Chapter 54: Beloved Disciple

"It's over! Why is this monthly exam so difficult? Which pervert came up with the last two math questions? I didn't even answer them when I asked!"

Zheng Fa was reading a book while listening to Wang Chen, who was sitting at the table behind him, wailing with his head in his hands.

He looked around the classroom. The atmosphere in the class was a bit depressing after the monthly exam. Many people looked unhappy, as if they all felt that they had not done well in the exam.

"Zheng Fa, how did you do in the exam?" Wang Chen poked Zheng Fa's arm and asked.

"I don't know. There is no right answer."

It is Zheng Fa's habit to check the answers after taking the test.

But he thought he had done well in the exam.

The test paper was a bit difficult, but he felt that he would do better than before - on the one hand, the math test that made Wang Chen wail in pain, after being tutored by Old Man Bai and Tang Lingwu, he felt that it was of average difficulty.

He even had time to check the paper twice after finishing it.

On the other hand, after mastering the "Spirit Crane Body", he felt that his memory and reaction abilities had reached a new level, and there was a high probability that other subjects would also improve.

Wang Chen knew his habit, nodded, and suddenly said: "Zheng Fa, you are in trouble this time, Lao Chen will definitely come looking for you."

"Looking for me?"

"He was able to endure for three days, which is a record."

"Record-breaking?"

"Anyone who is thinking about Tang Lingwu will be beaten up within two days. If it weren't for the monthly exam, he would have called you to his office a long time ago."

Wang Chen said with certainty. He always acted very professionally about such matters.

Zheng Fa shook his head. He and Tang Lingwu could only meet at school, and he had never thought of hiding anything from anyone.

If Lao Chen saw it, he saw it.

As for physical contact... Zheng Fa really didn't have any other thoughts.

Whether or not "Spiritual Crane Body" can be practiced by people in modern times is very important to him, as it concerns the value of what he learned in the Xuanwei Realm in the modern world.

Judging from the experiments on Tang Lingwu, his Qi can help Tang Lingwu practice the "Spirit Crane Body", or in other words, half of the "Spirit Crane Body" - modern conditions determine that Tang Lingwu cannot sense the strange power in the void, but similar changes will occur in his body.

In terms of cultivation speed, Zheng Fa's Qi is weak after all and cannot replace the environment of the entire Xuanwei Realm.

Tang Lingwu used his Qi to practice, but his speed was much slower than when he was in the Xuanwei Realm. He might have practiced dozens or hundreds of times, but it was still not as good as Zheng Fa's practice once in the Xuanwei Realm.

However, the ability to help people achieve success in their practice is Zheng Fa’s unique advantage in this world.

The modern world is far from a place where one can do whatever he wants just by practicing a little bit of "Spirit Crane Body". Using the knowledge in the Xuanwei Realm to attract people like Old Man Bai and learn the knowledge he needs is the way for him to maximize his advantage of being able to travel between the two worlds.

"If Old Chen comes to you, just admit your mistake and say that you will never date Tang Lingwu again." Wang Chen was still giving advice.

"Tang Lingwu and I are not in a relationship." Zheng Fa corrected.

"You scumbag, I can't even listen to you even though I'm your brother. You've already taken action and you still don't want to take responsibility?" Wang Chen's eyes showed contempt: "What's more, Old Chen saw it clearly!"

Falling in love with Tang Lingwu? Zheng Fa believes that he has no such intention.

As for Tang Lingwu...

If the way she looked at me could be called the beginning of love, then the way she looked at milk tea could be called the enduring love.

In Tang Lingwu's eyes, she should be Zheng·Milk tea supply package·Beauty expert·Not very smart·Method.

Zheng Fa thought he was upright and had nothing to fear from his own shadow.

Wang Chen saw that he was not panicked at all, and understood that he was a dead pig that was not afraid of boiling water: "Let me tell you, do you think Lao Chen is tolerating you by not looking for you? I bet you that he is waiting for the monthly exam results to come out. If you don't do well in the exam, he can settle all the old and new accounts at once. The longer you delay, the bigger the punishment he will give you!"

