Chapter 44 Can't transfer classes? Then change the homeroom teacher!
"Class assignments? Haven't they already been assigned?" Xiao Xiao asked, tilting her head, looking quite adorable.
"The current classes one through nine are all temporary, just for the convenience of management during the freshman assessment."
Mu Jin explained,
"After the assessment, all the freshmen who pass the assessment will be reassigned to classes according to their martial spirit type and combat role."
She listed them one by one on her fingers.
"The new class consists of offensive and control types."
"Class Two consists of defensive and agile attack types."
"Class Three is the support department."
"Class Four is a special class, including food-type, healing-type, and some martial souls that are difficult to classify."
After saying all this, Mu Jin paused for a moment.
"And I'm in charge of Class Two."
The dinner table was silent for a few seconds.
Wang Dong'er was the first to react.
She glanced at everyone present. She was an offensive type, Xiao Xiao was a defensive type, and if she had to choose, Xiao Xiao could also be considered a control type, Cui Yajie was a mental control type, Ning Tian was a support type, Wu Feng was an offensive type, and Nanmen Yun'er was an agile type...
"In that case, wouldn't our whole table have to be split up?"
Wang Dong'er frowned.
Mu Jin didn't reply.
Xiao Xiao lowered her head and muttered softly, "So I'm a defense-type student, can I be in the same class as the teacher? But I don't want to be separated from Ya Jie, Dong Er, Lu Lu, and the class monitor."
"Theoretically, yes." Mu Jin nodded, but there was a hint of bitterness in her smile.
After a moment's thought, Wang Dong'er asked, "Then why can't Teacher Mu Jin teach Class One? Class One is an offensive and control-oriented class, so doesn't it need a good teacher even more?"
Mu Jin picked up her teacup, took a sip, and did not answer the question.
The atmosphere at the dinner table was somewhat somber.
Dai Huabin listened without saying a word.
In the original novel, Zhou Yi was the homeroom teacher of Class 1 after the class division.
Mu Jin, on the other hand, was with Class Two.
As for the reasons behind this, Dai Huabin was not very clear about them.
Dai Huabin put down his chopsticks and leaned back in his chair.
"No matter which class we go to, Ms. Mujin will always be my teacher."
He said it very softly, but everyone at the table heard it clearly.
Xiao Xiao immediately chimed in, "That's right! Teacher Mu Jin will always be our teacher!"
Cui Yajie smiled and nodded.
Wang Dong'er was a beat slow to react, but in the end she still awkwardly hummed:
"Of course, Teacher Mujin has been so good to us these past few months."
Ning Tian also earnestly agreed:
"Teacher Mujin's teaching style suits us very well. If possible, I would like to continue working with Teacher Mujin."
Wu Feng held up a chicken leg and declared, "The teacher is good, the food is good, and life is good!"
Nanmen Yun'er tugged at Wu Feng's sleeve, cutting off the last half of her inappropriate sentence.
Looking at these children, Mu Jin felt a lump in her throat.
She has been a teacher for more than a year or two, and the classes she taught before had good students, but none of them were like Class 9, which made her feel reluctant to leave.
"I'm very happy that you all like your teacher so much."
Mu Jin smiled softly.
Dai Huabin seized the opportunity to add another sentence.
"Moreover, our freshman Class 9 has taken three of the four spots in the finals. No matter which two teams meet in the finals tomorrow, the champion and runner-up will both be from Class 9."
Dai Huabin paused for a moment, then continued,
"Based on our academic performance, we should have Ms. Mujin continue to teach us."
That makes sense.
The results of the freshman assessment are an important reference for the Academy when assigning students to classes.
All three teams from Class 9 made it to the semifinals, a teaching achievement that ranks among the best in the entire history of Shrek Academy.
Mu Jin was secretly delighted, but still waved her hand dismissively.
"The class assignments are the Academy's responsibility; the teachers can't make that decision. You guys should focus on doing well in tomorrow's match."
Even so, the fingertips of her hand holding the teacup were trembling slightly.
Dai Huabin saw this but didn't say anything more.
Sometimes, doing is more effective than saying.
The dinner ended in a cheerful atmosphere.
The nine people walked out of the Nine Treasures Pavilion, and dusk had completely enveloped Shrek City.
The streetlights lit up one after another, illuminating the stone slabs on the commercial road with a yellowish glow.
"See you tomorrow."
Ning Tian and Dai Huabin bowed slightly and led Wu Feng and Nanmen Yun'er into another alley.
Mu Jin also said goodbye to everyone at the intersection.
"Get some rest, tomorrow will be a tough battle."
After saying that, she turned and took a few steps, then turned back and added, "Especially you, Hua Bin. Don't forget what you promised your teacher."
"I know, I know, go easy on them." Dai Huabin waved his hand.
Mu Jin then walked away, satisfied.
The five people walked along the main road toward their dormitory.
Cui Yajie yawned, and Xiao Xiao leaned on her shoulder, looking so sleepy she could barely keep her eyes open.
Wang Dong'er walked at the front, her steps somewhat sluggish, clearly indicating that today's competition had taken a toll on her.
Dai Huabin and Zhu Lu walked at the back.
Zhu Lu reached out and grabbed Dai Huabin's sleeve without saying a word.
This is her habit.
When she gets tired, she just holds onto his clothes as they walk.
Dai Huabin didn't shake her off, letting her hold on.
Back in the dorm, they closed the door.
Zhu Lu went to wash up; the sound of water came from the bathroom, intermittently.
Dai Huabin sat on the edge of the bed, his hands crossed behind his head, staring blankly at the ceiling.
He already knew that the class assignments would happen.
In the original novel, Zhou Yi was the homeroom teacher of Class 1 after the class division.
He had experienced that woman's teaching methods before, and Dai Huabin didn't like them.
If he is assigned to Class 1 after the class division, it means that he will have to stay under Zhou Yi's supervision for at least two years.
This is not something that can be tolerated.
But if there are better options, why suffer that hardship?
Mu Jin led Class Two, consisting of a defense-oriented class and an agility-based class.
Zhu Lu is an agility-based attacker and can be placed in Class 2.
He and Zhu Lu possessed a spirit fusion skill, and according to the Academy's rules, partners with spirit fusion skills must be assigned to the same class.
This way, he would have a legitimate reason to go to Class Two.
Dai Huabin went through the logical chain in his mind and felt there was nothing wrong with it.
But Wang Dong'er and the others are definitely in Class 1; if they can't transfer classes, they can just get a new homeroom teacher!
Of course, that's a story for another time.
...
The next day.
The morning sunlight bathed the Shrek Academy's examination grounds.
The venue for the semi-finals was expanded by another circle, and the temporary stands around the examination hall were already full of people.
Not only freshmen, but also many second- and third-year students came.
There are also a few more chairs on the platform than yesterday.
Dai Huabin stood at the entrance of the examination room, watching Ning Tian and the other two walk out of the opposite passage.
Ning Tian remained as composed as ever, her white school uniform spotless.
Wu Feng stood to her left, her right hand unconsciously clenching into a fist, her knuckles cracking.
On the right was Nanmen Yun'er, her emerald green hair tied in a ponytail and hanging down her back.
Zhu Lu had already stood beside him, her long black hair swaying slightly in the morning breeze.
The referee walked to the center of the field and raised his arm.
"Match 2 of the semi-finals: Team of Dai Huabin from Class 9 vs. Team of Ning Tian from Class 9!"
"Both sides are in position!"
