Chapter 367: The Cries Of A Crowd

Time passed quickly. Soon, it was Saturday and Xiang Ning woke up at five in the morning. After washing up, he put on the clothes that Qi Jiuming had given him. He stumbled through putting it on before the mirror, unsure of how the buttons worked and messing it up front to back. He had never worn clothes like these before.

While he was figuring it out, a sleepy Xiang Xiaoyu descended the stairs and walked toward the bathroom. Then, when she saw her brother fumbling with his traditional Han clothing, she giggled, Big brother, whatre you doing?

Im putting on clothes! Ive never worn anything like this before, I dont know how to. Xiang Ning pleadingly looked at her.

Her heart raced a little when his eyes were on her, but she grinned. Ignoring that her hair was a mess, she immediately got to work. It was just like dressing up a doll. Although she had never owned dolls, she looked cute helping Xiang Ning so intently, her baby-fat face scrunched up in focus. It took them thirty minutes to finish. Looking at her handsome brother in the mirror, she blushed a little.

He looked just like a gentleman from the olden days, with his warm smile and slightly long hair. His looks would tug at any onlookers heartstrings. She was an instant fangirl.

Big brother! She burrowed into his chest, rubbing her cheek against him. Xiang Ning had changed so much in the past six months; though he hadnt been as thin as a match, he was definitely malnourished and short. But now? Now, he was a young man like the cool breeze of spring, or sunlight on a winter dayanyone would want to get closer to him.

Xiang Ning chuckled and grabbed her by the waist, picking her up. Xiang Xiaoyu, being fed balanced meals, was growing well, maturing in height and facial features. Although she still had some baby fat, anyone could tell that she would be a future beauty. She was a budding heartstopper.

Sister, youve grown taller, and youre heavier! he laughed and turned twice with her in his arms.

She stared at his face. How long has it been? How long has it been since he carried me like this?

He put her down. Go wash up, Ill make breakfast.

Mm, I want stir-fried tomatoes with eggs and noodles.

Alright, alright, hurry up.

After breakfast, the siblings left together. While walking, she asked, Big brother, how many people do you think will show up?

Hmm, its the first day, so maybe about eighty? I heard the headmaster say therell be students from other schools, too, said Xiang Ning. If Qi Jiuming hadnt said that, he would have given a lower estimate: fifty. He took the current era into consideration, seeing as videos could be shared online. Those schools would just need to send a few people over for the sake of formality.

When she heard his estimate, Xiang Xiaoyu took out her phone wordlessly, seeing more than a thousand people in the group chat. She looked at him. Theres more than a thousand people in the group chat, but you said eighty. Sometimes she felt like her brother was very impressive, but other times he was quite naive. He was very cute. She giggled to herself, much to his confusion.

Xiang Nings outfit attracted a lot of stares along the way. It was a normal thing before the Great Disaster, but now, other than members of certain organizations, traditional clothes were rare.

It was an eye-catching outfit, too, or rather the combination of the outfit and Xiang Ning was an eye-catching one, especially lethal to many girls. His sister couldnt even count the number of girls who were staring lustfully at her brother.

Xiang Ning was embarrassed, he was the only one wearing this in public. Although he felt it was cool, it made him stick out. Thus, he quickly hurried along. At least it was only about six in the morning, so there werent many people. Some students were just waking up.

......

When he arrived at school, the gates had only been open for ten minutes. Unexpectedly, the person who received him was his teacher, Su Muhan.

Hello, Mr. Xiang, I look forward to working with you. Let me be your assistant for the day. She grinned at him. Looking at the handsome young man, to be honest, she was surprised. She only had one word to describe him: warm.

Xiang Ning didnt know whether to cry or laugh. Please dont, Miss Su, Im not used to that at all.

Hehe, all the best for today! I think therell be many people here to watch you, she chuckled. She looked at the boy before her. He was already a legend and his current cultivation was higher than most of the teachers in school. How old was he? Seventeen? Well, in terms of strength, his qualification to be a teacher was irrefutable.

However, she was still worried for him. Based on her estimate, there should be at least a thousand people in his class today. And that was the minimum. It was unknown how this teenager who never feared a thousand beasts would react to a crowd that size.

Xiang Ning followed her to a lounge within the arena, waiting for the time to pass. His initial nonchalance gradually turned into anxiety. Even if it was just tens of people, he would still be anxious.

But when Su Muhan informed him that it was time to begin, he slapped his cheeks. Its just tens of people! He just needed to teach them some of his techniques and thought processes, then pick a few students to give feedback and he should be done for the day. But to his astonishment, when he left the lounge and walked through the corridor to the field, he saw the bleachers filled with people. There were even people sitting on the grass, waiting.

That was at least five thousand people, completely different from what he had expected.

Since there were many entrances to the field, when he emerged, he wasnt immediately noticed. He had the sudden urge to run, despite being the same person who faced tens of thousands of beasts.

But Su Muhan hurried him along, and a few students heard her voice. The moment they saw Xiang Ning, their voices spread like waves in both directions.

Teacher Xiang Ning!

Its Teacher Xiang Ning!

I love you, Teacher Xiang Ning!

Teacher Xiang Ning, youre so handsome!

To be honest, he was unwilling to move at all but somehow, his legs did. He even lifted a hand and waved at the crowd. The screaming grew louder. Five thousand? Thats at least seven thousand people!
