At the back of the teacher's building was the dormitory. The rooms had two washrooms and nine bedrooms and each could accommodate five people or four. And the building could hold up to one hundred and fifty students.
Leading the No. 90 team, Zunhao walked silently.
The formation tech flags weren't working? Doesn't matter! The ones in the newly built dormitory are advanced as ever, five circular gathering arrays in each floor — The higher the floor, the more advanced it is!
No matter what, he had to show these shitheads from No. 90 that what happened earlier was purely just coincidence.
Zunhao stepped past the automatic gate of the school dormitory. Then, he rapidly activated magical energy and cycled it through his body.
He could clearly sense the vast energy from the arrays. Good, it's working. Shouldn't be any problems now…
Zunhao turned fully and waved to the No. 90 group with a delighted look on his face.
It was at that moment, that Xero stepped inside…
At the same time, a loud, heavy thud resounded throughout the building…
Shit…
The magical energy formation tech flags…
F**king exploded again!
"…" Zunhao wanted to yell slurs so badly… because what the f**k is going on!
…
Zunhao was accompanied by the two brothers of No. 89 High, Ji Mingze and Ji Tianqi.
"Uh… you alright?" No one had ever seen Zunhao like this.
They used the same strategy as when No. 88 High visited them. Zunhao set up a trick and it worked flawlessly.
But with No. 90, it was completely upside down!
Zunhao slammed his hand on the table as he exclaimed, "The maintainer specifically told me that they would last a few years or so. It hasn't even been a month, why the hell would it explode now!?"
"…" Ji Mingze and Ji Tianqi also felt that this was kind of strange…
"There's something up with No. 90 High, president… How about we just.. leave it like that?"
"Sorry, leave it like that?!" Zunhao sneered. How could he leave it like that! He had been slammed in the knee three or four times today — This was just abuse!
Zunhao has never felt this vexed and useless in his life; he had been the student union chairman in middle school all the way up to high school. He had always been the top one in social circles outside of school, he would definitely find a way to deal with them!
…
The school dormitory was new, and No. 89 High was originally going to officially open it next month. Right now, there were only six students including Xero who were staying in this massive four story dormitory.
A room had been arranged for the three girls; Misaki, Lianhua and Xinyan, at the end of the corridor. Xero, three other people, and a parrot would be next door.
It was Xero's first time sharing a room with people, and he had to endure this for four whole nights…
It gave Xero a real migraine. In the case of something unforeseen happening, he had tried his utmost best to avoid such a situation.
"What happened today… was real strange wasn't it?" There were two comfortable, loft bunk beds on the left and right side of the room. And there were two tables that were conveniently placed. Zhen Jie sat on the hanging egg chair and swung casually as he asked the question.
"It was unexplainable…" Ancient Relic shook his head.
Although it was the scientific age of cultivation, there are still some things that science can't explain.
Who would've known that the tech formation flags would just mysteriously explode?
Ancient Relic didn't think that the formation flags were poorly built at all.
An example would be, when well-known international company Adidas had released their limited edition fire sword, a public complaint had been filed against them due to safety concerns!
In the end, they had been fined a million yuan.
"What are Student Zhang's thoughts on this?"
"Uh." Xero hadn't expected that the matter would be handed to him.
He had been feeling bored, but if he didn't say anything, he would be classified as unsociable.
And so, after careful thought — Xero said what was probably the longest sentence he had ever uttered in his life, "Maybe the circuits weren't properly checked…"
"…"
…
It was the third or fourth week of school. Tuesday afternoon, half past twelve.
Misaki knocked on the adjacent door; she had came to inform the boys about the student union meeting at three o'clock.
As the teacher in charge, Ancient Relic was mainly responsible for the safety and the spirit sword exchange. As the school president, Misaki would handle everything else.
"Oh. They're resting." Misaki whispered.
Ancient Relic, actually decided not to take a nap, and was writing down plans and thoughts on the spirit sword exchange.
He jerked a thumb at the three sleeping boys and gestured at her to be quiet.
"I just wanted to tell you that the first student union exchange meeting will take place at Room 1331 at three o'clock." She whispered.
"Thanks for informing me. I'll wake them up in a bit."
"Mhm." She nodded and glanced curiously around the boys dormitory; Xero was actually at the second bunk bed, at the lower one.
Xero was lying supine on the bed with one hand under his head, and the other on his stomach as he slept peacefully. His long eyelashes, steady breathing, and the slight tilt on his mouth… he was having a good dream it seemed.
This was the first time that Misaki had seen Xero's sleeping face, and it was different to the usual serious and taciturn expression in class.
"Classmate Zhang is really cute like this!" Misaki's thoughts were filled with sweetness.
