If one were to shallowly assume that Principal Gao was only satisfied with winning over the parents, they would be gravely mistaken.

This promotional advertisement focused on moving the parents, but its appeal to the children was, more or less, lacking.

Principal Gao was a perfectionist.

Parents, children—he wanted them all.

"Li Luo, do you feel like this promotional video is missing something?" Principal Gao tossed the question out deliberately.

"Oh? What does the Principal mean?" Li Luo asked.

Principal Gao pondered, "If we added some elements of a heroic youth to the beginning of this video, wouldn't it be better?"

Without waiting for Li Luo's answer, Principal Gao slapped his thigh, "That's it, exactly."

He gazed at Li Luo with burning eyes.

Bright eyes and white teeth.

Flowing long hair.

Every gesture carried an unspoken, noble temperament.

Li Luo's appearance was simply too perfect for this.

If he were to put on white robes and hold a long sword, wouldn't he be the spitting image of an immortal descended from the heavens?

Just thinking about it made Principal Gao feel it would be impossibly cool.

How could those little boys and girls possibly resist the face of an immortal?

In order to see their idol, They would surely come to Red Mountain Academy to enroll obediently.

Principal Gao said excitedly, "We are going to film a segment with an immortal."

"Li Luo, you'll play the part!"

"This?!" Li Luo hesitated, "Principal, this..."

Principal Gao waved his hand, his spirit soaring, "Li Luo, don't worry, the school will pay more."

"In addition to gifting you a century-old soul spirit."

"The school will give you an extra thirty thousand in scholarships."

Li Luo was stunned; he swore that his hesitation just now wasn't because he wanted to be a mercenary.

It was just that he felt Old Gao's train of thought was a bit erratic!

However, Li Luo quite liked this principal.

He actively offered a suggestion, "Principal, when we film the immortal, we could consider incorporating some plot points."

"For example, some common tropes like the 'good-for-nothing' arc, the 'broken engagement' arc, or perhaps a combination of both..."

Li Luo was absolutely not doing this for the money.

He was purely dedicated to the development of Red Mountain Academy.

He was a person of Red Mountain Academy in life.

And he would be a ghost of Red Mountain Academy in death.

He was duty-bound to make a contribution to the school.

A look of confusion flashed across Principal Gao's face, "Xiao Luo, what do you mean?"

Li Luo's words had touched the depths of Principal Gao's soul—or rather, his blind spot.

The Principal was the financier; he had to be served well!

Pah!

The Principal was a man who had developed a receding hairline for the sake of education and had transcended low-level interests.

How could Li Luo not explain it properly to Principal Gao?

He immediately dissected the case of the "Immortal Li" from his past life on Blue Star for the Principal.

Principal Gao understood, and he remarked with emotion, "Xiao Luo, what you said is excellent, especially that last line: 'There are three thousand gods in the heavens, yet even they must lower their brows upon seeing him.'"

"We will film it exactly like that."

They started immediately.

Principal Gao synchronized the entire concept with the filming crew right away.

When it was time to start shooting, they realized they were missing a girl to act opposite Li Luo.

Principal Gao shouted, "Teacher Lin, quickly, go find a female student to partner with Li Luo."

"Ah?! Partner for what?" Lin Ximeng asked, stunned.

After bringing Li Luo to the filming site, she stopped paying attention to the filming involving Li Luo and Principal Gao.

Instead, she focused entirely on studying the Gangzi's Notes circulating on the market.

Lin Ximeng had just reached the section on Gangzi's Ten Great Theories.

When she was suddenly shouted at by Principal Gao.

"What are you 'ah-ing' about? Go, quickly!" Principal Gao urged.

Lin Ximeng nodded hurriedly, "Alright, Principal, I'll go find one right away."

But after she arrived at the classroom, Lin Ximeng finally regained her senses. The principal had asked her to find a female student to be Li Luo's partner, but there were no female students in her class—they were all boys.

School was already over.

Students from other classes had all left.

Only her class remained in the room because she hadn't been there to announce the dismissal.

"What should I do?" Lin Ximeng felt a headache coming on.

She had already annoyed the principal by slacking off earlier; if she didn't bring someone back, she might get chewed out.

Anxiety appeared on her face as her eyes swept back and forth across the classroom.

She hoped she could conjure up a female student out of thin air.

Suddenly!

Lin Ximeng's eyes lit up, her gaze fixed squarely on Tang Wulin.

"He's the one."

Lin Ximeng thought of a solution: cross-dressing. Besides, the principal hadn't specified that the female student had to be a girl.

Finding a male student to dress up as a girl would work just as well!

How clever.

Lin Ximeng gave herself a mental pat on the back for her brilliance.

In the entire class, if one were to talk about the best-looking, it would certainly be Li Luo!

Other than Li Luo, Tang Wulin's appearance was, at the very least, passable.

"Tang Wulin, come out with me."

Lin Ximeng said.

Tang Wulin stood up, feeling a bit puzzled, and followed Lin Ximeng outside the classroom.

Lin Ximeng began, "Student Tang Wulin, the teacher needs your help with something. Can you help me?"

"May I ask what it is, Teacher?" Tang Wulin asked.

Tang Wulin was truly worthy of being the possessor of the Golden Dragon King bloodline. If it were an ordinary child, they would have surely agreed immediately upon a teacher's request.

But Tang Wulin did not.

The Golden Dragon King aura was still quite powerful.

Lin Ximeng was slightly surprised and explained, "Teacher has a filming task that requires a female student. As you know, Wulin, there are no female students in our class."

"So, Teacher needs your help to play the role of a female student."

"Can you do it?"

Lin Ximeng's voice was very gentle. She felt that in her current state, ninety-nine percent of students would be instantly won over.

But she hadn't expected Tang Wulin to hesitate.

"Teacher, can I choose not to act?" Tang Wulin bravely expressed his wishes.

He was a man who stood tall and upright.

If he played a female student, what would Li Luo think of him?

Would he call him a sissy and refuse to play with him anymore?

Tang Wulin cheered himself on internally, For Brother Luo, I cannot act!

Lin Ximeng felt it was necessary to bring out her trump card. "Student Wulin, if you agree to help Teacher, I can recommend you to be the class monitor next semester."

Tang Wulin shook his head vigorously. "The current class monitor, Li Luo, is doing a great job. I have no desire to be class monitor."

"I'm sorry, Teacher."

"You should look for someone else."

Lin Ximeng felt deeply frustrated. Should she look for that little fatty Wan Yunchao in the class? She imagined the image of Wan Yunchao in women's clothing and shuddered involuntarily. It would be better not to ruin things for Li Luo.

She sighed, "Alright, Teacher respects your wishes. You may return to the classroom."

"Help me ask if anyone else is willing to dress as a girl and act as Li Luo's girlfriend."

Tang Wulin was stunned. "Teacher, who did you say he would be acting as a boyfriend and girlfriend with?"

"With Li Luo, of course!" Lin Ximeng said strangely. "Did I not make myself clear just now?"
