"How did you do on the test?" Lu Xiaoxiao came over to look at her phone. Seeing that she had four A's, she smiled and said, "That's amazing. All A's. Many people in our class can't do that."
Lu Xiaoxiao also got all A's, but she only took two subjects. Last semester, Xia Chenxi was preparing for three liberal arts exams while also working hard to improve her science grades. The pressure on her was definitely greater than for others.
And three of her four A's were in liberal arts. If she were placed in a science class, or even a key class, she wouldn't be able to get A's in all three liberal arts subjects.
"I will work hard to get all A's in this semester's final exam."
"System, has my next exam goal for this semester come out?" Xia Chenxi asked in his heart.
A system interface popped up in front of her, followed by the system's voice: "Host, starting this semester, the system has added a tiered reward for your exam goals. Please look at the interface."
The first monthly exam: A reward of 30,000 yuan will be given to those who rank within the top 60, and a reward of 50,000 yuan will be given to those who rank within the top 50.
Midterm exam: A reward of 50,000 yuan will be given to those who are among the top 50, and a reward of 80,000 yuan will be given to those who are among the top 30.
Second monthly exam: 80,000 yuan reward for the top 30, 100,000 yuan reward for the top 20.
Final exam: A reward of RMB 100,000 will be given to those who finish within the top 20, and a reward of RMB 150,000 will be given to those who finish within the top 10.
If the minimum reward ranking for each exam cannot be achieved, the reward amount for that ranking will be deducted from the host wallet.
When Xia Chenxi saw so many “0”s, it felt like all they saw were small coins!
She ranked over 70 in her last exam, which actually means she is not far from being in the top 60. After all, there are many students in a middle school, and rising in ranking by ten or twenty places means an increase of 6-10 points.
However, the first monthly exam of this semester covered a very small part of the exam, so the content that Qin Yifeng had tutored her with during the previous holidays was completely useless.
"System, when I start my final review for my senior year, do I have to be in the top ten in every exam?" Xia Chenxi asked nervously, "Can you show me the rest of your mission goals? You won't want me to be first, will you?"
Although her ultimate goal was to become the top scorer in science, according to the ranking requirements of the system, if she was required to rank first next semester, she would probably be deducted a lot of money, right?
"Considering that the host was reborn in the first semester of the second year of high school, and that the knowledge points of the first year of high school are not solid, the minimum requirement for the first semester will be fixed at the top ten starting from the final review of the third year of high school. The higher the ranking, the more rewards there will be. The host will be required to be in the top three in the second semester."
In other words, you have to be in the top ten in the first semester of senior year, and be in the top three in the second semester?
Xia Chenxi felt a little pressured. The top ten would definitely be easier than the top three. After all, Qin Yifeng and Lu Xiaoxiao were there. These two had been ranked first and second for ten thousand years in their previous life. In other words, in the second semester of her senior year, her score could only be slightly lower than Lu Xiaoxiao's, otherwise she would be deducted money.
According to the fact that the top ten will receive a reward of 150,000, I'm afraid that if you fail to complete the first three tasks, at least 200,000 will be deducted, and it may be even more!
"Yes, host. The rewards have been doubled now. Just like the previous extra task required you to be the top scorer in science, if you can become the top scorer in science, the reward will become 600,000. Isn't this a generous reward?"
Xia Chenxi was about to vomit blood. "The reward is generous, but if I don't pass the exam, you will definitely deduct 600,000 from me, right?"
"This is a natural host. After all, the system is not a charity!" The system's voice came, "Host, please work hard and try to make money now. In this way, even if you fail to complete the task in the future, you can still give money to the system."
Xia Chenxi: “…” Why does it sound like I’m making money just to give you a deduction?
The class schedule for the new semester is different from that of the previous semester. Perhaps taking into account the students' study pressure, there are no art and music classes this semester. In addition to Chinese, mathematics, English, physics, chemistry, biology, and general information, there is only one physical education class every day for students to relax and exercise.
Last semester, there were only two physical education classes a week. This semester, considering the physical fitness of students, the whole school changed to one physical education class a day. Originally, the school wanted to extend the break time between two classes to allow students to run exercises, but considering that some teachers might extend the class, it was decided to keep other courses as usual and just add a physical education class every day.
The increase in physical education classes will inevitably take up time from other main subjects, so the class times have also been changed. The four morning classes remain the same, the lunch break is shortened, the afternoon classes start earlier and there are five classes in the afternoon, and the dinner time is thirty minutes later than usual.
