Chapter 25 (Part 1)

When Mrs. Ye Bing entered the Evergreen Class with the exam papers, her lips were pressed tightly together, forming an ugly frown.

The whole of the Evergreen Class could feel how angry she was and how she was about to unleash that anger unto them.

When they heard her first sentence of, Our overall results this time is not bad, there isnt much difference from before, they all let out a sigh of relief.

But in the next second, they all watched as she slammed the exam papers on the podium!

But you have all done so badly in the Maths paper!

None of you scored full marks for it!

There are three people who scored full marks, including someone from the upstairs International Class. So why isnt there anyone from our class who got full marks?!

Is it because Im a worse teacher than the other two Maths teachers?!

Ye Bing was burning up on the inside. She could forget about the fact that she always lost to the Gold Medal Class Mr. Jiang. After all, their class made up the School Representative Team, so it was normal for her to be unable to win against them.

However, this was the first time in a few years that she had been overtaken by the International Class Mr. Lu!

When she recalled how back in the office, Lu Wangwei was smiling in absolute delight as he said to her, all is fair in love and war, with his look of having obtained advantages yet choosing to put on an innocent farce, the fire in Ye Bings heart raged stronger.

That person from the International Class must have been very lucky, someone beneath the podium muttered.

That question was so difficult. It was hard for them to even understand it.

Not only was it beyond their syllabus, it was way beyond the scope of the Tournament.

They knew based on how Ye Bing said that only three people from their block managed to answer the question. Not even all six members from the School Representative Team managed to answer it So how could someone from the International Class who always scored results lower than theirs be able to answer it?

No one took it to heart. It was just one question. In the end, they would still trump over the International Class total marks.

Zhao Yuan wasnt bothered by it either. Although she didnt complete that question, she was still quite good in her other subjects, so her final ranking will not be too bad.

All in all, it was impossible for the only person from the International Class who scored full marks for the Maths paper to be Zhao Mingxi.

She continued to keep her head lowered, her eyes focused on the book. However, her mind was where the teachers were moving on to the next step of announcing the rankings.

The projector was turned on. Zhao Yuan was getting increasingly nervous. Although she did not seem like it, her hands which were unconsciously clenching the pages of the book were covered in sweat.

Pu Shuang who was sitting beside her whispered, Dont be nervous. So long as youve performed as you normally did, you will be in the Top 20 amongst the three classes. Zhao Mingxi just transferred here from the Normal Class last month. She probably has yet to catch up with our syllabus, so how could she possibly compete against you?

Im not nervous. Zhao Yuan shook her head and said, I am certain that my results will be better than hers. Im just afraid that

She was afraid that the gap between her results and Zhao Mingxis will not be big.

Afraid that Zhao Mingxi would have made great improvement in her studies.

Although Zhao Yuan didnt finish her sentence, Pu Shuang understood what she meant. True. As Zhao Mingxi started from the bottom, whenever she makes any progress your family will definitely notice it. But as your results have been consistently good, your family members must be used to it already.

Zhao Mingxis transfer from the Normal Class to this building must be accompanied by a huge fall. She has to fall to the bottom of the rankings. Only then will Zhao Yuans family notice the difference between them.

Yeah.

Zhao Yuan closed her eyes and regained her composure.

When she opened her eyes once more, the results were displayed on the screen.

She held her breath as she searched for her own ranking, looking through the results of each and every subject.

Pu Shuang looked from up to down and found her name first. She said, Oh my God, Yuanyuan, youre amazing! Ranked No.5 in class and ranked No.20 among the three classes!

You got into the Top 20 again!

Zhao Yuan immediately let out half a sigh of relief. She smiled at Pu Shuang as she spoke, I didnt do my best this time.

Pu Shuang said, I think you shouldnt worry about it so much. There are a total of 150 people among the three classes. Zhao Mingxi will either be in the 149th or 150th place. Her results werent that good to begin with with her average being near the bottom of the Normal Classes. Besides, it is practically impossible for someone who had just transferred from the Normal Class to catch up to our syllabus!

The more Zhao Yuan listened, the more she felt relieved. She said, I do hope that she doesnt get such bad results, or else my eldest brother will have to be called here by her homeroom teacher again.

While the two of them were talking, Ye Bing pressed a button and changed the screen from displaying the results of their class to the results of their whole building. She said with a cold expression, Dont think that you ought to be happy just because you scored good results. Look at the results of the School Representative Team and observe the gap between your results and theirs.

The students from the Evergreen Class began to seek for the results of the people they were familiar with on the list of the whole buildings ranking.

Suddenly.

Someone said, Oh my God, wait a minute. Am I seeing this right? Is that Zhao Mingxis name?

What place is she in? Have I gone blind? Teacher, can you zoom in a little?!

Li Haiyang, was she the one who rejected you?

What do you mean Li Haiyang*? You should call him Li Jingyu*. That Young Master from the Fu family personally gave him this nickname. Isnt that exciting?

*Haiyang = sea. Jingyu = whale.
