was third last, which meant the two of them had nothing in common to compete. If not for the transfer school issue, Fu Da would had never even heard of that school’s name.
“This world’s got too many people who are over their heads.” The follower shrugged his shoulders and continued: “Their brains are fried, we are just lying down and still get caught in the crossfire!”
“It truly is!” Fu Da opened his big mouth along with his startled face.
“That‘s true” The follower felt bitter.
Fu Da felt an anger swelling from within: “That group of trash, it’s ok that their brains are dead, but they came and implicated us! No way, we cannot let it end like this.”
“What do you want to do?” The follower suddenly sprang up with energy.
Fu Da laughed: “ They wish to fight with our Crystal Sky Academy at the Star Wind Martial Meet? These toads did not even look in the mirror, what qualifications do they have to rely on themselves? What a joke! I will make them realise the truth is far from what they have ever thought.”
“You mean you wish to….” The gleam of light shone in the follower’s eyes.
“Ha, we do not need to wait for the Star Wind Martial Meet, we will just find a few guys to teach them a lesson. Don’t they wish to participate in the Martial Meet? Then we will beat them up until they are unable to join!” Fu Da eyes were cold, sneering: “They think with just one Mad Bull Ah Mo Li, they can turn the tables? Beast Academy doesn’t even dare to compete with us Crystal Sky, with one Ah Mo Li, they become so arrogant? Dispose of them!”
“Yes, we shall find a few guys! Fuck, this unpleasantry, must get out!”
Very quickly, Fu Da’s suggestion rapidly spread amongst the students whom responded. Once they thought about their current hellish situation, all of them turned mad with anger.
Fu Da did not expect for so many people to reply.
However, to not attract the attention of the teachers and receive more punishment, they finally chose two really strong students, while the rest covered for the two of them in class.
Shen Yuan, third year student, Crystal Sky Academy rank nine.
Yang Yong, second year student, Crystal Sky Academy rank twenty two.
Both of them disappeared.

It was unsure if it were because of cultivating the Crane Body, but the Cycle of Hardship wasn’t tiring at all. Tang Tian’s to date Flash Fist, had already been perfected, and he could freely use any way to release the Flash Fist.
After meditating for an hour, his fatigue was wiped clean. Cultivating in the Crane Body led to a huge increase of True Power regeneration.
According to the comprehension of the Spirit Card, the Crane’s Body was only the beginning stage of the Crane-Style Qi Manual and was definitely far from the end. Tang Tian’s Crane Body could only be considered the fledgling stage. He needed to open up more smaller qi channels to strengthen the Crane Body. After strengthening the Crane Body, the crane would become vivid and realistic, its power would be formidable.
When he had cultivated to that stage, with a thought, he could solidify the Crane body inside and his body would surge with True Power. In a blink of an eye, the True Power would be released and was indestructible. It was soft yet firm.
Tang Tian felt that his luck was on a roll.
The Crane-Style Qi Manual was exactly the best complement to the Southern Cross Hardship Plate. Not only did it help him cultivate martial techniques, it could also increase his True Power by leaps and bounds.
This was what Tang Tian needs; non-stop cultivation, and repetitions of hardship.
What was simpler than that?
Tang Tian was brimming with expectations for his body. He did not know how or what would happen if he cultivated the Crane Body till its pinnacle.
Tang Tian laughed out loud, jumped from the floor and ran out of his room. He could not wait to spar with Ah Mo Li.
Ah Mo Li was sweating like crazy on the training grounds. In his hand, he held onto a wooden blade that was almost as big as him. He shouted repeatedly but just as in the past, Old Fart Wei could not be seen anywhere.
Unknowingly, Tang Tian felt that Ah Mo Li was far more hardworking than usual. In reality though, Ah Mo Li had actually always been so hard working, Tang Tian had just never truly witnessed him train. However, now when he looked at the silhouette of Ah Mo Li, Tang Tian could not help but have a sudden thought: “Is Ah Mo Li more hardworking than me?”
Oh, it should probably be a misconception.
