Chapter 77 Grouping Up 1 (1/2)

Just as the students' noise was at its peak, the doors of the room suddenly opened with a loud bang.

Elder Fang hid his hands in his sleeves as he calmly flew towards the elevated tables of the teachers.

The students immediately quieted down as they scampered towards their own respective seats.

Elder Fang stood on the makeshift stage with grace and prowess as he exhaled loudly.

If it wasn't for the small beads of sweat dripping down his face, the students would've thought that nothing was wrong.

Since the Elder was here, the students immediately stood up and bowed to give their respect.

”Greetings to the Grand Elder!”

The students greeted the Elder with fervor, along with a confused Inna who was forced to follow as per Raghnall's instruction.

Elder Fang released another huge sigh before speaking.

”Everyone please be at ease.”

All the students immediately straightened up and returned to their seats.

”Apologies for the delay. The Headmaster has called me in for an emergency meeting so I was held up for quite some time.”

Seeing the anxious gazes of the students, Elder Fang cleared his throat before continuing.

”But no worries. It does not involve the rest of you. And although we are a bit behind schedule, we will proceed as planned.”

Gazing at the empty plates and trays in the room, Elder Fang proceeded to speak.

”Since all of you have now finished eating, we will proceed to the sacred temple for prayers. As you all know, we normally require students to pray on the seventh hour at every seventh day of the month. But there are also special masses that are granted for special events. One of these special events are what we will be having now which is the initiation of new students entering this school.”

”But before we proceed to the sacred temple, it would be best to proceed in groups to easily monitor the students, to avoid getting lost, and to avoid unruly behavior.”

Hearing this, students sneakily began looking at each other. They began to plan their teams in their heads while some began communicating with their friends through their eyes.

”To ensure that everyone belongs in one, there should be five people in each group. And since it is encouraged for students to mingle and build relationships in this school, I will grant you the liberty to make up your own group.”

As soon as Elder Fang finished speaking, the students began running towards their desired partners. Others began shoving while the rest began kneeling and begging people to be part of their group. The only stationary people were the high class nobles and the known powerful top class students. And that's because they were the ones being pursued by other students.

Inna looked at everyone with a strange smile.

”Well, this is familiar.”

She giggled as she remembered her high school years.

Despite crossing over different worlds, some things never change after all.

Raghnall briefly looked at the few people who were discreetly giving him glances. It seems that they wanted to ask him to be in their group, but were somehow hesitant.

”You'll be part of my group, no objections.” Inna demanded as she grabbed his arm.

Raghnall looked at her with a smirk.

”Aw, I'm finally wanted.”

Inna just simply glared at him in reply then she proceeded to watch the pandemonium taking place right now.
