"You-!"

Bang!

"Who said that Master didn't have disciple? His disciples are here!"

Zhan Jing looked around to see his three disciples rushing into the room. Their expression showed unconcealed fury that they directed to Mr. Jing. He was shocked. He had been certain that they wouldn't be able to return back soon with the task that he entrusted to them.

How come they were here?

Just a few minutes before, the three of them were listening carefully as Mr. Jing mocked their master. They came to understand that their Master was sent here as punishment based on what Mr. Jing said to him.

"Master have to get disciples to enter Bao Fu Organization to return back." Ye Jiao frowned. "Why did he hide us, then?"

Qi Huan didn't reply as his mind thought of their time back in Spring Island. He noticed how Qin Zheng and their master talked harshly and the weird aura around them. It seemed as if that young man had known Zhan Jing's condition from a long time ago. Besides, there was a strange look on their master's eyes ever since his meeting with Qin Zheng.

Could it be that he changed his mind midway because he met with Qin Zheng?

What did they talk with each other to change this man's mind?

"I don't care why, but I'm not going to let Master to be in trouble." Lu Wan snorted. He walked to the door with a murderous aura around him. "I don't care about that Bao Fu Organization or that annoying large man, but all I know is that Master needs help. He wants to return back, so I'll help him."

"If you get out, there's a chance that he'll try to bind you to the organization forever. With his strength as Eon Energy Master Rank 4, it's not that hard to bind someone as weak as you, Lu Wan," Qi Huan warned.

Ye Jiao also stepped to the door. "Even if we have to face a lot of problems, I don't mind. Without Master, I won't be here right now."

When she lost her mother, she didn't have anything else that could guide her in this harsh world. It was Zhan Jing who offered a hand to help. Even if he only helped her because of her talent and the fact that he required disciples, she didn't care. She only knew that he is her Master, so she would never leave him.

"Yes," Lu Wan nodded his head. "No matter what motives he had when he approached me in the first place, he's the one who helps me out of my predicament and trained me. He might only come because of an ill intent, but it didn't change the fact that he helped us and wanted the best for us now."

He wouldn't care for the past, but he knew that their master cared for them now. If not because of that, there would be no way Zhan Jing asked them to do that impossible mission and sent them away to Chen Kingdom Capital City. He must have wanted to keep them in the dark about this matter and let himself take the brunt.

That was all that mattered.

"Then, let's step forward!"

Bang!

"They're your disciples?" Mr. Jing's eyes narrowed. He could sense that these three must be at Eon Energy Master Rank 3. In addition, they looked extremely young…

Zhan Jing frowned. Before he could deny it, the three of them have kowtowed on the ground.

"Ai Jiao/ Shan Dian/ Yu Shui greets Master!"

Qi Huan raised his head. "We apologize for taking so long to clear the mission you entrust us, Master. Now we have returned."

Zhan Jing looked back expressionlessly. He wanted to steer them away from this organization and no longer forced them to enter because he knew what kind of muddy place this organization was. It would only bring pain and suffering should they follow the same path with him.

"You…."

"If you wish to participate, you should go ahead," Mr. Jing's face darkened. He could guess that Zhan Jing must have good luck to be able to recruit such good disciples. Damn it! He must take them away after the competition is over.

"I'll excuse myself first," Zhan Jing walked to the three of them and helped them to stand up. "Let's go down."

"Yes, Master."

"Yes!"

As they walked down, Ye Jiao peeked to the back as she could sense murderous intent from the large man. Her eyes narrowed in caution. Whatever that man tried to do, she would make sure that it didn't succeed.

Zhan Jing stopped when they were in the middle of the stair and enveloped the area with his Eon Energy to block sound from escaping outside. His expression was solemn.

"DO YOU REALIZE WHAT YOU HAVE DONE?"

The three of them quickly covered their ears as their master yelled to them. It was the first time they saw Zhan Jing truly angry. Before, he would just smile and force them to train like a madman.

"No, we don't," Qi Huan replied first. He looked back at his master with strong determination. "But we can't just let him mock you."

"He can mock me for all I care…"

"Besides, you have someone important waiting for you, Master," Ye Jiao interrupted. "We can't make her wait for long, right?"

She didn't know who was waiting for their master, but it must be someone important considering how Zhan Jing lost his composure when they mentioned 'her.' She wished the two of them could meet with each other again.

"Even if we have to step into this muddy water, I don't really care, Master. When I first accept your offer, I'm already ready for this possibility. I don't really have anything else aside from you and my fellow disciples," Lu Wan shrugged.

Zhan Jing looked at the three of them with a serious expression. He knew very well what would happen to them once they entered Bao Fu Organization. It would forever seal their path.

"If you…"

"Master, this is our decision," this time, it was Qi Huan who interrupted. He looked back at Zhan Jing with a serious expression.

"Please trust us!" Ye Jiao added.

Lu Wan also nodded. "We can do this, Master."

"You three…" Zhan Jing sighed, for he realized that there was nothing he could do to change their mind anymore. "You should be careful. Bao Fu Organization is not that easy to deal with."

"We know that, Master."

"Yes!"

"Let's head to the arena."

"Ok!"

Qi Huan stopped for a moment while the other two rushed forward. He looked back at their master, who was standing not far behind him. He smiled.

"We're no longer little kids, Master. You should trust us more."

"I know," Zhan Jing replied.

After he got the reply, Qi Huan ran after the other two. Zhan Jing still stood in the same place as he sighed to himself. He knew very well that a Master would not be able to control their disciple's life. They have their own fate. He could only show them the way for them to tread.

When he first met with them, they were all just children who had just stepped into the path of a martial artist. Now, they had reached rank 3 and would begin their real journey as Eon Energy Master.

He couldn't protect them forever.

They would leave him and entered the large world, facing the danger on their own.

'I won't be able to protect you after you leave this place, but while you're here, I won't let anyone harm you three.'

Zhan Jing turned around and returned back to the room. He was a failure as a master numerous times in the past. This time, he would try to become a better master worthy of that title.

Ye Jiao and the others arrived at the arena. Looking at the large number of participants before her, Ye Jiao was speechless. She didn't know that the Bao Fu Organization would be able to gather so many disciples. It seemed that the fame of this organization far surpassed what she thought.

"We have a lot of competitors."

"They're all coming from all over the place in the Four Kingdoms," Qi Huan explained from the back. "It's fairly normal to have this number considering that the organization is the largest in this kingdom."

"Right."

"I'm more surprised that the arena can fit so many people," Ye Jiao looked around. Her eyes were locked into the array pillar at the edge of the place. It must be an array that can influence the space too.

It was so amazing.

"Right," Lu Wan nodded in agreement. "I have to say that this place is extremely wonderful. I don't have to worry about other things when I fight against them."

"Try not to use poison."

"WHAT? Why?"

Ye Jiao grinned. "This is just the beginning. There are still a lot of weaker assassins that barely reach rank 2, are you sure that you want to use poison against them?"

"Wh-!"

"Oh, so I have an unconfident junior who would rely on poison against weaker disciples," Qi Huan arched his eyebrows and shook his head as if he disapproved of Lu Wan's action. "How shameful."

"Yes, so shameful."

"We need to talk to Master to increase his training again."

"Agree."

"Wait, you two! Damn it! Don't decide things on your own."
