Chapter 100: Halt, your mother is a maid!

The plan for the day lies in the morning!

Li Zhangsheng did not have the habit of lingering in bed; after taking care of his own needs and those of his Demon Pet, he slowly left the Number One Courtyard.

Today, he would head to his class to attend the first public foundation course.

Just as the name implies, the various Instructors would take turns teaching, focusing primarily on explaining basic knowledge, aiming to strengthen the students' foundations.

Battle Academy Grade One, Class 1!

Only students who ranked in the top one hundred during the assessment could become members of this class.

Before even entering the classroom, Li Zhangsheng heard a clamorous noise and saw students in twos and threes whispering and discussing animatedly.

Just as Li Zhangsheng was preparing to find any empty seat, Zhang Yi suddenly took the initiative to call out to him: "Changsheng, there is an empty seat over here!"

As a member of the Second-tier Students and holding the status of the youngest son of the Pengcheng Zhang Clan leader, Zhang Yi was naturally one of the focal points of the class.

In the class, there was no shortage of social climbers among the new students, including some of the best among them; they wanted to get on good terms with Zhang Yi, and the best way was naturally to become his desk mate.

Being a desk mate makes it easier to deepen the relationship between each other!

Unfortunately, while Zhang Yi appeared amiable on the surface, he was actually proud at heart; he looked down on classmates inferior to himself and naturally ignored them.

To avoid offending Zhang Yi, they did not dare to forcibly occupy the seat, so the seat next to Zhang Yi remained empty.

Until this moment, they finally understood Zhang Yi's intentions, which made them curious while also glaring at Li Zhangsheng.

Who is he?

What virtue or ability does he have to be valued by Zhang Yi?

"Morning, Zhang Yi!"

Li Zhangsheng ignored the gazes of his classmates, walked straight to Zhang Yi, and after exchanging greetings, plopped down into the seat next to him.

In this class, the person he was most familiar with was Zhang Yi, followed by Yuan Yongyan, who shared the same Instructor.

As for

The other three members of the Li Clan Four Heroes were not in the same class as him due to their grades and academy arrangements.

Of course, there was another reason.

With Zhang Yi as a foil, Li Zhangsheng's already high charm was invisibly enhanced significantly; this is like the main reason why many beautiful women always make best friends with ugly women.

According to Li Zhangsheng's observation, he was the most charming male in the class, while Zhang Yi was the exact opposite, ranking last in charm, especially since he had an exceptionally conspicuous Thunder God Mouth...

After settling the seating issue, Li Zhangsheng went straight to the point: "Zhang Yi, do you know who lives in the Liu Hao Ting Yuan?"

Know yourself and know your enemy, and you will never be defeated!

If the new student in the Liu Hao Ting Yuan had successfully broken through, they would very likely become his main opponent; he had to collect as much information about the other party as possible so as not to be completely in the dark, and Zhang Yi was undoubtedly the best candidate.

"You mean Luo Jie? His family is also a County Gentry, but they primarily focus on business; the Luo Clan Trading Firm is one of the largest trading firms in our Langya Kingdom, possessing great wealth and power. By the way, why are you looking for him?"

Zhang Yi looked surprised, unable to understand Li Zhangsheng's purpose.

"He might have completed a breakthrough. By the way, are you familiar with him?"

Li Zhangsheng did not hide it; if Luo Jie had successfully broken through, this news would not be hidden for long.

Zhang Yi was sharp-minded; after just a moment of thought, he roughly guessed Li Zhangsheng's idea, but he did not hold back and told him everything he knew about Luo Jie.

Because they were not familiar enough, Zhang Yi's understanding of Luo Jie was relatively one-sided, knowing only some basic information, and he could not provide Li Zhangsheng with more help.

"After class, I will go help you inquire about it!"

Zhang Yi appeared warm-hearted, but he actually had his own motives; firstly, it was to befriend Li Zhangsheng, and secondly, if Luo Jie really became a Second-Rank Beast Master, it would pose a strong threat to his own status.

Just at this moment, a new student entered the classroom right on time; he was a handsome youth with fair skin, a figure as straight as a spear, a frivolous look in his eyes, dressed in silver cloud-patterned brocade robes, holding a folding fan, giving people the feeling of a graceful young master in a dirty world.

"Look, that's Luo Jie!" Zhang Yi pursed his lips toward the other party; he did not like Luo Jie, and the reason was simple: Luo Jie's family was also a County Gentry, and they had a competitive relationship with the Zhang Family.

"He really did break through!" Li Zhangsheng sensed it; because he had just completed the breakthrough, Luo Jie's Mental Power was not restrained.

