In the classroom, Chen Heng began to read through a book.
Around him, the others did the sa and also revised.
No one whispered or chatted; everyone did their best to go through material to prepare for the lesson.
This included Chen Heng.
In the Azure Heaven Realm, even though he had mainly focused on immortal cultivation, he had also done much research into the Basic ditation Technique.
Back then, he had been a True Lord, and even though he did not know too much about the Sorcerer system, he could make so sense out of it.
Given his experience and his powerful ntal energy, Chen Heng was able to easily grasp these things.
As the other students were still frowning and reading, he had read much more than them.
After a while, footsteps sounded out as other students arrived.
This included Zana and the other people who had co here with Chen Heng; not a single person was missing.
This was not an ordinary school but a Sorcerer academy.
If anyone dared to not co to classes, the consequences would be quite severe.
Putting aside the negative reactions from the teacher, missing out on learning things would cause them to feel quite uncomfortable.
They had spent large amounts of money to co here, and wasn’t that for the purpose of learning things?
As such, no one was willing to skip class, even Chen Heng.
Different from everyone else, after Zana walked in and saw Chen Heng, her face lit up.
“Ed, you ca so early.”
A look of delight appeared on her face as she quickly walked over to Chen Heng’s side and sat down next to him.
There had originally been soone sitting next to Chen Heng, but seeing Zana, they had imdiately given up their seat.
This caused Chen Heng to feel a bit of surprise.
Indeed, even though it was not a big deal to Chen Heng, Zana was indeed one of the most outstanding students out of this batch.
Whether it was her family, talent, or ntal energy, she was far above other students.
In actuality, she only acted respectfully in front of Chen Heng.
In front of other students, she was completely different.
From this, Chen Heng understood how strict hierarchy was among Sorcerers.
Back in the Doyle family’s castle, Griffin had emphasised the importance of etiquette between Sorcerers. Lower-grade Sorcerers had to treat higher-grade Sorcerers with respect, or else they could face death.
However, Chen Heng had only interacted with Griffin, so he had not taken this to heart.
However, now he understood.
The interactions between students made so things evident.
Sitting in his seat, Chen Heng thought to himself as he maintained his calm expression.
Behind him, so people began to whisper.
Many students’ attention was focused on him.
Of the 60 or so students here, a fair portion of them had co from the sa place as Chen Heng.
The others did not know much about Chen Heng.
As such, seeing this scene, they felt quite curious.
So people’s gazes towards Chen Heng changed.
Sitting in his seat, Chen Heng could clearly sense these changes.
The most evident thing was that those who had been sitting near him began to instinctively distance themselves from him and look at him with more respect.
Sensing these changes, Chen Heng inwardly shook his head but did not say anything.
This was fine.
Even though this was not what he was used to, there were still benefits to it.
To be respected by others was a kind of power.
As he thought this, Chen Heng continued to diligently read.
Ti gradually passed.
After all of the students were here, so light footsteps sounded out from outside as a figure slowly walked in.
That person wore gray robes and was very skinny. He looked as if he had just woken up and looked quite tired, and he held a book in his hand.
“Allow to introduce myself.”
He walked to the lectern and rubbed his eyes as he said, “I am your teacher; you can call Derley.
“For this month, your classes will all be taught by . Now, open your books. We will begin this lesson with the origin of runes.”
After walking in, Derley wasted no words and imdiately began to teach.
Different from what Chen Heng had expected, this first lesson did not have any deep content, and was only about the origin of runes.
However, what caused Chen Heng to frown was Derley’s teaching style.
He just held the book and calmly spoke without any emotions the entire ti.
This was not like teaching but reading a textbook.
This could be called teaching?
Chen Heng inwardly frowned.
Compared to this Sorcerer, his previous life’s Physical Education teacher had been quite good.
After all, when the Physical Education teacher Dalin taught, he would at least make things interesting and give them so questions to do.
However, there was none of that here.
Derley was only reading from the textbook, and when he was not doing that, he just casually talked.
In Chen Heng’s previous life, this kind of person could never be a teacher.
However, after slightly thinking about it, Chen Heng understood why this was.
Sorcerer academies were different from schools in his previous life. In his previous life, if a person wanted to teach, they would have to do examinations and placents to prove that they had the capability to teach.
This made sure that teachers passed a basic benchmark at least, or they could not enter a school.
However, things were different for Sorcerer academies.
Firstly, different from ordinary teachers, Sorcerers were special existences.
Having such existences teach classes was already quite difficult.
Powerful and knowledgeable Sorcerers normally would not deign to teach students. Those who would be willing to do such a thing would only be the diocre ones.
Most of them would be like Michael and the others: Apprentices. So were not even Third Rank Apprentices.
After all, from what Chen Heng had seen, even in the Hunter’s House, there were not Third Rank Apprentices everywhere; they were also quite rare.
Even though they were not as rare as true Sorcerers, they were still quite rare and had many things to do, such as the academy’s tasks or their own experints.
As such, it was most likely just so normal Second Rank Apprentices who would teach.
These Apprentices were not great and often had many things they did not understand themselves, and yet they were to teach others.
Moreover, just having sufficient talent and strength did not an that one would be a good teacher.
Just because one was good at sothing did not an that they could teach it well.
From what Chen Heng had seen, most Sorcerers were quite antisocial, and it was obvious what the lessons of such people would be like.
