Chapter 65: Going to College from 1
The results of the first mock exam were officially released this morning.
Class teacher Wang Zhishu stood on the podium, holding the report card in his hand, his face beaming with an undisguised smile, clearly indicating that the class's overall performance this time was quite good.
He cleared his throat and said with a smile, "Ahem, students, the mock exam results are out. Our class's overall performance has improved a lot. It's clear that everyone has been studying very hard during this period, and everyone has done a great job. They deserve praise."
As soon as he finished speaking, cheers erupted in the classroom, and the atmosphere instantly became lively.
Wang Zhishu gestured for everyone to be quiet before continuing, "This time, the class leader, Li Xian, still ranks first with a total score of 681, demonstrating consistent performance. Xu Lingjing, with 678 points, remains firmly in second place."
Upon hearing this, Li Xian instinctively straightened his back, a hint of pride on his face, and calmly accepted the envious glances from those around him, finally regaining some of his sense of superiority.
"In addition, many students in our class have made great progress this time." Wang Zhishu glanced down at the report card and looked straight at the last row of the classroom. "Lu Yuan, with a total score of 546, ranked twelfth in the class. Compared to the last big exam, he has improved by more than 300 points."
"Whoosh—!"
The whole class erupted in an uproar, all eyes turning to Lu Yuan in the back row, filled with shock and disbelief.
Everyone knows that Lu Yuan used to compete with Gao Zhe for last place all year round, but now he has jumped to twelfth in the class, and may even break into the top 100 in the grade.
Everyone initially thought his English had improved by leaps and bounds, but they never expected that he would improve in all subjects in all aspects.
Then, the homeroom teacher smiled and said, "Gao Zhe has also made great progress. His total score is 386, an improvement of more than 100 points. He deserves encouragement as well."
Gao Zhe's face immediately lit up with joy. He jumped up from his seat, grinning widely, "Hahaha, I never thought I, Old Gao, would have a day when I could finally hold my head high! Everyone, keep a low profile, don't praise me too much!"
Although 386 points only ranked him eighth from the bottom in the class, it was a world of difference compared to his previous predicament of consistently ranking last or second from the bottom, enough to make him complacent.
Almost the entire class burst into laughter at his exaggerated and smug demeanor.
Many people have already secretly decided to get closer to Lu Yuan and Gao Zhe in the future and learn their secrets to improving their scores.
Today, the results of the first mock exams for all senior high school students are being released one after another. At this time of year, it is always a time of joy for some and sorrow for others. Some are overjoyed, while others are disappointed.
When Gao Zhe found out he had scored 82 on his Chinese exam, he was overjoyed and couldn't hide his excitement. This was the first time he had broken the 80-point mark in Chinese, and his progress was clearly visible.
In contrast, Lu Yuan was remarkably calm and composed, carefully checking his scores for each subject. Since he had already anticipated this, he showed little emotion.
He was far ahead in English, scoring 146 points;
The student scored only 96 in Chinese, failing to break 100, highlighting a significant weakness with almost all the points lost concentrated in the reading comprehension section.
A score of 85 in math is still not passing, but it would place him in the middle range within the overall level of the school.
He knew he had memorized the formulas perfectly, but he was not very good at applying them in the exam. He had to work on this weakness as soon as possible. If all else failed, he would ask a top student for help or enroll in a tutoring class for targeted improvement.
He performed best in biology in the combined science subjects, scoring 92 points. This type of subject, which relies heavily on memorization, is no challenge for him now.
The student scored 65 in physics and 62 in chemistry. The problem was the same as in mathematics: they memorized the formulas but couldn't solve the problems flexibly.
Upon careful review, almost all the lost points were due to knowledge points that require logical understanding and flexible application; rote memorization alone is far from sufficient.
Lu Yuan frowned slightly, a sense of helplessness rising in his heart.
With just over two months until the college entrance examination, he wasn't sure if he could master these difficult points in a short period of time.
Fortunately, we have already made solid progress. If we grit our teeth and push ourselves to improve by another fifty points, we will have more than enough to cross the first-tier university admission line.
