Absolute Speed ​​of a Certain Anime

Even she had to admit that Jiang Li's charm had indeed reached an incredible level, making her feel ashamed of herself. No matter who it was, they would be moved when facing this guy, regardless of gender.

When he stood there, occasionally butterflies or migratory birds would fly over and hover around him, as if even the world itself recognized his charm.

"By the way, I wanted to ask this before."

Stella took another sip of her drink and asked, pretending not to care.

"Jiang Li, your last name is Nanxiang, right? Could it be that Nanxiang?"

"right."

"Is it true? Are you the direct descendant of that fighting god?"

Stella had a smile on her face, but her heart suddenly tightened.

I don't know why, but I suddenly felt like a loser.

Although the other person is a man, he is more handsome than her, and he and Ikki even have a strange relationship as enemies, which makes her feel very uneasy.

"Not a direct descendant."

Jiang Li turned a blind eye to the two people's little thoughts.

Ever since his rebirth, both men and women have been giving him evasive glances. He has long been accustomed to this. This is the kind of trouble that comes with having too high a charm value.

"When people hear my last name, Nango, they'll think I'm a descendant of Nango Torajiro, but actually, I was picked up by my master... It's said that he picked me up after falling from the sky on a snowy night."

That's right.

Jiang Li's rebirth is also full of fantasy.

According to his master, when he was walking in the snow, he suddenly saw a golden light falling from the sky, and the person wrapped in that light was Jiang Li.

The master was amazed when he saw this. He thought that he could not ignore this extremely weak baby, so he took it home, took good care of it and raised it.

This actually makes sense in this world of sword cutters. After all, the sword cutting ability of some babies is too strong, and it is indeed possible that they will activate it unconsciously and leave their parents.

But the master seemed to have secretly helped him find his parents in this life, but to no avail. From this point of view, his rebirth is indeed full of mysteries. In this life, he might really have been born and raised by nature, without a father or mother.

So, Jiang Li's luck after his rebirth was really good. If his master hadn't picked him up from the snow, he would probably have frozen to death in the ice and snow.

But in fact, his luck is really very subtle...

"It's almost the opening ceremony. I'm going back first."

Jiang Li pulled his thoughts out of his memories, waved to the two of them, and left the main gate.

"So, Jiang Li isn't the descendant of the Fighting God? This is the first time I know this."

Kurogane Ikki was quite surprised when he saw Jiang Li's departing back.

Although he is not a direct descendant, the Fighting God can give him his surname. It seems that Jiang Li has a high status in the Fighting God's heart.

“Ikki——!”

A sudden low growl came from his ear, startling Kurogane Ikki.

"You won't be turned gay by that guy, will you?"

Stella asked him nervously.

"No way!"

Kurogane Ikki's face fell and he couldn't help but shout.

…………

The opening ceremony started on time at nine o'clock in the morning.

Three grades, a total of more than 700 students and nearly 100 teachers, all gathered in the auditorium and learned about this year's system changes from Shinguji Kurono.

Then came the speech of the Student Union President Dongtang Daohua. Generally speaking, it was all the same old stuff, like welcome, hard work, etc. Jiang Li couldn't listen to it at all.

Around ten o'clock, teachers and students dispersed and returned to their classes.

One class per year.

Located in the First Teaching Building, on the third floor, turn left and take the first room.

There are about 250 new students in Pojun Academy this year, divided into ten classes, with 25 students in each class.

When Jiang Li walked into the classroom, almost all the students in Class One of Grade One were present. Jiang Li took a quick look and found that apart from Kurogane Ikki and Stella, there was no one he knew.

"Nango-san!"

Just as he was thinking this, an excited voice came into his ears.

Following the voice, a girl with short peach-gold hair caught his eye. The girl had a cute face that looked a little childish and had an extraordinary fate. She wore square glasses with gold rims on her face and approached him with bright eyes.

"Are you the camera girl that day?"

Jiang Li remembered her fate... No, I mean he remembered her appearance.

"Yes, yes! My name is Kusakabe Kagami. I didn't expect that Nanxiang-san still remembered me. I'm so touched!"

The girl with glasses was inexplicably happy, and felt so touched that even three days of hard work were not enough.

"You know me?"

"Of course! I aspire to be a reporter for a national television station, so a little thing like a name wouldn't bother me at all!"

Kusakabe Kagami laughed and made a scissors gesture.

Ever since she parted with the beautiful boy three days ago, she had been searching for him non-stop, and finally she got information from the student council president.

"Damn it, she got there first!"

"She's actually being maliciously cute! I've been tricked by her!"

"I wonder what his name is?"

The entire classroom quickly became chaotic. More than ten girls gathered into several groups, chattering with each other. Some of them cast electric eyes at Jiang Li, while others cast envious and jealous glances at Kusakabe Kagami.

"Damn it! He completely stole the spotlight!"

The boys all became as if they were facing a great enemy, looking at Jiang Li as if he were a class enemy.

"Nanxiang-san, I'm a big fan of yours!"

"That's right! Me too! That line, 'It's okay for me to beat you down,' was so cool! It could definitely be selected into the Pojun Academy's Famous Lines Awards!"

"Nango-kun in that video is so handsome! Even the chairman is no match for him!"

"Am I the only one who thinks... Nango-san lying in a pool of blood is the most beautiful?"

