Chapter 20 A Terrible First Experience at School
Chapter 20 A Terrible First Experience at School
Spirit Hall Academy, here I come!
Upon entering the large tent with a row of tables, Qian Yuhan put down her heavy luggage and walked to one of the tables to inquire:
"Hello, I'm a new student. Is this where I sign in?"
The person in charge of registration on the other side of the table was probably a senior student who looked down on these newcomers. He didn't answer Qian Yuhan's question immediately.
He was casually picking his nose, completely oblivious to the stares of those around him. With that movement, a small clump of boogers stuck to his little finger. Then, without any attempt to hide it, he flicked his thumb, sending the disgusting mess flying to the side.
At this moment, he even crossed his legs, looking completely relaxed, as if he were the boss of the place. His posture and expression reminded one of those idle, loafing street thugs—a perfect example of a good-for-nothing!
The senior student in charge of registration looked up at Qian Yuhan and said lazily, "Yes, what's your name?"
Seeing that this person was treating her so disrespectfully, Qian Yuhan decided not to continue giving him a friendly look and said coldly, "Qian Yuhan."
"Qian Yuhan, Qian Yuhan..." the person muttered, slowly flipping through the sign-in book.
"Hey, hey, hey, can I cut in line? I'm Dai Shengxi, could you help me sign in, brother?"
A voice came from behind Qian Yuhan. A burly boy rushed out from behind Qian Yuhan, bumping into several people who were queuing behind her.
This guy named Dai Shengxi walked up to Qian Yuhan and said, "Can I cut in line?"
In Douluo Continent, the average age for enrollment is eight. Dai Shengxi seems to have been injected with growth hormones, as he is a head taller than Qian Yuhan and his body is also much stronger.
Qian Yuhan is already considered tall and strong among her peers, but Dai Shengxi is even more exaggerated. You'd think he was a teenager…
Qian Yuhan said coldly, "No, you have to go to the back of the line. There are so many people behind you, brother, this isn't a good idea."
Dai Shengxi had assumed Qian Yuhan would agree immediately and was smiling as he walked over to have Hui Ge, the person signing in, sign his name. But upon hearing Qian Yuhan's words, the smile on Dai Shengxi's face vanished instantly.
"I didn't hear you clearly, please say it again."
"Get in line at the back! Annoying. Hey bro, did you find my name?"
Qian Yuhan glanced at Dai Shengxi, then looked at Hui Ge, who was in charge of signing in, and said.
Upon hearing Qian Yuhan's words, Dai Shengxi instantly became angry; no one had ever spoken to him like that before.
"Go to hell with your sign-in book." With that, Dai Shengxi grabbed the sign-in book that Hui Ge was flipping through with both hands, and with a forceful jerk, flung the sign-in book away!
"you!--"
Even Hui, who was in charge of signing in, was getting a little angry. But he had heard people at school talk about this Dai Shengxi, saying that he was no ordinary person and that his family had powerful backers. So all he could manage to manage was a simple "you".
This Dai Shengxi is a notorious playboy. His father, Dai Tianheng, the head of the Dai family, is the captain of the second squadron of the surveillance brigade under Pope Shao Hui of the Spirit Hall, and holds a high position.
Knowing that Dai Shengxi had a powerful background, Brother Hui could only swallow his anger.
"roll!"
Qian Yuhan shouted in a deep voice.
The air around him seemed to grow colder, and Qian Yuhan's mood plummeted. From the very beginning, he had encountered a cold-hearted registration officer who treated new students poorly, followed by rude and uncouth people. This series of events drastically diminished his enthusiasm for his upcoming studies at the Spirit Hall Academy. His initial anticipation and excitement had been replaced by disappointment and anger. He couldn't help but doubt whether he had truly made the right choice to come here to study.
"You little brat, you're asking for death! Second Soul—"
Dai Shengxi stopped wasting time and directly released his martial soul—the Saber-toothed Ghost Tiger. Just as his second yellow spirit ring was about to light up, a sound came from the side:
"Who's causing trouble over there? Can't we even sign in properly?"
Everyone looked in the direction from which the sound came, and there stood Han Xue, the Dean of Students, welcoming the new students at the school gate.
Han Xue was welcoming new students at the school gate when she heard a commotion coming from the registration tent not far away, so she went over to see what was going on.
As soon as he entered the tent, he saw Dai Shengxi preparing to unleash his soul skill and quickly stopped him.
Then, noticing the sign-in book that Dai Shengxi had thrown to the ground, his expression immediately turned cold. Pointing at the sign-in book, he asked:
"What happened? Who did this?"
Everyone's eyes turned to Dai Shengxi, and Han Xue knew what was going on just by looking at their expressions.
What's your name?
“Dai Shengxi. Teacher, this is between him and me, you should not interfere.”
Dai Shengxi answered Han Xue's question and added a comment.
Han Xue closed her eyes, desperately trying to control her emotions. She was on the verge of exploding…
Han Xue opened her eyes, took a deep breath, and then continued to Dai Shengxi, "After you sign in, come to my office. My office is in office building 440. Has this student finished signing in?"
Then he looked at Qian Yuhan, who had his eyes closed, and said to the old man Hui, who was in charge of signing in.
Qian Yuhan, too lazy to look at Dai Shengxi, who was behaving like a clown, simply closed her eyes, out of sight, out of mind. Hearing Han Xue ask Hui Ge if he had signed in, she answered for him:
"No, he was disrupted before he could even find it."
Hui, who was standing to the side, sighed. He was startled when he heard Qian Yuhan suddenly open his mouth: he was afraid that Qian Yuhan would report him to the dean of students for neglecting the freshmen.
But Qian Yuhan didn't mention it, her gaze filled with gratitude as she looked at Qian Yuhan. She quickly picked up the sign-in book from the ground and flipped through it even faster than before, her eyes scanning it but not seeing the name "Qian Yuhan" before quickly turning to the next page…
They found out in less than five seconds and immediately put a checkmark next to the name.
Qian Yuhan's mood improved a bit. Looking at Hui Ge, she thought: This Hui Ge is quite sensible. He didn't mention how he neglected the freshmen. He's repaying a debt of gratitude, haha—
"Alright, I've signed it for you, Qian Yuhan. You're in Class 1, Grade 1. Go through the east gate of this teaching building at the back, and the first classroom on your left is your class. I see you applied to be a boarding student. The dormitory building is the northernmost building in the dormitory area on the north side of the playground, and the room number is... uh... 101. Well, take your time exploring the rest of the place. Have a great time studying!"
At the registration desk, Hui Ge's attitude did a complete 180-degree turn. He told Qian Yuhan his class and location, and even noticed that he had applied for accommodation, so he also told her where he would be staying.
Qian Yuhan: Hmm, this teacher has a strong, strong ability to control students…
After listening to the information Hui Ge shared, Qian Yuhan first bowed to Teacher Han beside her to express her gratitude, then nodded to Hui Ge, before picking up her heavy luggage and walking towards the dormitory area.
Qian Yuhan planned to first put her luggage away in the dormitory building, tidy up her own bed in the dormitory, and then go for a stroll around the campus.
