"I challenge you to step onto the stage and fight me, Lu Shang," Mo Shen said to Lu Shang, who was the same with him in the training hall.
Mo Shen was one of the powerful junior cultivators in the Glosom Sect battalion."I'm sorry, Mo Shen, but I can't fight you today; I am tired for today; tomorrow we are going to spar," reply Lu Shang, who was just about to leave the junior cultivator martial arts training hall."I know you are afraid to fight with me because you are a fool, always giving excuses to run away from fights. Bastard!" yell Mo Shen mockingly, trying to get Lu Shang to fight him because Lu Shang was the weakest of all the young cultivators in the junior academy."Hahaha, we are going to be seeing an interesting show before the end of the day.""With the strength of Mo Shen now, I think Lu Shang is going to be defeated in 10 moves.""I don't know why we have such a frightened person who is afraid to fight.""I even heard that Mo Shen just started learning a new skill named 'windflame fist art.' ""I also heard of that, but I don't know if it's true. I can wait to watch this interesting scene in front of me.""It going to be fantastic to see this new skill of Mo Shen.""Lu shang is such a trashy and useless boy," different people who were in the training hall laughed and mocked Lu Shang not putting the fact that Mo Shen was stronger than him."Mo Shen is a shameless person, always beating up the weak instead of challenging the strong," said a girl whose hair was shiny red making her figure attractive to the eyes. She was also one of the best young cultivators in the junior academy so she wasn't afraid to offend Mo Shen, who only know how to bully those below him in strength.Mo Shen turned to look at the person who dared to say such a word to him, only to discover that it was also one of the strongest in the junior academy. He couldn't bring himself to offend such a person or else it was going to be great trouble for him.Mo Shen spoke out of his thoughts with disdain. "You guys underestimate me very much; I am going to finish him under 3 or 5 moves.""Unbelievable, how can he defeat Lu Shang in four moves?" "Should I call this arrogance or what?" exclaimed a boy at the very back of the crowd."Lu Shang, don't be a fool. Step forward onto the battle arena and fight me, or else don't blame for beating till you turn unconscious." Mo Shen said out of anger after hearing the boy's words, he hates when people look down on him.At this moment, Mo Shen was furious and within his mind, he was trying to hold back the urge to dive Lu Shang and start beating him till he was satisfied."Please, Mo Shen, I am tired for today," Lu Shang plead with sad expression on his face."No way, don't bullshit me! Then you have two choice" "One is summon the courage and fight me, then I'll go easy on you and the second choice, you are going to be giving me your monthly allowance money?" Mo Shen looked at Lu Shang with disdain shining within his eyes as gave the conditions.Hearing the statement of Mo Shen, Lu Shang couldn't help but curse him in his mind. 'Shameless'"OK, I better choose to fight you, how do you expect me to cope without my monthly allowance?" Lu Shang, who was sad and angry at himself for not being strong enough to protect himself from his mates, also spoke up. This time is tone was filled with a bit of courage as he stare straight at Mo Shen in his eyesCRACK! CRACK!Mo shen crack his knuckles, ready to destroy the face of Lu Shang with punch with an evil smile on his face."That is good of you but also bad for you." "Get ready to experience painful moment of your life," smirk Mo Shen.Lu Shang step into the battle arena with a bold face, and Mu Shen immediately punched forward with his two hands toward Lu shang, which made Lu Shang to fly out of the arena and crush at the nearby wall due to the impact of the punch he received from Mo Shen.THUD!Lu Shang landed heavily on the floor.Ahhhh! He groan in pain. He was caught off guard by that punch."Why are you too weak?" "Just a punch and you are already on the floor, too weak" Mo Shen, who was overjoyed over his new skill, shouted."Did you just see that?" "He defeated Lu Shang out of the battle arena in just one punch.""Such a powerful skill.""I think that because he planned such a sneak attack on Lu Shang, I don't believe that his skill will be so powerful to launch such a strong attack," discussed the young disciples in the sect academy.Having stayed at the Glossom Sect Academy for almost 2 years, Lu Shang had been bullied and humiliated countless times by the strong, so he had already learned to endure the pain."You are the biggest fool I have ever seen, Just because you are strong, you are going around bullying the weak and more shameless to sneak attack at me," exclaimed Lu Shang with a bit of anger in his voice as he struggled to get up.Lu Shang's face was expressionless when he spoke the words out of his mouth without fear until he realized the words that came out of his mouth."Hmmm I see, Brave Lu Shang. I was planning on going easy on you, but look like you want it the hard way." Mo Shen snickered with red-blooded eyes and cunning feelings.Lu's Shang heart sped up the more, and he thought to himself, 'This bastard is not going to let me rest a bit, always oppressing me all the time, albeit I don't blame him after all, he is strong enough to protect himself against his mate unlike me, who is humiliated countless times.'"Please, senior Mo Shen, leave Lu Shang," the crying and worried voice of a girl among the crowd ranged out, she was putting on a black outfit with her name Lu Xun, who was also from the same Lu clan as Lu Shang.Lu Xun who was among the crowd, watch as Lu Shang was humiliated, passing through pain. She couldn't bear it within her but at the same time couldn't do anything about it and only clenched her hands in rage that was silently building up in her.In the thought of Lu Shang, 'This fight cannot be avoided.' his face was covered with wariness."I will give you one condition before I leave you, and that condition is that you will be my errand boy for the week." Mo Shen spat out emotionlessly."And what if I don't want to be your errand boy?""Then you will have to face my wrath.""I can't just lose my honor by becoming your errand boy," said Lu Shang boldly, without any fear in his eyes again.If Lu Shang agreed to become his errand boy, it was going to tarnish his name and people will start to look at him with disgust in their eyes which was the worst situation he would ever get himself into."You are getting bold." Mo Shen jumped onto the battlefield....Lu Shang and Mo Shen could be seen on the fighting field staring at each other with pure hatred playing in their eyes.More people were packing into the hall to see the fight between the two people."Let the fight begin.".....Meanwhile, in a secret hall in the Glossom sect battalion, the upper echelons were holding a secret discussion concerning the matter of the sect."We can only bring out the best potential in them if we give them this information, which will make them focus fully on cultivation," suggested the sect leader, who was talking from a dark corner.The sect leader was a middle-aged man but with a young body because, in the world of cultivation, even an old person who is 100 years old will still look young as long his or her cultivation rank is high."But that will also rush their cultivation and make it unstable, and that is going to cause a very big harm to them in the future," an Elder with white hair and a beard was trying to convince the sect leader and the elders present at the meeting; he was named Elder Su."Some of our young cultivators depend on their seniors for protection, and that is making them not fully focus on cultivating. Some are lazy bunch of cultivators!" responded another elder angrily."That's true, and that is the reason why I came up with such an idea," the sect leader said after thinking for some minutes."Tell everyone to gather at the hall, and everyone must be present there," the sect leader told a guard who was at the door."I will deliver your message," responded the guard who hurriedly walked away to deliver this message to every part of the sect.Expand

