After handing the registration form to the tables of the five students, Li Xiao happily touched his chin and returned to the lecture table. “Students, other than this good
news, I have something else to inform everyone. The finals that were originally scheduled for this week have been postponed until next week. The competition’s organizing
committee has temporarily decided to arrange for the students who have entered the finals to go to Beijing to participate in pre-match training.”
After a pause, Li Xiao added excitedly, “I hope that these students who have entered the finals will take this opportunity to exchange and study with the top students in
Beijing and fight for good rankings for the school!”
After saying this, he raised his eyes to look at Mo Zhu, who had been sitting in her seat indifferently since just now. He emphasized in a low voice, “Also, no students are
allowed to apply for leave during the training before the competition this time. If you are taking leave during this period of time, you will not be able to participate in the
competition, please take it seriously!”
Upon hearing Li Xiao’s words, the students of Class Eight followed the man’s gaze and noticed Mo Zhu, who seemed to be nonchalant about entering the finals.
Seeing the girl sitting quietly on the chair and calmly playing with her phone without even looking at Li Xiao, everyone sighed silently in their hearts. She was indeed Sister
Mo. Her calm demeanor and aura were indeed not something ordinary people could compare to!
At this moment, Meng Ran was filling in the form seriously. Knowing that Mo Zhu was not interested in such things, she took the initiative to take Mo Zhu’s one from the
desk and filled it up for her.
After a while, Li Xiao kept his watch and looked up at the few people who had passed the preliminary round. He said in a low voice, “Students, you will be competing in
teams for the finals. Coincidentally, five students from Class Eight have been selected. In my opinion, why don’t we form a group on the spot? Everyone is considered to be
relatively familiar with each other. That way, you can save the time to improve your relationship with the other students when forming your teams!”
After saying this, seeing that no one reacted, Li Xiao frowned and continued to persuade them, “I have always told all of you that you should be united in everything. Now,
it’s the time for us to be united. I hope that you all can…”
Before he could finish, one of his sentences seemed to have caused Kang Wan’s displeasure. She immediately slammed the table and stood up unhappily. She said loudly,
“Teacher! I don’t support the team formation method you’re talking about. Everyone has spent a lot of effort to pass the preliminary round. Our class’s overall strength is
not strong to begin with. If we team up, won’t it be equivalent to not having a chance of winning?”
Li Xiao frowned, clearly disagreeing with Kang Wan’s words. “Kang Wan, what you’re saying is a little one-sided. For Class Eight to be able to get so many spots in the finals,
it definitely isn’t all by chance. We also have a certain level of ability. How can we praise others and destroy our own prestige before the competition has even started?”
Although she knew that these words might make Li Xiao unhappy, Kang Wan really did not take these teachers from Cloud City seriously. She rubbed the pen in her hand
impatiently and said firmly, “In any case, | definitely won’t team up with Class Eight. This is such a good performance opportunity, I want to participate in the competition
with the top students of Class One!”
Just as Kang Wan finished speaking, a depressing atmosphere instantly filled Class Eight’s classroom. Previously, although the students were not too close to her because of
Mo Zhu, they were still polite to her on the surface.
When she said these words today, everyone looked at her strangely in unison. Not only did their impression of Kang Wan drop extremely low, but they even started to feel a
faint rejection towards her in their hearts!
Just as the atmosphere in the classroom was in a deadlock, Meng Ran looked up at the unhappy Li Xiao and the aggressive Kang Wan. She raised her small hand weakly and
said, “Teacher, I want to be in the same group as Mo Zhu!”
After Meng Ran said this, Zhang Qi, who had been sitting quietly in his seat, also raised his hand firmly and said, “Teacher! I want to be in the same group as Mo Zhu too!”.
