"Memorizing vocabulary?"

An Zhengzheng asked doubtfully, "Can you finish early after memorizing the words?"

That's really strange.

Senior Sister Wen Yu said with distress, "Yes! This is really going to torture this academically challenged student to death."

She glanced at An Zhengzheng again, recalling how An Zhengzheng was so energetic in her career yet didn't neglect her cultivation, and thought that she must have been a top student in her past life.

After all, on the same Qilin Mountain, he only wanted to lie down and collect rent. Even if he helped female cultivators, he would only do so at a low price, so that they would have a place to stay.

But An Zhengzheng made an even bigger move. The 20% of the profits from the Hundred Women Pavilion that she now received far exceeded her expectations, and it didn't delay those poor female cultivators.

She asked An Zhengzheng, "Do you have any methods for memorizing vocabulary?"

An Zhengzheng shook her head: "I haven't memorized any words."

Wen Yu looked surprised. An Zhengzheng looked like a cultured and refined person, not a dropout.

Seeing Wen Yu's confusion, An Zhengzheng said, "I had a private tutor who taught me English when I was a child."

"...Okay. But what about the junior high and high school exams? What about the college entrance exam?"

An Zhengzheng truthfully replied, "I went to an international school with foreign teachers. As for the college entrance exam... it wasn't necessary. I did my undergraduate studies abroad."

Wen Yu sighed silently.

She was too hasty.

Can I see your vocabulary list?

"promise."

Wen Yu casually recited the incantation, and a book fell out of the treasure bag.

She said somewhat guiltily, "I tried, but I couldn't finish memorizing it. In the end, I still had to squat for an hour, so I gave up."

An Zhengzheng flipped through it. Many English words have multiple meanings, but this book only uses one or two.

"What's wrong?" Wen Yu asked, a little nervously, seeing An Zhengzheng's furrowed brows.

An Zhengzheng said, "It's nothing, it just reminded me of something from a long time ago."

"Back then, I was still in high school. There was a top student in the class next door who had won first place in the math Olympiad. He was a top student who was recruited from No. 1 High School... Never mind, I won't say anything more."

"No!" Wen Yu had been bored for so long, and finally had something to gossip about, so she quickly said to An Zhengzheng, "Keep the music playing, keep the dancing, I want to hear more!"

“…Alright then.” An Zhengzheng shook her head, her gaze fixed intently on the distance.

She said in a low voice, "After I lost to him in a math Olympiad competition, I couldn't help but pay attention to him, and he seemed to have noticed my feelings for him."

Wen Yu was startled by these words. So An Zhengzheng also had a past. Could it be that she cultivated the Path of Ruthlessness because of her past experiences?

Wen Yu became serious and immediately perked up her ears to listen to what would happen next.

An Zhengzheng continued, "After he transferred to our school, he came over specifically to tell me that there was something he wanted to say to me in the function graph we were going to learn about in the next math class. So I listened very carefully to the whole math class."

An Zhengzheng's eyes were filled with resentment: "But I didn't expect that after math class, the first thing he did when he saw me was to say something smug..."

"Can you see the difference between us? Stop daydreaming!"

Wen Yu frowned. This boy was a bit arrogant.

An Zhengzheng sighed: "From then on, I suffered a great psychological trauma and never touched the Olympiad math again."

As An Zhengzheng finished speaking, Wen Yu felt that something was not quite right.

But she couldn't quite put her finger on what felt off.

An Zhengzheng continued, "So, did you remember that?"

"Remember what?"

An Zhengzheng pointed to one of the words in the book, her tone calm and collected.

"after" means after something.

"math, mathematics."

"Aftermath trauma."

Wen Yu: "..."

It stopped abruptly.

Wait a minute!

So...did she just study?

She always felt that knowledge had entered her mind in a very despicable way.

She asked An Zhengzheng incredulously, "So the gossip you just told me..." was fake?

"I was just kidding you!" An Zhengzheng laughed. "I had forgotten that I had never participated in the Mathematical Olympiad."

Wen Yu looked at her in horror: "You..."

"So, did you remember that?"

"Remember what?"

“Forgot, wang-le, wangle, to deceive.”

"..." Wen Yu felt like she was starting to grow a brain.

When An Yirou led Song Juan and Su Ying out of the magic array, Senior Sister Wen Yu, who had been squatting in a horse stance, had already left.

"How strange. I read on the jade slip that Senior Sister Wen Yu waited outside the Weaponry Sect and Pill Sect for an hour each, but our assessment hasn't even been going on for an hour yet..."

Song Juan was very surprised.

An Yirou was also puzzled: "Perhaps Senior Sister has some other ideas."

They had very little contact with Senior Sister Wen Yu; in fact, they had almost no contact at all.

All I know is that An Zhengzheng said one day that he had taken over Qilin Mountain, and that was it; Senior Sister Wen Yu never even showed up.

Su Ying said with concern, "Senior Sister Wen Yu has been cultivating the Path of Ruthlessness for almost a thousand years, and now she's gone mad like this..."

"Are you worried that Sister Zhengzheng will also go insane in the future?"

Song Juan immediately understood Su Ying's concerns.

After all, Senior Sister Wen Yu was the only female cultivator who practiced the Path of Ruthlessness.

Her behavior has become too outrageous. Some people on the jade slip say that she often talks to herself, cursing something, and crying and wailing.

"I heard before that Senior Sister Wen Yu went door to door, sang a song for people, and then ran away..."

There are many victims.

Normally, there are always arguments on any topic in the forum, but when it comes to Senior Sister Wen Yu, everyone speaks with one voice—

If you encounter Wen Yu, run if you can. If you can't escape, pretend to be blind.

But if one day you really get entangled with Senior Sister Wen Yu, don't be afraid, because you'll receive compensation from her at your doorstep the next day.

And this compensation is often very valuable.

Some new disciples are always eager to try, but they usually give up the idea after dying in front of everyone.

"Our results are in."

An Yirou was very happy. She pointed to the jade slip and said, "Our performance in the Fu Sect is actually among the top ten."

Song Juan's eyes widened as she looked at the jade slip: "I'm eighth! Eighth place!"

This was something I never dared to dream of before, and I have to thank the Hundred Women Pavilion for the half-price pills.

He only needed to work at the end of the month and could focus on cultivation at Siyue Gate during the rest of the year.

Su Ying said softly, "It's not just us."

She browsed through the forum and saw the real-time updates of the various sects' results: "Although they haven't been fully announced yet, the female cultivators' results have improved significantly."

The emergence of the Hundred Women's Pavilion has provided many female cultivators with access to low-priced pills, significantly boosting their enthusiasm.
