Lena Quest...

While walking out of the class, Lena Lee happened to hear something crashing.

Coming back inside the classroom, she looked at Xu Fen that seen to be snickering at Long and Chen. Where a sip of blood was flowing out of Chen's lips.

'I see! You are now in the 4th layer, that energy releasement is the sign of someone breaking through the 4th layer of the student realm.'

Clenching his trembling hand, Chen twisted his joint with a crunch.

He was able to stop the trembling which someone with little mastery over basic fist art is able to do. Where Chen Yu had already mastered it over the middle realm, so it did not come as a surprise that he is able to fix that arm.

But in the eyes of Lena and Long, Chen's mastery and adaptability were very natural and terrifying.

Given no one would have 100% confidence in doing something, not to say doing something related to his own wrist.

'Don't be an idiot! something like that is not what you should do in around the safe area, let the professional do something like that. Also, this kind of usage of basic fist art should be done in case of an emergency idiot.'

Long smiled at Chen's non-hesitant mind and terrifying mental strength to pull it off.

Where Lena looked at Chen, who happened to look at her.

With an apologetic gaze, she bows a little to him, while she glares at Xu Fen. He turned to look at her when he noticed Chen's action of looking behind him.

Xu Fen 'humped!' while walking away, where Long gaze never left him until he left the class. Even though! Long had all it take to beat that bastard to death, without any effort.

He knew that Chen Yu would be able to do something about it, while he has no intention of stealing Chen's prey.

Not to say, due to that idiot temper he was noticing that Lena Lee was getting closer, to his brother though just for an apology.

But it was still a good thing for him, after all, he had an inkling that a person like Chen Yu would never end up being a commoner.

With such a mentality, hard work, and most of all his will is something even he lacks behind him.

'Chen shall we go, now that's the idiot has gone. We shall go for our practical class too.' When Chen nodded as they walked toward the gate. Where Lena was still waiting for them, on which Long excused.

'Oh right! I had to give this form to the teacher right...'

With that he dashed off, leaving Chen and Lena stunned as they looked at his retreating figure. Where Chen was thinking inside his mind 'What the hell! Is that guy thinking and what with the lame excuse.' as he looked at Lena who just smiled at the act and spoke to him in a tiny voice.

'So! Umm! Sorry for that Chen... That idiot is always like that, I hope you can forgive him. I will make sure that he will not bother you from now on. It might be because I had been talking with you, so he is acting rudely to you like this.'

With those words, she turned around and walked while Chen walked by her side. Even though! Chen hated that bastard he has to give, he was still strong and all.

'It is alright! Though, this time he again made a huge gap in the strength between us. While it will take quite some time to fill in that gap. So, I was thinking of how to increase the speed of my cultivation again. It is not that bad too right!'

Chen did not speak it out, he simply put out the factor that he still wanted to climb on him as a stepping stone.

Where Lena's eyes sparkled with fighting spirit too, given why would she not. A boy with no origin or family was this ignited, she who get best technique and resource.

Did not have anything which make her grow rapidly in a short period, it was just her technical mastery that can now make more gaps between them.

Still, as long as Chen Yu acquire something, his growth will boost up to catch up to them.

'Hmm! I will be waiting for it, Chen. Bye then! See you at the classes.' As Chen, at Lena greenish-black hair's that was swirling back and fro around her devilish figure.

He was always reminded at the last that, the girl he was just challenging was one of the most beautiful in the middle school.

'Affection Target Acquired.'

'Target Name: Lena.'

'Affection Level Target Lena: (10/100) Friendship.'

Looking at the intro, Chen felt a little better given affection level did not start from zero. Plus he also felt a little bitter, thinking how she did not have any extra thought.

When he found that there was a quest, which appeared in his quest tab. That has appeared in front of him, while he also saw Long standing at the edge of the class, as he was smiling at him.

Walking toward him the first thing his friend asked was 'So, how did it go bro, it was a masterful retreat right.'

Looking at his best friend who was being a busy body a minute ago, he felt like strangling him to death.

'Yeah! That was indeed masterful, it definitely made both Lena and me quite awkward. When you knew that she has no interest in me, how can you do something like that.'

Chen grabbed the bastard's neck into a lock, as he was trying to break his neck. Though! Long cultivation he knew that he would not be able to do that.

'Target's birthday is coming yesterday: Congratulate your friend at midnight.'

'Reward of the first side quest: 3 Quarry solving talisman.'

Looking at the quest and the reward, which was something he did not any idea how to use. Chen Yu still decided to give it a try, though calling her in mid-night is a little awkward too.

So, he was thinking of doing something before it, but he did not have that confidence so he just forgot about it.

As he walked inside the class, where he was greeted by a new instructor. The old man looked in his sixties and had a tiny beard on his chin.

Along with the small slit eyes, he was observing every student.

Still, his gaze was making everyone in the class, feel a little stifle about it.

'Come inside both of you. There is no need to be afraid, also both of you can help with the practice along with that girl who came earlier.'

The old man spoke, while Chen and Long nodded their head, after all, it was going to be a great experience being directly instructed like that.

Also, Chen looked at Lena, who was also standing beside the old man with a smile. When Chen remembered about the quest, he felt a little ashamed and looked around.

Though! In Lena's eyes, his action meant something else, as she turned to look at Xu Fen.

Who was snickering at Chen with a gloating smile for another reason?
