Chapter 2774

Elder Wu’s eyes lit up. “You’ve explored such a large area in such a short time. How impressive!”

Elder Mei shrugged and sighed. “I’m getting old. I’m already a little tired... Well, off you go.”

He didn’t like having too many people around since it would affect his thinking process.

After all, studying formations was a complicated process. If he was disturbed, he would need to start from the beginning again.

Elder Wu nodded and was going to lead the team away.

Elder Mei glanced at Feng Wu. “Young lady, do some solid work.”

Apparently, he thought Feng Wu had been bragging before.

What was he referring to? The paper crane, the crown prince, or both?

Feng Wu smiled at him. “I think one should be humble and accept their old age.”

Elder Mei’s eyes widened.

...

He was a formation master.

Imperial College only had a handful of formation masters of his level, and people revered him. However, a student had just disrespected him.

Elder Mei’s face was livid.

Zuo Qingluan smirked at Feng Wu and mouthed, “You arrogant idiot.”

Meanwhile, Chen Ziyun and his team stared at Feng Wu as if she were God.

Where did this girl come from? She had just said those things to Elder Mei! Elder Mei!

Qiu Zeyu didn’t know what to say.

At first, he thought he could pick on her because she was merely a new student.

However, this new student had offended Zuo Qingluan and Elder Mei one after another. Qiu Zeyu didn’t know if he should laugh or cry.

What kind of trouble had he gotten himself into? He wondered if he was even qualified to be her enemy.

“No, she’s not my enemy...” Qiu Zeyu decided to give up.

Elder Wu only scolded Feng Wu after they were a few kilometers away. “Don’t you know you should respect your teachers? Yes, you’re talented, but that doesn’t give you the right to talk to a senior like that!”

Feng Wu stuck out her tone. “That was because he said those things to me.”

Elder Wu said, “Have you forgotten who he is? He’s a Level 7 formation master! We only have a handful of people like him in the empire! Who do you think you are? It was very generous of him to let you go!”

Feng Wu nodded.

Wang Xiao frowned.

He thought Feng Wu was just a pretty face. Why did Elder Wu say she was talented? She was probably the least talented student on the team.

Elder Wu seemed to think very highly of her. Why?

But no one could answer Wang Xiao’s questions.

Elder Wu announced the mission.

“You’ll be training within this 10km-area.

“You’ll be divided into pairs. The first will be paired with the tenth, the second with the ninth, and so on!”

Chen Ziyun raised his hand. “Elder Wu, can I team up with Feng Wu? She’s new and doesn’t know the rules. I think I should keep her safe.”

Elder Wu gave him a strange look. Keep Feng Wu safe?

He was going to make Feng Wu the team leader, but after hearing what Chen Ziyun said, he had a new plan.

“You’ll be divided into two groups, then. Chen Ziyun and Feng Wu will be in one group, and the other eight in another group.”