The school also requires physical education teachers to supervise students running during daily physical education classes, with girls running at least 800 meters and boys running at least 1,200 meters. If there is a long-distance running test on the same day, you can directly count it into the test. If there is an assessment on the same day, you can do the assessment first and then run.
Make sure all students in No. 1 Middle School get exercise every day!
Xia Chenxi thinks running is nothing, but many girls feel depressed about it.
In the past, the amount of exercise a middle school student does every day is roughly walking back and forth from the dormitory to the teaching building, and from the teaching building to the cafeteria, plus two physical education classes a week. Classes like music and art have special classrooms and laboratories, which require walking to change classrooms.
Therefore, students’ physical fitness is not high. Every time they take the 800-meter physical education test, many students can barely pass or even fail.
Suddenly having to run 800 meters every day is really tiring!
"I heard that we have to run in the playground when it's not raining, and in the small gymnasium when it's raining. Anyway, we have to run enough every day. The teacher didn't ask how fast or slow we should run, but we have to finish it. But I always feel tired after running 800 meters."
"It's okay. You may not be used to it at first, but you will get used to it later. Just think of it as exercise."
When gathering for physical education class, because there were so many classes in No. 1 Middle School, Class 2101 was assigned to the football field for class.
The football field is the same as the playground, with one lap being 400 meters. The girls divided themselves into two groups. The first team, which ran slower, started first, and the second pair, which ran faster, followed.
After running 800 meters, many girls were already out of breath. Seeing their physical strength, the physical education teacher shook his head helplessly, "You are so tired at such a young age after running 800 meters. What will you do when you get older? You must exercise well in your daily physical education classes."
Xia Yanran was so tired that she sat on the ground. The weather was still quite cold. After running, she just felt her throat was very dry and her clothes were very hot, so she took off her coat immediately.
She looked at Xia Chenxi and saw that she was just breathing slightly and didn't look too tired. She felt a little jealous at the moment. People like her should be made to run 3,000 meters every day!
"At the beginning of this semester, we have more physical education classes, so we are not so nervous about the exams. For the items that need to be tested, we usually give you enough training time. Because we have just started running every day, many girls are not used to running 800 meters, so they will feel tired. Let's start with the easy ones. Now everyone go to the equipment room and get a mat, and we will do some stretching first."
Everyone went to the equipment room to get mats and sat on them. After following the teacher to do a set of stretching, the teacher said, "In this class, we will train sit-ups. It's not a test, but you should treat it as a test. The timer is one minute, and you have to do a few sets."
How many groups? ? ?
Didn't we say we'd start with something easy? Teacher, are you teasing us?
Xia Chenxi and Lu Xiaoxiao are in a group. Both of them can do sit-ups very quickly, about fifty in a minute.
The number of groups the physical education teacher said really were the number of groups. One set was counted when two people finished. Everyone did three sets in total. Girls like Chen Wen, who were not so good at sit-ups, had a red face and disheveled hair after three sets, looking like she had been abused.
Just when everyone thought they could take a break, the teacher said, "We still have a lot of time in this class, let's do the relay race next."
Everyone: “…”
After the physical education class, the girls in Class 1 felt as tired as if they had just run 3,000 meters.
Back in the classroom, everyone lay down exhausted. Even Lu Xiaoxiao found the amount of exercise a little too much to handle.
Lu Xiaoxiao was a very fast sprinter, but her physical strength was not particularly good. In the entire class, the only girl who looked normal was Xia Chenxi.
The boys were not in good condition after they came back, and they all fell down one after another.
Everyone rested for a few minutes, and when the next class started, they all perked up and studied hard.
When we returned to the dormitory that night, perhaps because we were too tired during the day, everyone slept very soundly and the dormitory building became quiet early.
The next morning, when Xia Chenxi and Lu Xiaoxiao went to have breakfast, they found that there were many more people in the cafeteria than before.
In the past, they usually arrived early to avoid the crowds when having breakfast in the cafeteria. I don’t know why everyone got up so early today.
The two bought breakfast and looked for a seat for a long time. They saw Zhao Fangcheng and discovered that there were a few empty seats opposite him, so they went over and sat down.
"You guys got up so early too." Zhao Fangcheng was eating sticky rice. Seeing them sitting down, he smiled silly and said, "Did you get tortured by the physical education teacher yesterday and went back to the dormitory and went to bed early at night, so you got up early today too?"
Xia Chenxi, Lu Xiaoxiao: “…” So this is why you got up early.
"I was so tired yesterday that I went back to the dormitory, took a shower and went to sleep. Today I woke up naturally at six o'clock. My roommate went to bed earlier than me and had already finished breakfast and went to class to study by himself."
