Understanding Monsters was an uncommon class . It was rare to find such a class, even in the entire Huaxia Region .
The main reason was that such a class required a lot of human resources, as well as financial capital .
The bodies of dead monsters were still relatively easy to get . However, it was hard to acquire a variety of monsters that were still alive . Only the best public universities were able to offer such classes .
A private high school offering such a class would be considered a luxury .
In a spacious field, there were iron cages that were covered with black cloths . The angry growls of monsters were coming out from some of the iron cages .
Three classes were taking the class together, as Understanding Monsters was a major subject . Many of the students were sitting on their benches quietly, waiting for the teacher to arrive .
A middle-aged man wearing spectacles, a blue down jacket, and black trousers walked over from the field . He was carrying a thermos cup in his hands .
When he saw Gao Peng, he waved his hands and smiled . "Class has already started, student . Please go and take a seat . "
" . . . "
The security guards who were walking with the middle-aged man recognized Gao Peng and immediately shouted out, "Greetings Principal Gao!"
The middle-aged man was a foreign teacher . He had heard of Gao Peng, but he had never seen him personally . When he heard the guards calling Gao Peng "principal," he pushed up his glasses and took another look at him . This principal is way too young!
He thought that Gao Peng was a senior .
The middle-aged teacher smiled awkwardly . "Sorry, Principal Gao . I didn't recognize you just now . "
"It's fine . It's normal to misunderstand . I know I look young . " Gao Peng laughed .
The middle-aged teacher nodded and prepared to begin the class . Gao Peng suddenly had an idea . "How about I take over for this period of the class?"
The middle-aged teacher was taken aback . He thought that maybe he might've offended the principal just now . The reason he had come here as a teacher was because his wife had just given birth to a pair of fraternal twins . He had left his job at a university to come here . At that moment, he couldn't help but feel anxious . If he lost this job, too . . .
"I'm not such a petty person that I would do that . It's just because these students remind me of my own time in school, and I suddenly feel inspired . Don't worry . After this lesson, you'll still be teaching them," Gao Peng comforted the teacher .
The teacher let out a sigh of relief . "Okay . In that case, I'll head back first . "
Gao Peng went on stage and clapped his hands, gaining the attention of the children .
Li Junzong recognized Gao Peng . Isn't this Teacher Wang's class?
"Teacher Wang has some business to attend to at home . I'll be substituting for him today . "
The students started to discuss among themselves . Some of them had forgotten what Gao Peng looked like, while others recognized him . After a while, all of them knew that the person who was standing on stage was Principal Gao .
All of the students were grateful for what Gao Peng had done for them, so they all respected him .
"This is the first time I'm teaching Understanding Monsters . Please forgive me if my lecture is lacking in any way . "
The students were very accommodating and gave him a big round of applause .
Gao Peng nodded happily and smiled kindly . He took the black cloth off the farthest iron cage on the left . The sudden light from the sun shocked the white Red Spiked Claw Boar inside the cage . It bent its hooves and knelt on the floor, making all sorts of whining noises .
"Students, what do we have here?" Gao Peng pointed towards the monster inside the cage and said, "We've discovered a gentle Red Spiked Claw Boar . It's even one of the rare white species . "
As he spoke, he opened the cage .
The students immediately screamed . Those sitting in the first row even got up and ran to the back . Li Junzong, who was sitting in the first row, also wanted to get up and run, but his trust in Gao Peng convinced him to suppress his fear and stay put .
The guards nearby were so terrified that they almost went crazy . Principal Gao's familiars weren't there . They couldn't let anything happen to Principal Gao, otherwise, it would be disastrous!
The guards' familiars roared and rushed to the stage .
The previously tame Red Spiked Claw Boar suddenly extended the sharp spikes on its body when it became startled by the familiars' roars . Its spikes pricked up as it rushed towards Gao Peng like a giant hedgehog .
"Remember students, a Red Spiked Claw Boar will extend its steel spikes when startled, just like a hedgehog . " Gao Peng extended his hands and used two fingers to grab the boar's nostrils, then lifted up forcefully .
"Ahh!" The Red Spiked Claw Boar squealed pitifully . Its legs softened as it fell down where Gao Peng pushed it .
"The nostrils are its weakness . Everyone should pay attention to this . As long as its nostrils can be attacked, aim and hit them directly . " Gao Peng turned his head around as he spoke .
The guards' familiars had just made it onstage . Gao Peng looked at them and shouted, "Get down!"
The familiars all went down the stage obediently .
"Mother of God!" The guards were in disbelief . The Red Spiked Claw Boar was an Elite-tier monster . It was very strong and stout, so the force generated from its tackle would be more than a few tons . However, Principal Gao had been able to deal with it using one hand, like an adult bullying a child .
Stunned, the group of students looked at the slender figure on the stage as if they were watching a myth .
The "iron law" that humans weren't able to fight against monsters and win was something that everyone knew .
Of course, Lord-tier monster trainers could depend on the strength that they gained from the Feedback from their familiars to subdue Normal-tier monsters . However, these were exceptions and certainly weren't common . Most Lord-tier monster trainers wouldn't go around showing off that they were able to defeat a Normal-tier monster with their own hands . . .
"Has… has Principal Gao been swapped with a monster?" a student said, frightened .
Once that sentence was uttered, there was a commotion among the students!
Clang! Gao Peng knocked on the iron cage . The iron cage railing was dented by his punch . "I'm a human, not a monster! Pay attention to the lesson and go back to your seats!" Gao Peng pointed to a female student as he said, "You, girl, let go of that boy . You're suffocating him . "
The girl blushed and let go of the boy, then quickly went back to her seat .
"Okay . We'll continue with our lesson . " Gao Peng became calm again . He used his left hand to pull a spike out of the Red Spiked Claw Boar forcefully .
"Ow, ow, ow, ow—" the Red Spiked Claw Boar let out a mournful cry .
Some students couldn't bear to watch . This was the first time they were seeing a monster in such a pitiful state . The whole scene felt very surreal .
"The Red Spiked Claw Boar's weaknesses are here, here, and here…" The room was filled with echoes of the boar on the ground that kept crying out in pain .
After 20 minutes, Gao Peng returned the worn out Red Spiked Claw Boar to the iron cage . He then covered the cage with the black cloth and lifted the black cloth of the iron cage next to it . In the corner of the cage, a Blue-tailed Double-headed Wolf was trembling . . .
The class ended after two hours with Gao Peng feeling extremely satisfied .
Gao Peng ate dinner at the school canteen . He felt that the school's cook wasn't as good as Grandpa, so he left the school with a tinge of regret .
After that day, all sorts of rumors about Principal Gao circulated throughout the school . Some said that he was a god, others said he was a human-shaped familiar, and some even said he was a human and familiar hybrid .
