"Hey, you!" A student yelled at the moving Rexford. It was promptly ignored. "Damn it, new kid!"
The rash, rude, dumbass practically ran to grab him. Unfortunately, his tone and the sound caused Rexford to believe he was getting attacked.
"What the hell do you want?" Rexford grabbed the rude little bastard's arm and forcefully twisted back. The grip was increasing by the second. "I do not know why you thought it good to assault me in public, but I will make you regret it."
A few students stopped in the hall. Watching everything take place with feveish eyes.
"Let go! I am Ji Xingyu!" His name didn't carry any weight to Rexford. "I am with the sports commissary! Chang Wen.. the monitor was looking for you! Stop!" A tight hold helped instill fear.
"I don't care." Rexford let the teen go with a warning look. "The next time you assault me, I will make sure you can not do it again." He walked off with a few students looking at Ji Xingyu in pity. The bruise on his arm was pretty bad. "Unlike the student you assholes jumped and leg that you broke... I will defend myself."
Making it to the roof, Rexford sat down criss-cross and started to cultivate. The energy around the school wasn't bad in the least but from what he could tell, it was stale from no activity.
Either the students were just that pitiful spiritually or something else was amiss. No matter to him in the end since it was a pit stop.
Internally, he communicated with the miniature version of him. Gold and Black qi strands left from it into the silhouettes of the Wei clan members as well as Biao. Crushing a set of pills for use, Rexford felt the change instantly.
"I can feel my Foundation Establishment growing stronger. With them helping for the support for my Foundation less work on creating support on my end. The more they learn, the more my Foundation strengthens. It is best I establish a type of Profound Connection for them now." With a wave of the hand, qi squeezed down from the Black Gold Vortex. Just a single drop that separated and entered each of the Agent Silhouettes. "The rest is on them."
The External Strength Realm acted as a type of Foundation Establishment Realm for them. With enough tweaks, it acted as the Qi Condensation Realm for them as well.
All but Biao and Wei Ziqing would learn this method. With the other two experimentings under Rexford's guidance. It was the best way to learn all sorts of things for the future.
Small clear glowing light appeared in the Agents. Just a flicker before disspating. It would take a lot more to get them set up with this method. But no real matter since time was on his side regarding this.
.
Later in class-
.
The teacher only gave Rexford a glance. Having heard about the hall situation was not enough to speak with him about it. Since he was not in the wrong. But during the break, she found out that his connections also extended not just to the Wei family, but possibly the Wang Family.
"There is Taekwondo class this afternoon. If you want to take part.." The teacher strutted across the classroom. Damn near like a runway model. "Hand in clothing fees and lesson fees if you are going. If not, you are dismissed and free to leave."
A few of the students looked at Rexford who was already on his phone checking something. He was looking at an earthquake in South Korea.
Racking his brain for information nothing pooped of that happening in the series but it something to that effect did happen in his actual life.
A student thought it was a good idea to get in front of him.
"Hey, don't leave dude." Ji Xingyu gave him an evil look. Apparently, he decided to grow a pair of balls and mess with Rexford. Whether it was from shame or someone backing him, it would end the same. "Someone wants to talk with you."
"Right, well my time is precious. So if they can set an appointment or drop some cash I will entertain them." Rexford scowled and step to the side. Ji Xingyu was not through with him however. "Oi, teacher," He called over his shoulder. The woman looked over instantly. "This idiot is harassing me, either you handle it or I will."
"I understand you are all young and testosterone is at play, but remain civil in my classroom." The teacher was not wanting to get involved considering Ji Xingyu's position.
"Since it is about money, fine." Chang Wen walked over trying to act like she was doing him a favor. "How much is it gonna take?"
"How about.. 12,000 yuan." Rexford said. "Don't worry about the clothing fees, I have clothes for it. But that is the price for my time right now as well as you need to pay the lesson fee."
"Tch.. fine!" Chang Wen sucked her teeth annoyed. Her thoughts on seeing him suffer the only thing that made this worth it. 'Mengmeng is gonna pay some of this if I have anything to say about it."
"Useless teacher with no real authority, good thing you have your looks and brian." Rexford said loud enough for the teacher to here as well as the students. "Send me the money now, I don't trust someone like you to keep your word." Holding his phone up with an app open, Chang Wen reluctantly sent the money over.
To many students were watching for her not to do it.
.
Gym-
.
The Gym for the Taekwondo group was pretty impressive. Along the same size and commitment was put in as the one for the Basketball gym. The care for the sports team was very apparent.
Able to have several different classes attend at once was also a big help.
Rexford was wearing the military prepared zhì-fú that he competed with before. It was very comfortable after all and had the words Ansatsuken on the back along the shoulders. Black with gold highlights to match his eyes.
