Chapter 25: No one is better than the first in the grade

Or a rhetorical question, what else?

Extremely arrogant.

Lin Zixia was a little skeptical. He had just taken the Chinese language exam, and he had already secured first place. How could he be so confident?

Aren’t you afraid of getting into trouble after making such big promises?

She soon learned the lesson.

The math test in the afternoon was more difficult than she had imagined.

While she was still doing the last multiple-choice question, Lu Xiangye had already turned the page and started doing the big questions.

Lin Zixia paused with the pen in her hand, she calmed herself down, stopped paying attention to the movements around her, and began to calculate seriously.

Math was a fairly standard subject for Lin Zixia. She had a solid foundation, and as long as she could do something, she rarely made mistakes. She wasn't very fast, and she would just check her calculations the first time through, usually without checking them, as she didn't have the time.

By the time she finished the second sub-question of the last major test, the bell had already rung. She put down her pen, but there was still one small question left to answer. She glanced at it and decided she couldn't answer it in a short time, so it wasn't a loss.

She turned her head and saw Lu Xiangye sleeping on the table. When he raised his head to hand in the paper, there were some red marks on his forehead. A few strands of hair on his forehead were sticking up. She didn't know how long he had slept.

Lin Zixia: ...

This was the case when taking the physics and chemistry exams, and also when taking the politics, history and geography exams. Lin Zixia didn't understand.

The pre-school placement test lasted three days and finally came to an end.

Lin Zixia breathed a sigh of relief. After she finished the test, she had an idea in her mind. She didn't fail the test and performed normally. She just didn't know what ranking she would get in No. 1 Middle School.

The results came out the next day after the exam. Class monitor Yang Jin took the report card from Jiang Xu and posted it on the wall at the back of the classroom. Everyone rushed over to take a look, but Lin Zixia sat in his seat and didn't squeeze in.

Wu You squeezed in at the front and turned around and shouted excitedly, "Brother Lu, Brother Lu is first again! First in the class, first in the grade!"

"Brother Lu is awesome!" Li Senmiao's face was filled with enthusiasm, even happier than if he had gotten first place. "Our Brother Lu has never failed!"

Lu Xiangye leaned against the wall with his hands in his pockets, his brows slightly raised, a smile evident on his lips, confident and flamboyant. He readily accepted the piles of compliments, "Of course."

If someone else said this, it would seem arrogant and narcissistic, but in the face of absolute strength, it is just natural.

Lin Zixia looked at Lu Xiangye, feeling an indescribable feeling in his heart.

At this time, a girl came over after looking at the results, and said congratulations to Lu Xiangye with a smile.

The girl seemed to be called Yu Xue. She had performed singing during military training. She was very beautiful and smiled brightly as she looked at Lu Xiangye.

Lu Xiangye just nodded slightly and turned to continue talking to Wu You.

Lin Zixia was just about to get up to check her grades when she heard Lu Xiangye shouting to Wu You, "Look at my deskmate's grades."

Lin Zixia was stunned.

Wu You quickly found Lin Zixia's ranking and turned around to shout, "Little Xia is ranked fourth in her class and eighth in her grade!"

There are a total of seventeen classes in this year's high school class. Classes one to five are parallel classes, classes six to fourteen are experimental classes, and classes fifteen to seventeen are top classes. After the division into arts and sciences, class fifteen will become the top class in arts.

This result was within Lin Zixia's expectations, but it was far from enough.

Each class posted their own class grades, but soon someone found out the top three in the grade.

"The first place in the grade is of course our Brother Lu, the second place is He Yan from Class 16 next door, and the third place is Song Zixin from Class 15."

He Yan and Lin Zixia already knew each other, but she also felt that the name Song Zixin was somewhat familiar, and she didn't know where she had heard it.

The top three students in the grade are distributed in three different top classes, and the school's class division is quite even.

Starting from the first class, teachers of various subjects met with everyone one after another, bringing with them test papers and grades.

The first class was English class. The English teacher was a short old man with a round face. He spoke in a humorous way and asked everyone to call him by his English name, David.

"One of our students scored full marks in English in this exam. Although some students have achieved this in previous years, it is still worth praising."

There was an uproar among the audience. It was not difficult for them to get high scores in English, but getting a perfect score did not allow for any carelessness.

After everyone's appetite was satisfied, the old man smiled and asked, "Who is Lin Zixia?"

Everyone's eyes turned to the last row. Lin Zixia raised her hand. She had a good idea of ​​the objective questions, but she was still a little surprised that she didn't lose any points for the composition.

"You can just be the English class representative, okay?"

Lin Zixia smiled and nodded, "Okay."

She likes English very much, and it is easy for her to learn. She can also get positive feedback. This virtuous cycle has helped her improve her English.

David asked the students in the front row to hand out their papers, and then began to comment on the papers.

Lu Xiangye turned his head slightly, looked at Lin Zixia's perfect score paper, and lowered his voice, "The English class representative is really good."

His voice was smiling and his tone was slightly raised. It was hard to tell whether it was a sincere compliment or a joke.

Lin Zixia curled his lips and retorted, "Not as impressive as being number one in the grade."

Lu Xiangye shrugged and smiled roguely, "It's a little bit off."

Lin Zixia: “???”

This guy really has no sense of humility.

However, he seems to have the capital to be arrogant.

In the next few classes, Lin Zixia and Lu Xiangye, who were sitting in the last row, stole the show.

Lin Zixia also ranked first in the class in Chinese and was praised by the Chinese teacher. When the Chinese teacher asked her if she would like to be the Chinese class representative, Lin Zixia was stunned. Should she just say that she was already the English class representative?

Lu Xiangye, who was standing by, smiled and spoke lazily, "Teacher Cheng, you're late. The English teacher has already made the appointment."

What does it mean to have been decided?

The Chinese teacher was Cheng Jiahua, a young, friendly woman. Upon hearing this, she smiled and said, "It seems our Zixia is very popular. I'm late."

"Then Lu Xiangye, why don't you be the Chinese class representative?"

As soon as Teacher Cheng finished speaking, there was a burst of laughter in the back row of the classroom.

"Teacher Cheng, if you let him be the class representative, then it's the same as if he doesn't exist at all." Li Senmiao complained.

During his three years in junior high school, Lu Xiangye was neither a class committee member nor a class representative. How could a person like him do such a job as collecting homework and handing out papers?

He won't get involved in anything that's troublesome.

Cheng Jiahua crossed his arms and looked at Li Senmiao, "Then you take the position. It's happily decided."

Li Senmiao:??? There’s such a good thing?

However, he still asked weakly, "Teacher Cheng, do you know my name?"

Cheng Jiahua smiled and said, "I don't know, but I'll know soon."

Li Senmiao didn't know whether to cry or laugh as he was given the unexpected title of Chinese class representative.

Wu You raised his hand and patted his shoulder, "It's okay, it's okay, it's not bad to be the class representative for free."
