Chapter 54

The opening ceremony ended quickly, and each class returned to their respective classrooms under the guidance of their teachers. Class 1 of Senior 3 was in the first room on the third floor. When Chen Jie entered the classroom, he was amazed by how impressive it was.

All the desks and chairs were high-quality furniture, and the classroom was semi-circular and tiered. Despite having over forty students, it was not at all crowded. It was a fully multimedia classroom: each desk had power outlets and network interfaces, and everyone had to bring a laptop to class. There was not a single piece of paper in the entire classroom; everything was paperless.

Everyone took their seats, but Chen Jie was left at the podium by Zi Han.

Everyone found their seats. Wang Siyu sat in the middle of the second row, with Man Luo on her right and no one on her left. The tall boy who had threatened Chen Jie sat in the back row, two rows away from Wang Siyu, looking at her with a predatory gaze.

Upon closer inspection, Wang Qingzhe, who had greeted Chen Jie, was sitting at the far end of the same row as Wang Siyu, waving and smiling at him. The girl who had taken over holding the sign for Wang Siyu was sitting in the row behind her, looking at Chen Jie with a strange expression, as if she was deep in thought.

"First, please welcome our new classmate, Chen Jie. Everyone, let's give him a round of applause."

There was a sparse round of applause. Wang Siyu clapped mechanically, and the tall boy and his three followers clapped, but they did so by repeatedly hitting their fists into their palms and sneered. Wang Qingzhe, however, clapped enthusiastically, and the sign girl also clapped.

"Chen Jie, please come to the podium and introduce yourself, and then show us your special talent."

Ms. Zi Yun's voice was emotionless, like a robot.

From the playground to the classroom, Chen Jie had been thinking about one thing: what to say for his self-introduction. How should he introduce himself?

"Hello everyone, my name is Chen Jie, and I have a nickname, 'War Tiger.' Most people call me Frank Chen. I am an invincible champion in the underground black market of a foreign country. In my short five-year career, I have participated in 119 matches and defeated 119 opponents, each of whom was killed by my powerful strikes. My special techniques include 'Hell Stairs' and 'Statue of Liberty Scissors'..."

Would such an introduction scare everyone to death?

Seeing that Chen Jie was not speaking, everyone laughed. Zi Han quickly came to his rescue, whispering, "Just introduce your name, which school you came from, where you are from, and what you like to do. Speak up!"

Chen Jie remembered that Wang Bei had fabricated his school records to make it seem like he was a transfer student from another school, but Chen Jie hadn't even looked at them!

"My name is... Chen Jie... I... I just came back from abroad," Chen Jie stammered.

"Just came back from abroad? Was it nice? Which country?"

Wang Qingzhe asked with a smile.

"Um... the other side of the sea..."

"Hehe, how poetic. Just say America if it's America. What's with the 'other side of the sea'... Are you just bragging? Have you ever been abroad?"

The voice was Man Luo's. She had long been seething with anger towards Chen Jie and was eager to see him embarrassed, so she mocked him.

Chen Jie became even more nervous, his face turning bright red!
