Becoming a Kindergarten Teacher for S-Class Spirit Beasts – CH15

Chapter 15

Watching the comments in the live stream, Huo Ranchuan was left speechless. Young people these days—really, they’re getting more and more outrageous with their words!

They see someone cute and immediately call them ‘wife’; did they even ask if the person agreed?

His spiritual entity, the Teng Snake, was still with Bai Nuosi, but he wasn’t worried about his identity being exposed. He had already informed the royal family, giving the reason that he was uneasy about the S-level spiritual entity and wanted the Teng Snake to protect closely.

As for outsiders, very few people knew that Huo Ranchuan’s spiritual entity could transform into a cub. Those who did were his trusted confidants, as well as core members of the royal family and the military—they would never disclose this information.

The only thing Huo Ranchuan was worried about was that his mischievous spiritual entity might pull some stunt, secretly bullying the black panther and getting caught by Bai Nuosi. What would he do then?

After greeting the viewers in the live stream, Bai Nuosi adjusted the small streaming orb to automatic mode, letting it float in the air. He then began preparing materials for the babies’ lesson.

From Bai Nuosi’s point of view, the viewers immediately saw the much-anticipated spiritual entities—not just one, but two!

Two?

[Huh? Guys, why are there two spiritual entities here? Weren’t we told it was one-on-one?]

[Whoa, so the black panther isn’t the only S-level!]

[After freshmen at the military academy awaken, the internal system announces it. There’s no record of any student awakening a snake-type spiritual entity.]

[This snake spiritual entity can calmly interact with the black panther—it must also be S-level. After all, if the level difference is too big, what if one accidentally hurts the other? They’re still cubs.]

*

The viewers speculated endlessly about the black snake’s identity, with all sorts of guesses.

Bai Nuosi turned on a small TV and found a cheerful children’s song. Smiling at the two cubs sitting upright, he said, “It’s our first day of school; shall we start by singing a song?”

The two cubs glanced at each other. The Teng Snake met the gaze of the black panther cub, and its tail began to twitch eagerly.

Watching the live stream, Huo Ranchuan’s brow twitched, fearing that the Teng Snake might bully the black panther right in front of Bai Nuosi and the audience.

As the musical intro played, Bai Nuosi sat across from the two cubs. He swayed his head and hands to the rhythm of the music, waving as he said to them, “Come on, one-two-three-four, follow the teacher’s movements—clap your paws and wag your tails.”

Huo Ranchuan: “……”

If his spiritual entity caused trouble, he’d lose face, but!

But now he was facing a serious dilemma!

If the snake baby didn’t cooperate with Teacher Xiao Bai, Teacher Xiao Bai would feel awkward and upset. But if it did cooperate, then the one feeling awkward and upset would be himself!

Moreover, such childish activities were fine for newly differentiated spiritual entities to play, but for a twenty-eight-year-old man like him, it was really a bit too much to handle……

With a serious expression, Huo Ranchuan warned the Teng Snake in his spiritual sea, “Keep your tail down. Don’t move, or else I’ll punish you.”

Saying this, the Teng Snake turned to look at the black panther. The black panther cub had just awakened and was indeed a cub!

The Teng Snake glared fiercely: You dance.

Black panther: “……”

Han Baiyi was speechless. If Instructor Huo cared about his dignity, did that mean Han Baiyi didn’t care about his own?

After all, he was the freshman vice-captain, the coldest and most mysterious man among the military academy students. He also cared about his reputation!

Dancing was out of the question—even if it was for Teacher Xiao Bai……

Seeing that the two cubs weren’t moving along with him, Bai Nuosi paused the music and rewound it to the beginning to play again.

He encouraged them, “Come on, sweethearts, move with the music. Watch the teacher’s movements and wag your tails to the rhythm.”

Both cubs had tails, and Bai Nuosi wanted to use this simple method to engage their emotions.

The viewers in the live stream sighed:

[Poor Teacher Xiao Bai, being kept in the dark. Don’t bother; they’re spiritual entities. If their main bodies don’t let them wag their tails, they’d rather die than do it!]

[Exactly. Han Baiyi is such a withdrawn and cold person; how could he possibly play such childish games with Teacher Xiao Bai? I always said this ‘Protect the Cubs’ initiative is just child’s play—completely useless!]

[To be fair, this Teacher Xiao Bai is really good. He has great expressiveness and charisma, and he speaks gently and kindly. Maybe he should switch jobs and teach real cubs at our kindergarten.]

