Because of that, no one dared to offend them.

Qin Zheng passed a look to Lin Cai. "You're getting slower after reaching the middle stage. Should I tell Teacher Chen that you need more training?"

"You stinky brat! Don't you dare say that!"

"Teacher Chen?"

"Teacher Chen as in Chen Suyin," Qin Zheng explained. "She's our homeroom teacher since she used to be an Elite Disciple."

"Huh? How about the previous teacher?"

Lin Cai just smiled with a tinge of sadness in her eyes. "Don't think too much about it. In any case, you'll receive some books for the basic rules in this academy."

A few minutes afterwards, Qi Huan entered the class. He was still panting slightly, but he looked much better compared to most of the students.

"Oh, I'm last."

"There are more core students who hadn't arrived, but yes, you're indeed slow," Lin Cai grinned, proud that she was not the last one to arrive.

Qi Huan sat down behind Ye Jiao. "That means I have to work harder next time."

"Good luck with that."

The four of them chatted as Lin Cai explained the basic rules for this academy. As it was only the second day for them to stay in this academy, they were still unfamiliar with the rules.

"New students have to finish the training set," Lin Cai added. "That training is the one you have this morning and also basic classes. You need to complete them all within three months because afterwards, there's an evaluation for you."

"Evaluation?"

"Yes, you're going to get points from completing each class and also battling with other students. By the end of the year, the points are tallied, and you'll get a reward based on the placement. The first place is the luckiest because you'll be allowed to train in Eon Energy Garden for a day."

"Eon Energy Garden," Qi Huan's interest was piqued up. "What's that?"

"That's the place where they hold every type of Eon Energy. It's not only suitable for training your Eon Energy but also to learn much more about your path because almost everyone who enters the garden will experience some kind of enlightenment that will help them breakthrough to rank 4," Lin Cai explained.

Ye Jiao was astonished. She knew that they needed to find their path if they wished to reach rank 4, but she didn't know that there was actually a place where they could learn it. It was amazing.

"But, it's impossible to suddenly jump stages."

"I see."

Qin Zheng looked at Ye Jiao. "You don't need it, Ye Jiao."

"What?"

Ye Jiao looked at her senior brother with confusion. What did he mean by she didn't need it? She was still in early stage, and it would take a long time before she could break through to rank 4, but it didn't mean that she didn't need the clarity of her path, right?

Lin Cai nudged Qin Zheng from the back as she was sitting right behind him. "Hey, stinky brat, what do you mean by that?"

"It's nothing."

"Tsk, you shouldn't speak halfway!"

Qin Zheng didn't bother explaining as he still remembered the time when all three of them entered the Illusion Array. Based on the time Ye Jiao showed, she was not far behind him and they were still under the time limit. It meant that the two of them were actually already ready for a breakthrough as long as they reached the necessary amount of Eon Energy.

However, he would not tell the young girl.

An hour later, Lu Wan entered the room listlessly. He was among the last batch as he didn't have an extraordinary physical body.

"Ugh, my body hurt all over."

"You should train your Eon Energy," Qi Huan reminded. Lu Wan sat behind him, so he just spoke out.

Lu Wan groaned. "Do you really think that I have the energy to do that?"

Creaaak!

The door at the front was opened, and Chen Suyin entered the class. Ye Jiao had seen this teacher before, so she recognized her instantly. Her body tensed up slightly as she was still unfamiliar with this person. In addition, that surname caused her to feel wary immediately.

"Good evening, everyone. There are still around 10 or so students who haven't arrived yet, but I'll start explaining the basic rules here. I'm Chen Suyin, and I'll be your homeroom teacher for the next few years. If you have any problem, you can come to me, and I'll help you out as much as I can."

Chen Suyin turned around to face the board. She used her Eon Energy to control the chalk and wrote her name.

"First of all, I'm sure that you know that there are a few additional new students this year. There are 15 of you. 2 new Elite Disciples and also 13 Core Disciples," Chen Suyin smiled. "Let me remind you that if you didn't manage to perform and give satisfactory results by the end of this year, you'd be demoted to Inner Disciple."

The atmosphere turned tense as the new students gulped their saliva. They knew that it wouldn't be easy if they wished to stay in this position. No matter what, they needed to perform well.

"There is a points system. You can get points by completing a class, by complete meaning you pass the test and also can perform based on that class. The seniors will give you a more thorough explanation later.

Secondly, every new student will be paired up with one senior who will help them out to adjust during their time here. How long you will stay under them will depend on that senior's opinion regarding your performance. If you have any questions, you can ask them anything," Chen Suyin looked up.

"Except asking them to date you, of course."

The room exploded in laughter. As they all had A talent or above with some exception at B talent, their age ranged mostly 14 to 17 years old and up until 20 years old for old students. It was also the age when they started to feel attracted to the opposite gender, but most of them didn't have such thoughts. They didn't enter the academy just to find a partner.

"If you do have a crush on them, you may ask them later, but not this year," Chen Suyin smiled. "I'll remind you of some other basic rules such as no fighting unless you go to the arena, you need to attend your designated classes and pick new classes once it's finished. Also, there'll be a competition at the end of the year, which will be your evaluation. Any question?"

"Teacher Chen, is there any specific classes that we have to take?"

"Everyone has to attend basic classes. As for the next classes, you can attend it after signing up. It's preferable if you pick classes based on your martial path, but you can learn other things too. Anything else?" Chen Suyin swept the classroom with her gaze. Noticing that they no longer have any question to ask, she continued speaking.

"Now, I'll read the pairing for new students. One more thing, these pairings are only for new students at the early and middle stage because if you're already at a late stage, I'll personally teach you."

Lu Wan raised his head. "That means you won't get a pairing, Qi Huan."

"It seems so," Qi Huan was not bothered at all.

"Why don't they get any pairing?" Ye Jiao found it weird.

"The pairing is to help you finish the hellish training. Once you enter rank 4, you will naturally have a much higher physique and different training environment. Even though they still attend the first week of this hellish training to make sure that their body is still fit, they won't continue until the end of the year."

"Eh? You mean that the seniors didn't have to finish it?"

"If you don't get pairing, you just need to train for a month if you're still rank 3," Lin Cai explained. "Otherwise, you need to train until your pair breakthrough one stage or the end of the year."

Ye Jiao smiled bitterly. There was still around four months left until the end of the year. The seniors must be hoping that their name was not picked.

"Lu Wan with Lin Cai."

"What?"

"Huh?" Lin Cai widened her eyes. She turned her head to Qin Zheng. "You must be the one who suggests my name, right?"

"You need training," Qin Zheng smiled.

"You stinky brat! Come over here, and I'll beat you up in the arena!"

"You have never beaten me even once, Senior Sister Lin."

"Then I'll break that record!"

The other students didn't pay attention to their quarrelling because they were not the only one. The moment the senior heard their name, they felt listless as they understood that they would need to train their juniors. If they were unlucky, they would get one that had just broken through, which meant it would be four full months of hellish training.

"Ye Jiao with Qin Zheng."

"Huh?" Ye Jiao turned her head to Qin Zheng. "Why is it you?"

"I need to train too," Qin Zheng shrugged.

"What? There's no need to specifically become my pair in training, right?"

Qin Zheng didn't reply and took out his book to continue reading. He was not the one who decided on the training partner and could only ask the teacher to make Lin Cai have one as well. He didn't expect them to put him in too. Though, it might be because of the few Elite Disciples in Hua Shan Academy.

On the other hand, Lin Cai still felt annoyed. Her junior brother had just betrayed her!
