Chapter 645

These were all reflections of the leaps and bounds that Seaton High School had achieved in improving their quality of education.

However, Crestfield High School and Seaton High School were hosting their school celebrations on the same day. Furthermore, the two schools were close to each other. Those who did not look kindly upon Seaton's recent advancements were giddy with excitement to watch the school be humiliated.

"This is a good opportunity for us to compare the two schools' guests since they're hosting their celebrations at the same time."

"We can see which side is more luxurious and powerful."

"Considering how they produced a top scholar of the province two years ago, I bet Seaton High School will have more awesome guests!"

"I heard that several senior high-ranking officials are going to join Crestfield High School's celebration! There was also a rumor that the legendary retired provincial deputy minister will also make an appearance!"

"Then, let's try guessing which esteemed alumni Seaton High School will invite for their celebration."

"One of the section chiefs in the Water Conservancy Bureau graduated from Seaton High School. But apparently, he's not willing to admit that he's a graduate of the school."

"I also heard that the head of the public security office of our district will attend the celebration. The principal of Seaton High School is even going to welcome him personally."

These people were just waiting to make Seaton High School the butt of their jokes. Did Seaton really think they were so great? They still had a long way to go if they wanted to go up against Crestfield.

On the afternoon of the celebrations, both schools were decorated with colorful flags and banners that added to the joyous atmosphere permeating the air. Confident smiles were stretched across the students' faces. Many students and parents arrived to join in on the festivities, no matter which school they belonged to.

It was undeniable that Crestfield High School's celebrations were on a larger scale compared to Seaton High School. Many cars drove into Crestfield in the early morning, eventually forming a line outside of the school. Some cars had even parked in the designated parking spots for Seaton's guests.

Not only did the parents, teachers, and students of Crestfield treat those from Seaton with a level of haughtiness and contempt, but there was also an odd sense of animosity in their actions. The source of this animosity was due to the fact that Seaton, which they had looked down on in the past, was currently being debated to be on the same level as Crestfield and could possibly even be part of the first division with them.

Those from Crestfield considered such thoughts to be blasphemous and wholly unforgivable. The animosity also stemmed from how the students of Seaton now behaved differently when encountering a student from Crestfield.

In the past, whenever a Seaton High School student ran into a student from Crestfield High School, they would unconsciously feel a sense of low self-esteem, no matter if the student was a reputable figure or just an ordinary student of Crestfield. If the beauty queen of Seaton dated the most normal and insignificant student of Crestfield, they would still think that she had ulterior motives such as wanting to climb the social ladder using their relationship.

But things were different now. The students of Seaton could face the students of Crestfield with their heads held high, and not with low self-esteem like before. It also became more difficult for the male students of Crestfield to successfully pursue the female students of Seaton since they had higher standards now. All these changes made the students of Crestfield High School feel as if their pride had taken a blow. The superiority they once felt had also disappeared. Another reason for the animosity was how Seaton High School had received more investment funds following the increase in enrollment numbers. With these funds, the school was able to attract better quality students and also invest in improving the classes they offered.

Seaton had managed to employ a large number of special-grade teachers, even surpassing the number of teachers that were in Crestfield's employment, which caused the teachers of Crestfield to lose their sense of superiority as well. The source of thɪs content is find⦿novel.net

However, many believed that the superiority that the students and teachers of Seaton had just a taste of will be unceremoniously snatched away once the celebrations were over. One just had to look at the long stretch of luxurious cars lining up outside Crestfield and compare it with the motorcycles and electric tricycles parked outside Seaton.

One just had to look at the people who were participating in Crestfield's celebrations-high-ranking officials, executives of Fortune 500 companies, conglomerate presidents, and entrepreneurs. Every single one of them were excellent talents in their respective fields. Meanwhile, the guests of Seaton High School paled in comparison.

Many of Crestfield's alumni had made an appearance. Besides the leaders from different fields, there was also Samson Goth, the executive deputy mayor, and Liam Faulkner, the chief of the education, science, culture and health department, as well as other important figures from different education departments. These people had all made an appearance to support Crestfield.
