Chapter 1003 Feng Wu Is Here!
Hang Yang found their ignorance unbelievable. “You know Imperial College takes in exactly 100 new students every year, right?”
Feng Wu and Chaoge nodded in unison.
Hang Yang couldn’t stop boasting about his knowledge in front of the two newbies. “However, there’s so much to learn, and it’s virtually impossible to master everything in one year. Normally, it takes at least ten years for a student to complete all the courses. As a result, student numbers keep increasing in Year 1, and there are at least thousands of students in each year.”
Hang Yang went on. “Therefore, the newly admitted students are known as ‘newbies’ and the ones from previous years are ‘seniors.’”
He said arrogantly, “You newbies have only just gotten in; how capable can you be? There are a thousand names on this tablet, and most of you people are in the last one hundred.”
Feng Wu looked at the end of the list and saw that most of the new students were indeed there.
But not Xuanyuan Yi and Gongsun Qing.
Hang Yang glanced at them. “There are a few good ones among the newbies this year. Yu Mingye, needless to say, is one of them, but he didn’t show up for the entrance test. If he did, he would have made it to the top. There’s no doubt about that.”
Hang Yang sounded confused when he said, “I’ve been wondering, though; Yu Mingye is way overqualified for the entrance test. Hell, he’s capable enough to be a graduate from the college already. Why did he have to get in as a newbie? I don’t understand it.”
Feng Wu rubbed her nose and kept silent.
Hang Yang snorted when he didn’t receive a reply from Feng Wu. “There are other good ones among the newbies. Look, Gongsun Qing is the 500th and Xuanyuan Yi is even more impressive. He’s the 300th!”
Hang Yang glanced at Feng Wu. “Whereas you, you didn’t show up for the test. Afraid, are we?”
Chaoge flared up right away. “Hey! Watch your mouth! Don’t make me punch you in the face!”
Chaoge looked so fierce that Hang Yang didn’t dare mess with her. He rubbed his nose. “That didn’t come from me. All the other students are talking about it. No one’s convinced by your exam results.”
Chaoge smirked. “Xiao Wu is the best!”
No newbie could do what Xiao Wu had done! They could never have built a Taiyi formation capable of withstanding the nine cycles of the lightning tribulation!
Not to mention that it was a lightning tribulation meant for some great master like Grand Secretary Fang! It was such a big deal!
But now, people were laughing at Feng Wu. Chaoge couldn’t stand it.
Chaoge wanted to beat Hang Yang up, but Feng Wu stopped her with a wry smile. “Don’t bother arguing with him. It’s not worth it.”
“These people know nothing!” Chaoge stomped her foot in frustration.
“Yes, yes. They know nothing. But we do. So, don’t be mad.” Feng Wu patted Chaoge on the shoulder to calm her down.
Hang Yang glanced at Feng Wu. He was convinced that her magnanimity was rooted in her guilty conscience. Otherwise, why didn’t she show up three days ago for the test?
Feng Wu turned to Hang Yang. “Let’s go. Show us to the registration office.”
Feng Wu and Chaoge were here to register, for that was the first thing to do after getting into Imperial College.
And that suited Hang Yang’s plan. He was looking forward to Feng Wu’s reaction to all the whispers and prattle.
The Year 1 quarter.
“Breaking news! Breaking news —”
A new student rushed into the area in great excitement. “Feng Wu’s here! I saw her checking the billboard just then and she didn’t look happy! She’s coming this way!”
Feng Wu?!
That was a name full of controversy and mystery!
