The teaching building for the Martial Arts Department was located in the middle of the campus, its grounds significantly larger than those of other departments, clearly indicating the importance Black Gold Academy placed on Martial Arts. Upon reaching the entrance of the Martial Arts Department, Han Mo went to the faculty office first, as there were many matters to coordinate for classes shared between the two departments. Bai Xi, meanwhile, headed to the classroom alone.
However, the gender ratio in the Martial Arts Department was severely imbalanced, causing Bai Xi to attract countless stares and whispers the moment she entered.
"Who is this?"
"You're asking me? How would I know?"
"A new junior student?"
"You must be dreaming. Aren't all the girls in our Martial Arts Department dark-skinned, rough-skinned, broad-shouldered, and sturdy like you and me? Such a slender, fair-skinned young lady is most likely looking for a girlfriend."
"That's true. Although ninety percent of our department are men, the men in our department have always been sought after."
"Yeah, there isn't a single person in our department who doesn't have abs and pectoral muscles, and our stamina is top-notch. Those bald, pot-bellied guys can't compare to us."
"Right, right."
"Hmph, I even feel like a girl of this caliber isn't good enough for me?"
"Right, you're absolutely right."
Despite their words, their eyes followed Bai Xi, as if trying to pull her in with their gaze.
Bai Xi's senses were extremely keen, and she could naturally hear these conversations. However, such voices could not stir any emotion within her.
Just as those men were exaggerating their own virtues and belittling Bai Xi completely, a voice suddenly rang out: "So, being so excellent, so sought after, and so unattainable, have any of you found a girlfriend?"
As soon as these words were spoken, the faces of those young men instantly changed from red to pale. Then, they all looked towards the source of the voice and shouted, "Who the hell—"
Bai Xi said lightly, "Dinosaurs were large, but they still went extinct."
A hint of admiration appeared in Jiang Wei's eyes: "Ah, you have personality, aspirations, and a future. Alright, for that reason alone, I'll cover for you."
Bai Xi looked at her earnestly and said slowly, "Thank you."
In fact, the greatest achievement for the Martial Arts Department of Black Gold Academy was entering the Dark Division and becoming its leader. Therefore, the Dark Division had always been supporting the Martial Arts Department of Black Gold Academy.
Now, Jiang Wei said she would cover for her? This feeling... was very subtle.
Hearing her say this, Jiang Wei felt pleased.
When people extend kindness, they don't always expect an equivalent return. Often, knowing that their goodwill has been acknowledged with a simple "thank you" can make someone feel comfortable.
"Right, which class are you in? I'll escort you there and, by the way, give them a stern warning. Those young boys in your class will definitely not dare to deliberately take advantage of you during training when they see me."
This question stumped Bai Xi.
When Principal Wei had given out the student cards earlier, he had mentioned her dormitory, but he hadn't told her which class she was in within the Martial Arts Department. Therefore, she genuinely did not know which class she belonged to.
