Girl, I'll Teach You Cultivation

Everyone felt anxious after seeing the expression on Ye Wenchen's face. Lin Shu, who stood beside him furrowed his brows, "What happened? You didn't become the topper?"

Ye Wenchen had told him that the title of topper was already in his bag so Lin Shu wasn't expecting something to go wrong. He was hoping to have a topper among his brothers.

He peeked into the screen and cried out in alarm, "How is this possible!?"

"What is it?"

"How much did Young Master Ye score in the end?"

Ye Wenchen was already left stupefied, color draining from his face. He couldn't and wasn't ready to believe it. The score on the cellphone was a 476.

His college entrance exam score was 476 points.

Everyone made a commotion.

"Young Master Ye, this is…"

Everyone's first conclusion was that Ye Wenchen had failed at the final step. These circumstances weren't that rare as it was common for students to mess up the order while filling the answers due to the huge pressure.

"Around 400 points, that's not even enough to qualify for 3^rd tier, right?"

"Ye Wenchen will have to enter a polytechnic course."

Ye Wenchen's face twitched as he gazed towards Cheng Lingsu. He had already fantasized about confessing to her after the school announced him as the topper. He planned to enter the Imperial University hand-in-hand with her and enjoy the sweet, beautiful university life with her while incurring envy from the others. However, this beautiful delusion of his had broken into pieces.

If he repeated the year again, there's no way the girl would wait. It was possible that he wouldn't have any encounters with Cheng Lingsu in the future.

"No, this can't be happening."

"Susu…"

Cheng Lingsu gazed at this outstanding boy with sympathy.

Reality was cruel. All the past grades were useless as the schools only looked at the final assessment and used the college entrance exam's grades as the only standard.

"Good news, good news…"

A cheer burst out from the far away crowd.

It seems a happy event had occurred.

The students, as well as the teachers, ran with their all, including a potbellied one who ran while bouncing his fat meat with a flushed and excited face, "The topper is from our school, the topper is from our school…"

The student council members present were all stunned, feeling quite baffled as except Ye Wenchen, there was no one who possessed the strength to obtain the topper position among the students of Second High.

"The topper!"

It was a matter of honor for Jiang City's Second High as well as glory of all students in Jiang City that the topper had appeared from here.

It was an amazing feat.

"But who is it?"

Everyone felt curious as it seemed like no one knew who the topper was in the end.

Ding-Dong!

The bell rang inside the auditorium and the general assembly formally began. Students were still rushing in from outside. No matter whether Second High's performance was good or bad in this time's college entrance exam, the glorious fact that the topper had appeared from here was enough to complement everything else.

"Students, please calm down…"

The new headmaster was still unfamiliar to everyone. He was also quite excited right now. He had hardly taken up the post and such a huge achievement had fallen like a pie from the sky on his head.

His voice revealed his excitation, "First, I would like to congratulate everyone for completing your 3 years of high school. No matter whether you did well or not, it's all over now. Today, everyone can take a calm look over the past 12 years."

"…"

The headmaster started his long speech.

"This year, our Second High has acquired a splendid achievement. The number of students who had enough points to enter the Imperial University is nine."

A thunderous applause followed after that.

The fact that nine people from the same school had achieved enough scores to enter the best educational establishments had left them speechless.

It only proved that Second High was worthy of being called Jiang City's No. 1 High School!

After reaching this point, the new headmaster grew even more excited, "Moreover, I very solemnly and emotionally declare that… this year's Jiangnan's provincial topper has appeared from our school."

Clap! Clap! Clap!

"Aaah, who is it?"

The entire auditorium buzzed with chatter. Even some of the teachers whispered to each other excitedly.

"It ought to be Ye Wenchen, right?"

There was no one else other than him.

The students of Ye Wenchen's class started to cheer for him and one of them shouted out, "Ye Wenchen, Ye Wenchen…" causing the other students to follow him.

The topper indeed received this kind of reception.

The other classes also started to cheer, "Ye Wenchen, Ye Wenchen…"

The whole auditorium buzzed with Ye Wenchen's name.

Seated on the chair, Ye Wenchen's face turned paler. He had imagined this kind of scene several times but when it was actually happening, he only felt like someone had given him a loud and clear slap to his face.

