"What good is it if Chu Chuyan is capable and powerful? She can only marry such a useless husband."
"Hehehe..."
The teachers conducting the test had obviously heard the legend of the Chu family's son-in-law. The teacher named Ni Dian sneered, "I knew it. It seems the test ball was broken. Since His Excellency the Duke personally tested it before, it can't be wrong. Zu An, your aptitude is D-grade, lower class. Go to the Yellow class."
The academy is divided into three grades, and each grade is further divided into four classes based on aptitude: Heaven, Earth, Black, and Yellow. Someone like Hong Xingying is definitely in the Heaven class, as is the person with aptitude B. Wei Suo, who was in the middle aptitude of D, was naturally assigned to the Yellow class, just like Zu An.
Just as another teacher was about to say something, his ears twitched, and he looked at the beautiful figure in the distant woods. He nodded silently and said nothing more, and the matter was settled.
Zuan was already worried that his qualifications had been exposed and he could no longer hide, so he was naturally happy to see them come to this conclusion and didn't argue.
"A crow is still a crow; it can't become a phoenix even if it flies to the top of a branch." Hong Xingying came up to him, snorted, and turned to leave, as if saying another word to him would lower his own status.
Having put his mind at ease, Zu An was too lazy to argue with him and said directly to Cheng Shouping, "I'm going into school. Go back by yourself."
"Young Master, did I say something wrong just now?" Cheng Shouping asked somewhat nervously.
Zuan chuckled and patted him on the shoulder: "No, no, that's exactly what I was thinking."
Cheng Shouping immediately beamed with joy: "Young master, you're so good to me."
Zuan immediately pushed him away: "Speak properly, and don't be so gay in the future."
At this time, a staff member came over and led them into the school. On the way, the staff member reminded them: "There are magic arrays running around the school. Although they are mainly to prevent foreign enemies from invading, you should not run around randomly to avoid triggering the magic arrays and encountering danger."
Zuan clicked his tongue in amazement. Fortunately, he hadn't officially entered the school area yesterday, otherwise he would have triggered countless magic arrays. He just didn't know what the magic arrays in this world were like. Could they be like the kind of arrays that Huang Yaoshi, the Eastern Heretic, set up on Peach Blossom Island?
"How dangerous could it be?" Zuan asked tentatively.
"You'll find out later," the staff member replied with a half-smile, as if he had seen through his thoughts.
Next, we walked through a large open space that looked a bit like the playground of my school in my previous life, but what was more eye-catching was a group of boys squatting in a row on the ground.
"Squat down properly, let's see if you dare to be late again!" A middle-aged man held a ruler and glared fiercely at the group of teenagers on the ground.
The middle-aged man was balding on top, a typical case of male pattern baldness. However, he stubbornly combed the hair on both sides horizontally to cover the bald spot in the middle. Unfortunately, there wasn't much hair on the sides either, so the hair in the middle was so sparse that his scalp was clearly visible.
As if sensing his gaze, the middle-aged man turned around and glared at Zu An: "What are you looking at!"
Oh, my temper!
Zuan was immediately indignant and was about to retort when the boy next to him, called Wei Suo... oh no, Wei Suo, hurriedly came over and tugged at his sleeve: "You absolutely mustn't offend him!"
Zuan was taken aback and couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong? Is he very powerful?"
Weissau lowered his voice and said, "That man is Rude, the dean of students at our school. He's nicknamed 'Bright Peak.' He's usually the strictest with students. Did you see him hit a student with that ruler?"
“I saw it.” Zuan noticed a student being hit with a ruler and was crying loudly, and answered subconsciously.
"That ruler has the character 'virtue' engraved on it, so he usually calls himself 'winning people over with virtue' when disciplining his students. Getting hit by that thing hurts more than the 'wailing whip' of the second young lady of the Chu family. He's not the teacher who was just guarding the gate; he has a lot of power. You must not mess with him," Wei Su warned.
"What era are we living in? Corporal punishment is still in vogue!" Zu'an complained. "Isn't anyone going to do anything about it?"
"Keep your voice down, keep your voice down." Wei Suo hurriedly covered his mouth in fright. "Besides the principal, he's the most powerful person in the school. Who would dare to discipline a sixth-rank expert like him? Besides, there are many cultivators in the academy, and they are all arrogant and prone to causing trouble. They need a powerful expert like him to suppress them, and the authorities tacitly approve of this."
Zu An said "Oh," and then asked curiously, "Didn't you just start school? How do you know so much? You even know about the Chu family's second young lady's 'Wailing Whip'?"
"Of course, I had to gather information before coming," Weisuo said smugly. As if sensing the admiration in the other's eyes, he felt a surge of pride and nudged Weisuo's shoulder. "Do you know the top ten beauties in our school's list of female beauties?"
