Four Realms Academy⑥

# Four Realms Academy⑥

A week before the National Day holiday, Yun Xian and Qiao Lingshan were so busy that they were almost pale.

It seems that they underestimated the importance of this task, thinking that as long as they could deliver the cake safely to the recipient, they would be considered a winner. However, it turned out that they had to coordinate and register. It was not a difficult task, but it was extremely tedious and troublesome. Jimo Shu used a small notebook to help write down the list before evening self-study, and she was really exhausted.

This week, Yun Xian and Qiao Lingshan applied to attend school as day students, leaving only Ji Rongxue and Jimo Shu in the dormitory. Both of them are not talkative, so the dormitory is much quieter, but they still get along well.

One night, Jimo Shu found three sticky notes of varying heights on the wall. She wondered, "What are these?"

Ji Rongxue came over quietly, licking her toothbrush, and said, "Height."

"Don't you know your height during your physical exam?" Jimo Shu asked, "Which one is the most accurate?" "Why do you measure it this way?"

"That's not about measuring numbers. Lingshan is a bit shorter than Yunxian, and she always thinks she can still grow at seventeen, so she always pulls Yunxian to compare." Ji Rongxue said suddenly, "I'm 1.83 meters tall."

No wonder there are always boxes of pure milk under Qiao Lingshan's table. However, Jimo Shu said silently: "I don't think I asked your height."

"Well. You didn't ask." Ji Rongxue said calmly, "But I think you should know."

Jimo Shu: “…………”

Who wants to know how tall you are?! You might as well put "183" on your forehead!

However, once people have some information, they can't help but start using it. Ji Rongxue must have reported her height without shoes, heels, or thick hair. So based on this comparison, Jimo Shu can probably infer the heights of the others.

Yun Xian is 172, Qiao Lingshan is 168, and Shu Jiuwei is 165. Qi Xingye should be closer to 1.9 meters, Xue Lingxiu is around 1.80 meters, and Feng Ye... Feng Ye is probably a little over 1.7 meters. Strange, he doesn't look that tall? Is it because he usually stays huddled in the corner?

Life in high school wasn't particularly vibrant; most of the time was a monotonous, boring cycle. Endless science papers, endless lectures, repeated mistakes, dim screens, and rows of backs snoring during breaks, like small, uncharted rockeries.

High schools with slightly higher rankings will complete the knowledge of senior year in advance, especially No. 1 High School, which almost completes the knowledge of senior year in the second half of the second year of high school, and then spend a whole year reviewing for the college entrance examination.

Jimo Shu's progress was similar to theirs. However, her guardians hadn't initially planned for her to take the national college entrance exam, so the test types she was used to were very different. These days, Jimo Shu secretly studied hard and finally achieved excellent results in the weekly tests, despite being quite partial to her subjects.

She topped the English test with a score of 147, but her worst subject was chemistry. She really hated balancing equations because she simply couldn't do it!

But at least we have finally gotten on the right track.

Of course, in this monotonous and dull daily life, there are occasionally a few heroic moments that make people smile, such as a stupid kid from the next class who stuck his head under the table and couldn't get it out, thus alerting the fire department, and Zhong Changyao being brutally attacked by a crowd of onlookers in the Xiaoliu Cake Shop. But perhaps in order to provide students with some freshness, the school made a huge change -

That is to change the music for the physical exercise during recess to the rabbit dance.

When the sound of "Left, Left, Right, Right, Go..." played on the speakers, Jimo Shu looked at the other classmates with a speechless expression of "here it comes again", and put their hands on the person in front of them.

Jimo Shu: “?”

What is this doing?

The girl in front of her was called Liu Xu. She had never spoken to her much. How could Jimo Shu have the nerve to put her hand on her shoulder? She could only hurried away and stand at the edge of the playground.

Li Jianye saw her coming over and smiled as expected, "You haven't learned it before, so just watch today."

Jimo Shu looked at the group of people jumping around, especially Yun Xian, and asked with a tingling sensation on her scalp, "Why don't you do radio gymnastics?"

She followed it every day and just learned a little bit.

"It's easy to lose the novelty of doing exercises every day," Li Jianye sighed. "Look how happy they are smiling."

