Chapter 211: Is This Even a Faculty? (1/2)
Bai Xiaofei rushed along, and by the time he saw the signboard of the Demon of Illusions, the registration time was already over. While approaching the Demon of Illusions’ place, doubt surfaced in his heart.
Weird, why is it so dead here? Along the way, for the other faculties, even if they were not packed full with people, there were still large crowds everywhere. Is it because the registration is ending? Um, that must be the case!
Bai Xiaofei consoled himself, yet he couldn’t avoid having a bad premonition. He felt like he had been tricked or something… And his suspicion was confirmed when he saw Chu Liuyun and the others who were so happy to see him.
“Fellow student, you must be Bai Xiaofei. I finally have the chance to see you in person. I have been watching all your matches. By the way, I am Yun Sheng, student of batch 197. My main puppet is a flute, I’m good at creating illusionary lands, and my hobby is singing. Of course, if you have any other hobbies, I am willing to learn them as well!” blurted Yun Sheng the moment he rushed toward Bai Xiaofei. The sudden overdose of information caused Bai Xiaofei to be stupefied.
Bai Xiaofei wasn’t able to remember much of what Yun Sheng said, but what he said gave Bai Xiaofei a feeling that it had been decades since this person had a chance to converse with anyone.
“Yun Sheng, don’t overdo it!” Chu Liuyun remarked coldly. This gave Yun Sheng a fright, causing him to quickly take two steps back.
“Junior, don’t mind me. It has been a very long time since I’ve seen someone new. I got carried away,” Yun Sheng promptly explained himself after being rebuked by Chu Liuyun. Bai Xiaofei broke out in cold sweat.
Sure enough… But even if there haven’t been many new people joining, you don’t have to be so excited right? I have met many seniors but none of them were this excited!
The doubt in Bai Xiaofei’s heart increased.
“It has been a while, my guardian,” said Chu Liuyun. She leisurely walked towards Bai Xiaofei and flashed him a sweet smile, a smile that put him in a short trance. Fortunately, he was able to immediately recover from the trance.
Illusion technique? Holy shit, this is quite strong! I didn’t even see her using her puppet!
“Oh…sorry, seniors. My celebration with my classmates went too late last night…”
“Don’t worry about it. You are not late at all. In fact, you arrived just in time. Don’t feel bad,” said the triplets, who had been incomparably dispirited when they thought Bai Xiaofei wasn’t joining. Even Bai Xiaofei’s apology was pushed away. Once again, Bai Xiaofei was stunned.
Such easygoing seniors?
Bai Xiaofei began, “Then—”
“You’re here to join the Demon of Illusions, right?”
Again, Bai Xiaofei’s words were interrupted. This time, it was the pretty middle-aged woman who had interrupted him. Her deep voice gave Bai Xiaofei a jolt, while the passionate seniors all turned nervous at the question. Everyone fixed their gazes at Bai Xiaofei.
A gaze was definitely something with a destructive power. At the very least, right this moment, these gazes were causing Bai Xiaofei to be flustered. He had a feeling that if he said “no”, something bad would happen. He gulped, and for the sake of his personal safety, he nodded with a soft “um”.
“Sign this then. After signing it, you will officially be a part of the Demon of Illusions,” said the pretty middle-aged woman as a form appeared in her hand. All the blanks in the form had already been filled; the only thing left was for Bai Xiaofei to sign it.
After reading through the form several times, Bai Xiaofei confirmed that this was a regular registration form. Thus, he picked up the pen and signed his name. But for some reason, he felt like he had just sold himself into slavery…
“Welcome, Student Bai Xiaofei. From today, you are a member of Starnet Academy’s Demon of Illusions!”
