Horror High School

Chapter 3 "Teaching Assistant"

She came with a bang, and she left silently, without taking a single cloud with her...

The boy, who had a thing for queens, sighed like a lovesick fan.

Before everyone could recover from the shock of the Flame Queen, the three of them entered the classroom one after another.

There were three people: two men and one woman. The woman's appearance was average, but she had an excellent figure, the kind that grows on you. She wore a very appropriate casual sportswear outfit and stood in the middle. Two men, one tall and one short, stood on either side of her. The man on the left was nearly two meters tall, with broad shoulders and a wide back, resembling a polar bear, and had very bright eyes. The man on the right was also not short, about 170 centimeters tall, rather thin, with a pale face like a typical nerdy guy, and unkempt.

"These three people are the teaching assistants?"

Everyone was puzzled.

The woman in the middle answered everyone's questions. She stepped forward and said, "Let me introduce myself. My name is Ji Wen, and I am one of your teaching assistants."

"Bear King!"

His name reflects his personality; he possesses the domineering presence of a bear.

"Hello everyone, my name is Zhai Nan (**)."

A murmur of discussion gradually broke out below, making the originally quiet classroom somewhat noisy.

Xiong Ba coldly swept his gaze across the classroom, letting out a sneer. "You'd better shut your mouths, or I'll tear them to shreds with my bare hands." He licked his lips, seemingly impatient. "As a 'teaching assistant,' I can't kill you, but I can punish you if you ask me... and I won't have to pay for your medical expenses. Hehe."

"Tch! Just a lowly teaching assistant, yet you dare to spout such nonsense. Hmph, even if the president of your so-called university came, he would have to respectfully call me Young Master Xiao. Who do you think you are?" A boy who seemed to have been suppressing his anger for a long time slammed his fist on the table and stood up, pointing angrily at Xiong Ba.

The three teaching assistants exchanged glances after hearing this.

Their expressions were quite strange, a mixture of pity, amusement, anger, and schadenfreude.

Yin Kuang and Li Shuangmu, who were sitting at the table, looked at each other suspiciously, full of doubts.

"How about it?" Xiong Ba asked the nerdy guy, completely ignoring the boastful boy.

The nerdy guy shrugged. "Whatever."

Ji Wen said, "Just don't kill him."

Xiong Ba chuckled, revealing a mouthful of gleaming white teeth. Then he walked towards the arrogant boy.

Just then, Yin Kuang suddenly smelled a very strong odor… it was the smell of blood. He had slaughtered pigs for people before, and he was very familiar with the smell of blood. But… why did he smell such a strong odor of blood on that Xiong Ba?!

Not only him, but many people's faces changed, becoming strange, fearful, disgusted, and pale.

"Danger!" Li Shuangmu exclaimed.

The arrogant boy's expression changed. "You... what are you going to do?"

Xiong Ba chuckled, "It's nothing, just giving you an unforgettable lesson." Then, he stretched out his large, fan-like hand and lifted the arrogant man up like a chick. "Kid, remember to be polite to your senior in the future. Otherwise, I'll kill you. Judging by your appearance, you probably won't live more than fifty or sixty years. I'll kill you six times and see if you survive! Got it."

Then, he grabbed the arrogant man's arm. "Heh heh, enjoy this pain. Hopefully, you won't become addicted to it..."

The next moment, the arrogant man let out a shrill scream!

His hands were casually torn off by Xiong Ba, blood splattering everywhere! The two severed arms were thrown on the ground like trash by Xiong Ba.

"ah!!"

It wasn't just the arrogant boy who screamed; everyone in the class did too.

"Murder!!"

"Call the police... call the police quickly..."

"Blood, blood!"

Everyone looked at Xiong Ba with fear and dread. Some were even so frightened that they tried to rush out of the classroom, but the classroom door wouldn't open no matter how hard they tried. Some were even so scared that they lost control of their bladder and bowels.

At that moment, the Flame Queen's words echoed in everyone's minds, "You'd better be more polite to your teaching assistants."

