"Duan Lingtian!"
Duan Lingtian nodded to Sima Chang Feng as he replied.
"Duan Lingtian?"
Sima Chang Feng's brows raised as he was slightly surprised. "You're a direct descendant of the Duan Clan?"
Besides Xiao Yu and Xiao Xun, a few other students who had a good understanding of the Imperial City's Duan Clan looked at Duan Lingtian as well.
The direct descendant of the Duan Clan's younger generation was of the 'Ling' generation ….
However, everyone, including Sima Chang Feng, felt that it was slightly strange. If Duan Lingtian was really a member of the Duan Clan, then he shouldn't be a nobody.
Not to mention the stratagem he spoke of earlier, it was sufficient to prove that he was resourceful. Being able to enter Paladin Academy at the age of 18 was extremely rare.
"I'm not."
Duan Lingtian shook his head.
So what if the blood of the Duan Clan's direct descendant flowed in his body?
He disdained that cold and indifferent clan!
"Sit down."
Sima Chang Feng nodded. If Duan Lingtian wasn't a disciple of the Duan Clan, then it would be understandable.
The Crimson Sky Kingdom's territory was vast, and there were many people with the surname Duan, so it wasn't surprising.
The other students heaved a sigh of relief.
"Like I said, if he was a disciple of the Duan Clan, then his name would probably have spread throughout the Imperial City long ago."
"However, even if he isn't a disciple of the Duan Clan, being able to pass the Paladin Academy's entrance exam at such an age in all 18 counties is truly monstrous!"
Many students glanced at Duan Ling Tian with slightly fearful gazes.
"Not only is this Duan Lingtian's natural talent in the Martial Dao strong, his mind is also so nimble …. The stratagem of 'crossing the sea by deceiving the heavens,' to be able to think of it!"
Xiao Xun glanced at Duan Lingtian, and a feeling of admiration instantly arose in his heart.
Xiao Yu's gaze flickered. Although he was surprised by the stratagem that Duan Lingtian spoke of, when he thought of the various miracles that Duan Lingtian repeatedly created in Aurora City, he felt at ease.
In his eyes ….
Duan Lingtian was a little monster!
At this time, Sima Chang Feng's voice sounded out, "Duan Lingtian's' Crossing the Sea by Deception 'plan can be considered to be flawless. Even the plan that I came up with was partially based on the essence of the' Crossing the Sea by Deception 'plan. Overall, it can't compare to his' Crossing the Sea by Deception 'plan!"
Whoosh!
Sima Chang Feng's words caused a stir in the classroom without any suspense.
None of them had imagined that a dignified Star Mastermind Department teacher of Paladin Academy would actually display an attitude of 'feeling inferior' to a new student …
However, when they thought about it, they felt relieved.
Duan Lingtian's plan of 'crossing the sea by deception' was indeed admirable and impeccable.
"This teacher is quite interesting."
Duan Lingtian stared at Sima Chang Feng, slightly surprised.
Generally speaking, a teacher would want to maintain their reputation to a certain extent. It was impossible for them to admit that they were inferior to a student in certain aspects …
Sima Chang Feng, however, appeared magnanimous and didn't feel the slightest bit ashamed.
Such a demeanor was worthy of admiration!
Very quickly, an entire morning's time passed amidst Sima Chang Feng's' long speech '….
It had to be said that Sima Chang Feng's lectures were rather interesting and had a lot of interactions. Not a single one of the eighteen new students present had been absent-minded throughout the entire morning.
Even Duan Lingtian couldn't help but feel admiration for Sima Chang Feng's profound knowledge!
When it was close to noon, Sima Chang Feng put away the 'proof of enrollment' of Duan Lingtian and the others and gave each of them an exquisite little command token. The front and back of the token were exactly the same, and besides some patterns on the sides, the two words' Paladin 'were inscribed in the center.
"This is Paladin Academy's Student Command Token. You can use this command token to enter and leave Paladin Academy in the future …."
When Sima Chang Feng spoke up to here, his wise eyes abruptly became somewhat fierce. "However, if someone uses this command token to bully the good and commit crimes outside as a student of Paladin Academy, Paladin Academy has the right to take back the command token and expel the person from Paladin Academy!"
Sima Chang Feng's warning caused some of the students present who originally intended to show off with the command token to dispel the thoughts that had just arisen.
They had spent a tremendous amount of effort to be able to enter Paladin Academy, and only they themselves knew the hardships involved.
Now that they had become students of Paladin Academy, they would receive even more attention and bring honor to their family.
If they were expelled from Paladin Academy, then they would really lose all face!
"Paladin Academy is divided into a total of six years. You are all first year students. First year students attend classes for five days and rest for two days …. According to the academy's regulations, Star Mastermind Department students attend classes in the morning, eat lunch in the academy's cafeteria, and have free time in the Martial Arts Practice Field in the afternoon. You can discuss the Martial Dao with others, and you can also spar with others, but you cannot harm your life! "
After Sima Chang Feng finished speaking, he left.
"Let's go eat!"
Xiao Xun stood up and called out to Duan Lingtian and Xiao Yu.
The three of them arrived at the cafeteria, found an empty table, and sat down around it.
The cafeteria within Paladin Academy was similar to the restaurants outside. After a short while, an attendant walked up and respectfully asked, "What would the three young masters like to eat?"
The three of them ordered a few dishes and a jug of wine.
