Academy Life

Teacher Wala taught the Laws of Wood and Space at Jia 312 Academy.

"As members of the Dongdi Clan with superior bloodlines, you already grasped a trace of the Laws from the moment you were born. But don't let that make you complacent. The Primordial Laws are vast and profound..."

Zuolong, sitting below, was still a newborn with a child's temperament. Before long, he started scratching his head and looking around.

He eyed the imposing, blood-red battle armor Teacher Wala wore onstage, then secretly sent Feng Hui a voice transmission.

"Feng Hui, look. Teacher Wala really is a mid-tier god. His armor looks so much more imposing than the other teachers'."

Feng Hui smiled but said nothing.

A mid-tier god was a Marquis-level Immortal God in the Prime Universe, a powerful Immortal with an Undying Body.

Such a being could easily serve as the head of a Cosmic Kingdom's branch within the Virtual Universe Company, wielding tremendous authority and boundless power.

And yet, here he was, teaching a group of children who had only recently been born in a kindergarten academy. Many of them didn't even know to appreciate it.

They had no idea how many Human Race geniuses in the Prime Universe would envy them and burn with jealousy.

But there was no helping it. Immortal Gods lived forever, and the Holy Land Universe had no limit of three Reincarnation Eras. Over the endless years, the Eastern Emperor Holy Land Universe had accumulated who knew how many Immortal Gods.

So here, even a "kindergarten teacher" could be a Marquis-level Immortal.

Still, that worked out well for Feng Hui. Unlike Zuolong, he knew how to appreciate the opportunity.

Feng Hui's other clone was a Peerless Genius who had risen to prominence in the Human Race's Peak Genius War. Although he was only a Doomsday Secret Realm Member at the very bottom of the Core Layer, that still placed him among the top thousand in the entire universe, with a solid foundation and deep reserves of knowledge.

What's more, the human Feng Hui had originally been best at the Law of Wood, but he had never had a good teacher to guide him. Teacher Wala's explanations of the Law of Wood were like rain from heaven. Feng Hui soaked them up like a sponge, eagerly absorbing every word.

"All right, that's the end of today's lesson. When you get back, take some time to think over what I've taught you."

Teacher Wala finished the lesson, swept his gaze across Lecture District Hall 4, and finally settled on Feng Hui. "Feng Hui, come with me."

"Yes, Teacher!"

Feng Hui's heart stirred. Under Zuolong's envious gaze, he followed Teacher Wala away.

"Good day, Teacher Wala!"

"Hello, Teacher!"

On the way, groups of students stopped to greet Teacher Wala. At the same time, they cast curious glances at Feng Hui, who was walking behind him, making Feng Hui feel thoroughly uncomfortable.

"Boming, do you know who that person following Teacher Wala is?" one student whispered in a voice transmission.

"I think he's a newborn who just joined the academy. His name's Feng Hui."

A Dongdi Clan student with a black horn on his forehead narrowed his eyes and stared coldly at Feng Hui as he followed Teacher Wala.

"This is the first time Teacher Wala's taken a student aside, isn't it? Before, he'd always leave on his own after class. He was cold toward all the students," another student said.

"Honestly, Boming, you're so outstanding, yet Teacher Wala hasn't taken a special interest in you. I wonder how this Feng Hui managed to earn his favor."

Teacher Wala's room didn't look very large, but once he opened the door, Feng Hui found himself facing an immense, luxurious space. He was left speechless.

"Haha, it's nothing special, just an ordinary little world. Once you become a World Lord, you'll naturally learn how to create one."

Seeing Feng Hui's expression, Teacher Wala couldn't help laughing.

Feng Hui couldn't help feeling embarrassed. He had read the original novel, so he knew that World Lords could create worlds.

But a description in a book was only words. Seeing a real little world right before him was an experience no book could ever match.

Teacher Wala sat down beneath a wondrous great tree.

"Do you know why I asked you to come here?"

Feng Hui shook his head.

"I've been observing you for a while. You're different from the other children. Out of all the students who listen to my lectures, you're by far the most attentive. If I'm not mistaken, you've already made considerable progress in comprehending the Law of Wood, haven't you?"

Feng Hui was startled. To keep anyone from discovering that he had already developed a decent level of comprehension of the Law of Wood at birth, he had been very careful to conceal it, pretending to be just like any newborn Dongdi Clan child. He was terrified that the Dongdi Clan experts might notice something was amiss.

If they discovered he wasn't really a member of the Dongdi Clan, this clone would be done for.

But he had never imagined that Teacher Wala could judge his level of Law Comprehension just from the way he listened in class.

"Relax. There's no need to feel pressured or worried."

Teacher Wala smiled. "I've taught countless children over the years. Quite a few of them had outstanding talent for comprehending the Laws, just like you."

"So don't worry just because you're different from the other children. You're not a monster. Geniuses are simply different from everyone else. A genius is someone who can do what others cannot, and deserves better training."

Listening to Teacher Wala, Feng Hui felt awkward. The way Teacher Wala put it sounded just like a kindergarten teacher comforting a child.

He understood now. Teacher Wala had called him over because he thought Feng Hui was a genius among the children and wanted to guide and train him, not because he had noticed anything suspicious.

Teacher Wala casually plucked two apple-like fruits from the tree and tossed one to Feng Hui.

"Go ahead and eat. Jade Spirit Fruits are little more than a snack to me, but they'll do you a world of good, little Cosmic Level fellow."

As he spoke, he took a bite, biting off nearly half the fruit with a crunch.

Hearing this, Feng Hui took the fruit and bit into it. A rush of extraordinarily pure energy surged through his body. His eyes lit up, and he quickly devoured the entire fruit in a few bites.

A vast amount of life-force energy poured into his body. Every cell hungrily devoured it. Each surge of energy was swallowed up as soon as it entered his body, and the process continued without pause.

Several hours later, Feng Hui's Dongdi Clan clone had advanced from Cosmic Level First Rank to Universe Level Fourth Rank.

When Feng Hui came back to his senses, Teacher Wala was standing in front of him, watching.

"Not bad! Feng Hui, remember this: advancing from Cosmic Level First Rank to Ninth Rank is simply an accumulation of quantity, not a leap in life-form. You're still a long way from becoming an immortal god, and your lifespans are limited. So for a genius, wasting time accumulating energy is a great shame. All geniuses should save their time for comprehending the Primordial Laws, improving their combat strength, and learning secret techniques. Those are the things that matter."

"All right, you can go back now. Remember what I said. Focus on comprehending the Primordial Laws, and come ask me if there's anything you don't understand."

"You're still a long way behind the true Peerless Geniuses of my Dongdi Clan, so you'll need to work harder... I hope to see you get a good result on the academy's end-of-term exam."

"Yes, Teacher. I'll work hard and won't let you down."

Feng Hui left the teacher's room, unable to help sighing to himself.

He never expected that even after transmigrating to the Eastern Emperor Holy Land Universe and becoming a little Dragonman, he still couldn't escape end-of-term exams...

And so Feng Hui's "kindergarten" life at Jia 312 Academy began.
