Chapter 3 - Unmasked Potentials

Kairos got early in the morning to go to High School as usual (Ji'nan High School). "Tomorrow is the college entrance exam. I hope you all will work very hard to live up to your expectations and your parents' undying wish for you," the teacher said. They all stood up and greeted her goodbye. She also said bye to them. Kairos and Lena chatted for a while before they departed.

As he was on his way home, Zhen and his minions were waiting for him by the road. Zhen shouted, "Warrior kid, you've been hiding behind Lena's back. Let's have a fight!" Kairos smiled and replied, "I've been looking for someone to shape my skills. Let's go for it." Zhen said, "I'm a senior student of a Star Ruin martial arts club." "So are they," Kairos smirked. "Real skills, talk here."

Just as they were fighting, a car noticed them. Inside was a Star warrior; his driver recognized Zhen as a warrior in their martial arts club. The warrior asked, "What about the other one?" The driver answered, "We seem not to have his files." The warrior said, "Let's watch an interesting fight."

Zhen made the first move but was instantly punched in the face by Kairos. The Star Ruin warriors were surprised by the punch. Kairos towed. He said, "That was fast. It should be precisely 30 meters per second." The three of them tried to overpower Kairos, but he beat the three to a pulp. Zhen reminded him, saying, "We'll see about what I'll do."

The warrior was surprised. "That boy's hit skill is 900kg, beating three of our senior students at once. What a talent!" He told the driver to check on him later. "I need everything about him. Let's go." They drove away. Zhen shouted as he ran like a chicken, "I'll get back at you for this!"

Kairos walked home proudly but said to himself, looking at the luxurious House in Hia Xin Inner City base, "I must become a warrior to afford a home like this."

Kairos reached home to his blind brother, Leo, and his dad, Jian, who had a crippled hand. Leo shouted, "Brother, you're late! The food Dad prepared is getting cold!" He said as they all seated and ate braised pork and rice.

Kairos' dad, Jian, asked, "Is tomorrow your college exam?" "Yes," Kairos answered.

His little brother asked, "Big bro, which academy are you applying for?" Hia Xin Number One Military Academy. Training to be a warrior in the army. Might be able to cover expenses for the family, and we'll live in a good house. And you might have a chance to see again and study computer coding like you want."

"Besides, where's Mom? She supposed to be home by now?" Kairos asked.

"Hey, honey, are you worried about me?" Mei came in through the door. "Just got delayed." "Hmm, what's that smell? Braised pork?" As they smiled and ate like a healthy family.

Meanwhile...

Master Zhen, "I have found Kai's house." Zhen replied, "Good. Prepare the plan." He said to the spy he sent to watch Kai. "Yes, boss."

Zhen said to himself, "This is what you get for messing with me."
