For the first round of the league tournament, the Saint Gate gave them a time limit of five days. If they exceeded the time limit, they would be eliminated. If the new student group finished in advance, they could use the extra time to rest.
Li Ziqi's group finished a day earlier. This could be considered a small advantage.
On the morning of the sixth day, after Sun Mo ate breakfast, he met up with An Xinhui outside the Ten Thousand Maples and headed to the White Dew Building. The final results would be announced there.
"I've already asked. Your students performed very well!"
An Xinhui smiled when she saw Sun Mo.
"Are you alright?"
Sun Mo frowned. The dark circles under An Xinhui's eyes were a little serious. Moreover, he had heard that the competition for the representative groups was even more difficult. The competition would be even more brutal.
After all, these student representatives were elites selected from the entire school. The standards of the teachers leading them were also very high. Hence, if they wanted to get a good ranking, they would have to do their best.
"It's fine."
An Xinhui smiled. "Let's go, it's getting late!"
Zhang Hanfu stood at the window of a room on the third floor and watched as Sun Mo and An Xinhui left. He was so angry that he smashed his teacup. He should have gone to enjoy this glory.
"Why don't you let me tag along?"
Lu Zhiruo felt a little aggrieved.
"Teacher and the headmaster are nurturing their relationship. Why do you want to go? To be a torch? "
Li Ziqi rolled her eyes and followed them. After walking for a while, she saw that the papaya girl wasn't following them and hurriedly urged, "Hurry up!"
"Eh? Didn't I say that I won't be a torch? "
Lu Zhiruo didn't understand.
"Don't you know how to observe from the shadows?"
Li Ziqi was speechless. She had to pay attention to her teacher's love life at all times.
...
At the White Dew Building, many people had gathered, waiting for the final ranking to be announced.
The moment An Xinhui arrived, she became the center of attention.
"Little An, you're here!"
"Xinhui, how's your grandfather's condition?"
"If you have any difficulties, just tell me. Don't treat me like an outsider!"
A few old headmasters immediately came over.
Some of them were just saying pleasantries, while some really wanted to help An Xinhui. It was because they had once received a favor from the old headmaster.
However, they were all tactfully rejected by An Xinhui. The Central Province Academy hadn't reached the end of the line yet. After all, getting others to help would exhaust a favor from her grandfather.
Since it was a favor, it had to be used where it was needed.
The White Dew Building was currently divided into two sections. One section was near the high platform and was the seats for the representatives of the various schools. The other section was the spectator seats where anyone could come and watch.
After all, other than teachers and students, there were also many people who had nothing better to do.
"You seem to be very famous?"
Sun Mo teased. He noticed that many teachers were assessing An Xinhui.
An Xinhui rolled her eyes. (No matter what, I'm a great beauty ranked # 5 on the Devastating Beauty Rankings. In addition to the halo of a 3-star great teacher and the Central Province Academy's headmaster, it's impossible for me to not be famous.)
Or rather, who didn't want to marry An Xinhui?
The Holy Gate's style of doing things had always been swift and decisive. When the clock struck nine, the Holy Gate's Deputy Alliance Chief Liang Hongda walked up the stage with a stack of envelopes in his hand to announce the rankings.
The names of the schools were sealed in these envelopes. Even though he was the deputy chief, he had only received them from the main referee, Tong Yiming, half an hour ago.
Therefore, all possibilities of leakage and cheating were eliminated.
"First place, Mingshao Academy!"
Liang Hongda opened the envelope with the first name on it.
"The New Cadet Regiment is ranked first, the representative group is ranked first, and the overall ranking is ranked first."
In the past, Sun Mo was most afraid of meetings.
No matter what kind of leader he was, he would often speak a lot of things without any substantive content. Unless it was a waste of time, it wouldn't be of any use.
Moreover, after the leader finished his speech, he would ask his subordinates to comprehend the spirit of the speech. What was even more terrifying was that he had to write a few thousand words of insight. It was simply torturous.
The second place was Sky Orchid. They stayed in the same hotel as Sun Mo and the others.
The third place was Weima. This was a famous school from Liang Province. The people there were valiant and advocated bravery. Hence, the style of this famous school was to be indifferent to life and death.