On the stage, the headmaster continued, "Students… This time's topper isn't Student Ye Wenchen."

"Huh?"

"It's not him?"

This unexpected news brought chaos again.

Everyone quickly shut their mouths and felt embarrassed for Ye Wenchen for a few seconds.

"This time's topper is from 12^th Grade Class E."

Everyone's sight shot towards the area of 12^th Grade Class E. Hearing the headmaster's words, the class in-charge Madam Miejue felt quite surprised and revealed a stupefied face. The happiness had come all too sudden that she couldn't believe the topper had come from her class.

The students of Class E made a commotion as well.

"Who has good grades in Class E?"

Ye Wenchen's group had always taken the limelight away from the others, leaving them in the darkness. No one paid much attention to the others.

"Ye Bing, it isn't you, right?" asked Liu Xiaoyun.

Ye Bing's score this time had exceeded her expectations. It was a total of 701 points. It was enough to safely gain entry to the Imperial University or the National University. She had scored a full 50 points higher than her usual mock exam grades.

"That's not possible. My score is far from it."

The headmaster finally revealed it, "I solemnly announce that the topper this time is… 12^th Grade Class E's Student Jiang Xiu."

"Jiang Xiu?"

"Impossible!" Ye Wenchen and the others cried out.

Jiang Xiu was the weakest student in the school and always ended up at the last position in all the mock exams. They simply couldn't believe that he was the topper.

"Student Jiang Xiu's score is 743 points…"

"Everyone please given an applause!"

The headmaster took the initiative to start clapping with his all, drawing out all his strength.

The students of Class E were all stunned.

"Did you hear that? 743 points, oh God!"

Those grades were really heaven-defying. No one had ever achieved such high grades in the previous years. Only 7 points were lost and this also included doing the Literature and English compositions.

"That damn fruit seller is the topper?"

Cheng Lingsu, Ouyang Qian, and Li Dan were all stupefied.

"H-How did he…"

They couldn't believe that the student in the last position of the mock exams had become the college entrance exam topper.

"Everyone, congratulate Student Jiang Xiu!"

"Thanks to Student Jiang Xiu, our Second High and Jiang City had won an honor."

Another thunderous applause followed after this.

"Student Jiang Xiu, please ascend to the stage…"

Though Jiang Xiu hadn't checked his grades, he knew that he'd be this year's topper as the Godhood Halo from Lin Mi had suddenly increased when the results were released yesterday night.

Jiang Xiu walked over towards the stage calmly. At this moment, everyone's gaze was on him. A single thought flashed through all of their minds right now - The loser is making a comeback in life.

Though his home ran a fruit stall, he had become the topper. It was a magnificent feat.

A few of them were extremely moved from Jiang Xiu's actions.

They could imagine how excited his parents would feel after hearing this news. They would feel grateful that they had obtained proper results for all that they had invested. There was no better repayment than this to them.

"Thank you, Headmaster and everyone!"

An awful gloom filled Ye Wenchen and Lin Shu's eyes as they saw Jiang Xiu bask in glory with the identity of the topper.

"Though the title of 'topper' sounds pleasant, it's just a title for scoring the first position in the exam. You'll still have to enter a university to study and have to find a job after graduating…"

"You're too naïve if you believe you can make a comeback at life by scoring first in the exam."

Cheng Lingsu wore a complex expression on her face. She was indeed quite shocked that Jiang Xiu had seized the topper title. She had even begun to see him in a new light but her heart felt unwell. Since Jiang Xiu was able to become the topper, it meant that his performance wasn't actually lacking at all but he still did badly in the normal tests. She believed that Jiang Xiu had done this intentionally, that he was waiting for this precise moment to make a strong counterattack at her and show her the proof that he wasn't weaker than anyone else.

"So childish."

The gap between us isn't something you can complement by becoming the topper.

After graduating from university, your annual salary would be 3,00,000 at most, and you'll gather around 10 million even if you work hard all your life but my family can make a profit of 100 million just from a single project.

Why can't you understand that we are from two different worlds and can never get together?

Cheng Lingsu shook her head. She lamented for Jiang Xiu while seeing him stand on the stage and appear proud of his success.
