"Today we are going to do a verbal examination and I will be the one to ask questions from you. These young masters will also join if they feel like it. Also, I won't be asking questions from every single one of you because this will just be a session to renew your memories before the final exam. So, do your best to please me and if you have anything to ask from me as well, you are always welcome to do so." Hua Ying explained with a warm smile.
"Really?" Lijun, who was seated at the front row, asked excitedly, his eyes sparkling like stars. Hua Ying chuckled seeing his son's excitement.
"Mn."
"Yey!" At his mother's reply, Lijun did a little victory dance right where he had been seated, earning a few weird looks from his fellow disciples while his family members shook their heads in amusement. They were already used to his behavior.
"Ok ok. Shall we begin then?" The still chuckling Hua Ying said, composing himself to begin the lesson.
"So... We will first start with history and then move to the current sect politics and then to practical knowledge such as the things you should know when you are out on night hunting. But only the people I call for answers can speak. Got it?"
"Yes, madam Lan." Everyone said in unison as Lan Wangji kept staring at his wife with eyes full of love and adoration. He loved how his beloved looked right now.
Oh, how he wished he could devour this bunny right now right there...but this wasn't a proper time. Lan Wangji sighed dejectedly as Hua Ying decided to pretend that he didn't know what his husband was thinking. He had a task at hand; okay?
"Okay. Let's begin then." He smiled encouragingly and after scanning the room for some time, he picked up a disciple from the Nie clan whom he clearly remembered from yesterday.
"You... Tell me everything you know about the heavenly realm."
"I... Heaven doesn't make contact with the mortal realm anymore. So..." The girl stuttered, not expecting to be picked up first out of everyone only to answer a question that isn't so easy.
"Hmm? So you didn't feel like learning about it. Yes?"
"..."
"Lan XueYun? Can you give me an answer?" Seeing the speechless maiden, Hua Ying called for his daughter who happily stood up to answer her mother.
"Heaven consists of both major and minor gods. They are divided into two classes, middle and upper class according to their ascension level and spiritual power. It is ruled by the heavenly emperor. After the banishment of the previous heavenly emperor Jun Wu, the flower crown martial god of Xianle, Xie Lian ascended to the throne. Then there is the crown prince and the crown prince-to-be. Also there are elemental masters, martial gods and civil gods beside other civil immortals reside in the heavenly realm."
"Well done, XueYun." Hua Ying praised her daughter with a proud smile, making the young lady blush under his adorning stare.
"Thank you, nia- Madam Lan." Hua Ying giggled at the slip up of his daughter but quickly composed himself to face the Nie disciple.
"So... you still think this knowledge is useless? Well then, what about you? Tell me, who are the original four calamities?" He picked up another one from yesterday's incident.
"Uh, the original four... it's... uh... Crimson Rain Sought Flower... Hua Cheng... Night Touring Green Lantern...Qi Rong. Black Water Submerging Boats...He- He Xuan? And- and..."
"And?"
"I can't remember, Madam Lan." Under Hua Ying's scrutinizing glare, the girl hung her head low as she admitted defeat.
