47 Chapter 47: Celebrity

"...Where do you think you're going?"

Yun Hao stared at the man… woman in front of him. It was quite hard to tell what she was at first, but Yun Hao finally figured it out as he heard her voice directly. Her muscles, which bulged up and were even bigger than Yun Hao's head, did not help. She was even more muscular than Yun Hao, who was more on the lean side.

"Um…" Yun Hao did not really know how to respond as the unusually muscular woman blocked his path, so he could only turn his head back towards Song Jian.

"What are you doing, Pan Jing?" Song Jian furrowed her eyebrows as she stepped in front of Yun Hao, the tone of her voice completely different from when she was talking with Yun Hao.

"He is not a student of the Academy, you have no reason to hold him here."

"Oh my, as cold as always, Song Jian," the woman embraced herself as she shivered, looking towards Yun Hao… seductively. Afterward, she once again turned her eyes towards Song Jian, her eyebrows slightly furrowed,

"Even if you are already of a higher level than me, I still am a teacher in this Academy, you know," Pan Jing then clicked her tongue several times as she wagged her finger, "And you are in my class. And as they say, when in Italia…"

Pan Jing did not even finish her words as she slowly walked back to the platforms at the center of the classroom, which was honestly more like an indoor stadium if anything.

"Quick, let's go," Song Jian urged Yun Hao to leave the classroom in haste. But before they could even move an inch from their position, the lights suddenly went out. But after just a second, a spotlight was lit up… pointed straight towards Yun Hao.

"..." Yun Hao could not help but slightly cover his eyes as the light completely drowned his vision. At first, when Huang Yi invited her to enroll at the school, he refused without even thinking about it. He thought that it was just going to be similar to Tsinghai Highschool, and he had already had enough of that life. But as soon as he entered through the gates, he was quickly proven otherwise.

Just what kind of school was this?

"Ladies and gentlemen!"

Another light emerged, pointed at the very center of the hall. In the middle of the four platforms, stood a tall pedestal where Pan Jing was now standing, her waist wiggling with her every word.

"We have a very special guest with us that some of you may know!"

"No… it's locked!" Song Jian truly wanted to leave the class. But alas, the door had already been barred. Pan Jing's earlier words about her being in charge weren't just a figure of speech or intimidation-- it was a fact.

The teacher of the class had total control of the classroom, and if you're not at least at the Grandmaster rank, then forget even leaving a dent on the walls of the Academy. "This is harassment, Pan Jing!"

"And look at that, you are even lucky enough to hear the voice of none other than the Academy's pride!" Another light lit up as it pointed towards Song Jian, and as soon as it happened, all the noise and loud whispers of the other students instantly stopped.

"But this isn't about our local ice goddess," the light that pointed towards Song Jian was quickly turned off, "This is about him, Yun Hao!"

As soon as Yun Hao's name was called, the murmurs that have previously already died down once again echoed throughout the stadium.

"Did Teach just say Yun Hao?"

"Yun Hao?"

"Isn't he the one dating Madame Hannah?"

"He's the one on that viral video!"

"Wow, he's hot."

"He was a student of the Academy? Since when?"

"Bro, we would have known if he was."

"Why is he here then?"

Although the stadium was exaggeratingly big for the number of students it had, the students' whispers were still loud enough to echo throughout the whole room. Yun Hao, who was literally the center of everyone's attention, could not help but raise his hand and wave awkwardly.

It had been a while since the last time he was put into a spot like this. He wasn't really in it for fame when he became a boxer, but still, the feeling of being in the spotlight… he didn't dislike it.

"Oh my god, I am so sorry for this," Song Jian could not help but cover her face in embarrassment as she approached Yun Hao, "If I knew she was going to be the one handling this class, I wouldn't have even let you go near the building."

This was supposed to be their date, and now, it was ruined.

"...It's fine," Yun Hao chuckled as he gently held Song Jian's arm, "Come on, let's leave if you're uncomfortable."

"We can't," Song Jian looked at her arm endearingly before shaking her head.

"...What do you me--"

"Why don't you come down here and say a few words? It isn't every day that we are visited by a celebrity!"

"!!!"

Before Yun Hao could finish his words, the bleacher he was standing on suddenly moved downwards, as if he was standing on an escalator… and since when did he become a celebrity?

"Whatever she wants you to do, don't do it, okay!?" Song Jian wanted to run towards the descending Yun Hao, but an invisible barrier seemed to be blocking her path, "Pan Jing… Pan Jing hates Liu Hannah!"

"...Fuck," Yun Hao could only curse as he slowly descended towards the center of the stadium. Ever since Liu Hannah uploaded the picture of them together, it has brought him nothing but trouble. First, it was the altercation with that random man in the Thousand Lanterns…

...and now this? Should he make a public statement that he wasn't dating her? He hasn't even seen or contacted her ever since the Immersion, and she was still having this much impact on his life.

Yun Hao wanted to move away, but also found himself trapped in some kind of invisible barrier. Once again, Yun Hao could not help but wonder just what kind of school this place was.

As soon as he reached the ground, the lights of the stadium were once again fully opened. Yun Hao could finally see all the other students staring at him, their eyes filled with curiosity. But the one that Yun Hao was focused on was the woman in the center of the stadium, who was currently looking down at him from her pedestal.

Just what exactly did this crazy woman want from her?

Pan Jing then suddenly jumped from her pedestal, landing right in front of the severely confused Yun Hao.

"I don't get it, just what exactly do you men see in Liu Hannah that I don't have?"

"...What?"

Yun Hao could not help but squint his eyes as he heard Pan Jing muttering. But afterward, Pan Jing clapped her hands, causing Yun Hao to slightly flinch from the sudden shockwave.

"Mr. Yun Hao here is a man that would someday achieve wonders! A potential that none of you could ever hope to achieve!"

"What--"

"Do any of you want to see him in action!?"

As soon as Pan Jing said that, the howls and cheers of the students quickly filled the entire stadium. But now, Yun Hao finally got what Pan Jing wanted to do-- she wanted to humiliate him just because she thought he was dating Liu Hannah.

"I think there's been a misunderstand--"

Before Yun Hao could even finish his sentence, Pan Jing's rock-hard hands grabbed his shoulder. And before he could even do anything, he felt his whole vision shift as he was thrown straight towards one of the platforms.

Yun Hao quickly rotated his body, allowing him to land gracefully on that platform. And as soon as he raised his head, Pan Jing was already climbing her way to the platform.

"...So that's how it is going to be?" Yun Hao let out a long and deep sigh.

...He was probably fucked.
