The crowd could not help but feel disgusted when they saw the father and daughter.
The teacher in particular felt a burning anger following him.
The family came to the Royal Academy because of its fame which could benefit them. They are not here to learn!
Such people would tarnish the reputation of the academy if they were accepted!
The teacher looked serious and somewhat annoyed.
The entrance exam was not difficult at all. Anyone can pass as long as they're not stupid. The teacher was grim when he saw the current Xie Niushan.
As soon as Xie Niushan left, Xie Qiao felt the chill that the teacher emitted.
“The Royal Academy is unlike any other academy. Anyone who came here, even imperial princes and imperial grandchildren, had to follow the rules. One must take learning as their responsibility. Those who are insincere, trying to use the fame of the Royal Academy to get married must scram now!” the teacher said coldly.
Although he did not look towards Xie Qiao when he spoke, almost everyone who heard him stared at Xie Qiao deliberately.
Xie Qiao felt somewhat troubled.
He was hated even before he was accepted into the academy?
Her real father …
They must be enemies in their past lives, right? That must be the reason why he did that to her.
Xie Qiao survives with Mo Lingzi, the unreliable Taoist Master. He's seen it all. So, he was not panicking at the moment.
He pretended not to see that gaze, lowered his head, and waited slowly. He doesn't seem to notice.
However, in the eyes of the teacher, he thought this woman was stubborn. He is the one who will not listen to anything that is good for him.
He's even more upset now.
“Regardless of identity and wealth, in order to enter the Royal Academy, all of you must have adequate abilities. Alright, everyone will sit down for a simple exam now.” said the teacher loudly.
Everyone who signed up went to the classroom.
The classroom is spacious with large windows in four directions. Everything opened. Breezy as they entered, which was different from a warm courtyard.
Each one sat at the table.
Xie Qiao was the oldest, while the rest were little girls who were only 10 years old.
Some are shy, while some are very active.
Soon, a schoolboy gave everyone a few sheets of paper.
“You all come from prominent families, so it is easier for you to enter the academy. However, you have to know the basics. You will be given two hours now to memorize the article before you. If the time is up, you should dictate it.” said the teacher.
Since he was in charge of recruitment, he was naturally not an ordinary person but someone who had contributed to the country.
Even if he changed the rules at the last minute, no one would say anything.
As soon as he finished talking, the girls started grumbling.
Many students leaned against the outside window to peek.
“That Miss Xie must be the one who dragged everyone down? It is not difficult to memorize an article in two hours. However, it is rather difficult to make them dictate his article.” snobbish someone out there.
The article is three papers long.
Xie Qiao had three sheets of paper in his hand as well, but …
It was written in Sanskrit.
Taoism and Buddhism are at odds with each other. Naturally, he should know about other religions as well. Moreover, his body had been weak since young. He will read when he does nothing. Therefore, about Sanskrit…
He knows a little.
Although he knew a little, his teacher was clearly eyeing him.
Xie Qiao raised his eyes and asked gently, “You want me to dictate Sanskrit, Mister? Is this a rule for admission to the academy?”
The teacher looked a bit uneasy, but he kept saying, “Sanskrit is widely used in scripture. Copying the scriptures, as well as saluting your seniors, can calm people down. There is nothing wrong with that check.”
