On behalf of all mankind

【Xi Zhou, Yan Ning, Lu Lanting, Heshun, Xu Sui'an】

Congratulations to the above comrades, who will represent all of humanity as exchange students and travel to the "First Continent" - Xinghe to study spiritual arts!

The autumn weather is clear and sunny, and a ray of colorful light slowly flows in the blue sky.

Exchange student Xi Zhou thought this was a sign of the arrival of an immortal.

This day is indeed special.

It was the 16th day of the eighth lunar month, the Mid-Autumn Festival had just passed. Most universities had already started classes, and the exchange students scheduled to go to the Galaxy Continent were about to depart.

They were waiting for their new teacher to pick them up in the deserted grove near the high school, chatting animatedly about Ultraman saving the world, the transformations of the Little Magic Fairies, and the three-year golden elixir and five-year ascension to heaven. Even the phrase "The Immortal touches my head, and I shall receive eternal life through marriage" (1) was just a passing remark.

As a result, I don’t know what sensitive topic was discussed, and the atmosphere became depressed, especially Xi Zhou.

Xi Zhou's appearance and personality were both typical of an excellent student. Her long, shiny black hair shone golden in the sunlight, her voice was pleasant, and her thoughtfulness made her popular with everyone.

She looked up at the sky, a feeling of reluctance creeping into her heart. "I probably won't have a chance to come back in the next five years, right? I wonder what the Galaxy Continent is like."

"You'll find out when you get there. Why worry about it now?"

"I'd be happy if I could learn magic or sleep in a thatched hut!" Heshun is the most lively and outgoing boy among the exchange students, and he is also the one who is most looking forward to learning magic.

He stood up from the stone bench and shouted, "Go, go, go!"

"Shh—why are you making so much noise? Be careful not to attract others. The exchange student program is currently top secret, top secret! It's on the same level as the college entrance examination, you know?"

Yes, top secret.

The Galaxy Continent launched a five-year exchange student invitation three years ago, and it was not until this year that all countries reached a consensus and agreed to it.

The quota was determined by a machine from people sent by the Galaxy Continent, who selected the top five most talented 18-year-old citizens from around the world. Coincidentally, these five were all from China, and were even in the same class, so they knew each other.

Several people waited from morning until the sun was about to set. Their patience was almost worn out. They suspected that their superiors were playing a trick on them. Finally, their teacher arrived to pick them up. This teacher was a dragon, a beautiful five-clawed golden dragon, and even every dragon scale shone with golden light!

The students' eyes widened as they watched, and they pinched each other's arms to prove that they were not dreaming. Suddenly they felt like gods, and the corners of their mouths were almost stretched behind their ears.

Please, which Chinese person would not be confused when seeing a dragon?

"Are dragons actually real?" Xi Zhou murmured.

"Our teacher is actually a dragon?!"

"Then we are not really the clay figures made by Nuwa, are we?" He Shun was imaginative and rubbed his hands in anticipation. No wonder he had to rub the clay when taking a bath.

Wait, something seems off about what I was expecting.

Heshun chose to skip Nuwa immediately. "No wonder the five most powerful ones are all Chinese. Western mythology is not the same as ours. What Zeus, Shiva..."

"Then if we finish our studies, will we also be qualified to be written into the myth? After all, we are students of the dragon."

"Then we can be considered the real 'Descendants of the Dragon'. Even if others don't write about it, we can still have an awesome autobiography, hehe."

"Stop chatting, stop chatting. The teacher is watching us. It would be rude to make him wait any longer."

"They said that when we go out, we represent the face of the entire earth!"

"May the stars shine upon you!" Finally, the five exchange students bowed to the teacher in unison and recited the greetings for their first meeting.

"May the stars shine upon you." The dragon circled in the sky and landed early, but waited quietly until they finished their chattering before greeting them in a graceful voice.

This Mr. Long looks elegant and noble. Even after transforming into a human form, he still has a calm and unhurried temperament. He is also very handsome. Because of his long black hair, he looks like a handsome man in ancient style.

The only drawback is that he doesn't speak Chinese, but Galaxy language.

Of course, even on their tiny planet, there are so many countries and so many languages. It's normal to have language barriers with them in another world, right?

wrong!

The five people burst into tears.

Once the candidates were confirmed, the language barrier also needed to be addressed urgently. Xinghe Continent had a textbook with audio files, which I had brought with me and spent some time studying urgently. However, I had never used a real weapon, so the techniques were still unfamiliar.

What’s even more sad is that after all this trouble, the three-month college entrance examination holiday was ruined.

"I'm your next Elegant Language teacher, my name is Zhenlin. This time I'll lead you to the galaxy. Are you ready?"

As the teacher spoke, Xi Zhou, the quickest responder, had already remembered to use the mobile device she'd received along with the textbook for real-time translation. The other four heads also belatedly realized what was happening and were staring intently at the translator beside her.