THE UNFORSEEN DOMINANCE OF ZACH MARLOW ~184~
Months passed, and Barbara’s birthday arrived. That evening, Zach threw a grand surprise party on the wide green lawns of his Villa, fairy lights twinkling like stars strung across the earth.Barbara gasped when she stepped into the lawn, her hand flying to her lips as dozens of voices shouted, “Surprise!” She turned sharply toward Athena, narrowing her eyes playfully.“You knew about this, didn’t you?” she accused.Athena only laughed and pulled her into a hug. “I didn’t want to ruin the surprise by dropping hints earlier!”Barbara chuckled softly, still overwhelmed. “Thanks, Aunt… this is a lot,” she said warmly before her gaze found Zach.Walking up to him, she wrapped her arms around his neck. “You did all this?”“For you,” he whispered, his lips grazing her ear.Later into the night, Zach led Barbara to the center of the lawn, where the lights dimmed, and soft music began to play. He took her hands, his thumb brushing her knuckles tenderly.“The last six months,” he began, his vo

Zach’s entire world seemed to still.“My… what?” he choked, his voice almost inaudible.Athena’s tears spilled as she nodded, trembling as she cupped his face gently. “My son… my beautiful boy.”For the first time since he could remember, Zach smiled, broken, tentative, but real. He fell into her arms, wrapping her tightly as she sobbed against his shoulder.Nearby, Dawson stood frozen, guilt etched deep in his features. He stepped forward finally, his voice unsteady. “Athena… I… I’m so sorry. I should have protected you. I should have protected Logan too. I failed you both by not standing up against my father because I was a coward.”Athena looked up at him through tears, her voice soft but steady. “No. Lex was… a monster, Dawson. But you…” She paused, her voice trembling as she reached for his hand. “You weren’t. You were just… trapped.”Dawson lowered his head, overwhelmed by her forgiveness.The air outside was lighter now, as though the weight that had smothered them all for year

The ballroom had fallen into a quiet lull for Lex. Guests still laughed and chattered around him, but their voices were distant, muffled under the pounding of his heartbeat. His gaze flicked repeatedly to the grand staircase, where Dawson and Zach had disappeared minutes ago into one of the private rooms upstairs. Every tick of the ornate clock mounted on the wall stretched like eternity.Then, finally, his phone vibrated in his pocket.Lex fished it out hastily. On the screen, a message from Dawson glowed faintly:“It’s done.”Lex’s lips curved into a slow, satisfied smirk. Without wasting a second, he made his way upstairs. Each step was silent yet deliberate, his polished shoes grazing the velvet carpet as he approached the corridor leading to the rooms.When he entered, his gaze immediately fell on the sight before him.Zach lay sprawled across the bed, motionless, his chest unnaturally still. A shattered vase littered the marble floor, water seeping slowly into the rug, and a fai

Lex stumbled backward, his usually composed demeanor cracking like shattered glass. His breath hitched, and his sharp eyes darted around the crowded hall, scanning faces that blurred under the golden chandelier lights. Murmurs spread through the guests like ripples on disturbed water, confused whispers tangled with hushed gasps as everyone tried to make sense of his sudden reaction.Dawson’s brows knitted together, his gaze fixed on his father’s pale, frozen face. “Father?” he called softly, but Lex didn’t answer. Without a word, Lex turned and stormed out of the ballroom, his long strides cutting through the chaos as if the walls themselves might collapse if he stayed a second longer.Dawson hesitated for a heartbeat before following. Something in Lex’s expression, a raw, unfamiliar fear, had his stomach tightening.Upstairs, in the dimly lit expanse of his room, Lex paced back and forth like a caged beast. His breaths came harsh and uneven, and his hands shook slightly, clenching a
