The Great Bluebird flew for a day and a night. At night, Great Bluebird feathers automatically wrapped around the person sitting on its back to ensure that no one would fall off while asleep. Over the course of the day, the ten boys gradually grew closer to Mr. Qi.

They discovered that although Mr. Qi seemed aloof, he was actually quite approachable. After some brief conversation, they learned that Mr. Qi's real name was Qi Rou, and that "Mr. "Mr. Qi was a respectful title students used for their teacher, not his actual name.

After entering Great Cloud Mountain Academy, students need to take a test to be assigned to classes. Similarly, the class levels in fantasy novels are also five levels: Heaven, Earth, Profound, and Yellow. That's right, in addition to Heaven, Earth, Profound, and Yellow, there is also a hidden class.

Although it's called a hidden class, there's actually no intention to hide anything, or rather, there's no need to hide anything anymore.

The initial hidden class was a free class run by a few kind-hearted teachers who took in a few homeless children. Because teaching required the use of the academy's resources, these teachers only dared to teach secretly.

However, during a crisis at the school, most of the students ran away, but only a few students from the hidden class stepped forward to help the academy overcome the difficulties. Thus, the hidden class was truly established, which generally took in homeless children and provided them with free education sponsored by the school.

The success rate of each year's hidden class is quite good, and their loyalty to the academy is exceptionally strong, because those students truly have nothing else besides the academy.

They arrived at the Great Cloud Mountain Academy around dawn. As soon as Niu Dingtian landed, they saw a red sun rising in the east. Facing the rising sun, Niu Dingtian and the others, still half asleep, saw that there were already quite a few people doing their morning exercises on a large flat area.

Afterwards, Niu Dingtian and the others were casually arranged to stay somewhere to rest. They were to take the entrance test early the next morning. Just then, a huge red bird flew in from the distance. The bird had three tail feathers that burned with a faint flame.

Qi Rou's expression suddenly turned ugly. Unlike Qi Rou, who carried eleven people, there were only four people on the giant bird. One of them had a livid face and, judging from his clothes, was similar to Qi Rou's, so he should also be a teacher at the Great Cloud Mountain Academy.

The other two were a middle-aged couple, dressed in decent clothes, but they exuded an air of nouveau riche. Between them sat a child of about ten years old, who was vigorously plucking the feathers from the large red bird, occasionally kicking it, and excitedly jumping around on it, shouting, "Hit the bird! Hit the bird!"

The large red bird landed on the open ground. The teacher and the middle-aged couple had already disembarked, but the little brat refused to come down. He kept tearing at the bird's feathers and then pulled out a small knife from somewhere, stabbing it into the bird.

The teacher-looking man couldn't hold back any longer. The large red bird transformed into light and returned to his body, causing the little boy to fall directly from the sky. However, the couple reacted quickly and caught the boy.

Then the middle-aged woman's face showed anger as she scolded, "What's wrong with you? Can't you see our baby is still up there? You haven't agreed to any of our requests along the way, and now you're putting on airs. Are you sick in the head?"

"I want a big bird, I want a big bird!" At this moment, the little brat kept twisting his body in place, looking aggrieved, and the dagger in his hand was also waving wildly. Niu Dingtian looked at the light reflected by the dagger and knew that it was most likely a real thing, and it might even be of high grade.

"Before you try to control me, can you at least take care of your son first? Look at what he's been doing all this way!" the teacher said, barely suppressing her temper, seemingly having some reservations.

"What's wrong with my son? Isn't it good that he's so lively? You're such a grown-up, and your child is still so young. How can you be so childish? How can you be a teacher? I'm going to complain to my brother about you." The middle-aged woman acted as if her son was still young, so lively and adorable, and that whatever he did was right.

"Damn it, I'm not putting up with this anymore!" The teacher was so angry that he cursed, his face turning ashen, almost like a corpse. He turned and left, saying, "Go ahead and complain all you want, I'll just quit being a teacher."

"Hey!! Why are you shouting so loudly? And swearing! What kind of manners are you? What if you scare my son? My son is a genius! If you frighten him, I can't even afford to pay for it if I kill you!" the middle-aged woman immediately retorted, then went to coax the little brat, but unfortunately, the little brat was just a big, distressed bird.

Seeing that things were not going well, Qi Rou quickly turned around and left, but the woman with sharp eyes saw that she couldn't coax the child and hurriedly said to Qi Rou, "Hey teacher over there, I remember you're also a bird spirit, right? Hurry up and summon it, what are you just standing there for?"

Qi Rou's expression was also very unpleasant. Without even turning her head, she walked straight inside, saying, "I have other matters to attend to, so I cannot keep you company."

The woman, her face contorted with rage, burst into a tirade. "How can all the teachers at Great Cloud Mountain be so rude? Aren't they just a few country bumpkins? Put this job aside for now, come and play with my son for a while. He's doing your college a favor by coming here. What kind of lousy place and lousy college did my brother choose?"

This statement had an extremely wide reach. First, it insulted all the teachers at Great Cloud Mountain, then it insulted several people in Ox Family Town, and finally, it insulted the entire academy by calling it a "lousy academy."

All the students who were doing their morning exercises stopped and stared at the three people. You see, those who can get up so early to exercise are usually students from the hidden classes. They consider Great Cloud Mountain Academy their home. Now that their beloved place has been called a lousy place, how can they not be angry?

The crowd slowly gathered. Seeing so many people, the woman's arrogance didn't subside; instead, it intensified. Pointing at them, she said disdainfully, "You peasants want to kill someone? My brother is a Grandmaster of the Heavenly Rank, Lin Shan! You dare touch a single hair on my head? See if he'll retaliate against your lousy academy!"

"Alright!" A voice suddenly interrupted the middle-aged woman's angry rant, and a young man in his early twenties suddenly appeared before everyone's eyes.

"Brother, look at them, bullying your sister and your nephew." The woman turned around as if she knew the voice very well, and said coquettishly. Of course, if the woman were ten years younger, this coquettishness would be much more palatable.

At this moment, the middle-aged man who had been almost invisible hurriedly bowed to the young man and said, "Brother-in-law..."
