Chapter 27 Silver Moon Wolf (1/2)
”Oh, I'm really sorry.” Gao Peng shook his head. He never thought that he would actually cause Li Zigong that much trouble.
”Umm… Gao Peng, I have a presumptuous request to ask of you,” Tan Qianjin began awkwardly.
”Then it's best that you don't say it.” Gao Peng made the unpleasant decision to refuse him bluntly.
”…” Tan Qianjin choked on his words.
”Since you said yourself that it was a presumptuous request, it would be better left unsaid. Or else it might just make the both of us uncomfortable.” Gao Peng lowered his head and began to flip through his textbook.
”Alright.” Tan Qianjin rolled his eyes and turned his back to Gao Peng.
…
”Ahem, ahem!” A tall and large figure walked in from the door and stood at the podium.
All those who were chatting happily suddenly went quiet.
All the noise came to a sudden stop.
”Just now, the principal called for an emergency level meeting. From tomorrow onwards, throughout the whole world, all schools will have to undergo certain urgent reforms.” Murong Qiuye looked at the young faces that stood before her. She found it hard to break the news to them.
”Our school's junior high section as well as the senior high juniors will be moved to Chang'an Seventh High School premises. On the other hand, Seventh High's senior high sophomores and seniors will be moving to our premises. Of course, class will not change and all of you will be sticking to your original classes.
From today onwards, senior high sophomores will have to take an additional Familiar class. There will also be a new category of special admissions: Monster Trainer cadet. If you wish to become one, sign up with me after class. This decision has been passed jointly by the Alliance Education Department and the Alliance Armed Forces. Cadets with exceptional results will be granted direct admissions to the top colleges or military schools.”
There was silence initially, then the class exploded, like water suddenly coming to a boil. The students with poorer results were especially excited. This seemed to be a chance for their comeback.
Those students who already had plans to become combat Monster Trainers were also exhilarated. In no time at all, the class next door also erupted cheers.
Murong Qiuye did not stop her students from making noise, giving them the time to celebrate. Only after a few minutes did she finally bang on the table.
”Quiet!”
The classroom became silent.
”Do you all think that you all won't need to study language, mathematics and politics after you become cadets? Studying is for you to learn right from wrong, so that you can learn the right values and not simply follow the crowd. You will still have to study all the things that need to be learned. Do not simply neglect your studies after applying to be a cadet.” Just from the looks for the students in her class, it was clear that many of them still did not agree with what she just said. Murong Qiuye smiled to herself in resignation.
”Alright, I figure that nothing will go on if you all were to study right now. You all can take a break for now, but don't make too much noise. If you disrupt the class next door, I'll have you all go back to studying.”
”Gao Peng, come to my office for a while,” Murong Qiuye said as she left the classroom.
”Ms. Murong,” greeted Gao Peng as he entered the office. Currently, other than Ms. Murong, there was no one else in the office.
”Mm.” Murong Qiuye opened the spectacle box on her desk and put on her spectacles.
”You have done really well this time. You've even managed to get a intermediate Monster Breeder certificate. The principal brought up your name and praised your performance during the meeting.” Murong Qiuye looked at Gao Peng with a face full of approval.
”Tomorrow morning, when Seventh High students come over, the school hopes that you can represent the school to address the new students,” Ms. Murong began discussing with Gao Peng.
Gao Peng was stunned. To think that they would want him to be a student representative.
”No, no.” Gao Peng shook his head profusely.
Gao Peng thought that such things were too high profile for him. He did not enjoy being high profile.
