Chapter 11 The Serious Girl, The Legacy of the Night Priest



"The first essential quality of a good support therapist is to have a kind heart and strictly adhere to the rules..."

The girl closed her eyes and recited the text, completely unaware that Ye Ran had already stood beside her.

When she heard that the entire classroom was so quiet that there wasn't a single whispering sound,

She just slightly opened her eyes.

She looked up and saw Ye Ran smiling at her. Startled, she immediately stood up.

Even so, he still bowed respectfully to Ye Ran:

"Teacher Ye... I didn't know you were here."

Ye Ran flipped through the girl's book, clicking his tongue in admiration:

"The Basic Principles of Treating Superpowered Individuals, Jiang Xiaoru, I didn't expect you to have already learned something that you only need to learn in your second year of university. Not bad at all."

As soon as Ye Ran finished speaking, Jiang Xiaoru's face turned bright red.

Suddenly flustered and unsure of what to say, her mind a jumbled mess, she blurted out:

"I'm so sorry, Teacher Ye, I won't recite anymore!!"

These words caused the entire classroom to burst into laughter.

The ridicule from her classmates made Jiang Xiaoru feel even more lost and helpless.

He nervously shrank back to the corner of the classroom, his hands clenching the hem of his clothes and twisting them back and forth.

Ye Ran remained silent upon witnessing this scene.

In a class, how can someone who studies hard be ridiculed and forced to apologize to the teacher and never recite again?

What a ridiculous scene this is.

"What's so funny?"

Ye Ran's tone was calm, yet extremely powerful.

A simple sentence brought the uproarious laughter to an abrupt halt.

"I'm asking you what's so funny?"

Faced with Ye Ran's further questioning, most of the students remained silent.

“Teacher Lin, she studies so hard, but she can’t even cast a basic healing spell. We just think that studying is useless.”

Suddenly, such a statement came from among the students.

Such a statement,

This made Jiang Xiaoru even more flustered, and her face turned quite red.

Jiang Xiaoru,

A problem student who awakened a healing talent but couldn't even cast a basic healing spell.

He usually studies more diligently than anyone else, does his homework more hard, and follows the rules more strictly than anyone else.

The most obedient and well-behaved student in all the teachers' eyes

Even his theoretical scores were the highest in the entire grade.

Ironically, his actual performance in the competition was the worst in the entire school.

According to the school system

This year is also Jiang Xiaoru's last year, if she fails the lowest level of practical test again.

Jiang Xiaoru will be notified of her withdrawal from school.

The awkward situation and the words of my classmates.

It was like a cold arrow piercing straight into Jiang Xiaoru's heart.

A wave of bitterness and grievance washed over her, and her eyes began to well up with tears.

Ye Ran looked at the students, remaining silent.

This is Class 2, Grade 1.

The idea that studying is useless is prevalent here, as is the idea that eating, drinking, and having fun.

Here, those who diligently cultivate themselves become a laughingstock and are considered outcasts.

They are all stuck in the quagmire, not thinking about how to get out, but instead trying to pull everyone outside the quagmire in.

To turn your life around and achieve a true class reversal,

What Ye Ran needs to do most is to nip this terrible class atmosphere in the bud.

Since Jiang Xiaoru's case has become irrefutable evidence for their argument that learning is useless,

What he needs to do is overturn this irrefutable evidence!

Ye Ran silently walked towards Jiang Xiaoru.

Like a wall, it helped Jiang Xiaoru block the gazes directed at her.

"Classmates, I don't want to find out who said this. I know that you all have the same thoughts to some extent."

“You are all mocking hardworking people, mocking them for doing useless work every day, and using this to prove your point that learning is useless.”

"But is that your excuse for not trying?"

"Everyone here got into the Shanghai Martial Arts Academy through their own abilities, and each of you has extraordinary talent. But now, you are not ambitious, you are mediocre, and you are willing to be trampled on like mud."

Ye Ran looked around, his sharp gaze causing all the students who met his eyes to lower their heads.

"You promote the idea that hard work is useless and ridicule everyone who tries. But think about it carefully, aren't you also ridiculing yourselves?"

"When faced with even the slightest setback, they choose to escape. They fear that they are not a fine jade, so they dare not work hard to polish themselves. Yet they half believe that they are a fine jade, so they indulge in self-satisfaction and fantasies. They only dare to escape and seek a little comfort in that fantasy world, but dare not look up at the bright moon over the great river."

Ye Ran's words hit the nail on the head.

The students present were speechless, and some even blushed with shame and indignation.

Ye Ran led Jiang Xiaoru to stand in the center of the podium.

"Jiang Xiaoru's efforts will never be in vain. One day she will emerge from her cocoon and stand in the center of the stage."

"I know you might scoff at this, but you all better watch out. I'll show you through Jiang Xiaoru what the point of studying is! What the point of hard work is!"

Then, Ye Ran turned to face Jiang Xiaoru:

"Jiang Xiaoru, come with me."

Jiang Xiaoru stared blankly at all of this.

At this moment, bathed in sunlight, Ye Ran seemed like an angel descended to earth.

"Okay... okay, teacher."

After saying that, Jiang Xiaoru hugged her textbooks and followed Ye Ran out of the classroom.
