Chapter 161: The head of the Heavenly Academy

Translator: Misty Cloud Translations Editor: Misty Cloud Translations

The freshmen orientation was a traditional event in the Heavenly Academy.

This was also a great opportunity for the new students to get to know each other.

On the high platform at the square, stood the three masters that were previously involved in the ability assessment.

Old Man Gui You stood at the corner of the high platform squinting his eyes trying to locate Ye Qing Luo’s position among the students.

The moment he found her in the crowd, his eyes widen with excitement as he waved his hand at her.

As a master on the high platform, every student had their eyes fixed on his movements.

Old Man Gui You’s action was naturally seen by many people.

They couldn’t help but looked over the direction of he was waving to.

Their sight was set on Ye Qing Luo.

“Qing Luo, do you find that….. everyone seems to be looking at you….” Liu Xiao Yu who had not faced such a situation before, subconsciously squeezed closer to Ye Qing Luo and gripped tightly onto her arm.

Ye Qing Luo’s hand stiffened instantly.

She had never had such close contact with anyone.

Ye Qing Luo wasn’t accustomed to it, but did not dislike the feeling either: “It’s not as if we are shameful or unpresentable, let them see all they want.”

Liu Xiao Yu was still shy as she lowered her eyelids, her cheeks blushed into a shade of rose pink.

Ye Qing Luo sighed and gently gave a pat on Liu Xiao Yu’s hand.

Immediately she lifted her pair of enchanted eyes, her face sank when she darted an icy cold stare to those who looked over.

That powerful grandeur of her resulted the new students to shrink in fear.

“Ahem, ahem, the head of the school is here! All freshmen, be silent!” The Masters on stage tried to ease the atmosphere in the square.

The sentence was barely finished, a white figure was sighted descending from the sky and landed steadily on the centre of the high platform.

It was an elderly man with white hair over his shoulders, robed tightly in a pure white outfit, revealing only a pair of sharp and shrewd eyes.

The body under the white outfit appeared to be without any skeleton, and the white robe was dangling in the air loosely.

The old man’s hand held onto an agate green coloured cane.

The agate jade on the top of the cane flashed like a current, symbolising his status-

The head of the Heavenly Academy.

His appearance had caught the attention of all the freshmen, and everyone had their eyes set on the platform.

One by one, they stood in tremor as they held their breath fearfully.

This…. was authority.

The kind of authority that would trigger an instinctive reaction from the body.

The entire freshmen area was struck by the silence, it was so quiet that you could literally hear your own breathing clearly.

Even the existing students who were crowding around had the same reaction as the freshmen in the square.

The head of the Heavenly Academy cleared his throat, in a forceful and solemn voice: “I, am the head of this school. Welcome to the Heavenly Academy.”

He halted his speech and the cane in his hand rose.

A squarish stone slab emerged from his forehead.

“Everyone, take out your wooden token and imprint it on the carved area on the stone slate.” A Master came forward and caught the stone slab.

He carried the stone slate and walked down the high platform shortly.

Starting from the first new student, one by one they began to take out the wooden token they received during registration and imprint it on the stone slate.

Each time a wooden token was pressed on it, the slate would emit a glaring ray of light.

The students took turns to press their wooden token onto the slate, the head of the Heavenly Academy continued: “I don’t care about the identity you have outside the school or the class you will be assign to, once you are enrol in the Heavenly Academy, you will have to follow the arrangements the school has made for you.”

“The mission of the Heavenly Academy is to lead all students to become the strongest of the Nirvana Realms and do the continent proud. If you are here merely to show off your abilities or influential powers instead of working hard and progressing forward, then get of out the school right now!”
