Chapter 69 The Slum Boy's Desperate Comeback (Part Fourteen)
Anderson Military Academy is a strictly disciplined academy, but in reality, these rules only bind ordinary interstellar citizens who join the academy, and have absolutely no binding force on nobles or even royal children.
These aristocratic scions who didn't follow the rules have always been a cancer in Anderson.
When Si Yisi received his enrollment documents, he immediately read the terms and conditions. When he saw the words "Noble Department" clearly displayed on the documents, he understood why Lin Xi'an had reminded him to protect himself.
In the interstellar era, there are insurmountable gaps between different social classes. Just as Lin Xi'an's father was a highly influential marshal, he was still not qualified to attend the Royal Academy.
This is because before Marshal Collins reached this level, his status was merely that of a basic interstellar civilian, completely unrelated to nobility.
Logically speaking, Si'an shouldn't be studying in the aristocratic department... but the admission notice given to Si Yisi was for the aristocratic department, which made Si Yisi realize the reason in an instant.
——
He went in to expose these malignant tumors that everyone in the interstellar community knows about.
Clearly, while Si Yisi's status as a Super A-level mental power holder brings him convenience, it also puts him under pressure from all sides.
Who was behind this?
Si Yisi could guess without even thinking that it was Lin Xi'an's acquaintance, the principal of Anderson Military Academy.
The principal was very kind and not at all stern or strict.
However, his approach was to place Si'an, a boy born and raised in the slums, directly into the aristocratic class, clearly intending to disregard Si's life and death and use him as a tool to fully exploit his value.
The principal's behavior and expression did not reveal any contempt for the "untouchables" from the slums, but judging from these actions, he subconsciously still did not regard the poor as human beings.
Ultimately, it's simply because the "poor" group is too weak to even catch the eye of these nobles.
I've been used...
Faced with this predicament, Si Yisi simply raised an eyebrow and put away the enrollment procedures.
He also had to help Lisa choose furniture, so he was very busy.
Changing the minds of these nobles is not something that can be done overnight; only by making them thoroughly experience the negative consequences of their contempt will it be effective.
“Si'an… I don’t think this will work, it’s too expensive.”
Lisa shrank her neck, revealing a weak and insecure demeanor.
Si Yisi patted her on the shoulder from behind. Just as the mindset of nobles cannot be changed overnight, the inferiority complex ingrained in Lisa's heart cannot be dispelled in a short time.
Fortunately, there's still more than a month until Anderson Military Academy starts, so there's plenty of time.
Si Yisi tried the methods from Si An's memory, gradually making Lisa better.
One month later.
Anderson Military Academy started on time, with banners as numerous as stars hanging over the campus to welcome the new students.
In the past month, Si Yisi managed to transform Si An's body from weak to thin, and a thin layer of muscle covered his body.
But he still looked too thin, with slightly long hair hanging down to his ears and somewhat pale skin.
It makes people think at first glance that they are easy to bully.
Lin Xi'an walked over lazily and waved to Si Yisi: "Here."
Except for a few special occasions when he would act differently, he usually looked listless and tired.
In his father's words, he was a lazybones with no sense of propriety.
Si Yisi nodded to him, and instead of following closely behind Lin Xi'an to find the aristocratic department, she walked side by side with Lin Xi'an.
Lin Xi'an was a celebrity at Anderson College. Students from both the regular and aristocratic departments would look at him and also notice Si Yisi walking beside him.
Many students looked puzzled.
Who... is this?
Most of the students who had this question were from the regular departments, while the students from the aristocratic departments exchanged a meaningful look the moment they saw Si Yisi.
"Is this the slum kid with super A-level mental strength?"
"The sparrow flew up to the branch and turned into a phoenix. Are you going to recruit him?"
Today is the reporting day, and the official start of classes will be tomorrow, but this time all the students from the aristocratic department have come.
The students from the regular departments couldn't help but ask their companions in confusion, "What's going on with these guys from the aristocratic departments? Why did they all come out at once this time? They're so neatly arranged, you could practically harvest them."
“Um… I don’t know either,” his companion scratched his head, then glanced over there and whispered, “Have you noticed… they seem to be intentionally or unintentionally crowding around someone?”
The student looked at the students from the aristocratic department and noticed that the slightly cool sunlight was shining on them, leaving a warm glow on one of their faces.
He was a thin boy who looked shorter and smaller than the students from the aristocratic class. His clothes were also rather plain and shabby. But for some reason, the boy's aura was in no way inferior to the aristocratic children who were "surrounding" him.
Si Yisi was intentionally or unintentionally surrounded by these aristocratic students. They all appeared friendly, but their smiles were entirely formal and polite.
Moreover, they simply surrounded Si Yisi without doing anything else.
Si Yisi heard a sour sound coming from an ordinary student outside the encirclement.
"Who is this? Why does he act like such a big shot?"
“I know that. My relative was there when he was testing him—he comes from a slum.”
"...Untouchables? When will untouchables be allowed to attend school?! Is this some kind of world wonder?"
"Shh... I'll let you in on a secret, this person was found to be a user of super A-level mental strength, that's pretty awesome. So what if he's a commoner? He has his own talent."
The sound of that voice has a hint of jealousy about it.
Si Yisi's eyes darkened. He looked at the aristocratic students who only showed their friendliness but remained silent, and he could see the undercurrents hidden beneath their eyes.
He said, "How could these nobles have done nothing?"
—No, they really didn't do anything.
But simply by showing a friendly attitude towards making friends, it was enough to make students from ordinary departments resentful.
Students who don't want to compete or fight are a minority. When they see someone who is born in the slums and is good for nothing, yet easily gets on the good side of the nobility through his talent, jealousy arises spontaneously.
The students from the aristocratic families really know how to use this tactic.
He could kill with borrowed weapons without lifting a finger, turning jealous students from ordinary departments into sharp blades in his hands, and then intending to let these blades pierce Si Yisi's chest.
Well thought out.
Unfortunately... for Si Yisi, this meant nothing.
Standing next to Si Yisi, Lin Xi'an naturally couldn't be completely oblivious to everything, but he simply gave Si Yisi an encouraging smile—the corners of his mouth casually curled up, showing extreme laziness.
Si Yisi noticed Lin Xi'an's gaze, but her dark eyes seemed to hold nothing in them.
This gave Lin Xi'an the illusion that he... didn't take the tricks of the aristocratic students seriously at all.
This is absolute contempt.
Lin Xi'an was startled, but when she looked at Si Yisi again, she found that his dark eyes had returned to their soft and gentle appearance.
After a brief, silent standoff between the aristocratic students and Si Yisi, a figure approached from a distance. Upon seeing this person, the aristocratic students greeted him, "Greetings, Your Highness, Third Prince."
Tru walked towards them against the sunlight, dressed in magnificent attire and exuding the air of a prince. He made Si Yisi look utterly inferior.
But Sis looked at Tru quietly, as if she had seen a clown trying to attract attention.
Tru and Siss's eyes met.
