Chapter 5: After Showing Off Your Alma Mater, Everyone is Envious

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The school year started in September.

Not only Yun Ding High School, but all the schools were welcoming a new batch of students.

Students from primary schools were promoted to high schools, and students from high schools went on to attend universities.

New students were always full of curiosity and expectations about the new environment. When they encountered something new in their environment, they would take it back and discuss it with their old friends. There were also some who liked to share their photos and videos. In addition, they also liked to share whatever they saw and heard on social media.

In this era, no matter how small an individual was, they could still have their own voice.

And in the midst of the clamor, it was naturally inevitable for the schools to compete with each other intentionally or unintentionally.

Amongst them, the students from Jingcheng City Experimental High School were the most active.

“The school dormitory’s environment is elegant. It has a standard room for six people which comes with a water heater, electric fans, and everything else.”

“The two canteens in our school provide stir-fried dishes and free drinks!”

“The teaching building donated by the alumni is really beautiful. I’m so proud to be a student of our school.”

“The self-study room is very quiet. The vast world can accommodate a quiet desk. It’s really a rare blessing.”

“The newly built library provides access to hundreds of popular magazines. With such a library, what more can I ask for? I love it!”

“…”

Everyone was uploading photos and videos of their alma mater.

Coupled with the deliberate guidance of social media, the topic of “Posting my alma mater” began to rise in popularity.

The students who participated in the topic were more or less showing off in their words.

Other than Jingcheng City Experimental High School, the students of other schools were naturally not willing to be outdone.

The exchanges between the reposts were so heated that their faces and ears turned red.

They were loyal, no matter what their schools were like. Everyone felt that their alma mater was the best.

As for which school had the best infrastructure, it was really difficult to come to a fair conclusion, so everyone had their own opinions.

At the same time.

Yun Ding High School welcomed a female student named Li Ziqi among its batch of new students.

Because of her good looks and slim figure, she had the characteristics of an ancient Chinese beauty.

Li Ziqi was already a popular girl on the Internet.

But there was a price to being popular. She spent most of her spare time on live broadcasts.

As a result, she did not perform well in the high school entrance examinations. Thus, she could only choose to study at Yun Ding High School.

Li Ziqi did not have any expectations when she came to the school on the first day of school.

However, the overall structure of the school shocked her greatly.

How was this a school? It was simply a resort!

She could not help but turn on the live broadcast feature on social media and introduced it to the audience.

“Dear viewers, hello. I Am Li Ziqi. Today is my first day of attending high school.”

“Let me first show you the overall state of our school.”

Li Ziqi moved the camera to the back and raised the tripod to circle around.

The bullet comments started to become active.

[This school covers a lot of land. It’s a little big.]

[Isn’t Ms. Ziqi in Jingcheng City? I’m also from Jingcheng City. How come I didn’t know there was such a beautiful high school? ]

[Ridiculous! Are you sure this is only a high school? My university isn’t even this big! ]

[The statue of Confucius at the entrance stunned me.]

[What’s that garden over there… what? Is it a dormitory? Are you kidding? Are you sure that’s not Eve’s Garden moving over?]

[It can’t be? The school cafeteria has abalones, lobsters, and caviar every day? The teachers and students in this school eat all this for free?]

[Ms. Ziqi, hurry up and lend me your meal card!]

[I’m new here. If you don’t know, just ask. What school is this? I’ll immediately drop out and come here to further my studies!]

[@Jingcheng-Geezer I know brother. I’m committed to becoming the most professional local media account in Jingcheng]

Based on the live broadcast footage, it was obviously not a city first high school, nor was it a foreign language school. It was even less likely to be a sports school, and it didn’t seem like a high school affiliated to the university of the arts. What other better high schools were there in Jingcheng City

Was there such a school in Jingcheng City? Or could it be the Jingcheng City Experimental High School that was currently being hotly discussed on the internet? Weren’t the students over there always bragging about how good their campus environment is?

It was amazing! The school environment shown through Ziqi’s lens was obviously not on the same level as actually being there.

Li Ziqi smiled and switched the lens back to her own direction.

Then, she took out the admission notice in her hand and introduced it to the crowd, “You all guessed wrong. The place I’m at now is actually Yun Ding High School.”

[Yun Ding High School? This place is like a trip to heaven. It’s actually Yun Ding High School?]

[Didn’t you say that the school environment over there is very bad?]

[Yeah. The overall ranking has been declining for the past few years, and it has already taken the last spot in the city.]

[I don’t believe it! I don’t believe it! I’ll only believe it if Ms. Ziqi lets me to be her classmate (dog head).]

[Brothers, I’m currently near Yun Ding High School. I want to use my own camera to personally see it.]

Speaking of which, the disbelief was indeed because Yun Ding High School’s reputation on the internet was bad. As a result, the audience could not believe that this was Yun Ding High School.

In Li Ziqi’s live broadcast, there was a special audience member with the username @Jingcheng-Geezer.

He was the representative of the local media in Jingcheng. He claimed to be a know-it-all in Jingcheng. There was nothing that he did not know.

Now that he heard about the great changes in Yun Ding High School, he was a little incredulous and decided to see it for himself and to see it soon.

@Jingcheng-Geezer: [Everyone, I’m impressed. It’s just as Ziqi said. This summer vacation, Yun Ding High School has undergone earth-shattering changes.]

[Originally, Yun Ding High School was located on a wasteland in the suburbs.]

[This place used to be undeveloped farmland. There were even wild goats roaming around the school district.]

[In just a few short months, the entire campus has expanded by a hundred times its original size and has undergone a full-scale renovation.]

[The most amazing thing is that during the renovation process, the original natural park-like environment of the school was still maintained.]

[It’s simply a perfect fusion of technology and nature.]

[I have a feeling that this place will be like Wuhan University and Xiamen University in the future, becoming a landmark tourist attraction in Jingcheng City!]

…

With the introduction by two well-known local anchors, the audience were able to understand Yun Ding High School from the perspective of insiders and outsiders.

The more they understood, the more they yearned for it.

The young audience had the idea of going to Yun Ding High School to study, and the audience who had graduated recalled their young and ignorant campus days.

Anyway, back to the hot topic on social media.

Students at Jingcheng Experimental High School were still showing off. They couldn’t help but comment on the @Yun Ding High School official page, and uploaded screenshots and screenshots of the live broadcast.

So, more netizens saw the following:

The statue of Confucius plus the main school building, a nine-story library, a 30-story student dormitory, a garden-style faculty building, and a Michelin-style student cafeteria.

There were also the basic physics laboratory, the basic chemistry laboratory, the Biotechnology Research Center, the bird’s Nest Stadium, the water cube swimming pool, the Hubble Observatory, and so many more that were still under construction, there was also the art museum, the concert hall, the theater, and so forth.

It really dazzled everyone.

“This hardware facility, not to mention the mirror city, is also the leading one in the country.”

“Our school has it, their school has it, our school doesn’t have it, and their school also has it. How can we play with this?”

“The difference between this school and our school comes from the comparison! Before I watched Yun Ding High School’s video, I felt that our school was awesome. After I watched it, I felt that our school was trash!”

The students were sour. The teachers were sour.

The sourest were the group of teachers who ran away from Yun Ding High School two months ago.

This was especially true for He Yang, the former head teacher. He Yang had been very proud of himself when he went to the experimental high school, but now he was regretting it so much that his face was turning green.

He could only console himself, “Although the outside is important, the most important thing in school is still the inner management. If students don’t want to improve their grades, what’s the use of having good food and accommodation?”

But he was still very envious!
