2805 An Unclaimed Qiao
"Cultivating Pure Subjects. This year, Mentor Ma and Mentor Gao will lead all 322 new students. Those whose names were called by the quilt, please stand behind the two mentors."
"Weapon forging is divided into a third of a cm hall. This year, Mentor Zhang will guide 21 new students."
"Pill Hall will have 33 new students under the guidance of Mentor Zheng from now on…"
"Mentor Zhang will oversee the five new students in the Talisman Hall."
"The Concealed Weapon Division is in a third of a cm hall, with 59 newcomers…"
"In the Qin Hall…"
"In the Painting Hall…"
Qiao Mu dozed off as she listened. After the two mentors helped Dean Yun finish reciting everyone's names, the third of a cm subject in the school finally concluded two hours later.
The young girl stood alone in front of the freshmen team, looking left and right in confusion.
"Why am I the only one who hasn't found my assigned group yet?"
Earlier, Mo Lian had also been called to the forging room to join the third of a cm group.
"No one had claimed her…"
A hushed silence fell over the entire drill ground.
All eyes were on Qiao Mu.
On the expansive drill ground, students were lined up according to their designated disciplines, with both new and returning students standing in formation.
Qiao Mu's petite face darkened instantly.
Qi Xuanxuan and her friends, who had been directed to the freshman group by the quilt, couldn't help but facepalm.
/She was utterly frustrated. What on earth was happening? Why was their typically reserved companion the only one left?/
An accompanying mentor hurriedly nudged Dean Yun, signaling him to quickly assess the stoic girl's demeanor.
The stoic expression on her face appeared ready to explode…
Dean Yun finally grasped the situation and smiled at the young lady. "Classmate Qiao, which subject would you like to pursue? You have the choice of Cultivation Hall, Pill Hall, or Talisman Hall."
Clearly, Dean Yun was well-informed about the stoic girl's abilities. He knew she excelled not only in cultivation but also in pill alchemy and talisman crafting.
The young girl's previously disgruntled expression softened slightly as she glanced in her companion's direction.
Her companion had been enthusiastically ushered away by the mentor from the Smelting Weapons Hall due to a lack of talent in that field.
Mo Lian, too, found the situation incredibly vexing. He had been heading towards the Cultivation Hall, only to be intercepted halfway by Mentor Zhang. Despite his grandiose words, he ended up being whisked away by the quilt to the Smelting Weapons Hall.
However, the Imperial Academy held some intrigue.
He seldom displayed his talent for weapon forging in front of others, so he was puzzled as to how they had discovered it.
Naturally, he wanted to cultivate alongside his wife, but now…
When Mentor Zhang noticed Mo Lian moving, he hurried over, fixating on him, and began earnestly advising him.
They opted to remain in the Smelting Weapons Hall, where they could also enroll as a subsidiary discipline in the Cultivation Hall and potentially participate in future Heavenly Origin Ranking competitions.
Staying in the Smelting Weapons Hall came with numerous advantages, such as receiving a generous monthly supply of forging materials and more. Crown Prince Mo felt overwhelmed as the mentor continued to expound on these benefits. It seemed like this mentor hadn't engaged in such a lengthy conversation with anyone in centuries, and the endless chatter left him feeling dizzy.
Due to this lengthy discourse, the reserved young woman had already made her resolute choice: the Cultivation Hall.
Her reasoning was straightforward. Mo Lian had ventured into the Smelting Weapons Hall, Duan Yue had taken the path of the Concealed Weapon Hall, and the Qin Estate members primarily occupied the Pill Hall. Consequently, she had no intention of joining the Pill Hall.
