The recent developments seem to have shaken everyone in the zone. It was also unsurprising that personal connections have influenced the state the academy once more. Chunji seemed indifferent to the entire instruction of a new faction. Another faction only meant more competition a facet of the academy that Chunji was unwilling to participate in.
"I will be going now." With the ceremony now accomplished, Chunji left his peers to their own devices. As of right now, today was free for the rest of them.
The chitter chatter of the compact's students made it clear where Chunji would head next. Ideally, he'd like to visit Professor Lumyr's lab, but he needed to head to the clinic first.
For one, he needed to check on Davil and Steeler's conditions.
Davil's was a personal responsibility. After all, Chunji had healed him within the leyline and he had returned in a worse conditions than before. Was it because he had decided to heal Davil? If so, then the blame lay entirely on Chunji regardless of the leyline accident. As for Steeler, he wanted to check on her to see if she had fared well in her separate incident.
Arriving at the clinic, he walked up to the nearest faculty that would take his inquiry. "Hello? My name is Yi Chunji, I'm here to visit my classmates Davil Wund and... Steeler's conditions. Are their conditions healthy enough to permit visitation?"
The other reason was that he wanted to see how the clinic operated. Back in the village, the technology there was rather rustic. Seeing a clinic in a more modernized setting would help in this endeavor. Perhaps he would inquire later if he could also help around the clinic. After all, Emelie was a librarian, maybe he could help out as an intern of sorts.

"Currently they're nine compacts, excluding ours, that each have eight students. Other than the compacts they're other groups, who I assume are taking the standard course, that have twenty to thirty students each. They're faculty, including Principal Raja, situated around the area of the Attunement Zone. Other than the Pillar, nothing else stands out."
Chunji answered Otis's question as he followed his classmate. The penchant for trouble seemed to have grown with every passing hour. With Otis's question bringing unwanted attention, it was about to hit everyone in the class as collateral damage. Though with their track record, Chunji reckoned his classmate would be undisturbed by such a thing.
Though the passing comment from Compact 4 made Chunji narrow his eyes. "Inconvenience." It was small mutter but loud enough for those nearby him to hear.

@Nanaya
May I ask for an estimate on how many people are in each compact and how many compacts are there?

Chunji's personal feelings did not resonate with his peer's enthusasim in choosing sides. Perhaps he was too nihilistic or pessimistic about the entire event, but he couldn't understand their passion. From what he saw from his eyes, it was little more than spectacle that would turn into a ticking time bomb with the actors he'd seen throughout the school.
What he saw from the world...
It was indescribable.
The moment someone attuned with the golden pillar, it started many intricate processes. The identifying, authenthicating, assimilating, tethering, imprinting, and many more. It was only simple conjecture that Chunji had formulated, what was actually unknown to him. A present magnum opus of essence that-
The scent of iron interrupted Chunji's thought process. A burning sensation ruminated in his head that lead Chunji to impulsively wipe his nose. A brief touch gave him a quick answer.
Blood.
Chunji immediately withdrew his Ethos and stopped usage. "Hmmm." A new limit had been discovered. A new limit to be tested. Another subject to be studied at a later time. His compact had been called and Ms. Ventaura had declared her afflilation. An unexpected designation, but something that wouldn't have bothered Chunji.
Finding himself next in line, Chunji walked up to take a spot at the pillar. His hand grazing his pillar itself. Chunji had reminded himself of what the pillar was.
An precipice of knowledge that build its base through blood, sweat, and tears from a suspicious source. He wouldn't stop it from connecting with him, but he could restrict what would it access.
Chunji tried his best to guide the pillar on where it could attune. It was an instinctual process, but one Chunji tried his hardest at. The pillar reached out and Chunji met it halfway. The pillar of the Primal didn't come, as expected, but the others did. One by one, he guided them to only assimilate at his hand. Perhaps it was pointless, but Chunji felt that he needed to try.
Isolating the place of contact to his right hand, Chunji called out his side.
"Sword of Wund."
The delivery in tone left much to be desired.

Got it, okay.
Perhaps it was the norm to have inexplicable entrances that Chunji wasn't aware of. From the auditorium to the leylines, there was now a fountain that Rio had disappeared into. It did stoke curiosity but also made Chunji more cautious about his future activities, from Rio and Chloe's secret to Davil's incompetence to his other classmates' eccentricities.
A sigh escaped before Chunji turned and headed back to the Attunement Zone. He'd make it in time if he started walking now.
There were a few things that perturbed Chunji. One was the lack of address regarding potential problems. If Principal Raja had been informed and aware of everything, Chunji did not perceive a reaction on her part. The woman was an enigma to the school's slogan. At the end of the day, her tenure as Principal may be just another step in her career. Chunji was sure that Rio would have a snarky remark or two about her.
However, what happened next at the Attunement Zone would no less lead to unnecessary conflict that Chunji would seclude himself from. Whatever rivalries may develop, Chunji had no interest in them aside from making Rio's life a little harder than usual.

Snakes were said to be cold-blooded creatures, and folk tales of the Yi Family lineage often spoke about how closely connected they were to the Great Serpent. Oddly enough, Chunji felt that his blood was boiling underneath his skin. He was starting to understand Emelie's feelings at the library when he minced words at her. The insinuations, the accusations, and the amount of slander that Rio had thrown were burning the bridge faster.
"Ho... I apologize in that case. I mistook an aspect of your character," Chunji coldly said.
Projection was something Rio was most apt at. Approval? If Chunji could tilt his perspective to a degree of bias like how Rio was doing, wasn't beating Alto's challenge nothing more than a way to exceed expectations? It was just to satiate one's own pride.
Why would he spill blood, sweat, and tears for a cause that didn't even interest him? To achieve a momentary relief that would prove inconsequential in the future?
Chunji refused to partake such tasks.
Though Rio had been right to a certain extent, Chunji did have something to prove. Rio's target for that approval, however, was extensively mismatched. Any insult directed towards himself was okay, but an indirect one to his parents was one that he would not have tolerated. The grip on his sword tightened. He would have liked nothing more than to draw his blade.
"As we have discuss the crux of the issue, there is nothing more to be said." With that said, Chunji turned and left the area. Once he felt Rio was also going, Chunji would have stepped aside and hid. The heat from his blood still resonated in him. He couldn't return to the ceremony like this.
If he had been the blood of a dog, he'd happily tear out Rio's throat then and there. However, Chunji had a cold bloodline.
He'd wait, and he'd strike.
"透过现象看本质"
The world revealed itself to Chunji's eyes. There were enough coincidences for Chunji to connect the thoughts between Rio and Steeler. Enough of that warranted Chunji staying a little longer and observing from afar.
Clearly, Steeler had gone off by herself and got caught along with Hildegrunde in some accident. Now Rio was going off by himself, and Chunji wasn't interested in being the Hildegrunde of the situation.
Now what will happen to Rio?
It was clear to Chunji that he involved himself with more trouble than it was worth.
