Monster Hunting High School

Generally speaking, Charms class is the best class for small talk.

Because a large part of this class is practical, students need to hold Dharma books and recite the mantras copied on them loudly; or sometimes the professor will bring some small animals - such as mice, sparrows, etc. - Being a test subject only increased the chaos in the classroom.

If you gossip in such a class, others generally won't hear it, and even if they hear it, they won't care.

But today's Charms lesson isn't the place for small talk.

After Lao Yao stood on the podium, he spent half of the class reviewing the key points of the magic spells learned last semester; then he spent the remaining half of the class reviewing the final exam papers of the previous semester.

His slightly hoarse and tired voice could almost be heard in the entire classroom. Even if he asked a few questions and the students responded chaotically, the chaos would only last for more than ten seconds, and order would soon be restored.

Therefore, the low-pitched chat between Zheng Qing and Xiao Xiao easily attracted Lao Yao's attention - the field of view when standing on the podium is completely different from sitting behind the desk. Many times, the students' self-righteous little actions are not visible to the teacher standing on the podium. ’s clear as day. It's just that most of the time teachers are busy teaching, so as long as those small actions are not excessive, they will not pursue them.

But today is different.

As a publicly funded student of Jiuyou College, and with many honors such as the Medal of Merlin winner and the title of Major Arcana, Zheng Qing's test scores were only average, which made Professor Yao, the dean of Jiuyou College, very embarrassed. make life difficult for.

What made the professor even more annoyed was that Zheng Qing showed no remorse in class. Instead, he chatted with Xiao Xiao next to him from time to time, and even talked about topics such as transferring to another hospital.

This is unacceptable.

Therefore, before starting to review the Chaos Spell, Professor Yao directly pointed out a certain wizard sitting in the back row of the classroom who was whispering, and asked him unceremoniously to explain the key points and difficulties of the relevant spells, and what went wrong in his final exam. place.

Zheng Qing stood up with a frown on his face and analyzed the Chaos Curse according to the professor's request.

After he finished answering, Professor Yao did not ask him to sit down immediately, but took advantage of the situation to teach him a lesson: "Look, you know it too. Do you know why you got the wrong answer? For such a simple spell, the error rate for the entire first grade is only 5%. Point one, you belong to those five points one!”

Zheng Qing felt a little hot on his face and his head hung low.

Perhaps it was because the end of get out of class was approaching and the paper was almost finished. After scolding Zheng Qing for his spells class paper, Professor Yao expanded the battlefield and began to criticize his other subjects: "And your divination, your grades." It’s only 3.3 points! The paper was deducted 17 points! How did you analyze it?”

"Last semester, the first class of school, what did I tell you?"

"Fu, Yi, and Wen, these are the most important things you study in the three years of college, and they are the foundation of all high-level magic! Learn these three well, and you will be able to learn no matter how difficult the spell is; if you don't learn these three, you will be able to learn them easily. Damn it, you can’t even read a wizard’s scroll from a hundred years ago!”

"How could you get such a score in Divination?"

"My grades are so low. Have you ever thought about it carefully?"

When Zheng Qing just stood up, he did feel a little blushing. But as Lao Yao's voice became louder and his words became more intense, the young wizard became more and more unconvinced - to be fair, a score of 87 points in divination is not considered a success even in Jiuyou Academy. The score is low, not to mention that he also made up for some credits from other places, so the overall score is not low.

Just as he was thinking about how to answer Lao Yao's roar, an unexpected voice spoke.

"Professor, you are biased!" The gypsy witch sitting on the other side of the classroom raised her hand and protested loudly: "Zheng Qing's test scores are very high... If he scores like this, he must reflect on it, If we write exams, those of us with grade points of a little over or over 2 will have no shame in living in this world!”

Upon hearing her protest, the classroom suddenly burst into chaos.

Both wizards and witches looked at Zheng Qing and Elena with ambiguous and teasing eyes. The constriction in the atmosphere was deeply felt even by the professor standing on the podium.

The heat that had surged from embarrassment on Zheng Qing's face had faded quite a bit. But after Elena spoke, she bottomed out and came out with a big positive line, which made him feel like his head was on fire.

"Yes, yes!" Li Meng, who was sitting in the first row of the classroom, raised her little arms and shouted as if she was afraid that the world would be in chaos: "Zheng Qing ranked third overall in the finals this time! Even my sister thinks he is His grades are very good..."

Jiang Yu, who was sitting next to the little witch, had quick eyes and quick hands. He grabbed Li Meng who was talking nonsense, and put his other hand firmly on her mouth. At the same time, he denied in a panic: "It's not me, I didn't say, She is talking nonsense..."

Seeing the noise in the classroom getting louder and louder, Professor Yao, who was standing on the podium, finally couldn't hold himself back and coughed heavily.

The loud coughing sound was like thunder, rumbling, echoing in the closed classroom.

The students covered their ears with their hands, shut their mouths obediently, and became quiet again.

After a long time, when the classroom was completely quiet, Lao Yao took out his pipe from his arms and knocked it on the desk. His tone became a little serious: "Do you think I am making a fuss out of a molehill or being biased?"

He looked steadily at the young wizards in the audience and shook his head: "No, it's not like that."

"We are Jiuyou Academy. Our educational philosophy is fairness and equality...and the practice that best embodies this philosophy is examinations. In-class examinations, midterm examinations, final examinations, promotion examinations, etc."

"We are not Starry Sky Academy. You don't need to go to school with a bruised nose and face every day, and you don't need to go to the school hospital every now and then to stay in bed for several days."

"We are not Atlas. You don't need to delve into the meaning of scriptures under the ancient Buddha with green lanterns, nor do you need to chant to the clay and wood idols."

"We are not an Alpha College! We don't need to waste too much energy on hunting grounds, on campus activities outside of study, and on interpersonal interactions...even if those activities can bring you a lot of credits!"

"For a true Jiuyou student, these are all side courses!"

"You can take side paths for honor, pride, or even for entrance exams. It doesn't matter. The college doesn't prohibit it, and it won't block these paths."

"But these are not the right path for the students of Jiuyou Academy."

"It's similar to the assessment method of Alpha Academy, with all kinds of tricks and endless means. I only ask one question, is it fair and equal?"

Following the professor's last rhetorical question, the bell rang at the right time.

Lao Yao grabbed his pipe, knocked on the desk for the last time, glanced around, said "get out of class is over", gathered up the lecture notes, and strode out of the classroom.