It might be hard to believe, but before being selected, these five people considered themselves unremarkable. Their college entrance exam scores were only around 600, good enough for a regular university. Therefore, they had been self-studying the language of the Galaxy until now, but they still had no idea how to pronounce the grammar, didn't recognize many words, and couldn't understand specialized terms like names at all.

Don’t ask why they don’t wear simultaneous interpreters. It’s because smart items will be blocked during exams, so the school doesn’t want them to become dependent on them.

The students angrily hoped that the exchange students (who might not even be human, apparently) would study hard. I heard they were also very interested in the linguistics here...

Before the students who had studied hard could even complain, Teacher Long successfully brought them to their destination. He also took a liking to Xu Sui'an, who spoke the Galaxy language most fluently, and made him the representative of the Galaxy language class.

According to the translator, only ten exchange students were accepted this time, and the other five came from a magical world similar to the East, called Tianhe Continent.

"By the way, did we decide to call our world the Galaxy Continent?" Xi Zhou recalled the names of both parties on the exchange student program contract.

"Named after the Milky Way? That sounds pretty nice."

"Look, look, those five people who are still wearing magic robes should be the remaining exchange students, right?"

Soon after they landed, six people came towards them, and the leader was obviously also a teacher.

The students felt that their materialistic view had collapsed and they stared at the five future friends intently.

Let these little Liu Laolaos see:

A handsome demon named Jing Hong

A god-demon hybrid named Yin Zian

A spooky ghost floating in the air, named Fu Linyuan

A beautiful mermaid named Yu Huiyan

There is only one human being, holding hands with the mermaid, his name is Hua Shaoqing.

It is said that they represent the five major races where Tianhe is located.

Xi Zhou thought: Sure enough, everything written in the novel is true, monsters and ghosts do exist, and...

She couldn't help but pay close attention to the boys from the demon clan and the girls who were half-god and half-demon.

The boy's features were warm and gentle, and he looked older than his youth. The girl's eyes were sparkling, and she was quirky and playful, just like the girl next door.

Finally, I cautiously came to the conclusion: the devil doesn't look scary, and doesn't seem like a born bad guy, so it should not be difficult to get along with him. The stereotypes brought about by fantasy novels should not exist.

The five exchange students were brought here by a friendly female teacher. Since she looked quite decent and didn't introduce herself, it was not certain what species she was.

Could it be a human body with a snake tail like Nuwa? With the five-clawed golden dragon in front of them, the children of China could not help but start to get more and more demanding.

The opportunity to get to know the teachers came quickly. The two teachers gathered ten people into a group and then divided them into two teams, male and female, and headed to the dormitory.

It turned out that the female teacher who taught Yayan was a human named Yaru. She had also chosen the only human girl as the class representative on the way.

Well, no regrets, absolutely not.

Wait, Xi Zhou smelled something wrong.

Yayan sounds like a language subject, doesn't it? Aren't they here to learn spiritual arts? Why are there so many foreign language courses?

Okay, let's put these irrelevant things aside for now.

After a detailed introduction, they learned that the school they were about to attend was called Wanhe College. It was located in a small space torn out from the various spatial nodes of this continent. It was also the only fully comprehensive college in the entire continent.

Xi Zhou and the others almost thought they were going to college, but were told it was a compulsory education school, which meant they were going back to school and starting over from the first grade.

And comprehensive refers to students from all kinds of strange races. After all, the exchange students from the magical world alone are strange enough.

The girls walked into the dormitory and found that the conditions of this college were quite good. In order to promote communication among them, they were arranged in a spacious six-person room.

A sextuple room refers to six bedrooms with a bathroom, plus a living room and a kitchen.

Xi Zhou looked up and down, left and right for a long time, but couldn't understand how this space, which looked small, could be so spacious inside.

But that didn't stop her from silently comparing it to the six-person room her brother lived in during college. That room had a bed above and a desk below, and the conditions were incredibly harsh.

Xi Zhou's good friend felt the same way. She had a relative who was studying in an eight-person dormitory with bunk beds in college, and she had always worried that she would suffer the same treatment.

Heshun's eyes were also filled with tears, and he thought happily that it turned out that the rumors on the Internet about the good treatment of international students were true. He was finally allowed to become an international student!

After learning about some dormitory conditions that violated the POW treaty, Teacher Yaru said that children of different races have different habits, and it is very unscientific to sleep in the same bedroom.

The little mermaid, who had the most peculiar habits, took this to heart and had already found a bedroom that was half filled with sea water and sealed tightly by a barrier - this was obviously specially prepared for her.

The mermaid girl Yu Huiyan immediately used magic, turned back into a fish tail, swam around the bedroom, and blew bubbles to express her satisfaction. She said it should be given a five-star rating - not the installment payment type, but a one-time payment.
