The crowd could not help but feel disdain when they saw the father and daughter.

The teacher especially felt burning anger overtaking him.

The family came to the Royal Academy for its fame that could benefit them. They were not here to study!

Such people would smudge the academy’s reputation if they were accepted!

The teacher looked serious and rather pissed.

The entry examination was not difficult at all. Anyone could pass as long as they were not dumb. The teacher was grim when he looked at Xie Niushan at the moment.

As soon as Xie Niushan left, Xie Qiao felt the coldness the teacher was exuding.

“The Royal Academy isn’t like any other academy. Anyone who comes here, even the imperial princes and imperial grandchildren, will have to follow the rules. One will have to take studying as their responsibility. Those who are insincere, attempting to use the Royal Academy’s fame to get themselves a marriage should scram right now!” the teacher said coldly.

Although he did not look in Xie Qiao’s direction when he spoke, almost anyone who heard that stared at Xie Qiao intentionally.

Xie Qiao felt rather troubled.

She was being despised before she was even accepted into the academy?

Her biological father…

They must have been enemies in their past life, right? It must be the reason why he did that to her.

Xie Qiao had survived living with Mo Lingzi, the unreliable Taoist master. She had seen it all. Thus, she did not panic at the moment.

She pretended not to see those stares, held her head down, and waited slowly. She seemed like she was not paying attention.

However, in the teacher’s eyes, he thought this lady was stubborn. She was a person who would not listen to anything that was good for her.

He was even more pissed now.

“Apart from identity and wealth, in order to enter the Royal Academy, all of you will need to have sufficient capabilities. Alright, everyone will sit for a simple examination now,” the teacher said loudly.

All of the people who applied went into a classroom.

The classroom was spacious with big windows in four directions. All of them were opened. It was breezy when they went in, which was different from the warm courtyard.

Each of them got themselves a seat at the tables.

There were only a total of eight people who applied this time.

Xie Qiao was the oldest, while the rest were little girls of only 10 years old.

Some were shy, while some were very active.

Soon, a schoolboy gave everyone a few pieces of paper.

“All of you come from notable families, so it’s much easier for you to enter the academy. However, you should know the basics. You’ll be given two hours now to memorize the article before you. When the time is up, you’ll have to dictate it,” the teacher said.

Since he was responsible for recruitment, he was naturally not a commoner but someone who had contributed to the country.

Even if he was to change the rule last minute, nobody would say anything.

As soon as he was done speaking, the girls began grumbling.

Many students were leaning on the windows outside to peep.

“That Ms. Xie must be the one who dragged everyone down? It’s not difficult to memorize an article within two hours. However, it’s rather difficult to get them to dictate the article,” someone out there gloated.

The article was three papers long.

Xie Qiao had three pieces of paper in her hands too, but…

It was written in Sanskrit.

Taoism and Buddhism conflicted each other. Naturally, she had to know about the other religion as well. Moreover, her body had been weak since young. She would read when she had nothing to do. Therefore, about Sanskrit…

She knew a little bit.

Although she knew a little bit, the teacher was clearly targeting her.

Xie Qiao lifted her eyes and asked softly, “You want me to dictate Sanskrit, sir? Is this the rule to get into the academy?”

The teacher looked rather uneasy, but he still said, “Sanskrit is mostly used in scriptures. Copying the scriptures, as well as paying respects to your seniors, can calm one down. There’s nothing wrong with the examination.”
