Ye Chen swept his gaze across the classroom. With only seven people, it felt somewhat empty.
Shrek Academy had detailed records on all of them. Ye Chen had roughly looked them over and learned that, aside from the young couple Zhu Mengying and Yuan Feng, none of the others had any connections beyond being fellow students.
