Chapter 240 – Setting the School Festival on Fire (Part Four)

Di Qianqian ultimately failed to achieve her wish.

With the Young Emperor watching closely like a tiger, succeeding would have been truly miraculous.

Early the next morning, Ye Yunxi didn’t depart with Di Junxie but went to school early instead.

The performance costumes she had ordered were scheduled to arrive today, and she needed to arrive early for makeup and preparations.

Jun Yao’s School Festival officially began.

The school gate was adorned with lanterns and decorations, with the large characters for “School Festival” painted in vibrant colors. Students bustled about, creating a lively and crowded atmosphere.

After preparing, everyone gathered in the school auditorium.

Students took their seats one after another, eagerly awaiting the start of the performances.

“When is Burial Sky’s performance? I heard Ming Shao is personally participating this time. I’m so looking forward to it!”

“I want to watch Berserker’s performance. I heard it’s a martial arts display—it must be incredibly cool!”

“Why aren’t you watching Hegemon’s? I heard it’s a play this time. Ahhh, it must be amazing!”

“What about Night Phoenix?”

“Night Phoenix? Hah, you still have expectations for Night Phoenix? With the Three Great Societies around, how can a newly established novice group like Night Phoenix compare?”

“Exactly, it would be a miracle if they could!”

“Absolutely impossible. Don’t get your hopes up!”

What kind of good performance could Night Phoenix possibly deliver?

The Three Great Societies have professional guidance—any performance they put on would easily outshine others in an instant!

Amid the chattering, uniform footsteps echoed from outside the door.

The sound was heavy, like military leather boots striking the cement floor—resonant, powerful, and awe-inspiring!

“What’s going on?”

The students all looked toward the entrance curiously.

A group of military academy students in uniforms suddenly appeared at the auditorium entrance.

They were all dressed in pure white uniforms, wearing pure white peaked caps. A pure gold badge featuring an eagle’s wing and a coiled cobra entwined around a scepter adorned the center of their caps—the emblem of Royal Duke!

The students went wild!

“It’s the students from Royal Duke!!”

“Are they here to participate in Jun Yao’s School Festival too??”

“Oh my god, their uniforms are so handsome!!”

“This has never happened before, right? Why are Royal Duke students attending our School Festival this time?!”

This is too exciting!!

Although Jun Yao is an affiliate school of Royal Duke, the two hardly interact. For Royal Duke personnel to attend a Jun Yao event like this is absolutely unprecedented!!

The students grew excited, stealing glances and chattering in low, thrilled voices.

However, the Royal Duke students appeared far more disciplined. They marched in an orderly formation, entering the auditorium in silence and taking their reserved seats on the second floor one by one.

Truly befitting a university renowned for its militarized discipline!

Following them were several men in military attire.

The students were going crazy!!

First, the strictly disciplined students from the elite academy, and now students in military uniforms?!

At this point, all the students stood up collectively, their gazes burning as they stared at these individuals.

Di Wei adjusted his peaked cap, his stern gaze sweeping across the entire hall. The students were momentarily stunned by the cold severity in the old master’s eyes and instinctively straightened their postures.

Di Junxie’s cool gaze lazily scanned the room. Not spotting his wife, he turned away bored and headed directly to the second floor.

As soon as they ascended, all the Royal Duke students stood up in unison, paying their respects with attentive gazes!

Their orderly, well-trained demeanor drew admiration and longing from the students.

“Oh my god, these are Royal Duke students? So impressive!”

“I must get into Royal Duke! I want to be as impressive as them!””Me too!”

The students were completely exhilarated, with even the presidents of the Big Three Clubs gathering together in a huddle, whispering among themselves.

“Ming Er Shao, what is the Royal Duke’s people here for?”