Jimo Shu looked around and felt that Qi Zhiye and Xue Lingxiu's faces were about to be overcast with dark clouds.

High school is the time when students care most about their image. Doing radio gymnastics is already silly, and they are asked to jump and dance with their left and right feet. How is it possible for them to do that?

But if anyone didn't do the exercises, their class's civility points would be deducted. So the two could only reluctantly move their hands and legs at the end of the line, their faces quite indescribable.

It seems that being too cultured and having too much sense of collective honor is not a good thing. Liu Shi and Zhong Changyao from the next class simply refused to do it.

Jimo Shu said, "They didn't laugh, did they?"

Li Jianye: "I'm talking about the school leaders."

Jimo Shu looked towards the stage and saw several school leaders grinning, looking genuinely happy: "..."

What on earth do you base your happiness on? !

The weather is great today, neither too hot nor too cold. The sun is wisely hiding behind the clouds. The sky is blue and the wind makes the treetops sway slightly. The whole playground is echoing with the music played by large speakers. The sound quality is very poor and it is irritating to the ears.

Jimo Shu just stood next to the head teacher and suddenly felt like she had nothing to say, but she felt a little awkward to be quiet.

"I received a call from your parents." Li Jianye said, "Are you planning to stay at school during the National Day holiday?"

"...Yeah." Jimo Shu straightened her back a little, not looking at her, and said, "It won't have any impact on staying in school, right? Are the cafeteria and classrooms closed?"

"Of course not." Li Jianye could tell she wanted to end the topic quickly, so he smiled good-naturedly and said, "The cafeteria probably only has some windows open on the first and second floors. If you want to go to the classroom, you can ask me for the key."

"Yeah. I know." Jimo Shu muttered, "There will be fewer people."

Recess exercises were over. The seniors went upstairs first, while many went against the flow, intending to go to the convenience store to buy drinks. Jimo Shu, standing at the edge of the playground, saw Yun Xian and a few others peeking over their shoulders, seemingly waiting for her to join them.

"High school life is only three years, and every year is precious." Li Jianye looked at the youthful teenagers and said slowly, as if talking to himself, "Some children may feel that it's just a year, and the days pass by quickly as they watch the countdown. The college entrance examination, volunteering, going to university, and then going their separate ways are just steps that must be taken."

Jimo Shu thought, isn’t it?

After graduation, we go our separate ways. With so many universities and so many provinces, some people will never meet again.

"It's people, not time, that are precious." Li Jianye gently pushed her back, motioning her to go. "This is the moment when you are most connected to others, even if it's not your intention."

But some doors that seem to be tightly closed need a gentle push to open.

-

The last class in the afternoon before the holiday is physical education.

No. 1 Middle School doesn't actually use up physical education classes, as this is a rare leisure time for students. Especially around the sports day, many people are busy practicing this and that on the playground, and at a glance, it's a sea of ​​heads.

Jimo Shu has become quite proficient in hurdling - of course, her thick skin has also improved. She can remain calm when being praised, and even wonders in her heart, do I really have a talent for sports?

Many students in the class took down their bulging backpacks and placed them at the edge of the playground, so that they could carry them home directly later, so as to avoid having to run back to the teaching building after school.

Jimo Shu, for some unknown reason, also took her schoolbag down. Even though she had no intention of going home, she was hiding this completely unnecessary news.

Yun Xian still didn't know she was staying at school during the holidays, and was still excitedly saying, "Do you want to play the game of "Draw and Guess"? I'm telling you, I've always been first in this game..."

"Where are we going to play?" Jimo Shu asked anxiously, "Going out?"

If she doesn't need to go out, she can also climb over the wall to go to the Internet cafe.

“No, no,” Yun Xianle said cheerfully, “Just download some software. We can also play Werewolf!”

"Don't play with her." Xue Lingxiu passed by and kindly reminded her, "Unless you want your eardrums to explode."

Why are you saying bad things about her for no reason? Yun Xian got angry: "That's not that exaggerated. Can't you just turn down the volume a bit?"

