Law Of Creation

[Maybe they were the instructor of the Academy?] Mingyue wondered as she was looking at some middle-aged people and elderly in front of the student.

Currently, we were inside a spacious hall. They call this place student's hall. There were some middle-aged people and elderly in front of us, standing on the stage.

Mingyue stood beside Fangfang. Yup standing, we were all standing in this lesson. But, rather than lesson, it was more like the Academy's introduction toward the new students. And now, all the students were forced to listen everything what they wanted to say.

[Mostly, the people on the stage were talking about Academy's regulation. I had heard most of them from Mom, so I was bored currently.]

Fangfang still had her serious looking face, while Linlin and Xiao Lin were whispering and giggling to each other. Both of them got closer too fast.

[No! I was not envious. I could talk to Xiao Jing, but she currently was sleeping on my bad. I felt bad if I had to disturb her resting time, while usually Xiao Lin always disturbed her.] Mingyue justified herself.

"Okay, that is mostly what you need to do and what you must not do in Academy. While there is a merit, there is also punishment. Us, from Academy, allowing all of you to be here is already a big merit. So, if any of you create a mess in Academy, the punishment will not be light. There is no need to explain about the punishment, but when there was someone breaking the rule here, all of you will know." Said by a middle-aged man with buff body and glaring face.

[Fortunately, Fangfang would not glare at me anymore as her glaring face is kind of similar with this buff middle-aged man.]

"Okay that is mostly for Academy regulation. There might be another addition to regulation in the future, but we will inform you later. Now let's move to the next topic. As your purpose for entering Academy, education is a must. Hence, the education in Academy was divided into two, basic education like reading, writing, calculating, and mannerism. And other education, like combat class, spirit class, spell class, physical class, and many more.

For some of you, I believed some of you have received that basic education even before entering Academy. That's why Academy will grant an access, to skip that basic education. Of course, no one wishes to repeat a boring class, right?" An elderly took over from that buff and glaring old man.

[Well, this elderly really understood my mind. It is true that I don't want to waste my time for something I knew already.]

"Hence, for those who wished to skip this basic education must be tested." The elderly said slowly as if he was throwing a bait to the students.

"Tested?"

"Why is it has to be a test? I never hear it!"

"My parents told me that I could skip that basic education immediately, why is it had to be another test?"

"Hey, isn't it cheating to skip basic education?"

"All I wanted is to learn spirit and became a mighty warrior, who cares about a stupid thing like reading."

"Yeah that's right. it's not like writing is an important thing."

A bunch of imm.a.t.u.r.e voices could be heard in the hall. A lot of the students were protesting because they were baited by the elderly in front of them. Seeing that elderly's calm face, looks like he was expecting the same reaction every year.

"SILENCE PLEASE." Suddenly a loud voice could be heard as if the one who talked right beside Mingyue's ear. But after seeing the reaction of the people around her, included Fangfang, Xiao Lin and Linlin, they experienced the same thing as Mingyue.

[Is this one of the Elemental usages?] Mingyue was interested a little.

"As what I have said, those who wish to skip basic education, they have to take those test. Of course, it doesn't have to be now.

If any of you little kids feel that basic foundation is not that useful, we are fine with it.

Maybe some of you are planning to not entering any of those basic education's class, we, the teachers here will not force any of you." The elderly continued his words with a kind expression. But Mingyue could see a glint of mischief flashed on the elderly's eyes.

"What? Is it allowed?"

"Then why is there such a need for those useless classes?"

"Okay, I will only come to combat class."

Many student's muttering could be heard. Well looking at that elderly face, he was clearly waiting for these kinds of reaction.

[What a bully. . .] Mingyue felt pity for the tricked student.

"Of course those who didn't finish their basic education, will not be allowed to become Advanced Learning's student." That elderly finally dropped his bomb.

Seeing tense face around Mingyue, include Fangfang, Linlin, and Xiaolin's face, she just smiled faintly.

"In this Academy, there is no such things called useless people. There are only an ignorant people. Are any of you one of that ignorant people?" This elderly's smile became wider and wider from seeing our expression.

[Excluding me obviously. It is only a cheap trick.] Mingyue just closed her eyes as she was thinking to take the basic education's test.

…

"What! You want to take those basic education's test?" Three of them exclaimed after Mingyue told them about Mingyue's plan to take the basic education's test as soon as possible.

[Well, of course, they would be surprised. It is only the first day but I am already taking the basic education's test.] Mingyue didn't have any reaction to their big reaction after she told her roommates about her plan.

"Yup. Based on the result of my Ceremony of Acknowledgement, my connection with spirit is kind of weak." Mingyue made up her excuse. "That's why my parent taught me about that basic education earlier. They wished that I am focusing on spirit class."

"Che. . . how could you, the smallest of us, be the first to apply that test." Xiao Lin sulked after heard my excuse.

[I am sorry for being small, but I AM NOT SMALL] Mingyue rolled her eyes, but she didn't refute Xiao Lin's word as she didn't care about a little kid's word.

"Ahahahaha, sorry Xiao Lin. But I believed that you would be able to apply that test as soon as possible" Mingyue consoled Xiao Lin.

[From three of them, Xiao Lin was the only one good with reading, while Linlin was good at calculating. Fangfang was the only one that I worried.] Mingyue remembered their story from these three days.

"But I didn't expect this one month would be a very busy month for us." Linlin said with a blank face.

"Un. . . I feared my body would not be able to hold" Mingyue fell into the pool of despair as she remembered the lesson's schedule.

The schedule in this Academy was repeated every ten days. The physical class would fill the first half day, from day one until day eight. Basic education class and spirit class would fill the second half day alternatively, from day one until day eight. Of course, there was lunchtime between two classes. Day nine and ten is a free time.

For the people that were allowed to skip basic education, from the basic education's test, of course, their basic education class would be changed into four basic elements class.

[And all of this iss scheduled for this month was fixed. Really scary. . .] Mingyue unconsciously shivered as she remembered the class that she had to attend.

"Even though you could skip those basic education class, we would go to physical class together. With your small body, could you survive this ordeal?" Fangfang asked with concern.

"Nah, it's okay. I just needed to barely pass it, it would be fine." Mingyue smiled as her answer.

[No one could force me to train my body. My body is delicate you know?]

[I just wanted to focus on spirit related matter, so these physical things aren't necessary.] Mingyue was justifying herself for her weak body.

"Why? We should work hard together and passed it with good marks. Don't just barely pass it, you little girl. . ." Xiao Lin held my hand while tried to convince Mingyue.

[Please no, little girl. No need to tempt me as my heart is steeled. I couldn't expend my effort in physical things. I. DID. NOT. WANT. TO. That's it. Case closed.]

"Betrayer!" Xiao Lin sulked as she failed to trick Mingyue.

Mingye just smiled awkwardly after seeing Xiao Lin's defeated appearance.

At the end of the conversation, Mingyue went to rest early because she wanted to take basic education test tomorrow.
