86: Orange team uniform

“Hello, these are your academy’s uniforms.”

“Uniforms?” Yang Haoran was a little confused. He had been to this competition three times already, and there were never uniforms, only armbands to distinguish teachers from different academies.

As if knowing Yang Haoran’s confusion, the staff member explained, “This is a new rule this year. Inside the venue, teachers from every academy must wear this uniform. You are only allowed to take it off when you leave the venue.”

Alright, since it was a rule, they could only comply. But Yang Haoran still wanted to try and negotiate. A 42-year-old middle-aged man like him wearing a cloak of this color was truly an eyesore.

“Can the color of this uniform be changed? We can make our own uniforms.”

“You can’t change it freely. The uniform styles are all standardized. The colors for each academy are randomly assigned by the academy deans through a lottery. This time, your academy happened to get orange.

Of course, if you communicate with another academy and swap colors, that’s also fine. The Sand Sea Elementary Academy over there isn’t satisfied with their color either.”

The five people looked in the direction the staff member pointed and saw the fluorescent green uniforms on the teachers of Sand Sea Elementary Academy, remaining silent.

Suddenly, they felt that orange-red was actually quite good. It was better than being all green. Forest green would be fine, but fluorescent green was unacceptable to them.

“No, no, I think this color is quite good.”

Yang Haoran quickly refused the staff member’s kind offer, afraid that if he was a moment too slow, the staff member would go call the teachers from Sand Sea Elementary Academy to negotiate a color swap.

No wonder the dean didn’t come this time. It turned out it was because they had to wear these uniforms, which is why all the other people chosen by the academy this time were younger teachers.

As if knowing they would refuse, the staff member chuckled softly.

“Alright, if you have any other questions, you can ask me or any other staff members in the venue. All our staff members wear white vests.”

Looking at the staff member in normal-colored clothes, Yang Haoran and the other four felt extremely envious.

Everyone nodded. Xu Le, seeing his brother nod, raised his hand above his head and said, “Okay.” After speaking, he looked at his brother, confirming whether his reply was correct.

At this moment, the staff member noticed there was also a little guy. Perhaps Xu Bai was behind the tall Wang Lang just now and was blocked, so he wasn't noticed until a childish “Okay” sound came.

“Oh, you brought a child. Do you need me to make a small uniform for him?”

“Can we? Can our Lele also have a uniform?” Liu Zhitao exclaimed in surprise.

Liu Zhitao has a very gentle personality and loves children very much. She had been playing with Xu Le these past two days.

“Of course, you can. As long as the color and style don’t change, anyone who comes can wear a uniform, and children are no exception. I’ll make one for the child right now.”

With that, the staff member happily ran towards the lounge, eager to go make the small uniform… “Let’s first arrange the entry cardss, and then read them out in order using the cards reader.”

After speaking, Yang Haoran put on the orange-red cloak and began to move.

Xu Bai looked at the uniform in his hand, then put it on. He then arranged Xu Le on a small mat.

Xu Le’s eyes were always glued to the uniform, even forgetting to play with the toy in his hand.
