He lives on another planet and is majoring in Earth Science.

Chapter 372 Transfer Student Respects Teacher Li Ji

Professor Wilde announced loudly: "Congratulations to our new transfer student, He Ping, for having his paper published in the second-tier journal 'Primitive Temptation,' titled 'A Practical Analysis of One Hundred Tortures on Earth in the Interstellar Alliance.'"

Amidst gasps of surprise, He Ping, the Water Man, swaggered to the center of the classroom with his hands in his pockets.

Li Ji could see clearly that there was only one author listed on the back of the paper—He Ping.

Everyone was talking about it.

"Wow! He wrote a paper all by himself and it got published in a second-tier journal?"

"Even someone as strong as Li Jidailu needs to team up to have a chance, but he went up all by himself!"

"The balance of power between two top students in the class is about to be broken. I'm really looking forward to what will happen next! Who will get to stay on as a teacher?"

"Why don't you worry more about where you'll be picking up trash after graduation?"

Li Ji had expected He Ping to put pressure on him, but he hadn't imagined it would be this much pressure.

Meanwhile, Dailulu was rubbing her hands together, her eyes shining with excitement.

"Interesting, meow. I've finally met an opponent who can challenge me, meow."

"Why are you so excited? You weren't like this when Nini was here."

"That bitch Nini doesn't even deserve to be my opponent, meow? My hatred for her is entirely because she betrayed me, meow. With her shallow knowledge of Earth, I've never taken her seriously, meow."

"What a tough mouth."

They watched as He Ping slowly walked towards the center.

A bee-shaped floating microphone floated in front of him, and he began to speak, accompanied by the sound of trickling water from the surround sound system.

"Hello everyone, I am He Ping, a new transfer student from Milver Institute of Technology."

"It is an honor to present this paper on behalf of the Department of Earth Sciences at Milwall University."

"I want to thank the school for its nurturing."

Milia, sitting in the audience, said sarcastically, "What is he thanking us for? Our school didn't nurture him, but his school has nurtured him to death."

He Ping continued, "I'm not saying this to flatter you; I was truly influenced by the Department of Earth Sciences at Milver University. Here, I want to thank my mentor. I used to be a terrible student and had absolutely no interest in Earth Sciences. It was his work that enlightened me when I was lost."

The professors all straightened their backs, waiting for He Ping to call their names.

"That's Li Ji!"

As soon as this statement came out, the whole place was in an uproar.

All eyes turned to Li Ji, leaving him somewhat bewildered.

Professor Piyander's teeth were clenched so tightly they clicked.

Professor Qi pinched his dentures and said self-deprecatingly, "It's better this way; no one else will notice that I'm resentful."

Faced with the sudden roll call, Li Ji was somewhat at a loss.

His mind was buzzing with questions.

"What works do I have? It can't be that I started learning about Earth science by playing my games, can it?"

He Ping loudly announced: "It was after I came into contact with his teaching aid 'Earth Survival' that I began to fall deeply into earth science."

"This was truly my introduction to gaming!"

He Ping's tone began to become intense.

"I wonder if any of you have felt the same way? I spent 10 x 648 RMB recharges and still didn't get the Popo Alien. Do you know how much that hurt my young heart? My heart was broken!"

He Ping took off his shirt, revealing his bulging pectoral muscles. He pointed to his chest, on the left side where his heart should be, where the water slowly flowed out, revealing a hollow.

Everyone's eyes were fixed on Li Ji like gun barrels.

He could sense the resentment filling the entire classroom.

Li Ji couldn't help but feel a chill run down his spine.

"Don't look at me like that! I clearly stated the drop rate, and I also wrote that there are risks involved in recharging, and you should be careful when drawing cards!"

He shouted at He Ping, "So you swore to take revenge on me?"

He Ping shook his water-filled head: "No, that's not it. Why do you think like that? Since then, I've realized that the only way out is to study hard and become number one. I want to earn lots and lots of money and recharge lots and lots of 648. That way, I'm sure I can get my beloved Perpetual."

Everyone was stunned.

"Is it really such an inspiring story? The values ​​are so positive! It's completely different from the tone of our major." He Ping asked curiously, "Was the competitive environment in your major very harsh before?"

Everyone simultaneously thought of Nini, who wasn't there, and as if they had rehearsed it, they said in unison, "Extremely bad! Not just bad!"

Lee Ki asked curiously, "So you don't plan to get revenge on me?"

"I have absolutely no intention of doing so."

Li Ji breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good."

He Ping suddenly revealed a smile that was difficult to decipher.

Li Ji couldn't help but feel a chill run down his spine.

"Wait a minute, why are you smiling like that again? Don't tell me you still consider me a rival?"

He Ping smiled but remained silent.

Li Ji continued, "Could it be that you feel great because you think you've already surpassed me in academic achievements?"

He Ping smiled without saying a word, but his smile became even brighter.

Shark Baby shouted, "Does he not know how to make other expressions? Let me help you!"

In the blink of an eye, Shark suddenly appeared in front of He Ping and, taking advantage of everyone's inattention, slapped He Ping in the face with a shark tail fan.

That enigmatic smile finally vanished, along with He Ping's head.

"My head!"

Panic immediately gripped the entire room.

Everyone angrily shouted, "Shark, what are you doing!"

Shark Baby panicked: "I just wanted to change his expression. Don't worry, I'll pick his head back up for you."

He immediately threw himself on the ground and began to suck up the remaining water.

Seeing the chaotic scene, He Ping laughed loudly, "I was just kidding! I didn't actually have a head. My whole body is—"

"puff--"

Like a gourd-shaped character, Shark sprayed water all over He Ping.

"Back to you!"

"actually--"

"Pfft~"

"No--"

"Pfft~"

"this--"

"Pfft~"

"necessary."

He Ping stood there forlornly, unable to distinguish which parts of his body were his own water and which were Shark Baby's bodily fluids.

Professor Wilde quickly asked everyone to sit back down to prevent further chaos.

He Ping returned to his seat, and another water head appeared on his neck, staring intently at Li Ji.

Li Ji felt a chill on his back. He turned his head and said, "La Hula, can you stop touching my back? It's so cold, and it's happened more than once."

Lahu awkwardly withdrew her insect hand: "Sorry, I feel your back is quite comfortable."

"You're really gross."

As soon as Li Ji turned back, Dai Lulu came over.

"I was planning to show off properly, but this transfer student stole my thunder, meow. I'm not happy, meow."

Dailu crossed her arms and pouted, her airplane ears showing again.

Li Ji wasn't in the mood to be unhappy; he desperately needed He Ping's information to assess the extent of the threat this man posed to his decision to stay on as a teacher at the university.

At this moment, Professor Wilde said loudly, "Let's look at the first-class journal 'Planet,' which is also the only first-class journal in the field of primitive civilization. Although our paper cannot appear in it for the time being, every article in it is worth studying in depth."
