The bell of her room rang and she woke up.

She looked through window it was still dark outside, no sign of morning.

She hurried to dress up, combed well and exited from her room, all students of her age were gathered in the central hall.

It was spacious generously and without seats to sit all were standing according to their row number and batch number.

Jen also found her standing point despite the fact of being an early rising every student was attentive so this was the Manner Class Orientation Day, fair enough.

After few minutes a figure appeared from the front entrance of hall tall, white robs, mild expressions with a face full of smiles.

Every student paid immediate bow despite his mild and carefree expressions of course, no one would like to stand on loose ends, facts remain facts.

Hall was illuminated with shine stones maximized with mirror reflections, "Today our juniors selection would represent Primary Grade Level in the Yellow River Annual Feast Lunch, you were selected by high references and also at the will of Deans, remember to be stellar at the lunch and now let's explore the different parts and halls of Primary Grade Level there is no warning for inappropriate behavior never forget," saying this, his expression changed into solemn, they all followed suit behind him.

All students behind him started to follow.

They were all focused on following cultivation hall and then other corridors ins and outs.

House lord was explaining about the places they visited and their placements in different classes as well as strict rules, time was slipping fairly rapid.

Before noon they were ordered to prepare for the lunch and gather in the same hall, "Remember there is limited time left for preparation," soon everyone was in a hurry to make way back to their rooms.

Jen also followed she was feeling alien to this place but she could not break tacit kind intentions of her uncle.

She dressed her up and hurried back to hall.

Within incense of time hall again was brimming with students of Primary Grade Level.

Everyone was looking promptly decent, again that lord manner appeared and left saying, "Follow"

There were long chariots and were parked for them.

They were given seats according to their batches.

They left behind the building while moving.

Bluestones were used in the making of the pathway and on their both sides were exceptionally green turf.

After an hour ride they approached outskirts of a temporary designed feast garden.

Its entrance was decorated with exceptionally colorful flowers.

Inner part was divided into different grades according to the feast attenders grades, Primary Grade, Intermediate Grade, High Grade, Imperial Grade, Protector Grade.

Protector Grade was where the high achievers and protectors of the Yellow River have destined to sit.

Their seats were definitely high placed, students of Primary Grade were moved where they were allocated seats.

Long dining tables were decorated with appetizing food filled dishes.

High Grade and Imperial Grade students were young boys and girls.

Sometime chatting and smiling each other's as compared to Primary Grade, they were looking everything with great attention and they were yet to interact each other.

Evidently, they were not acquainted with each other and this was their official first day, after all.

A voice came in everyone's ears everyone got attentive towards the voice.

It was from the hosting site and the speaker was Deputy Dean.

She was looking extraordinary beauty today, her purple robs were stunning, her long hair was free from any formality of bun making, her presence made the elegance of the place and moments two fold.

She spoke, "We welcome our new batch of this year everyone knew they would be our shining bright future and fair example is our protectors and high achievers, since they are making us proud in the whole era.

She pointed toward the seats of high achievers and protectors with a smile, "Now follow your lords and enjoy lunch," she finished her bit of words and sat beside Dean.

Weather was pleasant and all students were elated by bits by being part of this place.

Jen was surprised to see grandeur inwardly.

Now she was truly excited about the place she was in.

They moved around after the lunch.

She looked at the small hill and started walking toward while she forget to follow her class disciples who were walking behind their manner Lord.

Someone came like a wind and stopped her vision, she could only feel that she was travelling in the air.

The wind left her close to her class and whispered, "Follow them,"

She looked around but there was no one.

Many places of the Yellow River were restricted even for Protectors.

Creeks were the true guardians of Yellow River.

After four hours, they were heading back to their Primary Grade, she was tired being busy whole day.

Jen could not comprehend though as to who and why stopped her and sent back in the class.

After they arrived at Primary Grade, every student was allowed to rest.

So they moved toward their rooms.

Jen also came in the room and changed her dress.

She concluded the whole day in her thoughts and made few opinions, during those thoughts she fell asleep.

Mountains which met the Yellow River were a symbol of power for Yellow River.

There stood four giant shadows, as mysterious as their surrounding.

"This year we hope that Whiz would not come here to make trouble in the Yellow River," one of them spoke, others nodded with grim expressions.

"She is also here this year," the second one pointed.

"Who?" third one asked.

"You are always forgetful, her presence might become subject for the Whiz, did you prepared yourself to face the Whiz?"

"Ah, don't make me remember, my previous injuries are still refresh," he spoke with disdain against Whiz.

"Don't behave weak, Yellow River is our responsibility, did you forget your oath?" his friend was bent to rub salt on his injuries.
