After the 5 min, Sol entered Class A and saw the Vivi and Nolan chatting with each other sitting in the front, Behind them were Lex and Lily. Lex was trying to start a conversation but Lily kept ignoring him.
Looks like everyone arrived early
Both of the sisters knew Lex from childhood and they often played together, And ever since childhood, Lex had a crush on Lily. Lily was also aware of his feelings but she herself was embarrassed to admit it. And right now she was upset because he hadn't even talked to her ever since Entrance Exam and even ranked higher than her.
Sol went and sat behind Lex and lily.
I just wanna see how my favourite characters interact in daily life, wait maybe I shouldn't call them characters anymore.
Just then Phoebe entered the class scanned the classroom as if searching for some one, And after few seconds she looked at Sol, walked up and sat beside Sol.
Before Sol could think, She looked at him wearing a faint smile and said
"Hello"
"Hello" Sol replied curtly trying to hide his nervousness.
"What's your name" She asked me staring into his eyes.
"Solace Wright" Sol said while averting his gaze from her eyes
Noticing this a smile appeared on her face, And added
"Phoebe Frostbane, I'm sure you've heard."
"Yes, I've heard. Layer 7 Frost Potential and has most rare Thread, Thread of Hunger. You were also called Snow child on news." Sol replied, complimenting her with a little grin on his face.
As soon as she heard the last statement she coughed a little and said in a embarrassed tone
"Th-Thank you"
Sol purposefully added the last remark because how much she embarrassed of her nick name on TV.
I don't how much of my Threads and stats can she see, But I am sure Its because of my Threads.
Just when they were getting awkward, Phoebe suddenly asked
"Hey, what's with those teeth"
I hesitated for second and said
"When I was little, I used to think vampires were so cool, So...Yeah"
Just like that Sol closed his eyes and was ready to hear a laugh, but much to his surprise she said
"Used to?? Do you not think they are? I think they are still pretty cool."
Just when Sol was going to reply The Homeroom teacher walked in,
She had a authoritative presence And had long black hair, brown eyes and had a strict demeaner.
Grabbing everyone's attention she said in a upright manner
"Welcome to Weave, I am your Homeroom teacher for Next Three year's, Mel Rivia."
Without waiting for anyone she continued.
"Because it's your first day we'll skip the theory lecture's and take a light spar, Now follow me to the Sparring room"
Saying that, She started moving toward the door. And behind her One by one everyone followed.
Phoebe was still walking beside Sol, It seemed she had taken quite bit of interest in Sol.
'I mean I like the attention, especially my favorite character, But I feel little uneasy.'
With that said, we arrived at the arena, Where another professor was standing. He was muscular and had body which looked like It only knows how to lift.
We quickly changed into sparing outfit.
After that Their Homeroom introduced:
"This is Mike Winterheart. Your Sparring instructor, Which also will teach Hand to Hand and Weapon Technique's"
Sol thought he would hear a harsh voice instructing him to lift a mountain, But what he got was jolly man.
Professor Mike had a jolly expression on his face and said in cheerful tone.
"Hello, Students I am sure you are excited for your first class, So let's not waste anymore time. Partner up with someone and form a line,"
As Sol was lost in thought, Phoebe approached him and pulled him out
"Hey, Wanna spar" As soon as she said that everyone in the class started to stare at them.
The room froze for a moment.
"Wait, what?" one boy whispered to his friend.
"She's picking him?" another muttered.
Sol clearly uncomfortable with this much attention in low voice" I don't think, I am strong enough and I am Rank 50-"
"You'll do fine." Phoebe interrupted, tossing him an extra set of gloves. They landed in his lap. "Come on. Unless you're scared."
Her tone wasn't cruel—it was playful, challenging. But the weight of dozens of eyes on him made his chest tighten. Around them, the class started buzzing.
"Is she serious?"
"What if he gets wrecked in the first thirty seconds?"
Sol looked up at her, expression caught between hesitation and something else—something like a spark. For the first time, everyone in the room was waiting on him to move.
'I was kinda excited to spar but....' Fuck it
Phoebe smirked again, leaning closer so only he could hear. "Don't worry. I'll hold back." Then, more softly: "I just want to see what you've got."
And just like that, the class's strongest girl and the quietest boy became the center of the room.
Later Professor started calling up names and the first was
"Rank-1 Lex Brightburn vs Rank-5 Nolan Goodwill" Professor announced and added"Remember No Threads, No weapons, Only Hand to Hand combat"
With that commotion died down, Both of them approached arena.
Both of them took stance, Lex had a more trained and tight stance with fists clenched, While Nolan had more sloppy stance with lose shoulders and and fists.
With both of them on stage everyone was excited to see the Rank 1 fight.
Before that happened Sol decided to see Stats of Nolan
With that he said while looking at Nolan.
"System"

Same as Novel, no changes. He also had his powers unsealed after the Entrance exam. That's why, Despite Academy's High layer Eye Artifact, we both could cheat our threads into academy. Otherwise the whole world would be in covering the news about a Thread that's never seen before.
As I was lampooning Professor's voice resounded in the room
"Start"
And it began
