Yin Xiaoxiao was dumbfounded when she heard this, with a look on her face that said, "Wake up!"
Songzhu Academy ranks first every year and has never been surpassed for many years. Boyu Academy follows closely behind and ranks firmly in second place.
In the past ten years or so, the best result achieved by Lianchi Academy in the academy competition was third place. Last year, it was only fourth. Now, Xie Mingxi is the number one at the first glance. It would be strange if people don't laugh at her if word spreads!
The angry Mr. Lian was no longer angry at this time: "These words sound quite pleasant to my ears."
"Well, since you have such confidence, I will spare you this time. If you only know how to blow the air and shoot the bottom, see how I deal with you."
Xie Mingxi smiled slightly: "Please rest assured, Master, I will definitely do what I say."
Mr. Lian nodded slightly.
"Starting from tomorrow, our Haitang Academy will begin training! The lunch break will be cancelled, and we will have to stay an extra hour in the evening." Xie Mingxi said sternly: "I have already discussed it with all the masters. Please pay more attention, Master Lian."
The Academy Competition is a grand gathering of the six major academies and a grand event in the capital city. After the candidates are selected, a training camp lasting nearly two months will begin.
As a master, I must leave alone to give guidance to the students participating in the competition.
Mr. Lian responded without hesitation: "Okay."
Yin Xiaoxiao was in shock all the time, and she didn't come back to her senses until Mrs. Lian left.
"Sister Xie, it's not good for you to fool Mr. Lian like this!" Yin Xiaoxiao blurted out: "I'm hiding tonight. But what if Mr. Lian takes your words seriously?"
Xie Mingxi glanced at Yin Xiaoxiao: "Who said I was deceiving the master? What I just said is the truth. Let's go and get the first place in the academy competition!"
Yin Xiaoxiao: “…”
The Sixth Princess, who had fled before, came back to the door at some point: "You're right! What's the point of the competition if you don't get first place!"
Yin Xiaoxiao was shocked by the confident Xie Mingxi and Sixth Princess. After a while, she exhaled: "Okay, let's go and compete for first place!"
…
The next day, a group of girls entered Haitang Academy, and the first thing they saw was a picture posted on the wall.
The ink on the soft, snow-white rice paper has not yet dried, so it is obviously written just now. The handwriting is clear and elegant, penetrating through the back of the paper.
Only two short words!
First!
Just one look at it makes my heart tremble!
"Well written!" The first one to praise was Li Xiangru: "Sister Xie really writes well!"
It sounds like a compliment, but when you taste it carefully, there is clearly a hint of ridicule.
Do you want to win the first place in the academy competition? What a big statement! Although Lianchi Academy is good, it is not as good as Songzhu Academy. The other four academies also have their own strengths. No matter how confident and arrogant Xie Mingxi is, it is too arrogant to say that she won the first place.
some.
Xie Mingxi glanced over and raised the corners of her mouth with a half-smile: "Thank you, Sister Li, for the compliment. I'm used to being first, even in the college competition, and it's no exception."
Li Xiangru: "..."
Being beaten by Xie Mingxi every time and having to settle for second place was undoubtedly a great shame in Li Xiangru's life for the arrogant Li Xiangru. Hearing these pointed words, Li Xiangru's blood surged.
However, the other girls were quite excited after hearing this, and they all said: "Sister Xie is right, we must compete for the top spot this time! Win glory for our Lotus Pond Academy."
"Let those men with eyes higher than their heads also see what it means for a woman to be better than a man!"
Taking advantage of the excitement among the girls, Xie Mingxi announced the training plan: "From today on, the lunch break will be cancelled, and we will have to stay an extra hour in the evening. In this way, we will have two more hours every day."
"All the masters will also stay together to give us individual guidance."
"In the past month or so, I ask you all to practice diligently and not slack off at all!"
All the girls responded in unison, their eyes shining with determination.
Even Sheng Jinyue was gearing up to fight at this time.
She originally thought that she had no chance to participate in the college competition, and was quite depressed. Unexpectedly, she was selected for the music competition. The original hatred and hatred for Xie Mingxi suddenly disappeared by half.
Among the six arts, her best is temperament. Although her piano skills are not as good as those of Xie Mingxi and Li Xiangru, she is still quite good. There is still more than a month left, she must practice diligently, and then she will shine in the temperament competition!
…
Of course Sheng Jinyue is not the only one who has the same idea.
Those who were selected for one competition list were focused on nothing else. The six people who were selected for two competitions naturally had a harder time. Not only did they study hard in the academy, but there were also many people who worked hard until late at night after returning home.
For a time, the atmosphere in Haitang Academy was more lively and harmonious than ever before - because everyone was very busy and had no time to bicker and get angry, and no one even talked about gossip.
The masters were also infected by the students' diligence, and they had no complaints even if they stayed in the evening after no lunch break.
When we get together to talk in private, we feel even more emotional.
"This year's Haitang Academy is indeed better than last year's freshmen."
"Originally, Principal Gu decided that all freshmen would participate in the college competition, and I was worried. I heard that all members of Haitang Academy would participate, and I was even more anxious. Now it seems that I was really worried. In just a few days, all the students actually
All are beneficial.”
"Yes! Perhaps our Lotus Pond Academy can really shine in the competition this year!"
"Most of all this can be attributed to Xie Mingxi. Not only does she practice hard, but she also encourages and supervises her classmates from time to time. She has no regrets about being the leader of the school."
"It seems that the mountain leader will soon have another disciple."
After saying this, all the masters looked at each other with knowing smiles.
Xie Mingxi is smart, tough and talented. It makes sense that Gu Shan looks like Xie Mingxi.
Gu Shan is over forty years old, and at this age, for a woman, she is not too young. It is the right time to accept a disciple. After a few years of careful teaching, she will be able to inherit Gu Shan's mantle.
…
The day Queen Yu came to class, she was also full of smiles.
"In previous academy competitions, Lianchi Academy unfortunately lost to Songzhu Academy and Boyu Academy. The best ranking was only third. This year you have the ambition to win the first place, and I am very happy."
"The three disciplines of Rites and Music have always been the strengths of Lotus Pond Academy. The three disciplines of Shooting and Control are its weak points. Every year, the reason for ranking lower is due to poor performance in these three disciplines."
"At the end of the day, there are still forty days before the academy competition. Within these forty days, you must not relax even a little bit, and you must try your best."
"If I really win the first place, I will definitely receive a heavy reward!"
All the girls heard this and their blood boiled with excitement, and they all responded in unison.
Then, Queen Yu's eyes fell on Xie Mingxi: "Xie Mingxi, are you confident?"
Xie Mingxi stood up and responded calmly: "Students have confidence."
Queen Yu raised her eyebrows and smiled: "Okay, I'm waiting to see you shine!" (To be continued)
