”I-Impossible.”

The dim corridor suddenly became darker as Xiao Fang's death Reaper aura seeped out of him. When it reached the girl she began to tremble again.
The girl instantly regretted her actions. It didn't matter that he was a first year, she had never seen anyone break her spirit whip so effortlessly before.
'I'm dead, I'm dead, I'm dead...' she thought worriedly.
Unlike in the outer court, there were severe consequences for killing someone in the inner court, but still she felt as though he was going to do it. He was really going to take her life.
Every cell in her body was screaming for her to run, but her legs weren't responsive. But then, she heard what sounded like the hissing of a snake.
A steady stream of air was leaving Xiao Fang's lungs as he calmed himself down. As long as he was still conscious he wasn't going to let the urges take control of his actions. His fighting spirit was too strong for that.
Eventually the Death Reaper aura began to disappear, then the girl felt like she could breathe again. Just when she thought it was over, she suddenly felt a tugging sensation on her body. In the next moment she was being pulled across the floor by an invisible force towards Xiao Fang, stopping only a few meters away from him.
Now kneeling behind him she wanted to beg for her life, but before she could, he began to speak.
”I don't know who this Chen Li is. Tell her if she has something to say to me, she can come say it to me herself.”
”I will, I promise I will!” The girl said as if her life depended on it.
Xiao Fang continued to walk down the hallway leaving the girl behind, but even though he was gone she still couldn't get up.
In all her life she had never felt so close to death.
'That man is a monster.'

Standing farther back in the same curving hallway, Zhao Pan stood motionless.
'What was that...' she thought as sweat began to appear on her face.
When the feeling finally passed she cautiously continued walking down the hallway, eventually seeing a girl lightly trembling on her knees.
'What the hell happened here,' Zhao Pan thought.
She continued walking down the hallway, but when she got closer, the girl eventually heard Zhao Pan coming then began to panic,
”Get away!” She screamed.
Without thinking, she quickly whipped Zhao Pan with the same attack, but Zhao Pan easily caught the spirit whip in the air.
When the girl realized who it was, she heaved a sigh of relief.
”Sorry about that, I thought you were someone else,” the girl said as she let the whip fade into a mist of qi.
”What happened here,” Zhao Pan asked.
”It's... it's nothing. I must've tripped,” the girl replied as she began to stand back up.
However, after she stood up, they both noticed the puddle of urine under her.
”Tripped... right,” Zhao Pan sighed and shook her head.
Since the girl didn't want to say anything, then there was nothing else to do. Zhao Pan didn't care enough to get involved in her business, so she continued walking passed her.
