Chapter 527: Chapter 527: Boss, Please Take Me_1

"Are you parents?"

Upon hearing Lu Xiang’s answer, the little girl’s eyes widened in surprise. She had been at Purple Wisteria Academy for quite some time and had never seen any parents at the academy.

According to the academy’s rules and regulations, during the school term, parents were not allowed to visit for the entire semester. The train to the academy was secretly notified to them, and after the start of each term, all trains would stop. The academy controlled this very strictly. There had even been students who were held back a grade because they missed the last train and were absent for an entire semester’s courses.

She excitedly added another sentence, "Your child must be exceptionally talented, right? Were you specially invited by the academy to give a lecture?"

This thorny question silenced both Lu Xiang and Song Lan.

In fact, not only did their child not attend Purple Wisteria Academy, but the couple had not even started thinking about it.

"You’ve misunderstood, we’re just here to learn about the situation."

Facing the excited little girl, Lu Xiang explained somewhat apologetically.

"Are they this year’s Newborn?"

However, Lu Xiang’s explanation did nothing to diminish the little girl’s enthusiasm. She rattled on as if a floodgate had opened, "According to the rules, the school wouldn’t invite parents. Your child must have performed extremely well in the first test, potentially reaching the ’average’ or even ’high’ level in one of the evaluations!"

When she enrolled, she heard from her upperclassmen that some students with unique abilities got one or even two ’high’ ratings at the start of their studies. Such Newborns became the focus of the teachers and were coveted among the students.

Psychic abilities themselves were seen as 80% talent and 20% hard work, even the school teachers said so.

Despite statements made by students every year like "A king has the talent of a king, a chef has the talent of a chef, Spiritual Energy itself has no strong or weak," reality always deals a ruthless blow to those who hold to this belief.

Time and again, it had been proven that not only did Psychic Abilities vary in strength, but also that those the outsiders saw as "geniuses" were stratified from their first day of school. Most of them were merely stepping stones for the few actual geniuses.

Thinking of this, the little girl hurriedly introduced herself, "My ability is called ’Xinya,’ that’s what both the students and the teachers call me. Once your child enrolls, I can show them around the campus!"

After these words, the atmosphere in the train car cooled to freezing at a visibly fast rate.

The source of the chilly air was the expressionless Lu Xiang.

The perceptive Song Lan distinctly noticed Lu Xiang’s eyelids twitch several times when she was called "auntie."

If you considered her age, Lu Xiang was actually just a young lady who had graduated less than a year ago. Being affectionately called auntie by a student only a few years younger seemed to have a strong impact on her psyche.

However, being called "uncle" did not seem to affect Song Lan in the slightest.

He was never attached to titles or concerned with meaningless victories and defeats.

Even if you called him Dumb Bird, his state of mind would remain peaceful and undisturbed, without any ripples.

"About that, we’re actually still trying,"

As someone who disliked the cold, and to avoid being affected by the chill Lu Xiang was emitting, Song Lan quickly stepped in to play the peacemaker; and what he said wasn’t a lie, they had indeed tried that morning before leaving the house.

A good peacemaker not only smooths over tensions but also tactfully changes the subject.

Seeing other students in a different car exchanging student cards and engaging in lively discussions, he quickly found a new topic. Looking at the little girl who called herself Xinya, he asked, "I see they are all talking about student cards. You must have registered a Six-Star Chart, haven’t you?"

...

Song Lan’s skill at changing the subject rarely failed him.

The atmosphere in the car grew even colder, as Student Xinya joined Lu Xiang’s ranks, turning into a human-shaped, self-moving air conditioning unit.

However, he sensed a subtle difference between the cold air they were emitting.

Lu Xiang’s chill was the bitter cold of winter, making one feel as if caught in a blizzard.

Xinya, on the other hand, had an autumnal bleakness, making life seem utterly devoid of hope.

"Ah haha, student cards, right."