Usually, when a famous school fought against them, they would choose to temporarily avoid them. After all, there was no meaning in fighting to the death.
"Fourth place..."
Liang Hongda opened the fourth envelope. After seeing the school's name, he was stunned for a moment.
Their momentary daze caused a commotion to arise from the crowd below.
These headmasters were all experienced people. When they saw Liang Hongda's expression, they knew that a dark horse might have appeared.
"Fourth place, Central Province Academy!"
"The new student group is ranked fifth, the representative group is ranked third, and the overall ranking is fourth!"
After Liang Hongda finished reading, a huge commotion rang out below the stage.
"Didn't they say that the Central Province Academy has declined? Why is it so strong this year? "
"Fourth place. If they continue to maintain this, they might have a chance to ascend to the next round!"
"Forget it, there are still two more rounds after this. It's not like there weren't any famous schools that failed in the past!"
Some were envious, some were jealous, and some were looking down on them. With so many people, there would naturally be all sorts of voices.
"An Xinhui can really keep her composure!"
When Sun Mo saw that An Xinhui didn't cry out happily, he had just praised her for having the demeanor of a great general. In the end, his left hand was grabbed. It was very painful.
Ding!
Favorable impression points from An Xinhui + 1,000. Respect (3,102/10000).
"How much force did you use?!"
Sun Mo almost cried out. When An Xinhui released her grip, he discovered that his fingers had turned red.
Haizhou was ranked ninth, Zhoushan was ranked 42nd, Fengshang was ranked 57th, Chongde was ranked 86th...
However, Sun Mo couldn't bear to listen anymore because his ears were filled with An Xinhui's mumbling.
"Thank you!"
"Thank you!"
It wasn't that An Xinhui wasn't agitated, but she was suppressing her emotions and didn't cry. After Liang Hongda finished announcing the rankings and informed them that the second round of the competition would officially begin two days later, An Xinhui pulled Sun Mo and ran out of the White Dew Building. She was afraid that if she continued to stay here, she might not be able to hold back her tears.
After exiting the White Dew Building, An Xinhui pulled Sun Mo and ran for half a street. After that, they entered an alley at the side. She then turned and hugged Sun Mo.
Bang!
Sun Mo was knocked into and took a step back. He subconsciously hugged An Xinhui.
"Thank you, Little Momo. You let me see the hope of returning to the'D 'grade, no, returning to the supreme-grade!"
An Xinhui hugged Sun Mo and pressed her face against his chest. Her tone was filled with a sobbing tone.
She had waited a total of three years for this moment.
Ever since she took up the position, she had been under immense pressure at all times. However, she didn't dare to show it in front of outsiders because she was the headmaster. She was everyone's hope and backing.
Sun Mo hesitated a little but still didn't hug An Xinhui. Instead, he patted her back.
"Advance? My goal is to be the champion! "
Sun Mo smiled. He couldn't tell that An Xinhui was hiding her big breasts. The feeling coming from her chest wasn't bad.
Ding!
"Congratulations, you've helped the Central Province Academy obtain a good start. Special reward: 1x bronze treasure chest!"
The system also sent its congratulations in a timely manner.
The two of them returned to the Ten Thousand Maples. Before An Xinhui could announce the rankings, everyone had already started to celebrate. Clearly, there were students who went to inquire about the rankings.
"Let's have more food for lunch today!"
An Xinhui enjoyed the joy of this moment very much.
In the hotel, there were also students from Sky Orchid. When they saw this scene, they couldn't help but mock.
"It's just getting the fourth place. Is there a need to be so excited?"
"That's right, getting the fourth place is like celebrating the new year!"
"After all, it's as rare as a phoenix feather or a qilin horn for a school whose goal is to be the champion!"
A few students from Sky Orchid had looks of disdain on their faces as they looked at the students from the Central Province Academy, feeling a sense of superiority.
The lunch was very sumptuous. Not only did Boss Lei charge half the price, but he even sent over many plates of fruits.
"Congratulations, Headmaster An!"
Boss Lei was smiling so much that the wrinkles on his face looked like a bunch of chrysanthemums.
