Cheng Huaijin is currently in Class 1, Grade 11.
Due to the nature of the curriculum at Yaotian High School, students in a class don't actually see each other often. The class is more like a management unit, which makes it easier for the school to conduct statistical management of students.
Cheng Huaijin wasn't very familiar with her classmates, so there were no conflicts. However, she could occasionally feel the enthusiastic, curious, or unfriendly glances from them... but none of that mattered!
As long as no one openly provokes him, Cheng Huaijin won't bother with a bunch of kids.
It's just a glance; let them look, it won't cost them anything.
However, going to school also has its troubles, namely that freshmen must sign up for campus clubs.
Which one should I apply for... Cheng Huaijin pondered as she walked.
"Why the long face?" A familiar male voice rang out, and Cheng Huaijin looked up to see Lu Yunqi.
No, we should call it Said now.
Seidros, a member of the famous Ross family of mechanical conglomerates, was reportedly lost when he was young and was only found last year. He is now a second-year student in Class 1 of Huacheng Yaotian High School.
"Clubs, I don't know which one to join. What did you join?" Cheng Huaijin asked.
Said's gaze fell on the fluffy ball on Cheng Huaijin's head. He reached out and touched the little ball's little tuft of hair, finding it so cute that his heart melted.
The blond boy's eyes crinkled into a smile, clearly in a very good mood: "I'm at the Ancient Pet Research Association, do you want to come?"
"Ancient Pet Research Association?" Cheng Huaijin was somewhat interested. "But I didn't see this name in the club's announcement?"
Said walked side by side with Cheng Huaijin toward the cafeteria: "Our club has fewer members, so our ranking is lower."
Cheng Huaijin noticed the students around him pretending to be passing by and glancing at Said, and couldn't help but ask curiously, "Is your club still short of members?"
Seid raised an eyebrow, his deep blue eyes as beautiful as sapphires: "It's precisely because I'm here, and the standards are high, that there are fewer people."
"Can I go in?"
"Wood Dragon Beast Tamer, your presence is an honor to us. We will naturally welcome you with open arms."
...
After finishing her classes for the day, Cheng Huaijin went to the club activity room that Said had mentioned after having lunch.
Although it's called a club activity room, it's actually a quaint wooden building.
...They're really rich.
Looking around, Cheng Huaijin thought about the activity rooms of the associations he had visited before and realized that Said had indeed become a rich man!
A wooden sign engraved with "Ancient Pet Research Association" stood at the entrance of the courtyard. Cheng Huaijin couldn't find the doorbell, so he called out a few times at the door.
No one answered.
We agreed to meet at four o'clock, why isn't Ced here yet?
Cheng Huaijin pushed open the door and walked to the main entrance of the wooden building, knocking three times with his fingers.
Still no one answered.
Cheng Huaijin pushed the door open, and it creaked open a crack.
"Is anyone there? I'm Cheng Huaijin, invited by Sederross..."
"Don't move!" A sharp shout rang out, and Cheng Huaijin immediately raised his hands and remained still.
A few beams of light flashed through the crack in the door, followed by a rush of hot air.
The door opened from the inside, revealing a familiar face.
"Zeng Zhaoying??"
"Little Huaijin, it's been a long time!"
The girl pushed up her glasses, her eyes filled with a warm smile.
Zeng Zhaoying opened the door: "I'm sorry, I was doing an experiment just now and almost hurt you. Come in quickly, Said said he had something to do and asked me to show you around first."
Cheng Huaijin waved his hand: "It's nothing, it's nothing. You're also at Huacheng Yaotian High School? I only heard that you won first place in the competition and went straight to university?"
Zeng Zhaoying pressed a button on the remote control, and several robots immediately appeared to clean the hall.
"It's a bit messy, but it'll be tidied up soon. Wait a moment," she said. "You heard right, I'm currently a student at Earth Radiant University, and also serve as the club advisor for the Ancient Pet Research Association."
She winked mischievously: "You can call me teacher too~"
Cheng Huaijin crossed his arms and looked down at her condescendingly: "Teacher, it's been so long since I've seen you, you still haven't grown much taller."
Zeng Zhaoying chuckled and poked Cheng Huaijin's lower back with her hand: "You're so tall, you're so tall!"
The two laughed and joked for a while, then there was another sound coming from the doorway.
“Your team members have arrived,” Zeng Zhaoying said.
Cheng Huaijin looked at her and said, "I don't think I've decided to join this club yet."
“You’re a Wood Dragon Beast Tamer, if you don’t join the Ancient Pet Beast Research Association, who will?” Zeng Zhaoying’s glasses reflected the light, making him look both rational and wild.
...Zeng Zhaoying has changed a lot.
Cheng Huaijin shrugged: "Alright, for your sake and Said's sake."
The door was pushed open, and a male student walked in.
He was tall and slender, with brown hair and deep blue eyes. His school uniform was impeccably tailored, the white shirt collar neatly tied, the dark tie impeccably fastened, the leather shoes gleaming, and his nails perfectly manicured—he was clearly a man of refined taste.
The man, who was very particular about his appearance, frowned as soon as he entered the room. He didn't look at Cheng Huaijin and Zeng Zhaoying in the hall, but instead muttered, "Why is it so dirty?"
"Jieling, come out and help me clean up."
A snow-white bird-like pet appeared out of nowhere and began to flap its wings.
Cheng Huaijin felt a gentle breeze on his face, and the air instantly felt much fresher.
The man, satisfied, took a deep breath and then turned his attention to Cheng Huaijin and Zeng Zhaoying.
"Teacher Zeng, who is this?"
Just as Zeng Zhaoying was about to begin her introduction, the door was pushed open again.
A muddy foot stepped in, carrying a muddy, fishy smell that assaulted the senses of everyone present.
Cheng Huaijin noticed that the person who was particular about appearances had dilated pupils and a distorted face.
