The office door swung open, and Director Li stepped inside.
A faint, elusive smile hung on his face; he seemed to be in a good mood.
Probably a few students in the later classes had awakened some decent abilities.
"Lu Yuan, how's the check going?" Director Li asked.
"Almost done, Director Li."
Lu Yuan stepped away from the office chair and replied.
"Lu Yuan, the school has decided to reward you with 500,000 Blue Star coins. Remember to come pick it up in three days. Don't think it's too little~" Director Li added.
"How could I? Director Li."
Lu Yuan shook his head slightly.
He knew that in recent years, the school's budget had grown tighter and tighter. Offering a reward of 500,000 Blue Star coins was already commendable.
"Good to hear."
"By the way, since you're done checking, you can head to the classroom now and pack your things. Leave anything useless behind—someone will handle it."
Director Li said with a cheerful chuckle.
Lu Yuan nodded, then left the office.
The Awakening Ceremony was over, and the sports field was nearly empty.
Lu Yuan knew that after the ceremony, everyone would be given a three-day holiday.
Director Li had urged him to go pack up his things quickly, probably worried the classroom would be locked and waste his time.
Before long, Lu Yuan returned to his original class—Class 11, Senior 3.
As expected, his homeroom teacher was indeed holding a safety-themed class meeting.
Something about swimming issues? Or internet safety?
He could hear the voice from out in the hallway.
Lu Yuan walked to the classroom door and called out a report.
Instantly, the teacher and all the students turned in unison to look at the tall, handsome figure outside the door.
"It's Lu Yuan! Come on in!" the teacher said with a warm smile.
For a moment, Lu Yuan felt a bit unaccustomed to it.
He knew their homeroom teacher was usually nicknamed "Niece Master Tai"—her tone was notoriously irritable.
Yet now, she was being so gentle.
Once Lu Yuan sat down at his seat, the teacher understood the purpose of his return.
She wrapped up with a final line: "That's all for today. This class meeting is over. You're dismissed!"
Then she left the classroom.
"Brother Yuan, can you tell us what it's like to awaken an S-class supernatural ability?"
"Wuwuwu, Brother Yuan, Brother Yuan, I've actually had a crush on you all along—you won't mind that I'm a guy, right..."
The students didn't leave. Instead, they crowded around Lu Yuan, packed in so tight it was suffocating!
Lu Yuan had always been one of the more popular people in class, let alone now that he'd awakened an S-class ability.
As for Lu Yuan himself, he packed his things while smiling and handling the chatter.
He was in a good mood anyway, so chatting with classmates was no trouble.
He didn't have much stuff—just half a schoolbag.
As for the textbooks and the stacks of test papers piled on the desk, he'd leave those for the underclassmen who came to scavenge for treasures in the Senior 3 classrooms...
Just as Lu Yuan was about to leave the classroom, someone shouted from behind: "Brother Yuan, when you get to university, remember to take a few photos and post them in the class group!"
"Will do."
Lu Yuan nodded, stepped over the classroom threshold, and walked out.
"Easy for him to say—one test paper a day, and he doesn't even see how many subjects we have to study..."
"I bet he won't check!"
After Lu Yuan left, all the students returned to their seats to pack up.
The lively chatter continued.
In the front row, a girl with delicate features was packing her things. Her name was Lin Xiangyu, and she was the class monitor.
"Xiaoyu, why don't you go talk to him?"
Just then, her best friend leaned in and whispered.
She knew her friend had a crush on Lu Yuan, but she'd kept it well hidden, planning to confess after the college entrance exam.
Who could have predicted such an unexpected turn of events!
Lu Yuan had awakened an S-class supernatural ability, which meant he'd definitely be recruited by Xida Prestigious University without even needing to take the exam!
And her friend's implication now was naturally to confess right away.
"He and I are no longer in the same world. This seed buried deep in my heart, before it even sprouts, should be nipped in the bud as soon as possible."
Lin Xiangyu shook her head firmly.
Her best friend understood Lin Xiangyu's meaning and sighed quietly to herself.
She could only hope that her friend had truly let go and would still score well on the college entrance exam...
"Has anyone seen classmate Lu Yuan?"
Suddenly, a booming voice rang out from the back door of the classroom.
The voice immediately caught everyone's attention, because it belonged to Director Li, the discipline director.
"Brother Yuan? He left less than three minutes ago, heading down the other side."
A student by the back door replied.
"Thanks, thanks."
Director Li's expression was urgent.
After leaving those words, he sprinted off in the direction Lu Yuan had gone.
The student at the back door scratched his head. Did he hear that right?
In his lifetime, he'd actually heard Director Li say "thanks" to him—what a rare occasion!
Director Li ran all the way down the stairs and focused his gaze. A figure carrying a small bag was walking toward his office.
"Classmate Lu Yuan, wait..."
Director Li shouted loudly.
"Director Li?"
Lu Yuan heard the voice and turned around.
Seeing Director Li rushing over to find him so hurriedly, drenched in sweat...
Lu Yuan already had a vague guess in his heart.
