"Overall, our class's results this time were quite good." The homeroom teacher walked into the classroom with a smile.
Pan Yang propped his head up, feeling a little dazed.
"It's great that ten students from our class made it into the top fifty in the grade this time. The first place is Lin Panyang, who got full marks except for losing some points in Chinese and English composition."
"!" How is that possible!
"Teacher! I don't accept this!" A girl raised her hand; she was Wang Jie, who used to be the top student in the class.
"Teacher, he was always at the bottom of the class before, how could he have gotten first place! He must have copied the answers."
The homeroom teacher said earnestly, "This set of questions was created by several of us teachers, and it has been kept in the grade director's office except on the day of the exam, so it was impossible for it to be discovered."
"But teacher, can you believe it? I can accept that the top five surpass me, but Lin Panyang is impossible!"
Unable to sleep because of the noise: "Why can't I? Just because I couldn't before doesn't mean I can't now. You can't generalize like that."
"You've only been here for a month, and you were even called into the office a few days ago."
"Can't I suddenly realize I'm a child prodigy?"
"you!"
"Alright, Wang Jie, if you're not convinced, then you can beat him in the next exam."
"Hmph." Wang Jie snorted coldly, refusing to look at Fan Yang.
However, there were some doubts about Pan Yang's grades, so the teacher kept him behind after school that afternoon.
The grade head was also there, and a group of teachers surrounded Pan Yang.
Pan Yang said he was really panicked.
001: "If you didn't have such a blank expression, I could believe you were genuinely panicked."
"Teacher, I swear I didn't cheat."
"Lin, it's not that we don't trust you, we're just a little curious," the homeroom teacher explained.
“Yes, your grades are really bad, how did you manage that?” another teacher chimed in.
"I suddenly realized something." Pan Yang said without thinking, his expression showing no panic but rather calmness.
Afterwards, a group of teachers watched as Pan Yang did the problem again before they stopped doubting him.
Finally, the head of the grade looked at Pan Yang and said, "Reflect on your actions."
"..." Pan Yang silently took out the self-criticism and handed it to the head of the grade.
"Alright, let's go."
It was almost dark when Pan Yang walked out of the school gate.
There weren't many people on the street, but the streetlights made it less scary.
"Why are you running away, you little brat?"
"Ha, you wish you could owe money and not pay it back."
"I don't have money, but if I did, I would definitely give it to you."
"It's too late."
Several threatening voices came from the alley.
001: "Hidden character Zhou Yang has been detected. Please help him live a wonderful life."
"No." Pan Yang immediately spoke up; another hidden figure!
"Host, you can't refuse~"
You can't afford to play this game!
001 just gave up entirely: "So what if I can't handle this?!"
"Heh, system."
Following the sound, Pan Yang saw three or four dark figures surrounding another person.
"That one leading the group is Zhou Yang, right?"
"Please don't deceive yourself, the one being surrounded is the hidden figure."
Helpless, Pan Yang walked over, and the group looked at him and said, "Kid, I think you're still a student. Mind your own business and get out of here."
Pan Yang pointed at the person half-lying on the ground: "I want him. Let him go and I'll leave."
"Hey! Young man, are you here to cause trouble? Do you know what he did? He owes money."
"I told you I'd pay you back when I got it." Zhou Yang wiped a smear of red from the corner of his mouth.
"Stop talking nonsense. You think you don't have money? I saw you buying books this morning. You have money to buy books but not money to pay us back?" The man pressed on Zhou Yang's shoulder to prevent him from getting up.
Pan Yang: System, it's not like I have to take action now.
"Let him go," Pan Yang repeated.
"Kid, didn't you understand? Mind your own business."
"Oh." The boy's indifferent voice left the group unsure of what to do.
"What are you doing? A group of you bullying two people, aren't you?!" A person suddenly appeared, also wearing a school uniform.
"The time has finally come for me to uphold justice. You guys run first and leave it to me. These mortals can't beat me."
"..."
Pan Yang looked at him speechlessly. Was this kid a chuunibyou (a person with delusions of grandeur)?
Pan Yang sighed, "It's troublesome: Stay away."
After saying that, he rushed forward without hesitation.
A few minutes later, the group of people lay on the ground howling in agony.
"Brother, you're amazing! I see you have extraordinary talent, how about we become sworn brothers?" the chuunibyou teenager said to Pan Yang.
Pan Yang ignored him and looked at Zhou Yang, who was sitting on the ground: "Can you get up?"
"Yes," Zhou Yang replied, standing up while leaning against the wall. "Thank you."
"How should I thank you?" Pan Yang blurted out without thinking.
001: "Host! You need to express your humility, generosity, and kindness! Let him feel the warmth of life!"
"..." Pan Yang stared at Zhou Yang and slowly said, "You're welcome."
The chuunibyou (middle school syndrome) boy looked at Zhou Yang and said, "Oh dear, you're so badly injured. Should we take you to the infirmary?"
Zhou Yang glanced at the two boys and said, "No need." Then he prepared to leave.
Pan Yang watched him walk away, then looked at the person lying on the ground and took out his phone to call 110.
The two of them went in together to get to know each other.
Then all that could be heard from Fan Yang was the chatter of a chuunibyou (middle school syndrome) kid.
"Brother, are you really not considering becoming sworn brothers with me? Do you think I'm not good enough? Let me tell you, my family has a genealogy!"
"Our family is called Fenghetang, and we have several branch families."
"Let me tell you, you won't lose out by becoming sworn brothers with me. I'm a reincarnation of a god, and I'll definitely remember you, brother, when I achieve great things in the future."
"Do you not trust me? It doesn't matter. We will declare to heaven and earth that I swear on my divine status."
"..." Pan Yang took a deep breath, trying to maintain his calm expression.
The policeman glanced at the two men and chuckled, "Alright, you can go now. Be careful."
"Okay, thank you, officer." The chuunibyou boy stood up and tried to grab Pan Yang, but Pan Yang dodged him.
It took a lot of effort for Fan Yang to shake him off; he was really fed up.
But the next day, looking at the immature teenagers at the school gate, Pan Yang fell into deep thought.
Why do they all have to wait for me at the school gate?!
Pan Yang decisively chose to climb the wall, and finally made it over...
"Why are you climbing over the wall again?" The head of the grade caught Pan Yang once more.
"A thousand-word self-criticism, you'll read it during the flag-raising ceremony next Monday."
"..."
Pan Yang returned to the classroom with a gloomy face.
But what was suffocating was that he saw the chuunibyou (middle school syndrome) boy in their class. Fan Yang stepped out and glanced at the classroom to make sure he hadn't entered the wrong one.
"Hey! What a coincidence, bro!"
Pan Yang took a deep breath, walked in, and sat down in his seat.
Then, the chuunibyou boy skillfully pulled out the chair next to Pan Yang: "You're here too. I didn't notice you before. What a coincidence!"
"Are you in this class?"
"Yeah, I've been a bit sick and only come here for a few months these past few years. I'm in my final year of high school now and my condition has stabilized, so I'm coming back. Don't worry, brother, I'm a good student. If there's anything you don't understand, just ask me."
"By the way, what's your name? My name is Zhou Li."
"Lin Panyang." Panyang said, taking a novel out of the desk drawer and reading it expressionlessly.
"So you're Lin Panyang. Being number one in your age group is impressive. No wonder you were chosen by me. You're a promising young man."
"..."