"To be more precise, don't let her play with Feng Ye." Xue Lingxiu slowly wiped her hands with a wet towel, her tone full of resentment. "If you don't turn up the volume, you can't hear Feng Ye talking at all. She's next. Before you can adjust the volume, her loud voice will explode next to your ear... My mom asked me why I quarreled with others during the holidays."

Yun Xian deliberately put his dirty hands on him, and Xue Lingxiu was horrified: "Don't come over here! Go away!!!"

Feng Ye said weakly: "My voice is not small, it's just that my microphone is not good."

Jimo Shu was shocked again: "?! When did you stand here?!"

Ji Rongxue was instructing Qiao Lingshan on how to throw the shot ball farther. Many people were gathered around Shu Jiuwei, all looking at the big bow on her head. Little Shu was so beautiful that she was about to burst into bubbles. If she had a tail, it would have been shaking long ago.

Qi Zhiye was holding the list and counting it with Li Batu.

The female classmate who was originally responsible for the relay team sprained her ankle, leaving a vacancy, so Qi Zhiye came to find her again.

"You have great stamina and never fall asleep in class," he said calmly, "Do you want to try the relay? I think we can take first place."

I said the same thing last time I asked her to sign up for the hurdles. Her persuasive speech skills are simply failing.

Jimo Shu: "Except for you, no one else would fall asleep in class, right?"

But she signed up anyway. Hurdles were still a race, the 200-meter relay was still a race; it didn't matter. She didn't care about her class grades; she just signed up for the chance, to avoid those people pestering her every day.

Fifteen minutes before the end of get out of class, the physical education teacher blew the whistle, and classes three and four automatically formed into square formations and stood in line.

Almost all the sports students stood at the back, and Jimo Shu finally saw the face of the legendary Liu Shi.

It's strange to say, this man has a handsome face, sharp eyebrows and bright eyes, and he can be called handsome no matter how you look at him, but when Jimo Shu looks at his face, she always feels that he is not very smart... This may be due to preconceived notions. For example, she now feels that Zhong Changyao is not pleasing to the eye no matter how she looks at him.

Yun Xian stood beside her and whispered to her, "In the past, the first place in the sports meet was always competed by Classes 3 and 4, and the results were the same."

Apart from the different head teachers, the subject teachers of the two classes are exactly the same. No wonder there is such open and secret fighting.

Li Batu took the key to the gym and said to Qi Zhiye and Liu Shidao, "Go get the dragon boat."

The two phalanxes were in a state of excitement for a short time.

"Dragon boat?" Jimo Shu asked, "What is that..."

There doesn't seem to be a lake here. Are we going to the swimming pool?

Before Yun Xian could reply, Li Batu shouted, "Quiet, be quiet! What are you arguing about? You're just a grown-up kid!"

"As everyone knows, there are quite a few fun group events this year, and the one with the highest weight and the most bonus points is the dragon boat race. Have you almost decided on your candidates?" Li Batu said, "We still have some time, so let's try them out first and then adjust the selections to avoid any accidents later."

In the gym over there, two tall guys came over dragging something long.

Jimo Shu took a closer look and found that it seemed to be an inflatable toy, crudely made to look like a dragon boat, but this dragon boat not only had eyes, but also had eight pairs of legs.

It's going to be about eight people riding on it, trying to move forward as fast as possible by cooperating with each other, and then ranking by time.

Jimo Shu was speechless and choked: "...why not just turn it into a bug?"

Which place has dragon boats with long legs?

"What a cultural feature," Yun Xian consoled her. "Look, math problems these days have to incorporate some Tianyuan and local gossip. Changing insects to dragon boats makes sense."

Jimo Shu: "Do you think it looks good?"

Yun Xian: "It's so ugly."

Originally, these fun events, like the three-legged race and the kangaroo hop, weren't only inelegant but also easy to make a fool of yourself. Of course, during competitions, there was no time to worry about grace, but in these non-essential situations, it was natural to avoid participating.

But now, the situation is different.

Liu Shi has already started rolling up his sleeves.

"Do you want to practice on your own, or together?" Li Batu said with a smile, "It seems that practicing together will be more efficient."

Classes 3 and 4 were once again excited: "Of course we should practice together! Practice together!!"

“…”

I don't know where the desire to win came from, but everyone lined up several times faster than the speed of gathering. Two dragon boats were placed in front of the starting line, and some people had already started warming up.

