Huo Pingsheng quickly completed the formalities for Jiang Ziqi. The two were close by, and he patted Jiang Ziqi's head and quietly asked her, "Girl, do you want to join my guild? You won't be shortchanged."
"Dean..."
Huo Pingsheng glared, "You've already dropped out of school, and you're still calling him dean."
Jiang Ziqi chuckled, "Uncle Huo."
Huo Pingsheng held his chin up arrogantly.
Jiang Ziqi whispered back to him, "No way, I'm not cut out for forging."
She glanced at Hua Ansu silently; this was the one.
"That's the same answer again," Huo Pingsheng said impatiently, "Go away, go away, so I don't get angry."
With those words from him, the three of them left without hesitation.
Huo Pingsheng, “…” They didn’t even want to stay and keep him company?
Jiang Ziqi was surprised to find that Teacher Zhou was still outside the door. Hadn't he left long ago?
She greeted him, "Teacher Zhou, if you're looking for the dean, he's quite free right now."
Dean Huo, who seemed quite idle: "Idle? What do you mean idle? Can't you see all these documents on my desk waiting for me to process and review?!"
Teacher Zhou shook her head, "I'm looking for you."
"Jiang Ziqi, can I talk to you?"
Jiang Ziqi was slightly taken aback, then nodded.
corner.
Teacher Zhou asked, "Why?"
Jiang Ziqi stood upright. "Teacher Zhou, what do you want to ask?"
"Your forging ability." Teacher Zhou looked at her, his tone more calm than ever before. "Your ability to forge a second-grade weapon could not possibly be due to luck. You and I both understand the principle that one must be strong to forge iron. So I want to ask you, why have you been unable to forge a weapon for several years?"
After being traumatized in the dean's office, Teacher Zhou seemed to have a breakthrough and understood many things.
Firstly, Jiang Ziqi is someone you shouldn't mess with, and secondly, Jiang Ziqi has been hiding her true abilities all these years.
“Teacher, I told you when I failed to forge the first weapon that I wanted to forge something different.”
Teacher Zhou was confused; he could hardly remember her saying those words. "Different weapons...you mean shields?"
Jiang Ziqi shook her head, "The materials used in the test can only be used to make conventional weapons."
“If the teacher wants an answer, I can tell the teacher that I once swore to myself that if I entered the forging academy, I would not do anything else until I had developed a common weapon. Now that the common weapon has been developed, that’s why I didn’t ‘get stuck on the details’ during this forging test.”
That's all I can say.
She nodded one last time, "Goodbye, Teacher Zhou."
Teacher Zhou was left looking bewildered. Common weapons? Wasn't she supposed to forge unique weapons?
Not long after, when Teacher Zhou recalled her conversation with Jiang Ziqi, she couldn't help but smile wryly. So this was the kind of "masses" she meant.
Her success had nothing to do with him, her teacher.
After saying goodbye to Teacher Zhou, many thoughts raced through Jiang Ziqi's mind on the way home.
Actually, she got along well with her teachers and classmates at first, but at some point, her grades began to determine her treatment. Later, she realized that as a student who was obsessed with trivial matters, she was naturally not treated well.
That's good. Standing out is not something that should happen to her.
Maintaining a simple life has been her survival rule over the years.
Hua Ansu and Yan Qingnuo accompanied Jiang Ziqi back to her dormitory to retrieve her belongings. In reality, there wasn't much left; she had known this day would come and had moved a considerable amount away little by little beforehand.
Surprisingly, my roommate was there.
Sun Yan watched her pack her things and clicked her tongue, saying, "I was wondering why things were going missing from the dorm the other day; I thought we'd been robbed."
