No Match

As Tristin pass through the congested students, his eyes firm, Max and Mdu followed him behind looking nervous, as the whispers began around them.

"Oh he's dead; the Black Phoenix doesn't play around." One guy said as Tristin pass

"Still I have to hand it to him, he's fierce and courageous, if I were him, I would have ran and hide under my bed." The other guy said.

"Oh please, courage means shit when you are dead or crippled." One guy said rolling his eyes as he folds his arms. 

"Wow he's so handsome when his serious, I truly envy Lerato for acting fast." One girl said as she think about the picnic Lerato had with Tristin

"Lerato lost her car because of Tristin." The guy next to one girl said rolling his eyes.

"Who cares if I lost a car, I would definitely exchange mine to have a boyfriend who drives a Ferrari." One girl said her eyes glowing.

"Well she's about to be a widow in about few minutes." The guy said.

Tristin ignore their ramble and head straight to the center of crowd. As he walks to the center he realized that the center of this crowd is where he parked his car.

He clenched his hands and narrowed his eye as he looked a guy who was seating cross-legged on top of his Ferrari, Thomas wearing black Adidas tracksuits standing with his gang and other people who were wearing red tracksuits with a logo of a bird surrounded by black flames, they must be the Black Phoenix gang.

Tristin looked at Thomas with narrowed eyes. "The Ngobeni family's healer is really powerful, to be able to heal Thomas this quickly." He marveled in his thought, then looked at the guy who was seating on his car. "If there is a scratch or a dent, you dead." His voice cold as he clenches his hands in to a fist.

Before the guy on top of the Ferrari could respond, Sipho laugh out loud and Thomas and his gang followed suit. "Do you know who that is, I told you that this is not over remember." Sipho said strolling to Tristin.

"I don't care who that is, all I know is that, if there's a scratch or dent, he's dead and if there's none, ill break all his four limps." Tristin said, still looking at the guy who was on top of his car.

Hearing Tristin's words, everyone except Mdu and Max laughed out loud, looking at Tristin like an idiot.

"You idiot." Sipho said as stood face to face with Tristin. "That's the fifth general of the Black Phoenix gang, Sammy the azure dragon." Sipho said curling his lips smugly.

As soon as the words Sammy the azure dragon were heard, the crowd went nuts. "I never thought I'll meet the azure dragon of the Black Phoenix gang here, oh my god this is unbelievable." One guy said looking at the guy who was on top of the Ferrari.

"Oh god, I heard his handsome but I didn't know he would be this dashing and young too, he's about 22 years old right." One girl said with glowing eyes.

"I almost forgot this part of the city belongs to him, all five Black Phoenix generals have their own domain and this domain belongs to the azure dragon, Tristin is in big trouble now." The other guy said

The guy on top of the Ferrari smiled as he heard people talking about him, with such admiration and fear.

Just as the students were busy discussing the end of Tristin a loud slap rang across the parking lot. Pa! everyone followed the noise and saw Sipho laying down on his back, his noise bleeding and his mouth disfigured.

Tristin looked at Sipho who was lying of the pavement wearing his school uniform. "Sipho you've been quiet the whole day today at school I thought you were busy nursing Thomas back to life, I didn't know that you came to school." Tristin said after slapping Sipho to the ground.

Seeing this seen the student were stunned, no one expected Tristin to slap Sipho in front of the Black Phoenix gang. Sipho also didn't think he would be slap while Thomas and the Black Phoenix are backing him.

"How dare you slap me in front of the azure dragon, do you think the azure dragon is someone you can mess with…" Sipho said trying to use Sammy as a shield.

Tristin saw what he was trying to do, he gave him another slap on the other chick, which stunned Sipho and everyone. Tristin ignore their gaze and stunned look and walked to Thomas and his gang.

Seeing Tristin walking towards him, Thomas subconsciously took a step back because of fear but he remembered that the Black Phoenix is next to him he relaxed a bit.

Seeing Tristin on the move Max gritted his teeth and followed him while afraid. "Tristin we are in this together." He said his voice breaking. "I'm the one who drives Thomas's car thanks to Tristin; I can't let him down now." He thought as he fights through his fear.

Tristin didn't look back but gave a hum and a nod to Max.

"Is he really going to fight against Thomas and the Black Phoenix?" The onlookers wondered as they see Tristin who wasn't backing down.

The guy who was on top of the Ferrari jump down slowly, it looked like he was levitating as he landed smoothly in front of Tristin.

Wow did you see that, was he really levitating? The onlookers marvel.

The other 30 Black Phoenix members stood behind him Thomas also followed them.

Max clicked his tongue as soon as he sees Mbali hand in hand with Thomas. "Wasn't she trying to throw herself to Tristin in the morning?" He said to himself with a frown.