"That Teacher Sima from today has profound knowledge and is admirable."
Xiao Yu sighed with emotion.
"Indeed."
Duan Lingtian agreed.
Xiao Xun glanced at Duan Lingtian with a strange expression. "Duan Lingtian, I don't find it strange that Xiao Yu said he admires Teacher Sima …. But you, a student who was able to think of the 'Crossing the Ocean by Deception' plan and made Teacher Sima feel ashamed of his inferiority, would still admire Teacher Sima?"
The more he thought about the 'Crossing the Ocean by Deception' plan that Duan Lingtian talked about in class today, the more he thought about it, the more he felt that it was unfathomable!
This plan could not only be used on the battlefield, it could be used in many other areas ….
It was an extremely practical plan!
Hearing Xiao Xun's words, the corners of Duan Lingtian's mouth curled up in embarrassment.
The 'Crossing the Ocean by Deception' plan wasn't something he thought of himself, but rather copied from the 《Thirty-Six Stratagems》 from his previous life ….
Now that Xiao Xun said that he thought of it, his face couldn't help but heat up.
Soon, more and more students arrived at the cafeteria.
Among these students, there were new students around the age of 20, and there were also senior students who were a little over 20.
After a short while, the spacious cafeteria was filled with people.
Some students could only stand at the side and wait.
"Duan Lingtian!"
A familiar voice came from afar. It was Tian Hu and Su Li ….
Although the table wasn't big, five people could still squeeze in.
"Why are you guys so late?"
Duan Lingtian was slightly surprised.
"Don't mention it. There are a lot of people in our Star General Department, and we were divided into two other classes …. We were also unlucky to be assigned to Niu Ben's class. That Niu Ben is a freak. In the classroom, he only said a few words about the 'Way of a General' before dragging us to the Martial Arts Practice Field to run. After running for an entire morning, I'm exhausted to death."
Tian Hu cursed.
At this moment, Duan Lingtian noticed that Tian Hu's clothes were drenched in sweat.
"Tian Hu, it's you who can't do it, right? I see that Su Li's face isn't red, nor is he panting …. It doesn't seem to be as exaggerated as you said. "
Xiao Yu glanced at Su Li, who was leisurely and composed, and laughed in ridicule.
"Can I compare to him? He's a freak …. "
Tian Hu was just about to say that Su Li was a freak when he noticed Su Li's gaze that was like a sword looking at him, and he hurriedly shut his mouth.
"So to speak, our Star Mastermind Department is actually more relaxed than you guys. We spent the entire morning enjoying ourselves in the classroom."
Xiao Xun laughed.
"If I knew earlier, I would have chosen the Star Mastermind Department."
Tian Hu said with slight regret.
"Are you cut out for that?"
Su Li snorted coldly as he spoke in disdain.
Duan Lingtian and the others started laughing. If Tian Hu were to really be the mastermind that came up with strategies, it would indeed be quite difficult for him.
After a short while, the steaming hot dishes were served.
Duan Lingtian asked the attendant to add two more pairs of bowls and chopsticks.
The five of them had just picked up their chopsticks and were about to start eating.
"Hey! The few of you, leave the money for this meal and you can leave. "
Right at this moment, an abrupt voice broke the temporary silence at Duan Lingtian's table.
Duan Lingtian's face sank as he looked at the person who spoke.
The person who spoke was a young man around the age of 20, and behind him were three other young men of similar ages. According to Duan Lingtian's guess, these four people ought to be the old students of year 2.
"Is there something wrong with you?"
Tian Hu stared with his pair of eyes that were as large as gongs. He wasn't afraid in the slightest as he stared at the person in the lead.
"Kid, I told you to put down the money and f * * k off. Didn't you hear me? “
The face of the young man in the lead sank.
At this time last year, when faced with the threats of the senior students, as a new student, although he was indignant in his heart, he still obediently put down the money for the meal and scram ….
Now, a group of new students had come to the academy. He originally thought that he could show off his power as a senior student, but who knew that he actually encountered a tough nut to crack!
He couldn't maintain his composure anymore.
"Didn't you hear that I told you to scram? “
"Remember to put down the money for this meal. Take it as being filial to us. In the future, we'll protect you in the academy."
"What are you looking at? Scram!"
The other few young men spoke out as well, and all of them seemed to have transformed into glaring vajras.
Duan Lingtian looked at the surroundings and noticed that many new students were facing a similar situation ….
Most of the new students chose to swallow their anger, put down the money, and leave, giving the table of good wine and dishes they ordered to the senior students who threatened them.
"These days, there are such annoying 'flies' everywhere. It's really annoying."
Duan Lingtian shook his head and sighed. He directly picked up some food and started eating, treating the four senior students as air.
Tian Hu, who was originally in a rage, was stunned for a moment when he heard Duan Lingtian's words, then he couldn't help but laugh. "Yeah, I didn't expect that flies these days would be so poor. They actually don't even have money to eat …. Tsk tsk, if it were up to me, it's fine if you don't have money. Kneel down and sing a little song. Maybe if this grandpa is happy, he'll reward you with a few pieces of silver."
Hearing Duan Lingtian and Tian Hu's words, Xiao Yu and Xiao Xun burst into laughter. They didn't pay attention to the four senior students who were glaring angrily at them, and they minded their own business and started eating.
As for Su Li, he swept through the food on the table with a cold expression and didn't have much fluctuation in his emotions.
"You …. You all …."
