Rankings

"Most special class candidates are those from the big families of each city. There were also three students who were able to defeat an instructor. This includes the young lady's friend."

"Oh? That brat's friend? Which one of her friends is it?" The principal asked

"Someone with the name of Mu Yue, she got first place on the test of will power. She is a blue spirit root with ice affinity."The assistant said while passing Mu Yue's information to the principal.

The principal then read the words on the paper and was impressed, "This girl is just an orphan yet can match those from the rich families. This should be a new friend of that brat. There should be someone who taught this girl or else it is impossible for her to achieve what she has now."

"Hmm… Try to check the details on how can someone adopt a child. This girl has a lot of potential and will surely attract the attention of those families. She should not waste time on family politics and focus on cultivation. Keep an eye on her and report to me. If she has what it takes, I don't mind adopting her."

Meanwhile, Xiao Yan and Mu Yue have met each other after the trials ended. It would take some time for the school to finalize each student's total score and distribute them to different classes.

"Xiao Yan, how did your test go?" Mu Yue asked. Although they have only been friends for a while, she could tell that Xiao Yan is currently in a bad mood.

"I wasn't able to defeat the instructor. I ran out of energy resulting in my loss." Xiao Yan said. She then added, "My gut feeling tells me that there should be someone who wants to mess with me. I'll be sure to take revenge."

Mu Yue saw Xiao Yan's unique smile and thought 'That someone will surely have a bad time.' She then said, "Then I'll help you on your revenge on anyway I can."

"Thank you, Mu Yue. What about the result of your test?"

"I was able to defeat the instructor. However, he only fought me using his sword skill and did not use any sword techniques."

"That is already impressive. It should be rare for a new student to defeat an instructor even with those handicaps." Xiao Yan praised.

After some time, the school posted the top 100 rankings of each student.

"All of those whose name is on the list will be on the elite class. Those that have their name underlined will be part of the special class. The students that are in the special class were chosen according to their potential with the scores of the trials as a reference. Old students that are high ranking may not be chosen. " A teacher explained.

Xiao Yan and Mu Yue went to see the list. They first look at the top 10 as they were sure they did well on their tests.

"Mu Yue, you achieved first place while I only got 4th place. I guess that loss on the combat test affected my score. At least we are both in the special class."

"Those on the 2nd and 3rd place should be the students who defeated their instructors right?" Mu Yue asked.

"Mhm, it should be. Those two are both males and you as a girl placed higher than them. You will surely attract the boys' attention." Xiao Yan teased.

"Huh? Why?"

Xiao Yan looked at the confused Mu Yue and just said, "Nothing!" before thinking 'I should teach her about this matter, this will be fun."

Mu Yue saw Xiao Yan smile and felt a chill down her spine.

"There are 7 students that will go to the special class. Fortunately the bitch and the bastard are not there or else we won't enjoy our school life." Xiao Yan said happily.

"They reached the top 25. I guess being part of the rich family will still make you better than the rest." Mu Yue said.

"The teachers will now guide you all to your dorms. You will have a dorm that matches what classes you will attend. Further details will be mentioned by the principal at tomorrow's ceremony."

They then walked towards the dorm. The dorm was a building that has two floors. Mu Yue was amazed at the size of the dorm.

"There are ten bedrooms in the building. The boys will occupy the rooms on the bottom floor while the girls will have the top floor."

"Is it possible for us two to share a room?" Xiao Yan asked.

"There should be no problem since you are of the same gender. You just have to move the bed. The rooms are big enough to accommodate two people."

Xiao Yan smiled at this and proceeded to go to the second floor with Mu Yue.
