My slightest action was the system's limit.

Chapter 18 Thirty Thousand (Please add to your favorites)

The martial arts classroom of Class 9, Grade 11.

The electronic blackboard at the back of the classroom already displays the rankings of the four martial arts scores for this final exam.

[First Place: Li Zhichao, 355 points]

Second place: Jiang Ye, 330 points

Third place: Xu Sisi, 315 points

【.】

"Brother Jiang, congratulations!"

Tao Xiaogang, Xia Qing, and others came to congratulate him: "You got second place in the class."

Jiang Ye looked at them and smiled, "Congratulations to you both for making it into the top thirty this time."

There are a total of one hundred students in the class.

The top 30 have already reached the upper-middle level.

Tao Xiaogang scratched his head and laughed, "I also have to thank Brother Jiang. If it weren't for Brother Jiang guiding me in the fourth assessment, I wouldn't have been able to get such a high score."

In regular virtual assessments, he usually only gets 20 or 30 points at most.

This time, however, he scored a full 50 points.

Xia Qing and the others also scored over forty points.

Don't underestimate the difference of just 20 points; it's enough to surpass a dozen or more places in the rankings.

In the college entrance examination, 20 points is enough to eliminate hundreds of thousands of people.

"Then you all need to work even harder," Jiang Ye said with a smile. "Don't let your rankings drop when the next semester starts."

"Haha, definitely."

While the group was chatting, Chen Zilu, dressed in a plain white dress and white lace-trimmed stockings, walked into the classroom.

"Everyone has seen the results of this final exam."

Chen Zilu, with her cool and aloof demeanor, calmly commented on and summarized the assessment results on stage.

Ten minutes passed in a flash.

Chen Zilu didn't waste any time. After a brief ending, she said, "Jiang Ye, Li Zhichao, you two come to my office."

After saying that, she strode out of the classroom with her long, slender legs.

Everyone knew that the semester was over, so they packed their things and prepared to go home.

"Ah Ye, why did the teacher call you over?" Wen Yuehui looked at Jiang Ye with a puzzled expression.

"It might be about the grades." Jiang Ye was also somewhat puzzled, but he had another guess in his mind.

A moment later, in Chen Zilu's office.

"There's something I need to tell you."

Chen Zilu looked at the two boys in front of her and smiled, "There will be a trial at school in a month. Would you like to participate?"

"A month from now, during the summer vacation?" Jiang Ye was somewhat surprised.

He guessed it was about the trial.

But I didn't expect it to happen so quickly.

Li Zhichao frowned and said, "Isn't there only one spot for the trial in the regular class? Can we both participate?"

Chen Zilu said calmly, "Rules are rigid, but people are flexible. As long as someone is outstanding enough, the school will make an exception."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Ye's heart stirred.

He guessed that Chen Zilu had probably applied for a spot at the school specifically for him.

Chen Zilu continued, "This trial is the lowest level trial. Anyone who has mastered the Star Martial Cultivation Method can participate, and it will be held right here at the school."

"But if one only achieves mastery of the cultivation method, the probability of passing the trial is very low."

"If you fail the trial, there are certain risks involved. Although there will be no danger to your life, it may affect your future cultivation."

After their conversation, Jiang Ye and the other man fell silent.

The trials will be dangerous!

However, they were not surprised.

Every trial involves risk; otherwise, what would be the point of calling it a trial?
Chen Zilu said, "This is your only chance. If you decide to participate, tell me now."

She just finished speaking.

Jiang Ye and Li Zhichao said in unison, "I'll participate."

Chen Zilu nodded, not surprised.

"Li Zhichao, you can go back now. Jiang Ye, please stay."

"Yes."

Li Zhichao glanced at Jiang Ye, then turned and left.

Jiang Ye looked at Chen Zilu and asked, "Teacher, is there anything else?"

Chen Zilu waved her hand and threw a disc-shaped object towards the wall.

With a "whoosh," the thing stuck to the wall.

This is a soundproofing device.

After doing all that, she looked at Jiang Ye and said with a smile, "Not bad, you've improved from 25th to 2nd in just one semester."

"It's because the teacher taught well," Jiang Ye said honestly.