"Woah.. I swear I have seen that before!" A student said. He had a family member that showed a video of Rexford's closed-door martial test. But the quality was pretty bad around the face.
"That looks pretty real." Jiang Tanqiu grabbed the sleeves. It was not cheap material he learned. "How long have you practice martial arts?"
"I have been fighting since I was a kid. Nothing more than a street fighter really." Rexford grinned.
"So that black belt.."
"It is earned. In fact, the second time I had to earn it actually." Rexford was about to say more but was interrupted.
"Well, the Taekwondo at the school is famous. So whatever your martial art is, I am sure it could benefit from the class." The pride for his school was one thing but the way he spoke was another. "The coach has won the second place prize in a national game. He is very competent."
"That is nice."
"Ji Xingyu is not the problem though.. those behind him are." Jian Tanqiu thought he was being helpful.
The teacher came in and did a small greeting. The students bowed except Rexford. This was just a business transaction after all to him.
Si Yingxia spared with a few students as a warm-up. The girls and a few of the guys cheering for him. Ji Xinghu's arm was feeling better so seeing his boss Si Yingxia give a look, he moved on to get things started.
"Coach, we had someone insult us early today. I need to settle things with him."
"DO not take it to far." The coach understood well enough. It was his reputation on the line as well.
"Hehe, I will weaken myself to the lowest possible level that I can. You are just a blue belt, bad form to bully you with the rule set up and all that." Rexford walked over placing his hands behind his back and interlocking them. "I will use.. just my left foot. I can't go lower than that."
"Before I was caught off guard, I will show you how weak you really are!" Ji Xingyu moved forward with sloppy form. He tried a high kick despite his opponent telling him he would only use his left leg.
*Whack!* Rexford's left leg came around and kick the others out. Ji Xingyu fell forward a little and was about to catch himself when another kick came fast.
"Nuh uh," Rexford was bored already and wanted to go. He caught the teen around the neck behind his knee. Giving a very painful squeeze cutting off the airflow. ".. give up or go to possible sleep."
It was possible because Rexford might exert to much force and kill him.
"Gurk!" Ji Xingyu struggled unable to get free for a few seconds. The pressure on his throat was immense and he was getting really dizzy. 'I..can't breathe!' His thought went back to what Rexford said before in the hall. 'He won't kill me in front of all these people will he!?'
"He surrenders!" The coach shouted. He was not expecting this at all. Releasing his grip, Rexford dropped the teen who barely moved. "Get the nurse!" Squatting down he could tell the boy would be alright physically after resting. But mentally, that was another matter.
"We are all classmates.."
"Un uh, shut up with that bullshit dumbass." Rexford cut him off. "The basketball team broke one person's leg and nothing was done. You are friends with a bunch of them and I haven't heard anything about you doing something about that. So do not pretend you have camaraderie. Besides..."
Rexford walked over to him with a challenging look.
"Ji Xingyu is weak and pathetic.. just like you. In fact, I got it, I will use only two punches to take you out, how about it weakling?" Rexford had a smile from ear to ear. His desire for violence was building up. And hurting teenagers who thought they were adults was so satisfying to him. "How about we have some fun?"
"Si Yingxia!" Chang Wen shouted concerned. Even she was having second thoughts about this. "I think it best you calm down." He raised his hand silencing the girl. 'You dumbass, trying to help you!' She was getting frustrated as the moments past.
"Man I do not even like her and I have to agree." Rexford gave Chang Wen a side look once over. It was then he rembered something. "Oh, yeah she is in love with you fangirl style. She doesn't know how pathetic you are and that you only have an obsession with Xu Rongfei."
A few of the students couldn't help the smiles on their faces. One from seeing Chang Wen get embarrassed by Si Yingxia's dismissal. Second hearing the bastard get outed, these were mostly the ones who wanted Xu Rongfei for themselves.
"Since you have such confidence, fight me then!"
*Fwip!* A punch faster than they could see went out. A straight jab that shattered the young teen's pride and jaw. He fell to the ground unbelieving.
"Haaa, just such a disappointment." Rexford walked over while the others watched on slackjawed. "Now for the second hit."
"Stop!" Chang Wen stepped over protectively in the way. "You won, you are better than him! Don't!"
"Woah, that is just wow." Rexford calmed down taking a step back. "I am very impressed you are willing to put yourself in danger for someone like him. Really impressed actually now that I think about it. I could have just as easily delivered a kick to injure. Bravo."
"That is the end of the match." The teacher announced. Seeing the calm interactions of Rexford unnerved him. "Not much you can learn in my class.. I will make sure proper credit is received." He was not wanting anything to ever do with this student again.
"Very well." Rexford shrugged walking off. "If you want your student to approve, put him in real fights, not in the shackled competition fights. Both his potential is wasted as well as most of those in this class. Martial Arts is for violence, not.. this contest stuff."
