Chapter 27 Disciplinary Officer 1
Chapter 27 Disciplinary Officer 1
"Cai Fei was born on the fifth day of the fifth month in 5818. He is a cultivator from Wujialing in Sushanfang."
The record of Cai Fei on the roster is very simple, with only the time and place of birth. Even the most common items such as "parents, family, dantian, and cultivation method" are missing, making it particularly brief in the entire list.
"This kid just registered in early March, but he's actually a bit special..."
Inside the academy's headmaster's hut, two elderly people sat facing each other. The academy's headmaster smiled and handed Long Hen a jade slip: "Only you and I have the right to see this information. It contains his test records. You'll understand why once you take a look."
As is customary, when students enter the academy, the academy will conduct a thorough examination of their dantian and sea of consciousness, and at the same time make a general assessment of their future prospects.
Longhen took the jade slip and stuck it to his forehead. He used his divine sense to open Cai Fei's entry, but all he saw was a cloud of blood mist.
This is a blood curse set by the Imperial Academy of Heaven. Cultivators must use their blood essence to break the curse in order to see what is behind the blood mist. After that, their souls are bound by their own constraints and cannot reveal what they have seen or heard. Its effect is even greater than the soul oath talismans sold on the market.
Longhen sighed—he had lived for over 180 years and seen many strange things, but this was the first time he had ever had to bleed to look at a student's information.
"I'd like to see what's so special about this kid."
He reversed his internal energy flow, bit his fingertip, and touched the jade slip.
The blood mist dissipated.
Nine characters, like an inscription on a tombstone, coldly etched there:
Nine miscellaneous dantian, the innate remnant of one's destiny.
There is also a signature on the side: Guo Lichan – it is the dean's own handwriting.
That's it!
Longhen fell silent.
"The fifth day of the fifth lunar month is a day of many misfortunes. There's truth to that old proverb," the dean sighed. "But it just means you can't advance to the Foundation Establishment stage. If you can accept your fate, you can live a carefree life."
"Who would accept their fate at such a young age?"
Longhen recalled the bright, intelligent eyes of the young man when he handed in his application. He was trying to create a better environment for himself, and his goal was clear: to immigrate to the Great Wilderness.
"You plan to make him the class's discipline officer?" the dean asked with a smile. "I'm afraid it will cause a lot of trouble, making it impossible for you to stand idly by."
Longhen pondered, "I wonder how his divination skills are. If possible, it would be best to put him in the 'Heaven' class. Although this child has no hope of reaching Foundation Establishment, with his current cultivation level, he would still be in the top ten even in the 'Heaven' class. Shouldn't the academy contact the Star Moon Sect and give him a chance?"
"Impossible, he's from Wujialing," the old dean reminded him.
"Wujia Ridge?" Longhen frowned and tilted his head, waiting for distant memories to surface before looking directly at the old headmaster and saying, "Could it be... a remnant branch of Wujia Village?"
"Exactly!" The old dean nodded solemnly and gave a general account of how Cai Fei was adopted by Xu Ping'an.
"Heh, that's quite interesting."
A child whose life force was crippled by his own father and abandoned by both his parents' families, didn't seek revenge on society. Instead, he came to the academy to become a disciplinary officer...
Indeed, it retains the style of my village!
Longhen didn't say much, just drank a few sips of tea and then took his leave.
The next morning, after the morning study session ended, Longhen kept the entire class of the Earth Class behind.
Longhen beckoned Cai Fei to stand in front of everyone and announced, "From today onwards, Cai Fei will serve as the Discipline Officer of the 'Earth' Class. He will supervise the class's discipline on my behalf and has the power to punish. Seeing him is like seeing me. If you have any grievances, you can come to me to file a complaint."
After saying this in a simple sentence, he gave up his seat and let Cai Fei say a few words.
Class discipline officer?
More than sixty faces were all wearing the same expression: What the hell is this?
Cai Fei was also completely bewildered—yesterday he said, "This is a matter of great importance and needs to be considered," and today he was appointed directly without even a notification.
"Heh." He chuckled dryly, trying to appear composed. "I won't say another word. I just want the classroom to be quiet. If you want to cause trouble, let's be open about it—one-on-one or group fight, I'll take it all. If you want to play dirty tricks, I'll ask Teacher Long to deal with you."