As such, this kind of situation was not very surprising.
Thinking to there, Chen Heng inwardly sighed and tightly gripped his book.
Sorcerer knowledge was quite complicated. Even though these were just the basics, there were still many complex things that made him feel quite surprised.
Despite there being such complicated content, the teachers were so lacking.
This greatly tested students’ self-study abilities.
In other words, if students were not very smart or hardworking, they would quickly fall behind the others.
When that ti ca, what would those students do?
Chen Heng felt that this was an opportunity, but how it turned out would depend on him.
Following this, Chen Heng continued to listen to the lesson.
Soon, a bell rang outside; it was the sound of soone ringing a large bell.
There were many puppets responsible for the bells in order to let people know of the ti.
This bell ant that it was ti for the lesson to end.
As expected, Derley looked outside and put down his book as he then looked at the students and said, “Alright, that’s it for this lesson; I’ll leave the rest to you to self-study. I look forward to our next lesson.”
After emotionlessly saying these things, he turned and walked out.
Looking at Derley walking away, most students’ mouths hung open but did not say anything.
“He spoke way too quickly…”
“I didn’t get a lot of that…”
Many complaints sounded out, as students all looked quite pained.
“Ed, did you understand all that?” Zana asked in a small voice.
“Mostly, yes,” Chen Heng said as he nodded, “The remainder shouldn’t be a problem.”
Hearing this, Zana’s eyes lit up.
“So aweso.”
She looked at Chen Heng in admiration and sighed, “There were many things that I didn’t understand or rember.”
After saying this, she looked at the book on her table, which was filled with countless notes.
Sorcerers’ mories far surpassed that of ordinary people.
However, she still needed to write things down so she could look over them later.
This was what most students had done.
Otherwise, after that fast-paced and disorganised lesson, they would not retain anything.
However, Chen Heng was different.
His ntal energy was far more powerful than ordinary people.
Most students used pen and paper to write down the lesson contents so that they would not forget, but Chen Heng did not have this need at all.
Moreover, with his past experience as a True Lord, he had much knowledge and experience.
Even though the world was different and so principles had changed, many things were common.
Looking at things from a True Lord’s perspective, Chen Heng had much less difficulty understanding various things than other people.
Even though that lesson had been quite difficult for others, it was not a big deal for him.
“If you want, I can spend so ti tutoring you,” Chen Heng said as he put his book away and looked at Zana.
“Really?”
Hearing this, a look of delight appeared on Zana’s face.
Chen Heng nodded, “Of course. However, since it will take up so of my ti, it will not be free.”
Chen Heng’s expression was calm and did not feel embarrassed.
There was nothing embarrassing about asking for paynt in exchange for his ti and effort.
This was quite common among Sorcerers.
“That is very reasonable.”
Zana nodded before asking, “How many magic stones do you want?”
Chen Heng said after thinking, “Just one magic stone is fine. I can repeat it three tis.”
In the end, this was a basic class, and it would not be good to ask for too much.
His main goal was to see if this was possible or not.
If this was possible, he could do the sa for a higher price for other classes.
He could also interact with various students and gain so connections.
“One magic stone to repeat three tis?”
Another student said, “Can I join?”
“Of course.”
Chen Heng nodded before saying, “If you can get another five people to join, you can attend for free.”
That student looked overjoyed, “Really? It’s a deal!”
He imdiately turned and left, most likely to find others.
Looking at this person leaving, Chen Heng inwardly shook his head as he looked at Zana and said, “Of course, that applies to you too.”
“It’s fine,” Zana shook her head, “I’ll just give you the magic stone.”
Following this, she directly took out a magic stone from her bag.
Compared to others, given that she ca from a Sorcerer family, she naturally had much resources.
She did not lack magic stones, and a single one was not a big deal to her.
Looking at her taking out the magic stone so willingly, Chen Heng did not hold back and accepted it.
Ti continued to pass.
In the academy, students had much ti to themselves.
The academy did not have many classes, and each day only had one class on average.
After all, Sorcerers were all very busy and did not have that much ti to waste on new students.
As such, Chen Heng began to do his tutoring on that very day.
Because it had not been long and there were not many people who had tried it, only ten or so people ca to the first session.
What surprised Chen Heng was that student called Mahler from before.
In order to save that one magic stone, he had actually brought five people.
What surprised him even more was that there were a few people in this group who were not part of his batch but the previous batch.
It seed that there were many people in the previous batch who had fallen behind and still did not understand the basic classes.
Standing at the lectern, Chen Heng thought to himself.
They were in a classroom, which Chen Heng had booked.
The booking process was quite simple; he just had to ask Michael.
Just like Michael had said, he managed various things in the academy, and booking a classroom was not a big deal.
After everyone arrived, Chen Heng began to talk.
The students below imdiately sensed sothing was different.
Compared to what Derley had taught, the contents that Chen Heng talked about were not any deeper, but his teaching style was much better.
So topics that were quite boring beca quite interesting when he talked about them.
Just listening to him speak felt quite comfortable.
Moreover, he would talk about his understanding and talk about the principles and concepts in detail.
This was much better than the lesson that Derley had given.
In actuality, there was no difference in the difficulty of the lessons that the both of them gave; it was just a difference in attitude and teaching style.
