“Surprisingly, three new students from the Inferior Compound pa.s.sed the test this year?! That was truly unexpected.”
The teacher tabulating the test data held the file in his hand. His face was filled with stupefaction. “The previous year’s reports are still here. In all previous cases, new students from the Inferior Compound who scored enough to pa.s.s had chosen ancillary specialties. Unlike how it is this year, where they broke through both martial qi and divination. It really is a miracle!
Some people completely didn’t care, “It’s nothing but a one time fluke. Look at this. There was also one person whose opponent threw away the match. It didn’t even say clearly how.”
“Then how should we dole out the award?”
The teachers were sitting on the wooden chairs, one person looking at another, the other looking back again while stroking their white beards.They didn’t know how to make their decision.
In the end, they could only fix their gazes at the teacher from the Superior Compound.
After all, if they started handing out awards, then the winners were supposed to directly enter the Superior Compound. However, now…..jumping from the Inferior Compound directly into the Superior Compound was a situation that had never been seen before.
“I propose that we cancel the award this time.” The one who opened his mouth was the main teacher responsible for Qi Cultivation courses at the Superior Compound. He pulled a long face and solemnly stated, “We shouldn’t allow students who are in fact unqualified, to enter our Superior Compound, just because of one lucky stroke. Princ.i.p.al, you are the princ.i.p.al of the academy. Even the young ones should understand. If we hand out the award like this, it’s very possible that it’ll lead to dissatisfaction within those from other compounds. Moreover, the students who were selected into the Superior Compound by White Academy in previous years had all been selected very carefully. In the future, they might very well be selected by the War Spirit Forces. We can’t just casually arrange for three students to enter like this. It’ll destroy our standards.”
Tusu Feng calmly listened and raised his hand to hold the teacup. His voice was level as he said, “I thought White Academy’s standard was to keep our promises?”
His expression didn’t change one bit. The corners of his mouth even contained a gentle hint of a smile, but an oppressive feeling directly hit on one’s face, which made all of the teachers feel a tremendously fierce pressure.
The teachers still sitting of course were not willing to see the princ.i.p.al and the teachers at the Superior Compound be in conflict over this kind of matter, and hastily interposed, “The award still must be given. It’s just that what Master Li Yan said also wasn’t completely without reason. Princ.i.p.al, what do you think of the following? Those three Inferior Compound students up until now still haven’t purchased their necessary supplies for entering the academy. How about we directly award each of them one set. This can also be considered as resolving one of their problems.”
The proposal was very compromising. The Superior Compound’s Master Li Yan naturally agreed. Humph, having him yield to a bunch of merely small characters who didn’t have any power or influence. It probably won’t be of any benefit to him in the future. Giving them clothes was all a waste.
Tusu Feng didn’t say much of anything, and only curved his thin lips. The corners of his mouth carried a bit of devilishness. Sooner or later there’ll be one day when these people would regret their decision today. He reckoned that no matter what, they wouldn’t be able to imagine that between the three Inferior Compound students who, according to them, depended on luck to win, one was the current administration’s young genius High Priest, and another one was the Third Prince that they would give their life to win over, Baili Jia Jue!
Noon. All instructors and students gathered at the commerce plaza to announce the testing results.
Concerning the matter of not being able to enter the Superior Compound, a certain Highness, after hearing the news, didn’t even have the slightest reaction. The side of his grave and stern face displayed a curve that was a smile yet not a smile. He appeared indescribably handsome and seductively cold.
Nangong Lie, on the other hand, lamented the missed opportunity, “I heard that there were a lot more girls at the Superior Compound. I had really wanted to go and check it out a bit.”
Wei Wei’s expression was difficult for people to figure out. The light in her eyes were rather sombre. The teacherss even thought that she wasn’t satisfied with the academy’s arrangement and was just about to say something when they heard her voice clearly ask, “Couldn’t
these clothes be exchanged for money?”
The teachers:…..
“Ha Ha, ha Ha ha. Ah Jue, look at these old guys’ expressions. It’s too funny!” Nangong Lie almost collapsed from laughing. Just how much did this young lady from the Helian family actually love money, uhm, making those teachers stunned and speechless. Interesting. Truly interesting!”
“So these are the people from the Inferior Compound. It indeed is seeing is believing.” The person sitting next to Nangong Lie coldly snorted. A mocking smile was smeared on his egotistical looking handsome face. He wore an ethnic silver robe and around his waist hung ornaments which appeared more expensive compared those other people wore. When she stood to receive the awards, Wei Wei could clearly feel the waves of qi on his body. As she brushed past, she saw that person speaking in a voice without the slightest bit of warmth, “Don’t think just because you’ve defeated those defective things from the Fine Compound that you really have no other opponent in the world. You guys are still greatly inferior!”
