Of course, the e-sports school was just something Fang Zheng said casually. The Internet is still not popular among the general public in this world, so what’s the point of e-sports?

Finally, Fang Zheng decided on this school. As for the name... Fang Zheng thought about it for a long time, from Hope's Peak to Yasosha, from Hinamizawa to Nagadenji, from Otonogizaka to Hogwarts, and finally decided to follow the majority and call it "Semlia United Academy".

After all, those names were either unlucky or inappropriate... Fang Zheng wanted to call it Duel Academy, but the card battle game hadn't been released yet, so it was difficult for him to even create a Duel City.

Under the coordination of the Qiyao Church, teachers for various subjects have basically been selected.

First of all, Fang Zheng concurrently served as the principal, martial arts instructor, and political and force technology instructor. After all, the people of the Semlia continent now generally agreed that Starlight Technology had led the development of force technology throughout the continent. Moreover, Fang Zheng himself was a well-known figure in the force technology circle, and his political theory had caused quite a stir in various countries. Other countries sent people here to study, naturally to learn something new from him, so Fang Zheng had no choice but to do more work.

Fang Zheng assigned the position of Vice Principal to Tova Hershel. Although this petite girl looked like a junior high school student, she was very good at arranging personnel matters, so Fang Zheng made her his deputy. Moreover, her abilities were not bad either.

The Dean of Studies is the Sword Saint of Wind, Arios Marklein... As of the current situation, Crossbell itself does not have any major problems, and Fang Zheng believes that after the school is officially operational, there will definitely be a lot of rats from all over the place, so the Sword Saint of Wind is appointed as the Dean of Studies. On the one hand, his reputation as a strong man in the realm of reason can better suppress everyone, and on the other hand, it can also better protect the safety of students.

The history and literature department instructor was Rufina Argent from the Seven Luminaries Church, which was a compromise. After all, history was something that each country had different interpretations and explanations of. The question of Crossbell's former ownership alone was enough to make the Empire and the Republic argue for three days and three nights, so it was more appropriate to let the church, a permanent neutral third party, take charge.

The instructor of the Art Department is Mary Otheim from the Erebonia Empire, a noble lady with blonde hair, golden eyes and an elegant temperament.

The instructor of the Economics Department is Elsa Kokulan from the Republic of Calvard. She used to be the Republic's ambassador to Liberl, but her ambassadorial post was revoked after the Liberl Incident. Sending her here this time can be regarded as a signal from the Republic.

Because of the tense relationship between the Empire and the Republic, Fang Zheng finally placed these two people in two less important instructor positions. After all, one teaches art and the other teaches economics, so it is impossible for them to fight again.

After confirming the assignment of instructors, Fang Zheng also received the list of new students from the Qiyao Church.

Judging from the list, the Erebonia Empire basically took up the majority, and other countries only sent one or two people. This was also normal. Erebonia probably wanted to build a relationship with Fang Zheng because of the previous civil war - this can be seen from the fact that Princess Elfen personally enrolled in school this time.

By the way, Alyssa wanted to transfer here, but she couldn't. As mentioned before, after the civil war, the Ryanfort Company, which provided mechas for the noble coalition army, was also liquidated. Although it was because the subordinates did it themselves, and after that, the Ryanfort Chamber of Commerce also provided brand new tanks for the 4th Armored Division in order to reduce the punishment, the death penalty can be avoided, but the final result is that the Empire ordered the Ryanfort Company to be split up, and the part that originally belonged to the research and development of military equipment was separated from it and returned to the Empire for operation, and the current president of the Ryanfort Company, Irina, must also resign.

It was also because of this that Alyssa was taken back by her mother to catch up on the knowledge she needed to become the next president of Ryanfort Corporation, so naturally she could not come.

The same goes for Chloë Sebastian—or Crown Princess Chloë Sebastiana. After all, she is the next queen, so naturally she can no longer wear a vest and go on incognito visits to school and chat with everyone as before.

In the list of new students, there are six people from the Erebonian Empire, namely Princess Elfyn Lazer Anor, as well as Elise Schwartz, Emma Milstin, Laura S. Alsaid, Miaojie Igret and Altina Orlean.

Hmm... I don't know if it's Fang Zheng's illusion, but he seems to know all the people on this list except the last two...

The person who came from Liberl was also an acquaintance... Tita Russell, well, this person was naturally very familiar to her. It was probably because of this relationship that she was allowed to come to Crossbell.

As for the Republic of Calvard, it sent an international student named Lisha Mao and a girl named Elaine Okrel.

On the other hand, two students from the Principality of Remifilia were admitted, a girl named Louise (Fang Zheng was so scared by the name that he checked her photo to see if she was a pink-haired tsundere who could cause an explosion), and... Theo Prato.