Xia Chenxi took a bite of the bun and said, "It seems that exercising more is also good for you."
I am so tired during the day, shouldn’t I go to bed early when I get back to the dormitory?
After having breakfast, Zhao Fangcheng sat and waited for them, chatting with them from time to time.
A class monitor sitting at the next table felt a little uncomfortable when he saw the people talking and laughing over there...
Back in the classroom, there were indeed more people today than usual. Seeing that everyone was so serious, Xia Chenxi quickly took out the 53rd grade to do review exercises.
She will be among the top 60 in the next monthly exam! You must not lose to your classmates!
After four weeks, the students of No. 1 Middle School had become accustomed to being tortured by the physical education teacher every day and no longer felt exhausted after physical education class. This Thursday and Friday are the first monthly exams of this semester. After the exams, registration for this semester’s art festival will begin.
The arts and literature committee member of the class was worried. Everyone was studying hard, but few people signed up for the art festival, especially the boys in the class who knew few things and there were few girls. In fact, not many people participated in the competition.
As a bookworm, Xia Chenxi had no mood to care about the art festival or the exams at the moment!
After two days of monthly exams, I went home for a weekend and then returned to school, where registration for the art festival officially began.
After two consecutive days, almost no students from Class 2101 signed up to participate. Finally, the cultural and arts committee member had to tell the class teacher about this. After thinking about it, the class teacher thought that in addition to the chorus, both boys and girls should have a group dance, and the rest of the vocal music, painting, paper-cutting, hosting, etc. could just be picked randomly to make up the numbers.
Everyone has to make a contribution to the festival.
After all, I no longer participate in art festivals after entering my third year of high school.
Xia Chenxi finally thought for a long time and decided to choose dancing.
Because the head teacher and the physical education teacher had discussed it, the girl group dance would take time to practice during physical education class. She didn't want to spend time training privately, so it would be perfect if she could use physical education class to exercise and dance at the same time.
That afternoon, after the arts committee selected the female group dancers, they downloaded the video. All the girls in the class took some time to do a few simple moves, and then six people who danced the best were selected.
Xia Chenxi passed the test successfully. Lu Xiaoxiao didn't like dancing and didn't participate. When Xia Yanran saw that Xia Chenxi passed, she immediately followed suit and brought her two little sisters with her.
During the evening study session that day, the results of the first monthly exam were announced. After Xia Chenxi had dinner and returned to the classroom, he went to the bulletin board to check his exam ranking.
Ranked 19th in the class and 56th in the section.
"Congratulations to the host for completing this exam task. The reward has been distributed to the host's wallet."
When Xia Chenxi saw the system interface that popped up in front of her, and the wallet balance showed 110,000, she immediately felt happy.
However, Xia Yanran, who was standing behind her and also looking at the results on the bulletin board, felt unwell.
How come this country bumpkin has made progress again!
After the other students who were gathered there left, Xia Yanran carefully looked at the last few test results.
This section is specifically for posting everyone's test scores, starting from the first monthly exam in the first semester of the second year of high school, and every score is listed here.
Then when she took a look, Xia Yanran realized something was wrong.
Xia Chenxi made progress in almost every exam. Although it was only a little progress, it was still progress.
And every time I would improve by about twenty places.
Even though being in the twenties only means a few points, it's an improvement every time. This is too much!
What's more, she always gets first place in English, which is a bit too scary.
At this rate, will we be ranked within the top 40 next time? Next time more than 20? And the top ten? Finally rush to be the first?
No, that's impossible. That country bumpkin only got such good grades because he came to No. 1 Middle School to study in his second year of high school. Even if the Chinese and English exams have nothing to do with the content taught, but for math and comprehensive science, when she starts reviewing the content of her freshman year in her senior year, her grades will definitely drop when she takes the exams!
So there is no way she is afraid of such heights! Even if Qin Yifeng gave her tutoring, it would be useless. What could be taught in such a short winter vacation?
I'm afraid that when Xia Chenxi, the infatuated girl, saw Qin Yifeng, her attention was all on his face instead of on his studies!
After Xia Yanran comforted herself in her heart, she went back to her seat to study.
The next day, the six selected girls went to the dance studio to dance during physical education class.
"We need to learn some of the dance moves first. After learning, we can see who dances best and choose the C position." The cultural and arts committee member said, putting the video on the projector.
The girls danced according to the instructions on the projector.
After one class, you can learn several movements. The next step is to rely on your memory and whether you can connect the movements.