People from other classes gathered around to watch, their expressions showing delight.

Jimo Shu didn't go up. She asked Yun Xian, who was squatting nearby watching the game, "Why aren't you going?"

"I'm not very cooperative." Yun Xian said sincerely, "I always get confused while paddling, and one person will bring down the whole group."

Jimo Shu: "..."

What a lot of evil!

Ji Rongxue didn't go either. Shu Jiuwei and Qiao Lingshan sat in the front row, their eyes bright and ready to go.

"This requires tacit understanding." Yun Xianren didn't take the stage, but he did. "We'll have to listen to the slogans later. One step with your left foot, two steps with your right foot, and keep your eyes on the back of the head of the person in front of you. Xue, don't sit so stiffly. Relax your body! Spread out! Stretch out! Yes, you can spread your legs a little further and dig your toes into the ground. This will make it easier to launch yourself..."

Xue Lingxiu was annoyed: "I know! Can you be a little quieter?"

Yun Xian felt aggrieved: "But I was just shouting slogans!"

Jimo Shu sensed something was wrong: "You're just shouting slogans, how can you lead a group of people down by yourself?"

"..." Yun Xian scratched his head, "I can't do two things at once. If I take care of my mouth, I won't be able to take care of my feet."

Jimo Shu really couldn't stand her anymore. This person was a complete idiot.

In the end, Yun Xian was ruthlessly removed from his command position for being too noisy, and the leader Shu Jiuwei became the one shouting slogans.

"Alright, alright, get ready to start!" Li Batu stood at the side, watching the excitement without a care in the world, and said, "It's a friendly match, a friendly match! Don't take it so seriously! Liu Shi, what are you doing? Don't jump the gun!"

"The original intention of establishing this project is not to let you compete for the top spot, but to let you understand how important tacit understanding is in teamwork. All your teammates are indispensable."

The game will begin as soon as the whistle blows.

There was a brief but complete silence in this spacious playground.

The wind blew through the treetops. Jimo Shu stood beside the team, watching everyone heading in the same direction, and suddenly remembered what the head teacher said.

If it were an ordinary student, they would have heard these words so many times that their ears would be calloused. They should cherish the present time, as high school life is so precious... But everything here is so unfamiliar to Jimo Shu.

She didn't even have the qualifications to hear calluses. Who would have spoken to her like that before? The tutor left immediately after teaching, and she had no classmates. She didn't know how to get along with her peers.

Is one of them indispensable?

Could she possibly be that one?

The game began with a shrill whistle and thunderous cheers. Jimo Shu stared blankly at what was in front of her, and couldn't help feeling a sudden melancholy and loss... Wait, what just flew past?

It seems like a person.

So weird, take another look.

It’s really a human being!!

She no longer had any worries, and her gaze quickly followed forward -

At the end of Class 4 is Qi Zhiye, and in front of him is Feng Ye. Coincidentally, in front of Feng Ye is He, whose nickname is Tiedan.

Two 1.9-meter-high mountains sandwiched Feng Ye's poor little basin in the middle.

But that’s okay, height is not an obstacle to this game, and Feng Ye’s feet can indeed touch the ground at the beginning.

But as the distance between the two sides grew increasingly stalemate, no one remembered the friendly match anymore. The desire to win took over, and they were so eager to kick their legs like a roller coaster. So, the end of the dragon boat was unconsciously lifted higher and higher by the two men. Feng Ye was caught off guard and was directly suspended in the air. In a panic, he lay on the dragon boat, his eyes filled with confusion and fear: "?!!"

Of the short 100-meter distance, he played 20 meters, leaving the remaining 80 meters largely as a humanoid pendant. However, he still struggled to survive in the cracks, firmly shouting with his trembling voice, "Don't worry about me! Keep going! I won't fall!"

Even though no one intended to care about him.

"Hiss." Yun Xian stroked his chin and thought, "Why do I feel like I'm missing an update?"

Ji Rongxue: "I agree."

Feng Ye was anxious: "How can you say that?! I work like a slave for you, Class 4..."

Jimo Shu: “…………”

Why was she being so pretentious just now?
