Anqi Qing Shan followed behind as usual with her signature neutral smile.
"Hello Zi Hua"
"Good morning, we'll be classmates from now on" Zi Hua replied.
"Yeah"
"Oh, I'll excuse myself so you two can talk" Although Anqi Qing Shan was reluctant to part with her sister but she had to socialize with others, her sister not socializing could be brushed off as going through her rebellious phrase but she could not, plus it would be good for her to form some friendly connections to steady her standing in the family.
Anqi Qing Shan was not the jealous type unlike a certain subtly jealous protagonist so she didn't mind leaving her dear sister with someone else, it's not like that person was some Haruhi 2.0, right? (A/N: You'd get this if you've seen Ouran High School Host Club and if you haven't you should totally check it out, it's a really funny anime and manga)
She left to approach the other young masters and misses.
However, they did not have too much time to chat before the teacher arrived.
The students all sat down sensibly since they should get on their teacher's good side so they can learn to the fullest and have more guidance, they couldn't complain to the academy after all if they felt like they were being neglected because of the various complicated relations and backings the academy had.
Their families wouldn't be willing to incite trouble upon themselves.
The teacher just so happened to be the examiner that Zi Hua met during her exam.
A wave of deja vu washed over Zi Hua.
'Are you serious!'
One of her professors from her university was also the examiner she had in her previous life.
"Good Morning, from now on I'll be your teacher, I am Peng Yi Lang, you may all call me Teacher Peng" The teacher stood at the front of the class and introduced. (A/N: I only realized what 'Teacher Peng' could mean after I had written it, not intentional, Lol)
"Greetings Teacher Peng"
"Today we'll be starting off with some practice battles to show each person's progress in the fields" The class then left and headed to the field whilst other classes were listening to their teachers' lectures.
Teacher Peng then brought out some chopsticks with numbers on them at the bottom part which was hidden by the container and told them to choose one each and they would have to spar against the person with the same number as them.
Zi Hua got paired with a tan looking guy that had a large build, if she could choose a phrase to describe him then it would be 'Muscle Head'.
Surprisingly, he was actually only 15, a year younger than Zi Hua despite how he looked, the sparring was not organised to be fair and many had to fight with someone a minor rank or two above them but Muscle Head was actually a High Stage Martial Practitioner too, a genius!
Despite it being only one year, that difference can clearly show the gap between each person's talent. (A/N: Zi Hua is also 15 but the appearance/identity she took on is 16)
Muscle Head ahem I mean Zhao Lao Hu is the sole heir to the Zhao Family Patriarch, he has demonstrated his cultivation prowess from young and his seat is set.
The Zhao Family is known for their low key approach to things and is a rather detached family.
His family had decided to send him to the academy to help him cool down and develop a calmer temperament since Sanguine Scholar Academy, as its name suggests, is the most intelligence-based academy out of the top three and it's reputed for the intellect of its students during battle.
Their number was five so their match was the fifth one, whilst other matches were going on Zhao Lao Hu approached Zi Hua, Anqi Feng shielded Zi Hua when she saw him approach, ready to defend her.