That’s right, it was Theo’s parents who wrote to her, saying that it was the intention of Grand Duke Remiferia, and Theo nodded and agreed reluctantly - she was indeed from the Principality of Remiferia, and there was nothing wrong with representing the Principality.

What Theo herself thinks is another matter.

Even the Artria Code Country, the headquarters of the Seven Lights Church, sent an international student - Liz Argent, who is also Rufina's sister. According to Rufina, she is currently striving to become a knight, and the reason she came here is to observe and supervise other students as a representative of the church.

After all, Rufina is a teacher, and she also needs someone who can move freely among the students.

But for Fang Zheng...

"Why are there only girls here? Are we going to change to an all-girls school?"

Fang Zheng put down the list in his hand and looked at Rufina in confusion, while the latter gave a wry smile.

"Of course not. The original list was not like this. However, representatives from various countries 'strongly demanded' that women be given priority in admission."

"Haha, sugar-coated bullet. Aren't you afraid that I will eat the sugar coating and throw the bullet back?"

Fang Zheng certainly understood what the other countries were thinking. With Starlight Technology already showing overwhelming power, other countries no longer dared to engage in blatant hostile actions. Therefore, whether it was appeasement, winning over, or espionage, women were more suitable than men. Although he didn't know if they knew the significance of their coming here, Fang Zheng didn't care.

Thinking back to when he was the emperor for a thousand years in the world of A Step into the Past, how many people disguised themselves as palace maids and concubines to assassinate him? Which one wasn't swallowed up by Fang Zheng with a smile? In the end, there were also many who turned against him and became his loyal subordinates.

Don’t underestimate my lust... ahem, nothing.

But Fang Zheng didn't care about it. A girls' school is a girls' school. He thought it was better this way. Who wouldn't want to be surrounded by a bunch of young girls? Fang Zheng himself didn't want to be limited because he didn't want others to think he was an LSP. But now they took the initiative to send him here. It was like Zhou Yu fighting Huang Gai. One was willing to fight and the other was willing to be beaten. In addition, it was the Seven Stars Church that selected the candidates. Even if he took the blame, it wouldn't be his turn. Let the Seven Stars Church take the blame.

Of course, since it is an international school, there must be local students from Crossbell. The first one to join is naturally Ling. After hearing that Tida would come, she has been pestering Fang Zheng, and now she has naturally got what she wanted.

As for Illya and Xiao Hei, they were really fed up with being elementary school students for ten thousand years and said that they would rather eat, drink and have fun here than go to school. Fang Zheng just let them do what they wanted.

The same goes for Fei. If there are no hunters to kill, she is basically more interested in sleeping than going to school. Fang Zheng also doesn't want her to go in and lower the average score of the Crossbell faction, so he just lets her go.

The final list of people included was a girl named Yuna Crawford, and... Qia.

That’s right, Fang Zheng stuffed Qiya in as well.

Although it is reasonable to say that all the talents sent by each country are elites, and although there are some differences in age, their academic performance is not much different. In order to raise the threshold, Fang Zheng also specially issued an academic ability test. Only those who pass this test are eligible to enter the list. Since the questions of the academic ability test are the same, it means that regardless of age, the difficulty of the assessment is the same for everyone.

The oldest of them, Emma Milstin and Laura S. Alsay, were both seventeen years old, while Princess Elfin and Elise were only fourteen. Theo and Ling were even younger, twelve and thirteen years old respectively, but in terms of academic performance, even the youngest Ling and Theo were not much different from the oldest ones.

No, it should be said that they are far more than that. After all, Ling has already started writing papers, and Tio has already passed the college entrance examination. If the pyramid is allocated according to academic ability, then these two youngest guys are at the top of the pyramid.

Now we have to add Qia to the mix.

As expected of a man-made person created as the carrier of the treasure of Zero, Qiya is also a natural talent in learning. In just a few months, she has learned all the knowledge of this world from primary school to junior high school. In terms of entrance examination scores, her performance is not much worse than that of royal elites such as Princess Elfen. So Fang Zheng also let her in. After all, Qiya is smart and cute. Fang Zheng doesn't want those little brats to hang around her all day. It would be better for Qiya to transfer here and communicate with international students from various countries, which would be more beneficial to her growth.

As for Yuna Crawford, she was recommended by Crossbell Sunday School. To put it bluntly, she was a local three-good student and an excellent class leader with a good resume and many awards. Considering that there had to be a local of Crossbell after all, and she did pass the academic test, Fang Zheng recruited her.

So the first batch of freshmen at Semlia Academy consisted of just over a dozen people, plus six teachers including Fang Zheng, which added up to just over twenty people in total.

What else can Fang Zheng say about this?

Just take it one step at a time.
