Gatekeeper of Myriad Worlds Chapter 218

After a dozen minutes.

Yang Yingzhen, the freshman guide at Xirang High School, rushed to the community police station in her pajamas, with dark circles under her eyes, to pick up two students who had been out late staying at a hotel.

When she learned that the two were discovered by the police because they were complained about for making too much noise in the hotel, Yang Yingzhen almost passed out.

“Since you’re like this, you must have done that too.”

She was so angry that she spoke without thinking.

The two teenagers looked at each other.

Shen Ye stood in front of Nangong Sirui, chest out, head held high, and said in a deep voice:

“Teacher, we are innocent.”

Yang Yingzhen almost passed out again when she saw his posture.

Of course.

It was indeed a misunderstanding.

There were training records from the martial arts field, and surveillance footage from the cameras along the way.

The whole story was quickly clarified.

The truth came out.

Yang Yingzhen finally breathed a sigh of relief and led the two back to school.

However.

We say.

There is a truth in the human world—

Such gossip can never be kept secret at school.

The truth quickly turns into bizarre stories meant to attract attention as it spreads.

The next morning.

Early morning.

Large lecture hall.

—A total of 136 freshmen, packed to the brim.

This didn’t look like a high school class, but more like a college lecture.

The first class was Mr. Dong’s history class.

The teacher hadn’t entered the classroom yet.

The students had already sat down according to the nameplates on their desks and were excitedly chatting, exchanging campus news from the past few days.

When Shen Ye and Nangong Sirui walked into the classroom door, all sounds ceased.

The classroom suddenly became silent.

You could hear a pin drop.

“Hey, Shen Ye.”

Xiao Mengyu’s voice echoed in the classroom:

“What happened last night? I heard that Teacher Yang went to the community police station in the middle of the night to pick you up.”

Shen Ye met the girl’s gaze.

This girl…

Asking this publicly was giving him a chance to clarify the situation publicly and dispel the rumors.

“I was practicing skills in the martial arts field last night until past two in the morning.”

“I worried about disturbing this guy’s sleep if I returned to the dorm.”

“So I went out to get a room.”

“Who knew this guy kept watching me, wanting to see the results of my training.”

“We had a fight, which led to a report from other guests at the hotel.”

“—That’s how it was.”

Shen Ye finished speaking in a relaxed tone.

The classroom remained silent.

Some believed, some disbelieved, some believed and then disbelieved, and some disbelieved and then believed.

Xiao Mengyu saw it all, thought for a moment, and asked:

“So, who won?”

—This topic immediately caught everyone’s attention.

Nangong Sirui, the first place on the ‘New Talent List’ in the previous exam!

Shen Ye, a true disciple of Huntian Gate!

Who was stronger?

Shen Ye looked at Xiao Mengyu, secretly praising her intelligence.

It’s said that rumors are easily spread, but dispelling them is hard work—

The most effective way to deal with gossip isn’t to try to eliminate it.

Instead, it’s to overshadow it with another, more interesting piece of gossip.

No one cared about them staying out all night anymore.

Everyone was curious—

These two had a “duel” outside of school, who won?

Who was truly the best?

“The space was limited, we just had a verbal sparring match, comparing moves, so no real winner could be determined.”

Nangong Sirui said coldly.

Everyone was disappointed.

Shen Ye walked to his seat, only to see a set of ancient clothing on the desk.

“You need to put it on before class.”

Xiao Mengyu reminded him.

The whole class was wearing ancient clothing.

Shen Ye and Nangong Sirui had no choice but to go to the restroom to change their clothes.

A few more minutes passed.

The class bell rang.

Everyone quieted down, sat up straight, and waited for the teacher to enter the classroom.

Teacher Dong, who taught history, was not to be trifled with!

If they made a mistake and he put them in a coffin and buried them underground, how terrifying would that be!

Everyone waited for a while.

A mechanical whirring sound suddenly came from behind the blackboard.

Immediately after.

The blackboard retracted to both sides, and a coffin rose from underground, carried by a conveyor belt to the podium.

The blackboard closed again.

The room was silent.

For a moment, everyone didn’t know how to face such a teacher.

The main thing was that you couldn’t see him!

“Everyone stand up.” Zhang Xiaoyi suddenly shouted hysterically.

Everyone hastily stood up and said in unison:

“Hello, teacher!”

“Hello, students.” Teacher Dong’s voice came from inside the coffin.

“Sit down.” Zhang Xiaoyi shouted again.

Everyone sat down.

Teacher Dong spoke again: “This student is called Zhang Xiaoyi, right? Good, you have good judgment. From now on, you’ll be the class monitor.”

“Thank you, teacher!” Zhang Xiaoyi quickly stood up and bowed.

“Hmm, do a good job. Later, I’ll take you to guard the Ten Thousand Corpse Cave—”

“The class monitor of each batch of students is responsible for maintaining the first level of the Ten Thousand Corpse Cave to ensure that no teaching corpses escape.”

The latest address of 83 Chinese network

Teacher Dong said in a tone that implied, “This is your reward.”

“Thank you, teacher.”

Zhang Xiaoyi’s smile was uglier than a cry.

All the students buried their heads, not saying a word.

