Chapter 19 Opening Ceremony

The First Military Academy covers an extremely large area and is boundless at first glance.

The school is divided into five districts: east, west, south, north, and central district. This year's freshmen are placed in the east district.

The opening ceremony was held in the central area.

The central area is also called the central management office, where teachers’ offices and school leadership offices are located.

When Ying Jiao and Lu Yuan arrived at the central area, most of the people in Class A1 had already arrived.

Including Zhu Xingchen.

When Ying Jiao arrived, Zhu Xingchen was talking to a boy in the same class, with a bright and sunny smile on his face.

It seemed like he didn't mind finishing third.

Lu Yuan and Ying Jiao found a random place to stand behind the team. As soon as nine o'clock arrived, the host announced the start of the ceremony.

Ying Jiao had never been to school before, so naturally he had never experienced any opening ceremony, so it felt quite fresh when he listened to the host's nonsense.

"Hey, Ying Jiao," Lu Yuan quietly leaned into Ying Jiao's ear and asked in a low voice, "Does Zhu Xingchen know about you?"

"Um?"

Ying Jiao, who was listening intently to the nonsense, withdrew his eyes a little and responded to Lu Yuan's whisper.

Lu Yuan: "Zhu Xingchen seems to have been looking at you."

Hearing this, Ying Jiao glanced towards Zhu Xingchen, and happened to meet Zhu Xingchen's eyes drifting over again.

Their eyes met.

Zhu Xingchen's face fell and he snorted slightly.

"What's wrong with you, Xingchen?" the classmate next to him asked him softly.

Zhu Xingchen looked away and smiled at the classmate, "It's nothing."

"Oh, do you want to have dinner together after the meeting is over? You are free to go out of school today."

"No, I have something to do later."

"Forget it."

The two whispered for a few words and then stopped, because Class A1 was very close to the teachers' team, and they were standing in front of the team, so it would be easy to be noticed if they made too many small moves.

But Ying Jiao and Lu Yuan, who were standing behind the team, didn't have so many worries.

"Do you really know him, Ying Jiao?" Lu Yuan lowered his head and asked in a low voice.

"Forget it." Ying Jiao replied.

We stayed in the prison of the 11th Army together, went to the battlefield together, and even took a ride on the little fairy's boat together.

They should be considered familiar.

"..." Lu Yuan looked at Ying Jiao and was speechless for a moment.

This answer...is it acquaintance or not?

"Then can you get his autographed photo? Although he is not yet on the list of geniuses, he has a lot of fans, and his autographed photo can be sold for a lot of money."

I wish Xingchen possesses SSS mental power, and it will be a matter of time before he reaches the top rankings. In addition, he has a good family background, is handsome, and there are many people who are fans of him and can afford to pay high prices to buy his autographed photos.

Lu Yuan felt that Zhu Xingchen might be more marketable than the seniors on the Tianjiao rankings.

If only I could get his signed photo...

Ying Jiao didn't know that Xiao Zhu was quite valuable.

She thought of Xiao Zhu's appearance just now and felt that he might not want to get too familiar with her, so she said, "No, not very familiar."

Lu Yuan felt a little regretful, "Forget it."

While the two were talking, the host had finished his lengthy speech.

Then comes the leadership speech.

As she listened, Ying Jiao's freshness wore off. The classmates around her listened attentively, and occasionally there would be a glimmer of admiration in their eyes when they looked at the leader who was speaking on the stage.

Ying Jiao yawned.

She turned her head and glanced at Lu Yuan beside her, and found that although his eyes did not shine with admiration, his expression was solemn.

Obviously he also respects the people above him.

Interstellar humans have been invaded by the Zerg, and the interstellar military was born to protect humans. The vast majority of interstellar citizens respect the soldiers.

Most of the leaders of the First Military Academy have retired from the army, and each of them has made great achievements in battle.

It's no surprise to be respected.

"..."

Ying Jiao raised her eyes to look at the person above. She didn't recognize him, and she couldn't understand the excitement and admiration of the people around her.

Ying Jiao moved his feet and suddenly felt that he was out of tune with his surroundings.

Tsk.

A little annoying.

“Next, let’s invite the representatives of the 1,000th class of freshmen to give a speech.”

The strong fragrance of roses entered the nose, and not long after, Ji Hanyu's indifferent voice rang in Ying Jiao's ears.

His speech was not long and was gone in a few sentences.

Ying Jiao was stunned for a moment and didn't hear what he said clearly. He only heard his last words: "Good afternoon."

"good afternoon."

She whispered back.

Ying Jiao pressed her hand hard, causing her to show her teeth in pain, "The little fairy smells so good today."

After saying that, she pulled her lips and smiled, and when she looked up again, she found Ji Hanyu's eyes falling in her direction.

The two just stared at each other.

"Noon, good, ah, little fairy."

Ying Jiao opened his mouth, only making mouth movements but no sound came out.

Ji Hanyu understood.

He calmly looked away and waited for the next process.

The last process is to issue admission rewards to the top 100 students in the entrance exam, which is what Lu Yuan said before.

A lot of various things were put out.

According to the ranking, Ji Hanyu was chosen first.

Next is Ying Jiao.

"It's your turn, Ying Jiao." Lu Yuan gave her a gentle tug.

Ying Jiao also heard her name, she raised her feet and slowly walked onto the high platform.

She heard whispers all around -

"She is Ying Jiao, the second best this year?"

"She is also a 3S, right? She is even better than Er Shao Zhu."

"Probably, she got full marks earlier than Er Shao Zhu."

"Wow, this sister is so handsome!"

"Which family does she belong to? Why haven't you heard of her?"

…

Under the spotlight, Ying Jiao remembered his last life.

When she came back from her first mission, the place was deserted.

Hundreds of millions of people saw the hope of wiping out the Zombie King and welcomed her enthusiastically. Precious food and rare flowers and plants flocked to her.

Reverence, gratitude, joy... too many intense emotions were tied to her alone.

Ying Jiao thought: From then on, she firmly believed that she could kill the Zombie King.

She must.

It must also be possible.

The glory of the last days is not just a title. In order to shoulder the responsibility of the savior, she never slacked off for a day.

She never regretted dying with the Zombie Emperor in order to end the apocalypse. She only felt regretful - her last life was neither long nor short, but she never lived as an ordinary child for a day.

"Choose one, classmate Ying Jiao."
