Chapter 1020: Chapter 1018: Home Science Examination Chapter 1020: Chapter 1018: Home Science Examination “Does it look familiar?”

President Cass, clearly a man unsure of dawdling, quickly led the way triumphantly in front.

Before long, he pointed at a gray and white building not far away and asked,

“This is one of the busiest places in the Academy,”

“Doesn’t look familiar.”

Fu Qian glanced and responded directly, not minding exposing his own neglect of duty.

“Not looking familiar is normal because this is the territory of the Divine Ashes Institute, hehehehe…”

The President of Heaven’s Commencement Institute let out a string of ridiculously cheap laughter.

“So, the means to enter that place hasn’t been sent to Heaven’s Commencement?”

Fu Qian nodded slightly, deep in thought.

Cass led him deeper into the Academy rather than outside; he certainly didn’t think the Forbidden Area was right here, but deduced that the way to enter might be somewhat special.

Are you just going to show up and defile Divine Ashes’s treasures that aren’t even normally touched? Isn’t that just like publically cuckolding someone?

The President is indeed a man of great temper; much to my liking.

“No, it’s just that I couldn’t wait!”

Cass continued with his vile laughter.

“But theoretically, that already belongs to Heaven’s Commencement Institute, and having helped them so much this time, using their venue for a scientific exam shouldn’t bother Divine Ashes.”

“That is reasonable,”

Fu Qian agreed completely.

As they spoke, they didn’t stop walking and had already progressed around the corner to the front entrance.

Seen from close quarters, unlike Swordsmanship Department’s lofty elegance, and Heaven’s Commencement’s brutish simplicity, the building before him had a distinctly eerie quality to it.

It was clearly made of pure white stone, yet under the current lighting, it had an indescribable shade of light gray completely enveloping it.

From certain angles, the varying shades of gray even formed patterns similar to wood grain.

It seemed a kind of Extraordinary Effect was protecting the entire building, covering it inside and out.

Fu Qian quietly assessed,

Impressive!

Divine Ashes has its reasons for its proud and haughty demeanor each day.

Even the person welcoming guests at the door was— a Fourth Order Transcendent?

As Fu Qian evaluated, the figure who had been standing inside the door appeared to notice them and promptly walked straight over.

Tall and wearing a gown made only of black and white, she even wore a pair of rimless glasses on her face.

The newcomer seemed determined to present herself as a high-brow female intellectual, but the enticing twist in her waist and her dynamic movements, akin to a Water Snake, along with her misty, elongated eyes, completely twisted that effort into a uniform seduction.

“You’re late.”

At this moment, the lady in uniform stood before them, staring at Cass, the tone unpleasant.

A welcoming staff shouldn’t look like this, nor is it likely they would speak to Cass in such a manner.

Fu Qian stayed silent, waiting for Cass to introduce her.

“Got a bit too excited last night, accidentally overslept.”

Facing the questioning, Cass’s smile remained as he came up with an excuse instantly.

“This is Tutor Lisa; your lab will be right next to hers. She will be joining us for today’s scientific exam and will help show you around afterward.”

After this insincere casual talk, Cass turned to Fu Qian to introduce,

“Lisa, I guess I don’t need to introduce this gentleman to you.”

“No need, hello, Lord Demigod.”

The tutor called Lisa assessed Fu Qian for a moment—her greeting lacked much respect.

It was clear that the title of demigod couldn’t intimidate her.

“At least you should have told me… running around someone else’s turf so arrogantly, and you let me arrive so early. Can you imagine what I just went through? It was like each person looked at me as if they’d seen a stepmother!”

Meanwhile, Lisa was clearly still angry, and it sounded like she really had a tough time.

“That makes sense, it’s getting late indeed, let’s get started.”

Cass chuckled at that, and with an extremely stiff logical transition, he took the lead.

Fu Qian followed him inside, feeling like he had passed through a barrier, and even a mix of “smells” hit his face.

It was said to be a smell, but in essence, it was on the level of consciousness, similar to the emotional ripples created earlier by Wen Li, only much more mysterious, and much more assorted—a veritable old cellar vibe.

Reflecting on the nature of Divine Ashes, it was probably a result of years of testing, concocted under the wrap of that barrier.

Of course, compared to Heaven’s Commencement Institute, the ambiance was slightly more elegant.

The interior was also very solemn; wherever they passed, almost everyone wore some sort of ceremonial robe, even more stern than those at the Swordsmanship Department.

Experiencing this different departmental culture, Cass had already made his way downward.

And just as Lisa had said, along the way, the trio received quite a bit of attention, and the emotions were as complicated as office workers watching a burly man walk to their home.

“I hate coming here; it always takes me several days to recover.”

With someone else to draw attention, Lisa relaxed a lot, but she didn’t forget to complain as they walked.

“Especially down here, the deeper we go, the more disgusting it gets, just like…”

The woman hesitated, apparently considering a metaphor.

“Like your brain ate shit?”

Seeing that she unconsciously stared at him, Fu Qian thought it over and offered a suggestion.

“Exactly, like your brain ate shit—and you don’t even know how to puke it back out.”

Lisa’s eyes lit up, and she decisively took his suggestion.

“No wonder you’re a demigod, so perceptive.”

“Just seen a lot,” Fu Qian responded modestly, in the face of his colleague’s false praise.

“This is the place, mind the shit; there might be a lot.”

Hearing the sharp commentary of the two institute elites, Cass appeared to have no concern about damaging departmental relations and even kindly reminded them that they’d arrived.

At the end of the corridor, there was a door, shaped quite irregularly.

Cass was just about to knock when the door already opened from the inside.

In the dim light, a slightly chubby face emerged, coldly sizing up the three.

He looked somewhat familiar.

Fu Qian immediately commented.

If he wasn’t mistaken, this man had also been in the audience yesterday, even seated quite prominently.

This man was skilled; likely, he’d heard the trio’s conversation just now, so the intense negative emotions were understandable.

In fact, directly opening the door without a knock was already demonstrating this point.

“President Cass, you’ve arrived.”

His gaze swept over the three faces, lingering particularly long on Fu Qian, before this man coldly called out.

“Please follow me.”

“No trouble, Professor Shein.”

Oblivious to the other’s negative emotions, Cass greeted him warmly.

“We only need a few hours.”

A few hours, tops?

Although Lisa felt slightly embarrassed having been caught talking ill behind someone’s back, watching her boss’s shameless performance, including the newly minted demigod beside her, made her sentiments much more composed in an instant.

Becoming a demigod certainly required an extraordinary quality.
