"Headmaster, I hope we will have a great co-operation, after me, my father hopes that more transfer students may also come, if this turns out to be good, we will allow some of your students to transfer and learn within the Primordial lands, Music Valley is looking forward to our long-term co-operation" Song Yin Jun said with a smile.
"Haha, of course, of course, likewise, but when will the academies' students be able to start going to Music Valley?" The headmaster laughed heartily, he had landed on the jackpot, Sanguine Scholar Academy has always been the last out of the top three academies but once the word gets out that they have an exchange program with the Primordial lands, students will be flooding in.
Although some families had ties with powers in the Primordial lands, they were usually very lowly ranked in the eyes of that power.
Sanguine Scholar Academy had been set up by the legendary Supreme Sovereign's sworn brother yet was ranked 3rd, 3rd! Not 1st!
Unfortunately, he did not know that the Supreme Sovereign which he so admired due to the influence by the academy's founder was killed by the same Primordial lands which he was trying to partner up with, if only he knew...
'Ignorance is a crime'
Seeing the headmaster's manner of speech, Zi Hua reckoned that he had been swayed by the attraction of power, but also could tell that Music Valley's intentions were not that simple since they were trying to be friendly with a mere headmaster.
Despite the information she has at hand being far from enough, she wasn't willing to put her subordinates at risk especially with her current situation going on where she can't grow stronger due to the restriction/mission from her master.
It seems that she'll have to do some interoggating.
From what she can see Song Yin Jun wasn't lying about the co-operation just to scam the headmaster so it that would most likely mean that they are trying to pry some information out of the headmaster by gaining his trust.
Zi Hua waited outside until they finished their conversation and the headmaster returned to his own pavilion, the dorms paled in comparison to the headmaster's pavilion.
When the headmaster got back, Zi Hua made sure no one was around and then left the darkness. (A/N: This reminds me of my science class where for some reason the sun always shines on only one side so when people walk over to the dark part that doesn't receive as much sunlight (the side of the class that I sit) people start saying 'Welcome to the dark side, join us', Lol)
"Headmaster, I would like you to explain some parts which I am confused on" A figure clad in a purple so dark that if one does not look twice they would mistake it as black melted out of the darkness.
"Wha- Who's there?!" The headmaster turned around warily, glaring at the figure who had appeared inconspicuously, unnoticed.
However, the next moment he had a knife at his throat.
"Answer my questions or else..." Zi Hua purposely trailed off her sentence, this was what she found the most effective when interrogating those who were not trained in keeping their mouths zipped, when their life is threatened, they panic and lose their composure and ability to judge, falling right into her trap.
Cold sweat dripped down from the headmaster's forehead, the academy being so influential had little to no threats so his job solely consisted of overseeing the academy, having no experiences of such situations.
"Ye-yes, please spare me!" He still had a long life to live, his lifespan had just extended and he was still waiting for the next headmaster to be appointed so that he could live the rest of his life peacefully and luxuriously after retiring.
"Good, answer my questions and you will be safe, whether or not you tell others, I do not care but answer my questions truthfully and no harm will befall upon you"
"First, I would like to know..."
