Si Junni scanned the entire room. Where she went didn’t really matter…
But then, she suddenly spotted a familiar face.
It was the male teacher who had given her the running breathing technique and physical training materials when she arrived near the school that morning.
Si Junni stepped forward and asked, “Teacher, which school are you from?”
“Me…? I-I’m from F-Forty-Seven!”
Deng Ning wondered if it was really as he imagined—could this be a stroke of incredible fortune…?
Si Junni nodded politely, then turned back to answer Old Zheng’s question. “I’ll go to Forty-Seven!”
“N-No, not Forty-Seven, it’s Forty-Seven! I-I-I stutter!”
Si Junni was taken aback. Don’t teachers in this world need to pass Mandarin proficiency tests? And he stutters?
“Alright, I’ll have someone help you with the paperwork later.”
Old Zheng remembered that another S-Rank Earth Element Awakener had also come from this Forty-Seven High School. It wouldn’t be a bad idea for his disciple to go there!
Building connections, hehe.
After Si Junni’s matter was settled, the big shots shifted their attention to Lu Yu and the burly Earth Element Awakener.
Si Junni wasn’t in a hurry to leave. She wanted to hear what offers the big shots would make to them. The other principals looked rather awkward—why wasn’t she leaving?
With a student present, they… couldn’t really perform at their best.
Si Junni pretended not to understand their glances. Not only did she not leave, but she also took a couple of familiar steps forward and struck up a conversation with Lu Yu.
This Lu Yu was the only classmate the original “Si Junni” hadn’t disliked.
He was also the class monitor, having helped her out of many tight spots and even tried to teach “Si Junni” how to refuse and stand up for herself.
But “Si Junni” refused to listen. Instead, she deliberately distanced herself and avoided him because of his kindness.
Over time, Lu Yu gave up. He only stepped in to say a few words when he saw someone bullying “Si Junni,” but he no longer meddled in other unnecessary matters.
If someone couldn’t stand up for themselves, no amount of help from others would be useful.
High school courses were quite demanding, requiring not only physical skills and combat training but also a lot of theoretical knowledge.
Subjects like Aberrant Beast Studies, Potion Science, Mutated Botany, Command Studies…
No one had the time to help an ordinary classmate who refused to stand up for herself.
“Monitor, good morning. You’re looking well today.”
Lu Yu was surprised that Si Junni would come over and talk to him. How could she change so much in just a few days!
Si Junni didn’t care about others’ opinions. If anyone had the ability, they could produce evidence that she wasn’t “Si Junni.” Otherwise, they’d just have to accept her new personality.
Constantly pretending to be someone she wasn’t would be too boring.
As expected, Lu Yu nodded naturally and replied, “Hello, Si Junni.”
“Classmate, are you from Forty-Seven High? We’ll be schoolmates from now on. What’s your name?” Si Junni asked the S-Rank Earth Element Ability Awakener.
“I… I’m Tu Yaoyao…”
Si Junni gave a thumbs-up. Truly worthy of an S-Rank Earth Element Awakener! Not only was there a homophone in the name, but there were also six “earth” radicals!
Tu Yaoyao indeed came from a poor family. Before today, he had never been in the spotlight. Every day, his thoughts weren’t about whether he could Awaken or about going to the Battlefield to fight mutant beasts and become a hero for humanity!But… whether I could eat my fill, whether I could buy warmer clothes after the weather changed, and when I could pay off all those debts.
And today, after Awakening, my mind went completely blank, and now I’m just in a daze.
Si Junni asked the two, “Which school do you want to go to? Let me introduce them to you?”
Si Junni decided to win some favor for herself, so she took control of the situation directly. Without waiting for anyone to refuse, she started acting as if they were already close friends!
“This is Principal Wu of our Huaxia University. He is incredibly powerful, upright, and straightforward—never one for petty schemes or hidden agendas.
Since I was young, I’ve had a special admiration for warriors who are willing to dedicate their entire lives to protecting all of humanity. Everyone knows Principal Wu’s past experiences.
For the sake of his teammates behind him, he didn’t hesitate to sacrifice one of his arms. With a principal like this, tell me, wouldn’t you feel at ease?
He would rather endure hardship himself than give his students anything less than the best. On the battlefield, he fought with all his might, never retreating a single step until death. Yet after retiring, instead of returning to the rear to enjoy a peaceful life, he took on the heavy responsibility of education.
Continuing to contribute to all of humanity without regard for personal gain!
As for Huaxia University, needless to say, it is absolutely the holy land in the hearts of all Awakened. Most importantly, Principal Wu is never stingy with geniuses! He has great love in his heart and is truly a model for humanity!”
Si Junni got so into her role that she even moved herself to tears, her eyes reddening as she looked at Wu Laohu with an almost sacred expression.
Wu Zhenghu was even more affected. He straightened his posture, standing tall and rigid. It wasn’t that he had never heard flattery before, but why did this young girl’s words sound so pleasing? Every sentence struck a chord in his heart!
The last trace of displeasure he felt over Si Junni not coming to Huaxia University vanished completely! He looked at Si Junni with immense satisfaction—what a good child.
Lu Yu was just about to answer that his parents had graduated from Huaxia University, and Wu Laohu… was actually his uncle.
Naturally, he would also go to Huaxia University. But before he could say it… Si Junni began her performance again.
“This is Principal Zou of Haitian University. Everyone knows that Principal Zou is the core strategist of our human race!
Although Principal Zou has never officially served on the front lines of the border Battlefield, he has never missed a single battle concerning the survival of humanity!
During times without war, everyone can relax and rest a little, but only Principal Zou remains almost sleepless night after night!
Mutant beasts and Monster Beasts are also evolving. They’ve gained intelligence, learning many tactics from humans. Coupled with their numbers being several times that of humans, Principal Zou must devise new combat strategies suitable for humanity.
On top of that, he also has to manage Haitian University. I really wish Principal Zou could relax, sleep without a care in the world. Some kinds of exhaustion are invisible to everyone!
But we must understand that Principal Zou’s contributions are no less than anyone else’s!
Haitian University is located in Haitian City, with seven Spirit Qi Secret Realms nearby. Due to unstable Spiritual Energy, large-scale mutant beast riots often occur. Principal Zou has always insisted on leading the university’s students and local troops in joint combat!
In fact, because the school’s mortality rate is relatively high, he is often criticized by others.Regarding education, I must say, Principal Zou is operating on a whole other level! The wisdom of ordinary mortals cannot begin to comprehend him in the slightest, but I believe that under Principal Zou’s leadership, Haidian University will undoubtedly reach new heights!”
