A University and T University are neighbors, and now the results are posted outside the display windows, with everyone standing on the street. Seeing Serena Sterling’s perfect score, Anabelle Rathborne was truly shocked, stunned, and couldn’t believe it. She was confident in herself this time, with a total score of 736 in her expectations. If it were usual, her score would have been sensational by now. How could she have anticipated that Serena Sterling would achieve a perfect score! Oh my god, Serena Sterling next door scored a full 750! How did she manage that? Serena Sterling is incredible; she actually defeated Annette. Who hasn’t heard of Serena Sterling now? Look at the crowd at the gates of A University; many are from other schools just to catch a glimpse of Serena Sterling! Anabelle Rathborne dug her nails deep into her palms without feeling any pain. Previously, senior students from other universities came to see her, but now Serena Sterling has become famous in City of Aethelgard, stealing all her glory and spotlight. Someone called out then, "Look, Director Pace is here." Director Pace really came, his face looking quite unpleasant, next to him was Principal Tucker, who now looked full of youthful energy. "Principal Tucker, this time A University really broke into the top five, and the first in the joint exams is also from A University, it’s Serena, and Serena scored a perfect score!" Everyone surrounded Principal Tucker. Principal Tucker laughed heartily, "Students, you worked hard this time. You’ve created miracles for A University. There have been commendations from above. A University will soon be lit up, with banners and rolling displays outside celebrating our victory, and the TV station will interview us!" "Wow, that’s great!" Everyone cheered. Principal Tucker looked at Serena Sterling in the center of the crowd and praised, "Serena, you are amazing." Indeed, she is truly amazing. The shimmering light in Serena Sterling’s clear, bright eyes overflowed with starry, sparkling smiles, "Principal Tucker, I told you, A University is the best!" "Yes, A University is the best!" Everyone from A University said this powerfully, with the momentum to shake heaven and earth. Then Principal Tucker looked at Director Pace, he coughed, "Cough cough, Old Man Chaucer, I’m a little thirsty now." Director Pace reluctantly bit his teeth and personally handed a cup of tea to Principal Tucker, obediently saying, "Master, please have tea." "Good, be good~" Principal Tucker accepted the tea and took a sip. Students from T University were shocked, watching their formerly confident Director Pace now serve tea and call someone master. Is this really their Director Pace? ᴛhis chapter is ᴜpdated by novelFɪre.net Principal Tucker took a sip of tea and then handed the teacup back to Director Pace, announcing, "Students, today is already Friday. Tonight the principal will treat everyone; let’s go celebrate well." Everyone from A University rushed in, lifting Principal Tucker into the air. Principal Tucker screamed, "Ah, you little rascals, I’m afraid of heights, put me down!" Serena Sterling was affected by everyone’s good mood, silently stepping aside, her delicate lips curving into a soft smile. The sun was just right at this moment. She looked at these carefree and youthful students, remaining modest yet calm, with exquisite brows radiating elegance, like a Pearl Nightingale, blossoming with brilliance. Director Pace looked at Serena Sterling now, lowly asking, "Serena Sterling, is it you?" Serena Sterling turned her head, her bright gaze landing on Director Pace’s face, she nodded, "Director Pace, it’s me." She didn’t call him Vice Director, but Director Pace. That’s because seven or eight years ago he was merely a teaching director. Now, perhaps only the current principal of T University calls him Director Pace. Director Pace was ashen. It was really her, a legend alongside Zane Crawford, the 15-year-old dual postdoctoral, a prodigy of her generation. A month ago, he actually shut her out! Director Pace knew he missed something substantial, personally pushing such a brilliant star toward neighboring A University, letting A University reap the rewards effortlessly! Director Pace’s hands trembled, he turned around, and entered T University without saying a word. T University’s students followed him, "Director Pace, what happened that you ended up serving tea and calling Principal Tucker master?" Director Pace shouted, "I’m a fool, alright? Get lost, don’t bother me!" Evening, Emperor’s Bar. Principal Tucker treated everyone, and A University’s people came to relax and celebrate, practically filling the entire hall, making quite a spectacle. Serena Sterling also came, sitting with Tiana Ford and other girls. Midway, they went to the restroom together. Walking down the corridor, Serena Sterling encountered a familiar face, Anabelle Rathborne. Anabelle Rathborne had another girl beside her, tall and beautiful, dressed in a red dress, looking like a wilful young lady. She was Pearl Nightingale, the Knight family’s precious daughter. Anabelle Rathborne looked at Serena Sterling, "Aurora, it’s Serena Sterling!" Pearl Nightingale’s gaze landed on Serena Sterling, she scanned her from head to toe with some contempt and hostility, "You’re Serena Sterling?" Tiana Ford quickly pulled Serena Sterling behind her, Anabelle Rathborne, last time you lost the bet with Serena thoroughly, you are just a defeated opponent! What do you mean now, you can’t win the exams so you bring backup to fight? That’s too low! Pearl Nightingale, we’re not afraid of you, you’d better not cause trouble! Serena Sterling didn’t know Pearl Nightingale but guessed she might be tricky given Tiana Ford and the others looked like they were facing a formidable opponent, "Tiana, who is she?" Tiana Ford quickly whispered, "Serena, she’s Pearl Nightingale, the Aethelgard’s feisty heiress. She’s the only daughter of the Knight family, and the cherished granddaughter of Old Man Knight, the dean of the Academy of Sciences!" "She knows martial arts, with a whip around her waist. Once someone confronted her, she whipped them until they were completely bruised. Now everyone fears her, mostly worried about the whip at her waist." "Besides, this Pearl Nightingale likes Zane Crawford, the second young master of the Crawford family, everyone in Aethelgard knows it." Tiana Ford and the others swiftly introduced Serena Sterling, who nodded, indicating she understood. Before even entering the Academy, she’s already at odds with the dean’s granddaughter. Aurora seems to be coming for her because of Zane Crawford. Serena Sterling patted Tiana Ford’s hand reassuringly, then stepped forward, looked at Anabelle Rathborne, and then at Pearl Nightingale, "I am Serena Sterling, did you want something from me?"