After all, I am a reborn person. If I can't even get into a top-tier university, I would be ashamed of my identity.
In stark contrast to Lu Yuan's composure, Li Xian's face had already darkened, and his mind was in turmoil.
Lu Yuan actually managed to score over 500 points?
He started from the bottom and worked his way up. If he continues to make steady progress at this pace, he might actually be able to surpass himself in the college entrance examination.
The more he thought about it, the more uneasy he became. Fine beads of cold sweat crept onto his forehead, and his mind was in turmoil.
"Li Xian, what are you daydreaming about?" Zheng Jiarui, who was next to him, gently patted his shoulder and asked softly.
Li Xian suddenly snapped out of his daze, his tone tinged with bitterness and resentment: "Do you think Lu Yuan has been hiding his true abilities all along? Did he secretly enroll in tutoring classes? Otherwise, how could he have improved so dramatically all of a sudden?"
In reality, Zheng Jiarui was even more flustered than Li Xian.
She underperformed this time, scoring only 615 points.
If Lu Yuan hadn't cheated, and had only managed to reach over 500 points through hard work during this period, it wouldn't be impossible for him to surpass her if given another two months to sprint.
"Don't panic, stay calm." Zheng Jiarui suppressed her inner turmoil and pretended to be calm to reassure Li Xian, which was also to reassure herself. "Even if he scored over 500 points based on his own ability, that's pretty much his limit. It will definitely be difficult for him to improve significantly in the future."
Li Xian was still filled with unease: "Are you sure?"
He really didn't want to end up having to apologize to Lu Yuan in public, and he couldn't accept that the other party had made a comeback and surpassed him in just three months. Such a disparity was enough to make him mentally collapse.
"I just asked around," Zheng Jiarui said, leaning closer. "Lu Yuan mostly scores on memory-based questions, but he loses a lot of points on questions that require applying formulas or logical reasoning. This kind of weakness can't be overcome in a short time. He can't possibly master so many difficult points in such a short period of time, so don't worry."
"That's good...that's good."
Li Xian nodded reluctantly, trying to calm himself down, but his hands were still clenched tightly, his palms already soaked with cold sweat.
During the break, Lu Yuan met Ye Yixian in the corridor, and he truthfully told him his mock exam results.
Ye Yixian was astonished. She had expected Lu Yuan to improve, but she never expected the improvement to be so astonishing.
"How many points did you get?" Lu Yuan asked softly.
Ye Yixian scratched the back of his head, looking somewhat embarrassed: "I only got 505 points."
Lu Yuan understood and was not surprised.
Ye Yixian had fallen behind in too much homework and had only recently started to hurriedly catch up. With limited time and heavy tasks, and without the added advantage of his rebirth, it was only natural that his grades could not improve quickly.
"It's okay, stay calm, and just keep pushing forward next time."
Lu Yuan raised his hand and gently rubbed the top of her head.
Ye Yixian had already gotten used to his affectionate gestures, and a warm feeling even quietly rose in her heart.
However, due to the crowds during breaks, she would cherish this unique pampering even more if no one was around.
Before class started, the two stood side by side by the corridor railing and earnestly discussed their upcoming review plan.
Forget about which university I can go to in the future; the most important thing right now is to focus all my efforts on improving my grades.
Only when your scores are stable can you have the confidence to choose a university; otherwise, all your aspirations are just empty talk.
Ye Yixian harbored a small wish in her heart: to be admitted to the same university as Lu Yuan and embark on their bright future together.
Just as the two were discussing their study plans in hushed tones, a commotion and discussion suddenly arose from the other end of the corridor.
"Isn't that Xia Anqi? What's she doing here?"
"Oh my god, it really is her!"
"Why did she suddenly come to our Class 5?"
Amidst the clamor of voices, Lu Yuan and Ye Yixian turned to look, only to see a slender, elegant, and aloof girl walking slowly towards them.
It's Xia Anqi.
They had just crossed paths on stage this morning, and Lu Yuan was quite impressed with her.
At this moment, her gaze was fixed on Lu Yuan, and she slowly walked towards him.
