Chapter 2052: Principal Gu Is Zhizhi’s Paternal Cousin Uncle
Compared to Gu Yuluo and the others, Gu Mingyuan wasn’t too surprised, just looked Su Yunling up and down, and finally nodded at him with a not-so-pleasant expression.
Su Yunling greeted him politely, "Uncle Gu."
Gu Mingyuan: "..."
Humph! Who’s your uncle?
Though feeling disdain in his heart, he still maintained a sullen face and nodded, then said to Gu Zhiqi, "Alright, alright, don’t waste time, go in quickly, your parents have been talking about you for a while, they must be anxious by now."
"Keep an eye on the situation in Xia Country and the Sea City Gu Family for me, contact me immediately if there’s a problem."
Gu Mingyuan waved his hand, "Got it, got it, how many times do you need to say it."
Finally, Gu Zhiqi led Su Yunling, Tang Yichen, and several others entering the Central Continent Academy to the room where the Teleportation Formation was located.
"Gu Xiaoxi, is Principal Gu your...real uncle?"
Just now, wasn’t that what Gu Zhiqi meant?
As soon as Tang Yichen asked, the others turned to look at Gu Zhiqi.
Gu Zhiqi: "Paternal uncle."
Tang Yichen: "Real paternal uncle?"
Gu Zhiqi nodded.
Tang Yichen: "..."
Could he also have a paternal uncle who’s a principal at Central Continent Academy?
Lu Xingzhe and a few others roughly understood why Gu Zhiqi managed to get an admission notice through the back door.
Since Central Continent Academy can recruit for Nine Stars Academy, it must have intricate connections with Nine Stars Academy.
Getting an admission notice shouldn’t be difficult.
After entering the Teleportation Room, they were at the identity verification area.
Since it was Nine Stars Academy’s enrollment day, and also when it opened once a month, many people wanting to enter the teleportation formation were already in a long queue.
Gu Zhiqi didn’t take them to line up but went directly to the verification center.
"Hey! Get in line."
Seeing Gu Zhiqi and the others, someone in the queue shouted at them loudly.
"Yeah, why aren’t you lining up?"
"Everyone else is lining up, why aren’t you?"
Hearing the voices from the crowd, Tang Yichen glanced at Gu Zhiqi, "Gu Xiaoxi?"
Gu Zhiqi simply said, "Just follow."
Then, they directly went to the verification area.
The verification personnel, seeing they didn’t line up, seemed to guess their identity wasn’t simple, immediately asked politely, "Do you have a hand token?"
Gu Zhiqi nodded, then took out a token and showed it to the verification staff.
After the verification personnel looked at the token, their expression changed slightly, and then immediately allowed them to enter, "Please, come in."
Gu Zhiqi led the others inside.
Over there, the noisy crowd suddenly quieted down.
A girl near the verification area heard the previous conversation clearly and saw the sudden change in the verification staff’s expression, so she curiously asked the staff, "Excuse me, who was that just now?"
The staff replied with a cold face, "That’s not something you should ask."
Hearing this, the girl awkwardly shut up.
Others who heard this interaction also quelled their curiosity, and those who were clamoring for Gu Zhiqi and the others to line up no longer dared to say anything.
The queue began to buzz with whispers.
"Hey, do you know why they could go straight in?"
"What else could it be, they must have a significant background."
"I saw that leading girl take out a hand token, that’s not something an ordinary person can possess."
"From what I know, only people from the City Lord’s Mansion or those at the dean level or above from Nine Stars Academy are qualified to have a hand token."
"Hiss~ that girl."
"For the first time, I feel such a big shot is so close to me."
