Chapter 55 – Gifted (2/2)

The day was getting weirder and weirder for everyone, they just didn’t understand why everyone seemed to be favouring Ye Wei!

Xiao Qi’s mind was full of resentment and unwillingness. He couldn’t let this go without making Ye Wei suffer! ‘The evidence is right here! The proof of Ye Wei’s offence was the classroom, itself! Even if the tutor favoured Ye Wei, there is no escape for this class skipping rascal.’

“The act of skipping school for three days is not always against the rules now, is it? The tutor calmly stared at Xiao Qi as his face darkened.

He was annoyed by Xiao Qi. ‘Ye Wei is Master Yi’s one and only legacy apprentice, and even people as high up as the principle and the vice principal have to pay Master Yi respect!’

‘Xiao Qi you little brat, why would I look for trouble on your behalf?’

As the tutor’s mind wandered, the class was still completely lost while trying to understand the situation. It was a written rule that students at South Star Academy are not allowed to skip school but Ye Wei skipped three days. Ye Wei had been bullied in the past, but that should not exclude him from being the subject of the school’s discipline policies!

Xiao Qi looked irritated and the rest of the class looked puzzled. Everyone that is, but the three martial family boys, they were secretly chuckling as they could guess why the tutor was behaving this way. ‘Haha, why would a junior class tutor dare punish Master Yi’s apprentice? No tutors are in the position to do so!’

“South Star Academy has strict rules against class skipping, but that only applies to students in junior, intermediate, and senior class!”

“The school board has made a decision to reassign Ye Wei to the class of the gifted!” The tutor briefly gave Xiao Qi a cold look, then turned to Ye Wei and said with a friendly tone, “Let’s all congratulate Ye Wei”

“What!?”

“Ye Wei? Class of the gifted?”

The announcement bombarded Xiao Qi’s mind like thunder. He felt dizzy and struggled to breathe normally. ‘Ye Wei? Did I hear correctly? Since when is he qualified to be in that class?! He is a talentless one star Student!’

“A student in the class of the gifted can show up to lectures whenever they please, and this is one of the privileges Ye Wei has earned!” The tutor added.

The martial family boys were the first in the class to stand up, and they winked and bowed at Ye Wei, “Brother Ye, congratulations!”

“Gifted as you are it was only the matter of time before you got reassigned!”

“Ye Wei! Don’t forget about us although you won’t be among us!”

The rest of the class started cheering, “Congrats Ye Wei, you are our pride!” Ye Wei’s classmates were a bit confused as nobody knew the details yet, but the tutor’s words were enough. There was no reason to doubt what he said regarding Ye Wei being reassigned.

Nobody even cared about the pale and spaced out Xiao Qi at this point.

“Ye…Ye Wei! You really made it into the gifted class?!” Cao Ning’s eyes were widened as he disbelievingly staring at Ye Wei like an owl.

“Erm… Yea I guess so.” Ye Wei scratched his head and nodded. He realized now that the academy might have learned that he had become Master Yi’s legacy apprentice.
