The wall in front of them was precisely a part of Eastsea Academy. Not too far off were the large stone academy gates which gave off an imposing feeling.
Eastsea Academy was a large academy which was actually comprised of both an intermediate academy and an advanced academy. Liu Yuxin was a student of the advanced academy.
One simply couldn't assume that the intermediate academy and the advanced academy were just a single step apart from each other. In reality, the two had a myriad of differences between one another.
The intermediate academy still fell under a compulsory education, so it didn't require any tuition fees. Eastsea Academy was a Soul Master academy and the intermediate academy took up two thirds of the total area. On the other hand, the advanced academy, which only took up one third of the area, was still the most important part of the academy.
As long as one was a Soul Master and resided within the greater area of Eastsea City, or had a recommendation letter, one would be able to enter the intermediate academy and receive a Soul Master's education. They would study at the intermediate academy for six years. After graduating, students would then be able to take the entrance exam to enter an advanced Soul Master academy, but no more than a tenth of the applicants pass.
Advanced academies weren't part of the compulsory education, so a series of rigorous exams would be used to test the applicants. Anyone who was accepted into an advanced academy would definitely be considered an elite.
If it was said that elementary academies taught the basic Soul Master and martial soul knowledge, then intermediate academies taught students how to use this knowledge and the direction in which they take to cultivate their martial souls. Their studies still wouldn't truly begin until they entered an advanced academy.
Gloxinia passed through the gates and began walking on a wide, tree-lined road that cut through a courtyard. The road was paved with limestone, which gave it a simple and unadorned appearance.
Liu Yuxin smiled. "For the sake of everyone's safety, the academy doesn't allow the use of vehicles within its grounds. If any vehicles enter campus grounds, they will have to immediately head off to the side and enter the underground parking lot. The advanced academy division is on the west side, while the rest of the campus is part of the intermediate academy."
Thanks to this senior sister's introductions, Gloxinia quickly understood that the academy wasn't as simple as he had first thought.
The intermediate academy's school building was located on the east side of the campus grounds. It was a massive building with twelve floors in total. The upperclassmen would be in the higher floors while the newer students would be on the lower floors. Being a first grader student himself, Gloxinia would be attending classes on the first and second floors.
"Those are the administrative offices over there. Go on over and report in. Your dormitory should be behind the school building. If you need anything in the future, come over to the advanced academy and find me. I'm a first grader in class one of the advanced academy."
"Thank you Senior Sister."
As she looked at the junior brother who had thanked her countless times, Liu Yuxin couldn't help but giggle and smile. "No need to be so restrained. The atmosphere in the academy is very good. I wish you good luck. You'll be assigned a class once you're done reporting, then you'll be tested. You'll gain some benefits if you do well in these tests."
Gloxinia's eyes followed the departing figure of Liu Yuxin until he couldn't see her anymore. It was only then that he entered the administration building.
Thanks to the recommendation as well as the metal placard Liu Yuxin had given him, the enrollment procedures were completed without a hitch.
Two sets of the school uniform were provided free of charge, as well as a dormitory key. He wouldn't receive any learning materials until his first class.
He had been assigned to class five of the first graders. From now on, he was a new student at Eastsea Academy.
Gloxinia greeted everyone as he walked past the school building. He soon arrived at the dormitory, which was nearly as tall as the school building as it also contained twelve floors. His dorm room was on the first floor, room number 108.
The corridor was noisy and in disarray as countless new students were reporting in during these last few days. The noise also wasn't limited to just the new students; parents who accompanied their children were also contributing to the chaos.
After some difficulties, Gloxinia was able to find his dorm room. The door was already open and there was already someone inside.
Inside of the room were two bunk beds, enough to accommodate four people. In addition, there were two square desks, four chairs, two cabinets and a roof lamp. This was the entirety of the room's features.
The two bottom bunks were already occupied and the occupants cast their gazes towards Gloxinia as he walked into the room.
The one on the bottom left bunk was much taller than Gloxinia. He was at least half a head taller than Gloxiniaa in addition to having a thicker build. He had medium-length hair that spiked out and eyes that bulged outwards somewhat. Even at such a young age, he had an air of ferocity around him.
The student on the right side was thinner and more elegant looking in comparison. His hair was gently combed to the side, covering one of his eyes giving him a elegant and gentle appearance.
"Hello, my name is Gloxinia. I have just arrived." Gloxinia looked at the two occupants on the left and right bottom bunks, acknowledging them as he introduced himself.
The elegant looking studently gently nodded and said, "My name is Zhang Yangzi. Rank 22 Soul Grandmaster."
Gloxinia smiled as he nodded in acknowledgement. The tall student on the other side rolled his eyes and said, "Newcomer, at least place your things down on a bed before introductions. Anyway, i'm Wang Jinxi, Rank 23 Soul Grandmaster. How about you?"
Scratching the back of his neck awkwardly, Gloxinia walked towards the bed on top of Zhang Yangzi's bed and placed his rucksack on top of it while he started to talk, "Hehe, im a Rank 28 Soul Grandmaster!"
As a sneaky grin formed on Gloxinia's face, he turned to see his roommate's shocked faces.
Zhang Yangzi came out of his shocked stupor first and stammered, "Rank 28? How's that even possible?"
"Yeah, how's that possible?" Coming out of his own stupor, Wang Jinxi echoed Yangzi.
Slyly grinning to himself, Gloxinia said, "I'm just built different"
