Chapter 228: Mist Bodhisattva Royal Academy of Sciences [Part 2]

Cillin turned to look. The school’s security guards had ran over to pull the students aside. Although the people of both sides were covered in blue and black bruises, overall no one was seriously injured. At the very least, their injuries weren’t life threatening.

When both parties had dispersed from the scene, the onlookers were almost gone too.

“Let’s go. Time to look for Three and Four.” said Cillin after he stood up and patted the grass on his person.

Bel pressed his hand horizontally across his forehead and peered at the surrounding school buildings. “And where do we find them? The hostel? I think they’re about to start class immediately.”

“Cillin, the electronic bulletin board over there displays the students overall result ranking!” The gray cat raised its paw and pointed down a certain direction.

A large bulletin board could be seen not far down that direction. It was specifically used by the school to announce the result of every overall test.

“Let’s check that our first and see if Three and Four are on the list.”

Cillin and Bel walked towards the bulletin board. Because the overall result ranking had been displayed for some time, not many people were staring at it.

Bel went up and down the top 100 name list under first grade students. Then, he said regretfully, “I don’t see Three or Four.”

“They’re there. Check out No. 31 and No. 37.” Cillin pointed at the names so Bel could see them.

“No. 31 Chang Xiao, and No. 37 Chang Fu? Isn’t it Three and Four?”

“Three and Four are their nicknames. Chang Xiao and Chang Fu are their true names.” Cillin explained*.

“I see.”

*In Chinese, Chang Xiao means “Eversmile” and Chang Fu means “Everblessed”. Also, I’d like you all to recall from Chapter 218 Part 2 that commoner kids aren’t normally given true names unless they grew up or encountered some special circumstances, which Three and Four did by entering this school.

Cillin moved his finger and tapped at Chang Xiao and Chang Fu’s name on the control panel beneath the bulletin board. It displayed their classes, the lessons they were currently attending and their classrooms.

Inside the school’s monitoring room, a person said, “Eh? Someone actually checked Chang Xiao and Chang Fu’s data today. Speaking of which, Chang Xiao and Chang Fu are commoners, aren’t they?”

Every operation to the bulletin board was displayed inside the monitoring room.

“They are commoners.” Another person said, “They ranked about 80 or so when they passed the admission test, but now they’re in the top 50 already. Their potential is pretty good. No one has ever checked their data until today though.”

The duo stopped paying attention after conversing briefly. After all, too many things happened everyday. They were used to unusual occurrences already.

Meanwhile, Bel and Cillin got ready to visit the classroom Chang Three and Chang Four were in. But since there were still two hours before end of class, they decided to take a stroll around the school first.

The school’s environment was pretty good, but there were also plenty of young boys and girls doing lovey dovey things in some quiet and remote forests. Almost all of them were of noble descent. Cillin felt a muscle in his face twitching constantly as Bel peeped around corners with a vulgar look on his face.

He was a genuine prince of the Blazing Eagle royal family! God knows what kind of thrilling reaction would be invoked from the citizens of Mist Bodhisattva Empire if they ever learned of their prince’s conduct.

The gray cat that had ran into the bushes to catch some small insects jumped back onto Cillin’s shoulder. Its mouth was still covered in pollens because it just ate two big butterflies. After licking its claws and wiping the corner of its mouth once, it patted Cillin and said, “Let’s leave, it’s going to rain immediately!”

Cillin looked at the sky. It was true that there were clouds floating towards their direction, but it didn’t look like it was going to rain.

Although it didn’t look like it, Cillin still did as the gray cat said. He waved at Bel once before running to a self-service vending machine to purchase two umbrellas. He was going to buy four umbrellas, but there were only two left inside this vending machines.

Although technological advancement was rapid these days, some primitive tools like this one hadn’t been phased out of the competition yet. Not many changes were made to these umbrellas either. A lot of people very much enjoyed holding a primitive tool like this and walking under a natural rain, experiencing the world that was being washed away by rain water. It was because natural and mild rain wasn’t available in many places.

As was predicted, the amount of clouds on the sky suddenly increased five minutes later. Raindrops began to pitter patter from the sky. The young lovers holding their trysts hastily broke away from their spots. Some of the children remote controlled their flying cars to come fetch them immediately, while the wilder ones held each other’s hands and ran across the rain while laughing.