*

The viewers were unanimously pessimistic; no one thought the spiritual entities would dance along.

Indeed, the two cubs sat motionless. The Teng Snake’s tail was coiled up, not daring to move under Huo Ranchuan’s pressure.

But the black panther cub, influenced by the music and Bai Nuosi, began to slightly sway his round head.

He had just awakened and was still very young. Even though Han Baiyi had told him not to, he couldn’t help it. After all, his main body’s heart also enjoyed it. The black panther cub felt that his main body was so complicated.

Bai Nuosi sang and danced:

“One day, the little space lion suddenly received a call,”*¹

Little Tadpole said they just arrived at the carousel,

The little lion turned to look at me, and said he invited the two of us,

Let’s quickly pack up and go.”

At this point, Bai Nuosi reached out his hand to the black panther cub. The black panther cub’s eyes sparkled, and his tail shot up with a “whoosh,” then happily wagged back and forth.

Han Baiyi: “???”

Live stream viewers: [……]

[So this is the real Han Baiyi!]

[Who would’ve thought? He’s quite secretly enthusiastic, huh? Look at how he’s wagging his tail—really into it.]

[Hahaha, everyone, I can’t take it anymore; I’m dying of laughter. I must save this video clip and send private messages to Han Baiyi every day!]

[But I have to say, this song is really catchy. Teacher Xiao Bai, I want to wag my tail along too! Raise your hand.jpg]

*

Bai Nuosi was overjoyed. He gave the black panther cub a thumbs-up, then extended his hand toward the Teng Snake:

“Set the destination, ready to depart from the planet,”

“I just remembered I should go to the store to buy a bouquet,”

“The little lion turned to look at me, saying humans are really troublesome.”

Bai Nuosi exaggeratedly frowned and shook his head. The black panther cub imitated him, also frowning and shaking his head. Because he shook his head too vigorously, he even lost his balance and fell to the ground with a thump.

But soon, the round black panther cub quickly got up from the ground, immediately keeping up with Bai Nuosi’s rhythm, continuing to shake his head and wag his tail.

Han Baiyi: “……”

Live stream viewers: [OMG hahaha, I didn’t expect it to be this funny when I came in hahaha.]

In an instant, Bai Nuosi’s livestream was flooded with “hahaha” comments.

Han Baiyi: “……”

Seeing how happily the black panther cub was dancing, the Teng Snake couldn’t help it either. But under Huo Ranchuan’s pressure, its tail twitched but then retracted. 

Teng Snake: Wuwuwu, I really want to dance too—QAQ.

Huo Ranchuan ignored the Teng Snake’s whining. Anyone could dance, but the Teng Snake absolutely could not.

He gritted his teeth and warned, “Blackie, you’ve been an adult for a long time; you’re not a cub!”

Blakie a.k.a Teng Snake: Wuwuwu, maybe I wasn’t before, but I am now—QAQ.

Huo Ranchuan: “……”

Bai Nuosi continued to sing and dance with the black panther cub. Seeing the Teng Snake eagerly wanting to dance but looking embarrassed, Bai Nuosi picked up the little black snake and shook its tail:

“Little Tadpole sat in the back but didn’t say a word today,

The little lion asked why you’re not talking,

I’m practicing ‘ribbit ribbit,’ but can’t say it well, ‘ribbit ribbit,’

Am I not a real frog?”

The Teng Snake happily wagged its tail while sliding out of Bai Nuosi’s arms due to overexcitement, swaying along with the music. Its movements were much smoother than the round and clumsy black panther cub, who occasionally wobbled and toppled over.

Facing Huo Ranchuan’s anger, the Teng Snake continued to dance joyfully, explaining internally: Ribbit ribbit, I didn’t want to dance either; it’s Teacher Xiao Bai who made me do it, ribbit ribbit…

Huo Ranchuan: “……”

Huo Ranchuan couldn’t stand it anymore. He had to synchronize quickly; otherwise, who knew what embarrassing things his spiritual entity would do.

Bai Nuosi danced with the two cubs:

“Little Tadpole, don’t be too anxious; you still have all of us,

Friends practice together with him,

Little Lion, ribbit ribbit,

Little Rabbit, ribbit ribbit,

Little friends on Beastman Star, ribbit ribbit,

Little Black Snake,”

Bai Nuosi suddenly pointed at the Teng Snake, who had stopped moving.

Huo Ranchuan, who had just synchronized: “……”
