Chapter 57 Reactions from all parties
Yinxian No.1 Middle School, Academic Affairs Office.

Although the students have already finished their exams and been on holiday for two days, the leaders of the Academic Affairs Office and the senior grade group are still handling the follow-up work.

We are also waiting for the city to release the joint exam results and announce them to all homeroom teachers so that the senior high school students can know as soon as possible.

Some people suggested that the results be announced after the New Year so that students could have a proper holiday, but this suggestion was directly rejected by Qian Kang, the director of the Academic Affairs Office.

In his own words, 'Those who do well on the exam will definitely have a good New Year; those who don't do well, how can they even face celebrating the New Year?'

Because the exam papers were sealed directly after the exam and sent to the county education bureau for scanning and then to the city for grading.

Therefore, even the school's leaders and teachers could not see the students' exam papers, and naturally did not know how well they did.

As a joint examination that the city attaches great importance to, its results naturally attract everyone's attention.

To some extent, this joint exam can almost reveal the college entrance examination results of various universities, so the leaders of No. 1 High School are somewhat nervous.

"It's almost 12 o'clock, we should be able to log into the system to check by now, right?" Han Li, the head of the senior grade group, crossed her arms and looked somewhat serious.

She was undoubtedly the most nervous, because as the head of the senior year, she bore the main responsibility for whether the college entrance examination pass rate was high or low this year.

"Refresh it again," Qian Kang, the director of the Academic Affairs Office, urged Zhang Xin, the deputy director, who was sitting in front of the computer.

"You can enter now!" Zhang Xin refreshed his computer screen and found that the city's education system interface had added a joint examination score inquiry portal.

The five or six people in the office perked up and gathered around the computer, including Zhu Zejiang, who had been standing in the corner.

The reason we can only check now is because this broken system is too prone to crashing, so the Municipal Education Bureau chose to open it in batches.

Because the grades are arranged uniformly according to rank, it is necessary to export all the grades of all students in the school according to the school code before we can view them.

This process may take four or five minutes. While waiting, you can check individual scores, but it's a question of whose score to check first.

"Let's take a look at Yu Sheng first. He's been working very hard lately, and his grades should be improving," Qian Kang said directly to Zhang Xin.

Yu Sheng's class 2 is his homeroom teacher, and he has always thought highly of Yu Sheng and is very dissatisfied with Jiang Xun's frequent truancy and absences.

Han Li and Zhu Zejiang didn't say much.

One of them was the homeroom teacher of Class 1, and the other was the homeroom teacher of Class 3. Naturally, they wanted to see the students in their own classes first.

But there's nothing we can do; after all, he's the director.

Zhang Xin typed in Yu Sheng's name and searched for three people with the same name. The one ranked highest was Yinxian No.1 Middle School.

"662! Ranked 7th!"

When the results were announced, Zhang Xin exclaimed in surprise, and Qian Kang, standing behind him, smiled with excitement.

"Quick, open and check the scores for each subject!" He rushed to the computer, his chubby cheeks flushed with excitement.

Ranked 7th in the city, this score and ranking would place you in the top 30 in the province if it were the college entrance examination.

At this time, Yu Sheng's scores for each subject have also been released: Chinese 128, Mathematics 139, English 130, and Science 265.

"Wow, to score 139 and 265 on such difficult math and science exams is really impressive."

Zhang Xin sincerely praised Yu Sheng, whose math score showed he was 5th in the city and his science score was 6th in the city.

"Haha, this kid really lived up to expectations this time." Qian Kang laughed heartily, then glanced meaningfully at Zhu Zejiang and said:

"So in addition to their own efforts, we also need to be strict with them. He used to be too undisciplined."

Zhu Zejiang had nothing to say. He was indeed very lenient with Jiang Xun, giving the kid a lot of freedom.

But he wasn't sure if Jiang Xun would do well in this joint entrance exam.

"Let's see how Jiang Xun fares. Let's see if he can beat Yu Sheng this time." Qian Kang patted Zhang Xin on the shoulder with a smile.

In his opinion, given how difficult the math and science exams were, it was already quite remarkable that Yu Sheng could score so high.

It is virtually impossible for Jiang Xun to surpass Yu Sheng.

But Jiang Xun had won first place several times in a row, so it wouldn't be right not to check on him, and Han Li next to him had no objection.

When Zhang Xin typed in the name Jiang Xun and clicked search, only one name appeared.

Zhu Zejiang stood quite far away and seemed unconcerned, while Qian Kang genuinely didn't care much, as long as he didn't exceed Yu Sheng's level.

