Chapter 430: Resentment
The academy’s decision was made known to all the students in less than half a day.
The people from the Peony Courtyard could not help but scoff.
It was almost certain that from now on, when these people from the Orchid Courtyard saw them, they had to lower their heads and be obedient.
However, the people from the Orchid Courtyard were in a mess at this moment.
They were feeling shame, anger, upset, dissatisfaction and blame.
The people in Xie Qiao’s class treated her the same as always. They did not hold any resentment toward her, but the people in the other classes were different.
They had been implicated by Xie Qiao for nothing, and now they hated her to death.
Just because she got eight first prizes, she was going to be transferred to the Peony Courtyard. The Peony Courtyard was so good, why not just go there?!
They even caused a big ruckus with the teachers!
Great, she did not have to go to the Peony Courtyard anymore, but she had implicated everyone from the Orchid Courtyard to compete with the Peony Courtyard!
“Xie Qiao, why don’t you go to the Peony Courtyard?! Could it be that the Peony Courtyard has wronged you?!” Some people directly barged in front of Xie Qiao and scolded her.
“If you people from Class Sun want to lower yourselves in the future, that’s your business. Why must you drag us down with you?!” Someone said.
Most of the people who spoke were from Class Kun and Class Moon from the Orchid Courtyard.
The students from Class A, B, C, and D did not come from powerful families, so they did not dare to make a ruckus here.
There were fewer women, but on the men’s side, there were several students from each Orchid Courtyard.
As men, they were embarrassed to insult Xie Qiao directly, but they also felt uneasy. At that moment, there were many people who came to watch the show.
“Why do I have to go to the Peony Courtyard?” Xie Qiao said slowly, “The teachers in the Peony Courtyard are as talented as the teachers in our courtyard, and the courses they teach are no different. What’s the difference where I am?”
“But the people in the Peony Courtyard are all talented! Isn’t that more suitable for you?!” What he meant was that he hoped Xie Qiao would take the initiative to go there herself.
Then, this competition should be avoided, right?
“The people from the Orchid Courtyard aren’t bad either?” Xie Qiao narrowed her eyes, “Could it be that you all feel that you’re not good enough?”
Hearing these words, the people on the opposite side gritted their teeth.
Of course, they were not good enough, but… it would definitely be impossible for them to admit it directly.
“It’s just a big competition. We still have a few months to prepare. The content of the examination would be what the teachers have taught. The people of Orchid Courtyard are neither fools nor idiots. How could we not be able to defeat the Peony Courtyard? Do you want to admit that you are inferior to others for the rest of your life?” Xie Qiao asked again.
Xie Qiao looked at these little girls sympathetically.
She had been schemed against by the academy, so there was nothing she could do.
“Young Lady Xie is right. I think… we can give it a try. The Peony Courtyard has always looked down on us before. If we also look down on ourselves, then we’ve already lowered ourselves to the dust without having to lower our heads,” Fang Muxue stood out.
“To be able to enter the Orchid Courtyard, it proves that we are all extremely outstanding. Why are we afraid of the Peony Courtyard?! Look at those people with their noses up. Are you happy with them? Of course, if you’re happy with their attitude, pretend as if I did not say anything. I believe that you guys wouldn’t feel uncomfortable lowering your heads and bowing to them since you have no problem with their attitude,” Qin Liu spoke too.
“Xie Qiao is also from the Orchid Courtyard. If she could defeat the Peony Courtyard, why can’t we?”
In Xie Qiao’s class, everyone was full of vigor at that moment.
Xie Qiao had already won once, so they had some confidence.
When the other people from the Orchid Courtyard heard that, they could not bring themselves to admit that they were weak.
All of them gritted their teeth, feeling upset and hot-blooded.
Who did not know that the Peony Courtyard looked down on them?! However, was it not because they were afraid that they would not be able to compete with them?!
