"Professor Peleg, what are you doing here? Don't you have a lecture going on at this time? Why aren't you over there enlightening your students on your Water Law?"
"I could say the same for you, Professor Yoki. Did you really abandon your lecture just to come here for some credits?" Professor Peleg scoffed.
"For some credits, you say? Don't be ridiculous, Professor Peleg," Professor Yoki coldly snorted and said, "You know best just how valuable every unit of credit is for status advancement!"
"Do you think I want to be an Outer Palace Professor forever? I want to enter the Inner Palace and touch upon the higher laws!" Professor Yoki stated.
"With your talent? Just be content with being an Outer Palace Professor, Peleg. You have cultivated for ten million years and still haven't condensed a sliver of King-level Divine Aura. Even if you earned enough credits to enter the Inner Palace, you will just be bullied by others," another Professor-rank fish-man disciple spoke.
