Chapter 19

The entire grading room erupted into chaos.

In the mind of the grade head, Chu Heng, the image of Wu Xiaofang immediately surfaced, and he couldn't help but laugh out loud, "Haha, it must be Wu Xiaofang. That brat, when I asked him, he modestly said that if he was lucky, he might get 100. Haha, let's open it and see."

Getting a perfect score, even if it was just in one subject of the written exam, was still something to boast about.

Old Instructor Hou trembled as he opened the restriction of the mystic pattern array and saw a name.

His expression suddenly became very strange.

"It... it's not Wu Xiaofang."

Old Instructor Hou looked at Chu Heng.

"Oh?" Chu Heng was surprised and asked, "Then who is it?"

Old Instructor Hou was silent for a moment and said, "Director Chu, why don't you come and see for yourself?"

Chu Heng, feeling curious, came over and was immediately stunned.

The other instructors, seeing this, became even more curious.

What's going on?

If it's not Wu Xiaofang, then it might be Mu Xinyue or Wu Xi, these geniuses, but why does Director Chu have such an expression?

...

...

"Results are out, results are out, everyone come and see."

A student shouted loudly.

Immediately, countless students rushed to the stone board outside the examination hall.

On the board, blue ripples like water waves shimmered.

A student reached out and eagerly placed his palm on the stone board.

"Second year, class 2, Hou Xiaochao, 68 points."

A line of text appeared on the stone board.

"Wow, I passed, I passed, hahaha."

The student named Hou Xiaochao was instantly overjoyed and laughed out loud.

Subsequently, other students checked their scores one by one.

There were both joy and sorrow.

When most of the students had almost finished checking their scores, the true grade leaders slowly approached the stone board.

"Second year, class 1, Leng Ye, 81 points."

A line of text appeared on the stone board.

"Wow, 81, the first to break 80."

"Such a difficult test, to get 81, he must be a monster."

"Truly a genius from the first class of the second year, really impressive."

A chorus of exclamations rose around them.

Leng Ye slowly retracted his hand, the pride on his face hard to hide.

He turned to Wu Xiaofang and said, "Senior Wu, thanks to your pre-exam guidance, I was able to get such a high score. Senior Wu, you must have done even better. Why don't we reveal the mystery now and see your score?"

"Yes, Senior Wu, let us see your score."

"It must be over 90."

"Of course, Senior Wu was the top scorer in the last major exam."

The surrounding students also chimed in with flattery.

Wu Xiaofang smiled slightly and said, "Alright."

He placed his palm on the stone board.

"Second year, class 1, Wu Xiaofang, 92 points."

A line of text appeared.

Immediately, a chorus of exclamations rose around him.

"Amazing."

"My goodness, 92, just 8 points away from a perfect score."

"Senior Wu, you are truly incredible. This time, the top scorer will surely be you again."

Many students were directly stunned.

Terrifying.

Is this the strength of the top student from the last major exam?

Wu Xiaofang smiled faintly.

Although it was a bit lower than his estimated score, considering the extremely high difficulty of this exam, 92 points was a completely acceptable score.

"Unfortunately, I still lost 8 points. I thought I could get a perfect score. Sigh, I must have been careless. In the future, I need to be more cautious and take exams seriously, not just go through the motions."

Wu Xiaofang said with a smile.

"Truly worthy of Senior Wu, such a high score, yet so humble."

Leng Ye sighed in admiration.

Wu Xiaofang smiled slightly, feeling increasingly pleased.

With a score of 92, he should be firmly in first place for this year's modern history written exam.

His eyes scanned the crowd and suddenly saw Lin Beichen beside him. He was immediately moved and said, "Oh? Isn't that Lin Beichen? Haha, I heard from Director Chu that you were the first to submit your paper this time. I'm sure you did very well."

Numerous eyes immediately focused on Lin Beichen.

Lin Beichen pushed through the crowd, didn't say much, and directly placed his palm on the stone board.

A line of text slowly unfolded—

"Second year, class 9, Lin Beichen, 100 points."

Instantly, the surroundings fell silent.

The air suddenly became still.

The scene froze.

Everyone seemed to be paused, standing still.

Wu Xiaofang's mind buzzed, and he was completely stunned.

He thought he had seen it wrong.

He rubbed his eyes and looked carefully.

"100 points? A perfect score? This scoundrel, how could he get a perfect score, this is impossible..."

He couldn't believe the number he saw.

Lin Beichen said with an exaggerated expression, "Oh? How is this possible? I answered randomly with my eyes closed and got 100 points... sigh, so boring, it's all because the questions were too easy this time, no challenge at all."

Everyone was stunned.

Listen to this, is this human talk?

Lin Beichen then looked at Wu Xiaofang with a grin and asked, "92 points? Is that high?"

Wu Xiaofang, angry, said, "You... what do you mean?"

"Nothing, just that I can't stand some people who, with just 92 points, act as if they're on top of the world, and then pretend to be modest by saying they just went through the motions. Haha, are you still a baby? So childish. Do you know how disgusting your pretentious boasting is?"

Lin Beichen was merciless, his words like knives, directly humiliating him on the spot.

"You... you..." Wu Xiaofang felt every word Lin Beichen said was like a sharp blade, piercing his heart. His face turned from green to red, and in a fit of anger, he lost his composure and shouted, "You... did you cheat? Otherwise, how could a scoundrel like you get such a high score?"

Lin Beichen looked at him with disdain and said, "For such easy questions, do I need to cheat?"

"Defensive, can a scoundrel like you get 100 points? Do you even deserve it?" Wu Xiaofang laughed coldly and said, "Lin Beichen, you must have cheated. Tell us, how did you cheat? Why don't you confess to the instructors? You can't possibly get such a high score..."

"That's right, this scoundrel must have cheated."

"A useless, trashy person like you, getting 100 points, impossible."

"Let's report this to the grade head together."

"Yes, let's all go."

Many students also joined in, indignant.

The crowd was in an uproar.

At this moment—

"He didn't cheat."

A voice sounded.

Grade head Chu Heng came to the stone board.

The students immediately quieted down.

Chu Heng looked at Lin Beichen with a complex expression and said to everyone, "What's the commotion? The mid-year major exam is a solemn event, monitored by the mystic pattern array throughout, making any cheating impossible. Moreover, our grading instructors have already reviewed the entire answering process through the array, ruling out any possibility of cheating. Lin Beichen's score in modern history is genuine and valid."
