Chapter 559 - The Top Two Students

Chapter 559: The Top Two Students

The next morning, they took the physics examination. The duo handed in their papers faster than yesterday and finished in twenty minutes.
Of course, many people had already submitted their papers before them.
Hence, the invigilator did not look at their papers. After keeping them, he placed them in his bag.
The next few subjects were the same. The duo continued handing in their papers at the same speed.
After the examination, it was the weekend, which was also the break time.
Next Monday was the day to announce the results and redivide the classes.
Lu Sheng and Chu Yan did not feel anything special about this.
That was because they felt that it was only a matter of time before they entered Class One.
—————
At that moment, the teachers who were marking the papers were shocked when they saw their results.
Chu Yan’s essay was deducted by one mark, Lu Sheng’s language was full marks, and even her essay was full marks. The two of them scored full marks for the other subjects.
When the total marks were tabulated, even Principal Gu was shocked.
One scored seven hundred and forty-nine while the other scored seven hundred and fifty. Let alone the students of Class Seven, no one in Class One could compare to them.
No, or rather, in the entire capital, there were not many people who could achieve this result.
“You’re saying that two of the students from Class Seven are the top two students in school? How is that possible?”
Principal Gu’s first reaction was doubt.
Who would believe that his carefully cultivated Class One was suppressed by Class Seven?
“Impossible. Those two must have cheated.”
“I don’t think so. The way they answer the questions is different from the standard answer. Moreover… they’re new.”
“They’re new?”
Principal Gu was stunned. He seemed to have thought of something and his heart jumped. He hurriedly asked softly, “What are their names?”
The dean who informed the principal said, “One is called Chu Yan and the other is called Lu Sheng. They seem to be students who just transferred over.”
Principal Gu sucked in a cold breath. “If it’s them, that’s normal.”
When the dean heard this, he secretly complained in his heart. Just now, the principal even swore that they had cheated. Now, he said that it was normal. This change was too fast.
After hanging up the phone, Principal Gu rushed to his office to see the results.
Then, he specially sent Chu Hongzhong their transcripts.
After Chu Hongzhong saw the results, he could not help but be surprised.
Of course, he was not surprised that his son could score seven hundred and forty-nine. Instead, he was surprised that Lu Sheng, who had skipped two grades, could score full marks.
“Whose child is this? She’s so powerful!”
Secretary Lin asked in surprise when he saw the results.
Chu Hongzhong smiled and said, “A friend’s child. She jumped from Year One to Year Three.”
She was obviously not his child, but when he said this, he somehow felt honored.
“Young Master did well too. Seven hundred and forty-nine, just short of one mark.”
Chu Hongzhong shook his head. “He obtained full marks in every subject previously, but this time, he got one mark deducted. He has regressed.”
When Secretary Lin heard that, the corner of his lips twitched.
This was called ‘regressed?’ Indeed, he did not understand the world of geniuses.
Chu Hongzhong called Principal Gu and asked where Chu Yan’s point was deducted from.
Principal Gu told him that Chu Yan’s point was deducted from the essay because he had written the wrong word.
It was a low-level mistake.
Chu Hongzhong even suspected that Chu Yan had deliberately written this, but he did not have evidence.
When they returned to class on Monday, the rankings were already pasted on the school’s noticeboard.
Class Seven, which was looked down upon the most, had actually produced the top two students, while the students of Class One could only be ranked behind them. This made everyone in Class One wonder if those two people had cheated.