"Eh, this is... Second Rank!"

"Strange, weren't there only three?"

"I know him, he is Luo Jie, one of the heirs of the Luo Clan Trading Firm; from the feeling, he seems to have just broken through as well!"

Many sensitive new students noticed Luo Jie's abnormality and could not help but discuss it; for a time, Luo Jie became the focus.

Amidst the discussions of the crowd, Luo Jie narrowed his eyes and tilted his head slightly; he was high-profile and flamboyant, liking to be the focus of everyone.

Luo Jie did not immediately enter the class; after observing for a moment, he walked straight to Yuan Yongyan and asked softly: "This classmate, could you please give up your seat to me?"

Yuan Yongyan's desk mate was none other than Zhao Shuyi!

While speaking, Luo Jie seemingly gracefully opened his folding fan, and one could see the eight characters written on the fan face: "The graceful lady, a gentleman's good match."

Ever since seeing Zhao Shuyi, Luo Jie had been amazed; Zhao Shuyi was already very outstanding and was born into a Noble Family, which made Luo Jie keep her in his heart and develop the idea of pursuing Zhao Shuyi.

His first step in the plan was to become Zhao Shuyi's desk mate, so as to be near the water to enjoy the moonlight first.

Yuan Yongyan looked up at Luo Jie; she did not speak, nor did she have any intention of getting up, still sitting there quietly.

She was also a heaven-gifted talent, one of the top ten in the new student assessment.

Looking at Zhao Shuyi on the side, her personality was very straightforward; she liked to be direct and did not like to beat around the bush, always saying what was on her mind; one could see her eyes filled with malice as she lightly scolded: "Get lost!"

While Zhao Shuyi was speaking, the White Fox in her arms raised its head; it looked at Luo Jie, its eyes revealing a human-like contempt, not putting Luo Jie in its eyes at all.

As is the master, so is the Demon Pet!

Most importantly, it did not smell a threatening aura.

Because of Luo Jie's actions, this place naturally became the focus of the class, so upon hearing Zhao Shuyi's words, everyone stopped talking and revealed a look of watching a good show.

Luo Jie was clearly stunned for a moment, the smile on his face instantly stiffening; Zhao Shuyi's reaction clearly exceeded his expectations, and when he saw the White Fox's contemptuous gaze, he was even more furious.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, he could not leave dejectedly; he had to win back a round, otherwise, he would lose all face.

"Too bullying!" This was the portrayal of Luo Jie's inner thoughts; he had never suffered such a big loss since he grew up.

Ring-a-ling~

Just at this moment, the class bell rang, and an Instructor arrived in the classroom right on time.

This was a female Instructor, around thirty years old, though her actual age might be a bit older; she wore a lady's outfit, had a beautiful face, and a gentle temperament, and she was none other than the Fifth Rank female Instructor—He Yan!

The first class would be taught by He Yan.

Due to her excellent appearance and temperament, coupled with her powerful strength, He Yan was very popular among the new students.

During the Instructor selection session yesterday, many male new students wanted to become He Yan's students, but unfortunately, He Yan had very high requirements, and on top of that, she only accepted female students, so they could be said to be greatly disappointed.

Due to the angle, Luo Jie did not see He Yan, but hearing the class bell, a sense of urgency grew in his heart; he had to make a decision immediately to turn the situation around.

Without hesitation, Luo Jie closed his folding fan again, and then immediately opened it again; for some reason, the characters on the fan face changed, from "A fair lady, a gentleman's good match" to "Bah, you slave-born wench!"

You slave-born wench!

Although born into a Noble Family, Zhao Shuyi's status within the clan was not very high, which was mainly related to her mother; her mother was originally the Clan Leader's personal maid and only became a concubine after giving birth to Zhao Shuyi.

Even though Zhao Shuyi's talent was higher than her peers in the clan, due to her insufficient status in the family, Zhao Shuyi had to choose Yuanling Academy instead of the Royal Academy, the head of the Four Great Academies.

After silently delivering the harsh words, Luo Jie glanced triumphantly at Zhao Shuyi, whose face had turned livid, and began to look around, wanting to find a seat to sit down.

Only at this moment did Luo Jie belatedly see Instructor He Yan; he was suddenly panicked and subconsciously closed his Thousand Mechanism Fan, wanting to destroy the "evidence," but before Luo Jie could act, he was like someone hit by an Immobilization Technique, his body completely unable to move, his raised right foot unable to be put down, as if he had turned into a wooden statue, standing motionless in a one-legged stance, with only his eyes able to move, and for a moment his gaze was filled with panic!
