Matthew Cullen did not hear Zheng Qing and Xiao Xiao talking about him in low voices.
His back was straight, his steps were dignified, his bright red Jiuyou robe was neat and clean, and his belt and buttons were fastened meticulously. Along the way, he reservedly nodded and greeted every classmate or teacher he met, showing his alienation in his indifference.
In order to perfectly display the elegance of a blood-night noble, he received a full year of special training from the family's old vampire who was said to be the ceremonial officer of the Habsburg family before coming to school.
He had forgotten many details of the training, but some of the old vampire's words always echoed in his ears.
"First University is a miniature wizarding world, and you are the representative of the Cullen family in First University!"
"Every move you make, every word and deed represents the honor of the Cullen family!"
"The laurel crowns of honor are all woven with thorns and covered with dripping blood."
"We are all undead. If we also lose our honor, what do we have left?"
The orange-red light of the setting sun passed through the treetops and fell on Matthew's pale face, interrupting his thoughts.
He frowned, raised his head and glanced at the jagged gaps between the branches with disgust, and moved slightly towards the shade of the tree.
Although as a pure-blood vampire, he didn't care about the ultraviolet rays in the sun; the slightly burning stinging sensation brought by the light still made him feel uncomfortable.
If the gardener at home had pruned the branches like this, he would have thrown them away to feed the blood slaves long ago.
Matthew's expression was a little gloomy, and his dissatisfaction was palpable.
Not only because of the messy branches above his head, but also because of Zheng Qing who just greeted him.
As a young vampire, his mentality is not completely rigid yet, and he always shows some obvious emotions in response to external stimulation.
If an old-school vampire saw his performance, he would definitely ridicule the tutor of the Cullen family.
Of course, the Cullen family has always scorned the sophistication and smoothness of those decadent families in Europe.
Matthew Cullen is a young vampire born in the Cullen family. According to some divisions within the vampire family, he is still in the infant stage.
Like werewolf cubs, they are young, have poor self-control, and are arrogant.
Originally at this age, he should have drank enough blood and slept deep in the Karen Castle, slowly accumulating the energy of adulthood.
But a notice caused a dispute among the elders.
A year ago, First University Jiuyou College issued an admission notice to him, which caused an uproar in the entire vampire society.
As an important member of the Moon Council, the vampires have always had a very contradictory image in the wizarding world. In the eyes of wizards, they are both elegant night nobles and bloodthirsty crazy beasts.
Therefore, the Vampires have always maintained a certain safe distance from the wizarding world.
Vampires have their own private schools, their own classes, their own textbooks, and very few cubs will be admitted to First University.
Even if there are some descendants of noble surnames who study at the First University, usually they will only enter the Alpha Academy.
According to the elders, he, Matthew, should be the first pure-blood noble to enter Jiuyou Academy in a long time.
For this reason, the Cullen family specifically applied for a one-year delay in reporting to make various preparations.
Jiuyou Academy very tolerantly agreed to their request.
Therefore, it was not until September this year that Matthew Cullen stepped into this famous school in the wizarding world for the first time.
I entered this school with full pride.
As a member of the Cullen family, Matthew is proud enough.
Although the clan has only a short history of more than 300 years, the Karen family is extremely famous in the entire vampire society.
"A young and powerful vampire family."
This is a brief comment made by the president of Daiichi University at a certain meeting.
This evaluation made the Cullen family famous in the wizarding world.
Youth means unlimited possibilities, while strength comes from family inheritance.
Since the patriarch, John Hugh Cullen, brought the Holy Grail to the New World on a tattered pirate ship three hundred years ago, their branch has achieved tremendous development and gradually has dozens of members.
Especially in the past three hundred years, the family has given birth to three powerful vampire elders.
A hundred years ago, Lord John relied on his powerful strength to overwhelm those relatives in Europe who had been sleeping for hundreds of years. After integrating all the vampires with the surname Karen, the Karen family in the United States suddenly became one of the top wealthy families in the vampire world.
.
As a pure-blooded vampire, Matthew is also something to be proud of.
Unlike his dirty mixed- or half-blood relatives, Matthew had the ability to completely transform when he was about three years old.
This means that his bloodline is very pure.
In the world of creatures under the moon that values bloodline above all else, purity means everything.
Under normal conditions, pure-blood mysterious creatures have stronger abilities, more perfect bodies, and richer resources.
For example, pure-blood vampires will not be allergic to sunlight, and pure-blood werewolves will not lose their minds; even in general changes, pure-blood vampires can easily transform into giant blood bats, and pure-blood werewolves can transform into giant demon wolves;
Their mixed-race relatives, on the other hand, can only make very simple changes and become various terrifying monsters in the mortal world.
Therefore, from this point of view, Matthew Cullen is very proud of his pure bloodline.
With this heavy pride, Matthew entered the oldest Jiuyou College of First University.
A college that is equally proud.
Here, for the first time, he felt the unfriendliness of the world.
It was already the second week of school, and Matthew found that his pride was losing little by little.
First University gathers the elites of the wizarding world. Compared with the peers I met in my family, the peers I met here are all very outstanding.
He has a strong family background. But not to mention the wealthy wizards such as Jiang, Zhang, and Tang he met; in the Moonlight Parliament alone, the Black family, the O'Brien family, and the Talbot family are as famous as his own family.
This eliminates this advantage of mine.
He has excellent blood talent. But the real geniuses he saw at First University made him ashamed, especially the 12-year-old genius student from Alpha College this year, who completely overshadowed all the geniuses of this freshman class. Not to mention
There is also a twelve-year-old spirit wizard in my class.
Spirit witches are beings who can summon gods.
If there is a spirit witch in your family, he will be strictly guarded in the basement of the castle to prevent him from being assassinated by his opponents or the spirit witch going on a rampage.
But in school, the twelve-year-old little wizard was running around carelessly all day long.
There is no trace of vigilance at all!
This young Vampire cub always gritted his teeth over this matter.
But what struck him even more was his communicative ability, which he was proud of.
When he was at Karen Castle, he could always unite many friends; when the Yuexia family went hunting, he could always win the praise of the elders.
He has a noble background, good communication skills, and extensive connections, but it has been more than a week since school started, and he has only received less than ten invitations to the club!
And the mediocre guy with no talent who just passed by him has actually received nearly a hundred invitations!
How unfair!
The only thing that made him feel more at ease was that his appearance was still outstanding among the students - this was much better than that guy named Zheng Qing.
However, in a wizard's university, appearance is the last thing that can't be called an advantage.
For a face, as long as the facial features are straight and the skin is smooth, the face will not be ugly. And wizards have hundreds of ways to maintain their appearance.
But most wizards don't care about this.
Matthew felt his pride being drained away bit by bit.
He could tolerate the genius Lin Guo being cute in front of him, and he could tolerate Jiang Yu, who was as famous as his family, being cold in front of him, but he couldn't tolerate Zheng Qing, an unlettered guy who just nodded and acted as if nothing had happened after meeting him.
's walked away.
Especially since this guy is now more famous than himself in the academy!
The most annoying thing is that this boy dared to attack the beautiful transfer student in the class!
This is absolutely not allowed.
She will be a good lover, Matthew told himself when he first saw Elena.
So, she is mine, Matthew secretly clenched his fists.
