Bullying Gone Wrong

Ye Shie went to the counter, and greeted receptionist

"Hello, sir"

The male receptionist looked towards the source of the voice, after raising his eyebrows he frowned thinking 'What is this country boy looking here? Is he lost?' after staring for a bit he nodded and said "Hello, how can I help you?"

"Can I apply to be a Formation Master?" Ye Shie politely asked.

'A Formation Master?! So he's one of those, huh' his eyes calmed down and he said blandly "Pay 100 gold coins, then fill up this sheet"

Hearing the receptionist said 100 gold coins, Ye Shie stared blankly. He face palmed himself thinking 'Oh yeah! I never asked for money' he sighed and contemplated for a bit.

He remembered Scholar Li's words about the Noble Badge "One of it's benefits, is that presenting this badge in any guild makes registering for free" , then he picked up something in his pocket, and showed it to the receptionist saying "Sir? Will this suffice?"

Seeing the Bronze Nobles' Badge in Ye Shie's with the Xiao Character on it, the receptionist trembled for a bit, then he said flatteringly "Yes Young Master Xiao, It's enough-It's enough"

Ye Shie was amazed at the receptionist's rapid change in attitude, he sadly smiled thinking 'Power really is everything huh' he sighed again, pick up the sheet and answered the information within.

Registering on becoming a Formation Master is easy, not only on the Formation Guilds, Even all the other Guilds, Registering is like this. But there is a saying "Many went and few were chosen". The previous attitude of the receptionist was reasonable, for like in many guilds, Many registered but very few passed the examinations or requirements on being a Rank 1 Formation Masters, or any other Occupation.

After Ye Shie passed the paper, the receptionist looked at the paper for a while, and seeing his name and age. The receptionist stared in confusion but in the next moment after seeing his age, his eyes looked at Ye Shie in pity thinking 'Poor kid.' He sighed.

The receptionist, gave Ye Shie a Key, and a Book with the title "The Basics of Formations" then he looked at Ye Shie saying "Young Master Shie, This key is the key to the library over there" pointing at the door in the distant "and the rules and regulations is on that book, along with what to do next, and the map of this place. From now on, you are considered as a Formation Trainee" Then he smiled "Goodluck! Young Master" and bowed lightly.

Ye Shie felt a tingling sensation in his heart when he heard the receptionist called him "Young Master Shie" 'it felt weird and at the same time felt good. Hahahahaha!' then he happily went to the library.

After opening the door, the first thing he noticed was that the Library's space. 'It seems much more bigger compared to the tower? I wonder how it fits?'

The Library has 5 floors, the first is for Rank 1, the 2nd floor for Rank 2 and so on, until Rank 5.

Ye Shie looked around in amazement with his eyes sparkling at the vast library that's filled with books and shelves, with comfy chairs and tables scattered all around. Although the library was silent, a hubbub of hushes and conversations still rang out. And in comparison, the library is filled with more people than the outside Lobby.

After picking a seat, Ye Shie opened the book he was carrying when, a 15 years old looking youth walked towards him.

Seeing Ye Shie sitting down, He hurriedly walked towards him glaring he said coldly "Brat! That spot is mine! Go find another place or else!"

Ye Shie looked at the him in confusion, then he looked around and noticing the empty chairs and tables he frowned 'Does he love this spot so much?' Sighing Ye Shie stood up and apologized "I'm sorry, I didn't know that you love this spot so much"

Then Ye Shie walked towards an empty chair with no one around wondering 'I wonder why he loved that spot so much? Nah~ Let's not dwell on something unimportant'

The Young Man, seeing Ye Shie apologize and went away, was perplexed. Due to Ye Shie's voice so loud, his friends in the distant table giggle and laughed at the him, he mumbled angrily "Good Kid!" then he looked towards Ye Shie, then he began to walked towards him again.

"Brat! I decided! This spot is mine too!"

Now it was Ye Shie's time to be shocked and perplexed "You Love this spot too!?" mumbling he said "How can one sit on two chairs at the same time? Is that even possible?!" Ye Shie didn't noticed that all the people on the 1st floor were looking at him and were silent.

Upon hearing his questions and mumbles most of them forcefully clenched their teeth suppressing their laughter, while some just continued reading.

The exception was the young man's group friend in the distance who are laughing their hearts out withholding nothing back.

The young man, hearing Ye Shie's questions and mumbling gritted his teeth in anger, with his face flushed he forcefully nodded and continued glaring at Ye Shie.

Ye Shie once again stood up, and apologized "I'm sorry once again, I didn't know you love chairs so much" bowing lightly he looked again for another empty chair, finding one he began walking towards him.

The Young Man stood there, speechless. Hearing the crowd's stiffed laughter, he glared at them, making them silent. Then he looked at Ye Shie and he angrily whispered "You!". But when the young man looked at his laughing friends in the distance, his face flushed. He frowned while sighing.

But he continued to looked at Ye Shie in the distance, gritting his teeth he thought 'Just you wait you brat! I'll get my revenge on you!' He scoffed and turned around heading towards his laughing friends.

This Young Man Name was Zhao Zhun, the young Master of the Zhao Clan. His father recently had a breakthrough in his cultivation base, which made the silent and meek Zhao Clan to behave more haughtily these days.

Zhao Zhun, because of his egoistic and dominant behavior, would always seek opportunity to bully the weak, and with his background, many would remain silent and endure his oppression. The minority who fought back, disappeared and since then, Zhao Zhun's infamy in the Xiao City flourished.

At first, all the people in the library looked at pity towards Zhao Zhun's new victim, Ye Shie . But upon hearing and seeing the events that transpired, the stiffed feeling and suppressed anger in their chest, vanished, and was replaced by delight at seeing Zhao Zhun slapping himself in public.

Ye Shie who had no clue on what happened finally found a spot to sit down.

He opened the book and began reading it in delight.
