My Pretty Campus Queen-Chapter 758 - 756: A Tense Opening

Shen Yan was overthinking. Chen Tianlong was quite passionate about people and things. If he had his eyes on you, he definitely wouldn’t favor another. But love is love, who could truly be with him for a lifetime?

After saying this, the two of them walked out of the meeting room and headed towards the school gymnasium.

At this time, it was already a sea of people. South Sea No.1 Middle School had over five thousand students, plus some visitors from other schools, community members, and city government leaders, bringing the total number to over six thousand people.

If it weren’t for the fact that this was a ten-thousand-people venue that could accommodate so many people, they might have had to move outside. But with the sun blazing outside, it would have been troublesome. You can’t exactly ask city leaders to stand in the sun, can you?

This was a martial art ring challenge. No matter who it was, as long as the challenger could defeat the ring master, they would be the winner.

These three people had their sequence. In the World High School Student Martial Arts Challenge, ranked third currently was the United States’ Jackie, second was Muay Thai’s Shi Kekuang, and first was Japan’s Zhenzi.

The rules of the competition were that students from South Sea high schools who registered could draw lots to challenge at will. Losers would be directly eliminated. If the third place was defeated, the winner would rest for ten minutes, then continue to fight the second place, and so on.

The final winner would be the champion.

The two of them entered through the backstage, which wasn’t too crowded, and soon arrived at the makeup room.

At this moment, the makeup artist, also a beauty, frowned upon seeing Shen Yan. This person was evidently much prettier than her, and she felt a bit jealous. However, at such a critical moment, she didn’t dare to act rashly.

"Hello, are you the opening host, Shen?" Makeup artist Xiaojie asked deliberately.

"Yes," Shen Yan smiled kindly and replied.

"Oh, why so late? There are only a few minutes left. How am I supposed to do your makeup? Really, no sense of time." Tang Xiaojie complained somewhat angrily.

At this moment, Shen Yan felt a bit awkward, wanting to explain but couldn’t find the words. It was Wu Mengting who spoke up, "Makeup artist sister, you can’t blame Shen for this. The previous opening host had an accident, and she is stepping in at the last moment, so she is running a bit late."

"What does it matter to you, a student? Stop making noise here. You should leave and not disturb me." Tang Xiaojie rolled her eyes at Wu Mengting.

But at this moment, she was also stunned, because the girl she saw was practically a super beauty. Not only was she emitting an unmatched youthfulness, but her facial features were also incredibly exquisite, truly stunning.

At this moment, she felt that even with heavy makeup, she couldn’t compare to this girl’s natural beauty. She was ready to hit her head against a block of tofu and die.

"Oh, I’m sorry, I’ll head out first." Although Wu Mengting was not weak, she was very kind and didn’t want to cause trouble, so she backed out.

As a teacher, Shen Yan had to protect her student, so she was about to speak up when she saw Wu Mengting leaving, so she could only sigh without saying a word.

She knew that Wu Mengting was not afraid of this makeup artist but was being kind. Otherwise, with Chen Tianlong as her boyfriend, being such a powerful person, she wouldn’t have to say anything; Chen Tianlong might even dare to punch the mayor.

Indeed, Chen Tianlong would dare to, but he’d just do it with a masked face.

Soon, the makeup was finished, albeit reluctantly by the makeup artist. Even though Tang Xiaojie did it deliberately without making it pretty, Shen Yan was naturally beautiful, and she was already quite pretty with or without makeup.

"Please note that the martial art competition opening ceremony is about to start. Please find your seats and quiet down." The student council announcer emphasized, also giving Shen Yan, the host, a cue.

"Alright, your makeup is done, hurry to the backstage entrance and get ready."

Tang Xiaojie said blandly. There was nothing left to be jealous of, as South Sea No.1 Middle School was full of beauties, and the student earlier was prettier than her.

"Hmm, thank you." Shen Yan didn’t know if this person was older or younger since she was wearing heavy makeup, and you couldn’t tell her exact age.

"Oh, it’s nothing. Just doing my job for a fee, nothing more." Tang Xiaojie said coldly.

Shen Yan did not delay any longer. Already nervous with time pressing, she hurried to the entrance to wait.

But upon arriving at the entrance, she habitually trembled, taking out a small speech note. Although she had an excellent memory and wouldn’t forget, she worried that she might go blank from nervousness, which would be troublesome.

So she felt it was better to have it ready in hand.

The short five minutes were so hard to endure. During these five minutes, Shen Yan had thoughts of escaping, as stage fright became a reality.

She was extremely nervous. Nearly two minutes before the countdown ended, her forehead had started soaking with sweat, and her face had become somewhat pale.

Shen Yan could feel her little heart pounding, and she couldn’t suppress it, helplessly.

She seemed to see herself being very embarrassed over the next five minutes, to the point where she didn’t even dare to face it.

Just at this moment, a large hand suddenly grabbed Shen Yan’s shoulder. Startled, she turned around to see it was Chen Tianlong. Behind him were his friends and seven other contestants.

"Teacher, go for it! I’m right here behind you, supporting you," Chen Tianlong said sincerely with a smile.

"Yeah, teacher, go for it!"

Yang Xinru and Zhao Lei, who were also from Class Three, were surprised to see Teacher Shen Yan as the host, as they usually saw her shy and reserved in class, rarely interacting with students.

"Hmm, okay."

Seeing her students cheering her on, Shen Yan suddenly found courage again. As a teacher, she couldn’t display such timidity.

Most importantly, she couldn’t let Chen Tianlong feel disappointed.

Everyone knows the power of love is tremendous. Often, you feel scared, but as long as the person you like cheers for you and encourages you, standing behind you, you’ll feel there’s no longer any fear in the world.

"Last ten seconds countdown, let’s all get excited and enjoy the thrilling moment together," the announcer’s voice came again, "1, 2, 3, 4, 5...10, start!"

Accompanied by an impassioned opening song, Shen Yan took a deep breath, listening for the next sound.

"Now, let’s welcome our opening host, the beautiful Shen Yan!"

The announcer was a girl from the student council, who admired Shen Yan greatly, and was thrilled to finally praise her openly. If she didn’t have to maintain an image, she would have loved to shout on the radio, "Teacher Shen Yan, I love you!"

At this moment, Shen Yan felt palpitations, her face beginning to pale as she was about to take the stage.

"Shen Yan, go for it!"

At this critical moment, Chen Tianlong used such a familiar term, intending to cheer for Shen Yan as a good friend.

Upon hearing this, as expected, Shen Yan’s pale face turned rosy, and she had forgotten about her nervousness, replaced by shyness.
