Chapter 276: Shocking! Inadvertently Ride on the Coattails

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

After listening to the introduction of the teacher on the first floor, the newcomers bowed their heads excitedly and started discussing amongst themselves.

The teacher surnamed Xu led everyone inside.

They first stopped in a shared space on the first floor.

The teaching building had a total of five floors, but there were no stairs.

There were three elevators on the left and right sides of the shared space on the first floor.

Teacher Xu stopped by the elevator and explained to them, “Each student will have his own card. The elevator has a card-swiping system. Students in higher grades can enter the lower floors, but lower grades can only stay on the lower floors.”

That was to say, the students in the third grade could only stay on the first floor, but the fourth and fifth graders could enter at will.

Teacher Xu brought them inside.

Standing beside Qin Ran, Tian Xiaoxiao wore dark sunglasses on the bridge of her nose. She didn’t talk to anyone and didn’t communicate much with Qin Ran either.

She was about to follow Qin Ran when she heard someone calling her from behind. It was a middle-aged woman.

Pausing, Tian Xiaoxiao took a step back and took off her sunglasses. She stopped beside the middle-aged woman. “What is it?”

The middle-aged woman was her manager.

“I told you to build a good relationship with Tian Yiyun’s group, but you...” The manager lowered her voice, hating iron for not becoming steel.

“I can’t mix with them.” Tian Xiaoxiao played with her sunglasses and lifted her chin slightly. “And do you think they will fancy me?”

Tian Xiaoxiao neither knew anyone in the association nor had a violin big boss in her family. Her violin skills were average, and just as the teachers had guessed, she was only here to make connections.

The manager glanced at her. “Can you learn from how Li Shuangning came back from retirement?”

Tian Xiaoxiao: “... Are there any other warnings? If not, I’m going in.”

The manager waved her away in distaste.

Then, she thought of something. “Hey, wait.” Reaching out, she gestured for Tian Xiaoxiao to come back. “Does the girl you talked to have any plans of entering the entertainment industry?”

Tian Xiaoxiao reacted.

Her manager was talking about Qin Ran.

Qin Ran was indeed an exemplar in the eyes of scouts. Not only was she outstanding in terms of appearance, but also in temperament.

“I don’t know. I’ll help you ask, but it’s unlikely. With her looks, need she wait for you if she wanted to enter the entertainment industry?” Tian Xiaoxiao put her sunglasses away, clamped it at her neckline, and laughed lazily. “I’m going in.”

The manager almost kicked her.

Class 101 was filled with musical instruments at the back.

The seats were scattered and clearly separated.

Looking around, Tian Xiaoxiao saw that Tian Yiyun’s group was sitting in the middle, while the others were scattered on both sides.

Qin Ran was sitting on the left side, leaning against the wall.

She supported her chin with one hand and placed the manual in her hand on the table casually. Her legs were propped up and she sat very casually.

Without hesitation, Tian Xiaoxiao directly went to sit in Qin Ran’s row. Similar to a lecture theater, the seats were in rows.

Teacher Xu wasn’t there, for the time being, so the others were discussing with each other in low voices, their excitement uncontrollable. Tian Xiaoxiao turned her attention to Qin Ran, staring at her face carefully for a long time before asking, “Have you thought of entering the entertainment industry?”

Qin Ran tilted her head and squinted. Still looking absent-minded, she said lazily, “I’m not interested.”

Yan Xi’s manager had asked her countless times.

Tian Xiaoxiao nodded. It was as she expected.

Teacher Xu came in at this time.

He held a piece of paper in one hand and a pile of cards in the other.

Glancing at it, Qin Ran knew at first glance that these were the cards for the members of the association.

“Since each practice room can only have four students practicing at the same time, you will be split into groups of four.” Teacher Xu glanced at the paper in his hand. “There are 26 of you, of which two groups only have three members. Everyone can look around.”

He turned on the projector and showed everyone the seven groups.

The first group was headed by Qin Ran, followed by Wang Zifeng and Li Xue.

The second group was headed by Tian Yiyun, Tian Xiaoxiao, and a boy. It was also a three-person group.

The next five groups were all four people.

Everyone exchanged glances at the grouping.

The group of students was familiar with one another, so some were overjoyed at the groupings, while others were very depressed.

