The Rescue

Gui Shan and Tang Tang continued with their discussion. "Are you aware that the entrance exam into the Guiyi academy is Five days from now?" Tang Tang asked.

"No! I wasn't aware", Gui Shan replied. The Guiyi academy is one of the best academy in the whole of the Wushu kingdom, it is located in Nirong elites, royal relatives and highly placed people fight their way into it. For one to be admitted into the Guiyi academy, one must pass all the tests and qualfy to enter.

Tang Tang told Gui Shan that it would take a day journey to get there and he has informed his parents and they are okay with it. He told Gui Shan to inform his parents on getting home and hope for a positive reply.

They both decided to go to the closeby market and buy some snacks. They both walked along their way merrily as they chatted along their path to the market.

Getting close to the market, something amazing happened, on a street corner, they saw a lady being carassed and molested by three boys against her wish, she was fighting her way out, but being weak they prevailed against her.

Gui Shan seeing this could not hold himself, out of pity, he boldly walked to the boys and asked them to stop molesting the lady. They laughed him to scorn and asked if they didn't stop what would a weakling like him do.

Although, Gui Shan appeared like an ordinary teen, he has the strength of six men put together. He warned them again for the second time, but the laughed at him. Since they were well built physically, they thought Gui Shan was a trash they can easily do away with.

The first boy came out to attack Gui Shan but Gui Shan had good reaction time. He evaded all the attacks and knocked the first one down with a serious injury. The second one came and Gui Shan defeated him and finally dealt with all three of them without a scratch, they all leaped as they ran away.

Tang Tang clapped in amazement and said, "I never knew you this strong and good in physical combat, you dealt with this three boys effortlessly, I'm amazed", "if I could have such strength", Tang Tang said.

The lady appreciated Gui Shan and told him she would never forget his kindness and the way she was rescued. "Thank you for saving my life", the lady said.

After the lady left, Gui Shan was surprised that he had that much strength and wondered how he defeated a gang of three boys, "Pls let what just happened today be between us", Gui Shan said. "Your secret is safe with me", Tang Tang replied still caught in the surprise.

They both headed towards the market and bought some snacks, enjoyed themselves and base each other farewell. Gui Shan and Tang Tang went their separate path and headed home.

Later that evening, Gui Shan told his parents that he is interested in enrolling for the Guiyi academy entrance examinations, the parents told Gui Shan that they agreed with it, in as much as it makes him happy.

Gui Shan ate dinner, went to his room and thought about the events that happened that very day, he was amazed by the outcome of things in his life, he aspired for that day to come soon.