If initially some people were indignant and wanted to find an opportunity to deal with Zhang Xiaoyi, at this moment, everyone felt a sense of balance.

The Ten Thousand Corpse Cave.

Buddy, listen to that name.

And then listen to the phrase, “ensure that no teaching corpses escape.”

Ah, yes, yes, yes!

You are our class monitor!

This task is all yours!

“Alright, the curriculum this semester has changed a bit. Originally, we were going to talk about the origin of several unearthed cultural relics and their historical significance…”

“According to the requirements of the world government and the school, we’re starting a new lesson today.”

“Students, look at this vessel.”

Along with Teacher Dong’s words, a strangely shaped object appeared on the podium.

It was a porcelain sculpture.

Nine snakes intertwined, forming a common body.

Their heads, however, looked in all directions.

Each snake head had a single vertical pupil.

Shen Ye had been feeling a bit drowsy, but as soon as this porcelain sculpture was brought out, he immediately perked up.

—Isn’t this the evil god’s phantom behind Song Qingyun?

So, such concrete entities had already existed in history?

Not just him.

As soon as this strange porcelain sculpture appeared, all the students held their breath, staring at it intently.

“Hmph, you can’t even handle this?”

Teacher Dong snorted coldly.

Everyone immediately felt a great relief, let out a long sigh, and shifted their gaze from the porcelain sculpture.

“Teacher, this porcelain sculpture is so eerie!” Guo Yunye shouted out in fright.

“These are the nine evil gods that appeared in history, each one of them, in their respective eras, caused countless people to lose their lives, and even their souls.”

“—It sounds a bit like harvesting leeks, but each incident almost destroyed human civilization.”

As Teacher Dong spoke, the porcelain sculpture was suddenly put away and disappeared.

Only then did everyone realize that the temperature in the classroom seemed to have dropped by several degrees.

As the porcelain sculpture disappeared, the temperature slowly rose again.

“What is their purpose?”

Xiao Mengyu asked.

“I don’t know—remember, you have to fill in ‘I don’t know’ in the exam to get points.” Teacher Dong said.

Seeing that the students were a bit confused, Teacher Dong added a few more sentences:

“It is arrogant of you, with your short and ordinary thinking, to try to understand the purpose of the evil gods’ actions throughout endless ages.”

“Only when you become one of the rare strong ones will you be qualified to answer this question.”

“Alright!”

“In this class, I’ll take everyone to the era when the first evil god appeared.”

“I hope you cherish this opportunity!”

“This ‘anomaly’ is rarely used as a teaching case for students!”

“You need to take notes, and there will be homework after class.”

As Teacher Dong spoke, the entire classroom suddenly disappeared.

Shen Ye found himself standing in a grand and magnificent hall.

All the students were there!

Everyone was like onlookers, standing among many guards, watching what was happening on site.

“This is… an ‘anomaly’?”

“That’s right, it’s a real ‘anomaly’, a history that is completely preserved.”

—This was directly taking a class in a past timeline!

What a grand gesture.

No one had ever taken a class like this, so they all watched with intense focus.

Only to see a monarch on the throne.

Below the throne were civil and military officials.

The monarch laughed heartily and said loudly:

“Thank you, immortal, for curing my illness. Please, immortal, enlighten me with the Dao.”

An old man in white robes stood in the middle of the hall, hands clasped behind his back, and said with a smile:

“There’s no need for enlightenment.”

“If Your Majesty desires longevity, there’s no need to seek it overseas—overseas are barbarian lands, what immortal elixir could they have?”

The monarch spoke from the throne:

“Then, what does the Taoist priest mean?”

The white-robed old man bowed and said loudly:

“There are divine medicines deep within the earth. In my opinion, Your Majesty needs to establish a special institution, gather heroes—”

“And dig down!”

The scene flashed.

Shen Ye found himself and his classmates in a desolate wilderness.

Looking down from the hillside, one could clearly see countless soldiers digging in the valley below.

Carts and livestock came and went continuously, transporting the excavated soil away.

A deep hole had already been dug in the ground.

Suddenly someone shrieked:

“What is this!”

Everyone gathered around to look, only to see a flat green brick appearing in the pit.

A soldier brushed away the dirt, and next to the green brick was another green brick.

—There was a massive building underground!

Teacher Dong’s lazy voice sounded:

“See? The emperor started digging for longevity, and then, he dug up a huge tomb—”

“This is the origin of Xirang.”

“The nearby desolate mountains are now Yu Jing City. Thousands of years have passed, and the world has changed dramatically.”

“What’s ridiculous is that humans only discovered Xirang because of the evil god’s suggestion.”

“Alright, you’re about to integrate into this ‘anomaly’.”

“Class dismissed at 12 o’clock sharp.”

“Today’s homework is—”

“Get rid of your status as a laborer and, as another identity, gradually integrate into this era.”

“If you don’t finish, you can continue in the afternoon, or in the evening—in short, you must escape the laborer status within this week.”

“Students who complete their homework can enter the second lesson with me next week during history class.”

“—Alright, now start completing the class assignment!”

The coffin flew up and instantly vanished into the darkness.

The invisible mist around them dispersed.

Shen Ye and his classmates “appeared” in this “anomaly” of the past era.

It had begun!
