YM778.TV Chapter 52: 52. Shen Qinghan is also a top student
“Lin Zichen, 100 points.”
As soon as these words were uttered, the entire classroom fell into silence.
It was as if the Earth had stopped rotating.
It was as if time had paused.
Everyone turned to stone, their expressions frozen in shock.
It wasn’t until Lin Zichen stood up from his seat and walked up to the podium to collect his test paper that the others began to snap out of their daze, exclaiming in disbelief:
“100 points! He actually scored 100 points! How, how did he do it?!”
“Ridiculous! This is absolutely ridiculous!”
“Even the two top students from Nanguan City have been toppled, Lin Zichen is really awesome, the pride of Shanhai!”
Toppled…
Hearing those extremely harsh words, the expressions on Lu Gang and Wang Shujie’s faces were not very pleasant.
Especially Wang Shujie, his entire face turned green.
For his entire life, even in a city full of top students like Nanguan, he had been the darling of the stars, admired by his peers.
He had not expected that upon arriving in Shanhai City, known for its less-than-stellar educational level, he would be trampled underfoot in the very first exam of the new school term.
This was something he, who considered himself superior and full of a sense of superiority, found hard to accept.
On the other side.
He Yu’s face also looked somewhat uncomfortable.
He had thought that scoring 88 points would surely secure him the third place and win the 333 yuan reward.
But Lin Zichen’s perfect score pushed him out of the top three.
He felt embarrassed, as if his previous confidence in saying that he would treat his teammates to food after receiving the prize money made him look like a clown.
On the podium.
Lin Zichen ignored the astonished voices coming from all directions and calmly walked up to Cai Yuanfei to receive his test paper.
Cai Yuanfei handed him the test paper, all smiles as he said:
“Zi Chen, everyone knows that you perform well in written tests, but I really didn’t expect it to be to this extent, even Lu Gang and Wang Shujie are no match for you.”
“Teacher Cai, you flatter me.”
“Not at all, not one bit,” Cai Yuanfei replied before chuckling again, “Zi Chen, those who practice martial arts should not be too humble, too modest. With strength one should boast a bit, that’s how you show vitality and it’s more conducive to progress.”
“What Teacher Cai said is true,” Lin Zichen nodded in agreement, then followed up with, “By the way, Teacher Cai, when will the 888 yuan reward for the first place be distributed?”
Cai Yuanfei laughed, “It will be distributed after announcing everyone’s scores in class. I will transfer the reward money to the class group through a personal dedicated transfer.”
“I understand, Teacher Cai,” Lin Zichen said, then stepped down from the stage and returned to his seat.
As soon as he sat down, the girl in the front desk, Shen Qinghan, turned around and said:
“Xiao Chen, you actually got a perfect score, that’s so impressive!”
“Quick, quick, let me see the test paper to admire it, I want to see how you did it,” Shen Qinghan said eagerly and curiously as she looked at the perfect test paper in Lin Zichen’s hands.
Lin Zichen smiled and handed the test paper to her.
Seeing this, He Yu and Li Chuxin also hurried over to see how a perfect score was achieved.
An hour later.
The Genetic Fusion teacher Liu Deren, holding a stack of graded test papers, walked into the classroom.
He strode to the podium, looked at everyone, and smiled:
“Students, thanks to other teachers, the results of your recent Genetic Fusion exam have finally all been graded.”
“Teacher, quickly hand out the test papers.”
Wang Shujie urged Liu Deren.
Having been surpassed by Lin Zichen in the Mechanism Enhancement test, Wang Shujie urgently wanted to outperform him in the Genetic Fusion results.
Liu Deren chuckled and said, “Don’t rush everyone, I will read out the names and scores one by one. When you hear your name, come up and get your test paper.”
Soon, names along with their scores began to be read out at the lectern.
The majority of students failed the test.
The two top students from Nanguan City, Lu Gang scored 81 points and Wang Shujie scored 83 points, barely passing the excellent mark.
Lin Zichen, who received the most attention, shocked the whole class once again with another perfect score.
Two perfect scores in a row!
Especially in the Genetic Fusion exam, where most people couldn’t even pass, he still got a perfect score!
Such an extraordinary performance completely redefined everyone’s perception of a top student.
He’s not just a top student, he’s practically a study god!
During this time, Wang Shujie refused to believe this absurd reality and voiced his doubts to Liu Deren.
How could someone score perfect on such a difficult test?
One would have to know the answers in advance to score perfect.
However, Liu Deren promptly dismissed these baseless suspicions without any evidence.
Liu Deren said that he had designed the exam questions himself and that the answers were not available online, so there was no way to cheat.
Wang Shujie fell silent.
Seeing this arrogant guy eat humble pie, He Yu felt a schadenfreude delight and complained to Lin Zichen:
“That guy made me laugh, can’t pass the test and still can’t accept defeat, suspecting you of cheating, what a shame for us people from Nanguan City.”
“Exactly, Wang Shujie really has no class, what an ugly display!” Li Chuxin, who was picky about appearances, also joined in the banter.
Hearing these two badmouth someone behind their backs, the timid Shen Qinghan quickly whispered in caution, “You two shouldn’t talk like that, it’d be bad if someone overheard.”
He Yu was unconcerned, “What’s there to be afraid of? It was he who couldn’t accept defeat and suspected Zi Chen of cheating first. What’s wrong with me cursing him a bit? Is he going to hit me or what?”
Li Chuxin also looked displeased, “That’s right, Wang Shujie deserves to be cursed. Just badmouthing him behind his back doesn’t satisfy me at all, I’m going to make a voodoo doll of him when I get home tonight!”
“Ah, voodoo? Make a voodoo doll?”
Shen Qinghan was greatly shocked to hear this.
As Li Chuxin’s words became more outrageous, Lin Zichen couldn’t take it anymore and promptly intervened:
“Chu Xin, badmouthing him in private is enough, don’t go for the voodoo doll.”
“Fine, I won’t make it.”
Li Chuxin ignored Shen Qinghan’s advice but listened to the dream lover of nine hundred million girls.
While they whispered among themselves, Liu Deren continued calling out names and scores on the stage.
When only one test paper was left to go, he finally called out Shen Qinghan’s score.
“Shen Qinghan, 78 points.”
Hearing her score, Shen Qinghan was initially a bit stunned, but then she became so excited that her hands trembled slightly.
78 points!
Only lower than Lin Zichen, Wang Shujie, Lu Gang, and He Yu!
Top five in the class!
“Oh my god, Han Han, how did you score so high?!”
Li Chuxin was shocked and for a moment thought she had misheard, looking incredulous.
He Yu, however, did not find it surprising at all, and even seemed to take it for granted:
“What’s so strange about that? Didn’t you see what level her childhood sweetheart is at? She’s been growing up with Zi Chen since they were kids, could her academic performance be bad?”
At the same time.
Almost everyone in the class looked at Shen Qinghan, showing extremely surprised expressions on their faces; they hadn’t expected her to score so high on the Genetic Fusion exam.
After all, she had only just managed to pass the mechanical transformation test before.
Feeling the gazes of surprise, shock, disbelief, and incredulity from everyone, Shen Qinghan gleefully stood up from her seat and walked to the lectern to collect her paper.
As she walked, she kept thinking to herself how wonderful it was to have Qinghan as her childhood sweetheart, who had been reading books related to Exotic Beasts with her since childhood; otherwise, she definitely wouldn’t have scored so highly now.
