Cute Brother Badass Family Protector

Chapter 148: Shamelessness

As he thought about what he had just heard, someone said, “At least it doesn't involve the History Department. If the same thing happened in our majors, I would also be angry. If first grade students can do it, why can't we do the same?”

“My guess is that students have impressive family backgrounds.” A girl shook her head to show her disapproval. He looked a bit envious. “It couldn't possibly be based on merit, right?”

Based achievement?

He doesn't believe.

Only geniuses among geniuses were qualified enough to join Professor Gu's research team.

Even the students who were part of the History Department realized how challenging Professor Gu's research was.

Moreover, the workload is quite heavy.

Although there was a lot of work to be done, they did not accept people carelessly.

They have very high standards.

Only students that Professor Gu liked were allowed to join. He is a mentor to every member of the team.

They should have a good understanding of the subject at hand.

Tan Mo thought, I joined based on my achievements.

You all have no idea what talent means.

You don't even know that there's a genius in your class.

Tan Mo nagged at himself. Then he picked up his bag and walked to class.

The classroom suddenly became silent as an unknown face entered the room.

Everyone glanced towards Tan Mo. They seem very unfriendly.

“Student colleague, you have entered the wrong class.” A boy sitting by the door spoke up.

He glanced at all the other students. Their eyes were all fixed on Tan Mo.

Their eyes looked a bit unfriendly.

Some were surprised, while others seemed doubtful.

Their eyes were not the only thing that betrayed their emotions. They were clearly written on their faces: What is this person doing here?

Some people are even more outspoken. They reacted as if Tan Mo was an invader who had occupied their territory. They seem very hostile.

There were other students who seemed quite indifferent about this entire situation. Since he entered the wrong room, he would leave as soon as possible.

He had just adapted to Professor Gu's team and was friends there.

Now that Tan Mo had suddenly walked into such an environment, he felt a little stunned. He looks so out of place here.

“Isn't this Professor Tang's class? A module in the Four Emperor Treasuries?” Tan Mo was sure he was in the right place.

He is a genius. How did he get into the wrong room?

However, he decided to pretend not to know and ask them.

“Ya.” A girl nodded her head. “But this class has reached its maximum capacity. All students here have signed up.”

Does he still insist on canceling this lecture?

If that's the case, are the rules still necessary?

Tan Mo pretended not to see the wrinkles and conflicting expressions on their faces.

He just nodded his head and smiled. “I'm here to listen.”

“Listening?” The boy sitting by the door was very unhappy. “Professor Tang's class has a limit on the number of students who can enroll.”

“Indeed. Can't you see? There are only 20 tables in the classroom,” someone added their two cents.

Tan Mo looked around the room. It's true, the room was crowded.

So maybe he doesn't need to attend this class?

“Yeah. 20 seats in this space are well worth it, and only the top 20 students are allowed to earn a spot. It's not as simple as registering and getting a place, nor is it based on who comes first, served first.”

The girl who spoke looked extremely displeased as she spoke. “It is not easy for us to get a place here, and we are here just based on our ability. Now you're telling us that you're here to listen? Then why does that rule exist?”

How shameless. He's hit the class.

The girl did not directly call Tan Mo shameless.

But he clearly implied this.

Who can be happy about this?

“It's true.” Others murmured to themselves. “If everyone did this, would there be any meaning in this class again? Everyone can break the rules. If they want to attend this class, they just sit down.”

Everyone present had the same opinion.

All 20 of them had earned spots based solely on merit. Professor Tang would give them special attention since this was a small class.

But most importantly, this is an opportunity.

It was an opportunity to attract Professor Tang's attention.

If they performed very well and if they were outstanding enough, they could attract Professor Tang's attention.

As luck?

Everyone is the best student, and they depend on their achievements to achieve something.

It is true that they believe in luck.

However, such an opportunity required pure merit. They cannot rely on luck.

They have to work hard. They have to fight for a place.

And, now, in the end, someone bumped into their class.

This student never fought for anything, nor did he work for it. He was like a leech that decided to eavesdrop.

Who would accept this?

“Sure, you can attend this class. Work harder next time and present based on achievements.” Someone shouted harshly.

In this class, there were no male or female students who showed any elegance to Tan Mo. Even though she was beautiful and young, no one showed mercy to her.

Tan Mo sneered at himself. “Ha, ha, ha, do you think I came to this class voluntarily?”

Wu Xiaoye hasn't even told them?

Why is he so unreliable?

Compared to Wu Xiaoye, Tan Mo realized that Wang Yuemu was completely reliable.

Even before he entered the research room, Wang Yuemu had already explained his abilities to the other seniors before.

Even before he showed proof of his ability, everyone treated him with respect and kindness even though they might have some doubts.

It was completely different from the situation he was in at the moment.

However, Tan Mo completely misunderstood Wu Xiaoye.

Wu Xiaoye honestly never expected this result.

He just sat down, what's wrong with that?

Everyone attends the same lessons and one additional person will not hinder the other in any way.

Moreover, isn't it good to have such a thirst for knowledge?

Everyone should be encouraged by such an enthusiastic learning attitude.

Wu Xiaoye is Professor Tang's personal mentee. It's been a long time since he became part of a college program.

As a valuable asset, he could not relate the longing of these juniors for Professor Tang's attention.

Actually, Wu Xiaoye had done the same as Wang Yuemu. He had already told the others in the research team about Tan Mo.

Currently, Tan Mo had yet to show his ability. However, he had already explained to the members and told them to see for themselves that he did not say empty words.

Moreover, Professor Tang was good at reading people.

Wu Xiaoye really did not expect his junior to behave like this.

“I'm sorry, I never expected my senior to oppose someone listening,” Tan Mo said. “I'll just go.”

Huge!

That means one lesson to follow.

It wasn't his fault. These people don't want him to sit down.

He's been following instructions.

“Senior?” Someone reacted. “You only in the first year?”

When they heard this, the entire class exploded.

“Why does a one year student violate this lesson?”

“Are you trying to attract attention?”

“Only first year? Impressive!”

“Junior, you need to go and finish your first year syllabus well first!”

The kindness!

They initially assumed that he was a fellow second-year student competing for a spot.

Even though he was acting shameless, at least he was still their classmate.

But now he's saying that he's a freshman?

A freshman who only takes a few first-year classes is now competing to attend a second-year class.

Although this little girl looked very innocent, they knew that she harbored great ambitions.

He's only been a year. But he wanted to attract Professor Tang's attention.
