The moment he entered, Ningyan felt it.
Curious gazes followed him as he slipped into a seat at the back. He glanced around instinctively, searching for Rong Chao, but the tiger beast was nowhere to be seen.
Hours passed. And the students quietly read the scrolls the teacher had handed out.
Ningyan ignored them entirely.
