Chapter 46: The Top Scorer
“Just a little bit away from breaking into the top five hundred. The students this year are really strong,” Zhang Dada said with emotion.
This year, in addition to the sudden arrival of transfer students, Yude No. 1 High School and Yude No. 2 High School also produced many strong students. Otherwise, with their previous years’ results, they could have easily entered the top five hundred.
Qin Anran said, “Our ranking this time is already enough to enter a third-tier academy, which is not bad.”
Although she said that, she still felt a little unwilling in her heart. Her real goal was a second-tier academy, and she needed to be at least in the top three hundred. The highest-ranked among them was only five hundred and thirty, which was quite a gap.
………
On the other side, Jiang Sheng, Xu Luo, and the others also walked out of the dungeon, talking and laughing.
“Upperclasswoman Ling’er.”
Suddenly, Xu Luo saw Li Feng and the others. She walked over gracefully and said, “Upperclasswoman Ling’er, how were your results in this Gaokao? We all broke into the top four hundred, and Jiang Sheng even broke into the top three hundred, with a chance to enter a second-tier academy.”
“Sigh, my ranking is only two hundred and fifty. It’s not worth mentioning. It’s still far from my ideal academy,” Jiang Sheng waved his hand, looking embarrassed, but his tone was quite proud.
The goal he was talking about was naturally Iron Blood Academy, which was at the bottom of the first-tier academies, but it was still not something he was qualified to enter.
“You’re too modest. If it weren’t for those transfer students, you could have entered the top one hundred.”
Xu Luo said, then turned to Lin Ling’er and changed the subject, “Upperclasswoman Ling’er, I told you to join us long ago. Maybe we could have entered a good academy together this time.”
“I have to thank Upperclasswoman Ling’er for quitting. Only then did I have the opportunity to join you guys,” Chu Yun said with a big laugh. He was brought into the team by Jiang Sheng after Lin Ling’er quit, so he took advantage of it.
“Yo, top four hundred is amazing?” Hearing the few of them echoing each other, Yang Wei looked at Sheng Xu and said, “Little Xu, what’s your ranking? I forgot.”
Sheng Xu rolled his eyes, knowing that Yang Wei was about to show off, so he cooperated, “I also forgot. My ranking is too low, I’m embarrassed to look. By the way, Upperclasswoman Ling’er, tell everyone your ranking!”
As soon as these words came out, everyone’s eyes turned to Lin Ling’er. Her face turned slightly red, and she felt a little embarrassed.
Xu Luo looked at Yang Wei and the others with disdain and said, “Upperclasswoman Ling’er, being with these people is a waste of your Gaokao opportunity. But fortunately, you still have a chance next year. Don’t be discouraged if you didn’t do well this time. By the way, what’s your ranking?”
“Exactly two hundred,” Lin Ling’er was even more embarrassed, but she still answered.
Xu Luo and the others were shocked, doubting their ears. Jiang Sheng even shouted, “Two hundred? What? That’s impossible?”
“Sigh, Upperclasswoman Ling’er is really strong, just a little better than me. I’m only two hundred and twelve,” Sheng Xu added from the side.
“I’m two hundred and ten,” Yang Wei pretended to be natural, “By the way, what’s your highest ranking?”
The results of this Gaokao had a bit of luck involved. If they hadn’t encountered enough cat demons, they might have even entered the top one hundred.
“I don’t believe it!” Jiang Sheng took a deep breath.
“I don’t believe it either.”
Xu Luo and the others suspected that Yang Wei and the others were playing them, but they started to have some doubts in their hearts because Lin Ling’er had never lied.
Just then, a broadcast sound came out.
“Congratulations to Li Feng from Yude No. 3 High School for achieving the top score in this year’s Gaokao.” Zhou Zhengyang, who had somehow gotten a podium, stood on it, holding a loudspeaker, with a proud smile on his face.
“Do we have to play it so big?”
Below, the principals of Yude No. 1 High School and Yude No. 2 High School, Xu Chang, were taken aback, and then they felt a little speechless. The people from Yude No. 3 High School were too shameless to promote themselves at this time.
However, they felt a little envious, but they soon calmed down.
Because in previous years, Yude No. 3 High School had the weakest strength, and this year they finally managed to get the top scorer, so they let them be!
“Li Feng, who is Li Feng? Does anyone know him?”
“How is that possible? How could he be the top scorer?”
“. . .”
Below, a large group of students burst into an uproar, discussing among themselves.
◈◈◈
Especially for the students of Yude No. 1 High School and Yude No. 2 High School, this name was too unfamiliar. Even Jiang Sheng was much more famous than Li Feng.
“Li Feng. The top scorer.”
Qin Anran heard this name, her face turned pale, her fists clenched tightly, and she shook her head, “Impossible, how could he be the top scorer?”
“Anran, could it be that among the transfer students, there is also someone called Li Feng?” Zhang Dada asked with doubt at this time.
Qin Anran did not answer, but looked around, trying to find Li Feng’s figure. For some reason, she had already begun to regret it in her heart.
………
On the other side!
Zhou Zhengyang also found Li Feng. Ignoring Jiang Sheng and the others around him, he directly pulled his arm and urged, “Quick, quick, go up and say a few words.”
“It’s really him!” Seeing this scene, Jiang Sheng’s face flashed with disbelief. He finally confirmed that the top scorer Li Feng that Zhou Zhengyang was talking about was the Li Feng they knew.
“I’m not going!” Li Feng refused. He didn’t like to be too public. A peaceful and quiet life was better.
Tomorrow he could finish absorbing the Beginner Level Source Power, and then he could peacefully play games and level up again.
He didn’t want such a life to be broken by others.
“Ahem. Student Li Feng, the school has cultivated you with all its heart, spent countless resources, and put in so much effort. Look at my hair, it’s all turned white because of worrying about the future of you kids.”
Zhou Zhengyang tugged at his few remaining hairs and shouted loudly.
“Teacher, that’s very sudden!” Suddenly, Yang Wei interjected from the side.
Zhou Zhengyang: “. . .”
“Didn’t you say I was a hopeless case, addicted to games?” Li Feng also looked at Zhou Zhengyang with suspicion.
Li Feng had heard about Zhou Zhengyang’s comments about him.
“You heard wrong. I was just disappointed that you weren’t living up to your potential. It’s normal to play games when you’re under a lot of pressure from studying.”
“I’m still not going. My stomach hurts.”
“Li Feng, you can’t do this.”
Zhou Zhengyang glared at Li Feng. This student had never let him rest easy from the beginning. But now that he was the top scorer, he still took a breath and prepared to continue persuading him. Yang Wei suddenly came up and said a few words in his ear.
“Your method really works?” Zhou Zhengyang asked with some disbelief.
Yang Wei said calmly, “Just try it and you’ll know.”
“Okay!”
Zhou Zhengyang looked at Li Feng and said, “If you give a good speech this time, the guaranteed bonus is thirty thousand yuan. If the publicity is done well, I can add another twenty thousand.”
“Hmm, there’s such a good thing?”
Li Feng stepped forward and grasped Zhou Zhengyang’s hands, saying sincerely, “Please let me participate in this speech. After all, this is my alma mater, and it’s only right to do my part for it.”
The people around: “. . .”
Zhou Zhengyang: “. . .”
Tomorrow is a matter of life and death. If I advance, I will add more updates.