For example, the boy who had been put into Tian Yiyun’s group was ecstatic. After all, most of the new members here knew that Tian Yiyun was associated with the higher grade students and was likely to be a fourth-grade student. Hence, they could practice on the second floor with her.

Some people felt extremely depressed, like Li Xue, who was sitting beside Tian Yiyun. She didn’t expect to be placed in Qin Ran’s group, especially since she had never heard of her before.

“Yiyun, why am I so unlucky? I didn’t get to be in your group.” Li Xue complained in a whisper to Tian Yiyun.

Tian Yiyun was accustomed to such flattery. “New students can change groups freely. Since my group still has space, you can ask Teacher Xu to let you join my group.”

Li Xue’s eyes lit up.

Teacher Xu saw that they had finished reading and said, “Do you have any questions? If not...”

“Teacher.” Li Xue raised her hand. “I want to be in the same group as Tian Yiyun.”

Teacher Xu glanced at Li Xue. “What’s your name?”

“Li Xue.”

Hearing this, Tian Xiaoxiao’s slightly gloomy face suddenly became sober, and she also stood up with her hands raised. “Teacher Xu, I’m Tian Xiaoxiao. I can change groups with classmate Li Xue.”

Hearing this, Teacher Xu flipped through the list and squinted at them. “Are you two certain?”

Li Xue stared at Tian Xiaoxiao like she was a fool. historical

Everyone in the classroom was racking their brain to be in the same group as Tian Yiyun, but she voluntarily wanted to change her group?

After receiving their confirmation, Teacher Xu helped Tian Xiaoxiao and Li Xue change their groups.

“Wang Zifeng, do you want to change teams?” Tian Yiyun glanced at him in the back seat very amiably.

Wang Zifeng shook his head, uninterested in her. “No need.”

Tian Yiyun nodded and remained silent.

After some changes, the list was finally determined. Teacher Xu began to issue the student cards.

“Be quiet, everyone. Next, I’ll distribute the student cards. It’ll determine your authority to study in the association for these two months. Of course, the higher your grade, the greater the authority. If anyone feels like they didn’t perform well last time, they can raise their hands and retake the examination at the office.”

No one raised their hands.

After all, the last assessment had been of the utmost importance to them, and they had tried their best. Retaking the exam wouldn’t make a difference.

Teacher Xu started issuing the cards. “Come up to take your card when I call your name.”

“Liu Nuoyi, third grade.”

“Dou Jing, third grade.”

“...”

Unsurprisingly, the majority of students were placed in the third grade.

He called a few more names.

“Tian Yiyun, fourth grade.”

Everyone glanced at Tian Yiyun. Teacher Xu handed the card to her and said in a much gentler voice, “Take it and go to the second floor later. You can come down and consult me if you have any questions.”

“Li Xue, third grade.”

“Tian Xiaoxiao, third grade.”

“...”

“Wang Zifeng, fourth grade.”

The crowd was in an uproar again. Most of the people in the classroom stared at Wang Zifeng and Tian Yiyun.

Wang Zifeng had been Number 9 and the six teachers had placed him in the fourth grade after much discussion. He was talented but lacked skills.

The quality of the students this year wasn’t particularly high. Teacher Xu glanced at Wang Zifeng and felt very pleased. He thought that the assessment at the end of summer next year would surely be very exciting, and they might even go to Continent M for further studies.

But it was impossible for this group of new students this year...

Teacher Xu had finished sending out the student cards but had yet to call Qin Ran.

Playing with her sunglasses, Tian Xiaoxiao saw that Qin Ran had yet to take her student card and was a little anxious. “When’s your turn?”

Qin Ran was still chatting with Lin Siran when she heard this. Throwing her phone on the table casually, she leaned back lazily and shrugged. “I don’t know.”

At that time, Teacher Xu took out the last card and paused for a while. His voice became much gentler as he said, “Qin Ran, fifth grade.”

The sounds of whispers in the classroom suddenly disappeared.

Master Wei had anticipated this grade for her, so Qin Ran wasn’t very surprised. She went up and took her student card very calmly. “Thank you, teacher.”

“There are freshmen in the fifth grade?” After a moment of silence, the new members who knew the association’s grading system exploded in surprise. “I remember that Teacher Dai’s student, Qin Yu, is only in the fifth grade, right?”

“Level 5, whose apprentice is she...”

Everyone had been envious when Li Xue switched to Tian Yiyun’s group just now, but at this time.... they couldn’t help but turn their attention to her...
