You look at your arm as you lay on the side of your bed. You take the bandages off , they had dry blood on it .
Hojin was on the top bed , you were sure he was already asleep .
Yeo wool goes to Sunwoo who was reading this book .
“ how much do you think you can learn from that? You will be first to leave... Hwarang House anyway. Do not waste your energy ” Yeo wool tells Sunwoo
Those words catched your attention .
“ aside from him, it will still be hard to survive in here ” yeo wool said referring to Sunwoo
Sunwoo puts a hand on his head annoyed and looks at Yeo wool .
“ please mind your own business . I have no interest in you ” Sunwoo tells Yeo wool
Yeo wool puts a hand on his chest .
“ I feel like I have been put down ” Yeo wool said
“ let him be ” you said getting everyones attention you haven't really talked to any of them
“ he might be a half-breed... But how does that matter? Who knows, he might be the first one out of the Hwarang House , or it can just be one of you ” you tell them as you take some bandages out
“ ... Think about it , your attitude and actions matter the most here in the Hwarang House . Keep that in mind ” you tell them
All of them look at you , you were right . You had a point , it didn't matter of your rank , your attitude and actions matter .
You take the bandages and wrap it aeound your arm .
“ you're right ” Dongil said with a smile
“ how can you think of that? Yoy must've been teached well in your family ” Isang also said with a smile
You look at them and scoff slightly.
“ family...? ” you asked
Your family didn't teach you those kinds of things . You learned it yourself .
“ a king and water . Where could the king be? ” Soho say's
“ why does that matter? A king without a face is powerless ” Ban ryu say's
“ like you ” Isang said with a small laugh
Ban ryu looks at Isung and he quickly shuts up looking away from Ban ryu .
You laugh slightly , Dongil and Isang look at you .
“ you can laugh? ” Dongil asks with a smile
You stop laughing and make your face serious again . Isang looks at Dongil
“ why did you say that? ” Isang whispers to Dongil
“ do people not tell you that you are like a tree? You are constantly rude just like a pine tree ” Soho tells Ban ryu
Ban ryu just looks at Soho .

You sit down on your desk . It was the test day , lots of Hwarangs wrote down notes for the answer and was writing them anywhere they can .
“ how pathetic ” yeo wool say's looking around
You look at him .
“ this is not something one can solve like that . Do you not agree? ” Yeo wool asks me
Soho puts a paper on Yeo wool's back .
“ it is my backup ” Soho tells Yeo wool
“ some people cannot think when they are taken aback ” Soho explains
Yeo wool looks at Hansung
“ why did you not stop him ” Yeo wool tells Hansung he just smiles
“ Hansung-ah... Decided to sit beside me ” Soho say's turning his back so Hansung can see the notes on his back
You laugh slightly again .
“ how can you guys think of that? ” you ask them
“ they can't always use their heads ” Yeo wool tells you
Yeo wool looks at Soho
“ you look so perfect , but it's unfortunate ” Yeo wool say's
Soho smiles
“ I am not that perfect ” Soho said confidently
“ that was not my point ” Yeo wool say's
Hansung looks at you
“ y/n , why aren't you using some notes to refresh it? ” Hansung asks you with a smile
“ I don't need them . I'm confident enough to pass this test , how hard can it be? ” You tell him
“ I like your confidence ” Soho compliments
You
“ what will happen to dog-bird if he does not pass? ” Hansung asks
“ he will lose 1 of his 3 chance's . Then it will be harder for him to stay” Soho said
“ do you crave authority . Do you want to become an official? It would be nice to be an official . You do not have responsibilities, but your power becomes unbelievable . When you become an official , you will own Silla... For the rest of your lives. If you wish to climb... to somewhere higher than where you are... If you want to protect what you have ... If you want to survive, you must pass . That is the only way ... For you to get what you want . Let me repeat . Discuss King as water . However, it must be before
" Tao Te Ching " ( the value if nature ) you may begin
Master Wi hwa say's .
The Hwarangs begin to look at their cheating notes or their 'refreshing' notes like how Hansung said.
Dongil looks at Isung who was making it hard for him to see the notes . Dongil tries to get Isang's attention .
Isang pulls his sleeve up looking at the notes Dongil wrote on his arm , he could barely read them . Isang sighs annoyed that was until Dongil kicked his back . Isang was about to wince in pain but quickly covers his mouth .
Isang looks back at Dongil who was whispering at him . Isung looks forward again , he then looks at Mori who was next to him .
Isang looks at his paper , Mori looks at Isang and Isung quickly looks away looking at his paper
__
“ this person copied Chapter Three of
" Tao Te Ching " ” Master Wi hwa say's as he puts the paper away
Isang sighs
“ it is difficult to rule over people... Because they are wise . Hence , we must make the people... Be like water. Like water in water , and water in alcohol ” Master Wi hwa reads looking at Soho
“ what is it? Am I wrong? ” Soho asks
Master Wi hwa takes my paper and looks at me and he puts it in the pass section . Most of the Hwarangs look at you surprised .
