Chapter 766 - The Consequence Of Backing Out Is Death

The back of the school was a quiet and deserted place. At night, especially, it felt exceptionally stifled where there was no light source illuminating the area.

The windy night in addition to the eerie vibe of the darkness emphasized a sense of foreboding.

Luckily, there was a factory next to the back of the school, so there were lights coming from the factory outside of the fence in addition to the moonlight of the night.

It was thanks to these that the unnerving atmosphere here took a turn for the better.

Four to five minutes had passed since the break. Zhang Jian and others who had been waiting here were beginning to get impatient. After all, they only had a short ten-minute break and walking from their classroom to the back of the school then back to the classroom again took a total of four minutes.

Time was already tight but Zhang Shaofeng and Yun Jian were still nowhere to be seen.

“Zhang Jian, do you think Zhang Shaofeng will be too scared to come?” A guy next to Zhang Jian spoke up in silence.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

“No way. Zhang Shaofeng’s that cowardly? He’s Slashing God’s disciple though! How could he be so cowardly?” someone added instantly.

“Class is resuming soon. We’ve been waiting for two minutes already. F*ck, are they purposely making us wait here for nothing?”

...

Everyone had grumbles of their own.

Just when Zhang Jian was also at the end of his patience and the peak of his annoyance, someone among the group of anticipating audience cried, “Hey, guys, look! They’re here!”

Trailing their gazes, they saw Yun Jian, Zhang Shaofeng, and Chen Xinyi making their way to them.

Yun Jian walked in front leading the group. Her leisure pace looked like she was taking a walk.

The crowd who had been standing there in the wind waiting could not help gritting their teeth but no one dared criticize Yun Jian knowing that she was Slashing God from Team Monarch.

“Here? Let’s begin then,” Zhang Jian said and took off his jacket, revealing his thick brawny arms.

“There’s no hurry,” Yun Jian replied faintly.

She then turned to Zhang Shaofeng and told him right before everyone, “Remember the techniques I usually teach you. Strike fast and win within one technique. Battle fast and end it fast!”

The techniques she usually taught Zhang Shaofeng? What techniques were they?

Those who watched them were perplexed.

“Mn!” Zhang Shaofeng gave a hard nod, already understanding what Yun Jian meant.

Yun Jian’s intention in wanting him to fight Zhang Jian today was obvious. Not only did she want him to triumph over Zhang Jian, but it was also more crucial that he actually fought someone in real life. In Yun Jian’s words, it was only possible for one to improve through constant battles.

“I want to see victory. You’re not allowed to lose. Go,” Yun Jian said and urged.

A master who only wanted the disciple to win and not lose? Needless to say, the other students were baffled. What Yun Jian said was too deep for them to comprehend. Most of them thought that she was being too stern.

Someone who had that thought blurted it exactly, “Yun Jian, aren’t you being too harsh by only allowing Zhang Shaofeng to win? Isn’t this an unnecessary pressure on him?”

“If not?” Yun Jian arched a brow at the person and retorted.

Being put on the spot suddenly, the person went speechless.

“You guys are just dueling right now. Once you’re out in the society in the world, whatever you do could become your opponent’s chance of killing you! You guys say that I’m too stern for only wanting him to win, but have you guys thought about the fact that if I don’t ask for victory, he’ll choose to back down during a deadly battle.”

“And the consequence of backing down is death!”
