The awkward chat between Bai Xiao and Lu Xun didn't last long.

Because more people soon entered the venue.

Two hours before the ceremony, excited students rushed over one after another. After that, the parents of the students who were equally excited, as well as guests who came from the border of the empire from thousands of miles away, also entered the venue in advance.

When there are too many people, it is not convenient to talk about it. Moreover, as the eldest son of the Lu family, Lu Xun is carrying heavy social tasks. Facing the guests who are constantly entering the venue, he has to force a smile and get up to welcome the guests.

Bai Xiao was still sitting in the same place, meditating and silent. Occasionally, someone came to say hello to him, and he responded seriously according to the etiquette of the southerners, but most of them were just instinctive reactions like knee reflexes and did not take it seriously.

In silence, time passed quickly, as if in a blink of an eye, the ceremony was about to begin and everyone had already taken their seats. At this time, Bai Xiao heard Qingyue trot along the way with a slightly rapid breath, and then sat on his left hand.

"Oh, I'm almost late."

Bai Xiao was about to say something, but heard a light cough on the stage. Zhu Junshen had already walked onto the stage, attracting everyone's attention.

Unlike his gentle and elegant appearance, Zhu Junshen's opening remarks did not have any meticulous rhetoric, and his tone seemed relaxed and casual.

"Good morning, welcome to the 2019 annual opening ceremony of Hongshan College. I am Zhu Junshen, the dean of the college. As the saying goes, everyone can make a ceremony, and any ceremony is inseparable from those who participate. So on behalf of the college, I sincerely thank you for taking the time to participate in this ceremony, especially Grandmaster Ying Ruoying from Baiye City..."

As he said that, Zhu Junshen reached out to the center of the VIP seat on the second floor of the auditorium. Bai Xiao also turned around and saw a woman with white hair as white as snow, wearing a golden magic Taoist dress, sitting upright in the middle of the crowd, her arrogant temperament at a glance.

Next to him, Lu Xun suddenly poked Bai Xiao quietly and whispered: "Princess of the Empire."

However, without Lu Xun reminding him, Bai Xiao also knew that this was the big trouble invited by the emperor's eldest son.

Because just as Bai Xiao looked at her, she turned her eyes and looked at Bai Xiao from a high place. The clear and deep pupils contained a huge weight in the world, which made Bai Xiao feel like he was in a snow mountain hunting ground. Facing the most ferocious beast, his muscles were tense.

The eyes lasted for only a moment, and Bai Xiao quickly turned his eyes, relaxed his body, and let out a light breath.

Qingyue next to her was thoughtful and patted Bai Xiao’s arm. Lu Xun glanced at her and didn’t say anything more.

At the same time, Zhu Junshen also introduced several Apocalypse masters and demonic masters who were present one by one and began a formal speech.

"Every year, I have to stand here, sum up the past and look forward to the future. But to be honest, the content of each year is similar. After all, the ceremony itself is just a routine, so there will be no big difference this year. Although there have been ups and downs before the opening ceremony, such as the Demon Princess, and the gathering of stars, in fact, in my opinion, they are very simple students. No matter how special and talented they are, the college will treat them equally. As the saying goes, there is no difference between teaching. This college adheres to the tradition of running schools for 1,800 years and is asking us to have such a normal mind. Whether it is a tutor or a student, they should keep a calm mind and cherish time..."

The dean's speech was simple and unpretentious, but with his gentle temperament, it made people feel like spring breeze. After the speech, the applause in the auditorium was thunderous.

"Next, it's still a regular part. Please ask the freshman representative Bai Xiao to come on stage to speak." Zhu Junshen said, turning his eyes to Bai Xiao.

Bai Xiao stood up and instantly attracted the attention of everyone present.

In fact, Bai Xiao, who was sitting in the front of the student array, was particularly eye-catching as early as before the ceremony. His story was circulating everywhere inside and outside Hongshan City these days. There were good and bad ones, and of course the most important one was the good. The bombardment of hundreds of millions of silver dollars was enough to soften the most stubborn spectators. From a good direction, Bai Xiao was undoubtedly the most legendary freshman in the 1800-year history of Hongshan Academy.

When he walked onto the stage, he was facing unprecedented pressure. The scrutinized eyes seemed as sharp and picky as his bone spear.

Bai Xiao couldn't help but think that the senior who wrote his autobiography was under such pressure, right? And now, the pressure he has to face is several times higher than that of him.

As Zhu Junshen said, the opening ceremony is just a routine for the college. The guests invited to visit every year are not all interested in listening to the immature imagination of a freshman who has not yet begun his path to practice. Therefore, when most freshmen give speeches, those great masters and old people in the magic path are likely to be distracted.

But now, these demon giants who can kill mortals with their eyes all looked at him, looked at him, and understood him with interest.

The pressure was so heavy that even the audience felt a little suffocated.

Bai Xiao let out a sigh of relief, and such pressure was just right for him to perform.

As the son of the tribal leader, the most talented hunter of the younger generation, Bai Xiao has lived in the attention of everyone since he was a child.

So much so that he is really not used to it without enough attention.

"Hello everyone, I am Bai Xiao, the representative of the freshman. Thank you for giving me such an opportunity, because I do have something to say."

Bai Xiao used a confident and calm attitude to overwhelm the invisible pressure around him in an instant. Those who were expecting him to be nervous, dull, and unspeakable suddenly showed disappointed expressions.

Someone in the crowd said as if he was ridiculed: "Ha, it is really impossible to count on this savage to have the delicate thoughts of civilized people..."

The next moment, I heard Bai Xiao say loudly on the stage: "As you see, I was born in the Snow Mountain Tribe and located outside the territory of civilization, by your standards, I am an absolute savage. I did not change into the magic robe of the newborn, because I also felt like I was a monkey. When I came to the south, my biggest feeling was that I was incompatible. When I arrived at this academy, I felt that I was twice as incompatible. At this moment, as a representative of the newborn, I could clearly feel the doubts and even malice from all directions, and I would like to tell you seriously that I don't care."

In the dumbfounded by countless people, Bai Xiao continued: "I don't care whether I am out of place or how many people like me or how many people hate me. I don't come to please anyone, nor do I come to integrate into it. My purpose is very simple. Find my girlfriend and master the essence of the magic path, that's all."

Just as the audience's emotions began to brew quickly, Bai Xiao said again: "However, for me who is so selfish, Hongshan Academy still gave me a fair exam opportunity, opened the door to me, and even chose me as a representative of the freshman. I sincerely express my gratitude for this generosity and lenientness. I do feel the weight of the four words "teaching but not being apart."

After a pause, Bai Xiao said again: "My tribe also feels it."

"In return, on behalf of my tribe, I will donate 300 million silver dollars to the college to further improve the quality of teaching, and at the same time donate 100 million silver dollars to Hongshan City to improve municipal services. Finally, I will donate 100 million silver dollars to the empire as a symbol of tribal friendship."

Before Bai Xiao finished speaking, the audience was in an uproar.

"Here, I only represent the individual. I hope all students can feel the meaning of the four words "teaching but not being different". Of course, each of us is special, but in the college, we are just similar individuals. We strive to achieve our goals and give our own feedback at the same time. This is our college life."

After saying that, Bai Xiao bowed to the audience and signaled that his speech had ended here.

Indeed, compared with the usual representative speeches, Bai Xiao's speech is short and excessive.
