A smile formed on the corner of Lu Wan's mouth. In that case, he had to work extra harder.

Elder Qian walked out from the Teleportation Array and waved his hand. "Why are you all still here? Let's go to your dormitory."

"Everyone is here already? They're pretty quick," Qin Zheng commented.

Elder Qian laughed. "Of course, it's quick. Do you think that my Teleportation Array is going to be bad and unable to send them all quickly?"

"Well, you usually…."

Swoosh!

"Stop using your Eon Energy to mess with me!" Qin Zheng hurriedly formed Eon Energy wall around him, but it was useless. Elder Qian was already Eon Energy Master Rank 5, so it would be extremely hard for him to contend against him.

Even with just a flick of Elder Qian's hand would be enough to nearly send him to the death's door.

"That's because you're going to reveal that great secret of mine," Elder Qian waved his hand, and the array disappeared.

Qin Zheng just smiled wickedly. What great secret? Did it mean that Elder Qian would inevitably become a bully whenever he was teaching a student that he fancied? When there was a time, he would surely tell his new juniors about this.

Ye Jiao had a bad feeling when she saw Qin Zheng's smile. She just prayed in her heart that this young man would not scheme again.

He's truly a troublemaker.

"Follow after me, I'll take you to your dormitory."

Because they would all live in this place, it was quite normal that they would have their own residences. After all, they couldn't return back and forth with their home that was located billions of kilometers away from this place.

There were several new Core Disciples that Elder Qian brought this time, including Lu Wan. All of them came from a different place and were still unfamiliar with one another. They mostly stayed quiet as they didn't know anyone. In fact, they were a bit astonished to see the other three were bantering with Qin Zheng.

Who among them didn't know that man's infamous name now?

"Oh yeah, is there any other Elite Disciples, Zheng Ge?" Ye Jiao asked.

"There's one senior sister," Qin Zheng replied. "Her name is Lin Cai. You'll meet her later."

"Ooh, her name sounds delicious," Lu Wan muttered.

The other three looked at Lu Wan with the look: 'what are you talking about? Her name just meant wild herbs….' (cai = wild herbs)

Lu Wan grinned. "Well, I just think that it's suited her very much."

"Even when you haven't met her?"

"That…."

Qin Zheng shook his head. "I'll put in good words about you to her later. Expect her to find you in the near future."

Qi Huan and Ye Jiao turned their heads away when they saw Lu Wan begged like that. It would be better if they just pretended that they didn't know this young man. At the very least, it wouldn't hurt their head to see him beg. Still, they become extremely curious about this young lady that would be their senior sister.

As for Lu Wan's fate, who didn't know that Qin Zheng would surely instigate their senior sister to fight with Lu Wan? Even if Lu Wan got beaten up, Qi Huan and Ye Jiao would choose to just watch from the sidelines and do nothing.

"There'll be a class tomorrow morning in the Central Building. Your seniors will show you the way and there, you'll learn much more about the rules in this academy," Elder Qian recalled something and looked to Ye Jiao. "For the beginning, you still need to follow the rules, and afterwards, I'll give you what I promised you."

"Ok!"

"What?" Lu Wan peered to Ye Jiao in curiosity. "What did you get as an offer to have you pick this academy?"

"I wonder."

"Tsk, you're keeping it a secret."

"Hehehe," Ye Jiao giggled. It was then that she recalled something. "Right, how come the qualification to enter the academy is this lax? I mean, it should be normally impossible to become an Elite Disciple directly, right?"

"Not really," Qin Zheng was the one to reply. "They just allow it to happen because the Xian Gu Kingdom is not truly safe. The death's rate of disciples is extremely high, including the Elite Disciple."

"High?"

"You see, in all academies, only one among five Elite Disciples can safely graduate from their academy," Qin Zheng explained with a pained smile on his face.

One among five.

As Elite Disciple was known to be the future successor, there was no doubt that they would receive the best treatment. How come the death's rate is so big?

"By graduate, do you mean achieving a certain….?"

"Once you reach Eon Energy Master Rank 5, you're qualified to graduate from this academy," Qin Zheng explained.

Rank 5?

Does it mean that there was a high possibility for them to die under the age of 30 or even 20? After all, Eon Energy Master Rank 5 were normally in the age range of twenty years old or so.

"How about the Core Disciples or Inner disciples?" Qi Huan asked with a frown. He didn't expect that the place they came to was so dangerous. When he had the time, he would go to the library and search everything that was necessary for him.

Qin Zheng smiled. "The survivors' rate for Core Disciples are mostly only 10%. It's around the same with Inner and Outer Disciples, which is why the academies always have to replenish their disciples each year from those secluded areas."

"Secluded areas?" Ye Jiao asked. "Is the regeneration rate here slow?"

"It's not slow, but with so many people dying each year, it can't possibly catch up with the birth's rate,�� Qin Zheng replied. Actually, he wanted to add that most of those who died were also in their teenage age, so the number of people who could reproduce was also limited.

However, looking at Ye Jiao's appearance, he felt that it would just be unnecessary information for this little lass.

"It's not like the academy is unsafe," Elder Qian cut off their conversation. "Now, Qin Zheng can guide your two new juniors while I…"

"Qin Zheng! Elder Qian!"

The sudden yell caused everyone to turn their head in one direction. They could see a young girl around the age of 13 years old running towards their direction. Her blonde hair was let free as they fluttered along as she ran while her amber eyes were sparkling in excitement.

"Senior Sister Lin," Qin Zheng greeted with a smile.

Lin Cai stopped in front of them as she grinned happily. "Will I get new junior disciples? I heard that there's talent S coming. Is that true?"

"Ah," Qin Zheng pushed Ye Jiao forward. "Greet your senior sister."

"Greeting Senior Sister Lin, I'm Ye Jiao," Ye Jiao bowed politely. Internally, she was cursing Qin Zheng for treating her like a child who didn't know how to greet other people.

"Awwww, you're so cute!"

Without hesitation, Lin Cai hugged Ye Jiao tightly. Her built was slightly taller than Ye Jiao, but she has a slender arm and figure. Even though she was still in her development period, she had started to grow as a woman.

"Thank you, Senior Sister Lin… Can you release me?"

"Ah, sorry," Lin Cai realized that she must have choked Ye Jiao.

*cough*

"It's fine," Ye Jiao smiled wryly. Her senior sister seemed to be full of boundless energy. In addition, she had quite a large strength.

"Show them their room, Zheng and Cai," Elder Qian rubbed his forehead. "Also, Cai, do not skip class tomorrow because you have to give some examples."

"Eeeeh? I want to play in the garden again!"

"Not tomorrow."

"Aw, stingy master." Lin Cai stuck out her tongue. She turned around and grabbed Ye Jiao's hand. "Let's go and see your dormitory. I'm sure that you'll like it."

"Ah, alright."

Qin Zheng and Qi Huan followed behind in moderate pace while Elder Qian went in a completely different way. The other new students were all very quiet as they didn't know how to react. That new senior sister of theirs just came and went like the wind.

"I'm surprised to see her grab Ye Jiao so suddenly like that," Qi Huan muttered as they walked.

"Lin Cai has always wanted a younger junior sister. Everyone was always older than her," Qin Zheng explained. This would be the first time they accepted someone younger than Lin Cai, so that girl was excited. Counting the age, Ye Jiao should be around a year and a few months younger than Lin Cai.

"You're younger."

"I'm a man."

"Right…"

The two of them no longer talked as they walked towards the direction of their new residences.
