Ace Of Terrans

Chapter 334 Mission.

Shi Lang returned to the class with his students after the ruckus came to an end. Watching Shi Tao today, Shi Lang decided to hold a public lecture weekly. This idea was supported by a lot of teachers and the principal approved of it as well.

Shi Tao spend the rest of her time practicing her breathing matter and suddenly she thought about the reason behind this particular breathing. As she moved forward with her practice, she realized the slight change in her body. Compared to the normal breathing rhythm this one made her body warmer and improved her blood circulation.

She was in the class when she noticed this change and began to increase her pace. Shi Lang was guiding a student with his sword-wielding when he noticed this and said, “Tao, slow down, you will hurt yourself.”

His voice was as if a spear, that pierced through the shell of meditation and jolted Shi Tao awake. The girl furrowed her brows, seemingly displeased with the disturbance. She glared at Shi Lang, who walked over to her and with a faint smile said, “You silly girl, do you want to get hurt so badly?”

Shi Tao did not understand this and Shi Lang said, “Our body is delicate, it can only handle a little amount of stress, when you push it beyond the limits it will break down. The human body is different from a machine, you can only increase the capacity slowly, and one mistake can cause big damage that might be irreversible.”

His words enlightened the little girl and she nodded, Shi Lang patted her head and said, “Good girl, I will get you that chocolate you like in the evening, okay?”

Shi Tao smiled and nodded adorably. Shi Lang went back to his work and began to grind the students. The training picked up pace in the following days. The venue of the youth competition was set as Elton City. This place was known for its nightlife and the notorious underground fighting hubs.

Recently these hubs had become trouble for the police. The syndicate behind this organization has changed and the person was very good at avoiding detection. The reason these hubs became a pain was not only the illegal fights they organized but also the human trafficking that happened under the shadows.

The police were forced to enlist the help of the secret divisions but the enemy was so cunning that he managed to bypass the secret division. The whole syndicate stopped working for the past few months and waited for the secret division to retreat before they surfaced again. This time round they kept things low profile and thrived on the business.

Another reason that this syndicate was raking in money and power was how they hooked in some big names in the federation. They used all means necessary, stock manipulation, honey trapping, and even murders. The means they used were simple and terrifying.

Shi Lang did not know any of this till he received a call from the Commander of the Shadow Snare Special division. The call was made to report the situation so that Shi Lang could assign a better team to help them, however, the commander was shocked when Shi Lang said that he will be in the city for the youth competition as a teacher and he would look into this personally.

The commander told him that his best operative will be in the city to help him. Shi Lang accepted the offer and went out for a walk with Shi Tao after dinner. He let the girl ride his shoulder and he told her many stories. The girl was fascinated by it all and would ask him interesting questions.

Shi Lang would reply to all of them patiently. To be honest the rest of the students were envious of Shi Tao because when the teacher faced them, he was a monster they cursed in their hearts.

A month passed in a blink and the people got consent from their families. The status of Shi Lang’s class had undergone a striking change. Every one of them entered the third star level of cultivation and Shi Lang also had them all form teams of five and trained them all in a manner where they all developed their own unique way of thinking. This way of thinking would help them in situations when their unit commander was not in place.

The style of fighting could be tagged as chaos but when General Edwards watched the units perform in the simulation realm, he could not help but nod in appreciation. This group of students was capable of fighting on the private level of the army.

…

After a month the students all boarded the buses from the school and moved to Elton City. Shi Tao was going there with her grandparents and mother. Shi Lang had told Amelia about the mission he will overtake and during this time Shi Tao’s protection will be handed to her. After all, if he missed something and the enemy harmed Shi Tao, he might lose his cool completely.

He did not want to end up creating a massacre in the city. Shi Lang was going along with the students. Throughout the journey, he did not say anything and closed his eyes. The students also grabbed the chance to rest and they all sat silently.

Some of them were chatting with the communicators. A student asked, ‘Why is teacher Shi so silent all of a sudden?’

The other person replied, ‘He must be tired, in the past month I did not see me sleeping. He was literally on duty for a month, it is good that he can rest.’

Another guy nodded and said, ‘Indeed, he did not go home for our sake.’

…

After seven hours, they reached their destination. Elton Military Academy. The students were asked to stay in the hotels nearby the school as the dormitories were already filled with students. The competition was going to last for a week and during this time Shi Lang had to be quick and catch the mastermind behind all the ruckus in this city.

As he got down the bus, he met a guy from the past, Dacrx stood in the distance with a goofy smile on his face, and Shi Lang shook his head.