…

The day after the joint monthly exam, the rumor that the results were already out spread in the class.

"Have you heard? Tang Lingwu should be number one in our class again."

Wang Chen and Zheng Fa were talking about the gossip they had heard.

"Hasn't she always been number one?" Zheng Fa was not surprised.

"You don't understand. She ranked first again this time. She is Lao Chen's favorite disciple and his lifeblood. Do you think you can get away with getting your hands on his treasure? He will scold you to death!"

Zheng Fa glanced at Wang Chen and frowned slightly: "I always feel that you seem to be looking forward to Lao Chen scolding me?"

"I treat you as a brother." Wang Chen said sincerely.

"Um?"

"I just want you to get scolded." Wang Chen gritted his teeth and said, "But the other boys want to kill you."

Just as the two were chatting, a series of footsteps were heard outside the classroom, including the voice of Lao Chen.

Wang Chen hurriedly sat back in his seat, picked up the book and pretended to read it.

It was indeed Lao Chen, but Lao Chen did not come alone. There were two or three middle-aged men following him.

The middle-aged man walking in the middle of the crowd looked very familiar. He often sat in the middle of the podium during student meetings.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Several people had happy faces.

"Who is the student Tang Lingwu who got first place in the exam this time?"

The middle-aged man asked.

“Tang Lingwu!” Old Chen called out to her. Tang Lingwu walked out of the classroom and Old Chen pulled her to his side: “Principal, she is Tang Lingwu.”

The principal didn't seem to expect that Tang Lingwu had such an outstanding face. He couldn't help but take a few more glances at her: "I've heard that there is a pretty girl in your class with good grades, but I didn't expect she was so pretty."

As Lao Chen's most commonly used military medal, Tang Lingwu had just the right amount of shyness on her face, and seemed to be accustomed to being shown off by Lao Chen.

The principal didn't need to wait for her answer. He just nodded and said with a smile, "This time you got the first place in our school's grade, and also the first place among the senior students of several schools! You have made Qingshui Middle School proud!"

After hearing this, Zheng Fa and the others understood why these people came over specifically to see Tang Lingwu.

Being first in the grade is not important, what is important is to trample the sister schools underfoot! The principal praised Tang Lingwu and seemed to remember something: "I see there is another person named Zheng Fa on the top ten list this time? Is he also from your class?"

Zheng Fa saw Lao Chen waving at him, so he stood up and walked towards the few people. Lao Chen's smile at him was particularly warm today.

“This is Zheng Fa.”

The principal looked at him and nodded, seeming a little puzzled: "Haven't you seen this name in the top ten list before?"

"Yes, although this student's academic performance was not very good when he first entered the school, he has always studied very hard and has been making progress," Old Chen praised.

"Oh?" the principal asked with great interest, "If you have made great progress, you must have mastered some study methods. Zheng Fa, how do you usually study?"

Zheng Fa looked at Tang Lingwu, and cold sweat suddenly appeared on Old Chen's bald head: "This... Principal, he and Tang Lingwu usually learn from each other and promote each other."

"Good at learning from students with good grades? That's a good idea! His situation is more suitable for ordinary students to learn from. How about letting Zheng Fa give a talk to all the teachers and students in the school at the Monday meeting?"

"This is not popular... I mean, this method is a bit strange, and others probably can't learn it." Old Chen hesitated.

The principal was a little disappointed, but he didn't force Lao Chen here. He just encouraged him: "Then you still have to urge them to continue to unite and help each other, keep up the good work, and make progress together!"

Old Chen's smile suddenly had a hint of toothache.

It seems that he doesn't want to urge.

Inside the classroom, Wang Chen looked a little dull, and said to his deskmate blankly, "Why do I feel like Zheng Fa has also been promoted to Lao Chen's favorite disciple?"

"No need to feel anything, look at Lao Chen, how sweet his smile is?"

"You're not going to scold him anymore?"

"Scold? He's still praising me! How corny."
