112 Tianfeis mischief (1/2)

Tianfei wiped away the sweat on her forehead as she buried the final formation plate constructing her grand formation. She buried it in a patch of dirt with grass that stuck out it before pulling a bit of shrubs over it to completely conceal her deed. She giggled as she moved to the center of the formation and injected her qi in. Tianfei's body started to distort with her body slowly bending with the light until she was simply a faded tint in the air. A giggling voice could be heard as leaves shuffled within the forest.

”Oho? One person is finally in here!”

A boy no older than her shuffled through the undergrowth in fear of getting detected. He was careful and made sure he did not leave any tracks behind. With the rain pouring, all his footsteps were covered by the mud that flowed downhill.

”Hah...thank god...there is nobody here.”

The boy took a cautious scan of the area and found a large bush. He slowly climbed into it concealing his entire body. He looked cautiously taking out a small box and putting it to the side. The boy took out a small piece of fried dough and placed it in his mouth. This was the only meal he had for the day. He had skipped breakfast to avoid getting urges to go during the examination. He decided that he would eat only if he had to. Tianfei chuckled as she had watched the boy eating. Unknown to him, there the blade of the dagger literally right in front of him.

”This place...It would be great for a formation...ah...I should have studied that.”

The boy reached out to grab another piece of fried dough. He frowned as he placed the piece in his mouth.

'Did I only pack this much?'

He slowly chewed as he set up his crossbow letting it slightly poke out of the bushes.

*munch*

The boy's eyes widened as he scanned the area. He swore he heard something just then. He looked suspiciously at a bush in the distance. Tianfei licked her oily fingers as she sat on the ledge looking down at the boy. The boy stared at the bush in the distance and pulled the trigger.

”AH!”

Tianfei frowned turning her head at the sound in the other bush. A girl jumped out charging at the bush the boy was at with a wooden sword in hand. On the other hand, there was a cold steamed bun. Tianfei's eyes lit up running to the spot the girl was at. Tianfei found a neatly wrapped bag filled with 2 steamed buns. She took the buns and stuffed them into her mouth and watched the battle behind her unfold.

The boy reloaded his crossbow and pushed it to the head of the girl. The girl dropped down and slashed upwards grazing the skin of his stomach. The boy kicked forwards however the girl stepped to the side and kicked him back sending him flying.

”As weak as ever.”
