Finally arriving at my dorm room after going through orientation, the auction, and that scary encounter with Principal Irani, I stopped dead in my tracks as I stared at the luxurious paradise that was my dorm room that made all the shit I went through today worth it.
There was a black and red circular bed with velvet pillow and sheets of the same color, a black curtain that was above the bed and was able to cover the entire area of the bed in a full 360. A fireplace that was behind the bed warmed the room, the lighting was dim due to it being nighttime right now but it was giving off 'those' types of vibes and there were four windows with their shutters open which gave me the best view of the city I had ever seen in my life. The skyscrapers and towers lit up the city and AVs were flying everywhere and the neon billboards and stars in the sky just made the view look perfect.
A/N: I don't really know how to explain it but if you have been in the situation before then you know the vibes I'm talking about. Best moments of my life I swear.
Taking in view that for a second made me forget why I was even here and had me wishing I could just watch this view forever, I snapped myself out of it and began to ponder over what would happen this week.
The entire academy knows that I am now part of the Seven Blessed from Heaven and that there is pretty much a bounty on my head for the entire first week of school so I should expect challenges coming at my head nonstop. The best thing for me to do would be to make an example out of the first opponent I see but that could cause trouble since even though background doesn't really mean much here, that doesn't mean the person still can't use it to give me trouble in the academy. Killing Zantar is already going to put the academy in serious hot water, if I kill someone before I can even do that, who knows what will happen, shit Zantar might even drop out. after all, I did threaten him today.
Honestly, I don't even know why the empress is even giving this to me? Wouldn't it make more sense to give this challenge to Kellian and Talia? They are her disciples, after all, it would be the perfect way to temper them and find out their strengths and weaknesses.
Ridding myself of these pointless thoughts I took my shower and headed to bed. What's done is done, all I have to do now is decide what powers I should reveal or not. Using my daos would not be the best move right now, the year has just started and since all seven of us will be going through these challenges I know for sure the upperclassmen will be watching all this go down, wherever they are. It would be best to just use my elements, fire and lightning would be the best choice since it would be unecessary to reveal my katana.
Pulling out the katana from my soul I stared at the runes that I still couldn't understand as they glowed with a scarlet light that lit up the whole room. I have no clue what this thing really is, but I am very interested in where the answers will lead me.
Putting the sword back in my soul space I closed my eyes and went to sleep.

I woke up to the alarm of my holocube and was greeted by the beautiful sunrise that graced the academy ground. As I took in the morning horizon I couldn't help but be a little bummed out at my empty bed.
I really need some bitches and get my dick wet. Maybe I should take Lian Taiyang up on her offer, after all, it's not like anybody is willing to jump straight into my bed at this moment. They are probably waiting until the week is over before they make any moves.
Getting up from my bed and putting on a black assassin robe, I made my way to the teleportation formation in the corner of my room and went straight to the floor where my first class would be. My schedule was pretty light as all I had was formation and circles, I've always wanted to learn formations but my father and Treysin refused to teach me, saying that I was too young although I completely didn't believe that bullshit as they probably didn't want to reveal their secrets to me but I couldn't blame them. My comprehension defied all reasoning and I was learning everything I could at the Kenji house so, of course, they would get a little scared.
Circles was a class that almost everyone wanted to take since it was a crucial part of combat when you reach the higher stages of cultivation. Circles were powerful spells that were made up of daos and elements and could do insane damage, but there were two types of people who use circles, those with emblems and those without emblems.
Those who don't have them were heavily limited as they were not able to use a circle to its full potential and were heavily limited to the amount they could use. There was a way to get around this but this secret was heavily guarded by the royals so it was almost impossible to get. The ones with emblems were broken as they could cast spells instantly and could do them unlimitedly, there was simply no comparison, you either had an emblem or you didn't and had to create a heavily watered down version. Basically, the emblem users had Ralph Lauren and the rest had USPA
A/N: No hate to USPA tho lol
I could've awakened my emblem a while ago but I wanted to surprise myself and see the one I would awaken with. There were many types of emblems and they could all do different things, so while due to my race I could have anyone I want, I wanted to see the one that I originally have.
Walking towards the door of my circles class I took a deep breath and stared at the door for a while.
"This is one of the most popular classes in the academy. There will for sure be a lot of familiar faces and there are spars where you can only specifically use circles, I know for a fact that I will get challenged multiple times here. It's a shame really, these fools don't know that they have no hope of winning."
Taking a step forward the door slid open and what I saw was a massive dojo that gave me a ninja aesthetic with the mostly black but sometimes gold interior, I found it really enjoyable but all of that was dashed away as soon as I saw the people in my class as they stared at me as Zantar would after finding a defenseless woman in the night.
"You gotta be fucking kidding me, just how bad can y'all luck get."
