"......" Jin Qiong.
Never had she seen a batch of students like the current one...
So thick-skinned...
After a few light laughs, Jin Qiong finally spoke.
"Alright, alright!"
"Although only two people passed this time, as for the overall results, we teachers are very satisfied."
"If you continue to work hard, passing the assessment after the new year will not be a problem."
"Just make sure your minds are focused on learning, and don't waste your time!"
It wasn't that there weren't such children before. They performed very well in their daily lives, and their regular test scores were exceptionally good. However, after returning from a winter break, their scores inexplicably plummeted. The teachers had no way to deal with such children.
Those who came here for training were all selected from their schools. Although they were still students, they were only responsible for further selecting talented individuals here. In the end, personal favors were irrelevant; only results mattered.
Therefore, every year when the holidays were approaching, the teachers would earnestly advise them, hoping they would spend more time identifying and rectifying their weaknesses during the holidays, just as they did in the training base.
Only by doing so could they maintain their good form after the new year and continue their studies.
Otherwise, with the limited time after the new year, by the time they adapted, the assessment might already be over. What would be the point of training then?
They might as well have stayed in school from the beginning!
......
Lost in thought, Jin Qiong turned around and looked at the students below, her tone becoming even more serious.
"Alright, these are the results. Do you all understand what I just said?"
"Understood."
Jin Qiong nodded, "That's good. Then for this class, you can first review your papers. If there's anything you don't understand, you can ask each other. After you've finished, we teachers will take turns explaining it to you."
The test papers had just been distributed, giving them time for self-reflection, which could often resolve many potential issues.
"Okay, please review them. The other teachers and I have something to do. We'll talk to you again later."
With that, Jin Qiong walked out of the training room with the materials from the podium.
As soon as she left, the training room was immediately filled with the sound of rustling papers.
Besides that, it was exceptionally quiet.
After a long while, voices slowly began to emerge.
Within five minutes, it was full of discussions and debates.
Qiu Xi's corner only started to liven up at the very end.
Perhaps it was because their group was in the high-scoring area, and they spent more time studying their mistakes.
"Xiao Xi, can you let me see your paper?"
Except for etiquette, which she was truly not good at, Gu Rou really wanted to compare her paper with Qiu Xi's to see exactly where she fell short.
"Xiao Xi, we want to see it too..."
Zhao Muchu and Wang Yanyan, while not as capable as Gu Rou, also wanted to admire the papers of the top students and learn how to answer the questions.
"Sure, here you go." Qiu Xi looked at the three of them and casually handed over her paper.
She had also thoroughly studied the ten points she had lost and figured it wouldn't be a problem to discuss them with the teachers if she had time today.
"Okay~"
"Thank you, Xiao Xi!"
As soon as they finished speaking, the three heads gathered together, staring at the paper and starting to murmur.
"140 points..."
"I probably won't be able to score this high even when the assessment happens after the new year..."
Wang Yanyan couldn't help but sigh!
This score was indeed quite difficult to achieve. She wondered if she could reach this level even after another year or half of cultivation...
Others might score so high due to limitations in the exam itself, not because their abilities were limited.
But she was different. Her abilities might just be that limited...
"Maybe Xiao Xi's brain isn't like an ordinary person's?" Zhao Muchu, having finished looking at the paper, no longer wanted to see her own.
The contrast between the two pieces of paper was too stark!
Setting aside other things, the sheer appearance of the papers alone was vastly different...
"Hmm... After seeing this, I think our preparation plan might need to focus more on study intensity..."
Otherwise, she wouldn't dare to confidently say she was very confident...
"Gu Rou, I agree with what you just said!"
"Me too!"
Zhao Muchu and Wang Yanyan's thoughts on the study plan were rarely so consistent with Gu Rou's.
Looking at it this way, they did feel a bit discouraged.
"Xiao Xi, we've looked at it. We'll return the paper to you."
"And we still have a few questions. We'll have to trouble you again."
With a pile of questions, the three of them blushed slightly as they spoke.
Consistently troubling someone else, over time, even if Qiu Xi herself didn't mind, they themselves would feel quite embarrassed.
Although they had tried their best to compensate her materially, they also realized that the beautiful Qiu Xi truly lacked nothing...
In the end, there was no other way. In order to pass the assessment smoothly and complete the training, they could only shamelessly impose on her.
......
"Lan Qi, do you have time?"
"Let me see my paper..."
Fang Lingling was still holding back her anger with the paper in her hand.
She was so infuriated with herself for missing that one point.
"Wait a moment, I'm not in the mood right now." Nian Lan Qi lowered her head, her eyes vacant, staring somewhere, and her words carried a hint of coldness.
Hearing Nian Lan Qi's words, Fang Lingling froze for a long time.
Why did Lan Qi seem so strange?
Normally, she would be happily showing her paper and chattering to her right now...
It was strange today. She hadn't said a word since receiving the paper.
Nian Lan Qi's unusual behavior made Fang Lingling dare not ask further. She gently smoothed her paper and started chatting aimlessly with the person next to her.
......
Nian Lan Qi thought about the two "2"s on the screen, and no matter how she thought about it, it felt like a mockery.
And the 140 above her; if it weren't for this unexpected appearance, she wouldn't be in this state, carrying a "2"!
She clenched her fist tightly, then let go after a long while.
"Lingling, I'm better now. Do you still have questions?" The moment Nian Lan Qi looked up, a gentle smile graced her face.
"Really?" Fang Lingling turned her head in surprise when she heard Nian Lan Qi's voice.
She was in a fix!
The person she was discussing with was far inferior to her, and they could never get to the point. If Lan Qi were willing to talk to her, the effect would surely be different!
Nian Lan Qi chuckled and nodded, "Of course~"
"Great!" Fang Lingling nodded vigorously.
In the time they were talking, she quickly took back her paper and sat down right next to Nian Lan Qi.
Upon seeing this, the smile in Nian Lan Qi's eyes became even more pronounced.
First come, first served. Those who arrived earlier had a slight advantage.
Otherwise, it would be her who would be clinging to someone right now, wouldn't it?
