The Urban Dao Child.

Chapter 214 - Closure.



Yang Dao raised his head and spotted five people climbing the mountain with great speed. He took a deep breath and controlled the source particle energy to move to his lungs, legs, and shoulders. These three parts of his body were all crucial at this moment. During the time he caught up with the team, he could be seen as over-revving the engine. 

Now he used the source particle energy to alleviate his condition. This was the reason why he was stressing himself so much to catch up with the people. This time he kept a good enough distance with the team and did not join the formation. 

Icarus in the front looked back at Yang Dao who was looking down on the road as he pedaled. He said, "Captain, I have a bad premonition in my heart."

Thomas said, "I know, he is resting before he can take us on. I assure you, this guy caught up thirty minutes gap in fifteen minutes, it would have taken a big toll on his legs. Once he charges ahead. We will not be able to catch up. Ray, speed up." 

Ray nodded and he increased the speed. Yang Dao did not react. The team wanted to compete with Yang Dao. They wanted to show him that they can also excel. In the past few days, the team had developed a shadow in their minds, where they would see Yang Dao riding at the back of the pack. 

Ayaka had told them that the reason why the boy was at the back was that he was carrying weight on his body. They all never knew how hard it was for Yang Dao but given how the boy was always together with them, they thought it was easy. 

Today they all wanted to beat him. This scene was seen in the camp on the summit. Nika had no culinary skills so she was sitting in front of the monitor. She turned her face to the side and said in a loud voice, "Coach, Thomas, and the rest are playing dirty." 

She was a senior year student. Ayaka came over with a look of askance on her face. Nika pointed at the monitor. Ayaka watched the situation and said, "I have been thinking about this for a few days now. These guys think that Yang Dao was always good because of the bike. What surprised me is that all these guys are the ones who always defended Yang Dao." 

Nika said, "They will regret it. Soon, they will realize that it is not the bike that is making the boy move fast, but the boy who is riding the bike." her voice was filled with confidence. 

Icarus was the only one with some hesitation in his mind. He said, "Captain, do you guys really think that Yang Dao is fast and strong because of the bike?\'

Thomas almost did not fall off the bike. Then he asked, "What the heck are you talking about? Do our actions look like that?" 

Icarus nodded with a wry smile on his face. Thomas sighed as he said, "I told you asshole. That what we are doing sends out the wrong message." 

Felix behind him said, "I did not expect this to happen." 

Icarus said, "Can you tell me what is going on here?" his tone was urgent. 

Felix said, "We knew that Dao has never actually tried his best with us. So we wanted to ignite his spirit. The only way to do that is, to poke him slightly." he spoke in a wry tone. 

Icarus could not help but look at him from below his arm. He clenched his jaw and almost could not help himself from cursing the guy. He said, "You poked the wrong person. You will now know what is the actual gap between us." as soon as his words dropped they felt a strong pressure coming from behind. 

Yang Dao had started to speed up at this moment. he stood up from the seat and clicked the gears. He did not look up at the people but only at the road. Soon he was neck to neck with the people. He raised his head and as they turned a U-turn he said, "I apologize for holding back always, but since today you wish to see, I shall grant you this." 

His voice and face were calm as a sea. This was his true nature. The poker face and indifferent Dao. The boy sped up the next moment, and within a few seconds, he had already left the vision of the team. Ray spoke, "He just climbed this slope with a speed of sixty kilometers per hour." 

Icarus asked, "How do you know?" 

Ray pointed his finger at the sky. Icarus looked up and saw the drone flying. He asked, "He left the drone field?" 

Thomas said, "The drone is barely keeping up with it. One thing we must do after the race is to apologize to Dao. We did wrong him even if it is unintentional." his voice was solemn. 

The team realized that in their attempt to poke the boy they had actually wronged him. This was not their motive. So, an apology was deserved. The people carried on climbing. 

Yang Dao had already completed climbing half the mountain, he saw the drone was barely keeping up with him. Thankfully the climb was a snake trail one otherwise, he would have already left it behind. Although the team was left behind, he still did not ease up and climbed with all his gusto. he only left a whooshing sound in his wake. 

His bike lived up to its name and silently climbed the tallest peak. Suddenly, Yang Dao sniffed a peculiar scent in the wind. He was already close to the summit but the smell made him stand up and with a combination of top gears, he started dancing on the bike. The summit was claimed by his climb after three minutes. 

He parked his bike to the side and walked over to the fire where Kiya was stirring the food in the vessel. She saw this guy coming over with a scrunched nose and smiled. yang Dao said, "You are making tofu and coconut curry?"

Kiya nodded. Sasha beside her said, "Young master Feng, your nose really is powerful." as she flashed him a thumbs up. 

The boy rubbed the back of his head. He asked, "Can I go to rest?" 

Kiya said, "Ask the coach." 

Ayaka happened to be coming over. She said, "You can rest when the others arrive. We will eat." 

The boy nodded and went to a tent prepared for them early on. He changed his clothes to a lower and windbreaker. Then he laid down on the mattress inside the tent. The boy was exhausted and that is why he asked to rest. Ayaka was aware of his condition and thus agreed to it. He needed to rest after such an intense climb.

The situation was actually quite worse than what Ayaka speculated it to be. This rest period was making them grow back again and grow stronger than before. 

The process that would have taken him a few weeks as a normal human was completed within a few minutes. The credit goes to the source energy particles inside his body. Sushi jumped out from his hair and sat on his chest with her legs folded. She watched the boy sleep. This sylph has now recovered enough to guard Yang Dao for a few hours as the boy slept. 

During the Bandit raid. Sushi had asked him whether she should act but the boy told her not to attack, lest it revealed her existence. Only after he had finished dealing with it did he find out that the sylphs emitted a speck of dust that can make people forget about their existence if they willed it so. 

That day he learned, to listen before acting. Today he learned never to hold back when competing. This was to show respect to his opponents. The Boy smiled in his smile as he slept. Sushi gazed at his face and mumbled, "master, looks so handsome when he smiles. If only he was smaller in size... Sushi, what smaller size, bah... if he was a sylph that would have been better but the size is good enough." 

Don\'t go on her finger long size and innocent charm. This girl is at least a hundred years old and has spent fifty years in the human world. So she was obviously aware of some stuff meant for adults. 

Today a lot of misunderstandings cleared. The team reached the summit and before Ayaka could scold them. Thomas explained things to her, then they woke up Yang Dao and apologized for their behavior. The boy said, "Senior, you could have just told me to do my best. I respect the effort you all put in. So, I will never hold back while competing with you or anyone." 

Thomas said, "Dao, not everyone deserves to see your best. Just forget it. You will understand one day." he patted his shoulder and left. After all, this was not something that could be said in words. Yang Dao needed to understand things on his own. 

The team then sat around the campfire as they ate food. The training camp came to a closure.