Before they knew it, more than a dozen girls had gathered around him, each looking at Jiang Li with admiration.

"image?"

Jiang Li was very calm.

Compared to his past experiences, being surrounded by just a dozen girls was really a small scene.

“I took the picture!”

A group of girls gathered around, and I don’t know if someone did it on purpose, but Kusakabe Kagami was almost pushed out.

She immediately used her professional skills as a reporter, quickly seized the advantageous position, ran to Jiang Li's side, hugged his arm, and pushed it into her destiny.

Chapter 24: Seven Star Sword Dance Festival Representative Selection

2023-06-01

The sword-cutters are the focus of public attention.

Not to mention the professional knights, even the student knights serving as reserves will receive a lot of media attention. If they are a talented knight like Stella, who also has a halo of status, then they will be the darling of the media and the king of traffic.

For example, the annual Seven Star Sword Dance Festival.

As the pinnacle of student knights, this large-scale league, where thousands of swordsmen vie for the top spot, is broadcast annually on television, with the broadcasting rights alone fetching over a billion yen in royalties.

Some powerful swordsmen had already gained considerable fame and accumulated many fans before the competition.

Jiang Li was just a freshman at Pojun Academy. He had no fame at all before he enrolled. Because of his master's deliberate protection, even the media didn't know that the God of Fighting had a disciple like him.

Just four days ago, his duel with Shinguji Kurono was filmed by Kusakabe Kagami and uploaded to the Internet, which seemed to have earned him considerable popularity.

Before school even started, he was already famous in Pojun Academy.

No matter what, he once defeated the third-ranked knight in the world. In this school where most of the students are E-level and D-level swordsmen, he is already amazing.

"Nango-kun, Nango-kun!"

Kusakabe Kagami squeezed in next to Jiang Li, stuffed his arm into her destiny, and skillfully used her weapon to swing on his arm, while speaking with a bright look in her eyes.

"Actually, I've always wanted to interview you. Do you have time soon?"

Her young face and considerable connections made her actions extremely destructive, and she couldn't bring herself to say no.

"Let's chat privately later."

Jiang Li lowered his head and thought for a moment, then, considering her sincerity, he readily agreed to her request.

"really?"

"Actually, I also want to have a private chat with Nango-san~!"

"Actually... I'd rather make Nanxiang bleed..."

Seeing that Kagami had successfully gotten close to the beautiful boy, the female classmates next to him quickly became enthusiastic and came closer to him one by one.

"Alright, students, go back to your seats... ahem, the class meeting is about to begin!"

When Jiang Li was almost overwhelmed by the sincerity, a weak voice came from outside the classroom.

As the voice came, the teacher's figure appeared in front of everyone.

She was a very young female teacher with long, slightly curly light black hair. She was dressed in the standard style of a professional woman, wearing a white shirt and a black hip-hugging miniskirt. She looked very curvy and quite eye-catching.

Although her figure and face are quite good, her complexion is as ugly as a zombie.

Her face was pale, her eye sockets were sunken, and her voice was weak, as if she had been suffering from a serious illness for many years. The students were worried that she would suddenly collapse and lose consciousness in the middle of class.

This look of someone who could fall ill at any time is enough to scare away any fantasies of the opposite sex.

After the teacher arrived, no matter how reluctant and regretful they were, everyone had to return to their seats.

Jiang Li glanced at the classroom and his face darkened slightly.

There were no seats left except the front row.

It seems that the aversion to studying is the same no matter where you are.

Jiang Li had no choice but to sit in the front row, attracting the attention of the girl at the same table.

"Ahem...alright-☆! Dear new students, congratulations on your official enrollment☆!"

The young female teacher smiled widely. She stood on the podium and fired a firecracker towards Jiang Li and the others below. There was a loud bang and colorful confetti flew everywhere.

"I'm your homeroom teacher for Class 1, Grade 1—Oreki Yuri! I'm a rookie teacher, and this is my first time teaching, but I'll do my best to become friends with everyone! And please don't be so serious, just call me 'Yuri-chan'. It'll make me happy!"

Strange sauce added.

"No, calling the teacher a friend is even weirder, isn't it?"

"I feel like he'll be a very tiring teacher..."

I heard someone complaining from behind.

"Well, today is the first day of school, so we won't have classes! However, I have something to announce about the upcoming Seven Star Sword Dance Festival Representative Selection Tournament!"

The Seven Star Sword Dance Festival representative selection battle.

As the name suggests, it refers to a practical assessment system that selects a fixed number of students from the school's total of more than 700 students to participate in the Seven Star Sword Dance Festival.

"The Seven Star Sword Dance Festival is a national-level tournament. All student knights can participate, but the number of places is limited, so each school will select a fixed number of places in its own way."

Oreki Yuri stood at the podium. Although her voice was weak, her expression was very excited. She explained to everyone in such a contradictory tone.

"Although the chairman has already mentioned this at the opening ceremony, I'd like to repeat it again. Previously, Pojun Academy used ability scores as the selection criteria to select contestants, right? However, this year, this system has been abolished and replaced with a practical selection system open to all students!"

Among the seven knight schools in Neon, six originally used ability values as the standard to select contestants, that is, they would send students with better panels to compete, and Pojun Academy was one of them.

However, this year, with the appointment of the new chairman, Kurono Shinguji, drastic reforms were carried out, abolishing the original ability value selection standard and replacing it with a full practical selection system.