The cultural and arts committee member looked at everyone and asked, "Who wants to be the center?"
Xia Yanran raised her hand, "Me!"
Xia Chenxi leaned against the wall and didn't want to choose this position, but she didn't expect the girl next to her to say, "I think Xia Chenxi dances very well, how about a competition?"
Xia Chenxi: “……???” Girl, are you serious?
The girl next to her looked at her expectantly, "Come on! You dance really well!"
Xia Chenxi: “…”
"Then you two should compete to see who dances better." The arts committee member said with a smile.
When the music starts, the two people will dance the dance they learned before. When the two people stand together, the contrast in their dancing will be very obvious.
The arts committee member watched and felt that Xia Chenxi was indeed dancing better. She danced with greater strength. In comparison, Xia Yanran, who looked perfectly fine when viewed alone, seemed to lack strength when standing next to her.
After the two finished dancing, there were four people left to choose.
The arts committee member and the two girls who had previously proposed Xia Chenxi both chose Xia Chenxi, and the remaining two sisters of Xia Yanran both chose Xia Yanran.
2:2 draw.
"In that case, let's have two center positions. We can switch positions when the time comes so that the two people standing in the middle will spend about the same amount of time." said the cultural and arts committee member.
Xia Chenxi didn't care, but Xia Yanran felt humiliated. She glared at Xia Chenxi fiercely, sat down and complained to her little sister in a low voice, "Who dances better, me or her?"
"Of course it's you." One of them said quickly.
The other remained silent.
In fact, anyone with a discerning eye could see that Xia Yanran’s dancing skills were not strong enough, but selfishly speaking, she would definitely vote for Xia Yanran, with whom she had a better relationship.
After all, it's just an art festival. There's no reward for winning, and it doesn't matter if you lose, so the voting doesn't need to be fair.
"What are those two looking at each other? They actually chose Xia Chenxi and not me." Xia Yanran pouted in dissatisfaction and looked at Xia Chenxi over there with disgust in her eyes. She felt good about herself and thought it was impossible for her to dance as well as Xia Chenxi and that she was definitely better than her.
It's already March, but because it's hot during dancing, everyone wears a thin sweater underneath. Xia Yanran looked at Xia Chenxi, then at herself, and said, "It's probably because her sweater is more fitted, and she looks thinner overall. Next time I wear a slim-fitting sweater, I'm sure I'll dance better than her!"
After the cultural and arts committee member arranged everyone's positions, everyone looked at it and thought it was okay. The day's training was over, so they prepared to go back to the classroom.
There is only two weeks of dance practice time, but fortunately, it only requires dancing and no singing. On the day of the art festival competition, everyone needs to put on makeup, and some classes will have their own competition items.
Coincidentally, Class 2101 was assigned to the group dance competition.
The school stipulates that teachers in the school will serve as referees for each competition.
For example, for a painting competition, art teachers will be arranged to judge, and for a music competition, music teachers will naturally be arranged to judge. When there are not enough teachers to judge, some teachers from the main subjects who have studied the content of the competition will be selected to serve as judges.
For the dance competition, several teachers in the school who have studied dance were selected to serve as judges.
The competition venue will be decorated by Class 2101. Students who are not participating in the art festival need to arrange competition matters at the competition site on that day.
As the monitor of Class 2101, Qin Yifeng is naturally one of the responsible persons.
When she saw a group of girls coming in with makeup and fancy clothes on, she looked away in embarrassment.
When he shifted his gaze, he saw Xia Chenxi standing inside.
Xia Chenxi was wearing a slim and beautiful dance costume, had a simple hairstyle, and put on makeup. Her peach blossom eyes, which already looked sparkling, looked even more beautiful at this moment.
Xia Chenxi seemed to notice his gaze and turned her head slightly to look at him with a hint of confusion in her eyes.
Qin Yifeng's ears turned red when she looked at him. He withdrew his gaze and didn't dare to continue looking...
Xia Chenxi: “……?” I didn’t tease you, why are your ears red?
Xia Chenxi's eyes rolled, and suddenly he had evil intentions. He waved at him, "Squad leader, come here."
Qin Yifeng was puzzled when he heard the voice, and walked towards her stiffly, "What's wrong?"
"Do I look good today?" Xia Chenxi looked at him expectantly.
Qin Yifeng's face turned red, "It looks good."
"What's so good about it?" Xia Chenxi was curious.
Qin Yifeng pursed his lips and said, "I can't really explain it. It doesn't feel much different from usual, but it just looks better."
Xia Chenxi felt that he should be a straight man.
