The Nuwa Elite Training Academy is decorated in a very Chinese retro style, and it is quite exquisite and gorgeous, but it is particularly rigid. Moreover, the staff and teaching assistants inside are completely silent when they walk around, as if there is no living person inside. Even in broad daylight, it makes people feel gloomy and terrifying.
Just before entering the room, Xie Li glanced at his phone.
Several friends replied to her message.
However, before Xie Li could see, the teaching assistant's disgustingly bitter face suddenly appeared behind him.
"Miss Xie Li, you are not allowed to use your phone during class. Please hand it to me."
Xie Li: "No, this phone of mine is quite valuable. What if you take it and don't return it?"
This reason was so plausible that even the teaching assistant's bitter face twitched. He was furious inside, and his eyes couldn't help but show a hint of disdain. He thought to himself, "Who cares about your broken phone?"
Xie Li's phone looked quite ordinary; it wasn't the latest trendy brand she'd seen on the market, but something she'd brought from Tiandu Mountain.
No wonder the teaching assistant disliked it.
The teaching assistant said sternly, "These are the rules."
The school rules do state that students must hand in their phones upon entering the classroom and can only retrieve them from the teaching assistant when leaving.
Xie Li thought for a moment, "Can I turn off my phone? My phone is super expensive, I'm afraid I couldn't afford to pay for it even if I sold you."
Teaching assistant: "..."
The teaching assistant's sour face instantly darkened, already showing signs of impatience.
"Never mind, it's fine. Let her turn off the phone and take it in." The master suddenly spoke up, and even smiled at Xie Li.
As they spoke, the group arrived at a classroom. The wooden door opened, and several girls were kneeling upright inside. One of them was Jiang Qingyu.
As soon as the master entered, several people immediately bowed and kowtowed, as if performing some kind of sacred ritual. Their faces were filled with piety, and their eyes were full of worship as they looked at the master.
Even Jiang Qingyu kept bowing and chanting incantations.
Xie Li stood expressionless at the door, watching the strange scene in the classroom without saying a word.
"Is this really a training academy? Or is it a scam?" A voice, full of doubt yet brimming with energy, rang out in the corridor.
He followed up with, "Take away my phone? Dream on! You want me cut off from the outside world and at your mercy? Do you think I'm stupid?"
As they were talking, the person who entered pushed open the door and exclaimed in surprise, "Xie Li? You're wearing a dress? It looks quite nice!"
After Chen Lian finished speaking, she felt that she had given Xie Li too much credit, so she quickly cleared her throat and corrected herself, "I meant, it's so-so, it's passable."
When she looked up, she met a pair of indifferent eyes and couldn't help but exclaim "Holy crap!"
"Wow, there were so many people in the classroom! I thought there was no one there."
Even the usually amiable master's face showed a rare crack.
A stern-faced teaching assistant entered and whispered a few words in the master's ear.
Chen Lian quietly told Xie Li, "My mother used some tricks to get me to come in and keep you company."
She whispered to Xie Li without any discomfort, and couldn't help but complain, "You don't know, my mom was almost scared to death when she heard that I was going to some socialite training class."
Meanwhile, the master had also reached an agreement to accept Chen Lian, the temporary transfer student.
The teaching assistant brought two futons and cushions, and had the two kneel and sit while listening to the lecture.
Shen Lian, with a flourish, immediately sat down cross-legged.
The teaching assistant's expression darkened slightly, and Xie Li noticed that, in that instant, the assistant subconsciously raised his hand—
