CHAPTER 418: CHAPTER 142 OFFICIALLY STARTING THE SERIES (PART 2)

Although robots were assigned to maintain order outside Blue Star University, as soon as Du Xixi stepped off the hovercar, she felt surrounded by people. Even with mechanical soldiers guarding her and Miao Miao, she still felt a bit crowded.

"Miss, I’m fine on my own; you should get back on the hovercar," Miao Miao said worriedly, glancing around. Those rushing to register and enter the university were all looking in their direction.

They were looking at Du Xixi.

Aside from the crowd, there was nothing else; after all, the students admitted to Blue Star University had been carefully screened by the university beforehand. Their conduct was surely upstanding, so they weren’t rushing in recklessly.

This was also why Du Xixi dared to get out of the car.

"It’s fine, don’t worry," Du Xixi smiled, holding Miao Miao’s wrist while she looked around for the registration area. With so many people, it was hard for Du Xixi to navigate through the crowd to find where to register.

The hovercar slowly took off and headed into the campus on its own. A mechanical soldier carrying a half-height box approached Du Xixi. The box contained Miao Miao’s luggage, and she quickly moved to take it but was deftly avoided by the mechanical soldier: "Miss Miao Miao, I’ll carry this."

The mechanical soldiers were familiar with Miao Miao, especially the one helping with her luggage, who always accompanied her on outings. So, although Miao Miao felt a little shy, she didn’t insist on carrying it herself.

The box seemed small, but it was filled with many snacks Du Xixi had given, making it quite heavy. For the mechanical soldier, it might be like carrying a small bag, but for Miao Miao, it would take a lot of effort.

Why put yourself through extra trouble if you can take it easy?

"Let’s go." Du Xixi finally found the registration area and pulled Miao Miao over to line up. It wasn’t easy for several mechanical soldiers to squeeze in, so they spread out to guard Du Xixi and Miao Miao.

"Next!" The registration process was efficient. Du Xixi and her friends, who were initially at the end of the line, soon found Miao Miao’s turn had come.

"Good morning, Your Highness!" The professor at the registration desk didn’t know Du Xixi, but he certainly recognized her—and even Miao Miao. "And this must be Miao Miao, right? I saw you during the entrance exams."

Miao Miao glanced at him without offense, realizing he was indeed a proctor she had met during the entrance exams. She nodded in surprise: "Hello, Professor."

The professor didn’t look old, with slightly upturned lips and wearing a pair of black-framed glasses, giving off a youthful vibe. However, given he taught and proctored entrance exams at Blue Star University, he surely wasn’t as ordinary as he seemed.

The registration process at Blue Star University involved just submitting identity verification and the admission letter. Miao Miao had already been arranged by Ke Lian to become a citizen of the Blue Star Empire. Presenting her admission letter and identity verification to the professor completed her registration.

The professor adjusted his glasses and handed a dormitory assignment sheet to Miao Miao, speaking in a gentle tone: "Miao Miao, your dormitory is on the east side of Building 3, room 501. The Political Economy building is on the east side of the campus, and specific locations are marked on the bulletin board. Please arrive in the classroom by 10 a.m. tomorrow."

"Thank you, Professor." Miao Miao nodded in thanks and followed Du Xixi into the campus after the professor waved them off. She had visited a few times before, but this time, it felt entirely new.

Maybe it was because Miao Miao’s mindset had changed. Before, she visited Blue Star University as a possible future student, but now, she came as a legitimate student of the university.

Du Xixi found it rather amusing, strolling through the campus as a student’s guardian was definitely more interesting than as a professor. Even the lotus pond, which she saw every day, seemed especially vibrant and beautiful today.

Blue Star University didn’t have too many or too few students, admitting only a few thousand each year. Students in each department were so few and far between that the department-assigned dormitories almost felt deserted.

Take Miao Miao’s dormitory, for example. Though it was meant for four people, there would only be two residents. When Miao Miao and Du Xixi arrived, Miao Miao’s roommate hadn’t showed up yet.
