Noon, the training fields for the necromancy major.

Han Shuo was absentmindedly cleaning as he ran through Master Gene's morning lecture in his mind. Han Shuo's eyebrows were slightly as he was deep in thought.

A fat figure sprinted in from the door and came to a stop in front of Han Shuo. Jack panted heavily as he said hurriedly, "Bad news Bryan! Carey and Borg are coming to get revenge on you!"

Han Shou was a bit unhappy that his thoughts had been interrupted. He frowned upon seeing Jack's panicked face and asked, "What going on? Didn't I beat up those two idiots last time? What do they want with me again?"

"I don't know, I'm not sure either. I only heard that they're in pain because they ate something this morning. Their faces are all green! They're yelling about getting revenge on you, even Lisa's looking for you!"

Han Shuo still felt a bit of pain when he touched his back, but it felt a lot better than it had last night. The magical yuan had eventually fully enclosed the dark green fighting aura within his spine, and seemed to be shrinking slowly. This gave Han Shuo a small bit of comfort.

"Don't blame me since you've come looking for death!" Han Shuo coldly snorted and tightly grasped the broom in his hand as he looked towards the door.

Jack still wore an anxious expression on his face as he wringed his hands, "Bryan, it's different this time. Carey and Borg got a few helpers and they don't seem to be errand boys from the necromancy major. They're all really tall and strong! Hurry and run!"

"Damned Bryan, how dare you plot against us! I'll make you pay today!" Carey's voice had already traveled in from outside as Jack was urgently trying to convince Han Shuo to run. A crowd of people had already blocked the training field doors by the time he'd finished speaking.

Carey and Borg really did have green faces, and Borg "eurped" as soon as they had walked in through the doors. He clutched his stomach and his body spasmed for a while. He vomited a black and gooey liquid, and his breath immediately smelled of a bitter sourness.

Carey's already green face looked even worse after seeing Borg spit something out. His stomach also seemed to be in pain as he coughed into his hand, but couldn't vomit anything despite wanting to.

"Bryan, what did you tell Lisa to refine?! She fed it to us and we're like this now! It's my death or yours today!" He clutched his stomach with one hand and pointed an accusing finger with the other as he spoke bitterly. Borg's body felt a bit weak after vomiting , and leaned on the door to keep himself upright.

He smiled inwardly as Han Shuo felt silly. He had randomly made up some disgusting things to fob off Lisa last time she'd asked him why he suddenly became so agile and vigorous, but who knew that she'd take it for real and actually refine the revolting things. It looks like she'd experimented on Borg and Carey, no wonder the two looked worse than death.

"No, no I didn't!" Han Shuo shook his head and said with an expression of ignorance. He looked dumb and quite innocent.

"Lisa told us everything. How dare you still say you didn't! I'm not leaving until I teach you a lesson today!" Carey bellowed angrily and made a gesture at those he'd brought with him. There were six errand boys, including Borg. They rolled up their sleeves and walked menacingly towards Han Shuo.

Apart from Carey and Borg, the other errand boys were from the department of dark magic, but they didn't quite measure up to Jack's description of being tall and strong. They were tall alright, but the tall ones were stick thin. There were strong ones alright, but they weren't as tall as Han Shuo. On a whole, the tall ones weren't strong, and the strong ones weren't tall. Their fighting ability probably didn't amount to much.