"You're always so modest," Chen Zilu said, her gaze growing increasingly appreciative.

Jiang Ye's results this time were also beyond her expectations.

She had introduced Jiang Ye to Zhang Jianwu before, thinking that Jiang Ye's ability to enter the top ten would be enough to prove his excellence.

Unexpectedly, they jumped straight into the top two.

This incident also made her proud.

Chen Zilu took a paper bag out of the drawer and said, "Take this and use it to nourish your body when you get back."

Jiang Ye took the paper bag, opened it, and found that there was 30,000 yuan inside.

"Teacher, what are you doing?"

He looked at Chen Zilu with some surprise.

The second-highest poverty relief grant is only 10,000 yuan, and it won't be issued until the senior year of high school.

Thirty thousand yuan? He wasn't even number one, how could he possibly deserve that much?

"I made a bet with Director Zhang."

Chen Zilu chuckled and said, "I bet you'll pass this trial, so don't disappoint me."

Jiang Ye looked surprised.

In other words, was the 30,000 yuan a private "sponsorship" from the teacher?

"Teacher, isn't 30,000 too much? You also need to cultivate yourself." Jiang Ye never accepts help from others for nothing.

Especially when it comes to money, one must be even more cautious.

“I’m a teacher, I don’t need this money.”

Chen Zilu looked at him: "But you're different."

"You need to do your best to improve in the next month to have any hope of passing the trial in a month."

“During this period, you need to consume martial arts ingredients every day to increase your chances of passing the trial,” she said in a clear voice.

Jiang Ye was secretly alarmed.

Hearing what the other party said, the difficulty of this trial might be much higher than he had imagined.

Chen Zilu raised her right leg, revealing a section of her slender, fair leg beneath her skirt.

She said in a calm and unhurried tone:

"There are many kinds of martial arts nutrition supplements. In order to improve as quickly as possible, you need to choose high-quality ones, such as tiger gall and whale eye."

"These expenses are huge, 30,000 yuan, just for your dietary supplements."

"Finally, this money is a loan to you, and you have to pay me back later."

Chen Zilu smiled slightly at Jiang Ye, her little feet swaying gently, looking a bit playful.

Jiang Ye said, "I'll pay you back after the senior year scholarship comes through, or after I earn money from the trials."

"Let's talk about it after you graduate from high school. It's only 30,000 yuan. I don't need that much money right now."

Chen Zilu waved her hand and reiterated that she was not short of money.

Jiang Ye felt somewhat helpless.

How rich is this person? They don't even care about 30,000 yuan?
Could it be that they own a mine?
After a moment of silence, he bowed solemnly and said, "Thank you, teacher."

Jiang Ye knew this perfectly well.

Whether it was the bet Chen Zilu mentioned or the deliberate emphasis on repaying the money, it was all because the other party was concerned about his self-esteem.

Some help is charity.

But some forms of help are truly like holding an umbrella for someone.

Having lived two lives, Jiang Ye was well aware of these things and was naturally even more grateful.

Chen Zilu smiled slightly.

"By the way, Ancheng might not be very safe these days, so try to stay home during the holidays," she suddenly said.

Not very safe?

Jiang Ye's heart skipped a beat. Could it be that it was caused by the 'Shadow Calamity'?

Chen Zilu continued, "If you need anything, just contact me via WeChat. My WeChat ID is czl23060901."

Jiang Ye hesitated for a moment, then said, "Teacher, do you have a phone number? I'll buy a mobile phone to contact you later; cell phones are too expensive."

Chen Zilu glanced at him, took a watch out of the drawer, and said, "You can use my communication watch first; you can contact me through it too."

"it is good."

Now that things had come to this, Jiang Ye didn't stand on ceremony and accepted the watch.

"Teacher, I'm going back now."

"Well, go back."

Chen Zilu waved.

Jiang Ye nodded, turned around and walked out of the office.

However, before leaving the office, he remembered something and looked back at Chen Zilu.

The panel appeared.

When Jiang Ye saw the two lines of text that appeared above Chen Zilu's head, he was immediately startled.

If you've read this far, don't forget to give it a thumbs up and a monthly pass!
