Li Huili paused for a few seconds, then her smile widened, "Let's congratulate Ruan Mingzhuo and Li Wenhe..."

Before he could finish speaking, his voice was drowned out by applause.

Xie Xiao and her classmates clapped enthusiastically, wanting Ruan Mingzhuo to feel their enthusiasm!

No wonder the progress was described as "remarkable"; the last place certainly has a lot of room for improvement!

I just don't know how many places Ruan Mingzhuo improved, or whether he made it into the top 30 in his class.

Li Huili's words were interrupted several times, and she had to continue raising her hand to lower her voice.

"First of all, congratulations to Li Wenhe for achieving the sixth place in the grade and the second place in the class!"

Everyone turned to look at Li Wenhe in surprise, their pupils wide with shock. This person was so powerful?

Good heavens, how come I never noticed this before!

Xie Xiao knew immediately that she had no chance of being in the top two in the class. Damn it, this person suddenly appeared out of nowhere, is he going to squeeze her out of the top two again?

But then again, who is so amazing that they not only got first place in the class, but also made it into the top five in the grade?

Are there any people in their class that amazing?

As Xie Xiao made his guesses, he scanned the class officers one by one. These people were all strong contenders for the top five in the class, and each of them was quite capable...

The class leaders also cast suspicious glances at Xie Xiao and the others.

Li Wenhe smiled and accepted everyone's applause, but two seconds later, he quickly realized what was happening and couldn't help but frown.

I ranked sixth in the grade, but I'm only second in my class? How is that possible? The class's previous top student could only manage to get tenth in the grade, and they weren't even sure they could hold onto that spot.

Out of the corner of his eye, he saw Mingzhuo still drinking yogurt, and a bad feeling suddenly came to his mind.

Sure enough, the next second, Li Huili's voice rang out.

"Now, let's congratulate Ruan Mingzhuo on achieving the highest score in the class and the highest score in the grade, with a total score of 747! Let's give him a round of applause!"

Li Huili smiled so wide her mouth almost reached her ears, and she took the lead in clapping!

Everyone reflexively clapped along at first, then realized something was wrong. "Teacher, what are you saying? I can't understand what you're saying when you put the words together!"

Everyone's expressions froze, and they stiffly turned their necks to look at the back of the classroom.

Mingzhuo put down the yogurt cup, thinking, "It can't be that bad, can it? I just secretly took a sip of yogurt. It shouldn't be condemned by so many people."

She thought for a moment, "Well, I'm still growing and need to supplement my nutrition."

Xie Xiaofei quickly turned her head back, covered her face with her book, and oh my god, she didn't hear wrong, Ruan Mingzhuo was the first in the class and the first in the grade!

She was utterly shocked, and all the little details she had previously overlooked came flooding back to her mind.

No wonder Ruan Mingzhuo comforted her during the exam, telling her not to be nervous. She thought the academically challenged student was just easygoing, but it turns out she was the one who was easygoing!

They really don't need to be nervous, they're a big shot!

The thought of how she had organized her classmates to comfort Ruan Mingzhuo on Friday after the exam filled her with shame, making her want to disappear into a hole in the ground.

After the initial shock, the whole class burst into applause.

747 points! My God, is this even possible for a human to achieve? The highest score ever recorded by the top student in the grade was 720.

This score completely convinced everyone, and they felt proud of it. Finally, their class also won first place in the grade!

After the applause stopped, Li Wenhe turned around and said with mixed feelings, "Boss, I didn't know you were so amazing."

He thought he had victory in the bag this time, but in the face of absolute strength, he was still crushed in a very ugly way.

Mingzhuo: "I already told you I'm very capable, but you didn't believe me. What can I do?"

As the calmest kid in the class, Pei Di turned around and gave Li Wen a disdainful look, "If the boss says she's amazing, then she must be amazing. What are you questioning?"

When he heard Li Wenhe's score, he guessed that Mingzhuo must have been the first place winner.

Otherwise, how could Mingzhuo be the master and the boss, and Li Wenhe be the apprentice and the younger brother?

Li Wenhe glanced at Pei Di with mixed feelings. How could this person still have the mind to talk about himself?

When all the class's grades came out, Pei Di let out a miserable scream, "How come I'm still second to last in the class?"

It turns out that Mingzhuo was last in the class, Peidi was second to last, and Li Wenhe was third to last. The three academic underachievers had very stable grades.

Now that two of the three musketeers have made great strides and become first and second place, Pei Di thought to himself with delight that he could surely improve a few places as well.

As it turned out, he still ended up in a dismal second to last place!

Pei Di, who was usually carefree, finally felt a sense of crisis. He kept checking the answers on Ming Zhuo's test paper, and the more he checked, the more tears streamed down his face.

Because I can't understand many of the answers!

Mingzhuo sighed: "Alright, don't be sad, I'll help you rank up."

Li Wenhe said calmly, "That might be a bit difficult; his foundation is too weak."

He and Mingzhuo had been hiding their true abilities, but Pei Di always ranked second to last in the exams because of his own hard work!

This is why, after grading the papers on Sunday, the homeroom teacher, Li Huili, called him to ask if he had deliberately manipulated his scores before. After hearing that he had, she accepted his grades without further suspicion.

I believe the school teachers have the same question about Mingzhuo. As long as Mingzhuo says that he controlled his grades in the past, no one will doubt him.

Do you think anyone can get the top score in the grade? Even cheating wouldn't get you such an incredible score.

A true bottom-ranked student cannot improve their grades to this level in a short period of time.

Just like Pei Di's current situation, he ranked second to last in the exam based on his own ability, so it's really difficult for him to improve.

Pei Di knew her own limitations and felt even more like crying.

"Don't scare the child." Mingzhuo said, not taking it seriously, and comforted the dejected Pei Di. "Didn't you become my disciple and follow me to cultivate? Let me put it this way, animals can gain intelligence when they reach a certain level of cultivation, and humans are the same."

She wasn't just saying that for show; she genuinely had a solution.

Pei Di perked up immediately upon hearing this, believing Ming Zhuo's words!

At noon, Mingzhuo led the two to the rooftop and held a simple apprenticeship ceremony.

Pei Di was very honest; he knelt down and kowtowed three times, which stunned Ming Zhuo.

Li Wenhe's lips twitched, but he simply bowed slightly to Mingzhuo and called him "Master".

“You don’t need to call me Master, that’s too strange. Just keep calling me Boss,” Mingzhuo said. “I don’t have any rules, I just remember one thing: I won’t offend others unless they offend me, but if they do, I’ll definitely beat them back!”

Xie Xiao, who had come specifically to see him: "..."

Good heavens, are you joining some kind of cult? Why are you making it sound so scary?

Her impression of Ruan Mingzhuo kept fluctuating between being very kind and gentle and being a brutal school bully.

I'm almost driven to the brink of schizophrenia by this. Which one is the real Ruan Mingzhuo?
