This top-tier academic genius

After returning from Fuzhou, we are still on holiday. Senior high school students have a total of five days off.

Lin Yan hasn't gone out much these past few days, staying home to study, and streaming her studies online in the evenings.

After the holiday, the monthly exam will be coming up, and he needs to use these two days to quickly memorize the chemistry and biology content.

After the memory attribute reaches 0.2, memory ability does indeed improve significantly.

After using all the focus and memory experience cards, the learning results were quite obvious. Lin Yan believed that passing the chemistry and biology courses would be no problem at all.

I glanced at the system panel

Lin Yan nodded with satisfaction. Suddenly, he noticed that his physical fitness level seemed to have dropped by 0.1. It used to be 7.5, but now it was 7.4.

I never imagined that my physical fitness could decline.

He guessed that it was probably because he had been studying hard and neglecting exercise during this period.

It seems that learning can't be done by just studying; proper exercise is also necessary. A healthy body is the foundation for learning.

He quietly added a new task for himself: to exercise for no less than half an hour every day.

On October 6th, while the first and second year high school students were still on holiday, the third year high school students ushered in their first monthly exam of the semester.

Some students were anxious, worried about not doing well on the exam; others were completely indifferent, not afraid of monthly exams or even the college entrance exam, and would still play around as usual.

For example, Chen Bin has already decided that after graduating from high school, he will follow his father to learn how to do business and run a supermarket.

His thinking was simple: whether he studied well or not wasn't that important, and not getting into university wouldn't stop him from inheriting the family business.

According to him, who says you have to be a college student to run a successful business? His father only graduated from junior high school, but he still runs more than ten chain supermarkets, while those college students are working for his family.

These words seem a bit off, yet they're not wrong either!

Chen Bin then put his arm around Lin Yan's shoulder and said smugly, "Little Yan, if you like studying, study hard and get into university. When you graduate, I'll ask my dad to reserve a supervisor position for you at the supermarket."

Lin Yan: "..."

I would really appreciate it!

The two-day monthly exam passed quickly. There were three subjects each day. At this time, the monthly exams for physics, chemistry, and biology were still separate subject exams, not a combined science exam.

For Lin Yan, the monthly exam papers were not difficult, especially math and physics, which he finished in half an hour. He should have no problem passing the other subjects.

After the monthly exams, the National Day holiday officially ended, and everything returned to normal.

"The monthly exam results are out! The monthly exam results are out!"

During lunch break, a classmate called out softly, instantly waking up those students who were concerned about their grades.

The monthly exam results at No. 1 Middle School are always released very quickly. Teachers work overtime to grade them on the same day the exam is over, and the overall ranking is posted on a large red poster the next day.

Upon hearing that the results were out, many students got up and went to check the bulletin board.

Zhang Yang was one of them, and he cared more about his monthly exam results than ever before.

He felt he performed exceptionally well in this monthly exam and made a bet with others that he could rank among the top 30 in the entire school.

A group of students were gathered in front of the poster board. They were all students who usually had good grades, because good students care a lot about their exam scores.

Zhang Yang looked at the poster. The top scorer in science was 692 points. It was the same familiar name: Zeng Muyang from Class 8, the boy who had topped the list for years.

The top twelve were all students from Class 8, and it wasn't until the thirteenth place that names from other classes started to appear.

With a quick glance, Zhang Yang finally saw his own name.

[Ranked 31st, Zhang Yang, Class 2, Grade 12, 613 points]

"Damn, I was so close, so close to making it into the top 30."

At that moment, he felt terrible. He quickly checked how many points he was behind the person in front of him: 614 points, just one point short.

However, when they saw the name of the 30th person, Bengbu was instantly stunned.

[Ranked 30th, Lin Yan, Class 2, Grade 12, 614 points]

"How could it be him? How is this possible?"

Zhang Yang never expected that Lin Yan, the student at the bottom of the class, would be one point ahead of him, and the student he hated the most at this stage.

At this moment, he felt even worse, worse than if he had swallowed a fly.

"Impossible! How could this be? He couldn't possibly get such a high score. He must have made a mistake. Yes, he made a mistake!"

There had been times when posters were wrong before, and Zhang Yang was certain that this time it was also a mistake.

Nearby, several girls from Class 2 of Senior Three were also looking at the poster.

Liu Qing pointed at the poster in surprise and said, "Hey, Meng Xue, look! Lin Yan from our class actually made it into the top 30! How did he get so many points this time?"

Zhang Yang scoffed, "Tch, the poster must be wrong. How could he possibly get such a high score? The poster for the last monthly exam was wrong too. If you don't believe me, come back this afternoon and it'll definitely be corrected."

Liu Qing: "Is that so?"

Meng Xue, who was standing next to her, didn't say anything because she thought it might be true.

The first class in the afternoon was Chinese class taught by our homeroom teacher, Ms. Li.

After the school bell rang, Li Shuhua walked in carrying her textbooks and exam papers.

Li Shuhua slammed her textbooks and test papers on the table, and said with a pained expression, "The results of this monthly exam are out, and I'm sure you all know them by now. Some of you are really worrying me; your grades have dropped drastically, your decline is too severe. Students, you're in your final year of high school, wake up! You can't keep playing around. I'll call on some of you here; think about it carefully."

After saying that, he changed the subject.

"Of course, some students have made great progress this time. I want to give them a special commendation..."

As she spoke, Li Shuhua glanced at Zhang Yang.

Zhang Yang immediately understood: the teacher was talking about him.

His grades have indeed improved this time.

"Zhang Yang, you scored 613 points this time, ranking 31st in the grade. That's more than 40 points higher than the last monthly exam, and your ranking improved by more than 20 places. That's great! Keep up the good work!"

"Thank you, teacher. I will definitely try my best to maintain this and strive to improve by ten places next time." Hearing the homeroom teacher's praise, Zhang Yang stood up and said this in a seemingly modest manner, but the expression on his face could not hide his pride.

"Very good, Zhang Yang, sit down."

"Thank you, teacher."

As Zhang Yang sat down, he glanced around, observing whether his classmates were paying attention to him.

When he realized that all his classmates were looking at him, he straightened his back even more.

Li Shuhua continued, "There's another student I must especially praise. His progress has broken the school record. At the end of last semester, his total score was less than 200 points, but this time, he scored 614 points, an improvement of 415 points, jumping from the bottom of the class to the top 30 in the grade. That student is Lin Yan!"
