Sir Ares, Goodnight novel (Jay Ares and Rose)
Chapter 1161

The training ground.

Jenson's perfect body stood as straight as a pencil as he waited silently for the other teachers and students to arrive.

Dan Cullen pushed through the horde of students into the training ground. When he saw Jenson standing in the arena, he realized what was going on.

"Big Brother wants to challenge the only graduation module for this month. Since we've acknowledged him as our big brother, we should help him."

"How are we going to do that?" asked the other students.

"Nonsense, we'll give up on the exam this time so that Big Brother won't have much trouble. Only then can he save his strength for the teachers," said Dan.

Soon enough, Mr. Cornelius walked into the training ground with heavy footsteps and his hands behind his back.

All of a sudden, the training ground went silent.

Mr. Cornelius looked at the students sitting on the spectator seats and asked in bewilderment, "Why not go ahead and challenge?"

All of the students were so spirited, so logically speaking, they would love the chance to fight against the strongest students so that they could improve their martial arts skills.

The students laughed naively as they shook their heads. They lied and said, "Sir, Jenson's a demon. His techniques are too strange, so how can we beat him? Let's not put ourselves to shame." Mr. Cornelius was stunned. "When did you all become so humble?"

"Mr. Cornelius, do you want to give up the chance at challenging Jenson? Just think about it. Jenson is so small, so if you lose to him, how shameful would that be?" said Dan with other intentions. Mr. Cornelius suddenly realized what was going on. "I get it. You boys have acknowledged Jenson as your big brother, so you all want to help him go against me, right?" The students,"..."

Mr. Cornelius grinned and leaped into the ring.

"Jenson, you lost to me just a few days ago. In these few days, do you think that you have a chance at beating me?" Mr. Cornelius teased him.

Jenson nodded. "Mm."

Mr. Cornelius was stunned. "Alright, then let me test you." He then wrapped his arms around himself and waited for Jenson to strike first.

However, Jenson was as stable and steady as a mountain. If Mr. Cornelius would not move, he would not move an inch either.

Mr. Cornelius smiled. "Alright then, you brat. You're quite stable on the inside, eh? Alright then, I'll show you what I've got!"

After he said that, he grabbed onto the rope above him and kicked at Jenson.

The students who were watching from down below hollered, "Big Brother, be careful of his kick."

Jenson did not panic. He took his hand out from his pocket and produced a willow leaf from his hand. He put some force into it and the willow leaf glided through the air like a blade toward the rope. A sound was heard, then the snapping of a rope. Thankfully, Mr. Cornelius quickly landed on another rope.

Whenever Mr. Cornelius had a plan, Jenson would have his own contingency plan for it. He had ten stalks of peach blossoms in front of him which he had picked up on his way to the training ground. At that moment, he kicked and launched a stalk into the air. He caught it in his palm and gave it a light squeeze. The blossom disintegrated from that.

Just when Mr. Cornelius got close to him, Jenson lashed out with the peach blossom and the petals launched into the air toward Mr. Cornelius' face.

At that very moment, Jenson leaped into the air and grabbed at the hanging ropes, jumping and circling around Mr. Cornelius.

His speed was like lightning.

Mr. Cornelius had a few bouts of close-ranged fights. Jenson's technique was not as varied as Mr. Cornelius, but he would not let go of the rope. He could not find a way to strike and looked powerless.

Even the group of students who were concerned about him started to give up on him. "Agh, Mr. Cornelius' martial arts skill is so unpredictable. Big Brother had just been learning for three years, so how could he go against him?"