Xinya took out her student card from her bag with a guilty conscience, and the sorrow and struggle on her face intensified Song Lan’s feeling.

She placed the card on the table as if marching to the scaffold, the red button now seeming like a device capable of destroying the entire world.

Xinya squeezed out a smile, with a glint of tears seemingly flashing across her eyes.

Soon, a Six-Star Chart corresponding to her ability name appeared before the eyes of Song Lan and Lu Xiang:

Overall Evaluation:

Destruction Power: Extremely Low

Rule Efficiency: Extremely Low

Rule Rate: Extremely Low

Coverage: Extremely Low

Growth: Extremely Low

Controllability: Low

If it weren’t for the fact that the Six-Star Chart extended a corner at "Controllability," Song Lan would have thought there was a bug in this student card that prevented the chart from displaying.

At Purple Wisteria Academy, it was rare for students to receive a "high" rating upon admission, but someone with a Six-Star Chart as dismal as Student Xinya was an absolute rarity. Generally, even the worst-performing students had at least one or two ratings that could reach an ordinary level after a few study periods.

And the ability review section explained the origin of this title.

Her abilities could accelerate the growth rate of plants to a certain extent, but this enhancement to plant growth was so insignificant that it required specialized equipment to measure; the naked eye could not discern it at all.

In more straightforward terms used by the students, if Xinya joined your team, it was akin to having brought along an extra water bottle with a single function, and this water bottle could only affect plants.

Based on this formula, the students came up with an astonishing equation:

Xinya < Water Bottle.

After all, carrying a water bottle could serve to quench one’s thirst, something even Xinya lacked the capacity to do.

This equation was affectionately referred to as the "Xinya Inequality" by the students of Purple Wisteria Academy.

The lackluster Six-Star Chart evoked a gloomy meeting within Xinya. At the same time, she experienced a strong sense of guilt for her earlier overenthusiasm because she had approached Lu Xiang and Song Lan with impure motives, mistaking them for Newborns from the start.

Under the condemnation of her conscience, she confessed her ulterior motives to Song Lan and Lu Xiang, "Aunties and uncles, I apologize to you. My intentions weren’t pure; I came to school early actually hoping to deceive Newborns into teaming up with me."

She had to complete the daunting task of forming a team before the Newborns became aware of the "Xinya Inequality," or else she would face the prospect of being a lone individual for the next term, directly preventing her from participating in any extracurricular activities at school.

Xinya admitted that she harbored incorrect thoughts when she guessed that Lu Xiang and Song Lan’s child was a top student of this term. Her passion earlier could be described as "big shot seeking guidance."

"To gain others’ recognition, you need to work hard, not with a servile attitude," Lu Xiang said coldly.

Before the Morning Star’s Academy Cup began, many students faced the predicament Xinya was in. As someone who had been there herself, she reminded Xinya of this.

If she herself accepted her classmates’ opinions, then the identity of being mocked would inevitably follow her throughout her school life.

But none of that was important.

What mattered was, if she hadn’t misheard just now, this little student had called her "auntie" twice.

This was preposterous!

Lu Xiang felt it necessary to emphasize her age once more, "Also, I’m only a few years older than you, so stop calling me auntie."

However, from Xinya’s expression, it seemed her emphasis had the opposite effect.

The young girl widened her eyes again, her expression even describable as horror-stricken.

In that instant, she felt a flood of information rush into her brain.

Although Purple Wisteria Academy had no strict restrictions on the timing of admission, most Newborns each year were usually over seven years old, yet this older sister, who was only a few years her senior, already had a child who had reached the age of admission...!

"I, I got it, sorry!"

Struck by this astonishing news, Xinya was momentarily at a loss for words.

"Why are you apologizing?"

This panicked apology made her eyelid twitch again; on this train ride, she had finally encountered someone even more infuriating than Song Lan.

"I don’t know..."

Xinya, intimidated by Lu Xiang’s gaze, shrank back into her seat, "Anyway, thank you for the trouble!"
