July 3rd.
On the day of the graduation ceremony, at nine o'clock, Lin You, who arrived at class an hour early, was silently reciting the contents of the memo on his mobile phone.
Inside is a long thank-you speech for the graduates.
This matter is thanks to Wu Jiayuan.
Yesterday at home, Lin You had just absorbed the magic crystal. Due to the smooth fusion, his magic power increased from 158 to 165 points. He took advantage of the opportunity to complete the magic training of the day.
After that, I relaxed and had fun until night. Before going to bed, I habitually checked my phone and found Wu Jiayuan's message in the WeChat group.
Unfortunately, he was chosen as the graduating representative of the duel class and needed to deliver a long graduation speech at today's graduation ceremony.
Since I didn't feel like memorizing the words last night, I had to leave the work for today.
That’s right, it’s memorizing words.
As a student of the duel class, my memory is much better than that of ordinary people. It is so embarrassing to read from a script!
This is Wu Jiayuan’s explanation.
However, Lin You didn't feel that his memory had improved much. He still had a headache after reading a long paragraph.
But thinking about being able to show off in front of the whole school, and in order to pretend to be cool, he endured it.
Continuing to read the thank-you speech, at half past nine, Lin You finally memorized these hundreds of words word for word.
As it turned out, his memory hadn't improved much and was still as bad as before.
But at least, I have accomplished my mission.
Gradually, more people came into the classroom. When they saw Lin You, although they were not very familiar with him, both men and women looked at him with more or less admiration.
Lin You knew exactly what was going on.
On the night of the final assessment, Lin You was bombarded with phone calls from Liu Jun, who kept shouting about his title of "No. 1 in the Duel Class" for more than an hour, and it was obvious that he was shocked.
Fortunately, the news that he was the first in the duel class was the only one revealed to the public. If the news that the final assessment reproduced the historical legend was leaked, I'm afraid he wouldn't even need to answer the phone, because his son would have rushed to his door directly, right?
It was almost ten o'clock and the classroom was already full.
Liu Jun, who was sitting behind Lin You, was now holding his head high and chest out, enjoying the admiring glances from all directions.
Although those eyes were not looking at him, but at Lin You in front of him, at least they were heading in the same direction.
Besides, who is Lin You?
Lin You is his best brother. My best brother got 'Nanbowan' in the duel class. Doesn't that mean I also get 'Nanbowan'?
No problem!
He felt at ease thinking that as long as he kept company with Lin You, he would become redder and as long as he kept company with Lin You, Liu Jun, who was originally quite honest and simple, had become somewhat shameless.
But it doesn't matter.
How does the old saying go?
When the water is too clear, there are no fish; when a person is too humble, he has no enemies.
At two minutes to ten, our homeroom teacher, Song Mingchao, walked into the classroom and said, "Li Xu, organize the group and line up at the door."
"yes."
Li Xu responded. He was the sports commissioner of the class, and he was responsible for organizing the queues for some class group activities.
The men and women in the duel class quickly formed two teams, standing according to gender, but not sorted by height, which was relatively random.
The graduation ceremony was held in the campus gymnasium, but compared to the Duel Building, the gymnasium seemed rather deserted on weekdays.
Although there are many ordinary students studying in Jianghua High School, not many of these students are interested in sports. On weekdays, they prefer to visit the campus duel rather than play ball.
Although it is forbidden to watch the duel class training, there are still many ordinary students in the duel class, and the competition between them is enough to feast the eyes of ordinary students.
The two teams were quickly divided as required, with Li Xu leading the team.
When we arrived at the stadium, there were already several classes of students there. The teacher in charge of maintaining order arranged for the students from each class to sit in designated areas.
Lin You did not follow the rest of the class. He had a speech to give later, so he went backstage to prepare in advance.
There is a door on the side of the podium, and behind the door is a small room specially prepared for people like them.
In addition to him, the student union president and two students from the Duel Department among the ordinary students also gave speeches as student representatives. Although those two students did not pass the Duel Class, they are quite well-known among the Duel Department students.
One is a senior high school student who is also facing graduation, and the other is a freshman who has performed outstandingly in the first year.
"Hey, you're not Senior Lin You, are you?"
"Who are you?"
As soon as Lin You walked into the backstage, he saw a boy coming up to him and talking to him. Judging from his youthful appearance, he should be a freshman.
As expected, the boy quickly said, "My name is Dong Ye, first grade, and I'm a senior from Lin You. I heard that you're number one in the dueling class, which means you're the best duelist in the entire school. I admire you very much, and I also hope to become a skilled duelist like you."
Looking at the admiration in the boys' eyes, Lin You couldn't help but feel elated. It turned out that my reputation in school had become so famous without me realizing it.
"Come on, I'm optimistic about you."
Lin You was very touched by the other party's admiration. He patted the other party's shoulder in an air of seniority, like a senior who had high hopes for the younger one.
"I will!"
Dong Ye was deeply moved and nodded heavily immediately.
The child is teachable.
Lin You also liked this junior brother very much, and chatted with him about this and that, imparting some of his insights on dueling, including the use of cards and magic, and precautions during training.
I'm bored anyway.
After a while, the graduation ceremony officially began. After some necessary etiquette, the school began to solemnly introduce the school leaders, duel subject teachers, and some school sponsors who attended the graduation ceremony.
After talking for a full half hour, he began to read out the names of the duel science students who had successfully graduated from the school.
It is not too difficult to graduate from the Duel Department. 100 magic points + a Duel-level monster are enough to meet the requirements.
Although it is difficult to train a duel-level monster, if you are training for graduation, it is very easy to choose a monster with panel data below 500 points to train.
But even so, not all students in the Duel Department can graduate successfully. About 30% of the students either repeat the year or give up on graduation.
As for those students who successfully graduate, they may not be able to get into their desired Duelist College, but it is not a problem for them to find an ordinary Duelist College to spend their days.
However, wanting to become a true duelist, that is, a one-star duelist in the future, is nothing but a pipe dream.
This is one of the reasons why the achievement rate of ordinary high school duelists is so low.
Because there were so many graduating students, even if the graduation certificates were not distributed on the spot, it took more than an hour before it was the turn of the current student, Dong Ye, to give a farewell speech.
After Dong Ye, it was Lin You's turn to go on stage.
But at this time, Lin You took out his mobile phone and looked at the memo. He didn't remember it very well before. After taking another look, he realized that he was the first in the duel class, but he couldn't even finish a graduation speech of several hundred words. That would be a huge loss of face.
After a while, Dong Ye finished his farewell speech and all the teachers and students applauded.
Lin You put away his phone. He was already confident in his speech and had prepared it. He was just waiting for the two junior students who were responsible for hosting the graduation ceremony to call his name.
But this was not what he was waiting for.
"ah--!!"
A sharp cry suddenly broke through the graduation atmosphere, followed by chaotic shouts.
