“Your past built the present you, but it shouldn’t be a shackle for your future.” A peerless assassin, codename Hua, received her last big mission after nearly died in an avalanche. Everyone knew that the Nan Family had a long missing daughter who only recently returned. She was raised in the village and didn’t have common sense of the nobility daughter, inviting mockery all over the Green Planet. Hearing various jokes about this daughter, they only shook their head and feel that she was not worthy of the Nan Family. However… Those who bullied her were bullied back by others suddenly. Those who wanted to hurt her suddenly got oppressed. Those who tried to harm her fell unlucky and got hurt instead. Nan Hua watched this all with an innocent look. They didn’t know that the one who put them in this predicament is precisely the unsightly young miss they looked down upon. Everything was doing well, but why did her supposed indifferent fiancé paid so much attention to her? Shouldn’t he just focus on the examination and his career in the military? A while later, Nan Hua saw Long Qian Xing staring at her gently and smiled back. ... Story set in fictional world with some advanced technology.

[Bonus chapter]Noisy
Ouyang Lin's result was A, so there was nothing to say about her. Yu Sui's result was D while Nan Hua's result was E. In combination, their total score would be 8 points and the average points were already 11 points.
It's over, they had to participate in the evening training.
"Can't you do your test better?" Yu Sui looked at Nan Hua in annoyance.
Nan Hua didn't even bother to look at Yu Sui and instead fiddled with the bracelet… light brain on her wrist. She was looking at the ranking and calculate the result of each student.
After all, they didn't know the real range for these A to F ranking but Nan Hua could estimate it.
Her girlfriend patted Yu Sui's shoulder. "Be patient. She's from Nan Family."
"So what if she's from Nan Family? Does it mean that she had better background and could toss others like this?" Yu Sui snorted.
Ouyang Lin was not far from them and also checked the ranking. She didn't care too much about it because she would always have training in the evening to get stronger. If their dormitory score was higher, she would train with the others but if the dormitory score was lower, they would train together.
There was nothing strange with it.
"That…" Yu Sui's friend didn't know what to say.
Nan Hua looked at Yu Sui and knew that Yu Sui herself was mediocre. Yu Sui was more than a year older than Nan Hua, but her result was nothing spectacular. Unless they could reach B rank, it was hard to say that they would be allowed to graduate.
This was the requirement for Military Academy A.
They will only let the best graduate and those with lower result and still didn't reach the requirement when they were 20 years old had to drop out or move to the lower university with probation period.
If they could eventually graduate from the other military university with good result, they could then earn their graduation certificate from Military Academy A High School.
Nan Hua looked at her personal information and nodded quietly.
…
<Name: Nan Hua>
<Age: 17 years old>
<Physical Rank: Rank 1-8>
<Mental Rank: Rank 1-6>
…
It couldn't be said to be the best, but Nan Hua knew that with this information, she could already act to protect herself when it was necessary at school. Her opponents were only limited to those with D and E and results, though.
"At least, the improvement ranking is good." Yu Sui's friend pointed at the other ranking.
The improvement ranking only calculate whether there was any improvement and then give them a score between 1 to 10 to see whether these students learn properly or not. The higher their score, the higher their improvement be it in quality or quantity.
Those who already had higher physical strength would find it harder to advance, so it was easier for them to get more score if they earn more.
The improvement ranking showed their score result in the dormitory.
Nan Hua looked at it and nodded.
…
<Female Dormitory 3-3>
Ouyang Lin: 8
Nan Hua: 9
Yu Sui: 5
…
In fact, Yu Sui's improvement could be said to be the lowest among them. This was embarrassing for Yu Sui, who was clamoring just now.
Yu Sui's face was red. "Her improvement score is high, but how much of it is the attribute of Nan Family?"
"Right."
Those with good background would be easy to get resources. Unlike those with poor background.
However, Yu Sui's background was actually pretty good.
It was lower than Nan Family, but it was not that bad.
Ouyang Lin heard Yu Sui clamoring and her eyebrows furrowed, feeling that this annoying young woman was even noisier this time. She looked at Yu Sui and spat out, "Train more."
Yu Sui froze.
She looked at Ouyang Lin and shut her mouth for good.
Ouyang Family and Nan Family were both big families whom she couldn't offend. Coupled with the fact that Ouyang Lin was the eldest lady and also had excellent score, she didn't dare to refute her.
"There'll be written test after this." Yu Sui's friend was also frightened by Ouyang Lin sudden shot. "I'll go and prepare myself mentally."
Yu Sui looked at her friend with glare. What preparation do they need for the written test?
No matter what was thrown to them, they just had to answer it and see how it would be.
The world was finally quiet.
Nan Hua looked at Ouyang Lin and then said in a low voice, "Thank you."
Ouyang Lin looked at Nan Hua, whose head was lowered and looked very timid. She felt that this kind of posture looked annoying to look at. Even though Nan Hua's back was straight and taut, her head was lowered. It looked a bit unpleasant for some reasons.
"Noisy."
Nan Hua raised her head, blinked 'innocently' and then moved away to the side.
She could guess that this Ouyang Lin hated people who were bothersome to her. Instead of helping Nan Hua, she was only helping herself because Yu Sui's chatter was annoying to hear.
It seemed, Nan Hua already had preliminary plan of how to get along with the two roommates now.