After speaking, he cupped his hands in a respectful gesture to everyone and stepped aside.
There was a three-second silence.
Class discipline officer, acting as the teacher in charge of the class, is that all you've said?
However, Longhen was also tongue-tied and had nothing to say, so he remained silent. He took out three communication talismans from his Qiankun bag and handed them to Cai Fei: "Send these talismans if anything happens, and I'll be there within moments. Do a good job!"
After saying that, he patted Cai Fei on the shoulder, stepped onto his flying sword, and soared into the sky.
A group of teenagers were left staring at each other in bewilderment.
However, since it was after class, after a brief respite, everyone went off to play.
After the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, driven by the school bell, everyone gathered again at the morning study area. Each person took out a desk from their storage bag, sat cross-legged, and began listening to the lesson "Great Wilderness Insight".
The instructor's surname is Yin. He is young, delicate, and has a strong cultivation level—Ninth Level of Qi Refining. His greatest characteristic is his ability to endure.
So many teachers left the class recently, but he was the only one who stayed, all because of his thick skin.
He was originally the assistant assigned to the female Foundation Establishment student surnamed Yue in the "Heaven" class of the academy. He didn't understand the Great Wilderness Tongyan at first, but now he was learning and teaching at the same time. Every day he would go to the Heaven class to listen to Teacher Yue talk about the "Great Wilderness Tongyan", and the next day he would go to teach the Earth, Xuan and Huang classes. His tasks were heavy, but his salary was only one-tenth of Teacher Yue's.
In the past, everyone treated Teacher Yin as if she didn't exist, and the classroom was like a vegetable market. But today was a little different. The newly appointed class discipline officer sat at the back, sitting upright with a serious face, which made everyone feel a little restrained.
"In the Great Wilderness there is a beast called the Snoring Beast... It... It..."
However, the young teacher on the stage still looked weak and listless, reading from the book verbatim, stumbling over a passage, getting stuck, flipping through the materials in his hand to find the phonetic symbols, and then weakly and feebly translating it into the language of the wilderness...
The class was incredibly boring, and the student in the audience who called himself the "discipline officer" was just busy taking notes, completely oblivious to what this "discipline officer" was all about.
So everything remains the same?
Fifteen minutes later, everyone returned to normal, relaxing their bodies, leaning to the side, chatting quietly, taking out notebooks to draw, and the person next to them gesturing with fists and feet...
"Bang!"
One of the students in the front row, who was gesturing with his fists and feet, suddenly pulled out a shield. His opponent punched the shield, making a loud noise, which startled the whole class.
But this was just the norm. Teacher Yin looked up at the person, as if she wanted to say something, but in the end she remained silent and continued reading.
"Number 2 in the B-series, since this is your first offense, we'll let it slide this time. If you repeat this offense, you'll be punished by standing!"
A voice suddenly rang out from the back row. It wasn't loud, but it was very clear.
The whole class turned around in unison—the disciplinary committee had opened for business.
Teacher Yin held the book, her hands trembling slightly. The teacher was still on the stage, and the students were supposed to manage the discipline. Where could she put her face?
He stared blankly for a while before awkwardly continuing to read: "The Huru Beast... uh, there are three pronunciations in the Great Wilderness Language..."
This interruption did improve discipline somewhat; no one wanted to be called on in class by a peer, so the atmosphere was a bit strange, but it was definitely much quieter.
The one who was singled out was indignant, feeling he had lost face. He held his head high and looked around, trying to get his revenge, but everyone around him had their heads down and no one paid him any attention. Feeling bored, he gave up.
Unfortunately, their good mood didn't last long. Just five minutes later, the group couldn't sit still anymore. First, they swayed and staggered, then they whispered among themselves. Within minutes, their voices grew louder and louder, like a buzzing of mosquitoes.
"Numbers A1, A3, A6; Numbers B2, A3, A5; Number C..." Cai Fei rattled off the names of more than a dozen people in one breath, then announced, "First-time offenders, warning. Number B2, Feng Xiangguo, is a repeat offender. Please stand outside in the courtyard as punishment during the next class!"
The whole class fell silent for a moment, except for Feng Xiangguo shouting loudly, "I'm not going, what are you going to do about it!"