"!!!" Standing behind Zhang Xin, Han Li immediately looked at Jiang Xun's score, and then her eyes widened like saucers.

"Holy crap!" Zhang Xin exclaimed in excitement, and yes, teachers also swear when they're excited.

"What's going on?" Qian Kang frowned slightly, somewhat dissatisfied with Zhang Xin's reaction.

Zhu Zejiang stepped forward, glanced at the computer screen, and then smiled with relief.

This kid certainly didn't disappoint me.

At this moment, Qian Kang also saw Jiang Xun's name on the screen, followed by his score and ranking.

687 points! Number one in the city!

"This, this, this... could it be a case of the same name?" Qian Kang was speechless, his words stammering. But he quickly realized that there was no other Jiang Xun among all the senior high school students in the city.

So he snatched the mouse from Zhang Xin's hand and opened the detailed score page.

Chinese, 132!

English, 131!

Science combined score: 274! (3rd in the city)

(Physics 91, Chemistry 90, Biology 93)

Math, 150!!! (1st in the city)

The Academic Affairs Office fell silent, with only Qian Kang's heavy breathing remaining.

After a full half minute, he suddenly took a deep breath, and a smile returned to his face, even an excited smile.

"Great! Our school got first place in the city! That's wonderful! I must tell the principal right away!"

As he spoke, he immediately took out his phone and started dialing. The speed of his change in attitude amazed Zhu Zejiang and the others.

This awareness and reaction are truly worthy of a director.

……

About half an hour later, the results of this joint examination spread to No. 1 Middle School and No. 2 Middle School.

At first, it was only within the senior high school group, but it quickly spread to the junior and sophomore groups, and many students even forwarded it to QQ Space.

It was at this time that Jiang Xun, who was far away in his rural hometown, learned about his results.

When Zhao Dongyang and the others first heard Jiang Zheng's excited shouts, their first reaction was disbelief.

Jiangxun? Number one in the city? You're kidding me.

Even though Jiang Zheng had shown them the results table in the group chat, they still insisted that the table was most likely fake.

It wasn't until Jiang Xun picked up her phone, which was charging next door, and saw several missed calls that she called her homeroom teacher, Zhu Zejiang.

"Jiang Xun, Principal Wang asked me for your phone number. Check if you have any missed calls, and if so, call him back as soon as possible."

"Even if you don't have one, give him a call. I've already sent you his number via text message."

"Also, you did well on this test, keep it up."

As soon as Zhu Zejiang answered the call, he rattled off a bunch of things before hanging up immediately, which was very much in line with his decisive and efficient personality.

At this moment, everyone around was holding their breath and staring intently at Jiang Xun, so they could naturally hear the voice on the phone.

Jiang Xun glanced at the missed calls and noticed that one of the numbers was the same as the message Lao Zhu had sent, so he casually called back.

"Hello? Who is this?" A dignified voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Principal Wang? This is Jiang Xun."

"Oh, Xiao Jiang." Upon hearing that it was Jiang Xun, the voice on the phone instantly turned warm and joyful.

"You're amazing! Number one in the whole city! You've finally given me some satisfaction. Let's see if my old classmates still dare to swagger in front of me, haha!"

"It's all thanks to the principal's cultivation and guidance," Jiang Xun said with a smile.

"You little rascal, still trying to pull that on me?" Wang Qi chuckled and scolded on the other end of the phone, sounding genuinely in a good mood. He continued:

"I'm calling you for no other reason than to say hello to your family and wish you a Happy New Year."

"Happy New Year to you, Principal! I wish you and your family good health and all the best."

Jiang Xun chatted with Principal Wang Qi for a few minutes before hanging up the phone.

Meanwhile, the Jiang family members inside the house were all very excited. This was the number one in the entire city! Only a person like this could be produced by the ancestral graves emitting auspicious smoke.

Although the villagers had mixed feelings, they still offered their congratulations verbally, though their words were rather crude. In short, they said that the Jiang family had produced an impressive young man.

Perhaps only Zhao Dongyang and Jiang Yuchang were not happy at all, only embarrassed.

Zhao Dongyang, in particular, wished he could disappear into a crack in the ground.

The accusations and lectures he had given Jiang Xun earlier felt like a heavy slap across his long, narrow face.

Zhao Ruoyu, who had been silent all along, looked seriously at her relatively unfamiliar cousin for the first time.

First in the city? 150 in math?

How was this tested?

What a monster!