He didn't expect the performance of the Central Province Academy to be so good. If they could get the top three, he would have profited a lot.
Honestly speaking, Boss Lei had given Sky Orchid a discount of half the price because he was betting that Sky Orchid would be the champion this year. If that really happened, the price of his hotel would surely soar next year.
Things like examinations were very metaphysical. For example, the hotel that the champion stayed in would be at least ten times the market price.
Some famous schools didn't lack money. What they lacked was luck!
Moreover, the hotel that the champion stayed in was the best advertisement. It could increase the fame of the hotel.
"Boss Lei, don't just say beautiful words. Do something practical!"
Sun Mo teased.
"Are these plates of fruits not enough?"
Boss Lei smiled. He didn't dare to slight this huge financial backer of his.
"If we get the championship, will you exempt us from paying for this hotel?"
Sun Mo was only teasing. He didn't lack money.
Boss Lei didn't say anything, but a few teachers from Sky Orchid who passed by couldn't help but laugh.
"Get the championship? Are you dreaming? "
The other party didn't intentionally lower his voice. Clearly, he wasn't afraid that An Xinhui and the others would hear him.
"Oi!"
Sun Mo was unhappy.
"Forget it!"
An Xinhui persuaded. They couldn't possibly find trouble with the other party just because of a single sentence, right?
"What's wrong?"
The male teacher in the lead stopped and threw a glance at An Xinhui. After that, he looked toward Sun Mo and lifted his chin slightly. "Is the White Dew City unable to put you guys down just because you got the fourth place?"
"That's right, we are still the second place. Are we too arrogant?"
Liang Pei's lips twitched.
"Oi, aren't the two of you being too nosy? Are you not allowing me to boast? "
Guo Zihao nudged his colleague with his elbow. It seemed as though he was speaking up for Sun Mo, but he was actually teasing him.
"What's your name?"
Sun Mo looked at the male teacher in the lead.
"Chunyu Kong."
This male teacher who wasn't short looked at Sun Mo provocatively. "Why? Do you want a duel? I'm willing to accompany you anytime! "
"Stop quarreling. You still have to participate in the competition the day after tomorrow!"
An Xinhui stopped Sun Mo. Her childhood sweetheart was now her trump card. She mustn't allow him to be damaged because of these accidents.
"The two of you, please calm down!"
Boss Lei hurriedly mediated.
"Participate in the competition?"
Chunyu Kong smiled. "No wonder you are so arrogant. You..."
"Shut up!"
An Xinhui frowned and glared at Chunyu Kong. Her sharp aura gushed forth directly. "Headmaster Zhang is such a restrained and polite person. Is this how he teaches you guys? It's fine if you guys are embarrassed, but don't embarrass Sky Orchid and Headmaster Zhang. "
Chunyu Kong and the others were instantly rendered speechless.
Sun Mo looked toward An Xinhui. He didn't expect that this beauty who had always been well-educated and had the demeanor of a mature elder sister would be so insightful when she scolded people.
Chunyu Kong wanted to say more, but he was pulled by Guo Zihao.
"Forget it, if this matter reaches the headmaster's ears, it won't be good for us!"
Guo Zihao persuaded. Behind him, there were many substitute teachers waiting for him to make a mistake. If that was the case, they would be able to replace him.
"That's right, we'll just teach this fellow a lesson during the competition!"
Liang Pei's lips twitched. There were no stars on Sun Mo's teacher attire. Hence, he was definitely a participating teacher in the newbie competition.
"Just pray that I won't bump into you during the competition!"
Chunyu Kong stretched out his thumb and brushed it across his neck, making a throat-slitting gesture. His meaning was very simple. (I'll kill you when the time comes!)
Sun Mo's gaze turned cold.
"Who is this? Why is he so arrogant? "
Li Ziqi came over. When she saw this scene, she was very unhappy. "I'll kill you!"
"A lunatic!"
Sun Mo's lips twitched.
"Teacher Sun, don't be angry. These new teachers have just joined the school, so they are more arrogant. After a few years, they will be much better."
Boss Lei was also someone with experience. If a youngster wasn't hot-blooded, how could he be considered a youngster?
