Chapter 128: Signing the Confidentiality Contract

"Wait, Teacher! I want to ask if we have to sign it!"

After a brief silence, someone in the class raised an objection.

And what was said just now about completely cutting off contact with the outside world was something many people found hard to accept.

Many had also discovered that after entering the academy, their original phones were unable to contact the outside world.

After the initial anxiety, many had accepted reality.

After all, it was common knowledge that students enrolled in a Transcendent Academy couldn't contact the outside world.

But everyone had a moment of hope, just like now.

After the first person spoke up, it stirred the emotions of many others.

"I'm not discussing this with you, I'm informing you."

Ji Niang's gaze fell upon the girl who had first asked the question.

The oppressive feeling that came from the depths of her soul made the girl unable to even stand.

Her body went limp, and she fell back into her seat, startling the girl next to her, who quickly reached out to help her.

"Since you have chosen Witch Academy, I hope you will abide by the rules of the academy. This contract is to restrain your behavior, to prevent a few people from talking too much and spreading things everywhere. At that point, your behavior won't be as simple as just being restrained."

After Ji Niang finished speaking, her face was still beaming with a smile, as if what she had done was an insignificant matter.

Then, a thick stack of parchment appeared in her hand.

This was the contract the academy used for students to sign.

"Come, pass these back. One for each person. Don't take more than one. Oh, by the way, I see that you didn't bring any pens. That's not a good habit. You'll need to take notes often in a Transcendent Academy. It's best to prepare some pens and notebooks yourself. After all, a bad memory is better than a dull pencil, isn't it?"

"If you don't have a pen, you can come get one from me. If there aren't enough, you can borrow from each other."

Ji Niang looked at the quantity and distributed the parchment.

I was in the front row, and I was the first person to get a copy of the contract.

As for a pen...

I had one with me.

Because of the analysis report yesterday, I realized that my preparations were very insufficient, so I brought one just in case.

I even had a few notebooks in my Storage Anklet just in case.

After passing the contract back, I started to look over it.

Although I had to sign it, it didn't hurt to read the contents beforehand.

I should at least know what kind of unequal treaty I was signing, right?

After a careful read, I understood the general content.

Although the contract was a restraint by nature, with the way I conducted myself, this contract wouldn't restrain me much.

I wasn't the type to gossip everywhere.

So I signed it very quickly.

The completed contract turned into ashes and burned very fast, leaving no residue behind.

My actions naturally attracted the attention of many people.

After all, everyone had just received the contract and hadn't even had time to read the contents, but someone had already signed it, and it even caused such a big commotion.

This naturally made them look over here.

I took a deep breath, ignored the gazes directed at me, and asked Hong Chenyi next to me, "Do you need a pen? I have one."

"Huh? Yes, I definitely need one. Thank you, Big Sis Xiao Han."

When Hong Chenyi saw how quickly I signed the contract, she naturally followed suit.

After all, people have a herd mentality.

When someone takes the lead, it will cause many people to follow.

As a flash of fire went past Hong Chenyi's face, the second person in the class to sign the contract appeared.

At this time, more and more people came forward to borrow pens to sign.

Ji Niang was naturally very pleased with these sensible students.

More and more people completed the signing of the contract, and those who were still hesitating bit the bullet and signed their names.

Ji Niang was very satisfied with this efficiency.

At least no one suddenly jumped up and loudly objected or incited others' emotions.

If such a person had appeared, Ji Niang would not have hesitated to make an example of them.

Time passed by little by little, and unfortunately, my pen had been passed on to who knows where.

Many of the pens Ji Niang brought were also borrowed.

Under Ji Niang's icy gaze, the last person finally signed.

"Good. Everyone here has signed. The efficiency is as fast as I expected. You are all good and obedient children. So let's move on to the next item. Did everyone get this when they enrolled?"

Ji Niang's voice echoed in the class again.

Then, a clear picture appeared on the blackboard.

The iconic style and the pixelated information on it were, of course, the student card everyone received when they enrolled.

That thing was a construct that carried Earth Vein Energy and could also be used to check your own data on your phone.

Strictly speaking, this should be the official way to connect to the Earth Vein Information, right?

New students couldn't bind their student cards to their personal information on their own.

They needed help from others.

My student card was bound by Big Sis Bai.

"This is your student card, and it's like your ID card. It's proof of your identity as you enter a Transcendent Academy. After this card is bound to you, you can use your phone to check your personal information and so on in the Academy System."

Saying this, Ji Niang looked at the whole class again.

"Did you bring it with you? I personally reminded you in the group yesterday. There's not much to talk about in this meeting today. You didn't even fail to meet this one requirement, did you?"

At this time, many people in the classroom said that they had brought it, but a few people looked away, their expressions flustered.

It was obvious that they hadn't brought it.

"I will help those who brought it to bind their personal information. Those who didn't bring it can find me in their free time or ask a senior you know to help you bind it."

After Ji Niang simply explained to everyone, she started to go down and help the students bind them one by one.

Of course, with Ji Niang's abilities, she could have done it all at once, but she wasn't in a hurry.

She wanted to go through them one by one.

After all, she was a counselor, wasn't she?

She had to get to know her students, right?

Just looking at the statistics and photos was not as impressive as meeting them in person.

Although the only student she cared about in this class was Yang Yuehan, it didn't stop her from discovering a few other small geniuses with good talent.

Ji Niang helped them bind their cards very quickly, and those who had completed it couldn't wait to check what their personal information was like.

Although the information on their phones was a simplified, folded version, it was enough for them to compare with each other and so on.

For a time, the classroom gradually became noisy.

Ji Niang didn't stop them.

The passion of teenagers couldn't be suppressed.

She would only open her mouth to stop them after their discussion became about meaningless topics.

The number of students in the class was less than a hundred.

It seemed like a lot, but Ji Niang's speed was very fast.

After going around once, she returned to the podium.

"Alright, everyone, settle down."

Ji Niang simply spoke.

Her voice wasn't loud, but it immediately suppressed all the discussion in the classroom.

Everyone quietly waited for Ji Niang to announce what was next.

"We don't have much to talk about in this class meeting. One more thing is your class schedule. Some of you might have already found it, but I think most of you haven't. The class schedule is also in the Academy System. You can check it yourself. If you can't find it, you can directly search for it and take a screenshot to save. I don't want you to not know what classes you have to take even after school officially starts."

"Um, Teacher, what about the books for class? When will they be distributed?"

At this moment, someone took the opportunity to ask a question that many people were concerned about.

"Books? Do you think the courses in a Transcendent Academy are about teachers lecturing from textbooks? In a Transcendent Academy, there are generally no textbooks. Teachers will only give demonstrations and lessons using the blackboard behind me. And every teacher's teaching style is very different."

"So you'd better prepare pens and multiple notebooks to record the key points. Don't go through an entire semester and not be able to say what the teacher taught you."

After Ji Niang gave a simple lecture to the class, she spoke again, "Are there any other questions? If not, we'll make the final announcement."

After waiting for a while and no one spoke, Ji Niang automatically moved on.

"Since there are no questions, I'll announce our Class 14's Class President. I believe you should have some understanding of her by now."