This isn't a teaching assistant; this is a ruthless killer!

"I...I want to drop out of school! I don't want to study anymore. Mom...I want my mom..." the terrified girl cried out, losing control of her bladder and bowels.

"Tsk!" Xiong Ba snorted coldly. "Quiet down, all of you! Screw you! You're so annoying. Get back to your seats. Right now!!"

No one dared to disobey him anymore. After experiencing his cruelty and ruthlessness, everyone became as obedient as lambs.

"Kid, if you yell again, I'll kill you!"

The arrogant man, now with both arms severed, could no longer be arrogant. Although the pain of losing his arms almost drove him to the brink of collapse, his fear of Xiong Ba overcame everything, and he obediently shut his mouth.

"Don't worry, if you have money on you, just silently chant 'heal' and it will reconnect you. Of course, if you don't have any money, then you're done for. You won't die, but you'll be in pain for a while."

"I...have...healing! Healing, please!!"

The arrogant man screamed hysterically. Suddenly, he felt a strange voice in his mind: "Body scan in progress... F-level injury... both arms broken... estimated cost 100 'study points'... Detected that student Xiao Zhang is carrying 10,000 yuan in banknotes, equivalent to 100 study points... 'Rookie Student' title effect activated... treatment cost halved... treatment in progress..."

Then, the still-shaken crowd witnessed a scene that left them speechless: the two severed arms suddenly flew up and automatically attached to the man's shoulders, and the blood on the ground seemed to flood into the severed arms—a sight that resembled watching a video of water being splashed in rewind.

"Don't be surprised no matter what unbelievable things you see."

The Flame Queen's image once again flashed through everyone's minds.

"f**k! What the hell is this place?!" The girl with a thing for the queen couldn't help but growl in a low voice.

Ji Wen glanced at everyone's reactions and said, "Alright, is it finally completely quiet now?"

No one dared to speak anymore.

"Now, take out your acceptance letters. Silently imagine them turning into a watch, a ring, glasses, or something else. Ideally, something small and easy to carry. Do it!"

Everyone obeyed his orders.

Yin Kuang stared blankly at the admission letter from Beixia University in his hand, and could only sigh, "A watch."

With a "bang," the admission notice suddenly burst into flames. The next moment, the flames went out, and an ordinary electronic watch appeared on Yin Kuang's wrist.

Looking at other people, it was the same; some wore watches, some wore rings, some wore bracelets, and one person even had an iPhone.

"Then, pick up the transformed object and silently recite 'personal attribute'."

Everyone did as instructed mechanically. Then, the entire classroom fell into a deathly silence.

Everyone's eyes were fixed ahead, but the problem was that there was nothing there at all. However, they stared intently, their expressions constantly changing.

"Would you like to see their profile information?" the otaku suddenly asked with a grin.

"Not interested," Ji Wen replied simply.

Xiong Badao said, "Fine... I know what you're trying to do. But these are things we shouldn't get involved in... otherwise the 'seniors' will be unhappy if they find out."

"Alright then... Hehe, being a teaching assistant is really great. I bet our teaching assistants were just like us last year. Back then, they were all so arrogant. I remember that lone wolf even slapped me. Too bad, before I could get revenge, he had already exhausted his 'lifespan' and died. That was too easy for him..."

Xiong Ba smiled and said, "That's true. I didn't expect the title of 'Teaching Assistant' to be so powerful. You don't lose 'lifespan' when you die, and you can even get 50 credits. Plus, the 'first-year' courses are so simple. Maybe you can get a lot of benefits. The only trouble is that when a new student dies, you lose 1 point of 'Comprehensive Evaluation' and 0.5 points of 'F-level Evaluation'."

Ji Wen sighed, "Yeah, we only get 2 points of basic 'comprehensive assessment' for every 'scenario' we experience. That means if two people die, we've wasted a 'scenario'. Getting the 'level assessment' is even harder. It's not something you can just fool. In 'university,' there's no such thing as a free lunch. Let's just be good babysitters for these newbies."