"Kid, let's make this easy okay, give Thomas his car back and give me the Ferrari then apologize to Thomas and let him break your legs." Sammy the azure dragon said as he looked at Tristin from toe to head. "This kid doesn't even have qi energy and he manage to beat Thomas, no his hiding it." He said to himself.

"If Thomas wants his car, he needs to bring a better car then challenge me to a duel and the same goes to you." Tristin said also scanning Sammy the Azure dragon. "He has open the sixth meridian channel Chiao and it's at 40% at the age of 22 he might be talented." He said to himself.

"Can he see my cultivation; no way he's too young to open the sixth or the seventh channel Dai." Sammy asked himself then said to Tristin; "kid the time for games is over we don't play…" just as he was about to finish Tristin threw a punch hard without qi energy at Sammy's gut but Sammy blocked it only using one hand.

Seeing this everyone knew that Tristin was not strong enough to fight against Sammy the azure dragon. Max also felt his body steaming, sweats drops filled his face. "We are dead this time." He murmured

"Kid you are an impatient one aren't you, I guess you want it the hard way then. Boys give him a good one." Sammy said as he let go of Tristin's arm and walked back.

As soon as the Black Phoenix heard the order they rushed to Tristin. Thomas and Mbali were all smiles, thinking this would be the end of Tristin.

Just before they arrive at Tristin a female voice sounded in the sky. "I like to see who dares try to harm Tristin." As everyone looked up, Lerato landed hard in front of Tristin. "Who wants him has to go through me." She said her voice cold.

Seeing Lerato showing up Max jumped up and down. "We are saved." He murmured.

"Wow she came to protect her boyfriend, she does love him." Whispers began.

"To me it looks like Tristin is hiding behind Lerato." One guy said.

"Lerato if you think because you are here we will stop, you must be mistaken, even if the Black Phoenix hurt you, my father will take care of it." Thomas said in a cold voice as he looked at Lerato with narrowed eyes.

"Thomas did you forget my father is way stronger than your father." Lerato reminded.

"He might be stronger but he is not the head of the family, my father is and this is also concern the Ngobeni family even grandpa won't help you if you side with an outsider." Thomas said without backing down.

When they left for this operation, Thomas's father reassured Thomas that even if Lerato jumps in, he mustn't back down; he will take care of it.

The gang also didn't know what to do at this moment; they know that Lerato's father is just few steps away from matching their leader strength.

"Lerato, I got this, don't interfere." Tristin said as he walked to Lerato

"Tristin if you are worried about causing trouble for me, you don't have to worry about that, I'll be fine" Lerato said looking at Tristin, her eyebrows raised

"I can't let you fight for me and besides this band of rouges won't be able to do anything to me." Tristin said with a smile, placing his hand on her shoulders.

"You sure?" Lerato asked her voice low.

"Why would I lie to you?" Tristin said as he kissed her forehead then looked her in the eyes with a smile. "Now pay attention as I break their limps one by one." He said as he walked away from Lerato

Tristin didn't know that at the top of the faculty blog, Buhle was watching him kissing Lerato.

"This guy is full of himself, does he really think he can take on the Black Phoenix by himself." Students murmured when they see Tristin refusing Lerato's help

Max also looked at Tristin in disbelieve. Lerato looked at him with narrowed eyes. "If it's gets bad for him ill step in." she said to herself.

"You have more ball than I thought." Sammy said standing at the back of the group folding his arms

"You stay right there, I'll be done in a second here, I still need to break your limps for seating on top of my car." Tristin said looking at more than 30 Black Phoenix members in front of him. 

The members of the Black Phoenix and Thomas laughed; Sammy looked at Tristin with narrowed eye. "Does he really think he's a match for me just because he beat Thomas?" He asked himself.

Tristin ignore them and said. "Lerato, remember what I said about qi energy manipulation?" He asked without looking back.

"Yes." Lerato said looking at Tristin's back.

Tristin took a deep breath as he raised his left hand a bit. "Now pay attention to my qi energy." He said to Lerato.

Pa! the first meridian channel Ren opened.

Pa! the second Du opened

The third Chong opened

The forth Dan open. This will be enough to deal with everyone here. Tristin said to himself as he feels the qi energy circulating across all his acupoints.

Lerato looked closer as she narrowed her eyes. "He's as strong as I am, no all his meridian are fully open, all 100%." She marveled as she wondered; "if all four are fully open does that mean he has even open the fifth or maybe even more."

No wonder he's this cocky, he has open four channels at such a young age. Sammy said to himself then continued. "Still it's not enough, more than ten of my guys have open five meridian and I have open the sixth meridian."

Feeling Tristin's qi energy the students marvel as they took a few step back, not wanting to be hurt like the more than 40 onlookers yesterday.

"What are you waiting for? beat this kid up, he's still no match for all of you." Sammy the azure dragon shouted.

The Black Phoenix gang all woke up and charged at Tristin

Bang, a loud sound echoed around the parking lot as if a heavy beam fell from the top floor to the ground, as dust and debris scattered around.
